Vibrations in machine tools make many problems in precision, production efficiency, and machine performance. The relative vibration between a workpiece and a tool is very complicated due to many sources. In this study, the dynamic characteristics of a newly developed CNC lathe were analyzed and its chatter characteristics were predicted by a chatter analysis method using finite element analysis and 3 dimensional cutting dynamics. The simulated results showed very complex characteristics of chatter vibration and the borderline of limiting depth of cut was used as the stability limit. To check the validity of this method, cutting tests were done in the CNC lathe using a boring bar as a tool because boring process is very weak due to long overhang . The experimental results showed that the simplified borderline was to be considered as limiting depth of cut at which the chatter vibration starts and the stability limits depended on various cutting parameters such as cutting speed, feed and nose radius of tool.

The hybrid system of gas turbine and fuel cell is expected to produce electricity more efficiently than conventional methods, especially in small power applications such as distributed generation. The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is currently the most promising fuel cell for the hybrid system. To realize the conceptual advantages resulting from the hybridization of gas turbine and fuel cell, optimized construction of the whole system must be the most important. In this study, parametric design analyses for pressurized GT/SOFC systems have been peformed considering probable practical limiting design factors such as turbine inlet temperature, fuel cell operating temperature, temperature rise in the fuel cell and soon. Analyzed systems include various configurations depending on fuel reforming type and fuel supply method.

According to developed distributed generators, Solid State Circuit Breaker(SSCB) is essential for high power quality of DC Grid. In this paper, a simple and new structure of DC SSCB with a fast circuit breaker and fault current limiter is proposed. It can help to choice low specification of elements because of the limiting of fault current and achieve economic efficiency for minimizing auxiliary SCRs. Also all of SCRs have little switching loss because they operate under ZVS and ZCS. Through simulations and experiments of short-circuit fault, the performance characteristic of proposed circuit is verified and a guideline is so suggested that the DC SSCB is applied for a different DC grid using formulas.

The present study develops the given theme “Mathematics and Reality” along two lines. First, we explore the answers, in its various facets, to the following question: How is it possible that mathematics shows such wondrous efficiency when explaining nature\ulcorner In addition to a comparative analysis between empiricism and rationalism, constructivism as a function of idealism is compared with realism within the frame provided by rationalism. The second step involves limiting our discussion to realism. We attempt to explain the various stages of mathematical realism and their points of difficulty. Postulate of parallels, Godel's theorem, continuum hypothesis and choice axiom are typical examples used in demonstrating undecidable propositions. They clearly show that it is necessary to mitigate the mathematical realism which depends on bivalent logic based on an objective exterior world. Lowenheim-Skolem theorem, which states that reality is composed not of one block but rather of diverse domains, also reinforces this line of thought. As we can see the existence of undecidable propositions requires limiting the use of reductio ad absurdum proof which depends on the concept of excluded middle. Consequently, it becomes obvious that bivalent logic must inevitably cede to a trivalent logic since there are three values involved: true, false, and undecidable.

This paper proposes a power factor correction circuit with a high efficiency over a wide load range characteristics for a communication power supply. And the characteristic verification is applied to produce a design of prototype. Power factor correction circuit can reduce conduction losses by applying Bridgeless Boost Converter for efficiency. Over a wide load range to maintain the efficient, the control method of a PWM controller is divided by two sections according to the load area. In the low-load region, it was reduced switching losses by applying the critical conduction mode control method. On the other hand, in the heavy-load area, the hysteresis current control method is used to maintain the high efficiency over a wide load range by limiting the peak noise of the inductor.

In order to evaluate the mechanism of electrolytic oxidation of iodate and to determine the optimum conditions for the electrolysis, studies were made using the cells without diaphragm and the lead peroxide anode. Results are summarized as followings: 1) Current density vs. anode potential curve by lead peroxide electrode had the different limiting current densities from platinum electrode and was more positive than platinum electrode. 2) Additions of potassium bichromate in the electrolyte contribute to maintain high current efficiency. 3) In the acid and alkaline regions, the current efficiencies decreased by reduction of iodate and discharge of hydroxyl ion, so maximum current efficiency was shown at pH 7. 4) Higher current density lowered the current efficiency in the region of 60-80% conversion of iodate. 5) Influence of the conversion on current efficiency in the region of 60-80% conversion of iodate.

The design of Intelligent Energy Saving Power System Controller (IESPSC) for Telecom DC power plants is proposed and presented in this paper. From the past experience. rectifiers for Telecom DC power plants have been operated inefficiently at light loads. IESPSC offers "novel load sharing" approach based on the knowledge of each unit's efficiency of paralleled rectifiers. Neural networks is used for identifying each rectifier's efficiency characteristic curve corresponding to load currents, which is in turn utilized to produce a system efficiency close to the maximum under all operating conditions. In addition, by limiting the number of operating units to the minimum while maintaining high efficiency at the determined loads, a drastic savings in operating cost can be achieved.

In binary digital transmission system the band-limiting is required for the better transmission efficiency. But in the case of band-limiting the intersymbol-interference (ISI) usually takes place. In this paper, in an attempt to design band-limiting filter which has minimum ISI and maximum stop-band loss, first, making use of analog filter by combining Binary Transversal Filter (BTF) and analog filter (4th Butterworhfilter), we found the value that minimizes ISI phenomenon by getting step response of rectangular pulse resulting from BTF in time domain. Second, we found filter characteristic we want to in frequency domain for band-limiting and minimized the error. And then we obtained resistor value (Tap coefficient) in order to design algorithm for optimum filter. Also we showed the example of simulation in case we established the resistors with 3,5 and 7 respectively. With 7 resistors set, we identified that the ripple of about minus 30dB was taken place.

Practical efficiencies of pulsed gas discharge lasers utilizing vaporized Au, Ba, Cu, Fe, Mn, Pb, TI atoms are numerically optimized for a discharge pulse of 30 ns rise time at 5 kHz pulse repetition rate. Calculated optimum operating temperatures are close to the values at which the vapor pressure of each atom is about 1 Torr and are in good agreement with experimental values reported elasewhere. The optimum charging voltage was about 4 kV for all atomic vapor lasers except the TI laser. The calculated maximum efficiencies that have been discussed for possible limiting efficiencies for each laser were considerably higher than the reported experimental values. Especially, they were as high as 6.8% for Mn laser and 15% for Ba laser that were comparable to the 8.5% of copper vapor laser, from which considerably higher efficiencies can be expected for these two lasers experimentally. But, the present calculation shows a very low efficiency of 0.058% and requires an exceptional operating condition for the TI laser.
