In the generally a voice conversion has used VQ(Vector Quantization) for partitioning the spectral feature and has performed by adding an appropriate offset vector to the source speaker's spectral vector. But there is not represented the target speaker's various characteristics because of discrete characteristics of transformed parameter. In this paper, these problems are solved by using the LMR(Linear Multivariate Regression) instead of the mapping codebook which is determined to the relationship of source and target speaker vocal tract characteristics. Also we propose the method for solved the discontinuity which is caused by applying to time aligned parameters using Dynamic Time Warping the time or pitch-scale modified speech. In our proposed algorithm for overcoming the transitional discontinuities, first of all, we don't change time or pitch scale and by using the LMR change a speaker's vocal tract characteristics in speech with non-modified time or pitch. Compared to existed methods based on VQ and LMR, we have much better voice quality in the result of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a voice personality transformation method which makes one person's voice sound like another person's voice. In order to transform the voice personality, vocal tract transfer function is used as a transformation parameter. Comparing with previous methods, the proposed method can obtain high-quality transformed speech with low computational complexity. Conversion between the vocal tract transfer functions is implemented by a linear mapping based on soft clustering. In this process, mean LPC cepstrum coefficients and mean removed LPC cepstrum modeled by the low dimensional vector are used as transformation parameters. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, mapping rules are generated from 61 Korean words uttered by two male and one female speakers. These rules are then applied to 9 sentences uttered by the same persons, and objective evaluation and subjective listening tests for the transformed speech are performed.

This paper presents an analytic method to calculate energy conversion between electromagnetically coupled high-temperature superconducting and copper coils. The energy transfer from one coil to the other is commonly observed during quench of a no-insulation (NI) high temperature superconductor (HTS) magnet. Proper understanding of this phenomenon is particularly important to protect an NI HTS magnet, especially to avoid any potential mechanical damages. In this paper, analytic equations are obtained to estimate the energy transfer between the NI and copper coils. The well-known lumped-parameter circuit model is adopted provided that key parameters of the coils are given.

In this paper, a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC), one of the representative third-generation solar cells with eco-friendly materials and processes compared to other solar cells, was modeled using MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation was conducted by designating values of series resistance, parallel resistance, light absorption coefficient, and thin film electrode thickness, which are directly related to the efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells, as arbitrary experimental values. In order to analyze the performance of dye-sensitized solar cells, the optimal value among each parameter experimental value related to efficiency was found using formulas for fill factor (FF) and conversion efficiency.

This paper presents a design method of synchronous generator excitation controller using self-tuning PID algorithm. Controller parameter is determined by using adaptive control theory in order to maintain optimal operation of generator under the various operating conditions. To determine the optimal parameter of controller. minimum variance algorithm using the recursive leastsquare(RLS) indentification method is adopted and the difference between the speed deviation with weighted factor and voltage deviation is used as the input signal of adaptive controller, which provides good damping and conversion characteristics. The results tested on a single machine infinite bus system verify that the proposed controller has better dynamic performances than conventional controller.

This study provides a robust control of a grid-connected three-phase two-level photo voltaic inverter. The introduced control method uses the cascade control strategy to regulate AC-side current and DC-link voltage. A robust controller with integration action is used for the inner-loop AC-side current control, which maximizes the convergence rate using a linear matrix inequality-based optimization design method and eliminates the offset error. The robust controller design method considers the parameter uncertainty set to accommodate parameter mismatch and un-modeled components in the inverter model. An outer-loop proportional-integral controller is used to regulate DC-link voltage with linearization of DC/AC relation. The proposed control strategy is applied to a grid-connected 100 kW photo voltaic inverter.

A mathematical model is developed to describe the relationship between the manipulated variables (e.g. jacket inlet temperature and feed flow rate) and the important qualities (e.g conversion and weight average molecular weight (Mw)) in a continuous polymerization reactor. The subspace-based identification method for Wiener model is used to retrieve from the discrete sample data the accurate information about both the structure and initial parameter estimates for iterative parameter optimization methods. The comparison of the output of the identified Wiener model with the outputs of a non-linear plant model shows a fairly satisfactory degree of accordance.

The purpose of this paper is characteristic analysis of permanent magnet generator (PMG) for automatic voltage regulator (AVR)power of brush less synchronous generator. However, this PMG has a spoke type permanent magnet rotor with large overhang for high power density, characteristic analysis considering concentration effect of air-gap flux density due to the overhang should be performed. 30 transient finite element method (FEM)analysis is good solution for overhang parameter, but this method needs too much calculation time. In this paper, we examined the overhang effects based on overhang length and material of rotor core by using 20 and 30 static FEM analysis, and proposed 20 dynamic FEA model considering overhang parameter which gives good and rapid results. The proposed method is verified by the test results of no load, load and short circuit test.

In this paper, boundary layer flow is observed through stretching cylinder exponentially with non-linear velocity. This cylinder is rested in porous medium. Appropriate similarity transformation is employed for the conversion of governing PDEs into ODEs. To compute the problem and solution series numerical method is applied and evaluated by using finite difference Keller-Box method. The velocity ratio, permeability parameter, Reynold number is figure out to examine the effect of on velocity profile. Fluid velocity and skin friction coefficient goes down with increment of Reynold number and permeability parameter. While reverse behavior is reported for velocity ratio. The results are validated with earlier investigations and found very well.

Reluctance Synchronous Motors(RSM) with new rotor shape are considered in this paper. Since the stator of a RSM is similar as that of an induction motor, attention is focused here on the rotor structure. We have designed the parameter of RSM and analyzed the characteristics of the electromagnetic energy conversion.
