High frequency common mode voltage produced by PWM inverter fed Induction motor is a major cause of conducted EMI, creation motor ground currents, bearing currents and other harmful products. The zero switching states of inverter control invoke large in comparison with the non-zero switching state of Inverter control. We proposed a common mode voltage reduction method based on sinusoidal PWM technique. PWM signal are generated by comparing respective sinusoidal reference signal with three triangular carrier wave displaced of 120$^{\circ}$. Simulation and experimenta1 result show that common mode voltages in the proposed PWM technique are reduced by approximate 66% more than conventional FWM technique.

This paper presents the effective technique to design a six-axis load cell by using experimental design with an orthogonal array. A binocular structure is used as a basic sensing element for a load cell instead of the parallel plate structure. The finite element method is adopted to obtain strain distributions of the sensing element, and by doing the analysis of variances, its results are utilized in determining the factor which is more influential to the output strain. Calibration test results show that the developed six-axis loa cell with the maximum capacities of 196 N in forces and 19.6 N. m in moments is evaluated to be useful with the coupling error less than 2.5%.
