A pulse is generated when the heart pumps blood into the arterial system. The heart pumps blood only when it contracts, not when it relaxes; therefore, blood enters the arterial system in a cyclical form. Artery beating is visible in some parts of the body surface, such as the radial artery of the wrist. This paper mainly uses the feature in which near-infrared spectroscopy penetrates skin to construct a non-invasive measurement system that can measure small vibration in the subcutaneous tissue of the human body, and then uses it for the pulse measurement. This measurement system uses the optical moir$\acute{e}$ principle, together with the fringe displacement made by small vibration in the subcutaneous tissue, and an image analysis program to calculate the height variation from small vibrations in the subcutaneous tissue. It completes a measurement system that records height variation with time, and that together with a fast Fourier transform (FFT) program, they can convert the pulse waveform generated by vibration (time-amplitude) to heartbeat frequency (frequency-amplitude). This is a new and non-invasive medical assistance system for measuring the pulse of the human body, with the advantages of being simple, fast, safe and objective.

The design and performance analysis of a reduced rating autotransformer based thirty-pulse AC-DC converter is carried out for feeding a vector controlled induction motor drive (VCIMD). The configuration of the proposed autotransformer consists of only two single phase transformers, with their windings connected in a T-shape, resulting in simplicity in design, manufacturing and in a reduction in magnetics rating. The design procedure of the autotransformer along with the newly designed interphase transformer is presented. The proposed configuration has flexibility in varying the transformer output voltage ratios as required. The design of the autotransformer can be modified for retrofit applications, where presently a 6-pulse diode bridge rectifier is used. The proposed thirty-pulse AC-DC converter is capable of suppressing less than $29^{th}$ harmonics in the supply current. The power factor is also improved to near unity in the wide operating range of the drive. A comparison of different power quality indices at AC mains and DC bus is demonstrated in a conventional 6-pulse AC-DC converter and the proposed AC-DC converter feeding a VCIMD. A laboratory prototype of the proposed autotransformer based 30-pulse AC-DC converter was developed with test results validating the proposed design and system.

본 논문에서는 능동형 Q-스위칭 광섬유 레이저에서 Q-스위치 상승 시간이 출력 펄스에 미치는 영향을 이론적으로 분석하였다. Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) 방법을 이용해서 비율 방정식과 전파 방정식에 대한 모델링을 수행하였다. Q-스위칭 광섬유 레이저에서 발생하는 Q-스위칭 펄스의 생성에 있어서 Q-스위치의 상승 시간이 출력 펄스 특성에 미치는 영향을 이론적으로 분석하였다. 또한, Q-스위치의 반복률에 따른 출력 펄스의 에너지 변화와 파형 변화를 확인하였다. Q-스위치 반복률이 높아지고, Q-스위치의 상승 시간이 길어질수록 출력 펄스의 멀티 피크 현상이 줄어들고 안정된 가우시안 형태의 펄스 파형이 발생함을 확인 할 수 있었다.

Effects of bipolar pulse driving frequency between 50 kHz and 250 kHz on the discharge shapes were analyzed by measuring plasma characteristics by OES (Optical Emission Spectroscopy) and Langmuir probe. Plasma characteristics were modeled by a simple electric field analysis and fluid plasma modeling. Discharge shapes by a continuous dc and bipolar pulsed dc were different as a dome-type and a vertical column-type at the cathode. From OES, the intensity of 811.5 nm wavelength, the one of the main peaks of Ar, decreased to about 43% from a continuous dc to 100 kHz. For increasing from 100 kHz to 250 kHz, the intensity of 811.5 nm wavelength also decreased by 46%. The electron density decreased by 74% and the electron temperature increased by 36% at the specific position due to the smaller and denser discharge shape for increasing pulse frequency. Through the numerical analysis, the negative glow shape of a continuous dc were similar to the electric potential distribution by FEM (Finite Element Method). For the bipolar pulsed dc, we found that the electron temperature increased to maximum 10 eV due to the voltage spikes by the fast electron acceleration generated in pre-sheath. This may induce the electrons and ions from plasma to increase the energetic substrate bombardment for the dense thin film growth.

