In order to improve the quality of a spindle unit it is important to increase its rotational accuracy. The rotational accuracy of a spindle unit can be defined as the stability or immobility of its spindle axis while rotating. Spindle rotation in the rolling bearings causes the disturbing influence, which leads to the oscillation of a rotation axis. The purpose of this study is to investigate the oscillation sources and find a way to decrease the runout without additional expenses. The main source of oscillation is the interaction between rolling bodies and ring races. The first oscillation source was the out-of-shape imperfection of inner bearing ring. The mutual compensation of oscillation by proper rings orientation was proposed, which sometimes allow to decrease the radial runout of spindle rotation axis by approximate 40％ down. Also the outer ring harmonics were explored as the second oscillation source. The analysis shows the dependency between the number of rolling bodies and the outer ring race harmonics. The conclusion on the orientation of bearing cages and the bearing rings was made, which makes possible to obtain the optimal variant of their mounting in the spindle unit when the rotational accuracy of the spindle is maximal, and the spindle runout considerably less.

SiC MOSFETs have been used to improve system efficiency in high frequency converters due to their extremely high switching speed. However, this can result in undesirable parasitic oscillations in practical systems. In this paper, models of the key components are introduced first. Then, theoretical formulas are derived to calculate the switching oscillation frequencies after full turn-on and turn-off in clamped inductive circuits. Analysis indicates that the turn-on oscillation frequency depends on the power loop parasitic inductance and parasitic capacitances of the freewheeling diode and load inductor. On the other hand, the turn-off oscillation frequency is found to be determined by the output parasitic capacitance of the SiC MOSFET and power loop parasitic inductance. Moreover, the shifting regularity of the turn-off maximum peak voltage with a varying switching speed is investigated on the basis of time domain simulation. The distortion of the turn-on current is theoretically analyzed. Finally, experimental results verifying the above calculations and analyses are presented.

In this paper a 2.4GHz CMOS colpitts type microwave oscillator was designed and fabricated using H-spice and Cadence Spetre. There are 140MHz difference between the oscillation frequency and the resonance frequency of a tank circuit of the designed oscillator. The difference is seemed to be due to the parasitic component of the transistor. The inductors used in this design are the spiral inductors proposed in other papers. Cascode current source was used as a bias circuit of a oscillator and the output transistor of the current source is used as the oscillation transistor. A common drain buffer amplifier was used at the output of the oscillator. The measured oscillation frequency and output power of the oscillator are 2.173GHz and -5.53dBm.

In this work, linear dynamics of a circulating fluid-fueled subcritical reactor system with temperature feedback and external neutron source was modeled and examined. In a circulating fluid-fuel system, the stable region is slightly moved by a circulation fluid effect. The effects of subcriticality and temperature feedback coefficient on the reactor stability were tested by calculating frequency response of neutron density originated from reactivity perturbation or external source oscillation of system. The amplitude transfer function has a different shape near subcritical region due to the exponential term in the transfer function. The results of the study show that at a slightly subcritical region, low frequency oscillation in accelerator current or reactivity can be amplified depending on the temperature feedback. However, as the subcriticality increases, the oscillation becomes negligible regardless of the magnitude of the temperature feedback coefficient.

The relaying algorithm to calculate the fault distance from only transient signal at faults in T/L is presented. In this paper. At faults the oscillation frequency components exist in both voltage and current and these components minimize the input impedance shown in fault point. The equivalent source impedance shown in relaying point is needed to calculate the fault distance using these components. To source impedance, the reflection coefficient between forward wave and backward and the Prony's analysis is also employed to extract the oscillation frequency component from transient signals. The case study show that the new distance relaying algorithm satisfies the high operation speed and high accuracy even if the algorithm uses only transient signals.

The problem of reactivity oscillations for a point reactor constitutes an interesting aspect of nuclear reactor physics and its solution may give important information for dynamic and safety assessments. The present paper considers the problem of a reactivity oscillation for a source-driven system which involves some specific aspects that introduce significant differences with respect to the source-free situation. Assuming a square-wave shape for the reactivity insertion, the solution is derived by a fully analytical approach. The conditions for stability and instability can be identified in a straightforward way by directly studying the stationarity of the power response. Numerical results presented allow to discuss the role of the system kinetic parameters and of the time-shape of the reactivity wave.

