The development of a tilting train with construction of electric line on the conventional railway is required for speed-up on the conventional railway with many curving sections. For development of tilting train, the study and development of the tilting system and tilting bogie having the different mechanism with a general high speed train will play a main role for improving the technology in the field of Korean railway. The study and development of the pantograph tilting mechanism in order to keep a good contact behavior between a pantograph and a contact wire by tilting a pantograph on the opposite direction of the vehicle tilting direction. In this study, we analyzed the aerodynamic characteristic of a developing pantograph on the tilting train and obtained the contact force with catenary by aerodynamic lift force by the aerodynamic analysis. We also performed the numerical analysis for design the device controlling lift force on a pantograph. From the aerodynamic simulation and parameter study for a device to control the lift force, we will suggest the various shape and the optimal shape of it corresponding to a developing tilting pantograph. The Fluent software is used for the calculation of flow profile in this study.

This paper describes the development of the intelligent gripper with two 3-axis force sensor that can measure forces Fx, Fy, Fz simultaneously, for stably grasping an unknown object. In order to grasp an unknown object using an intelligent gripper softly, it should measure the force in the gripping direction and the force in the gravity direction, and perform the force control using the measured farces. Thus, the intelligent gripper should be composed of 3-axis force sensor that can measure forces Fx, Fy, Fz at the same time. In this paper, the intelligent gripper with two 3-axis force sensor was manufactured and its characteristic test was carried out. The fabricated gripper could grasp an unknown object stably. Also, the sensing element of 3-axis force sensor was modeled and designed with five parallel-plate beams, and 3-axis force sensor for the intelligent gripper was fabricated. The characteristic test of the made sensor was carried out.

Recently, according to the industrial development relative to multimedia, demand of display system is radically increase, thus development for power supply of back-lighting is advanced lively. Fluorescent lamp operated at high frequency by the electronic ballast provide benefits like unnoticeable flicker effect and higher luminous efficiency. This paper presents analysis of Push-Pull type resonant inverter for CCFL drive for stable characteristic and life improvement of fluorescent lamp operated at high frequency. Also it has proposed design procedure of Current-Fed type resonant inverter. On the basis of equivalent circuit, component characteristic and suitable region of operation frequency from simulation using Matlab and Pspice is predicted. Suitability of applied equivalent model and validity of design process from the experimental results with CCFL inverter.

This paper describes development of hardware simulator for the PMSG wind power system, which was designed considering wind characteristic, blade characteristic and blade inertia compensation. The simulator consists of three major parts, such as wind turbine model using induction motor, PMSG generator, converter-inverter set. and control system. The turbine simulator generates torque and speed signals for a specific wind turbine with respect to given wind speed. This torque and speed signals are scaled down to fit the input of 2kW PMSG. The PMSG-side converter operates to track the maximum power point, and the grid-side inverter controls the active and reactive power supplied to the grid. The operational feasibility was verified by computer simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC, and the implementation feasibility was confirmed through experimental works with a hardware set-up.

In this paper we are to explain the development of circuit breaker characteristic tester for 25.8kV Gas Insulated Switchgear. Because of hermetically sealed cubicle, we have the difficulties of installation and usage of tester. Therefore we developed measuring tester and software. This tester can measure CB close/trip time, coil current, stroke, chattering time. And it has CB positive/ negative discrimination program, trend management program, DB management program.
