In order to improve complicated construction and complex control which are disadvantage of optimal PWM technique aimed at harmonic elimination method, this paper presented MRA(Model Reference Adaptive) PWM technique that gatmg signal of inverter is generated by comparing the reference signal with the induced feedback signal at the reference model of load. Design of controller is composed of microprocessor and analog circuit. MRA PWM technique used in the paper is able to compensate the degradation of voltage efficiency to be generated by the ratio of the output voltage to the DC supply voltage being low for using conventional sinusoidal PWM technique. When the trapezoidal signal is employed as the reference signal. the low order harmonics of line current can be reduced and the switching pattern is made by on-line computation using comparatively simple numerical analysis.

The instantaneous power theory have been considered as efficient theory in recent years, because it is easier to understand numerical representation and more soft to control PWM power converter on $\alpha$-$\beta$ stationary reference frame. From the forgoing theory, with regard to the calculating process of compensating reference current, there are many induced components of current/ power, and these components have consequently influence on physical interpretation of instantaneous power theory. Especially, beginners for studing the instantaneous power theory don't have enough informations for standard waveform of induced $\alpha$-$\beta$ components. Therefore, this paper describes simulation works using MATLAB/SIMULINK for $\alpha$-$\beta$ space trajectories and waveforms of $\alpha$-$\beta$ current and power components, induced from the instantaneous power theory. It is respected that the results in this paper are serviceable as basic information to assist beginner for studing the instantaneous power theory.

This paper introduces a mesh continuation scheme for a one-dimensional inverse medium problem to reconstruct the spatial distribution of elastic wave velocities in heterogeneous semi-infinite solid domains. To formulate the inverse problem, perfectly-matched-layers(PMLs) are introduced as wave-absorbing boundaries that surround the finite computational domain truncated from the originally semi-infinite extent. To tackle the inverse problem in the PML-truncated domain, a partial-differential-equations(PDE)-constrained optimization approach is utilized, where a least-squares misfit between calculated and measured surface responses is minimized under the constraint of PML-endowed wave equations. The optimization problem iteratively solves for the unknown wave velocities with their updates calculated by Fletcher-Reeves conjugate gradient algorithms. The optimization is performed using a mesh continuation scheme through which the wave velocity profile is reconstructed in successively denser mesh conditions. Numerical results showed the robust performance of the mesh continuation scheme in reconstructing target wave velocity profile in a layered heterogeneous solid domain.

A dynamic analysis of a horseshoe_shaped tunnel near to cavity was performed to study the effect of the cavity on the dynamic behavior of the tunnel. In order to obtain the dynamic response of the tunnel embedded in a semi-infinite domain, a hybrid numerical technique was primarily developed. A dynamic fundamental solution in frequency domain for multi-layered half planes was derived and subsequently incorporated in the boundary element method. Coupling of the boundary element method for the far field with the finite element method for the near field is made by imposing compatibility condition of a displacement at the interface. The boundary element method is then coupled with the finite element method, which is utilized to model the near field including the tunnel and the cavity. In order to demonstrate the validity of the proposed technique, dynamic responses of single and multiply-layered semi-infinite structural systems are obtained by using the Kicker waveform and investigated in the limestone layer to find how the being and the location of the cavity affect the dynamic characteristics of the system.

An imaging method of seismic sources using time-reversal wave propagation is presented. The method is based on the time-reversal invariance and the spatial reciprocity of the wave equation. Time-reversal wave propagation has been used to image anomalous features of a midium in medical imaging, non destructive testing and waveform tomography. Seismogram is the record whose energy is propagated from the seismic source. If time-reversed seismogram propagates back into the medium, seismic energy is concentrated at the origin time of the event and at the source location. In this work, a staggered-grid finite-difference method of the elastic wave equation is parallelized for 3-D wave propagation simulation. With numerical experiments, we show that the time-reversal imaging will enable us to explore the spatio-temporal history of complex earthquake.

3D seismic data processing methods such as full waveform inversion or reverse-time migration require 3D wave propagation modeling and heavy calculations. We compared efficiency and accuracy of a Xeon Phi coprocessor to those of a high-end server CPU using 3D frequency-domain wave propagation modeling. We adopted the OpenMP parallel programming to the time-domain finite difference algorithm by considering the characteristics of the Xeon Phi coprocessors. We applied the Fourier transform using a running-integration to obtain the frequency-domain wavefield. A numerical test on frequency-domain wavefield modeling was performed using the 3D SEG/EAGE salt velocity model. Consequently, we could obtain an accurate frequency-domain wavefield and attain a 1.44x speedup using the Xeon Phi coprocessor compared to the CPU.

TDOA(time delay of arrival) position estimate from acoustic measurement of artillery shell impact is studied in order to develop a targeting evaluation system. Impact position is calculated from the intersections of hyperbolic estimates based on the least square Taylor series method. The mathematical process of Taylor series estimation is known to be robust. However, the concern lays with the accuracy because it is sensitive to the bias caused by the randomness of measurement situation. The measurement error typically occurs from the distortion of waveform, change of travelling path, and sensor position error. For outdoor measurement, a consideration should be made on the atmospheric condition such as temperature and wind which can possibly change the trajectories of rays of sound. It produces wrong propagation time events accordingly. Ray tracing and optimization techniques are introduced in this study to minimize the bias induced by the ray of sound. The numerical simulation shows that the atmospheric correction improves the estimation accuracy.

An ultrasonic technique was developed to characterize the resonance behavior of a microcantilever operating in a megahertz regime. A high-power ultrasonic pulser and a contact transducer were employed to excite the silicon microcantilever, and a Michelson interferometer was used to obtain the time domain waveform. The natural frequency of the microcantilever was evaluated through the fast Fourier transform of the signal, and a numerical analysis using the finite element method confirmed the measurement data. The present study proposes a novel and facile method to evaluate nanoscale materials and structures with high sensitivity compared to conventional approaches.

In this study, we selected CFRP to construct a canoe hull. A ship design was made using a commercial ship design program, SOLIDWORKS, and a flow analysis of the canoe on a free surface was calculated using STAR-CCM+. A flow field and waveform were obtained in this way. These results were used to check the resistant performance of the canoe. Results showed that if the draft is 0.09 m, it is safe to run at less than 4 m/s, and if draft is 0.24 m, it is safe to run at less than 2 m/s. Moreover, it was confirmed that those speeds can be made by two adults. The developed canoe, which is 20 % lighter in comparison with conventional FRP models, was briefly introduced in this paper.

Source consislency filtering (SCF) is very effective at removing nOIse when only one or a few leads among multi-lead ECG signals are contaminated. When the noise at one or only a few leads are statistically uncorrelated with signals at other leads, SCF seleclIvely removes the noise with a neglIgIble amount of distortion in the original signal waveform. In order to enhance the understanding of this new method, we describe the lheory and implementational details of SCF in this paper. Numerical implementation and test results of SCF on a multi-lead ECG dalabase show that SCF is a new kind of adaptive filters utilizmg spatial as well as temporal information in multi-c.hannel signals origmatmg from a single source. We also describe the limitations and future improvements in using SCF.
