It is well known that the understanding of the complex mechanism of magnetoplasma is closely related with understanding of the collective behavior of discharge plasma parameters such as the cathode-sheath potential, cathode-sheath thickness, electron temperature, electron density, and ambipolar diffusion. In this paper, some of the relationships between these plasma parameters and magnetic field is investigated experimentally with a Langmuir probe in the magnetoplasma generated by D.C diode system. It is found that when magnetic field is increased, cathode-sheath potential, cathode-sheath thickness, and ambipolar diffusion are decreased. In addition, peak ion density obtained as a parameter of ionic signal voltage by Faraday cup method is independent of magnetic field. (author). 9 refs., 11 figs.,1 tab.

미사일 수직발사 시스템은 공간을 작게 차지하고 간편하여 각국이 선호하고 있다. 그러나 수직발사 초기에는 매우 낮은 속도로 상승하므로 Fin의 공력이 발생하지 않기 때문에 추력방향을 직접제어하지 않으면 안된다. 추력방향 제어장치는 Gimbal, Jet Vane, Jet Tab, Secondary Injection 등 여러 방식이 있으나 Jet Vane Type의 추력 방향 제어장치는 응답이 빠르고 경량화가 가능하며 후방 Fin과의 연동 및 작동 후 분리가 가능하다는 장점으로 인해 수직발사 미사일의 초기 방향제어에 주로 사용한다. 이 장치는 Vane이 화염 속에서 직접 구동되므로 고내열성 재료의 기술이 필요하며 미사일의 전체 System에 요구되는 Side Force를 발생시키기 위한 Vane의 최대 받음각 및 회전속도를 결정해야 한다. 따라서 초음속 유동해석을 통해서 Vane의 받음각에 대한 Side Force와 Torque를 계산하며, 구조해석을 통해 Side Force가 가해지는 동안의 Housing의 굽힘, 비틀림 하중 등을 계산하였다. 또한 Controller는 기존의 유압방식보다도 소형이며 복잡하지 않고 가격이 싼 DC Motor와 감속기를 이용하여 빠른 응답성에 부합토록 설계하였다. 본론에서는 성능과 관련된 초기 요구조건에 대한 최적설계의 변수들을 해석하고. 그에 따른 개발사양, 개발 과정, 구조, 시험방법 등에 대해 고찰하고자 한다.

Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates can be used more efficiently in strengthening applications by applying prestress to the CFRP laminates. A key problem for prestressing with CFRP laminates is anchoring the laminates. These may include fracture to the CFRP laminates due to excessive gripping force or slippage of the CFRP laminates out of the anchorage zone caused by low friction between the anchor device and the lamiantes. The main objective of this study is the development of an applicative wedge-type anchorage system for prestressed CFRP laminates through experimental study. The experimental parameters were the type of anchorage and the effect of elastic modulus of tab. The test results showed that the developed anchor assures 100% CFRP laminate strength.

This study aims to identify aerodynamic characteristics of the ramp tab, a mechanical deflector, by conducting a non-combustive experiment using compressed air and supersonic flow test equipment. With the ramp tabs installed symmetrically and asymmetrically on the outlet of the supersonic nozzle, the structure of the flow field, the thrust spoilage, the thrust deviation angle, and the lift/drag coefficients were derived and analyzed. The results show that the asymmetrically-installed ramp tabs are advantageous relative to the symmetrically-installed tabs in terms of the performance of thrust vector control, thrust deviation angle, and lift coefficient.

Brushless DC(BLDC) motor have been increasingly used in machine tools and robotics applications due to the reliability and the efficiency. In control of BLDC motor, it is important to construct the controller which is robust to parameter variations and external disturbances. Variable structure controller(VSC) has been known as a powerful tool in robust control of time varying systems. In practical systems, however, VSC has a high frequency chattering which deteriorates system performances. In this paper, a binary controller(BC) which takes the form of VSC and MRAC combined is presented to solve this problem. BC consists of the primary loop controller and the external loop controller to change the gain of primary loop controller smoothly. So it can generate the continuous control input and is insensitive to parameter variations in the given domain. To confirm the validity, various investigations of control characteristics for various design parameters in a position control system of BLDC motor are carried out.

As the current shape of SRM is of pulse type and changed by the motor parameters and drive conditions, the influences on the drive efficiency by control method are more than other types of motors. In this paper, a proper excitation condition to drive a SRM with high efficiency is proposed and tested. It is derived from the conditions that the phase current of a SRM is to be flat-topped at various drive. The saturation effect of magnetic circuit is accounted for more accurate analysis. Experimental tests are executed to verify the proposed excitation method. This drive system is easy to commutate and also advantageous in reducing torque ripple. (author). 6 refs., 10 figs., 1 tab.

The input estimation method estimates maneuvering input acceleration in order to track a maneuvering target. In this paper, the optimal input estimator is derived by choosing the MAP hypothesis among maneuvering input transition hypotheses under the assumption that a maneuvering input acceleration is a semi-Markov process. The optimal input estimation method cannot be realized because the optimal filter should consider every maneuver onset time hypothesis from filter starting time to current time which increase rapidly. Hence the suboptimal filter using a sliding window is proposed. Since the proposed method can consider all hypotheses of input transitions inside the window, it is general enough to include Bogler's input estimation method. Simulation results show, however, that we can obtain a good performance even when the filter considering just one input transition in the window is used. (author). 9 refs., 3 figs., 1 tab.

A Simple AC complex circuit analysis for LCL type series resonant converter with phase shift control is proposed. Based on these analyses, a set of characteristic curves which allows a optimal design procedure for this converter is shown, without increasing the volt-ampere rating of tank circuit Especially, inverter output peak current can be minimized in both full load and partial load conditions. The presented design considerations can make the load range wide from full loads to light loads achieving turn-on with zero voltage switching (ZVS) operation. The detailed analysis and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed design algorithms. (author). refs., figs., tab.

A zero voltage switching (ZVS) three level auxiliary resonant commutated pole inverter (ARCPI) is presented for high power GTO inverters. The concept of ARCP for two level inverter is extended to the three inverter. The proposed auxiliary commutation circuit consists of one resonant inductor and two bi-directional switches, which provides ZVS condition to the main devices without increasing device voltage or current stresses. The auxiliary device operates with zero current switching (ZCS) which enables use of the low cost thyristors. The proposed ARCPI can handle higher voltage and higher power (1-10MVA) comparing to the two level one. Operation and analysis of the ARCPI are illustrated and the features are compared o those of the snubber circuit incorporated three level inverter. Experimental results with 10kW, 4kHz prototype are presented to verify the principle of operation. (author). refs., figs., tab.

The amorphous silicon films deposited by low pressure chemical vapor deposition are crystallized by the various annealing techniques including low-temperature furnace annealing and two-step annealing. Two-step annealing is the combination of furnace annealing at 600 [.deg. C] for 24 h and the sequential furnace annealing at 950 [.deg. C] 1h or the excimer laser annealing. It s found that two-step annealings reduce the in-grain defects significantly without changing the grain boundary structure. The performance of the poly-Si thin film transistors (TFTs) produced by employing the tow-step annealing has been improved significantly compared with those of one-step annealing.
