In this paper, a non-parametric model is presented for representing compressible fluid struts (CFS) that are based on silicon fluid. The strut can be properly designed to replace the traditional spring and shock absorber for vehicle suspension application. For this study, the strut does not include damping function so that the analysis focuses on modeling the fluid compressibility of the spring function. The approach is to derive a series of mathematics equations in correspondence to the extracted data sets from the strut testing data. The pressure data can be characterized as dependent on precharge pressure, vibration applied on the strut, and friction existing between sealing and the strut rod surface. Every characteristic is represented by a (group of) simple equation, which is optimized based on characterized data sets, respectively. Finally the model is programmed in SIMULINK and validated by the collected testing data.

Cognitive Infocommunications (CogInfoCom) messages that are used to carry information on the state of the same high-level concept can be regarded as belonging to a CogInfoCom channel. Such channels can be generated using any kind of parametric model. By changing the values of the parameters, it is possible to arrive at a large variety of CogInfoCom messages, a subset of which can belong to a CogInfoCom channel – provided they are perceptually well-suited to the purpose of conveying information on the same highlevel concept. Thus, for any CogInfoCom channel, we may speak of a parameter space and a perceptual space that is created by the totality of messages in the CogInfoCom channel. In this paper, we argue that in general, the relationship between the parameter space and the perceptual space is highly non-linear. For this reason, it is extremely difficult for the designer of a CogInfoCom channel to tune the parameters in such a way that the resulting CogInfoCom messages are perceptually continuous, and suitable to carry information on a single high-level concept. To address this problem, we propose a cognitive artifact that uses a rank concept available in tensor algebra to provide the designer of CogInfoCom channels with practical tradeoffs between complexity and interpretability. We refer to the artifact as the Spiral Discovery Method (SDM).
