The conventional grounding impedance of a counterpoise is calculated as a function of the length of the counterpoise by use of the distributed parameter circuit model with an application of the EMTP(Electromagnetic Transient Program). The adequacy of the distributed parameter circuit model is examined and verified by comparison of the simulated and the measured results. The conventional grounding impedance of the counterpoise is analyzed for the first short stroke and subsequent short stroke currents. As a result, the simulated results show that the minimum conventional grounding impedance gives at a specified length of the counterpoise. The shorter the time taken to reach the peak of injected currents, the shorter the length of the counterpoise having the minimum conventional grounding impedance. We also present the critical lengths of the counterpoise for short stroke currents as a function of soil resistivity. Based on these results, it is necessary to compute the length of the counterpoise in a specified soil resistivity which satisfies both the low conventional grounding impedance requirement whilst also providing a suitable ground resistance in order to obtain an economical design and installation of the counterpoise.

Batteries are critical components of electric vehicles and energy storage systems. The connection of a battery to the power grid for charge and discharge greatly affects energy storage. Therefore, an accurate and easy-to-observe battery model should be established to achieve systematic design, simulation, and SOC (state of charge) estimations. In this review, several equivalent circuit models of representative significance are explained, and their respective advantages and disadvantages are compared to determine and outline their reasonable applications to Li-ion batteries. Numerous commonly used model parameter identification principles are summarized as well, and basic model verification methods are briefly introduced for the convenient use of such models.

The objective of the present study was to develop an equivalent circuit model of glucose kinetics including the hepatic glucose balance functions which were neglected in the previous compartmental models. Using this circuit model, the insulin resistivity parameter and hepatic glucose sensitivity parameter were estimated in optimal fitting of the model based data of glucose and insulin concentration to the reported clinical intravenous glucose tolerance test(IVGTT) data in normal and diabetic subjects. The addition of the hepatic function in the model has improved the overall performance of the simulation. Also, the computed tissue insulin resistivity and the hepatic glucose sensitivity are shown to be significant in distinguishin four clinical groups of normal and diabetic groups.

In this paper, we propose the algorithm for mask level simulation. The circuit parameters were extracted from the photomask data in format of bitmap. The extracted circuit parameter was transformed into the input file format of SPICE-16. And then the simulation of mask pattern data was carried out the SPICE-16. Thus the error operation of IC due to the mistake of photomask pattern could be prevented.

A ground electrode subjected to lightning surge current shows the transient impedance behaviors. The ground electrode for protection against lightning should be evaluated in view of the transient grounding impedance and conventional grounding impedance, not ground resistance. The transient impedance characteristics of ground electrodes are influenced by the shape of ground electrode and the soil characteristics, as well as the waveform of lightning surge current. In order to propose a simulation method of analyzing the transient impedance characteristics of the grounding system in practical use, this paper suggests a theoretical analysis method of distributed parameter circuit model to simulate the transient impedance characteristics of counterpoise subjected to lightning surge current. EMTP and Matlab programs were employed to compute the transient grounding impedances of three counterpoises with different lengths. As a consequence, the simulated results using the proposed distributed parameter circuit model are in good agreement with the measured results.

In designing defibrillator several points must be considered such as patient's transthoracic impedance, output energy level, peak current, tine duration of current waveform. Patient's transthoracic impedance depends on patient respectively and the health condition of patient. In this study, before the hardware implementation of defibrillator we determine the range of parameter values of circuit elements to derive optimal discharge waveform by predicting and analyzing the performance of designed circuit.

An accurate extraction technique is developed to determine full euqivalent circuit parameters of Si MOSFETs using 1 set of measured S-parametes without complicated optimization process. This technique is based on the use of anlytic Z-parameters experessions for resistances and inductances and the Y-parameter ones for ntrinsic parameters. This accuracy is proved over the wide range of gate voltage by observing good agreement between measured and fitted Z-parameter equations and frequency-independent response of the extracted intrinsic parameters. Using this technique, gate voltage-dependencies of model parameters are obained in the saturation region and these results show the similar behavior to the short-channel effects expected from the device theory.

In DC-DC Buck converters with average current mode control, the current loop compensator provides additional design freedom to enhance the converter current loop performance. On the other hand, the current loop circuit elements append substantial amount of complexity to not only the inner current loop but also the outer voltage loop, which makes it demanding to quantify circuit and operating parameter effects on the small-signal dynamics of such converters. Despite the difficulty, it is shown in this paper that parameter effects can be analyzed satisfactorily by using an existing small-signal model in conjunction with a newly proposed simplified alternative. As a result of the study, new insight into average current mode control is uncovered and discussed quantitatively. Measurable experimental results on a prototype averaged-current-mode-controlled Buck converter are provided to facilitate the analytical study with good correlation.

This paper presents an improved method to determine the internal parameters for improving accuracy of a lithium ion battery equivalent circuit model. Conventional methods for the parameter estimation directly using the curve fitting results generate the phenomenon to be incorrect due to the influence of the internal capacitive impedance. To solve this phenomenon, simple correction procedure with transient state analysis is proposed and added to the parameter estimation method. Furthermore, conventional dynamic equation for correction is enhanced with advanced RC impedance dynamic equation so that the proposed modeling results describe the battery dynamic characteristics more exactly. The improved accuracy of the battery model by the proposed modeling method is verified by single cell experiments compared to the other type of models.

For lightning currents, a grounding system shows the transient grounding impedance characteristics. A grounding system for protection against lightning should be evaluated by the transient grounding impedance, not it's ground resistance. The transient grounding impedance varies with the shape of ground electrode and earth characteristics as well as the waveform of lightning surge current. For the analysis and practical use of transient grounding impedance, the characteristics of transient grounding impedance should be analyzed theoretically and this paper suggests the theoretical analysis for the transient grounding impedance of counterpoise by using the distributed parameter circuit model. EMTP and Matlab are used to simulate the distributed parameter circuit model of counterpoise and the adequacy of the distributed parameter model of counterpoise is examined by comparing the simulated results with the measured results.
