The SRM (Switched Reluctance Motor) has a more inherent simple mechanical structure, greater ruggedness and higher efficiency than a conventional AC motor. It is for these reasons that SRM is widely applied in an extensive range of industrial applications. In this paper, SRM is designed and analyzed for EPS (Electrical Power Steering) application. Electrical power steering in a vehicle plays the role of reducing a driver's handling control power. For proper design, a FEM analysis is implemented according to the rotor structure. Using both a FEM and a magnetic circuit analysis, a designed motor is simulated and tested. The effectiveness of the suggested SRM drive for EPS application is verified by the prototype motor drive tests.

The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is an older member of the electric machines family. Its simple structure, ruggedness and inexpensive manufacturing potential make it extremely attractive for industrial applications. However, these merits are overshadowed by its inherent high torque ripple, acoustic noise and difficulty to control. In this paper, a control strategy of the angle position control for the SRM drive based on fuzzy logic is illustrated. The input control parameter, the output control parameter and fuzzy control with FAM table formulation strategy are described and simulated with control patterns, and the decision form of the fuzzy control is illustrated and simulated, and the scope of implementing in a Fuzzy based ASIC chip is enlightened with literature support.

Switched reluctance generators(SRGs) attract much attention in the generator because of high efficiency, simplicity, and ruggedness. They require rotor position information In determine the turn-on and turn-off angle, but the rotor position sensor is less tolerant of extreme environmental conditions, such as high temperature or dust, so the position sensor is limited and undesirable. This paper describes a new approach to estimate the rotor position from the measured terminal voltages and currents of the SRG. The proposed method is based on the instantaneous inductance of the SRG. The proposed method is verified by computer simulations and experiments.

The low cost, ruggedness, and reliability of switched reluctance motor(SRM) drive makes them potentially suitable for many industrial applications. But the generation of a high-level torque ripple and the acoustic noise restricts the practical application range. This paper analyzes the torque characteristic of SRM according to rotor pole arc and the effect of turn-on and turn-off angles to reduce the torque ripple. The simulation result shows the different torque characteristic of each cases.

New inverter motor drive systems consume 30%~50% less energy compared to existing motor drive systems. For inverter motor drive systems, the development of a 1200V high side driver is critical. This paper presents an advanced 1200V high side driver with low power consumption and high ruggedness. This solution implements a high voltage level shifter which consumes low power by adding a clamped VGS LDMOS driver to the conventional short pulse generator. Moreover, this paper proposes a highly rugged 1200V LDMOS which improves SOA by limiting the hole current. This paper could be applied to smart power modules used for HVAC (heating, ventilation, and airconditioning) and industrial inverters. Consequently, this paper will provide design engineers with an understanding of how they can make a significant contribution to worldwide energy savings.

본 논문에서는 직접조작 방법을 이용하여 대화형 유전자 알고리즘(IGA)의 진화성능을 향상시키고 세대를 반복하면서 다양한 해를 얻을 수 있음을 NK-Landscape를 이용해 분석한다. 또한 NK모델을 이용하여 직접조작의 진화과정을 분석하기 위한 IGA 인터페이스를 생성한다. IGA를 이용한 진화는 특성상 적온 수의 개체와 세대수로 제한되기 때문에 지역해에 빠질 수 있는 문제점이 있다. 이러한 IGA 의 제약사창을 극복하는 방법으로 직접조작을 이용할 수 있으며 이 방법은 사용자가 원하는 개체를 생성할 수 있도록 진화과정에서 유전자를 직접 변경한다. IGA 에서 진화성능의 향상과 다양한 해외 생성을 분석하기 위하여 진화연산자인 교차, 돌연변이와 직접조작 방법의 성능을 비교 분석한다. Kauffman이 제안한 NK-Landscape로 진화과정에서 해공간이 얼마나 "ruggedness" 한지와 다양한 진화연산자에서 어떤 성능을 갖는지 분석할 수 있다 실험을 통해 3D 꽃 디자인 문제에서 NK-landscape기반 IGA인터페이스를 이용하여 IGA 해공간을 분석하고 교차, 돌연변이와 직접조작 방법의 성능을 비교함으로써 직접조작 방법으로 더 빠른 시간에 다양한 최적해를 찾을 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

