  • During fast neutron imaging, besides the dark current noise and readout noise of the CCD camera, the main noise in fast neutron imaging comes from high-energy gamma rays generated by neutron nuclear reactions in and around the experimental setup. These high-energy gamma rays result in the presence of high-density gamma white spots (GWS) in the fast neutron image. Due to the microscopic quantum characteristics of the neutron beam itself and environmental scattering effects, fast neutron images typically exhibit a mixture of Gaussian noise. Existing denoising methods in neutron images are difficult to handle when dealing with a mixture of GWS and Gaussian noise. Herein we put forward a deep learning approach based on the Swin Transformer UNet (SUNet) model to remove high-density GWS-Gaussian mixture noise from fast neutron images. The improved denoising model utilizes a customized loss function for training, which combines perceptual loss and mean squared error loss to avoid grid-like artifacts caused by using a single perceptual loss. To address the high cost of acquiring real fast neutron images, this study introduces Monte Carlo method to simulate noise data with GWS characteristics by computing the interaction between gamma rays and sensors based on the principle of GWS generation. Ultimately, the experimental scenarios involving simulated neutron noise images and real fast neutron images demonstrate that the proposed method not only improves the quality and signal-to-noise ratio of fast neutron images but also preserves the details of the original images during denoising.

  • In this paper, three current controllers for a grid-connected PCS using an LCL filter are compared and analyzed. Current controllers discussed in this paper are linear controllers such as PI (proportional-integral), PR (proportional-resonant), and DB (deadbeat) controller. Both transient and steady state responses of each controller are compared through both simulation and experiment. Although the DB controller has the fastest transient response and the lowest THD in the steady state, the DB controller has two cycles delay of current response in the steady state and has the stability problem which can be occurred due to variation of the system parameters. On the one hand the responses of PR controller are not much different from that of DB controller but the other hand that are not only strong to noise of grid current but also have smaller THD than PI controller. Considering the response time and stability issue of three controllers, the PR controller has the best performance among three controllers and thus can be strongly recommended as a current controller for a grid-connected PCS.

  • 배전 계통 산업 현장에서는 스위칭 소자 및 제어장치, 전 자기기들이 한 대 맞물려 증가하고 있다. 또한, 스마트 그리드(Smart Grid) 및 마이크로 그리드(Micro Grid)의 개념이 도입되면서 분산 전원 이 널리 보급되고 있다. 이로 인해 현장에서는 많은 전기전자기기들이 설치되어 운영 중에 있고, 이것은 noise 및 고조파와 같은 왜란이 발생 되는 원인을 초래하고 있다. 왜란은 여러 전기 전자 장비들의 데이터 취득 왜곡 현상을 발생시키고, 이러한 데이터 손실로 인해 기기들의 오동작 및 사고를 발생시킨다. 대표적인 왜란으로는 common mode noise 같은 대지(大地) 등의 기준점과 각 신호선 사이에 나타나는 노이즈가 있으며, 선로 및 장비 특성에 따라 기수 및 우수 고조파가 있다. 이러한 왜란들은 전자기기들의 오동작 및 신호의 부 정확성으로 제품 신뢰성에 문제를 초래한다. 특히 데이터 계측 실패 및 Serial 통신을 함에 있어서 신호 손실을 발생시켜 데이터 변형을 초래한다. 이로 인해 배전선로에 위치한 전자기기들이 왜곡된 데이터로 동작을 하게 되고 이는 곧 선로의 사고를 발생시키게 된다. 따라서 왜란들을 사전에 방지하여 기기 오동작 및 부동작을 예방하기 위해서 산업계에서는 왜란에 대한 인식을 지속적으로 증가시키고 있다. 실제 현장에서도 이와 같은 왜란으로 인해 기기 오동작을 하는 경우가 많으며 이를 해결하기 위한 여러 신호처리 기법을 적용하고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 여러 종류의 샘플링 데이터 량을 생성할 수 있도록 샘플링 속도를 다변환(Multi-interchange)하고 각 샘플링 속도에 맞게 계측된 샘플링 데이터를 DFT 신호 처리하여 왜란으로부터 강건한 계통 주파수를 계측한다. 또한, 주파수 별 DFT 값을 Table화 하여 계통 주파수를 찾아낸다.

