Objectives : Repetitive and stereotyped behaviors are core symptoms in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The purpose of our study was to investigate the frequency of motor stereotypes in ASD children and their clinical features. Methods : Among 171 ASD children (age range, 3-15), the ASD group with motor stereotypes was defined according to two items in the Korean version of Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (K-ADI-R). We compared the clinical features, behavior problems and severity of other domains in the K-ADI-R and executive functions between the ASD group with motor stereotypes and the ASD group without motor stereotypes. Results : Ninety (52.6%) of 171 ASD children had motor stereotypes. The ASD group with motor stereotypes had a lower intelligence quotient score (62.23 vs. 84.94, p<.001) compared to the ASD group without motor stereotypes. The ASD group with motor stereotypes had more impairments in the social interaction domain [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) 1.11, p=.001] and communication domain (AOR 1.15, p=.008). Thought problems and lethargy were more frequent in the ASD group with motor stereotypes than the ASD group without motor stereotypes (AOR 2.059, p=.034 ; adjusted OR 1.045, p=.046). However, no significant differences in executive function were observed between the ASD group with motor stereotypes and the ASD group without motor stereotypes. Conclusion : The ASD group with motor stereotypes showed more impairment in social interaction and communication domains, which are core symptoms of autism. Motor stereotypes may indicate greater severity of ASD.

This study deals about the development of fusible core with low melting temperature by addition of ceramic particles. A new concept of salt core was introduced to produce an integrated casting part having a complicated inner shape or requiring under-cut in high pressure die casting or squeeze casting process. The mechanical properties of fusible core were improved due to the addition of ceramic particles which helped to produce fine microstructure. The new technology for the preparation of new fusible core materials which possess high compression strength was established. Addition of ceramics particles increased the mechanical properties of fusible core materials. There was an increasing relationship between percentage of ceramic particles and mechanical strength was existed up to 60%.

The motor applied to electric water pump used in automobiles is the canned type motor structure. The rotor, which is the driving component of the motor, is located in the bulkhead structure of the plastic injection molding, and rotates while immersed in the antifreeze. Plastic Injection Stator is placed on the outside of the bulkhead structure so that the rotor can rotate. The configuration of the rotor consists of magnet, core and shaft. In the case of magnet and core, it is very important to keep the parts sealed because it is a material that is corroded by moisture. When mounted on a vehicle, it must be capable of driving at $120^{\circ}C$ ambient conditions and should not leak under pressure of 1 bar or more. In this paper, we designed and implemented a Leak inspection automation system using helium to check the defects of the electric water pump developed satisfying this condition.

As interest in eco-friendly and fuel-efficient electric vehicles has increased globally, there has also been a growing interest in the efficiency, vibration, and noise of motors for electric vehicles Electric vehicles generally have significantly lower driving ranges per charge compared to the maximum driving range per fueling of internal combustion engine vehicles. Additionally, there are issues with various vibrations and noise generated by the motor that can cause discomfort for passengers. Therefore, research is necessary to reduce losses, vibration, and noise of the motor to improve the driving range of electric vehicles. IPMSM with a purchased design can obtain additional reluctance torque by utilizing the difference in inductance between the d and q axes. However, due to this reluctance torque, torque ripple occurs larger than other motors. The increase in torque ripple also increases noise and vibration. Since the reluctance torque, which is the main cause of torque ripple, is determined by the shape of the motor components, torque ripple can be reduced through shape optimization. In this paper, a rotor shape for reducing torque ripple and core loss that causes vibration, noise, and efficiency to decrease of IPMSM for electric vehicles was proposed. Optimization design was carried out by changing the shape of the q-axis path of the rotor to reduce the difference in inductance of the d and q-axis of the rotor. Finally, in order to verify the validity of the design variables derived through the optimal design, the original model and the improved model were compared through the FEM. Compared to the original model, the improved model's torque verifying ripple was reduced by about 62% and core loss was reduced by about 29%, the superiority of the improved model.

This paper deals with the reduction of cogging torque of a outer-rotor type BLDC motor mainly used for washing machines. The motor comprises permanent magnet outer-rotor and stator with coils and core. This structure inherently produces vibration and cogging torque because of uneven reluctance according to rotation of the rotor. Up to now, adopted a type of 24 magnet pole and 36 slot-stator. This generates high main torque but accompanies comparatively large cogging torque. This paper proposes a 32-pole 36-slot type motor which reduces cogging torque remarkably. The influence of cogging torque is varied according to pole-slot combinations. The characteristic of the motor was obtained by a two-dimensional finite element method coupled with a drive circuit. The performance of the proposed model is superior to that of the existing model because of the reduction of torque ripple and the improvement of back ernf wave form.

The classical literature on SR motor design tends to focus on inner-rotor type motor rather than outer-rotor type motor, and dose not provide a complete procedure for configuration of outer-rotor type SR motor calculations that are also needed in every SR motors design. It is interested in the design of SR motors to shortening the magnet flux path in the iron core for reducing the iron loss. The 5 phases outer-rotor type SR Motor with short magnet flux path is introduced in this paper. For this the rotor of prototype is designed in U-form with 8 rotor poles that are in 4 U-forms from one another separate constructed.

This paper presents the reasonable design parameters of a switched reluctance motor to drive a hybrid electric vehicle by using the equivalent magnetic circuit method. The designed motor can be redesigned by using finite element analysis as a variation of the parameter for the purpose of improving performance. This paper shows that a flat-topped current of a phase can be made from a change of the lamination stack length for high average torque and a lower torque ripple. The change of current falling time as a variation of turn-off angle was shown by finite element analysis. The core loss and copper loss were described. The torque of the redesigned motor is suitable for low and high speed ranges to drive a HEV. which is verified by the speed-torque curve.

This paper presents a direct thrust control scheme for permanent magnet linear synchronous motor(PMLSM) by using digital signal processor(DSP). And a simulation method for the direct thrust control of a permanent magnet linear synchronous motor using the equivalent circuit is presented. The detent force that was obtained by cubic spline method is considered in the simulation. Thrust correction coefficient is utilized to estimate actual thrust on the direct thrust control, which considers the longitudinal end effect due to the finite core length of the permanent magnet linear synchronous motor. The motor self inductance, the initial flux linkage by the permanent magnet is calculated in advance by the finite element analysis, and then the direct control simulation is carried out. As the results, thrust, current and speed are shwon.
