  • Using existing static methods, it is possible to estimate accurately the reponses of structures governed by the fundamental mode. However, these methods do not provide reliable estimates for the structure where higher mode effects are significant. Parametric study was performed to analyze the dynamic characteristics of the structure with long vibration period. Based on the investigations, a new modal combination method using modal combination coefficients, Factored Modal Combination, was developed, and static earthquake load patterns addressing higher mode effects reasonably were proposed. Existing modal combination methods, such as SRSS and CQC, lack a theoretical basis to be applied to inelastic structures. In contrast, the proposed method can be applied conveniently in inelastic range as well as in elastic range.

  • Electrostatic discharge(ESD) phenomenon is a serious reliability concern. It causes approximately most of all field failures of IC. To quality the ESD immunity of IC product, there are some test methods and standards developed. ESD events have been classified into 3 models, which are HBM, MM and CDM. All the test methods are designed to evaluate the ESD immunity of IC products. This study provides an overview among ESD test methods on ICs and an efficient ESD stress method. We have estimated on all pin combination about the positive and negative ESD stress. We make out the weakest stress mode. This mode called a worst-case mode. We proposed that positive supply voltage pin and I/O pin combination is efficient because it is a worst-case mode.

  • Switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) have become a major source of conducted electromagnetic interference (EMI) which is the combination between differential mode (DM) noise and common mode (CM) noise. This paper presents the conducted EMI reduction approach in flyback switched mode power supply by rerouting for circuit balance to reduce common mode noise. And differential mode noise can be reduce by adding $c_x$ capacitor across the input power line, and passive element to the gate drive of switching device MOSFET to slow down the switching times. This combination of our approach is the effective way to reduce the conducted EMI and it is also a cost effective for product design

  • The paesent paper deals with obtaining the properly mixed application critaeia for the manual mode, using computer graphic simulation, in order to recover the error effectively occurring in the advanced teleoperator work of man-robot system. In these experiments the error which is occurred during performing the automatic mode is recovered by the manual mode which is combined properly the operation by hyman with the operation by control program. The result shows an improvement availibility of the system by not only establishing an efficient combination of the manual mode according to trajectory planning but also recovering the error effectively. Therefore we suggest that the operation by control program should be applied in macro motion of control and the operation by human in micro motion of control.

  • In the dynamic analysis of a mechanism, if one or more of the components are flexible, then the simulation will not be accurate because of the violation of the rigid body assumption. Mode shapes are used to represent the dynamic behavior of an elastic structure. A modal synthesis method which uses a combination of normal modes, constraint modes, and attachment modes, was used to represent effectively the elastic deformation of a flexible multibody. Since the combination of these modes should be different for each type of connecting part, the modal synthesis method was studied for the various types of interconnecting joints. In addition, the analysis procedure for the flexible body was explained. A satellite system with flexible solar panels was chosen as an example to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

  • Response spectrum method is still an effective approach for the design of buildings with supplemental dampers. In practice, complex complete quadratic combination (CCQC) rule is always used in the response spectrum method to consider the effect of non-classical damping. The conventional CCQC rule is based on exact complex mode vectors. Sometimes the calculated complex mode vectors may be not excited by the external loading and errors in the structural responses always arise due to the mode truncation. Load-dependent Ritz (LDR) vectors are associated with the external loading and LDR vectors not excited can be automatically excluded. Also, contributions of higher modes are implicitly contained in the LDR vectors in terms of static responses. To improve the calculation efficiency and accuracy, LDR vectors are introduced in the CCQC rule in the present study. Firstly, the generation procedure of LDR vectors suitable for non-classical damping system is presented. Compared to the conventional LDR vectors, the LDR vectors herein are complex-valued and named as complex LDR (CLDR) vectors. Based on the CLDR vectors, the CCQC rule is then rederived and an improved response spectrum method is developed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method in this paper is verified through three typical non-classical damping buildings. Numerical results show that the CLDR vector is superior to the complex mode with the same number in the calculation. Since the generation of CLDR vectors requires less computational cost and storage space, the method proposed in this paper offers an attractive alternative, especially for structures with a large number of degrees of freedom.

  • Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of combining the quantitative parameters of shear wave elastography (SWE) and superb microvascular imaging (SMI) to breast ultrasound (US) to differentiate between benign and malignant breast masses. Materials and Methods: A total of 200 pathologically confirmed breast lesions in 192 patients were retrospectively reviewed using breast US with B-mode imaging, SWE, and SMI. Breast masses were assessed based on the breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) and quantitative parameters using the maximum elasticity (Emax) and ratio (Eratio) in SWE and the vascular index in SMI (SMIVI). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) value, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value of B-mode alone versus the combination of B-mode US with SWE or SMI of both parameters in differentiating between benign and malignant breast masses was compared, respectively. Hypothetical performances of selective downgrading of BI-RADS category 4a (set 1) and both upgrading of category 3 and downgrading of category 4a (set 2) were calculated. Results: Emax with a cutoff value of 86.45 kPa had the highest AUC value compared to Eratio of 3.57 or SMIVI of 3.35%. In set 1, the combination of B-mode with Emax or SMIVI had a significantly higher AUC value (0.829 and 0.778, respectively) than B-mode alone (0.719) (p < 0.001 and p = 0.047, respectively). B-mode US with the addition of Emax, Eratio, and SMIVI had the best diagnostic performance of AUC value (0.849). The accuracy and specificity increased significantly from 68.0% to 84.0% (p < 0.001) and from 46.1% to 79.1% (p < 0.001), respectively, and the sensitivity decreased from 97.6% to 90.6% without statistical loss (p = 0.199). Conclusion: Combining all quantitative values of SWE and SMI with B-mode US improved the diagnostic performance in differentiating between benign and malignant breast lesions.

  • For an efficient calculation of scattering matrix in mode matching techniques, mode combination has been studied in this paper. A conducting post in rectangular waveguide, which is most commonly utilized in the combline filter structure, is adopted and its scattering matrix is derived. We eliminates the TE and TM modes having little influence on result, which results in the different number of TE and TM modes in each discontinuous region.

  • This paper describes a combination surge generator for carrying out performance tests on the surge protection circuits of shipboard electrical systems. Pspice simulations were performed to decide the values of the parts required and to analyze the characteristics of the generator circuitry. The surge generator fabricated can produce four of the most common surge test waveforms : the O.5i/S/100kHz Ringwave, the 1.2/50$\mu$S voltage, the 8/20$\mu$S current, and the lO/lOOOi/S voltage wave¬forms specified in ANSI Std. C62. Source impedances of the surge generator are 12$\Omega$ in the O.5$\mu$S/100kHz mode, O.5$\Omega$ in the 1.2/50$\mu$S and 8/20$\mu$S mode, and 40$\Omega$in the l0/1000$\mu$S mode, and are determined by the ratio of the maxi¬mum open - circuit voltage to the maximum short - circuit current. Experimental results show that the surge generator provides most of the outputs required for the testing of the surge protection circuits on shipboard electrical systems.

  • This paper presents the materials analysis for combination of working modes of Magnetorheological (MR) damper. The materials were selected based on the optimum magnetic field strength at the effective areas in order to obtain a better design of MR damper. The design of electromagnetic circuit is one of the critical criteria in designing MR dampers besides the working mechanism and the types of MR damper. The increase in the magnetic field strength is an indication of the improvement in the damping performance of the MR damper. Eventually, the experimental test was performed under quasi-static loading to observe the performances of MR damper in shear mode, squeeze mode and mixed mode. The results showed that the increment of forces was obtained with the increased current due to higher magnetic flux density generated by electromagnetic coils. In general, it can be summarized that the combination of modes generates higher forces than single mode for the same experimental parameters throughout the study.
