In this study, a collision simulator for rolling stock that considers the plastic deformation of the car body and the dynamic characteristics of a coupler system was developed using Matlab/Simulink. Normally, a coupler system has functions for both connecting the individual car bodies and absorbing the impact energy. A coupler system is composed of a rubber buffer, hydraulic buffer, and deformation tube elements. The coupler system should protect the car body and prevent damage when the shunt speed is less than 10 km/h, which is the regulation speed based on the safety rule for rolling stock. However, if the shunt speed is greater than 10 km/h, a car body is plastically deformed. Therefore, the modeling of the plastic deformation of a car body should be included in a simulator. This collision simulator can provide the design parameters for a coupler system and car body.

We fabricated resistive superconducting fault current limiters (SFCL) based on YBCO thin films grown on 2-inch diameter saphire substrates Two SFCLs with nearly identical properties were connected in series to investigate the simultaneous quench. There was a slight difference in the rate of voltage increase between two SFCL units when they were operated independently. This difference. however, resulted in significantly unbalanced power dissipation between the units. This imbalance was removed by connecting a shunt resistor to an SFCL in parallel. The appropriate values of the shunt resistances were $80{\Omega}$ at $75 V_{rms}$. $100{\Omega}$ at $100 V_{rms}$ and $110{\Omega}$ at $120 V_{rms}$, respectively. Increased power input at high voltages also reduced the initial imbalance in power dissipation. but with increase in film temperature to higher than 200 K.

For the development of superconducting fault current limiters (SFCLs), fault current limiting elements were fabricated out of Bi-2212 bulk tubes and tested. The SFCL elements consisted of tube shaped Bi-2212 bulks and metal shunts for the stabilizers. Firstly, the Bi-2212 bulk tubes were processed based on a design of monofilar coils in order to acquire large resistance and high voltage rating. 300 mm-long Bi-2212 tubes were designed to have the current path of 410 cm in length with 24 turns and 41 mm in diameter. The processed monofilar coil, as designed, had 300 A $I_c$ at 77 K. The fabricated superconducting monofilar coils were affixed to Cu-Ni alloy as that of stabilizers. The Cu-Ni alloys were processed to have the same shape of the superconducting monofilar coils. The Cu-Ni coil had resistivity of 32 ${\mu}{\Omega}$-cm at 77 K and 37 ${\mu}{\Omega}$-cm at 300 K. The metal shunts were attached to the outside of the Bi-2212 monofilar coil by a soldering technique. After the terminals made of copper were attached to both ends of the superconductor-metal shunt composite, the gap between the turns and the surface of the elements was filled with an epoxy and a dense mesh made of FRP in order to enhance the mechanical strength. The completed SFCL elements went through fault tests, and we confirmed that the voltage rating of 143 $V_{rms}$ (E =0.35 $V_{rms}$/cm) could be accomplished.

This paper presents an exant analysis of the class E tuned power amplifier with a shunt inductor. The following performance parameters are determined for optimum operation with any switch duty ratio: the collector current and voltage waveforms, the peak values of collector current and voltage, the output power, the power output capability, and the values of the load network elements. The analysis shows that the maximum power output capability occurs at a duty ratio of 50 percent. The measured collector efficiency of experiments is 93 percent with 0.93W at 1MHz. This amplifier is especially applicable at portable transmitters because its colletor efficiency is extremely high.

This paper presents the structures for a CPW shunt RF switch using MEMS(Micro Electro Mechanical System). Recent development in MEMS technology has made the design and fabrication of micro-mechanical switches as new switching elements. The micro-mechanical switches have low insertion loss, negligible power consumption, and good isolation compared to semiconductor switches. The fabricated structure shows an insertion loss of 2dB at 20GHz When a bias voltages of 12V is apply.

We performed unsymmetrical analysis of a single line-to-ground fault in a three-phase system. The current limiting elements were meander type YBCO stripes coated with Au shunt. When the fault occurred, short circuit currents were effectively limited within 1-2 msec after fault instant. The unsymmetrical rate of fault phase was distributed from 6.4 to 1.4 and most of the fault current flowed in the grounding line due to its direct grounding system.

In this paper, a compact fully printable bandpass filter is suggested for a low-frequency channel 3.2 GHz ~ 3.7 GHz in the Ultra-Wideband (UWB) communication system. It is featured with a small geometry of $0.5{\lambda}_g/15$ and a low insertion loss despite using FR4 as a cheap substrate of a high dielectric loss. This is made possible by generating zeroth-order-resonance (ZOR) from one cell comprising two series resonances obviously separated from one shunt resonance as a third-order bandpass filter. Especially, the series resonance elements are combined with spur-lines bent by 90 degrees, which makes the port-impedance matched well and eliminates spurious hikes in the stopband, while the overall size remains almost unchanged. The design is carried out by setting up the equivalent circuit and the circuit simulation is checked by the full-wave EM analysis. The structure is manufactured and measured to show that the circuit modeling and EM simulation results agree with the measured data.

A two phase chopper system with two separate groups of DC motors for regenerative braking is dealt with in this article. The main circuit consists of two sets of chopping parts, four diodes and two separate groups of DC motors. Although the proposed chopper circuit requires more circuit elements than the conventional two phase chopper system with combined output, it has the following advantages`(1). Ripple frequency of smoothing reactor current becomes twice as high as that of the conventional system, so the continuous current range and the ripple ratio are improved greatly. Therefore, the efficiency becomes even higher, the capacity of commutation equipment is reduced and the inductive interference become less.(2). Load current division becomes equalized. Therefore it is possible to drive not only series motors but also shunt, separately excited and compound motors.

In this paper, a design of planar microwave bias-tee using lumped elements was presented. The bias-tee is composed of 2 blocks; DC block and RF choke. For this design of the bias-tee, a wideband capacitor was used for DC block. For a RF choke, a series connection of inductors which have different SRFs is used for a RF choke. In the RF choke, a series connection of resistor and capacitor was added in shunt to eliminate a loss from a series resonance. The designed bias-tee was implemented by using 1608 SMT chip components. The fabricated bias-tee was measured using Anritsu 3680K fixture which enables to remove an effect of a connector. The fabricated bias-tee presented -15 dB of return loss and -1.5 dB insertion loss at 10 MHz~18 GHz.
