This paper presents a sound field analysis method which uses numerical solving of the wave equation. The wave equation is described, its analytical and numerical solutions, and its application in sound field analysis. Finite difference method is used for solving the equation. Comparison of analytical and numerical solutions is shown, together with a discussion on convergence and stability of the numerical solution. Finally, the sound field simulator based on numerical solving of wave equation is presented. Applicability of sound field simulator for developing object detection algorithms is also analyzed.

This paper presents the distributed control system for elevators (DECS). Based on the characteristics of the today installed elevator systems, the electric traction elevator has been chosen for this paper. Conventional elevator control systems (ECS) have several disadvantages compared to modern control systems (large number of cables, safety issues, etc.). An alternative to conventional ECS is the DECS. A DECS based on the CAN (controller Area Network) protocol is presented in this paper. The presented ECS consists of three modules: CU Elevator (CU - control Unit), CU Cabin, CU Floor. The mentioned modules, control principles and implementation methods based on the PIC 18F458 microcontroller are presented in detail. A description of the CAN protocol design with message scheduling on the bus is given. Messages with an 11 bit identifier without a data field have been used for the distributed control system synthesis. The time analysis of bus availability/traffic demonstrates the adequacy of the distributed control system Based on the defined messages and 5 presented modes of operation, an algorithm of operation has been formed for every control system module. Finally experimental results are presented that have been obtained from a developed CAN based elevator control system. The conducted tests have confirmed the functionality of the elevator control system.

The saving electric energy is an important factor of economic growth, which indicates sustainable growth of the nation's economy. The saving electric energy is one of the main priorities of energy strategy in Albania. One the most important factor there is the efficiency of electric drive. It has great impact on energy security, local and regional air pollution reduction and environment. Actually, Albania is on phase of technology changes in all fields, including industry and service sectors. The best way there is replacement of low efficient electric drive with energy efficient one according to the EU directives. This replacement brings huge potentials of energy saving and globalization impact to the country's economy.

In this paper a novel decentralized robust control design scheme is proposed, considering the structured uncertain system matrix with a constant part (typical case for a system with dynamic controller as PID); the resulting robust control design is based on developed robust stability LMI condition which is less conservative than those from literature. In the following we use parameter dependent Lyapunov function and structured auxiliary matrices to receive “structured robust stability condition” which is the base for robust controller design. All developments are performed in general formulation including both discrete-time and continuous-time systems.

This paper describes the parameter optimization of fuzzy logic control (FLC) of FES-assisted indoor rowing exercise (FES-rowing) using multi objective genetic algorithm (MOGA). The indoor rowing exercise is introduced as a total body exercise for rehabilitation of function of lower extremities through the application of functional electrical stimulation (FES). FLC is used to control the knee and elbow trajectories for smooth rowing manoeuvre. MOGA is implemented in Matlab with a dynamic simulation model of indoor rowing exercise is developed using Visual Nastran (vN4D) software environment. MOGA is used to optimize the FES-rowing with two objective functions specified that are i) to minimize the mean squared error of knee angle trajectory and ii) to minimize the total electrical stimulation required by the muscles. In view of good results obtained, it is concluded that MOGA is able to obtain the optimal design of FLC for FES-rowing with two conflicting objectives.

The paper discusses the problems of design and implementation of three-dimensional simulator for control of laboratory model helicopter. The research is realized under student project at the Department of automaticcontrol and Electronics of faculty of electricalengineering in Sarajevo. For this purpose the HUMUSOFT CE150 laboratory helicopter model was used. In order to verify various control algorithms the 3D simulator is designed. Simulator was developed in Matlab/Simulink environment using the Virtual Reality Modelling Language (VRML). Three-dimensional helicopter was built by using 3D Studio Max script. The quality of this simulator is tested during the helicopter motion with PID controllers.

Digital image copyrights and image authentication draw a great attention specially in critical image communications. This paper presents a proposal for a new encoder-decoder, which we call SecEncoDeco, for securing JPEG images. An extra stage of security is embedded in the traditional JPEG codec. This security stage uses the Secure Hill cipher technique. This encryption technique has many advantages over the traditional Hill cipher. The Safe Time of the Secure Hill cipher is deduced and presented in detail. Implementation of the proposed method is built based on MATLAB. Complete evaluation for the proposed codec is performed which indicates the effectiveness of the proposed secure codec for image copyright protection.

This paper presents a simulation of bipedal locomotion to control the stimulation pulses of functional electrical stimulation (FES) for activating muscles for paraplegic walking with spring brake orthosis (SBO). The work is a first effort towards restoring natural like swing phase in paraplegic gait through a new hybrid orthosis, referred to as spring brake orthosis (SBO). This mechanism simplifies the control task and results in smooth motion and more-natural like trajectory produced by the flexion reflex for gait in spinal cord injured subjects. The study is carried out with a model of humanoid with wheel walker using the Visual Nastran (Vn4D) dynamic simulation software. Stimulated muscle model of quadriceps is developed for knee extension. Proportional integral derivative (PID) control is developed in Matlab/Simulink to regulate the muscle stimulation pulse-width required to drive FES-assisted walking gait and the computed motion is visualised in graphic animation from Vn4D. The results show that SBO can reduce torque and stimulation pulses required for FES-assisted paraplegic walking with wheel walker and PID control is found to be appropriate controller for the leg extension.
