In this paper, a SiC-based LIGBT structure that can be used at high voltage and high temperature is presented. In order to improve the low current characteristic, a dual-emitter symmetrical around the gate is inserted. In order to verify the characteristics of the proposed device, simulation and design were conducted using Sentaurus TCAD simulation, and a comparative study was conducted with a general LIGBT. In addition, splitting was performed by designating a variable for the length of the N-drift region in order to verify the electrical characteristics of the minority carriers. As a result of the simulation it was confirmed that the proposed dual-emitter structure flows a higher current at the same voltage than the conventional LIGBT.

A piezo-buzzer being used for the purpose of generation of audible frequency, which is a electric-acoustic transducer utilizing the inverse piezoelectric effect. Also it can be used for a pressure sensor according to the piezoelectric effect. But the output of a piezo-buzzer is a differential signal. In this study, we've made a system that can measure a real pressure by integration of output signal. According to our results, it could be found a possibility of application for pressure sensor by measurement of output characteristics when a piezo-buzzer was pressurized and depressurized, and by measuring of an error by means of the drift current of OP-Amp, etc..

In this study, the efficiency of adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) and genetic expression programming (GEP) in predicting the effects of infill walls on base reactions and roof drift of reinforced concrete frames were investigated. Current standards generally consider weight and fundamental period of structures in predicting base reactions and roof drift of structures by neglecting numbers of floors, bays, shear walls and infilled bays. Number of stories, number of bays in x and y directions, ratio of shear wall areas to the floor area, ratio of bays with infilled walls to total number bays and existence of open story were selected as parameters in GEP and ANFIS modeling. GEP and ANFIS have been widely used as alternative approaches to model complex systems. The effects of these parameters on base reactions and roof drift of RC frames were studied using 3D finite element method on 216 building models. Results obtained from 3D FEM models were used to in training and testing ANFIS and GEP models. In ANFIS and GEP models, number of floors, number of bays, ratio of shear walls and ratio of infilled bays were selected as input parameters, and base reactions and roof drifts were selected as output parameters. Results showed that the ANFIS and GEP models are capable of accurately predicting the base reactions and roof drifts of RC frames used in the training and testing phase of the study. The GEP model results better prediction compared to ANFIS model.

The mesh selectivity of drift gill net for yellow croaker (Larimichthys polyactis) was examined in field experiments with six different net mesh size (40, 45, 50, 55, 60 and 65 mm) from April to December, 2008 in the northwestern coastal waters of Gageo-do, Korea. The total catch of 8,091 consisted of yellow croaker (n=7,574; 89.5% of total catch), common mackerel (n=162; 4.8%) and other species (n=355; 5.8%). The selectivity curve for the small size yellow croaker was fit by Kitahara's method to the polynomial equation S(R)=exp{($-0.552R^3$+$4.927R^2$-11.591R+9.320)-6.717}. The optimal mesh size for 50% retention for minimum landing size(191mm) of yellow croaker was estimated as 51.1 mm. This is very similar to the current drift net mesh size used in Gageo-do.

Streaming data is a sequence of data samples that are consistently generated over time. The data distribution or concept can change over time, and this change becomes a factor to reduce the performance of a classification model. Adaptive incremental learning can maintain the classification performance by updating the current classification model with the weight adjusted according to the degree of concept drift. However, selecting the proper weight value depending on the degree of concept drift is difficult. In this paper, we propose a dynamic ensemble method based on adaptive weight adjustment according to the degree of concept drift. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method shows higher performance than the other compared methods.

The result of Boltzmann equation, the drift velocity of electrons, has been compared with experimental data by L. S. Frost and A. V. Phelps for a range of E/N. The swarm parameter from the study are expected to server as a critical test of current theories of low energy scattering by atoms and molecules.

To improve the characteristics of breakdown voltage and specific on-resistance, we propose a new structure for a LDMOSFET for a PDP scan driver IC based on silicon-on-insulator with a trench under the gate in the drift region. The trench reduces the electric field at the silicon surface under the gate edge in the drift region when the concentration of the drift region is high, and thereby increases the breakdown voltage and reduces the specific on-resistance. The breakdown voltage and the specific on-resistance of the fabricated device is 352 V and $18.8 m{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ with a threshold voltage of 1.0 V. The breakdown voltage of the device in the on-state is over 200 V and the saturation current at $V_{gs}=5V$ and $V_{ds}$=20V is 16 mA with a gate width of $150{\mu}m$.

Engineered structures built in seismic-prone areas are affected by aftershocks in addition to mainshocks. Although aftershocks generally are lower in magnitude than that of the mainshocks, some aftershocks may have higher intensities; thus, structures should be able to withstand the effect of strong aftershocks as well. This seismic scenario arises for far-field mainshock along with near-field aftershocks. In this study, four 2D reinforced concrete (RC) frames with different numbers of stories were designed in accordance with the current Iranian seismic design code. As a way to evaluate the seismic response of the case-study RC frames, the inter-story drift ratio (IDR) demand, the residual inter-story drift ratio (RIDR) demand, the Park-Ang damage index, and the period elongation ratio can be useful engineering demand parameters for evaluating their seismic performance under mainshock-aftershock sequences. The frame models were analyzed under a set of far-field mainshock, near-fault aftershocks seismic sequences using nonlinear dynamic time-history analysis to investigate the relationship among IDR, RIDR, Park-Ang damage index and period ratio experienced by the frames. The results indicate that the growth of IDR, RIDR, Park-Ang damage index, and period ratio in high-rise and short structures under near-fault aftershocks were significant. It is evident that engineers should consider the effects of near-fault aftershocks on damaged frames that experience far-field mainshocks as well.

A wavelength-independent optical sensor based on an asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometer (AMZI) is proposed. The optical sensor based on an AMZI is very sensitive to wavelength, and wavelength drift will lead to measurement error. The optical sensor is compensated to reduce its dependence on wavelength. The insensitivity of the optical sensor to wavelength mainly depends on the compensation structure, which is composed of an AMZI cascaded with another AMZI and can compensate the wavelength drift. The influence of wavelength drift on the optical sensor can be counteracted by carefully designing the size parameters of the compensation structure. When the wavelength changes from 1549.9 nm to 1550.1 nm, the error after compensation can be lower than 0.066%. Furthermore, the effect of fabrication tolerance on compensation results is analyzed. The proposed compensation method can also be used to compensate the drift of other parameters such as temperature, and can be applied to the compensation of other interference-based optical devices.

The tracking accuracy of buoy-based LBL(Long Base Line) systems can be significantly influenced by sea environmental conditions. Particularly, the position of buoys that may have drifted due to sea currents. Therefore it is necessary to predict and optimize the drifted-buoy positions in the deploying step. This research introduces a free-drift simulation model using ocean data from the European CMEMS. The simulation model's predictions are validated by comparing them to actual sea buoy drift tracks, showing a substantial match in averaged drift speed and direction. Using this drift model, we optimize the initial buoy layout and compare the tracking performance between the center hexagonal layout and close track layout. Our results verify that the optimized layout achieves lower tracking errors compared to the other two layout.
