This paper describes the design and implementation of a new diode clamped multilevel inverter for variable frequency drive. The diode clamp multilevel inverter has been widely used for low power, high voltage applications due to its superior performance. However, it has some limitations such as increased number of switching devices and complex PWM control. In this paper, a new topology is proposed. New topology requires only (N-1) switching devices and (N-3) clamping diodes compared to existing topology. A modified APO-PWM control method is used to generate gate pulses for inverter. The proposed inverter topology is coupled with single phase induction motor and its performance is tested by MATLAB simulation. Finally, a prototype model has built and its performance is tested with single phase variable frequency drive.

Compressors are the main source of noise of refrigerators and air-conditioning unit. Recent studies on the sound propagation of rotary compressors showed that the accumulator is a significant source of noise generation. This paper describes a design change of a rotary compressor for noise reduction using topology optimization. Topology optimization has been developed and used to find the most effective structural configuration in the early stage of design procedures. FE model of the rotary compressor composed of all the components is built for the topology optimization. Topology optimization results show that the empirical design for the present structure fail to constrain some resonance modes and a new component is required.

Topology optimization of improved passive shock isolator by controlling its force-deflection relation is proposed. And the final design which is optimized using topology optimization is obtained using shape optimization. The proposed methods are applied to a numerical example using two dimensional-axisymmetric condition. And the performance of finally optimized design is verified through transient analysis using LS-DYNA. The ballistic shock isolator model is developed as a result of topology optimization. The optimized design has more improved shock absorbing capability comparing to the linear shock isolator by about 20%.

A study on the topology optimization of a multi-spectral camera for space-use is presented. The optimization is carried out under self-weight and polishing pressure loading. A multi-spectral camera for space-use experiences degradation of optical image in the space, which can not be detected on the optical test bench on the earth. An optical surface deformation of a primary mirror, which is a principal component of the camera system, is an important factor affecting the optical performance of the whole camera system. In this study, topology optimization of the primary mirror of the camera is presented. As an objective function, a measure of Strehl ratio is used. Total mass of the primary mirror is given as a constraint to the optimization problem. The sensitivities of the objective function and constraint are calculated by direct differentiation method. Optimization procedure is carried out by an optimality criteria method. For the light-weight primary mirror design, a three dimensional model is treated. As a preliminary example, topology optimization considering a self-weight loading is treated. In the second example, the polishing pressure is also included as a loading in the topology optimization of the mirror. Results of the optimized design topology for the mirror with various mass constraints are presented.

STP는 토폴로지 구성방법에 따라 네트워크의 성능이 달라진다. 따라서 효율적인 네트워크 환경을 위하여 최적의 토폴로지를 구성할 필요가 있다. 본 논문은 이더넷에서 스위치들 사이의 효율적인 네트워크 구축을 위한 최적의 토폴로지 구성방법을 제안하였다 루트스위치에서 송신한 프레임을 같은 도메인 안에 있는 스위치들이 프레임을 수신하는 시간을 수학적 모델로 계산하여 최적의 토폴로지 구성 방법을 도출하였다. 그리고 최적의 토폴로지에서의 루트 스위치의 위치에 따른 성능을 분석하였다. 성능 분석 결과 정방형으로 설계된 망에서 루트스위치가 중앙에 위치하게 설계하는 것이 효과적이라는 결론을 얻을 수 있었다.

A new mesh-topology model of IGBT is presented. It can be applied to the research of IGBT's static and dynamic latch-up (du/dt latch-up, overheat latch-up, overload latch-up, overvoltage latch-up) as well as the switching on-off behavior of the device. The overcurrent latch-up is analyzed.

Modern trams with a super capacitor have gained a lot of attention in recent years due to its reliability, convenience, energy conservation and environmental friendliness. Because of its special charging characteristic, the traditional charging structure and control strategy cannot satisfy its charging requirements. This paper presents a new charging topology for fast charging modern trams with a super capacitor and it designs a controller using continuous control set model predictive control (CCS-MPC). There are three contributions in this paper. First, a new charging structure is designed and its mathematics model is derived. The cascade structure is adopted instead of the parallel structure to simplify the control process and to keep the rated power of the controllable part low. Second, a MPC control strategy is proposed to satisfy the charging characteristic. The optimal control signal can be obtained by solving the designed optimization problem. The optimal control signal is related to the discrete control action. In addition, mapping between the continuous control signal and the discrete control action is designed. Third, a semi-physical experimental platform is built to verify the proposed topology and control method. The simulation model and experiment platform are built to verify the correctness of the new structure and its control method. The results obtained show that the new topology can work effectively.

Recent engineering process requires fast development and manufacturing of the products. This paper mainly discusses the process of rapid product development (RPD) from the reverse engineering to the optimal design. A laser scanning system scans a product and the efficient data processing method reduces the scanned point data. The reduced (scanned) points model is transformed to a finite element model without the construction of a CAD model. Since CAD modeling is a time-consuming work, skipping this step can save much time. This FE model is updated from the result based on the structural characteristics from modal test of the real model. For FE model updating, Response Surface Method is adopted. Finally, the updated FE model is optimized using the reliability-based topology optimization, which is developed recently. All these processes are applied to the design of an upper part model of a cellular phone.

본 논문에서는 재료 탄성계수의 공간적 불확실성을 고려한 위상최적화 문제를 다루었다. 88줄로 작성된 MATLAB Code를 사용하여 MBB(messerschmidt-$b{\ddot{o}}lkow$-blohm) model에 대해 5,000개의 추계장 표본을 작성하여 해석에 사용하였다. 재료탄성계수의 추계장 표본은 스펙트럼 모사법을 적용하여 작성하였고, 구조계영역 내에서 정규분포하는 것으로 가정하였다. 해석결과에 대한 통계처리를 통하여 형상최적화의 결과를 나타내는 체적률의 변화도를 추계장의 상관거리에 대하여 나타내었다. 최적형상의 변화도는 상관거리가 작을 경우 크게 산정되었고, 상관거리가 큰 경우에는 적은 값을 나타내었다. 큰 상관거리에서 변화도가 적은 것은 위상최적화가 선형해석에 따르기 때문이다. 따라서 위상최적화 시 구조재료 불확실성의 특성에 따른 고려가 필요한 것으로 사료된다.

Recently, the development of new structural model in fixed partial denture system is required to be started from the conceptual design with low cost, high performance and quality. In this point, a FEM based design of partial denture is used to investigate stress distribution on the durable shape. In this paper, the structural performances of partial dentures were analyzed under three biting forces. The periodontal embedding model is introduced on behalf of the detailed supporting tissue, which is composed of dentin, cortical bone, cancellous bone and periodontal ligament. Using topology optimization, the optimal reinforcement layout of connector was obtained and the detail shape in the fixed partial denture was designed.
