In this paper, a direct adaptive pole placement controller for an unknown linear time-invariant single-input single-output nonminimum phase plant is proposed. To design this direct adaptive pole placement controller, the auxiliary signals are introduced. Consequently, a linear equation error model is formulated for estimating both the controller parameters and the additional auxiliary parameters. To estimate the controller parameters and the additional auxiliary parameters, the exponentially weighted least-squares algorithm is implemented, and a method of selecting the characteristic polynomials of the sensitivity function filters is proposed. In this method, all the past measurement data are weighted exponentially. A series of simulations for a nonminimum phase plant is presented to illustrate some features of both the parameter estimation and the output response of this adaptive pole placement controller.

Single phase induction motor(SPIM) is one of the most widely used type of low power AC motors in the world, especially for domestic or commercial applications where a three phase power supply is not available. Single phase induction motors have no starting torque their own. So there are several ways of starting single phase induction motors. The most common type is the starting capacitor installed in series with the auxiliary winding to increase the starting torque. In the conventional systems, this function is conducted by a centrifugal switch. But the mechanical centrifugal switch has many problems such as switch malfunction. This paper presents the auxiliary winding control using digital universal starting switch to overcome these shortcomings of centrifugal switch.

An improved half-bridge LLC converter with a magamp auxiliary post-regulator is proposed in this paper. The function of the magamp is bypassed when the converter works within the low input-voltage range. Meanwhile, it operates as an auxiliary post-regulator when the input voltage is high. By changing the blocking time of the magamp, the dc gain of the converter can be extended. Hence, the input voltage range of the converter is extended. The realization of proposed topology does not require a complicated circuit. The controller of the magamp can be easily implemented using only passive components, transistors and an OP amp. The generalized operational principle is analyzed and the design criterion for the magamp is presented. Finally, a 25V output, 400W experimental prototype was built and tested for a 160-300V input-voltage range to verify the feasibility of the proposed method.

Flash is the most popular 2D animation and game development software, supporting vector and media technology at the core, which enables the development of small and pithy games. It is widely used in Web animation, courseware, TV commercials, game development, and other works of design. In this paper, we propose a control movement function and auxiliary functions for an alpine skiing game based on ActionScript 3.0. The control movement function is designed with moving phases (i.e., free fall, sliding, projectile, and landing). The auxiliary functions include drawing path, start/restart movement, and saving the highest score. In addition, for the visual design of our game, we designed animations in connection with a character and background. In order to facilitate testing the friction, users can input a chosen friction value. Without user input, the friction default is set at 0.97.

This intelligent keyboard instrument self learning system developed in this study consists of smartphone based learning application and keyboard-instrument auxiliary module. The keyboard instrument auxiliary module receives playing information of the instrument through smartphone application and bluetooth communication. Then the module shows it through LED display so that the relationship between the keyboard and scale could be easily recognized even for beginners. Also, this system provides saving function and analyzing function of user's performance data, making learning more effective.

In the present article, we construct the exact traveling wave solutions of nonlinear PDEs in the mathematical physics via the (1+1)-dimensional Boussinesq equation by using the following two methods: (i) A further improved ($\frac{G}{G}$) - expansion method, where $G=G({\xi})$ satisfies the auxiliary ordinary differential equation $[G^{\prime}({\xi})]^2=aG^2({\xi})+bG^4({\xi})+cG^6({\xi})$, where ${\xi}=x-Vt$ while $a$, $b$, $c$ and $V$ are constants. (ii) The well known extended tanh-function method. We show that some of the exact solutions obtained by these two methods are equivalent. Note that the first method (i) has not been used by anyone before which gives more exact solutions than the second method (ii).

The cold shock domain (CSD) is among the most ancient and well conserved nucleic acid binding domains from bacteria to higher animals and plants. The CSD facilitates binding to RNA, ssDNA and dsDNA and most functions attributed to cold shock domain proteins are mediated by this nucleic acid binding activity. In prokaryotes, cold shock domain proteins only contain a single CSD and are termed cold shock proteins (Csps). In animal model systems, various auxiliary domains are present in addition to the CSD and are commonly named Y-box proteins. Similar to animal CSPs, plant CSPs contain auxiliary C-terminal domains in addition to their N-terminal CSD. Cold shock domain proteins have been shown to play important roles in development and stress adaptation in wide variety of organisms. In this review, the structure, function and regulation of plant CSPs are compared and contrasted to the characteristics of bacterial and animal CSPs.

In this paper we have suggested a family of chain estimators of the population mean $\bar{Y}$ of a study variate y using two auxiliary variates in two phase (double) sampling assuming that the coefficient of variation of the second auxiliary variable is known. It is well known that chain estimators are traditionally formulated when the population mean $\bar{X}_1$ of one of the two auxiliary variables, say $x_1$, is not known but the population mean $\bar{X}_2$ of the other auxiliary variate $x_2$ is available and $x_1$ has higher degree of positive correlation with the study variate y than $x_2$ has with y, $x_2$ being closely related to $x_1$. Here the classes are constructed when the population mean $\bar{X}_1\;of\;X_1$ is not known and the coefficient of variation $C_{x2}\;of\;X_2$ is known instead of population mean $\bar{X}_2$. Asymptotic expressions for the bias and mean square error (MSE) of the suggested family have been obtained. An asymptotic optimum estimator (AOE) is also identified with its MSE formula. The optimum sample sizes of the preliminary and final samples have been derived under a linear cost function. An empirical study has been carried out to show the superiority of the constructed estimator over others.

A new soft switching three-phase PWM rectifier with simple circuit configuration and high efficiency has been developed. The proposed circuit is a kind of the auxiliary resonant commutated Pole(ARCP)converter The conventional ARCP converter requires three-auxiliary reactors and six-auxiliary switches for the soft switching auxiliary circuit and for these switching elements, a gate drive circuit and a control circuit are required, resulting in high part as a disadvantage. In the main circuit proposed in this paper, the auxiliary soft switching circuit is composed of two-auxiliary reactors, two-auxiliary switches and several diodes. In addition, common use of the PWM control circuit for two-switches will make the control circuit of the auxiliary switches simple. By means of function of the soft switching auxiliary circuit, the main switching element performs zero voltage switching operation and the auxiliary switches perform the zero current switching. In this paper, the circuit configuration and the operational analysis of the proposed circuit are described at first and then, experimental results will be reported. By using a prototype with 5[kW] capacity, the conversion efficiency of maximum $98.8[\%]$ and the power factor of $99[\%]$ or higher were obtained.
