This study proposes a two-degree-of-freedom PID controller design and tuning method based on a simple pole placement approach to enhance servo and regulatory performance while ensuring the stability of diesel engines. In the modeling of the control target, the actuator is analytically modeled. In contrast, the type of model for the diesel engine is derived analytically, and its parameter estimation uses operational data from n...

Background Moju is a traditional rice beverage local to Jeonju with an alcohol content of 1–2%. Moju is made by boiling makgeolli with several kinds of medicinal herbs, such as ginger, jujube and cinnamon. The raw materials used in Moju are well known for their physiological and functional effects. Although Moju is made with functional raw materials, the operational role of Moju has not yet been reported. Objectives The aim of...

Background Momordica charantia is a member of the Cucurbitaceae family and has traditionally been used for medical nutritional therapy to cure diabetes, and its various biological properties have been reported. However, several studies have demonstrated that M. charantia may exert toxic or adverse effects under different conditions. In this study, we prepared an M. charantia extract using ultrasound-assisted extraction, which...
