Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of glide path preparation with PathFile and ProGlider nickel-titanium (NiTi) files on the cyclic fatigue resistance of WaveOne NiTi files. Materials and Methods: Forty-four WaveOne Primary files were used and divided into four groups (n = 11). In the first group (0 WaveOne), the WaveOne Primary files served as a control group and were not used on acrylic blocks. In the 1 WaveOne Group, acrylic blocks were prepared using only WaveOne Primary files, and in the PF+WaveOne group and PG+WaveOne groups, acrylic blocks were first prepared with PathFile or ProGlider NiTi files, respectively, followed by the use of WaveOne Primary files. All the WaveOne Primary files were then subjected to cyclic fatigue testing. The number of cycles to failure was calculated and the data were statistically analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the Tukey honest significant difference multiple-comparison test at a 5% significance level. Results: The highest number of cycles to failure was found in the control group, and the lowest numbers were found in the 1 WaveOne group and the PF+WaveOne group. Significant differences were found among the 1 WaveOne, PF+WaveOne, and control groups (p < 0.05). No statistically significant differences were found between the PG+WaveOne group and the other three groups (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Glide path preparation with NiTi rotary files did not affect the cyclic fatigue resistance of WaveOne Primary files used on acrylic blocks.

A helical vane is applied to reduce the magnitude of the impulse wave discharged from the exit of a duct. A shock tube with an open end is used to investigate the effect of the helical vanes on the impulse wave magnitude. Four different types of helical vanes are installed into the low-pressure tube of shock tube. The magnitude of the incident shock wave is varied below 1.25, and the magnitude of impulse wave is measured using a pressure transducer mounted on a wedge probe. Instant images of the impulse wave are obtained by means of the Schlieren optical method. The present experimental results show that the helical vane considerably reduces the magnitude of the impulse wave and the vane effects are more remarkable for stronger incident shock wave.

The present paper describes experimental and computational work to augment the magnitude of the impulsive wave. An experiment was performed using a simple shock tube with an open end and numerical calculations were carried out to solve the unsteady, axisymmetric, inviscid, compressible governing equations. The control strategy applied was to alter the exit geometry of a straight tube to a sudden enlargement tube and a flare tube. The effects of the configurations of the tube exit on the magnitude of the impulsive wave were investigated over the range of the weak shock Mach number from 1.01 to 1.10. The results obtained were compared to those of the straight tube tests. The numerical result predicted the magnitude of the experimented impulsive waves with a good accuracy. The present passive control technique enabled the magnitude of the impulsive wave to augment by about 23 percent, compared to that of the straight tube of no control.

본 논문에서는 Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (WAVE)통신을 철도통신에 적용하였을 때 사용할 수 있는 효과적인 패킷 전송 방법을 제안하였다. WAVE통신은 무선랜에 기초한 통신으로 이동체 통신에 적합하도록 개발된 통신방법으로 Intelligent Transport System (ITS)에 응용하도록 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔다. 철도도 주요 교통수단의 하나로 WAVE를 이용하면 현재 무선랜 시스템을 이용한 Communication Based Train Control (CBTC)를 포함한 많은 서비스들의 성능을 개선하고 여러 시스템으로 분산되어 있는 서비스들을 WAVE로 통합할 수 있다. 하지만, WAVE를 철도에 사용하기 위해서는 해결되어야 하는 문제점이 존재한다. 가장 단순한 구조인 Single-PHY WAVE는 제어채널(Control Channel, CCH)와 서비스 채널(Service Channel, SCH)을 50ms씩 번갈아가며 통신을 수행한다. 철도 통신은 주로 지연에 민감한 패킷들이 많이 존재하는데 이러한 동작에서는 성능 열화가 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 현재 WAVE통신 방법을 상세히 분석한 후 문제점을 도출하고 이러한 문제점을 철도 WAVE 환경에서 해결할 수 있는 새로운 패킷 전송 방법을 제안한다. WAVE 전송 성능을 수학적 모델링을 하여 철도 통신의 요구사항을 만족하는지 여부를 확인하였다.

