Matrix-induced mass bias and its effect on the accuracy of isotope ratio measurements have been examined for a quadrupole-based inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (Q ICP-MS). Matrix-induced mass bias effect was directly proportional to % mass difference, and its magnitude varied for element and nebulizer flow rate. For a given element and conditions in a day, the effect was consistent. The isotope ratio of Cd106/Cd114 under $200{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ U matrix deviated from the natural value significantly by 3.5%. When Cd 111 and Cd114 were used for the quantification of Cd with isotope dilution (ID) method, the average of differences between the calculated and measured concentrations was -0.034% for samples without matrix ($0.076{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ to $0.21{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ for the period of 6 months). However, the error was as large as 1.5% for samples with $200{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ U. The error in ID caused by matrix could be larger when larger mass difference isotopes are used.

This paper presents the d-q axis equivalent circuit model of an interior permanent magnet (IPM) which includes the iron loss resistance. The model is implemented to be able to run in real-time on the FPGA-based HIL simulator. Power electronic devices are removed from the motor control unit (MCU) and a separated controller is interfaced with the real-time simulated motor drive through a set of proper inputs and outputs. The inputs signals of the HIL simulation are the gate driver signals generated from the controller, and the outputs are the winding currents and resolver signals. This paper especially presents iron loss prediction which is introduced by means of comparing the torque calculated from d-q axis currents and the desired torque; and minimizing the torque difference. This prediction method has stable prediction algorithm to reduce torque difference at specific speed and load. Simulation results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed methods.

In order to minimize the picking time when the products are released from the warehouse, they should be located close to the exit when the products are released. Currently, the warehouse determines the loading location based on the order of the requirement of products, that is, the frequency of arrival and departure. Items with lower requirement ranks are loaded away from the exit, and items with higher requirement ranks are loaded closer from the exit. This is a case in which the delivery time is faster than the products located near the exit, even if the products are loaded far from the exit due to the low requirement ranking. In this case, there is a problem in that the transit time increases when the product is released. In order to solve the problem, we use the idle time of the stocker in the warehouse to rearrange the products according to the order of delivery time. Temporal difference learning method using Q_learning control, which is one of reinforcement learning types, was used when relocating items. The results of rearranging the products using the reinforcement learning method were compared and analyzed with the results of the existing method.

This paper presents an ultra wide band(UWB) mixer using anti-parallel diode pair(APDP) with simulation and measurement results. The proposed mixer adopts the even-harmonic direct conversion mixing, which consists of a couple of filter, in-phase wilkinson power divider, wideband $45^{\circ}$ power divider, and APDP. The m mixer is operating over 3.1 to 4.8 GHz and producing quadrature(I/Q) outputs with a conversion loss of 18 dB and input third order intercept point($IIP_3$) of 15 dBm. I/Q outputs also have difference of about 0.5 dB and phase difference of ${\times}3^{\circ}$ and $P_{1dB}$ of 2 dBm.

With a total 761 contact binary systems in Svechnikov & Kuznetsova(1990)'s catalogue, their physical properties by the mass ratio are investigated - for the early CE type with a common radiative envelope and the late CW type with a common convective envelope. It is found that the early CE type shows a higher temperature difference($\mid$$DeltaT$$\mid$) between the primary and secondary components, and also longer period, than the late CW type. The mass ratio of the CW type are distributed in period, than the late CW type. The mass ratio of the CW type are distributed in smaller ranges, from 0.3 to 0.7, than the CE type. Further, the relation between mass ratio and luminosity for the CW type shows a well-defined linear relation, such as ratio and luminosity for the CW type shows a well-defined linear relation, such as $L_2/L_1$ = 0.01 = 0.89q. In the mass ratio-radii relation, it is confirmed that the physical difference of the CE and CW types is a result of the secondary radius. A new mass ratio-radii relation for the CW type is suggested for both the total radius $({gamma}_1/{gamma}_2$ and the radius ratio $({gamma}_2/{gamma}_1$, respectively.

This study was performed to examine the effects of onion powder supplementation on lipid metabolism in male SD rats fed a high fat and high cholesterol diet. Experimental groups were control (C), high fat fed group (HF), high fat+onion powder intake (OP), high fat+quercetin intake (Q). The HF diet contained 1% cholesterol, 4% lard, 0.3% Na-taurocholate, and quercetin supplementation level was 0.1 g/kg diet. The OP group showed lower body weight gains compared to the control, while there was no significant difference in food efficiency ratio efficiency. When the proportion of fecal bile acids per total lipids was calculated, there was a significant decrease in the HF group compared to the control group, while the levels of the control group was same as that of the OP group. There was no significant difference between the HF and Q groups in bile acid/total lipid in feces. The amount of total cholesterol in liver increased significantly in HF group compared to the control group, while total cholesterol decreased significantly in the OP group compared to the HF group. There was a significant decrease in GOT (glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase) activity in OP and Q groups compared to the HF group. In conclusion, feeding onion powder to hyperlipidemic rates appeared to control weight gain, significantly lower the level of total cholesterol in the liver, and recover GOT activity. We also demonstrated that onion powder intake was more effective than quercetin intake.

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.

The purpose of reinforcement learning is to maximize rewards from environment, and reinforcement learning agents learn by interacting with external environment through trial and error. Q-Learning, a representative reinforcement learning algorithm, is a type of TD-learning that exploits difference in suitability according to the change of time in learning. The method obtains the optimal policy through repeated experience of evaluation of all state-action pairs in the state space. This study chose n-Queen problem as an example, to which we apply reinforcement learning, and used Q-Learning as a problem solving algorithm. This study compared the proposed method using reinforcement learning with existing methods for solving n-Queen problem and found that the proposed method improves the convergence rate to the optimal solution by reducing the number of state transitions to reach the goal.
