Thin films were fabricated by varying the gas pressure from 0.3 to 1.0 Pa at an oxygen flow ratio of 6%, and the gas pressure dependences was clarified. As the gas pressure increased, the optical bandgap of the SiCO thin film increased, resulting in a transparent SiCO films. On the other hand, the refractive index, young's modulus, and hardness decreased with increasing gas pressure. Combining this dependence with the oxygen inflow ratio dependence of the previous study, the first-order approximation formula for the gas pressure and oxygen flow rate ratio for various film characteristics was obtained.

Second, we examined the issue of existing teaching materials. Many of the existing kit materials were not suitable for learning circuit design as it was already completed. In addition, many of them required soldering work, which was too difficult for elementary school students. Hands-on materials that allow students to construct circuits through trial and error were suitable for learning circuit design. Therefore, we developed design and fabrication support materials using a 3D printer and conductive tape. Next, we provided workshop opportunities using developed material, with the theme of “making light-up cards,” wherein elementary school students worked on designing the layout of the components and fabrication.

Batch processes are often controlled by PID controllers, where engineers manually regulate their parameters and temporal patterns of reference signals. Therefore, it takes a long time for optimizing these parameters and temporal patterns. A possible solution for this is to apply so-called Model Predictive Control (MPC) technology to the tuning. Here, batch process dynamics depend on the types of products and of equipment, thereby forcing engineers to construct and maintain multiple models that correspond to the number of combinations of product types and equipment types. Thus, batch process modeling is a time-consuming and complicated task. To solve this problem, we propose a modeling framework; about a modeling target, the part applying commonly and parameters can be decided in advance are constructed by mathematical models, and the part that required experimentation for designing or tuning are constructed by machine learning models. We expect this framework can improve estimation accuracy and suppressing the number of model construction by separating model construction and combining the mathematical and machine learning models. In our simulation, we confirmed that our proposed model can suppress prediction error (RMSE) of reactor temperature under 1 K. Furthermore, an optimization algorithm with our model can find a temporal pattern of a reference signal so as to reduce control error of reactor temperature under 1.99 K.</p>","PeriodicalId":50539,"journal":{"name":"Electronics and Communications in Japan","volume":"106 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135367024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
