The flooding, especially in channel, is one of the critical issue to put proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) to practical use. In this paper, channel flooding was investigated the pressure difference at cathode channel outlet. A ratio of pressure difference changes to 25, 50% as its variation rate. The pressure variable rate is reflected in dimensionless number FN. As a result, modified dimensionless number $FN^*$ correctly predicted the channel flooding. This study analyzes that a variety of pressure difference is how to affect flooding at the cathode of the PEMFC.

This study proposes a neural network for solving optimization problems such as the TSP (Travelling Salesman Problem), scheduling, and line balancing. The Hopfield network has been used for solving such problems, but it frequently gives abnormal solutions or non-optimal ones. Moreover, the Hopfield network takes much time especially in solving large size problems. To overcome such disadvantages, this study adopts nodes whose outputs changes with a fixed value at every evolution. The proposed network is applied to solving a TSP, finding the shortest path for visiting all the cities, each of which is visted only once. Here, the travelling path is reflected to the energy function of the network. The proposed network evolves to globally minimize the energy function, and a ...

Depending on the status of the engine oil, the dielectric constant is changed. Dielectric constant of oil is related to the characteristic impedance of the probe and the characteristic impedance of the probe determines the reflected signal. In this paper, we derive an equivalent circuit of the probe and using the dielectric constant obtained by measuring the capacitance, the theoretical reflection coefficient of the probe was calculated. In the results, if the engine oil is deteriorated, we can see that the reflection coefficient is increased.

In this paper, we proposed force reflection method using joystick or controlling rehabilitation assisting mobile robot. We defined reflected orce equation as two terms. One is distance between mobile robot and obstacle, the other is speed of rehabilitation assisting robot. And we found the each gain value which guarantees stable navigation of robot. And we experimented simulation with simulation program supporting virtual 2-D map. Through the experiments, we confirmed force reflection algorithm is efficient when controlling rehabilitation assisting robot.

An apparatus for measuring oil oxidation was developed, which is capable of being mounted to mechanical devices for detecting power of fluorescent light reflected from oil in real time as an indication of the oil oxidation. This device has an advantage over conventional fluorescence spectrometers where the thin film is required for the measurement. Clean and used oil samples (mineral and synthetic oils) were tested by the developed apparatus that calculates a fluorescence quantum yield and a light absorption coefficient of the oil based upon the signals from the two light-receiving members and evaluates the degree of oil oxidation of test oils based on the fluorescence quantum yield. Results generally show that the developed device is able to effectively evaluate oil oxidation characteristics on-site in the field.

In this study, transmission and reflection of multi-directional random waves propagating over multi-arrayed submerged breakwaters are investigated using eigenfunction expansion method. The numerical analysis on the wave energy reflection of submerged breakwaters with various crown widths is carried out. Strong wave reflection is occurred at the Bragg reflection condition of the peak frequency. When relative heights and crown widths of breakwaters are equal to 0.6 and 0.4h, respectively, more than 25% of wave energy is reflected to off shore.

The high power RF transmission line components are required for transmitting MW level RF power continuously in RF heating and current drive system which heat the plasma and produce plasma current in fusion reactor The liquid stub and phase shifter is proposed as the superior to the conventional stub and phase shifter. Experimental results show that they are reliable and easy to operate compared to the conventional stub and phase shifter. There is no distortion of reflected power during the raising of the liquid level. RF breakdown voltage is over 40kV. Temperature increment of the liquid is expected not to be severe. These results verify that the liquid stub and phase shifter can be used reliably in the high power continuous RF facilities.

In the present investigation, a plane P (longitudinal) wave is made incident upon a transversely isotropic magnetothermoelastic solid slab of uniform thickness, interposed between two different semi-infinite viscoelastic solids. The transversely isotropic magnetothermoelastic sandwiched layer is homogeneous with combined effects of two temperature, rotation and Hall current in the context of GN Type-II and Type-III (1993) theory of thermoelasticity. The amplitude ratios of various reflected and refracted waves are obtained by using appropriate boundary conditions. The effect of energy dissipation on various amplitude ratios of longitudinal wave with angle of incidence are depicted graphically. Some cases of interest are also deduced from the present investigation.

It is known that big brown bats can distinguish echo of a prey at various angles. In this paper, we suggest a new object localization strategy using ultrasonic echolocation. We calculate the relative energy ratio between a high frequency component of ultrasound signal and a low frequency component of ultrasound signal for a target object. We found the measure depends on bearing angle of the object in space. We also tested energy ratio of echoed FM ultrasound signals depending on frequency, based on cross-correlation. It can determine the relative angular position of objects even though the reflected signals are congested form each object.

다모선 계통의 정확한 과도 안정도 직접해석을 위해 댐핑영향은 고려해야 할 중요한 요소 중의 하나이나 일반화가 어려워 최근까지 무시되어 왔다. 본 논문에서는 시스템을 나타내는 함수들의 적분 관계식들을 고려함으로써 다모선 계통에서의 댐핑영향을 반영한 에너지 함수를 유도하였으며 유도 과정에 있어 최근 다모선 계통에 보편적으로 적용되고 있는 관성중심(Center of Inertia :COI) 표현법으로 전개를 시도하였다. 유도된 에너지함수를 PEBS(Potential Energy Boundary Surface) 직접법에 적용하여 임계위치에너지를 산출하였으며, 임계고장제거시간을 계산함으로써 과도안정도직접해석법을 수행하였다. 제안된 에너지 함수를 WSCC 3기 9모선 샘플 시스템에 적용하여 댐핑이 고려된 에너지함수가 실제 계통을 보다 정확하게 표현하고 있음을 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증하였다.
