This article deals with the problem of estimation of the population mean in presence of multi-auxiliary information in two occasion rotation sampling. A multivariate exponential ratio type estimator has been proposed to estimate population mean at current (second) occasion using information on p-additional auxiliary variates which are positively correlated to study variates. The theoretical properties of the proposed estimator are investigated along with the discussion of optimum replacement strategies. The worthiness of proposed estimator has been justified by comparing it to well-known recent estimators that exist in the literature of rotation sampling. Theoretical results are justified through empirical investigations and a detailed study has been done by taking different choices of the correlation coefficients. A simulation study has been conducted to show the practicability of the proposed estimator.

We introduce optimization algorithms using Bregman Divergence for solving non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) problems. Bregman divergence is known a generalization of some divergences such as Frobenius norm and KL divergence and etc. Some algorithms can be applicable to not only NMF with Frobenius norm but also NMF with more general Bregman divergence. Matrix Factorization is a popular non-convex optimization problem, for which alternating minimization schemes are mostly used. We develop the Bregman proximal gradient method applicable for all NMF formulated in any Bregman divergences. In the derivation of NMF algorithm for Bregman divergence, we need to use majorization/minimization(MM) for a proper auxiliary function. We present algorithmic aspects of NMF for Bregman divergence by using MM of auxiliary function.

This research presents a new active auxiliary resonant snubber with for induction heating PWM high frequency inverter solving the problem of induction heating PWM high frequency inverter circuit which is using widely in the practical application of an induction heating apparatus, the soft switching operation and power control are impossible when the lowest power supply in the active auxiliary resonant snubber with for induction heating PWM high frequency inverter. The inverter circuit which is attempted by the on-off operation of a switch has the effect of reducing the power loss due to soft switching and high frequency switching. This confirms that power regulation is possible on a continuous basis from 0.25[kW] to 2.84[kW] where the duty factor(D) changes from 0.08 to 0.3 under zero current switching which operates by an asymmetrical pulse width modulating control. The power conversion efficiency is 95[%]. Due to these results, the active auxiliary resonant snubber for an induction heating PWM high frequency inverter is considered effective as a source of induction heating.

This study proposes a new type of active-clamp forward-flyback converter with two transformers that operate in forward and flyback modes during on and off times, respectively, instead of not using an output inductor. The main switch can be turned on with zero-voltage switching (ZVS) using the leakage inductance of the transformer and the output capacitor of the main switch. The leakage inductance should be increased to ZVS. However, the ringing between the leakage inductance of the transformer and the parasitic output capacitance of the secondary side rectifier switches results in a serious voltage spike. A forward-flyback converter employing auxiliary inductor and auxiliary diode is proposed to overcome the problem. The operational principles are analyzed in detail and validated through experiments with a 385 V-to-53 V/37 A prototype.

Is this paper the selection of a set of process plans is considered for a flexible manufacturing systems. This problem arises in the metal working industry when numerical controlled(N/C) machines are used to manufacture parts. In this paper a new concept to reduce the size of problem is proposed. A corresponding Integer programming model is formulated. The model formulated is to minimize corresponding manufacturing cost and minimize the number of tools and auxiliary devices such as fixtures, grippers, and feeders.

The sway control problem of the pendulum motion of the container crane hanging on the trolley, which transports containers from the container ship to the truck, is considered in this paper. In the container crane control problem, the main issue is to suppress the residual swing motion of the container at the end of the acceleration, deceleration or the case of that the unexpected disturbance input exists. For this problem, in general, the trolley motion control strategy is introduced and applied to real plants. In this paper, we suggest a new type of swing motion control system for a crane system in which a small auxiliary mass is installed on the spreader. The actuator reacting against the auxiliary mass applies inertial control forces to the spreader of the container crane to reduce the swing motion in the desired manner. In this paper, we consider that the length of the rope varies is we design the anti-sway control system based on LMI(linear matrix inequality) approach. And, it will be shown that the proposed control strategy is useful and it can be easily applicable to the real world. So, in this study, we investigate usefulness of the proposed anti-sway system and evaluate system performance from simulation and experimental studies.

In this study, most of famous algorithms for the corner problem are listed. By comparing these with implemented codes and theoretical dissections, new algorithms are developed. These algorithms are combined by the existing auxiliary equations. All relating algorithms are numerically tested with 3 problems. Two problems have well-known analytical solutions and the result of another example is compared with the one of the published paper. The conducted research reveals the characteristics of existing algorithms and demonstrates newly developed algorithms can produce a reasonable solution by reflecting various type of boundary conditions.

A geometrical inverse heat conduction problem is solved for the development of Infrared Computerized-Axial-Tomography (IR CAT) Scan by using a boundary element method in conjunction with regularization procedure. In this problem, an overspecified temperature condition by infrared scanning is provided on the surface, and is used together with other conditions to solve the position of an unknown boundary (cavity). An auxiliary problem is introduced in the solution of this problem. By defining a hypothetical inner boundary for the auxiliary problem domain, the cavity is located interior to the domain and its position is determined by solving a potential problem. Boundary element method with regularization procedure is used to solve this problem, and the effects of regularization on the inverse solution method are investigated by means of numerical analysis.

Diode rectifiers have been widely used for an AC to DC converter. But a big problem is that they include large harmonics components in the input currents. A 12-pulse configuration with phase shifting transformer is useful for reducing them. however, it still includes the ($12{\pm}1$)th (m; integer) harmonics in the input currents. In this paper, we propose a single-phase square wave auxiliary voltage supply which is inserted in the middle DC bus. It reduces harmonics especially the 11th and 13th and the harmonic characteristic becomes almost equivalent to a 24-pulse rectifier. Theoretical analysis of the combined 12-pulse diode rectifier with the auxiliary supply is presented and a control method of the auxiliary supply is proposed. The reduction in the input current harmonics is verified by simulation using software PSIM.
