According to the adoption of inverter circuit topology for welding machine area, the improvement of welding performance can be achieved. However conventional CO2 inverter arc welding machine uses the constant voltage characteristics. So the metal transfer is performed under unoptimum condition in the sence of spatter generation. In this paper the new control algorithm is proposed for welding machine, which is the instantaneous output current control method using single chip microprocessor. But the optimum waveform of welding current is still uncertain, as a first step for figuring out the optimized waveforms, this study was performed. And as a result of performance test of the proposed system, it was demonstrated that all of the waveform variation parameter could be set individually and the generated spatter is reduced compared to conventional inverter arc welding machine.

This paper presents a novel spring pressure contact interconnect technique for medium power integrated power electronics modules (IPEMs). The key technology of this interconnection is a spring which is made from Be-Cu alloy. By means of the string pressure contact, sufficient press-contact force and good electrical interconnection can be achieved. Another important advantage is that the spring exhibits excellent performance in enduring thermo-mechanical stress. In terms of manufacture procedure, it is also comparatively simple. A 4 kW half-bridge power inverter module is fabricated to demonstrate the performance of the proposed pressure contact technique. Electrical, thermal and mechanical test results of the packaged device are reported. The results of both the simulation and experiment have proven that a good performance can be achieved by the proposed pressure contact technique for the medium power IPEMs.

In this paper, we propose a finite impulse response (FIR) filter under malicious cyber attacks. The FIR filter shows the robust performance against the malicious cyber attacks. The Kalman filter (KF), one of the widely used filters, is introduced as a comparison of robust performance of the proposed method. The robust performance of the proposed method under malicious cyber attacks is demonstrated through experimental results.

In this study, a new approach using electrical resistivity measurement was proposed to detect grout penetration and to evaluate the grouting performance for such as waterproof efficiency in single rock fracture. For this purpose, an electrical resistivity monitoring system was designed to collect multi-channel data in real time. This was applied to a system for grout injection/penetration using a transparent fracture replica with various aperture sizes and water-cement mix ratio. The electrical resistivity was measured under various grout penetration conditions in real time, which results were directly compared to the visual observation images of grout penetration/distribution. Moreover, the grouting success status after the curing process was evaluated by measuring the electrical resistivity in relation to changes in frequency in fracture cells where grout injection and penetration were completed. Consequently, it was determined that the electrical resistivity monitoring system could be applied effectively to the detection of successful penetration of grouting into a target area and to actual field evaluation of the grouting performance and long-term stability of underground rock structures.

This paper investigates a high-performance strategy for speed sensorless control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor. Two speed sensorless controls using back-EMF and reactive power are analyzed in this paper, and these two speed estimations are appropriately applied according to the steady and transient states for a high-performance sensorless control. The proposed sensorless control algorithm has a better performance compared to the conventional control algorithms.

We consider the design of quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) transceivers f3r fixed wireless communications. The use of adaptive power control in the transmitter (Tx) can provide BER performance robust to fading and improved BER performance. The BER performance is evaluated by analytical and simulation results when multi-level QAM transceiver employing power control in the Tx is applied to fixed wireless channel with flat fading and frequency selective fading. The effect of power control parameters such as power control range and power control step size is investigated

A femtosecond laser pre-annealing process based on indium zinc oxide (IZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs) is fabricated. We demonstrate a stable pre-annealing process to analyze surface structure change of thin films, and we maintain electrical stability and improve electrical performance. Furthermore, dynamic electrical characteristics of the IZO TFTs were investigated. Femtosecond laser pre-annealing process-based IZO TFTs exhibit a field-effect mobility of $3.75cm^2/Vs$, an $I_{on}/I_{off}$ ratio of $1.77{\times}10^5$, a threshold voltage of 1.13 V, and a subthreshold swing of 1.21 V/dec. And the IZO-based inverter shows a fast switching behavior response. From this study, IZO TFTs from using the femtosecond laser annealing technique were found to strongly affect the electrical performance and charge transport dynamics in electronic devices.

In this paper, we fabricated flexible CNT/PVDF piezoelectric composite device by introducing CNTs (carbon nanotubes) into PVDF (poly-vinylidene fluoride) solution using spray coating technique. Flexible PEDOT:PSS conducting polymer was used as electrodes. We tried to improve the piezoelectric performance from the CNT/PVDF composite film by increasing the portion of the ${\beta}$-phase PVDF in the film. We confirmed the structural conformation of the CNT/PVDF composite film as a function of CNT concentration by using FT-IR (fourier transform infra-red). As increasing CNT concentration, portion of the ${\beta}$-phase PVDF and resulting piezoelectric performance increased in the CNT/PVDF composite film. We found that CNTs introduced were played as seeds for formation of the ${\beta}$-phase PVDF in the CNT/PVDF composite film and resulting improvement of the piezoelectric performance.

3GPP's RLC protocol specification adopted an error control scheme based on selective repeat ARQ. In 3GPP ARQ, distinctive windows are provide at transmitting and receiving stations so that those stations are prohibited to send or receive data PDU's out of window. An increase in window size enhances delay performance. Such an increase, however, raises the occupancy at reordering buffer, which results in a long reordering time. Aiming at suppressing the occupancy at reordering buffer, we propose a occupancy control scheme in this paper. In this scheme, a threshold is created in the receiving station's window and a data PDU out of the threshold (but within the window) is treated according to go back N ARQ. By the employment of the occupancy control scheme, the occupancy at the reordering buffer is apparently reduced, while the delay performance may be degraded due to the properties of go back N ARQ. We, thus, investigate the peak occupancy and mean delay performance by a simulation method. From numerical examples, we observe a trade-off in both performance measures and conclude that the peak occupancy is effectively reduced by setting a proper threshold under a constraint on mean delay performance.

The excess heat that is generated from PV modules can be removed and converted into useful thermal energy. A photovoltaic-thermal(PVT) module is a combination of photovoltaic module with a solar thermal collector, forming one device that receives solar radiation and produces electricity and heat simultaneously. In general, two types of PVT can be classified: glass-covered PVT module, which produces high-temperature heat but has a slightly lower electrical yield, and uncovered PVT module, which produces relatively lower temperature heat but has a somewhat higher electrical performance. In this paper, the experimental performance of two types of the PVT combined module(water type), glazed(glass-covered) and unglazed, was analyzed. The electrical and thermal performance of the PVT combined modules were measured in outdoor conditions, and the results were compared.
