= Minutes of MIF Meeting on 2013/2/8 =

Participants: Y. Aso, M. Nakano, K. Yamamoto, R. Takahashi

=== Servo Modeling ===
Core of the python glue code is ready (Aso).
Needs more work on importing data from other simulation tools. GUI is also necessary.

=== Suspension Modeling ===
 * Mathematica code to convert a suspension model into a system of equations of motion in matrix form.
 * Then the matrices are converted to the ABCD matrix representation of the system. Transfer functions are automatically calculated from the ABCD matrices. 
 * Verification with a single pendulum model.
 * Preliminary damping control with the full KAGRA SAS. But the results are strange.
 * Will test a double-pendulum model to further verify the method.

=== Measurement Insturuments ===
We will probably buy the followings this year

 * 2 RF signal generators
 * 2 data loggers.
 * 1 FFT servo analyzer.

Aso will get quotes and ask people's opinions at the F2F.

=== Next Meeting ===
TBD.
