Vehicle stability is a very important subject in vehicle design and control, because vehicle safety is closely dependent upon its dynamic stability. For the vehicle stability analysis, the nonlinear vehicle model of a mid-size car with three DOF - longitudinal, lateral and yaw - is employed. A rigorous method is used to determine the vehicle stability region in plane motion. An algorithm is used to materialize a topology theorem, which enables to find the exact stability region. A stability criterion for the critical cornering is proposed.

his study deals with a power conversion unit of an anti-start air conditioner compressor system for the commercial vehicle. In case of converter, to reduce the switching losses and current stresses of the device, applies LLC resonant topology. Transformer leakage inductance in the full-bridge converter is used for making the resonance with the capacitor of the voltage-doubler. Through this method we can increase power and decrease volume of system. Both circuit analysis and design guideline are described. So in this paper, power conversion unit is designed. 2.5kW anti-start air conditioner compressor system was implemented, and system operation and stability was verified through experiment.

CFD calculations are carried out to investigate the turbulent flow characteristics inside the duct of marine waterjet propulsors. The Reynolds-averaged Wavier-Stokes equations are solved using a finite-volume method. Standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ model and realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ model are evaluated with an existing experimental data. Multi-block grid topology is adopted to describe the details of complex duct geometry. The present numerical methods are applied to the preliminary duct design of new waterjet propulsor system. Four different influx conditions are simulated to find out pressure and velocity distribution inside the intake duct. Attention is also paid upon the possible flow separation inside the waterjet duct. It is found that CFD tools can be used for the initial evaluation of inflow condition into the impeller of waterjet propulsor system.

This paper proposes a new filter topology that suppresses the high voltage gradient(dv/dt) in ac motor terminals. The high voltage gradient(dv/dt) causes over voltages on the motor windings, the degradation or motor insulation, and the bearing failure. Moreover surge voltage with high voltage gradient(dv/dt) in the PWM inverter red drive system where long line cables are required causes more serious problem to the motor. Thus, the most advisable method is attaching output filter to the inverter output terminals. The conventional output filters have several problems such as bulky size, difficulty or parameter tuning. The proposed filter can be relatively smaller than the conventional filters. By the proposed filter, the shaping or PWM waveform can considerably suppress high dv/dt in motor feeding cable from the inverter. The effectiveness or the proposed filter is compared with that or the conventional one and is verified by the computer simulation.

To improve the drawback of LCMPPT(Limit Cycle Maximum Power Point Tracking) controller of the existing two power conversion stages, an advanced MPPT scheme of single power conversion stage is proposed in this paper. This topology is faster on the control speed by means of current control method and the system configuration is simpler. The Authors produce a battery charger by using a cost effective one-chip processor (PIC16F877A) and evaluate another application on the basis of simulation. As a result, the proposed new LCMPPT algorithm is confirmed to be stable and useful.

This study investigates the influences of different core parameters on the dynamic performances, such as rise time and overshoot, in pulse transformers for the triggering circuit of SCRs. First, a simplified transformer equivalent circuit, which emerges from a standard transformer equivalent circuit, is developed to analyze the step response. Second, the relations between the dynamic performances and the parasitic parameters are calculated by the simplified equivalent circuit. Third, the variations of rise time and overshoot, which are vital to the stability of triggering SCRs, with different core parameters, such as mechanic dimensions and topologies, are comprehensively investigated by analyzing the parasitic parameters. Finally, prototype transformers are fabricated to experimentally validate the analysis. The presented method can practically instruct the design of a pulse transformer for triggering SCRs.

Hyperbolic metamaterials in which waves can only propagate through the radial direction have achieved much attention these days due to their capability of sub-wavelength resolution. In this work, the realization and optimization of hyperbolic elastic metamaterials are mainly studied. To obtain a new hyperbolic elastic metamaterial, a specially-engineered mass-spring system is introduced. Based on the mass-spring system, the hyperbolic elastic metamaterials are proposed and realized. In addition, the sub-wavelength resolution of the proposed hyperbolic elastic metamaterial is verified by ultrasonic elastic wave experiments. For the experiments, specially-designed magnetostrictive patch transducers are developed to realize two sub-wavelength elastic wave sources. Furthermore, the proposed hyperbolic elastic metamaterial is optimized to maximize its operating frequency ranges by the topology optimization method.

Hydrogen is commonly used in many industrial field. However, hydrogen should be filled in a high pressure container to use it. Therefore, many researches have been conducted about an electrolyzer. The operating principle of the electrolyzer is that the electrolyzer can separate water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. To use the electrolyzer, a power conversion system is needed because the current of the electrolyzer increases exponentially depending on the voltage of the electrolyzer. Thus, this paper proposes the power conversion system for the electrolyzer using a full-bridge DC-DC converter topology.

In this paper, a comparative study of metallic and non-metallic stiffened plates under a lateral pressure load is performed using conventional statistically determinate and SQP(Sequential Quadratic Programming) optimisation approaches. Initially, a metallic flat-bar stiffened plate is exemplified from the superstructure of a marine vessel and, subsequently, its structural topology is varied as hat-section stiffened FRP(Fibre Reinforced Plastics) single skin plates and monocoque FRP sandwich plates having a PVC foam core. These proposed structural alternatives are analysed using elastic closed-form solutions and SQP optimisation method under stress and deflection limits obtained from practice to calculate and optimise geometry dimensions and weights. Results obtained from the comparative study provide useful information for marine designers especially at the preliminary design stage where various building materials and structural configurations are dealt with.

The Purpose of this paper is to show the applicability of a methodology, developed by the authors, with which to perform the mechanical optimization of space truss structures strongly restricted. This methodology use a parameter call "Volumetric Displacement", as the Objective Function of the optimization process. This parameter considers altogether the structure weight and deformation whose effects are opposed. The Finite Element Method is employed to calculate the stress/strain state and the natural frequency of the structure through a structural linear static and natural frequency analysis. In order to show the potentially of this simple methodology, its application on a large diameter telescope structure (10 m) considering the strongly restriction that became of its use, is presented. This methodology, applied in previous works on continuous structures, such as shell roof and fluid storage vessels, is applied in this case to a space truss structure, with the purpose of generalize its applicability to different structural topology. This technique could be useful in the morphology design of deployable and retractable roof structures, whose use has extensively spread in the last years.
