The mathematic model of spatial resolution measurement area of a 3-D active vision system is developed from the calibrated system parameters. Using the derived model, error of correspondence matching between digital micro-mirrors device (DMD) and charge coupled device (CCD) camera is analyzed. Moreover, a performance index, expressed in terms of correspondence uncertainty, is used for evaluation of the upper and lower bound of resolution. In order to verify the proposed evaluation approach, a precision surface measurement system is established and calibrated. Our analysis shows that the upper part of the measurement area has the smallest correspondence uncertainty, which agrees well with the real physical arrangement. The variation of correspondence uncertainty within the measurement area is around 60.96%. Furthermore, based on the theoretical analysis of uncertainty bounds, an experimental measurement on gauge block was carried out and validated the method.","PeriodicalId":151961,"journal":{"name":"Jsme International Journal Series C-mechanical Systems Machine Elements and Manufacturing","volume":"122 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121257546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This approach solves the inverse of the nonlinearity without requiring its I/O relations as a one-on-one map, which is necessary for the current inverse-model method. By introducing the concept of the equivalent gain, the proposed method systematically finds the inverse model of the nonlinearity by solving a zero-finding problem. Discussions on the existence and uniqueness of the solution are given in this paper. A simulation example is presented to demonstrate how the task in finding the inverse of a complicated nonlinearity can be simplified by the proposed method. Experimental evaluations on a position servo system with conspicuous friction reveal that the dither-smoothed nonlinearities are still nonlinear, and compensating action like the proposed method is necessary for control systems using the dithering technology.","PeriodicalId":151961,"journal":{"name":"Jsme International Journal Series C-mechanical Systems Machine Elements and Manufacturing","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130391423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We modeled a fly, Drosophila, by using aerodynamics, body dynamics, and control theory. The modeled virtual insect performs free flight in virtual space generated by a computer. We simulated the free flight of a virtual insect having two dimensions and two degrees of freedom. The flight pass and flight velocity of the virtual insect during a free flight were calculated by Newton’s equations of motion. The aerodynamic force generated by the flapping motion of the virtual insect was estimated by using the blade element theory. An optimal regulator theory was used as a control law. The flight pass from the initial position to the target position and the wing motion was obtained from the results of the free flight simulation of the virtual insect. We can presume the wing motion of an insect in free flight by using the flight simulation of a virtual insect. These results have suggested that the approach based on the simulation is effective in elucidating the free flight of an insect.","PeriodicalId":151961,"journal":{"name":"Jsme International Journal Series C-mechanical Systems Machine Elements and Manufacturing","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121509930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The silicon surface area irradiated by focused ion beam (FIB) was selectively etched in HF, whereas the non-irradiated area was scarcely etched, and con-sequently, a concave nanostructure was fabricated on the irradiated area. To control the depth of the nanostructure, the depth dependence on ion irradiation parameters was investigated. As a result, it was found that the depth of the irradiated area can be controlled by changing ion irradiation parameters, such as dose and ion energy. Under a low-dose condition, the irradiated area was scarcely etched, due to the formation of an amorphous layer on the interior of silicon. Subsequently, it was etched in KOH to evaluate the mechanism of this phenomenon. In addition, the surface roughness dependence on ion irradiation parameters was investigated. Finally, three-dimensional nanostructures were fabricated on the basis of these results, suggesting that this method is a novel three-dimensional nanofabrication method.","PeriodicalId":151961,"journal":{"name":"Jsme International Journal Series C-mechanical Systems Machine Elements and Manufacturing","volume":"76 8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123334354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By using Lyapunov stability theorem, a sufficient condition is found for computing the state feedback gains of controllers and the gains of observers in order to regulate the closed-loop systems in spite of the existence of parameters variations as well as delays. This sufficient condition contains two inequalities, one of which is linear matrix inequality (LMI), which can be solved by utilizing the computer’s software package. The globally asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system is guaranteed if the solution which satisfies the proposed sufficient condition exists. An application is given for demonstrating the feasibility of the proposed control method, whose performance is also compared to an existing sliding mode control scheme.","PeriodicalId":151961,"journal":{"name":"Jsme International Journal Series C-mechanical Systems Machine Elements and Manufacturing","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121216809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
