Objective : The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of modified Interactive Metronome (IM) program which is applicable to clinical practice based on the IM protocol on the behavioral symptoms, timing and motor function of children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Method : This study used one-group pretest-posttest research design. 13 ADHD children aged 7-12 years in Busan were participated in this study. The participants were underwent 24 sessions of 30 minutes intervention, 3 times a week. Evaluations were performed before- and after the intervention. Measurements used in this study were Korean-ADHD Rating Scale for behavior symptom, Long Form Assessment (LFA) for the timing, and second version of Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency (BOT-2) for the motor function. Results : There was a significant improvement in hyperactivity / impulsivity among the behavioral symptoms, and there was a statistically significant improvement in timing, hand coordination, and body coordination. Conclusion : Modified IM program for clinical application has significant effect on improving behavioral symptoms, timing and motor function of children with ADHD.

This paper proposes a new loss minimization controller (LMC) for induction motor drive. The proposed LMC presents a strategy to minimize the total power losses of induction motor (IM), which is based on simplified equivalent circuit and simplified model of IM. The proposed controller using the field oriented control (FOC) method is to determine an optimal rotor flux for obtaining the minimum total power losses and higher efficiency. Simulation and experimental results are given to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The latest generation of tram is low-floor design, various nations in europe and japan have developed battery driven hybrid trams that combine battery and wiring. Battery driven tram system is achieved by contactless power supply system, thus system is needed high efficiency, high power and low weight traction motor for maximization of energy efficiency. Research from abroad is still in induction motor(IM) application, and it is not meet the efficiency and the power per unit volume in IPMSM. In this paper, we design compare IM and IPMSM to apply battery driven tram, and then compare these motors. To design the motor, we estimate the loading condition at first. Loading condition includes rolling resistance, air-drag resistance, and slope resistance. Based on the loading condition by estimation, we determine the power and compute rated voltage and rated current. In this paper, voltage is limited by battery voltage level. As a result, volume about IM is 1.98 times bigger than IPMSM under same condition. Even though IPMSM is bigger than IM in power density per volume, we consider more factors for actual application because there are demagnetization of permanent magnet in IPMSM and so on by external environment conditions.

Direct Torque controlled induction motor (DTC-IM) drives use stator resistance of the motor for stator flux estimation. So, stator resistance estimation properly is very important for a stable and effective operation of the induction motor. Stator resistance variations because of changing in temperature make DTC operation difficult mainly at low speed. A method based on artificial neural network (ANN) to estimate the stator resistance online of IM for DTC drive is modeled and verified in this paper. To train the neural network a back propagation algorithm is used. Weight adjustment of neural network is done by back propagating the error signal between measured and estimated stator current. An extensive simulation has been carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK to prove the efficacy of the proposed stator resistance estimator. The simulation & experimental result reveals that proposed method is able to obtain precise torque and flux control at low speed.

This paper presents an improved operating characteristics of squirrel-cage induction motor(IM) for 5-phase 1.5kW, 220V, 60Hz in order to study a polyphase AC machinery that keep hold of advantages more than traditional three-phase a IM, such as reducing a amplitude of torque pulsation, decreasing electric noises, and increasing the reliability. The developed manufacturing motor was necessary to do improvement of speed regulation, efficiency, operating characteristics, and so on at rated load. There are remake a redesigned and distributed stator winding connection without changing the frames of stator and rotor core in previous established the motor by a repeat tests. There are shown a experiments results of no-load test, locked rotor test, operating characteristics at variable load, FFT analysis of harmonics within output voltages and current waveform, decided motor parameters.

An active front end (AFE) is required for a three-phase induction motor (IM) fed by a voltage source inverter (VSI), because of the increasing need to derive quality current from the utility end without sacrificing the power factor (PF). This study investigates a proportional-plus-integral (PI) controller based AFE topology that uses a super-lift converter (SLC). The significance of the proposed SLC, which converts rectified AC supply to geometrically proceed ripple-free DC supply, is explained. Variations in several power quality parameters in the intended IM drive for 0% and 100% loading conditions are demonstrated. A simulation is conducted by using MATLAB/Simulink software, and a prototype is built with a field programmable gate array (FPGA) Spartan-6 processor. Simulation results are correlated with the experimental results obtained from a 0.5 HP IM drive prototype with speed feedback and a voltage/frequency (V/f) control strategy. The proposed AFE topology using SLC is suitable for three-phase IM drives, considering the supply end PF, the DC-link voltage and current, the total harmonic distortion (THD) in supply current, and the speed response of IM.

A method of flux sensing using tapped winding is described for measuring air gap flux in linear induction motor. This method which utilizes coils of motor itself is neither affected by temperature nor resistive voltage drop due to stator current in the motor coils. So it can measure air gap flux in reliable manner. The tapped wilding method has been implemented in experiment and the result shows that this method can be sufficiently used in direct vector control of linear induction motor.

This paper proposes a improved speed control system for five-phase squirrel-cage induction motor(IM) injecting 3rd. current harmonic components with field oriented control (FOC) A five-phase IM drives present unique characteristics due to the additional degrees of freedom and also drives possess many others advantage compared with the traditional three-phase motor drive system, such as reducing a amplitude of torque pulsation at low frequency and increasing the reliability. In order to maximize the torque per ampere, the proposed motor has concentrated windings. The produced back-electromotive force is almost trapezoidal, and the motor is supplied with the combined sinusoidal plus third harmonic of currents. There is necessary to controlled 3rd harmonic current in order to high response characteristics. For presenting the superior performance of the proposed the speed control system, experimental results are presented using a 32-bit fixed point TMS320F2812 DSP with 1.5[kW] induction motor.
