The life of a machine may be divided in two main periods: virtual - the time of designing the machine, and real - the time of production and exploitation. The quality of machine exploitation depends mainly on the form...

This paper describes a methodology to identify all the parameters of a quadrotor system including the structure parameters and rotor assembly parameters. A CAD model is developed using SOLIDWORKS to calculate the mass moment of inertia and all the missing geometrical parameters. A three simple test rigs are built and used to identify the relationship between the motor input Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) signal and the angular velocity, the thrust force, and drag moment of the rotors. A simple algorithm is implemented to an inertial measurement unit (IMU) for estimating the attitude and altitude of the quadrotor. Experimental set up is built to verify and test the accuracy of these proposed techniques. A controller is designed based on the feedback linearization method such that the quadrotor attitude can be stabilized. Finally, the experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed techniques and the controller design.
The rules given in the ISO/IEC Guide 98 are used in the calculations of uncertainty. The type A standard uncertainty defined by the standard deviation of the mean. It is usually determined by means of the classic vari...

This paper covers the authors’ recent research in the area of evolutionary design optimisation in electronic application domain (Evolvable Hardware). This will be also presented in the context of biologically inspired systems where Evolvable Hardware is concerned with evolutionary synthesis of self-healing systems and potentially hardware capable of online adaptation to dynamically changing environment. We will also illustrate how EAs can produce novel and unintuitive design solutions, and possibly new design principles. The novelty of this research project addresses this compelling change in the traditional landscape of the associated research disciplines by seeking to provide a novel biologically inspired mechanism to support the design optimisation of self-healing architectures, that is Evolvable-Embryonics.

This paper presents a novel technique for long survival observation of Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) inside Environmental-SEM (E-SEM) for nanomanipulations. We have developed the nanorobotic manipulation system inside an Environmental-Scanning Electron Microscope (E-SEM) integrated optical microscope (OM) for nanobiomanipulation platform. Our platform provides a real-time high resolution image under water-contained condition in nano-meter high-magnification image. One of the difficulties on the E-SEM observation is to maintain the biological sample on survival condition in long time. In this paper, we propose a coating method on the C. elegans or sample substrate for maintain the survival condition to keep in wet-condition. The proposed technique is useful to operate the nanomanipulation on C. elegans body, for example nano-injection of functional micro-nano beads as demonstrated in this paper.

Pneumatic systems are well known for their advantages, simplicity and can be applied in various industrial applications. This paper presents a comparative study of tuning methods on Proportional-Integral (PI) controller for position control performance both in simulation and in real system. A PI controller designed by optimization with the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed and its output is compared with the Ziegler-Nichols (Z-N) formula and manual (trial and error) results. Performance assessment of the tuned controllers was performed in MATLAB Simulink. It was observed that the controller designed using PSO gives better results and performance compared to the Z-N formula and manual tuning in simulation and real-time.
