Although the power density in Double Stator Switched Reluctance Motor (DSSRM) has been improved, the torque ripple is still very high. So, it is important to reduce the torque ripple for specific applications such as Electric Vehicles (EVs). In This paper, an effective rotor shaping optimization technique for torque ripple reduction of DSSRM is presented. This method leads to the lower torque pulsation without significant reduction in the average torque. The method is based on shape optimization of the rotor using Finite Element Method and Taguchi's optimization method for rotor reshaping for redistribution of the flux so that the phase inductance profile has smoother variation as the rotor poles move into alignment with excited stator poles. To check on new design robustness, mechanical analysis was used to evaluate structural conformity against local electromagnetic forces which cause vibration and deformation. The results show that this shape optimization technique has profound effect on the torque ripple reduction.

A microplasma current switch (MPCS) for a device operated in a current mode like organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), which features matrix addressability and current switching, is presented as well as its architecture and operational principle. The MPCS utilizes the intrinsic memory and conductivity of plasmas to achieve matrix addressability and current switching. We have fabricated a $100\;mm\;{\times}\;100\;mm$ MPCS panel in which its cell pitch is $1080\;{\mu}m\;{\times}\;1080\;{\mu}m$. The matrix addressability and current switching were verified. In addition, the current-voltage (I-V) characteristic of the unit cell was measured when plasmas were ignited. In principle, the scheme of the MPCS is equivalent to that of a double Langmuir probe diagnosing plasma parameters except for their relative dimensions to a plasma volume. Accordingly, the I-V characteristic was analyzed by a double Langmuir probe theory, and the plasma density and electron temperature were estimated from the I-V curve using a collisional double Langmuir probe theory.

As electronic devices technology scales down into the deep-submicron to achieve high-density, low power and high performance integrated circuits, multiple bit upsets by soft errors have become a major threat to on-chip memory systems. To address the soft error problem, single error correction, double error detection and double adjacent error correction (SEC-DED-DAEC) codes have been recently proposed. But these codes do not troubleshoot mis-correction problem. We propose the SEC-DED_DAEC code with without mis-correction. The decoder for proposed code is implemented as hardware and verified. The results show that there is no mis-correction in the proposed codes and the decoder can be employed on-chip memory system.

Articulated towers are one of the class of compliant offshore structures that freely oscillates with wind and waves, as they are designed to have low natural frequency than ocean waves. The present study deals with the dynamic response of a double-pendulum articulated tower under hydrodynamic and aerodynamic loads. The wind field is simulated by two approaches, namely, single-point and multiple-point. Nonlinearities such as instantaneous tower orientation, variable added mass, fluctuating buoyancy, and geometrical nonlinearities are duly considered in the analysis. Hamilton's principle is used to derive the nonlinear equations of motion (EOM). The EOM is solved in the time domain by using the Wilson-θ method. The maximum, minimum, mean, and standard deviation and salient power spectral density functions (PSDF) of deck displacement, bending moment, and central hinge shear are drawn for high and moderate sea states. The outcome of the analyses shows that tower response under multiple-point wind-field simulation results in lower responses when compared to that of single-point simulation.

The cerebellum is a region of the brain that plays an important role in motor control. It is classified phylogenetically into archicerebellum, paleocerebellum and neocerebellum. The Purkinje cells are lined in a row called Purkinje cell layer and it has a unique dendritic branches with many spines. The previous study reported that there is a difference of synapse density according to the lobules based on large two-dimensional data. However, recent study with high voltage electron microscopy showed there was no differences in dendritic spine density of the Purkinje cell according to its phylogenetic lobule. We analyzed Purkinje cell density in the II, VI and X lobules by stereological modules and synaptic density was estimated by double disector based on Purkinje cell density in the molecular layer of each lobule. The results showed that there was significant difference in the Purkinje cell density and synapse number according to their phylogenetic lobules. The number of Purkinje cell in a given volume was larger in the archicerebellum, but synapse density was higher in the neocerebellum. These data suggest that cellular and synaptic organization of the Purkinje cell is different according to their phylogenetic background.