Quenched dye laser (QDL), which operates with relaxation oscillation mode, is one of the most powerful source for ultra-short pulse light. In this paper, the output characteristics of QDL is theoretically analyzed by a computer simulation. The QDL is assumed that the laser dye is Rhodamine 6G which has the oscillation wavelength of 590 nrn and that the active length is 5 mm and that the pumping source is XeCllaser which has oscillation wavelength of 308 nm. It is revealed ilim the pulse width of short cavity dye laser reduced less than 1/100 than pumping pulse duration and has the linear relationship with spatial width of pumping beam approximately. In addition, it is revealed that the short cavity dye laser is a powerful candidate of pulse width variable light source, which is adjusted by spatial size of pumping beam_ beam_

Synthetic oscillators are gene circuits in which the protein expression will change over time. The delay of transcription, translation, and protein folding is used to form this kind of behavior. Here, we tried to design a synthetic oscillator by a negative feedback combined with a positive feedback. With the mutant promoter P_LacC repressed by LacIq and P_Lux activated by AHL-bound LuxR, two gene circuits, Os-LAA and Os-ASV, were constructed and introduced into LacI-deleted E. coli DH5α cells. When glucose was used as the carbon source, a low level of fluorescence was detected in the culture, and the bacteria with Os-ASV showed no oscillation, whereas a small portion of those carrying Os-LAA demonstrated oscillation behavior with a period of about 68.3 ± 20 min. When glycerol was used as the carbon source, bacteria with Os-ASV demonstrated high fluorescence value and oscillation behavior with the period of about 121 ± 21 min.

UPFC(Unified Power Flow Controller) consists of two voltage sourced converter(VSC)s inserted into AC system through series and parallel coupling transformer, where two VSCs are linked by capacitor at DC-side. Since VSC acts as an AC voltage source behind a reactance, where both magnitude and phase angle of the source are controllable, UPFC can be represented by the equation related to input-output relation of two VSCs. Voltage control of DC-link capacitor provides the path of real power flow between two VSCs. While UPFC is controlled for maintaining the given reference value in steady state, it should be controlled for damping power oscillation in dynamics. For such a control objective, the control strategy based on the energy function was proposed and has been shown to be effect and robust for damping power oscillation of power system. In this paper, UPFC model based on the VSC was analysed and applied to power-flow control and stability analysis. The control strategy based on the energy function is adopted for damping power oscillation of power system. The effectiveness of proposed control strategy was verified by simulation study

Pressure oscillation caused by the compressibility of entrapped air in dam break flow is analyzed using an open source code, which is a two-phase compressible code for non-isothermal immiscible fluids. Since compressible flows are computed based on a pressure-based method, the code can handle the equation of state of barotropic fluid, which is virtually incompressible. The computed time variation of pressure is compared with other experimental and computational results. The present result shows good agreements with other results until the air is entrapped. As the entrapped air bubbles pulsate, pressure oscillations are predicted and the pressure oscillations damp out quickly. Although the compressibility parameter of water has been varied for a wide range, it has no effects on the computed results, because the present equation of state for water is so close to that of incompressible fluid. Grid independency test for computed time variation of pressure shows that all results predict similar period of pressure oscillation and quick damping out of the oscillation, even though the amplitude of pressure oscillation is sensitive to the velocity field at the moment of the entrapping. It is observed that as pressure inside the entrapped air changes quickly, the pressure field in the neighboring water adjusts instantly, because the sound of speed is much higher in water. It is confirmed that the period of pressure oscillation is dominated by the added mass of neighboring water. It is found that the temperature oscillation of the entrapped air is critical to the quick damping out of the oscillations, due to the fact that the time averaged temperature inside the entrapped air is higher than that of surrounding water, which is almost constant.
