In this paper, we proposes an adaptive flux observer to estimate initial values of rotor fluxes and unknown rotor resistance. The error system between the model of induction motor and a proposed observer is devided as a fast subsystem and a slow one by a singular perturbation system. The fast subsystem is exponentially convergent on a boundary-layer. And the overall error system is reduced to a quasi-steady-state system. The adaptive law for an unknown rotor resistance is designed to stabilize the approximate error system. As computer simulation results show, the proposed adaptive flux observer estimates fast initial values of rotor fluxes and unknown rotor resistance.

This paper presents an accurate method for measuring the ground resistance in powered grounding system. Most of substations and electric power equipments are interconnected to an extensive grounding network of overhead ground wires, neutral conductors of transmission lines, cable shields, and etc. The parasitic effects due to circulating ground currents and ground potential rise make a significant error in measuring the ground resistance. The test current transition method was proposed to reduce the effects of stray ground currents, ground potential rise and harmonic components in measurements of the ground resistance for powered grounding systems. The instrumental error of the test current transition method is decreased as the ratio of the test current signal to noise(S/N) increases. It was found from the test results that the proposed measuring method of the ground resistance is more accurate than the conventional fall-of-potential method or low-pass filter method, and the measuring error was less than 3[%]when S/N is 10.

Dynamic resistance equalization is a viable technique to balance SOC of cells in a parallel-connected battery configuration due to high equalization performance, simplicity and low-cost. However, an inappropriate design of the equalization resistor can degrade the equalization performance and increase the power loss. This paper proposes an optimization process to design the equalization resistors to minimize power loss and equalization error. The simulation results show that the optimally designed resistor significantly enhance the performance in comparison with the conventional fixed-resistor equalization.

Both ratio error and phase angle error in voltage transformer(VT) depend on values of VT burden used. Thus, precise measurement of burden is very important for the evaluation of VT. A method of evaluation for VT burden has been developed by employing the portable decade resistor, with AC-DC resistance difference less than 10-3. The burden value(value and power factor) can be obtained by conductance and susceptance, obtained by measuring the change of ratio error and phase angle error caused by the resistance change of decade resistor. The burden value and power factor obtained by the method are consistent with those obtained using power analyzer within corresponding uncertainties.

To predict the powering performance of full scale ships from the towing tank tests, resistance, propeller open water and self-propulsion tests are conducted. Model tests inevitably include the experimental error defined as the sum of two types of uncertainties, bias and precision errors. The induced errors in each element of model test are propagated through various routes and correlated with one another. The correlation coefficients are very important in the uncertainty analysis. The coefficient gives a direction(increase or decrease) for a value of error in individual elements. If the coefficient is not used accurately, the error bounds of the individual elements are overestimated or underestimated. In this study, the new methodology is applied to the uncertainty analysis of HMRI's towing tank tests, thus error bounds of each element is suggested and verified by several repetitive experiments.

Both ratio error and phase angle error in current transformer(CT) depend critically on values of CT burden. Thus, precise measurement of CT burden is very important for the evaluation of CT. A method for the measurement of CT burden has been developed by employing the portable shunt precise resistor with negligible AC-DC resistance difference less than $10^{-5}$. The burden value(value and power factor) can be calculated from resistance and reactance obtained by measuring the change of ratio error and phase angle error caused by the change of shunt resistor. The uncertainty for the method is evaluated and found to be abut 2 %.

This paper proposes a correction method concerning the inclination error and non-horizontal error of magnetic compass when magnetic compass is vibrated. This system used the 2-axis variable resistance and pendulum. A pendulum hanging from the 2-axis variable resistance of this system is always maintain the horizontal because of gravity. but these data had some intrinsic error. So we used the low pass filter to solve this problem. So this system can get the accurate azimuth of magnetic compass. In conclusion, These results demonstrate convincingly by applied algorithm of experiment.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of 6-week wrist resistance training on wrist torque control. Nineteen subjects were randomly assigned to either the wrist training group (n=9) or the control group (n=10). The training group performed wrist exercises for six directions (flexion, extension, pronation, supination, radial deviation, and ulnar deviation) while the control group did not. Testing for the isometric torque control error, one-repetition maximum (1-RM) strength, and isokinetic maximum torque (angular velocity of $60^{\circ}/s$ wrist movements) were conducted before and after six weeks of resistance training and after every two-week interval of training. The wrist training group showed significant decreases in isometric torque control error in all six directions after the 2-week resistance training, while the control group did not show significant increase or decrease. The training group showed significant increases in the maximum strength in all six directions assessed by 1-RM strength and isokinetic strength tests after the 4-week resistance training, while the control group did not show any statistically significant changes. This study shows that motor control ability significantly improves within the first two weeks of resistance training, while the wrist strength significantly improves within the first four weeks of resistance training in wrist training group compared to the control.

This paper presents a implementation method of reliable speed limitation controller considering motor parameter variation in high speed operation. In spinning process of drum washing machine, speed increase has to be limited when unallowable imbalance mass is detected. Otherwise, severe noise and vibration can happen because noise and vibration are proportional to imbalance mass. To detect imbalance mass, d-axis current magnitude is used. However, we have to compensate for back-emf and power supply variation by means of detecting them because d-axis current is affected by both of them. On the other hand, we have to carefully estimate back-emf because back-emf is affected by stator resistance variation and inverter voltage error. Stator resistance variation can happen by manufacturing process for mass production or temperature variation in running. And there are inverter voltage errors between command voltage from micro-computer to inverter and real voltage from inverter to motor because of rising and falling time delay and turn-on resistance of power semiconductor switch. To solve this problem, we propose 2-step align current injection method which is to inject step-wise current right before starting. By this method, we can simply obtain stator resistance by ratio of voltage without inverter voltage error and current, and we can measure inverter voltage error. So we can obtain more exact model current, and then by simple calculation with compensation gain, we can estimate more accurate motor back-emf. We show that this method works well. It is verified through experiments.

In voltage measurement by using voltage divider with series resistors, error is generated caused by the variation of resistance. In order to reduce these errors, the hardware cost tends to increase in the previous works. In the proposed method, three resistors are used for the voltage divider of which the organization is adjusted by using switches. Three voltages are measured and the ratio of resistance is calculated based on the measured voltages. Since the resistance ratio is calculated by measuring voltages and additional hardware cost is minimal, the voltage can be measured with high accuracy and low cost. Experimental results show that the mean absolute error is 12.1 mV when the input voltage ranges from 5 V to 50 V.