In this paper, a dual-stator, spoke-type linear vernier machine (DSSLVM) for wave energy extraction application was proposed. This machine is capable of producing a competitively high thrust force and force density at a low operation speed in direct drive systems. The operation principal and working of the proposed DSSLVM were studied. The stator core height is adjusted to improve the overall force density of the proposed machine while reducing the force ripple. To evaluate the advantages of the proposed DSSLVM, the main performance was compared with that of a recently developed linear primary permanent magnet vernier machine (LPPMVM). The proposed machine exhibited greater thrust force and force density, an improved power factor and lower force ripple with the same permanent magnet (PM) volume compared to the LPPMVM.

The electric charge on a membrane was investigated by analyzing the experimental rejection of various monovalent and divalent ionic solutes. The characteristics of the separation of ionic solutes using various nanofiltration membranes were obtained from an experimental nanofiltration set-up, with a surface area of $40cm^2$ under the operational pressures between 0.25-0.3 MPa. The state of the membrane electric charge was observed using separation coefficients, i.e., the permeation ratio of monovalent to divalent ions. To confirm the state of the membrane charge observed via the separation coefficient, a calculation using the extended Nernst-Planck equation, coupled with the Donnan equilibrium, assuming different electric charge states of the membrane, was compared with the experimental rejection of ionic solutes. The examination of the characteristics of separation using three types of nanofiltration membranes showed that one of the membranes carried a negative/positive double charge density inside, while other two membranes carried either a positive or negative charge density.

We measured the electron drift velocity, W, in 0.5% $SF_{6}$-Ar mixture over the E/N range from 30 Td to 300 Td and gas pressure range from 0.1 to 8 Torr by the double shutter drift tube with a variable drift distance. This coefficient in the mixture was calculated over the same E/N and gas pressure range by using the two-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation. And the measured and calculated values at different gas number density at each E/N was appreciable dependence in the results on the gas number density,

본 연구에서는 실내실험을 통하여 식생의 변화에 따른 하도의 수리학적특성, 저수로의 변화, 사주의 거동, 하안의 안정성 등을 정량적으로 파악하였다. 실내실험은 기존에 인공식생 대신에 수로에서 실제식생인 알팔파를 성장시켜서 수행하였다. 식생대에서는 유속이 매우 느리며, 저수로의 이동이 감소하였다. 2중 퓨리에 해석 결과, 교호사주의 특성을 나타낸 1-1모드의 진폭이 지배적이지만, 시간이 증가하면서 복렬사주의 특성을 나타내는 2-2와 2-3모드의 진폭이 증가하였다. 식생에 의하여 저수로가 고착화 되어 하도의 안정성이 증가하고, 하도 내 사주의 이동속도는 감소하지만, 하상이 불규칙하게 변하면서, 사주의 수는 증가하였다. 식생의 밀도가 증감함에 따라 하안의 안정성은 증가하였다. 식생의 밀도가 증가함에 따라 유사의 유출량과 유출량의 변동성이 감소하였다. 또한 망상화 강도는 감소하지만, 하도의 상관계수와 하상의 기복지수(BRI)는 증가하는 특성을 보여주었다.

비정질 인듐-갈륨-아연 산화물 박막트랜지스터를 모델링 하여서, 능동층의 구조, 두께, 평형상태의 전자밀도에 대응하는 박막트랜지스터의 특성을 연구하였다. 단일 능동층 박막트랜지스터의 경우, 능동층이 얇을 때 높은 전계효과이동도를 보였다. 문턱전압의 절대값은 능동층의 두께가 20 nm일 때 최저치를 보였으며, 문턱전압이하 기울기는 두께에 대한 의존성을 보이지 않았다. 복층구조 능동층의 경우, 하부의 능동층이 높은 평형상태 전자밀도를 가질 때보다 우수한 스위칭 특성을 보였다. 이 경우에도 능동층의 두께가 얇을 때에 높은 전계효과 이동도를 보였다. 높은 평형상태 전자밀도의 능동층의 두께를 증가시키면 문턱전압은 음의 방향으로 이동하였다. 문턱전압이하 기울기는 능동층의 구조에 대하여 특별한 의존성을 보이지 않았다. 이상과 같은 데이터는 산화물반도체 박막트랜지스터 능동층의 구조, 두께, 도핑비율을 최적화함에 효과적으로 사용될 것으로 기대된다.
