Damage detection plays a very important role to the maintenance of bridge structures. Traditional damage detection methods are usually based on structural dynamic properties, which are acquired from pre-installed sensors on the bridge. This is not only time-consuming and costly, but also suffers from poor sensitivity to damage if only natural frequencies and mode shapes are concerned in a noisy environment. Recently, the idea of using the dynamic responses of a passing vehicle shows a convenient and economical way for damage detection of bridge structures. Inspired by this new idea and the well-established tap test in the field of non-destructive testing, this paper proposes a new method for obtaining the damage information through the acceleration of a passing vehicle enhanced by a tapping device. Since no finger-print is required of the intact structure, this method can be easily implemented in practice. The logistics of this method is illustrated by a vehicle-bridge interaction model, along with the sensitivity analysis presented in detail. The validity of the method is proved by some numerical examples, and remarks are given concerning the potential implementation of the method as well as the directions for future research.

기존 공동주택의 구내통신 선로설비 중의 댁내배선은 대부분 버스 배선 형태의 구조로 아웃렛의 위치에 따라 브릿지 탭(Bridged Tap)이 존재하게 된다. 이 브릿지 탭은 높은 주파수 대역을 사용하는 고속멀티미디어 통신의 특정 주파수에서 반사손실의 특성이 저하되어 선로의 감쇠가 급격히 증가하여 전송성능을 저하시키고 있어 이에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 기존 주거용 공동주택의 대표적인 아파트의 구내선로 구조 및 댁내 배선환경을 파악하고, 현업의 구내통신설비를 모델링하여 시험모형을 제작하여 VDSL 서비스 성능을 측정하였다. VDSL 서비스 시 브릿지 탭에 의해 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석하여, 기존 구내통신 선로의 문제점을 파악하고, 향후 초고속 멀티미디어 서비스 수용에 적합한 구내통신 선로의 품질개선 방안을 제시하였다.

가입자선로 환경이 ADSL 전송성능에 미치는 요인을 조사하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 의사선로를 구성하여 실험, 분석하였다. ADSL 전송성능 저해요인중 선로의 거리, 케이블의 접속 방법, 브리지 탭, 인입선의 종류에 따르는 비교분석과 AM 방송 잡음의 영향에 대하여 관찰하였다. ADSL의 전송성능을 유지하기 위하여는 현재의 동선 선로를 사용하는 경우 환경조건에 적합하도록 개선하여 활용해야 할 것이며, 점차적으로는 전송특성이 우수한 광 케이블로 대체하여 나가야 할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper proposes a wide output range AC/DC converter for a rechargeable battery of electric vehicle. In the proposed wide output range AC/DC converter for rechargeable battery of electric vehicle, the main transformer in the DC/DC stage is divided by two. Therefore, if the switch is connected to the middle tap, then half of the maximum voltage is applied. Otherwise, it can be applied the full range of the high voltage by connecting the switch to the whole tab. And also, it is designed to have a wide output voltage range by applying Vin/2 made by changing the full-bridge to half-bridge by using the bridge change switch of the input stage. As it can be supplied the wide range output voltage with a single module, it has the advantage of space utilization and cost reduction effect.

In this paper, a new method for reducing harmonic in input AC line currents of converter presents, which is the multi-pulse converter circuit without the input transformer. This system can reduce the harmonic like conventional 12-pulse converter. Both the bridge circuits are controlled with the shifted firing angle and connected 2 tap inter-phase reactor. Using 2 tap changing on inter-phase reactor, the input current is controlled with the different two values in order to make the input current waveform 12 pulses.

A three-leg inverter-type isolated DC-DC Converter that can use 220 and 440 V grid input voltages is introduced. The secondary circuit structure of the proposed topology is center-tap, which is the same as the conventional phase-shifted full-bridge converter. However, the primary circuit structure is composed of a three-leg inverter structure and a transformer, in which two primary windings are connected in series. The proposed circuit structure has a wider input voltage range than the conventional phase-shifted full-bridge converter, and the circulating-current on the primary-side is reduced. In addition, the voltage stress at the secondary rectifier is greatly improved, and high efficiency can be achieved at a high input voltage by removing the snubber circuit added to the conventional converter. Prototype converters with input DC of 311 V, output of 622 V, and 50 V and 6 kW class specifications were designed and manufactured to verify the validity of the proposed topology; the experimental results are presented.

This paper presents two new circuit topologies of the dc busline side active resonant snubber assisted voltage source high frequency link soft switching PWM full-bridge dc-dc power converters acceptable for either utility ac 200V-rms or ac 400V-rms input grid. These high frequency switching dc-dc converters proposed in this paper are composed of a typical voltage source-fed full-bridge PWM inverter, high frequency transformer with center tap, high frequency diode rectifier with inductor input filter and dc busline side series switches with the aid of a dc busline parallel capacitive lossless snubber. All the active switches in the full-bridge arms as well as dc busline snubber can achieve ZCS turn-on and ZVS turn-off transition commutation with the aid of a transformer leakage inductive component and consequently the total switching power losses can be effectively reduced. So that, a high switching frequency operation of IGBTs in the voltage source full bridge inverter can be actually designed more than about 20 kHz. It is confirmed that the more the switching frequency of full-bridge soft switching inverter increases, the more soft switching PWM dc-dc converter with a high frequency transformer link has remarkable advantages for its power conversion efficiency and power density implementations as compared with the conventional hard switching PWM inverter type dc-dc power converter. The effectiveness of these new dc-dc power converter topologies can be proved to be more suitable for low voltage and large current dc-dc power supply as arc welding equipment from a practical point of view.