In the cardiovascular system, the waveform of the pulsatory blood pressure appears variously due to the cardiac impulse and compliance of blood vessels and arm tissue. We have constructed a blood pressure simulator to investigate effects of mechanical properties of artery walls and tissue on blood pressure measurements. The blood pressure simulator is designed to reproduce wave forms of blood pressure in human arteries. To minimize tracking error, we use a linear control valve, and adapt a hybrid control scheme which consists of a feedback controller and a feedforward controller. Any form of the pressure wave can be reproduced, changing function of the wave form in the computer connected to the simulator for control. From experiments, it has been shown that the simulator reproduces wave forms very well, and that the hybrid scheme adapted is superior to the feedback controller.

Wave energy has been considered to be one of the most promising energy resources for the future, as it is pollution-free and an abundant natural resource. However, since it has drawbacks of non-stationary energy density, it is necessary to change the wave energy into a simple concentrated energy. Progressive waves in a coastal area can be amplified, swashed, and overtopped by a wave overtopping control structure. By conserving the quantity of overflow in a reservoir, the kinetic energy of the waves can be converted to the potential energy with a hydraulic head above the mean sea level. The potential energy in the form of a hydraulic head can be utilized to produce electric power, similar to hydro-electric power generation. This study aims to find the most optimal shape of wave overtopping structure for maximum overtopping volume of sea water; for this purpose, we carried out the wave overtopping experiment in a wave tank, under both regular and irregular wave conditions.

A new type of horizontal submerged break water or fixed structure to control waves near coastal area is introduced to focus wave energy before or behind it. Intentionally, the water depth near the structure is changed gradually to get a refraction and diffraction effect. The concentration of wave energy due to the structure was analyzed for the selected design of structure. The shape of the submerged structure in consideration is a circular combined with elliptical curve not to cause reflection of waves at the extreme edge of the structure but cause wave scattering. The direction of the structure against the incident wave is changed easily in the model Applying a regular wave train the following were examined. 1) whether a crescent plain submerged structure designed by the wave refraction theory can concentrate wave energy at a focal zone behind and before it without wave breaking phenomenon. 2) Location of maximum wave amplification factor in terms of the incident wave direction, wave period, etc. In any event the study would contribute to control waves near coastal area and to protect a beach from erosion without interruption of ocean view it is an useful study for the concentration of wave energy efficiently with the increase of wave height.

This paper presents a sensorless speed control of IPMSM (Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) using the high-frequency (HF) square wave injection method. In the proposed HF pulsating square wave injection method, injection voltage is applied into the estimated d-axis of rotor and high-frequency induced q-axis current is considered to estimate the rotor position. Conventional square wave injection methods may need complex demodulation process to find rotor position, while in the proposed method, an easy demodulation process based on the rising-falling edge of the injected voltage and carrier induced q-axis current is implemented, which needs less processing time and improves control bandwidth. Unlike some saliency-based sensorless methods, the proposed method uses maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) strategy, instead of zero d-axis command current strategy, to improve control performance. Furthermore, this paper directly uses resultant d-axis current to detect the magnet polarity and eliminates the need to add an extra pulse injection for magnet polarity detection. As experimental results show, the proposed method can quickly find initial rotor position and MTPA strategy helps to improve the control performance. The effectiveness of the proposed method and all theoretical concepts are verified by mathematical equations, simulation, and experimental tests.

A new control method to alleviate the impulsive noise at the exit of high-speed railway tunnel was applied to the compression wave at the entrance of the tunnel. This method uses the interaction phenomenon of unsteady expansion wave and unsteady compression wave. Unsteady expansion wave was assumed to be made instantaneously by the simple theory of shock tube. Total Variation Diminishing method was employed to solve the axisymmetric unsteady compressible flow field with a specified compression wave. Numerical results show that the maximum pressure gradient of the propagating compression wave decreases with increase of the wave length of the unsteady expansion wave. It is found that the impulsive noise reduction can be obtained when the unsteady expansion wave with a large wave length is emitted just before the train enters the tunnel. The present results give the possibility to reduce the impulsive noise at the exit of tunnel.