  • An adhesive wireless bookbinding machine was designed with optimal motor control and automatic cover insertion for bookbinding. The noise level was improved by modifying the thrust of the machine and changing from a compressor method to an AC induction motor control method. The automatic cover insertion function was added to improve the task speed. Motor and decelerator damage can be caused by sudden braking and acceleration of the motor rotation (clockwise and counter-clockwise), so a buffer-type locational control system was developed to secure stable movement and durability. The complicated internal design was also simplified, and the volume and weight were decreased. The results show that the noise was decreased by 57% from 135 dB to 71.7 dB, and the task speed was decreased by 57% from 18 s to 9.58 s. The automatic cover insertion was designed to supply a maximum of 130 sheets per supply.

  • The aerodynamic far-field noise was computed by an acoustic analogy code using the permeable surface for the UH-1H rotor blade in hover. The permeable surface surrounding the blade was constructed to include the thickness noise, the loading noise, and the flow noise generated from the shock waves and the tip vortices. The computation was performed with compressible three-dimensional Euler's equations and Navier-Stokes equations. The high speed impulsive noise was predicted and validated according to the permeable surface locations. It is confirmed that the noise source caused by shock waves generated on the blade surface is a dominant factor in the far-field noise prediction.

  • Studies of unsteady-airfoil flows have been motivated mostly by efforts to avoid. or reduce such undesirable effects as flutter, noise and vibrations, dynamic stall. In this paper, we carry out a computational study of viscous flows around a two-dimensional oscillating airfoil to investigate unsteady effects in these important and challenging flows. A fully implicit incompressible RANS solver has been used for calculating unsteady viscous flows around an airfoil. The cell-centered End order finite volume method is utilized to discretize governing equations. in order to ease the flow computation for fluid region changing in time, improve the qualify of solution and simplify the grid generation for an oscillating airfoil flow, the computational method adopts a moving and deforming grid generation technique based on the multi-block grid topology. The numerical method is applied for calculating viscous flows of an oscillating NACA 0012 in uniform flow. The computational results are compared with available experimental data. Computed results are compared with experimental data and flow characteristics of the experiment are reproduced well In the computed results.

  • In this paper, an image segmentation algorithm is described to extract both the contour line and the inner grid patterns of body in case of ambiguous environment. The binary method using a threshold is used to extract image boundary. To reduce image noise, the $3{\times}3$ hybrid high pass filter adjusted for applying 3D information extraction of complicated shape object is proposed. This hybrid high pass filter algorithm can be applied to extract complicated shape object such as 3D body shape, CAD system, and factory automation since the processing time for image denoising is shorter than the conventional methods.

  • In this paper, a new grid voltage estimation algorithm without voltage sensors is proposed for the three-phase vienna rectifier. Generally, input voltage sensor circuits increase size and cost of the PWM rectifier In order to reduce the cost and size and in order to increase reliability from the electrical noise, grid voltage estimation scheme without input voltage sensor is highly required. In this paper, the grid voltage estimation algorithm is proposed by a simple MRAS(Model Reference Adaptive System) observer without input voltage sensors. The validity of the proposed method is proven by simulation and experiment on the three-phase vienna rectifier system.

  • In this paper, a design optimization of ball grid array packaging geometry is studied based on the Taguchi method, which allowed robust design by considering the variance of the input parameters during the optimization process. Molding compound and substrate were modeled as viscoelastic, and finite element analyses were performed to calculate the strain energy densities of the eutectic solder balls. Six quality factors of the dimensions of the packaging geometry were chosen as control factors. After performing noise experiments to determine the dominant factors, main experiments were conducted to find the optimum packaging geometry. Then the strain energy densities between the original and optimized geometries were compared. It was found that the effects of the packaging geometry on the solder ball reliability were significant, and more than 40% of the strain energy density was reduced by the geometry optimization.

  • It is well known that an automotive muffle strongly influences engine efficiency and noise reduction. The performance of a muffler system is determined by the geometrical parameters such as the relative location of an inlet and outlet pipe size and cross sectional geometry of a chamber. In this study numerical analysis was performed to examine the flow characteristics in the simple automotive muffler for the variation of volumetric rate and offset. The computational grid generation was carried out. The RNG k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model was applied. To provide the boundary condition for numerical analysis the experimental measurement wes carried out. As a result of this study we could understand that there was a recirculation flow inside muffler and pressure loss depends on the variation of volumetric rate and offset.
