There are no turn-on losses in the series Resonant Converter which operates above the resonance frequency, and the commutation stress on the switched component is low. For a given Series Resonant Converter with specified load resistance, the output voltage is a function of the operation frequency. This paper describes the static and dynamic characteristic analysis of the Series Resonant DC to DC Converter, which is operating above the resonant frequency, with frequency control. For the analysis method, state plane technique is adopted, and the circuit operation is defined from normalized switching frequency, Fsn. Under this condition, circuit performance is analyzed ideally. The validity of the proposed analysis is verified by comparing with experimental results, the stability of the converter is confirmed against small variations around the operating point by conventional frequency domain analysis, and the stress quantity added to switch component is shown.

ABS sensor ring has been manufactured by P/M method using 400 series ferrite stainless steel. The results are as following: It is supposedly sufficient to use for control computer due to good experimental results of magnetic characteristics. Compared with sensor ring made by iron, 400 series ferrite stainless steel has shown a good corrosion resistance without an addition surface treatment. Thus the decreasing production process has been obtained. As a result of hardness and tensile test, 400 series ferrite stainless steel shown a good endurance when it is combined to C/V joint, and has a good hardness properties endurable to sand and pebble impact.

In power transistor switching circuit have shunt snubber(dv/dt limiting capacitor) and series snubber (di/dt limiting inductor). The shunt snubber is used to reduce the turn-off switching loss and the series snubber is used to reduce the turn-on switching loss. Design procedures are derived for selecting the capacitance, inductor and resistance to limit the peak voltage and current values. The action of snubber is analyzed and applied to the design for safety PWM inverter.

In resistance spot welding process, size of molten nuggest have been utilized to assess the integrity of the weld quality. However real-time monitoring of the nugget size is an extremely difficult problem. This paper describes the design of an artificial neural networks(ANN) estimator to predict the nugget size for on-line use of weld quality monitoring. The main task of the ANN estimator is to realize the mapping characteristics from the sampled dynamic resistance signal to the actual negget size through training. The structure of the ANN estimator including the number of hidden layers and nodes in a layer is determined by an estimation error analysis. A series of welding experiments are performed to assess the performance of the ANN estimator. The results are quite promissing in that real-time estimation of the invisible nugget size can be achieved by analyzing the dynamic resistance signal without any conventional destructive testing of welds.

A design procedure for a ship with minimum total resistance has been developed using a numerical optimization method called SQP (Sequential Quadratic Programming) to search for optimized hull form and CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) technique. The friction resistance is estimated using the ITTC 1957 model-ship correlation line formula and the wave making resistance is evaluated using a potential-flow panel method based on Rankine sources with nonlinear free surface boundary conditions. The geometry of hull surface is represented and modified using B-spline surface patches during the optimization process. Using the Series 60 hull ($C_B$ =0.60) as a base hull, the optimization procedure is applied to obtain an optimal hull that produces the minimum total resistance for the given constraints. To verify the validity of the result, the original model and the optimized model obtained by the optimization process have been built and tested in a towing tank. It is shown that the optimal hull obtained around $13\%$ reduction in the total resistance and around $40\%$ reduction in the residual resistance at a speed tested compared with that of the original one, demonstrating that the present optimization tool can be effectively used for efficient hull form designs.

In this paper, we present the results of an experimental study on the effect of polymer support fluid on shaft resistance of offshore bored piles. A series of pullout tests were performed on bored piles installed under various boundary conditions considering different types of grounds and support fluids, and a range of support fluid exposure times. Contrary to previous studies concerning onshore bored piles, a time dependent effect of polymer fluid on shaft resistance was observed in all ground types. The adverse effect of polymer support fluid on the shaft resistance, however, was considerably less than bentonite support fluid for a given exposure time. No significant reduction in shaft resistance was evident when limiting the exposure time of the polymer support fluid to the side wall of the borehole within 2-3 hours. The degree to which the polymer fluid affects shaft resistance seemed to vary with the ground type. A proper consideration should be given to the time dependent effect of polymer fluid on shaft resistance of bored piles installed in offshore construction environment to limit its adverse effect on the pile performance. The practical implications of the findings are discussed.

The internal resistance of microbial fuel cell (MFC) using stainless steel skein for oxidizing electrode was investigated and the factors affecting the voltage generation were identified. We also investigated the effect of power management system (PMS) on the usability for MFC and the removal efficiency of organic pollutants. The performance of a stack microbial fuel cell connected with (PMS) or PMS+LED was analyzed by the voltage generation and organic matter reduction. The maximum power density of the unit cells was found to be $5.82W/m^3$ at $200{\Omega}$. The maximum current density was $47.53A/m^3$ without power overshoot even under $1{\Omega}$. The ohmic resistance ($R_s$) and the charge transfer resistance ($R_{ct}$) of the oxidation electrode using stainless steel skein electrode, were $0.56{\Omega}$ and $0.02{\Omega}$, respectively. However, the sum of internal resistance for reduction electrode using graphite felts loaded Pt/C catalyst was $6.64{\Omega}$. Also, in order to understand the internal resistance, the current interruption method was used by changing the external resistance as $50{\Omega}$, $300{\Omega}$, $5k{\Omega}$. It has been shown that the ohm resistance ($R_s$) decreased with the external resistance. In the case of a series-connected microbial fuel cell, the reversal phenomenon occurred even though two cells having the similar performance. However, the output of the PMS constantly remained for 20 hours even when voltage reversal occurred. Also the removal ability of organic pollutants (SCOD) was not reduced. As a result of this study, it was found that buffering effect for a certain period of time when the voltage reversal occurred during the operation of the microbial fuel cell did not have a serious effect on the energy loss or the operation of the microbial fuel cell.

The electrical characteristics of NMOSFETs with asymmetrical source/drain regions have been expermentally investigated using test devices fabricated by $0.35\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS technology. The performance degradation for asymmetric transistor and its causes are analyzed. The parasitic resistances, such as series resistance of active regions and silicide junction contact resistance, are distributed in parallel along the channel. Depending on source/drain geometry, the array of those resistances is changed, that results the various electrical properties.

We developed 1:1 resistance ratio measurement system for precision measurement of a series-resistor type dc voltage divider. By using active guard technique and exchange technique, any leakage effects, which are one of the most critical error sources, were successfully removed. The best measurement uncertainty with the developed ratio measurement system was estimated to be approximately $10^{-8}\;for\;10\;k{\Omega}\;and\;100\;k{\Omega}$.

Frictional behavior of wire electric discharge machined surfaces of spheroidized annealed STDll steel was investigated. The surfaces were produced with a various series of finish cuts where pulse energy was reduced with increase in the number of finish cuts. Roughness and micro-hardness of the surfaces were also measured. It is observed that the increase in the number of finish cuts produces the surface exhibiting lower frictional resistance followed by higher resistance after considerable wear. Effects of finish cuts on the friction characteristics are discussed with the aid of roughness and micro-hardness of the surfaces.