A rapid, selective and sensitive reversed-phase HPLC method for the determination of glipizide in human serum was validated and applied to the pharmacokinetic study of glipizide. Glipizide and internal standard, tolbutamide, were extracted from human serum by liquid-liquid extraction with benzene and analyzed on a Nova Pak $C_{18}\;60{\AA}$ column with the mobile phase of acetonitrile-potassium dihydrogen phosphate (10 mM, pH 3.5) (4:6, v/v). Detection wavelength of 275 nm and flow rate of 0.7 ml/min were fixed for the study. The assay robustness for the changes of mobile phase pH, organic solvent content, and flow rate was confirmed by $3^3$ factorial design using a fixed glipizide concentration (500 ng/ ml) with respect to its peak area and retention time. And also, the ruggedness of this method was investigated at three different laboratories using same quality control (QC) samples. This method showed linear response over the concentration range of 10-1000 ng/ml with correlation coefficient greater than 0.999. The lower limit of quantitation using 0.5 ml of serum was 10.0 ng/ml, which was sensitive enough for pharmacokinetic studies. The overall accuracy of the quality control samples ranged from 82.6 to 105.0% for glipizide with overall precision (% C.V.) being 1.13-13.20%. The percent recovery for human serum was in the range of 85.2 93.5%. Stability studies showed that glipizide was stable during storage, or during the assay procedure in human serum. The peak area and retention time of glipizide were not significantly affected by the changes of mobile phase pH, organic solvent content, and flow rate under the conditions studied. This method showed good ruggedness (within 15% C.V.) and was successfully used for the analysis of glipizide in human serum samples for the pharmacokinetic studies at three different laboratories, demonstrating the suitability of the method.

A rapid, selective and sensitive reversed-phase HPLC method for the determination of a major metabolite of terfenadine, fexofenadine, in human serum was developed, validated, and applied to the pharmacokinetic study of terfenadine. Fexofenadine and internal standard, haloperidol were extracted from human serum by liquid-liquid extraction with acetonitrile and analyzed on a $Symmetry^{TM}$ C8 column with the mobile phase of 1% triethylamine phosphate (pH 3.7)-acetonitrile (67:33, v/v, adjusted to pH 5.6 with triethylamine). Detection wavelength of 230 nm for excitation, 280 nm for emission and flow rate of 1.0 mL/min were fixed for the study. The assay robustness for the changes of mobile phase pH, organic solvent content, and flow rate was confirmed by $3^{3}$ factorial design using a fixed fexofenadine concentration (50 ng/mL) with respect to its peak area and retention time. In addition, the ruggedness of this method was investigated at three different laboratories using same quality control (QC) samples. This method showed linear response over the concentration range of 10-500 ng/mL with correlation coefficients greater than 0.999. The lower limit of quantification using 0.5 mL of serum was 10 ng/mL, which was sensitive enough for the pharmacokinetic studies of terfenadine. The overall accuracy of the quality control samples ranged from 95.70 to 114.58% for fexofenadine with overall precision (% C.V.) being 3.53-14.39%. The relative mean recovery of fexofenadine for human serum was 90.17%. Stability studies (freeze-thaw, short-term, extracted serum sample and stock solution) showed that fexofenadine was stable during storage, or during the assay procedure in human serum. However, the storage at $-70^{\circ}C$ for 4 weeks showed that fexofenadine was not stable. The peak area and retention time of fexofenadine were not significantly affected by the changes of mobile phase pH, organic solvent content, and flow rate under the conditions studied. This method showed good ruggedness (within 15% C.V.) and was successfully used for the analysis of fexofenadine in human serum samples for the pharmacokinetic studies of orally administered Tafedine tablet (60 mg as terfenadine) at three different laboratories, demonstrating the suitability of the method.
