This paper presents the analysis of the gate-source voltage of the gallium nitride high electronic mobility transistor (GaN HEMT) in the half bridge structure focused on the mutual effects of two switching operation. Especially low side gate-source voltage is analyzed mathematically according to the high side switch turn-on and turn-off operation. Moreover, the influence of each gate resistance and parasitic component on the switching characteristic of other side switch is investigated, and the formula, simulation and experimental results are compared with theoretical data.

Pulse-width modulated (PWM) full-bridge boost converters are used in applications where the output voltage is considerably higher than the input voltage. Zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) is typically implemented in these converters. A new ZVS-PWM full-bridge converter is proposed in this paper. The proposed converter does not have any of the disadvantages associated with other converters of this type, including a complicated auxiliary circuit, increased current stresses in the main power switches, and load-dependent ZVS operation. The operation of the proposed converter, its steady-state characteristics, and its design are explained and examined. The feasibility of the converter is confirmed with results obtained from an experimental prototype.

In this paper, implementation of digital control for critical conduction mode power factor correction (PFC) rectifier is presented. Critical conduction mode is widely used in medium and low power conversion application due to its minimized MOSFET turn-on loss and diode reverse-recovery problem. However, it needs additional zero current detection circuit and maximum frequency limit to properly turn the MOSFET on and avoid the excessive switching loss in light load operation. This paper explains the digital IC implementation and verifies its operation with 200-W prototype PFC rectifier.

A new asymmetrical zero voltage switching (ZVS) active clamp forward converter is proposed. Since the ripple current of secondary inductor plays a key role in the ZVS operation of main power switch, the proposed converter shows an excellent ZVS performance. The synchronous rectification is employed to reduce the rectification loss. The operational principle and ZVS analysis are presented. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed converter can achieve an excellent ZVS performance throughout all load conditions and the significant improvement in the efficiency for the 100W(5V,20A) prototype converter.

This paper shows what kind of influence the learning motivation factors have on the effectiveness of Flipped Learning Model through the case of operating a JAVA programming subject. The Flipped Learning Approach consisting of Before Class, Before or At Start of Class, and In Class provides the students with learning motivation as well as satisfies Keller's ARCS(Attention, Relevance, Confidence, Satisfaction) to keep them studying steadily. This research conducts the operation of Flipped Learning and gets Exploratory Factor Analysis and Reliability Analysis from the result of the course experience questionnaire at the end of the class. Given this survey result, Flipped Learning approach improves the learners' satisfaction in class and the effectiveness in the fields of understanding learning context more than does the previous lecture-based learning approach by pacing learning procedure and conducting self-directed learning.

In this paper a new analytical model for the non-linear flux-linkage/current characteristics of the switched reluctance motors at different rotor positions is proposed. The model has been successfully verified by the simulation and the experimental results of the instantaneous current waveforms and the average torque values in both single pulse and multiple pulse operation of the motor. The uniqueness of the model lies in its defining a simple algorithm for determining the rotor position ($\theta$). Hence, sensorless operation of the motor can be easily implemented with the aid of this model.

Recently, integrated electric propulsion system has been vigorously adopted into naval vessels. To enhance effectiveness and efficiency of power management in these propulsion systems, this paper investigates necessity of energy storage devices and their operation strategies. By introducing the energy storage devices, engine can operate at higher efficiency point and accordingly costs for fuel and maintenance are significantly reduced. In addition, transient performance can also be improved with support of the devices and it leads to stable operation of shipboard power bus. To validate the proposal of this paper, computer simulation has been conducted with real load data of existing electric propulsion system.

A personal computer, IBM compatible 386, was utilized to analyse total series of 1867 cases of cardiovascular operations including 1060 cases of open cardiac surgeries performed at the Cardiac Center of Paik Hospital from 1986 to 1992.All data were first assembled from the operation files and the operation records from the patient charts. Code numbers were placed to the diagnosis, the operations and the diseases.The analysis revealed the distributions of 1867 cases of operations;819 cases[77%] of the congenital heart diseases and 207 cases[20%] of the acquired heart diseases among 1060 open heart operations. The operative mortalities were 3.7% for the congenital heart diseases and 6.3% for the acquired heart diseases.The vascular operations showed the operative mortalities of 11.8% for the aortic surgery under extracorporeal circulation and 0.7% for the other vascular surgery.

In this paper, intelligent methods using digital protection relay in power SCADA system is developed in order to protect power systems by means of timely fault detection during operation and control at starting for induction motor which have various load environments and capacities in power systems. The digital protective relay was designed with DSP CPU(TMS320C31) to protect and measure more quickly and precisely. The test result on the basis of KEMC 1120 and IEC60255, show that the operation time error of the digital motor protection relay is improved within ${\pm}5%$. Also, we can control motors at starting according to starting types with simple method as programmable sequence editor. So we can improve the demerits of high cost and much manhour for rework.

This work puts forward a theoretical analysis on position estimation performance of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) according to the injection frequency in carrier-based sensorless operation. The effects of spatial harmonics on inductance and voltage distortion due to the nonideal characteristics of IPMSM and inverter are examined as factors influencing the position estimation performance. Furthermore, the position estimation performance is analyzed by calculating the current at the switching instant in several operating conditions. In summary, the half switching frequency injection is more robust to the nonideal characteristics of IPMSM, especially with light load condition. The validity of the analysis is verified by the simulation and experimental results.
