This paper presents a study on the dimming control of electrodeless fluorescent lamp. To do this the equivalent model of electrodeless fluorescent lamp (ENDURA 100w Type) was first established. The resulted model of the lamp was applied to the two kinds of dimming control method, one is the variable switching frequency method and the other is the variable dc link voltage method. And the comparison results of the dimming characteristics between the two methods was presented. Theoretical predictions were verified by the experimental results on the ENDURA 100W type electrodeless fluorescent lame.

We developed a human-sized BWR(biped walking robot) driven by a new actuator based on the ball screw which has high strength and high gear ratio. The robot overcomes the limit of the driving torque of conventional BWRs. Each leg of the robot is composed of three pitch joints and one roll joint. In all, a 10 degree-of-freedom robot with two balancing joints was developed. The BWR was developed to walk autonomously such that it is actuated by small torque motors and is boarded with DC battery and controllers. In the performance test, the BWR peformed nice motions of sitting-up and sitting-down. Through the test, we could find capability of high performance in biped-walking.

This paper provides the end-point positioning of a single-link flexible robot arm by inverse dynamics. The system is composed of a flexible arm, the mobile ballscrew stage as an arm base, a DC servomotor as an actuator, and a computer. Actuator voltages required for the model of a flexible arm to follow a given tip trajectory are formulated on the basis of the Bermoullie-Euler beam theory and solved by applying the Laplace transform method, and computed by the numerical inversion method proposed by Weeks. The mobile stage as the arm base is shifted so that the end-point follows the desired trajectories. Then the trajectory of end-point is measured by the laser displacement sensor. Here, two kinds of functions are chosen for the given tip trajectories. One is what is called the bang-bang acceleration profile and the other is the Gaussian velocity profile.

Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure orthopedic surgeons use to visualize, diagnose and treat problems inside a joint. In usual, since the arthroscopic surgery is more accurate and minimally invasive than through 'open' surgery, the surgery of knee, shoulder, and wrist using auto-shaver is increasing in recent. However, repetitive use of arthroscopic-shaver may induce the second infection, hence the disposable arthroscopic-shaver should be developed. In this paper, a unique power transmission mechanism using DC motor, gear trains, and link mechanism is proposed for disposable arthroscopic-shaver and some test results of tissue cutting are introduced.

본 논문에서는 대용량 태양광 PCS의 병렬운전 알고리즘에 대해 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘은 dc-link 전압을 이용하여 PCS를 독립적으로 제어한다. 일반적으로 태양광 PCS는 정격용량 또는 그 근처에서 최대 효율을 낸다. 제안한 알고리즘은 일사량이 적을 시 일부 PCS만 작동하도록 하여 전력 변환 효율을 높인다. 항상 모든 PCS가 작동하는 것이 아니라 필요한 수량만 작동하도록 하고, 작동하는 PCS도 순차적으로 바꿔서, 전제 시스템의 수명을 늘리는 효과도 있다. 또한 일부 PCS가 고장이 날 경우 다른 PCS가 작동하도록 하여 태양광 발전이 멈추지 않고 계속 발전할 수 있도록 한다.

This paper is to show design of robot manipulator which has 3-link using DC Motor and realization of control algorithm with IBM - XT Micro-computer connected. Gentral algorithm is applicated by position and pass control using point-to-point method. At first, this paper computes required angles on each joint in order to search desired position or path, and uses a voltage control with feedback from output of encoder and tachometer in real time. The application of control algorithm on position, velocity and force for each joint of manipulator by using self-tuning control is left for next study.

The conventional autosequentially commutated current-fed inverter (ASCI) is widely employed with the induction motor drives for speed control. Howener, this inverter has a limit of high power and high frequency indution motor drives. One of the limitations is to be found in the commutation capacitors in the main circuit of this inverter. A new current-fed gate turn-off thyristor (GTO) inverter is developed. This inverter is composed of the main GTO bridge configuration and the improved energy rebound circuit (ERC)without the commutation capacitor. This inverter works stable at high frequency from light load to heavy one. The improved ERC is used not only to rebound the load reactive power to the dc link, but also to return the power in the load to the ac source. The new GTO inverter circuit and the characteristics of the inverter induction motor drives are explained and analyzed.

This paper presents the performance of a parallel active power filter(PT) system in unbalanced load condition. The unbalanced load leads to negative sequence of current, and makes 120Hz ripple in the DC-link voltage forcing large capacitance and increases the rating of APF. thus, the separation of negative sequence is performed in synchronous reference frame and controlled to flow into supply network. The validity of the scheme is investigated through simulation and the experimental results for a prototype active power filter system rated at 10kVA.

This paper deals with single-phase unified power quality conditioner(UPQC), which aims at the integration of series-active and shunt-active filter. The series filter is used to compensate for the voltage distortions and the shunt filter is used to provide reactive power and counteract the harmonic current injected by the load. Also, the voltage of the DC link capacitor is controlled to a desired value by the shunt active filter. The performance of UPQC under load nonlinearities conditions is investigated using simulation as well as experimental results.

The single-phase PWM converter employing power semiconductors is currently applied to the power unit of high-speed rail vehicle and increasingly used as the front-end converter with properties of near unity power factor. Power factor and harmonics are increasingly important needs for drive system of high-speed rail vehicle. The proposed approach has many advantages which include fewer semiconductor components, simplified control, high performance features and satisfies IEC 555 harmonic current standards. Simulation results show that the dc-link voltage control obey the reference value during constant load and input current is near sinusoidal.