In this paper, performances of different ultra-wideband (UWB) modulation schemes in the presence of timing jitter are evaluated and compared. Static and Rayleigh fading channels are considered. For fading channels, Oat and dispersive channels are assumed. First, bit error rate (BER) performances for each case are derived for a fixed value of timing jitter. Later, a uniform distribution of jitter is assumed to evaluate the performance of the system, and the theoretical results are verified by computer simulations. Finger estimation error is treated as timing jitter and an appropriate model is generated. Furthermore, a worst case distribution that provides an upper bound on the system performance is presented and compared with other distributions. Effects of timing jitter on systems employing different pulse shapes are analyzed to show the dependency of UWB performance on pulse shape. Although our analysis assumes uniform timing jitter, our framework can be used to evaluate the BER performance for any given probability distribution function of the jitter.

한방의학에서 절진에 속하는 맥진은 28가지의 맥상 분석 방식을 기존의 아날로그 시스템에 적용하여 사용하였다. 그러나 아날로그 시스템은 ECG (Electrocardiogram)와 같은 특징점 추출방법을 이용해 맥파를 분석하는데 특징점 추출방법과 입력 신호의 과도한 증폭으로 맥파의 Clipping현상이 발생되어 맥파의 모양을 정확하게 분석할 수 없는 문제점들이 발생되었다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 아날로그 맥진기 시스템에 문제점을 보완하기 위한 방안의 하나로 전자 맥진기 시스템의 중요한 부분이라 할 수 있는 디지털 필터를 설계하기 위하여 신호의 특징점 추출을 위한 C-spline 보간법을 이용하고, signal modeling에 Prony's method로 디지털 필터를 설계하는 방법을 제안 하였다. 또한 기존의 아날로그 시스템에 맥파 분석 방법의 문제점을 보안하기 위한 전자 맥진기 시스템을 구성하여 새로운 맥파 분석 알고리즘과 아날로그 시스템에서 분석이 어려웠던 맥파의 모양 분석 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 증폭 단 이후 제안된 필터 설계방법을 이용하여 구성된 전자 맥진기 시스템의 출력 값이 아날로그 맥진기의 출력 파형과 아주 유사하면서 파형이 깨끗한 신호를 얻을 수 있어 설계방법의 적합성을 확인 하였고, 제안된 알고리즘에 의한 맥파 분석 결과가 아날로그 시스템의 맥파 분석 보다 정확한 맥파를 분석할 수 있었음을 확인할 수가 있었다.

Electromagnetic Forming (EMF) technology such as magnetic pulse forming, which is one of the high velocity forming methods, has been used for the joining and forming process in various industry fields. This method could be derived a series of deformation of sheet metal by using a strong magnetic field. In this study, numerical approach by finite element simulation of the electromagnetic forming process was presented. A transient electromagnetic finite element code was used to obtain the numerical model of the time-varying currents that are discharged through the coil in order to obtain the transient magnetic forces. Also, the body forces generated in electromagnetic field were used as the loading condition to analyze deformation of thin sheet metal workpiece using explicit dynamic finite element code. In this study, after finite element analysis for thin sheet metal forming process with free surface configuration was performed, analytical approach for a dimpled shape by using EMF was carried out. Furthermore, the simulated results of the dimpled shape by EMF were compared with that by a conventional solid tool in view of the deformed shape. From the results of finite element analysis, it is confirmed that the EMF process could be applied to thin sheet metal forming.

This paper has aimed to prevent excessive heat input by controlling arc distribution and heat input capacity with pulse GTAW in order to improve weld quality in 0.08mm pressure gauge diaphragm and flange welding parts. A design of experiment was designed using Box-Behnken method to optimize a welding process. The pulse GTAW parameters such as pulse current, base current, pulse duty, frequency and welding speed were set to input variables while hydraulic pressure that represents welding characteristics in diaphragm and flange joint were set to output variables. Based on the test result, a second regression equation was obtained between input and output variables and turned out significant. Besides, an influence of parameters has been confirmed through response surface analysis using the second-order regression equation and optimum welding condition was obtained through a grid-search method. The optimum welding condition was set to pulse current 84.4(A), base current 29.6(A), pulse duty 58.8(%), frequency 10(%), and welding speed 596(mm/min). Then, decent bead shape was acquired with no excessive heat input under the $2.3kgf/cm^2$ of hydrostatic pressure.
