Based on laboratory experiments and numerical simulations, the scale effect of Internal Solitary Wave (ISW) loads on spar platforms is investigated. First, the waveforms, loads, and torques on the spar model at a laboratory obtained by the experiments and simulations agree well with each other. Then, a prototype spar platform is simulated numerically to elucidate the scale effect. The scale effect for the horizontal forces is significant owing to the viscosity effect, whereas it is insignificant and can be neglected for the vertical forces. From the similarity point of view, the Froude number was the same for the scaled model and its prototype, while the Reynolds number increased significantly. The results show that the Morison equation with the same set of drag and inertia coefficients is not applicable to estimate the ISW loads for both the prototype and laboratory scale model. The coefficients should be modified to account for the scale effect. In conclusion, the dimensionless vertical forces on experimental models can be applied to the prototype, but the dimensionless horizontal forces of the experimental model are larger than those of the prototype, which will lead to overestimation of the horizontal force of the prototype if direct conversion is implemented.

This paper presents a new modeling method using lamp output power and the modeling coefficients of the lamp. The proposed method utilizes the lamp modeling coefficients such as equivalent impedance Z(p), coupling coefficient of the transformer k(p), turns ratio of the transformer n(p), and plasma resistance Rp(p) as a function of lamp output power. The equivalent impedance Z(p) was developed from the equivalent resistance Req(p) and equivalent inductance Leq(p) of the lamp. Simulation and experimental results of the proposed model are presented in order to validate the proposed method. The modeling method can use to design an impedance matching circuit for a Class-D inverter.

This paper presents and compares three feedback control strategies for active control of noise inside a 3-D vibro-acoustic cavity. These are a) control strategy based on direct output feedback (DOFB) b) control strategy based on linear quadratic regulator (LQR) to reduce structural vibrations and c) LQR control strategy with a weighting scheme based on structural-acoustic coupling coefficients. The first two strategies are indirect control strategies in which noise reduction is achieved through active vibration control (AVC), termed as AVC-DOFB and AVC-LQR respectively. The third direct strategy is based on active structural-acoustic control (ASAC). This strategy is an LQR based optimal control strategy in which the coupling between the various structural and the acoustic modes is used to design the controller. The strategy is termed as ASAC-LQR. A numerical model of a 3-D rectangular box cavity with a flexible plate (glued with piezoelectric patches) and with other five surfaces treated rigid is developed using finite element (FE) method. A single pair of collocated piezoelectric patches is used for sensing the vibrations and applying control forces on the structure. A comparison of frequency response function (FRF) of structural nodal acceleration, acoustic nodal pressure, and piezoelectric actuation voltage is carried out. It is found that the AVC-DOFB control strategy gives equal importance to all the modes. The AVC-LQR control strategy tries to consume the control effort to damp all the structural modes. It is seen that the ASAC-LQR control strategy utilizes the control effort more intelligently by adding higher damping to those structural modes that matter more for reducing the interior noise.

In this paper, a multi-layer dual-band bandpass filter using aperture-coupling is proposed. Two coupling paths are formed with the two apertures which exist between two dual-mode resonators. The coupling coefficients can be adjusted without changing the shape of resonators. The bandwidth of the second passband can be adjusted without affecting the bandwidth of the first passband using the size of an aperture between stubs of the dual-mode resonator. The aperture coupling mechanism is theoretically analysed. The dual-mode bandpass filter for the 2.4 GHz WLAN, 3.5 GHz WiMax was designed and fabricated. The fabricated filter shows centered 2.45 GHz and 3.5 GHz with 9 % and 8 % of the bandwidth.

In this paper, we developed a frequency-domain diffuse optical imaging (DOI) system for imaging non-invasively using near-infrared (NIR) light sources and detectors. 70-MHz modulation and a homodyne scheme were adopted. By calibration of the coupling coefficients, concurrent detection measurements by 4 detector sets were optimized. We presented experimental reconstruction images of absorption and scattering coefficients in a liquid phantom, located an anomaly in the phantom and determined its optical properties. The images by the multi-channel concurrent detection were improved over the results by single-channel sequential detection. Tomographic slices of absorption and scattering coefficients in the phantom with an anomaly were also presented.

Internal ring beams are primary components of new ring-stiffened cooling towers. In this study, numerical simulation of the internal flow field of a cooling tower with three ring beams under wind-thermal coupling effect is performed. The studied cooling tower is a 220-m super-large hyperbolic indirect natural draft cooling tower that is under construction in China and will be the World's highest cooling tower, the influence of peripheral radiators in operating cooling tower is also considered. Based on the simulation, the three-dimensional effect and distribution pattern of the wind loads on inner surface of the cooling tower is summarized, the average wind pressure distributions on the inner surface before and after the addition of the ring beams are analyzed, and the influence pattern of ring beams on the internal pressure coefficient value is derived. The action mechanisms behind the air flows inside the tower are compared. In addition, the effects of internal ring beams on temperature field characteristics, turbulence kinetic energy distribution, and wind resistance are analyzed. Finally, the internal pressure coefficients are suggested for ring-stiffened cooling towers under wind-thermal coupling effect. The study shows that the influence of internal stiffening ring beams on the internal pressure and flow of cooling towers should not be ignored, and the wind-thermal coupling effect should also be considered in the numerical simulation of cooling tower flow fields. The primary conclusions presented in this paper offer references for determining the internal suction of such ring-stiffened cooling towers.

A novel four-channel narrowband wavelength demultiplexer using integrated four vertical directional coupler structures is proposed and theoretically investigated. Four ridge waveguide with different ridge width are vertically coupled to a strip-loaded waveguide which results four different wavelengths filtered out to each ridge waveguide. In order to reduce the side-lobes, the coupling coefficients are varied along the propagation direction. The spectral responses of channels were found to be quite uniform. An average channel spacing of 7 nm with power coupling efficiency of ~90%, 3-dB passband width of 2 nm, and 20 dB side-lobe suppression ratio was achieved.

Side-by-side offloading operations are widely utilized in engineering practice. The hydrodynamic interactions between two vessels play a crucial role in safe operation. This study focuses on the coupled effects between two floating bodies positioned side-by-side as a shuttle tanker-FPSO (floating production, storage and offloading) system. Several wave directions with different side-by-side distances are studied in order to obtain the variation tendency of the horizontal hydrodynamic coefficients, motion responses and mean drift forces. It is obtained that the coupled hydrodynamics between two vessels is evidently distinguished from the single body case with shielding and exaggerating effects, especially for sway and yaw directions. The resonance frequency and the peak amplitude are closely related with side-by-side separation distance. In addition, the horizontal hydrodynamics of the shuttle tanker is more susceptible to coupled effects in beam waves. It is suggested to expand the gap distance reasonably in order to reduce the coupled drift forces effectively. Attention should also be paid to the second peaks caused by hydrodynamic coupling. Since the horizontal mean drift forces are the most mainly concerned forces to be counteracted in dynamic positioning (DP) system and mooring system, prudent prediction is beneficial in saving consumed power of DP system and reducing tension of mooring lines.

Detachable transformers used in contactless battery chargers have poor power transfer characteristics because they have low coupling coefficients due to their gaps. The ㄷㅓ type core gives a high coupling coefficient in a contactless battery charger compared with standard cores such as EE, EC and UU. In this paper, characteristics of the ㄷㅓ type core is studied. Detailed analyses and comparisons are given based on the sinusoidal operation and square-wave operation. Reductions in output current, voltage and power are stated analytically and numerically. The analyses are verified by experiments conducted on a ZVS converter including a detachable transformer. The analyses and comparison method can be applied to other gaped transformer such as a PCB transformer.
