Switched-inductor (SL) Z-source three-level inverter is a novel high power topology. The SL based impedance network can boost the input dc voltage to a higher value than the single LC impedance network. However, as all the neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverters, the SL Z-source three-level inverter has to balance the neutral-point (NP) potential too. The principle of the inverter is introduced and then the effects of NP potential unbalance are analyzed. A NP balancing method is proposed. Other than the methods for conventional NPC inverter without Z-source impedance network, the upper and lower shoot-through durations are corrected by the feedforward compensation factors. With the proposed method, the NP potential is balanced and the voltage boosting ability of the Z-source network is not affected obviously. Simulations are conducted to verify the proposed method.

Objectives: The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of drinking alcohol on bio-electrical potential at twelve source points. Methods: Twenty healthy adults were assigned to alcohol and water groups by a random cross-over design. Bio-electrical potential at twelve source points were measured before and after drinking alcohol or water and the change of bio-electrical potential was analyzed and compared between the alcohol and the water groups. Results: Bio-electrical potential at LI4, ST42, KI3, PC7, TE4, GB40, LR3 in the alcohol group was significantly increased compared to those in the water group. Conclusions: Drinking alcohol increased bio-electrical potential at source points of LI, ST, KI, PC, TE, GB and LR in healthy human subjects.

This paper describes power potential field method for the collision-free path planning of stereo-vision based mobile robot. Area based stereo matching is performed for obstacle detection in uncertain environment. The repulsive potential is constructed by distributing source points discretely and evenly on the boundaries of obstacles and superposing the power potential which is defined so that the source potential will have more influence on the robot than the sink potential when the robot is near to source point. The mobile robot approaches the goal point by moving the robot directly in negative gradient direction of the main potential. We have investigated the possibility of power potential method for the collision-free path planning of mobile robot through various experiments.

In this paper, we present a method to evaluate source locations and distributed region which is specified brain activity, as indicated by locations and strengths of intracranial sources, using potential gradients of interpolation polynomials and topographic mapping of the EEG records. This method can analyze the variance of source temporally or spatially and leads to enable a quantitative evaluation of potential gradients drawing methods which is now being used in the clinic. In the result, we obtained the overall potentials distribution on the entire scalp and the information of potential source locations from the EEG records of a patient which was known to epilepsy.

Statistical trajectory analysis has been widely used to identify potential source regions for chemically and radiatively important chemical species in the atmosphere. The most widely used method is a statistical source-receptor model developed by Stohl (1996), of which the underlying principle is that elevated concentrations at an observation site are proportionally related to both the average concentrations on a specific grid cell where the observed air mass has been passing over and the residence time staying over that grid cell. Thus, the method can compute a residence-time-weighted mean concentration for each grid cell by superimposing the back trajectory domain on the grid matrix. The concentration on a grid cell could be used as a proxy for potential source strength of corresponding species. This technical note describes the statistical trajectory approach and introduces its application to estimate potential source regions of $CO_2$ enhancements observed at Korean Global Atmosphere Watch Observatory in Anmyeon-do. Back trajectories are calculated using HYSPLIT 4 model based on wind fields provided by NCEP GDAS. The identified $CO_2$ potential source regions responsible for the pollution events observed at Anmyeon-do in 2010 were mainly Beijing area and the Northern China where Haerbin, Shenyang and Changchun mega cities are located. This is consistent with bottom-up emission information. In spite of inherent uncertainties of this method in estimating sharp spatial gradients within the vicinity of the emission hot spots, this study suggests that the statistical trajectory analysis can be a useful tool for identifying anthropogenic potential source regions for major GHGs.

We present two high-order potential flow models for the evolution of the interface in the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in two dimensions. One is the source-flow model and the other is the Layzer-type model which is based on an analytic potential. The late-time asymptotic solution of the source-flow model for arbitrary density jump is obtained. The asymptotic bubble curvature is found to be independent to the density jump of the fluids. We also give the time-evolution solutions of the two models by integrating equations numerically. We show that the two high-order models give more accurate solutions for the bubble evolution than their low-order models, but the solution of the source-flow model agrees much better with the numerical solution than the Layzer model.

