This paper is devoted to two new techniques for free vibration analysis of concrete arch dam-reservoir systems. The proposed schemes are quadratic ideal-coupled eigen-problems, which can solve the originally non-symmetric eigen-problem of the system. To find the natural frequencies and mode shapes, a new special-purpose eigen-value solution routine is developed. Moreover, the accuracy of the proposed approach is thoroughly assessed, and it is confirmed that the new scheme is very accurate under all practical conditions. It is also concluded that both decoupled and ideal-coupled strategy proposed in the previous works can be considered as special cases of the current more general procedure.

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a technique for determining the electrical conductivity and permittivity distribution within the interior of a body from measurements made on its surface. One recent application area of the EIT is the detection of breast cancer by imaging the conductivity and permittivity distribution inside the breast. The present standard for breast cancer detection is X-ray mammography, and it is desirable that EIT and X-ray mammography use the same geometry. A forward model of a simplified mammography geometry for EIT imaging was proposed earlier. In this paper, we propose an iterative algorithm for computing the current pattern that will be applied to the electrodes. The current pattern applied to the electrodes influences the voltages measured on the electrodes. Since the measured voltage data is going to be used in the impedance imaging computation, it is desirable to apply currents that result in the largest possible voltage signal. We compute the eigenfunctions for a homogenous medium that will be applied as current patterns to the electrodes. The algorithm for the computation of the eigenfunctions is presented. The convergence of the algorithm is shown by computing the eigencurrent of the simplified mammography geometry.

Ultra Lift Luo Converter (ULC) gained considerable research interest in recent years. The stability analysis of voltage mode and peak current mode controlled ULC in continuous conduction mode is analyzed in this paper. The Eigen value theory is used for the stability analysis of voltage mode controlled ULC. Then to characterize the dynamics of inner current loop, the expressions of closed loop transfer function and loop gain are determined. An algorithm has been developed to analyze the stability of the peak current mode controlled ULC. The theoretical results are correlated with the simulation results obtained using PSIM 9.1(SMARTCTRL 1.0) software. Finally it is proposed to fabricate a prototype and validate the performance by suitable experimental setup.

본 논문에서는 높은 감도의 테라헤르츠 센서로 응용이 가능한 고품질 비대칭 분리고리공진기(ASLR: Asymmetric Split-Loop Resonator) 메타물질의 구조적인 비대칭 정도에 따른 ASLR의 공진특성 변화를 전자기 시뮬레이션을 통하여 분석하였다. 특히, ASLR의 구조적 비대칭성은 높은 품질인자를 갖는 파노공진을 발생시키므로 ASLR의 비대칭성 정도에 따라서 ASLR 고유공진과 파노공진의 공진주파수 변화와 투과계수 및 품질인자의 변화를 분석하였다. 또한, ASLR의 구조적 비대칭성에 따른 ASLR의 공진 특성 변화의 원인을 분석하기 위해 표면전류밀도를 계산하여 ASLR 공진의 공진주파수, 투과계수, 그리고 품질인자가 변화하는 이유를 분석하였다. 이를 통하여 ASLR 고유공진의 표면전류밀도는 이중 극자를 형성하여 높은 방사 손실을 가지게 되므로 품질인자가 낮아지게 되고, 파노공진의 표면전류밀도는 닫힌 모드 또는 사중 극자를 형성하여 이중 극자에 비하여 낮은 방사 손실을 가지므로 파노공진 상태의 ASLR이 높은 품질인자를 가지게 됨을 확인하였다. 이러한 ASLR의 파노공진 특성 분석 결과를 바탕으로 메타물질의 비대칭성을 조절하면 높은 품질인자를 가지는 테라헤르츠 고성능 필터 또는 고감도 센서 개발이 가능하다. 이러한 고감도 고성능 테라헤르츠 소자 개발은 테라헤르츠 메타물질의 실질적인 산업 응용을 유도할 것으로 기대한다.

Free vibration of cross-ply laminated plates using a higher-order shear deformation theory is studied. The arbitrary number of layers is oriented in symmetric and anti-symmetric manners. The plate kinematics are based on higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT) and the vibrational behaviour of multi-layered plates are analysed under simply supported boundary conditions. The differential equations are obtained in terms of displacement and rotational functions by substituting the stress-strain relations and strain-displacement relations in the governing equations and separable method is adopted for these functions to get a set of ordinary differential equations in term of single variable, which are coupled. These displacement and rotational functions are approximated using cubic and quantic splines which results in to the system of algebraic equations with unknown spline coefficients. Incurring the boundary conditions with the algebraic equations, a generalized eigen value problem is obtained. This eigen value problem is solved numerically to find the eigen frequency parameter and associated eigenvectors which are the spline coefficients.The material properties of Kevlar-49/epoxy, Graphite/Epoxy and E-glass epoxy are used to show the parametric effects of the plates aspect ratio, side-to-thickness ratio, stacking sequence, number of lamina and ply orientations on the frequency parameter of the plate. The current results are verified with those results obtained in the previous work and the new results are presented in tables and graphs.

