Conductive polymer coated micro-cantilever array made by reel-to-reel continuous fiber process as the electrical contact components for woven electronic textile was investigated. We report the novel cantilever releasing method using air injection and the results of patternable CYTOP and organic conductive polymer using nanoimprinting method. The conductive organic material used in this study is PEDOT:PSS (poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly(4-styrenesulfonate)). Micro-cantilever contact array is realized to compose the electrical circuit through the large area woven textile. The contact resistance of 480 Ω is hold on for over 500 times. Contact resistance measurements revealed that an electric current begins to flow with smaller contact force for PEDOT:PSS coated cantilever array structure than for PEDOT:PSS film structure. There is no appreciable wear on cantilever surface due to its movability after 103 cycles contact test with 0.5 N contact force. Based on these results, PEDOT:PSS coated micro-cantilever array have excellent potential as electrical contact components between weft and warp for woven electronic textile.

In modern industrialized societies, it is mandatory to supply uninterruptedly high quality electric energy with modest cost while preserving better environments. This can only be realized through very sophisticated power system operations that compromise several contradictory factors stemming from economy, security and environment. Since these factors are in trade-off relationships to each other, they should be treated as such. A class of problems that simultaneously satisfy several criteria in trade-off relationships are called &ldquo;multi-objective optimization problems&rdquo;. Optimal power flow (OPF) has been regarded as the most powerful means to obtain such system operation plans, it only optimizes a single objective function.<br>This paper proposes an efficient solution methodology for a class of multi-objective optimal power flow problems which makes use of a heuristic search method. An optimal solution can be found in the proposed heuristic search method based on local information on a preference index which is arbitrarily chosen out of a given set of objectives. This circumvents the exhaustive evaluation of all non-inferior solutions which is needed in the existing multi-objective OPF algorithm proposed by the authors, thus dramatically reducing the solution time. The proposed method has been coded and applied to the IEEE 57 node test system. Simulation results have demonstrated the possibility of utilizing this method in on-line environments.

As the necessity of high quality electric power supply is increasing, it has been required to make up sophisticated power system operations in which several requirements stemming from economy, security and environmental aspects should simultaneously be satisfied. In general, a problem of satisfying several noncommensurable criteria is called a multi-objec-tive optimization problem. Although the most powerful means to obtain desirable system operations is optimal power flow (OPF), a straightforward application of the conventional OPF optimize only one objective and the remaining objectives must be treated as constraints. However, since such objectives are in trade-off relationships each other, it is necessary to develop an efficient multi-objective OPF.<br> In this paper, we shall propose a solution method of multi-objective OPF by means of fuzzy coordination. In the first step, the degree of satisfaction of Decision Maker on each objective would be maximized with a pre-specified member-ship function. The membership function would be updated in accordance with the DM's preference information and target value of the objective function. The degree of satisfaction will be improved step by step by updating the membership functions. Finally, the saticificing solution for the Decision Maker would be obtained. The proposed method has been applied to the IEEE 57 and 118 test system, producing successful results.

In manufacturing processes, inappropriate thermal distribution, which is observed in both steady and transient states of the thermal plant, leads to inferior quality. For a plant with strong thermal interaction, decoupling control is effective in precisely tuning the control system. We proposed the decoupling controller based on the temperature-difference feedback model. However, no parameter-identification method of thermal interaction has been presented so far. Traditionally, iterative tuning by trial and error has been used to tune the controller parameters. In the case of an industrial plant, the tuning time would be long because of the large time constants of the plant. Recently, the virtual reference feedback tuning (VRFT) method, which can be used for off-line tuning of the controller parameters using a set of I/O data, has been studied to examine the possibility of shortening the tuning time. In this paper, a VRFT method for the feedback decoupling controller is proposed for a two-dimensional heat plate by taking consideration the thermal interaction property. The effectiveness of this VRFT method is evaluated by performing an experimental simulation.

Recently, welfare vehicles are widely used by patients and elders. Many welfare vehicles are restricted to drive indoor or on a flat road. The vehicle with free casters can not be driven well when the road surface is rolling outdoors. To design compact welfare vehicles for outdoor use at low cost, the skid steer mechanism is focused on. The skid steer vehicle (SSV) is well known for its high traveling ability on an off-road. However, the SSV has disadvantage that the maneuvering assistance is required because its steering is highly affected by road condition. This study aims a steering assistance of SSV for patients and elders by using Model Error Compensator (MEC) that suppresses the modeling error by traditional PID control. The proposed controller consists of MEC and Extended Kalman Filter to reduce the sensor and the system noise assuming the undulating and skiddy roads. The effectiveness of the proposed control system is verified by the driving simulation considering the drivers weight and the road conditions.

This paper proposes a design method of dynamic quantizers for MIMO networked control systems. It is well known that feedback type dynamic quantizers are effective for quantization of the data series in the meaning of noise shaping. The dynamic quantizers include a set of a dynamic filter and a static quantizer. When it is required to use the quantizer under the network communication, the data size of signal should be minimized appropriately by the quantizers. The authors have proposed a design method of the dynamic quantizers for SISO systems based on the communication rate constraint. In this paper, the design method is extended to MIMO systems. By this extension, we can handle the communication rate constraint for a kind of concentrated systems. In the setting of the quantizer for MIMO system, bit assignment is important matter for appropriate design of information flow. The effectiveness of proposed design method is shown by numerical examples.

With the high economic growth era until 1990s, the power demand increased sharply year by year. Therefore, the electric power utilities installed many electric power facilities along with the predicted demand. However, in recent years, fewer infrastructures have been installed because electric power demand growth is saturated due to low economic growth. Therefore, in electric power facilities planning, it has been necessary to form a rational renewal planning which also considers social influence factors such as the construction quantity. In this paper, we propose a new transmission renewal planning method using Supply-end Reserves and Line Flow Sensitivities. We carry out simulations for the IEEJ EAST 10-machine -O/V model system and determine the transmission planning priority order to confirm the validity of the proposed method.

Permanent-magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) are used for traction application in electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). However, PMSMs generate vibration and acoustic noise in the connected load due to torque ripple. Torque ripple reduction techniques require accurate modeling of torque ripple and estimation of motor parameters considering magnetic saturation and magnet temperature variation. Existing approaches that consider magnetic saturation and magnet temperature variation are complicated and difficult to realize. Therefore, this paper proposes a torque ripple expression which is regarded as complex vector behavior. It can easily determine the high harmonic current reference to reduce the torque ripple by geometrically expressing the torque ripple. Furthermore, the effect of the proposed method of torque ripple reduction was experimentally verified.

The so-called three level inverters have been widely used for industry applications because of high-voltage output ability and low harmonic contents. These applications are mainly suitable for ac motor drives. Nowadays, attention has been paid to larger-capacity inverters applicable to power system control. This paper describes their applications to power systems. First, harmonic analysis of a three-level inverter is achieved under the condition that its two dc capacitor voltages are unbalanced. Second, a control method for balancing the two dc capacitor voltages is described. Finally, applications of single-phase three-level inverters to STATCOM and BTB are introduced. Their control performance is confirmed by computer simulation.