본 논문에서는 상용전원이 침수되었을 경우, 이에 의한 인체 감전의 위험성을 실증실험을 통해 검토하였다. 실험을 위해 한쪽 벽면에 노출된 충전부가 설치된 모의수조를 구축하고 내부에 도전성 수용액을 채운 후, 전원으로부터의 거리, 방향, 도전성 수용액의 전도율 및 수위에 따른 전위를 측정하였다. 실험 결과 수중에 설치된 전원장치로 인한 전위분포는 거리에 따라 달라지지만, 침수 수용액의 도전율, 노출된 충전부로부터의 각도 및 측정높이는 전기적으로 미치는 영향이 거의 없음이 확인되었다.

시각 및 손가락의 전기자극에 의해 머리표면에서 발생하는 유발전위를 검출하여 Source Tracing Method를 이용하여 뇌의 시각인지영역 및 손가락 감각인지영역을 추정하였다. 본 과정에서 유발전위 검출방식은 average method를 이용하였고, 흥분뉴런군에 대한 물리적 모델로 Single Current Dipole Model을 이용하고, 머리기하에 대한 3중구각모델을 이용하여 Forward Problem을 풀었다. Inverse Problem은 current dipole의 6개의 parameter에 대한 Least Square Error Method를 이용하여 신견흥분의 위치를 추정하였다. 이러한 결과와 생리학적으로 밝혀진 시각 및 체성감각 신경로와의 비교결과 유사성이 확인되었다.

미세플라스틱은 5 mm 미만의 플라스틱 조각으로서 의도적으로 제조한 1차 미세플라스틱과 물리 화학적 파쇄나 분해에 의해 만들어진 2차 미세플라스틱으로 나눌 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 인간의 활동으로 인해 미세해진 플라스틱을 발생시키는 배출원을 미세플라스틱의 1차 배출원으로 정의했다. 본 연구에서 미세플라스틱의 1차 배출원을 문헌을 이용하여 정리하고, 각 배출원에서의 발생잠재량을 추정하고자 하였다. 그 결과, 6만 3천~21만 6천 ton/year의 미세플라스틱이 환경으로 유입되는 것으로 나타났다. 그중 선박수송, 타이어분진, 세탁에 의한 배출이 큰 비중을 차지하였다.

$BCl_3-Cl_2$ 플라즈마에서 이온 강화 식각 시 source power에 따른GaAs(100)의 표면 형태 변화를 연구하였다. Floating potential에서는 이온 포격(bombardment)이 거의 없기 때문에, 화학적 반응에 의존한 순수한 습식 식각에 의해 나타나는 것과 같이 <110> 능선과 {111} facet으로 이루어진 표면이 관찰 되었다. 이러한 형태는 식각 시작후 1분 이내에 형성되기 시작하여 시간이 지남에 따라 커진다. 동일한 압력에서 source power를 변화시키면 식각된 표면이 다른 형태를 보인다. 100 W 정도의 낮은 source power에서는 결정학적 표면이 형성되지 않지만, 900 W 정도의 높은 source power에서는 결정학적 표면이 잘 형성된다. 이것은 건식 식각에 필수적인 여기된 반응성 물질의 양이 source power에 크게 좌우되기 때문이다. 높은 source power에서는 반응성 물질의 농도가 높아지고, 열역학적으로 가장 안정한 GaAs(100) 표면이 형성 된다. 반면에 반응성 물질이 부족할 경우에는 표면 형태는 sputtering에 의해 결정된다. Scaling theory에 기초한 표면의 통계적 분석 적용 시, 두개의 spatial exponent가 발견 되었다. 하나는 1 보다 작고 원자 수준의 표면형태 형성 기구에 의해 결정되고, 다른 하나는 1보다 크며 facet 형성 기구와 같이 큰 규모의 형태 형성 기구에 의한 결과로 생각된다.