In this research paper, the free vibrational response of laminated composite plates is investigated using a non-polynomial refined shear deformation theory (NP-RSDT). The most interesting feature of this theory is the parabolic distribution of transverse shear deformations while ensuring the conditions of nullity of shear stresses at the free surfaces of the plate without requiring the Shear correction factor "Ks". A fourth-nodded isoparametric element with four degrees of freedom per node is employed for laminated composite plates. The numerical analysis of simply supported square anti-symmetric cross-ply and angle-ply laminated plate is carried out using a special discretization based on four-node finite element method which four degrees of freedom per node. Several numerical results are presented to show the effect of the coupling parameters of the plate such as the modulus ratios, the thickness ratio and the plate layers number on adimensional eigen frequencies. All numerical results presented using the current finite element method (FEM) is presented in 3D curve form.

광섬유전류센서에서 온도변화에 따른 감도변화를 제거하기 위한 연구를 하였다. 센서헤드로는 두개의 원형틀을 수직으로 결합하고 여기에 광섬유를 번갈아 감아서 사용하였다. 이 경우 수직한 원형틀은 광섬유의 고유편광축을 상호수직하게 하므로 감겨진 광섬유에 발생된 선형복굴절량을 상쇄하여 최소화할 수 있었다. 이렇게 제작된 전류센서는 온도에 대해 보다 안정된 성능을 보였다. 센서헤드부의 온도는 약 1시간 40분동안 20-45.deg.C의 느린 변화를 주었다. 이때의 전체적인 센서 오차는 .+-.1.2% 정도였고 500A에서 3시간동안 안정성 측정을 했을 경우 .+-.1%미만의 변화를 보였다. 센서의 헤드부 전후단의 광섬유에 의해서 신호의 요동이 생기는 것을 방지하기 위한 방법으로 센서헤드부에 편광기와 편광분할기를 놓고 리드부와 분리를 했다. 광원으로서는 두개의 레이저 다이오드를 편광이 수직이 되게 배열함으로써 무편광 광원으로서의 효과를 내었다. 신호처리는 각 채널별로 분리를 하여 기계적인 부분에 의한 광손실의 영향을 배제하였다.

This paper presents the design of acoustic resonance free and over current limit during transient state consideration electronic ballast for 1.5kW Metal-Halide Lamp(MHL) that employs frequency modulation (FM) technique. The proposed ballast consists of a Full-Bridge(FB) rectifier, a passive power factor correction (PFC) circuit, a full-bridge inverter, an ignitor using LC resonance and a control circuit for frequency modulation. The frequency modulation technique is the most effective solution to eliminate acoustic resonance among other technique. It spreads power spectrum of lamp to reduce the supplied power spectrum under the energy level of eigen-value frequency. Moreover, the proposed ballast is simple and cost effective above conventional ballast. A new PFC circuit is proposed which combines with LCD type and PCSR filter. A new PFC circuit has higher PF and lower THD than conventional LCD type and secure high reliability. Finally, to protected switching components in transient state, the surge current into ballast is limited by increase the switching frequency. Performance of the proposed ballast was validated through computer simulation using Pspice, experimentation and by applying it to an electronic ballast for a prototype 1.5kW MHL.

In the current work, static and free torsional vibration of functionally graded (FG) nanorods are investigated using Fourier sine series. The boundary conditions are described by the two elastic torsional springs at the ends. The distribution of functionally graded material is considered using a power-law rule. The systems of equations of the mechanical response of nanorods subjected to deformable boundary conditions are achieved by using the modified couple stress theory (MCST) and taking the effects of torsional springs into account. The idea of the study is to construct an eigen value problem involving the torsional spring parameters with small scale parameter and functionally graded index. This article investigates the size dependent free torsional vibration based on the MCST of functionally graded nano/micro rods with deformable boundary conditions using a Fourier sine series solution for the first time. The eigen value problem is constructed using the Stokes' transform to deformable boundary conditions and also the convergence and accuracy of the present methodology are discussed in various numerical examples. The small size coefficient influence on the free torsional vibration characteristics is studied from the point of different parameters for both deformable and rigid boundary conditions. It shows that the torsional vibrational response of functionally graded nanorods are effected by geometry, small size effects, boundary conditions and material composition. Furthermore, for all deformable boundary conditions in the event of nano-sized FG nanorods, the incrementing of the small size parameters leads to increas the torsional frequencies.
