The paper summarizes the irradiation test and post-irradiation examination (PIE) data for the U-Mo low-enriched fuel that was irradiated in the MIR reactor under the RERTR Program. The PIE data were analyzed for both full-size fuel rods and mini-rods with atomized powder dispersed in Al matrix as well as with additions of 2%, 5% and 13% of silicon in the matrix and ZrN protective coating on the fuel particles. The full-size fuel rods were irradiated up to an average burnup of ${\sim}60%^{235}U$; the mini-rods were irradiated to an average burnup of ${\sim}85%^{235}U$. The presented data show a significant increase of the void fraction in the U-Mo alloy as the U-235 burnup rises from ~ 40% up to ~ 85%. The effect of irradiation test conditions and U-235 burnup were analyzed with regard to the formation of an interaction layer between the matrix and fuel particles as well as generation of porosity in the U-Mo alloy. Shown here are changes in distribution of U fission products as the U-235 burnup increases from ~ 40% up to ~ 85%.

This paper proposes the modulation and control of a three-to-six-phase matrix converter with an asymmetrical six-phase output. The matrix converter (MC) outputs consist of two sets of three-phase spatially shifted by $30^0$, where the two sets have two isolated neutrals. The space vector approach is considered for the modeling and subsequent modulation of the three-to-six phase MC. The intelligent selection of voltage space vectors is made to synthesize the reference voltages and to obtain a sinusoidal output. The dwell times of selected voltage space vectors are adjusted in such a way that the effect of the second and the third auxiliary plane vectors (i.e., x1-y1, and x2-y2) are nullified. To achieve the maximum output voltage gain and to ensure that no reactive power is drawn from the utility supply, the input side power factor is maintained at unity. Nevertheless, the source side power factor is controllable. The modulation technique is implemented in dSPACE working in conjunction with a FPGA. Hardware results that validate the proposed control algorithm are discussed.

Recently, the daily life safety detection functionalities such as fall accident detection and burn danger detection are widely disseminated along with the development of IoT and smart home. These safety detection functionalities are mostly performed by artificial intelligence. However, simple accuracy measurement of the safety detection in laboratory environment is often far from practical performance in daily life environment. To mitigate this problem, this paper introduces two techniques, i.e. living lab and confusion matrix. Living lab is more than simple simulation of daily life environment, and it enables users to directly participate technology development and product design. Various performance measures induced from confusion matrix significantly help to evaluate the performance of artificial intelligence system for proper application purposes.

Mathematical paradoxes may arise when computations give unexpected results. We use three paradoxes to illustrate how they work in the basic probability theory. In the process of resolving the paradoxes, we expect that student-teachers can pedagogically gain valuable experience in regards to sharpening their mathematical knowledge and critical reasoning.

A representation for the Drazin inverse of an arbitrary square matrix in terms of the eigenprojection was established by Rothblum [SIAM J. Appl. Math., 31(1976) :646-648]. In this paper perturbation results based on the representation for the Darzin inverse $A^D\;=\;(A-X)^{-1}(I-X)$ are developed. Norm estimates of $\parallel(A+E)^D-A^D\parallel_2/\parallel A^D\parallel_2$ and $\parallel(A+E)^#-A^D\parallel_2/\parallel A^D\parallel_2$ are derived when IIEI12 is small.

The concepts of stability of algorithms for solving the symmetric and generalized symmetric-definite eigenproblems are discussed. An algorithm for solving the symmetric eigenproblem $Ax={\lambda}x$ is stable if the computed solution z is the exact solution of some slightly perturbed system $(A+E)z={\lambda}z$. We use both normwise approach and componentwise way of measuring the size of the perturbations in data. If E preserves symmetry we say that an algorithm is strongly stable (in a normwise or componentwise sense, respectively). The relations between the stability and strong stability are investigated for some classes of matrices.

Let R be a ring with identity and P(R) denote the prime radical of R. An element r of a ring R is called strongly P-clean, if there exists an idempotent e such that $r-e=p{\in}P$(R) with ep = pe. In this paper, we determine necessary and sufficient conditions for an element of a trivial Morita context to be strongly P-clean.

철극형동기기를 무부하상태로 전환을 할때 갑지기 2상간에 단락이 돌발한 경우 다른 개로상단자에 유기되는 open-phase voltage의 과도상태를 구명하는데 본 논문의 목적이 있다. 우선 전기자전압의 직축분과 횡축분을 구하기 위하여 Blondel씨가 제창한 이론을 matrix form으로 전개하여 그의 기본전압방정식을 확립시키고 이어서 상간단락전류를 구해가지고 개로상단자에 유기되는 이상전압, 즉 open-phase voltage의 치를 e$_{a}$ =e$_{d}$cos.theta.-e$_{q}$ sin.theta.+e$_{0}$의 관계식에 의거해서 구해보자는 것이다. 논설상의 편의를 도모키 위해 몇가지 가정을 마련하는 것이 순서라고 본다. 제동권선이 없는 철극동기기를 취급하고 포화현상을 무시하며 직축상에 주계자가 존재하는것으로 간주하며, 전기자회로의 저항은 근소치임으로 시정수에 한애서만 영향을 주는 것 이외에는 계산상에서 이를 무시하고 역시 계산에 나오는 무든 양은 per-unit notation을 사용하고 영상분은 고려하지 않으며 대표적인 동기기정수를 x$_{d}$=0.78, x'$_{d}$=0.21, x$_{q}$ =0.48 및 E=1로 정해서 구명해보자는 것이다.

The composites of temperature-sensitive hydrogel and activated carbons were prepared in order to improve both the mechanical strength of hydrogel matrix and the loading capacity of drug in a hydrogel drug delivery system. The swelling of composite hydrogel was varied depending on the temperature. Both the swelling and the release behavior of the composite hydrogel were varied depending on the kind of activated carbon. The release behavior showed the high efficiency which is important for practical applications.
