The paper presents the application of the Cole-Cole model for determining the runs of the return voltage of the paper-oil insulation sample through a computer simulation. Different insulation conditions were simulated through an adequate selection of parameters alpha and tau of the Cole-Cole model. For calculation purposes, a series-parallel substitute scheme, obtained through approximation of a discrete characteristic operator impedance Z a of the model applied, was used. The diagnostics of the simulated insulation condition was based on the analysis of a few selected parameters of the return voltage, obtained from time characteristics.

Existing information systems often lack support to crisis and emergency situations. In such scenarios, the involved actors often engage in ad hoc collaborations necessary to understand and respond to the emerging events. We propose a collaboration model and a prototype aiming to improve the consistency and effectiveness of emergent work activities. Our approach defends the requirement to construct shared situation awareness (SA). To support SA, we developed a collaborative artifact named situation matrixes (SM), which relates different situation dimensions (SD) of the crisis/emergency scenario. A method was also developed to construct and evaluate concrete SM and SD. This method was applied in two organizations' IT service desk teams, which often have to deal with emergency situations. The target organizations found our approach very relevant in organizing their response to emergencies.

In digital system, a full-closed-loop configuration using a tachometers and an analog-digital converter with low resolution results in bad speed control and therefore influences the positioning performance in a high-precision positioning system. However, on the other hand, speed information cannot be accurately obtained through the encoder using traditional estimations. In this paper, we proposed a speed estimator - Kalman Filter by getting the position information through the encoder. The rules of selecting key parameters such as noise covariance in Kalman Filtering were modified to avoid trial-and-error. Experimental results in a control point of view showed a good performance both in normal and low speed range so that a full-closed-loop high-precision servo drive system could be achieved with a low-cost configuration.

The aging effect can be understood as a deterioration of a machine (tool) that increases a time required to manufacture products. It is highly desirable to minimize the negative influence of this effect, which in case of CNC machine is usually compensated by the increasing of its working speed. Therefore, although a tool efficiency decreases the processing times of jobs (products) can be still kept on the desired level. On the other hand, the increasing of a working speed cases the faster decreasing of a durability of a tool and its premature failure. In this paper, we focus on optimization problems in manufacturing systems, where occur the tool wear of CNC drilling/cutting machine and its compensation at the cost of a durability of a tool. We model such problems by single machine scheduling problems with the aging effect and additional resources with two criteria: time criterion (makespan and maximum lateness) and resource consumption penalty. The objectives are the minimization of time criteria under a given resource consumption and the minimization of resource consumption under a given time criteria. Computational analysis of these problems together with solution algorithms are provided.

In this paper we discuss the problem of redundancies and data dependencies in XML data while an XML schema is to be normalized. Normalization is one of the main tasks in relational database design, where 3NF or BCNF, is to be reached. However, neither of them is ideal: 3NF preserves dependencies but may not always eliminate redundancies, BCNF on the contrary-always eliminates redundancies but may not preserve constraints. We discuss the possibility of achieving both redundancy-free and dependency preserving form of XML schema. We show how the XML normal form can be obtained for a class of XML schemas and a class of XML functional dependencies.

In mechanism and machine design, the notion of serial kinematics machine (SKM), parallel kinematics machine (PKM) and hybrid kinematics machine (HKM) is well understood. In this paper, we introduce a fourth type of kinematics machine, known as quotient kinematics machine(QKM). A QKM generating a subgroup motion G consists of two mechanisms (or motion modules) acting in unison, one synthesizing a subgroup H of G, and another that of a complement of G/H. Apparently, the two motion modules of a QKM have simpler kinematic structures than that of a SKM, PKM or HKM with the same motion type G, and thus is expected to have performance advantages in terms of stiffness (speed and accuracy), modularity and etc, over its SKM/PKM/HKM counterparts. The formulation of the QKM concept and its analysis and synthesis are considered in this paper.

We investigated what influences the average luminance level (ALL) of displayed images, screen illuminance, and viewers ages had on the preferred luminance of LCDs. Twenty young subjects (mean age: 21.8) and 24 seniors (mean age: 68.9) adjusted the luminance of a 17-inch 1000: 1 LCD monitor to their preferred levels under different experimental conditions. The results indicate that the preferred luminance of LCDs corresponded to the following formula: Lp=k x ALLα. This is where Lp is the peak white luminance of the LCDs, k is a constant, and ALL is the average luminance level of the displayed images. Here, α is a constant from -0.19 to -0.20 for the seniors and from -0.14 to -0.17 for the young subjects. The influences of age-related changes in vision and ambient lighting on the luminance requirements for LCDs are also discussed. These results can be applied to the design of luminance-control systems for LCDs.

This paper considers problem of approximation of admissible trajectory for skid-steering mobile robot at kinematic level. Nonholonomic constraints at kinematic and dynamic level are taken into account. The trajectory tracking control problem is solved using practical stabilizer using tunable oscillator with novel method of tuning. The stability result is proved using Lyapunov analysis and takes into account uncertainty of kinematics. In order to ensure stable motion of the robot the scaling method is used. Theoretical considerations are illustrated by simulation results.

This paper studies the time-delay effect on the equivalent control based sliding mode control. Conditions to guarantee the boundedness of the control system steady states under the time delayed equivalent control based sliding mode control are obtained. Maximum upper bound of the delay time to guarantee boundedness is estimated. Simulations are conducted to verify the theoretical results.
