Flux-reversal machine (FRM) is a new brushless doubly salient permanent magnet machine. Its operation is similar to that of the brushless DC motor, so it can be driven by 120 degree square wave voltage and use PWM pulse patterns in two-phase feeding scheme to control the speed. In this driving method, the back electromotive force (BEMF) current in the open phase is generated by the BEMF. It can be appeared or disappeared according to the changes of the neutral voltage of the machine. In this paper, the time-stepped voltage source finite-element method taking BEMF current into account is proposed. Its influences on the performances of the FRM are also investigated. To prove the propriety of the proposed analysis method, a Digital Signal Processor (DSP) installed experimental devices are equipped and the experiment is performed.

The rapid thermal annealing effects of Sol-Gel derived ferroelectric PZT thin films were investigated. It was found that rapid thermal annealing(RTA) of spin coated thin films on silicon typically >$800^{\circ}C$ for about 1 min. was changed to the perovskite phase. Rapid thermally annealed films recorded maximum remanent polarization of about 5 .mu.C/cm$^{2}$, coercive field of around 30kV/cm. The switching time for polarization reversal was about 220ns. The films of RTA process showed smooth surface, and high breakdown voltages of over 1 MV/cm and resistivity of $1{\times}{10^12}$ .ohm.cm at 1 MV/cm. It was verified that the polarization reversal of the PZT film was varied partially with applying the multiple short pulse.

Multi-drug resistance (MDR) is an essential aspect of human lung cancer chemotherapy failure. Recent studies have shown that vinorelbine is involved in underlying processes in human tumors, reversing the MDR inseveral types of cancer cells. However, the roles and potential mechanism are not fully clear. In this study, we explored effects of vinorelbine in multi-drug resistance reversal of human lung cancer A549/DDP cells. We found that vinorelbine increased drug sensitivity to cisplatin and intracellular accumulation of rhodamine-123, while decreasing expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), multi-drug resistance-associated protein (MRP1) and glutathione-S-transferase ${\pi}$ (GST-${\pi}$) in A549/DDP cells. At the same time, we also established downregulation of p-Akt and decreased transcriptional activation of NF-${\kappa}B$ and twist after vinorelbine treatment. The results indicated that vinorelbine might be used as a potential therapeutic strategy in human lung cancer.

Domain wall dynamics in thin film of amorphous Rare Earth-Transistion Metal alloys were investigated using numerical integration of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. The thin film was divided into a two-dimensional square lattice ($30\times30$) of dipoles. Nearest-neighbor exchange interaction magnetic anisotropy, applied magnetic field, and demagnetiing field of interacting anisotropy, applied magnetic field, and demagnetizing field of interacting dipoles were considered. It was assumed that the film had perfect uniaxial anisotropy in the perpendicular direction and the magnetization reversal existed in the film. The time of domain wall creation and the thickness of the wall were investigated. Also the motion of domain walls under an applied field was considered. Simulation results showed that the time of domain wall creation was decreased significantly and the average velocity of domain wall was increased somewhat when the demagnetizing field was considered.

A structural health monitoring(SHM) technique for locating impact position in a composite plate is presented in this paper. The technique employs a single sensor and spatial focusing properties of time reversal(TR) and inverse filtering(IF). We first examine the focusing effect of back-propagated signal at the impact position and its surroundings through simulation. Impact experiments are then carried out and the localization images are found using the TR and IF signal processing, respectively. Both techniques provide accurate impact location results. Compared to existing techniques for locating impact or acoustic emission source, the proposed methods have the benefits of using a single sensor and not requiring knowledge of material properties and geometry of structures. Furthermore, it does not depend on a particular mode of dispersive Lamb waves that is frequently used in the SHM of plate-like structures.

Sound focusing technologies has been studied for various purposes from early 1990s. As a result, these technologies make us possible to apply in many uses. For example, we can treat tumors using focused ultrasonic waves without surgical knife and communicate in the ocean using time reversal array. Also applications for personal audio system become issues. Recently, as technologies are developing, in some applications, needs for regional focusing become increasing because previously suggested focusing methods, such as phase conjugation, time reversal and inverse filtering, were all about a point focusing. Therefore, studies on regional focusing method are essentially needed. Regional focusing method was firstly mentioned by Choi and Kim in 2002: acoustic contrast control. However, in regional focusing, physical interpretations between control variables and results are still not easy because of its complexity. In this regard, we tried to understand the relations between control variables and results in wavenumber domain and suggested a solution method for regional focusing: wavenumber spectrum matching. We also showed how to make spatially focused sound shape using the suggested method from the simplest case: line focusing.

This paper addresses a cooperative transmission scheme based on Alamouti coding for cognitive radio networks over frequency selective fading channels. In the proposed scheme, the Alamouti coded form at the destination node is constructed through a simple combination of symbols at the source node, instead of the time-reversal operation and the conjugate operation at the relay nodes used in the conventional scheme. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme achieves a higher order cooperative diversity than that of the conventional scheme.
