Programmed PWM(Pulse Width Modulated) generation techniques eliminating several low order harmonics have been widely used in the inverter circuit which produces minimum current ripple, reduced torque pulsation and thereby improves overall system performance. However, the applications of the programmed PWM technique are limited to CVCF(Constant Voltage Constant Frequency) applications and various motor drives. Although the programmed PWM produces a lower harmonic distorted waveform than the carrier modulated PWM, real-time programming is not possible because of the complicated calculation required for the gating signal. In this paper, a new programmed PWM technique named TAM (time averaging model) is developed to compensate for the demerits of the conventional programmed PWM technique with moderate harmonic distortion. Computer simulations are performed to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm.

This paper presents the design and implementation of voltage source inverter type SVPWM based speed control of an induction motor using a fuzzy PI controller. This scheme enables us to adjust the speed of the motor by controlling the frequency and amplitude of the stator voltage; the ratio of the stator voltage to the frequency should be kept constant. A model of the fuzzy control system is implemented in real time with a Xilinx FPGA XC3S 400E. It is introduced to maintain a constant speed to when the load varies.

A resonant type voltage source and power device and a control method using Pulse Density Modulation(PDM) power control and Pulse Width Modulation(PWM)voltage control for plasma sterilization are described. For the stability of discharge in the generating tube, it is desirable that the peak apply voltage is constant. The PDM power control is employed for sustaining the voltage constant at any generating tube input power. Moreover, to avoid the influence of input AC voltage fluctuation etc., PWM voltage control with generating tube peak voltage feedback is used. Both functions were confirmed by the experiment with inverter and generating tube. The effect of input synchronous PDM method for input current stabilizing is confirmed also.

This paper proposes an automatic microshaping technology using laser and applies it to implementation of semicutting control system of the panel inside which a car air bag is equipped. Since it is impossible to project laser directly onto the desired working point of a target panel due to fixedness of laser generator, we reflect the generated laser, using reflection mirrors and focusing lenses, to project onto the desired working point. Also, in order to conduct an uniform semicutting control with constant width and depth, we control the end-effector of manipulator, which grasp the laser reflection mirror, to track working path with constant speed and orientation. The validity and effectiveness of the proposed methods are checked through experiments tracking a path formatted with straight lines and arcs.

Chip breaking is important in lathe work for maintaining good surface of the products and safety of operator. The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance of chip breaking and chip shape resulted from the carbide inserts with grooved type and obstruction type chip breaker. Experiments have been performed under the following cutting conditions, (1) constant cutting speed with variable depth of cut and feed rate, (2) constant depth of cut with variable cutting speed and feed rate. Also, the flying distance of chip and it's distribution have been investigated. As a results, good performance of chip breaking can be obtained for small radius of curvature and land width of grooved type chip breaker. And the thickness of chip increase with the increase of feed rate and decrease of cutting speed, and the chip breaking becomes easier with the increase of chip thickness due to the large deformation rate. Obstraction type chip breaker shows better performance of surface roughness than the grooved type. The flying distance of the chips over 90% are less than 1 meter, and the distance decreases as the feed rate decreases.

The purpose of this work is to investigate the fundamental properties of the gradual muscle force potentiation. We investigated the dependence of force potentiation on both the pulse-amplitude and the pulse-duration with different ramp-up time. The experimental results showed that the force increment ratio (FIR) during constant electrical stimulation decreased with pulse-amplitude and also with pulse-duration. The FIR was greater with short ramp-up time in both the pulse-amplitude and pulse-width modulation. The feasible mechanism might be that the myosin light chain phosphorylation induces the force potentiation and it occurs only in the fast type muscle fibers which are recruited first. These observations indicate that muscle potentiation must be understood well for the accurate control of muscle force.

The shape and width of fuzzy membership function has an effect on performance of fuzzy controller. In this paper, neuro-fuzzy controller is proposed to improve the control performance of fuzzy controller. It has membership function, that is adapt to plant constant by using trained neural network.

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) with 1 GHz antenna has been used to locate a steel bar embedded inside laboratory-prepared mortar specimens. Four mortar specimens are made with the dimensions of 100 cm (length) x 100 cm (width) x 14 cm (depth). One specimen had no bars and the other three specimens had a Dl9 steel bar at 4, 6. and 8 cm depth. As a part of the experimental work, the dielectric constants of mortar specimens are measured during curing. As the curing time increased. the dielectric constant decreased with decreasing moisture content inside the specimen. The steel bar embedded inside mortar specimens has been successfully identified in all three cases. The results using signal processing scheme developed in this study significantly improved the output of a commercially available radar system.
