In order to achieve a gearless construction of the wind energy conversion system(WECS), a low-speed generator should be used. Of the various candidate machine types, radial-field, multi-pole, permanent magnet, synchronous machines may be used for low-speed applications. So, this paper deals with the design of direct-coupled, multi-pole radial field machines with permanent magnet(PM) excitation for wind power applications for cogging torque reduction through the determination of optimum pole arc/pitch ratio. On the basis of an equivalent magnetic circuit method(EMCM) and a space harmonic method(SHM), an initial design is performed considering restricted conditions. And then, a detailed design is made using a non-linear finite element analyses(FEA). Finally, test results concerning generating characteristics are given to confirm the validation of the design.

최근에 생산되는 디지털 VLSI칩들은 그 집적도가 계속 높아지고 있으며, 이러한 칩들을 장착한 보드의 경우도 그 복잡성이 점차 높아지고 있다. 이에 따라 칩 및 보드에 대한 철저한 테스트 과정이 요구된다. 지금까지 보드 테스트 방법으로 널리 쓰였던 ICT(In-Circuit Test)는 칩의 고집적화에 따른 핀 간격의 조밀화와 SMT(Surface Mount Technology), BGA(Ball Grid Array), MCM(Multi Chip Module) 등의 새로운 패키징 방식의 등장에 따라 테스트 방법으로의 한계성을 드러내고 있다. 이에 대한 대안으로 등장한 IEEE Std 1149.1 은 ICT의 한계성을 극복할 수 있는 기술일 뿐 아니라 여러 가지 장점을 가지고 있으며 그 활용 분야도 다양하다. 본 논문에서는 IEEE Std 1149.1에 따라 설계된 보드 상에서 발생 가능한 고장들에 대한 고장 모델을 제시한다. 또한 각 고장 모델들의 양상과 진단 기법을 제시한다. 이를 통해 IEEE Std 1149.1에 따라 설계된 보드 상에서 발생한 고장들을 검출할 수 있으며, 고장의 종류 및 성격, 그리고 고장의 발생 위치 등의 정보를 얻을 수 있다. IEEE Std 1149.1에 따른 보드 설계가 보드의 신뢰성 보장에 긴요함을 인식하는 계기가 되기를 기대하며 제시된 고장 모델 및 진단 기법이 기술적으로 중요한 참고자료가 되기를 기대한다.

1 mol% $Li_2O$ excess $0.9(Na_{0.52}K_{0.48})NbO_3-0.1LiTaO_3$ lead-free piezoelectric multilayer ceramic actuators were investigated to determine their aging properties. To reduce the thermal aging behavior, we applied a rectified unipolar electric field of 5 kV/mm to the specimen to accelerate the electric aging behavior. By employing a rectified unipolar electric field for the piezoelectric actuators, we could remove undesirable heating from the relaxation current in the motion of the ferroelectric domain. To accelerate the aging test, the applied electric fields had a frequency of 900 Hz. To have enough time for charging and discharging, we employed an accurate time constant to design the equivalent circuit model for the aging tester. To extract exact aging behavior, we measured the pseudo-piezoelectric coefficient before and after the aging process. We also measured the electro-mechanical coupling coefficient, the frequency-dependent dielectric permittivity, and the impedance to compare with fresh and aged specimen.

This experimental study describes the propagation characteristics and reduction of impulse noises emitted from a high voltage COS(Cut Out Switch) fuse of a transformer. When a high voltage COS fuse becomes a short circuit by the over current. The peak sound Pressure above 150dB(A) is generated. In this study, an impulse noise generator is designed for generating the impulse noises similar to the noise level of COS fuse, which is utilized to test the noise reduction of a reactive silencer. The reactive silencers have been tested for 10 different types with each different porosity, hole diameter and length. From the experimental results, it is found that the reactive silencer has an excellent performance to greatly suppress the impulse noise and that its performance is closely connected with the porosity and hole diameter.

This paper presents a system that measures the acceleration of the shock caused by the explosion of the precursor warhead for the tandem projectile. The proposed system, which is implemented based on the MIL-STD-810G, Method 517.1, consists of a miniaturized shock measurement device, a cable, accelerometers, and a trigger circuit. The shock measurement device has a size of ¢102 × 171 mm and cable has a length of 3 m. The operational confirmation test is conducted by implementing the measurement system. The Analysis of shock data(accelerometer output data) is carried out using Shock Response Spectrum(SRS), pseudo velocity and plot of acceleration time transient. Through measurement analysis, one can predict the damage of electronics in projectile when precursor warhead is exploded.

Conformal coating is a technology that protects PCB(Printed Circuit Board) and minimizes PCB failures. Since the defects in the coating are linked to failure of the PCB, the coating surface is examined for air bubbles to satisfy the successful conditions of the conformal coating. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for detecting problematic bubbles in high-risk groups by applying image signal processing. The algorithm consists of finding candidates for problematic bubbles and verifying candidates. Bubbles do not appear in visible light images, but can be visually distinguished from UV(Ultra Violet) light sources. In particular the center of the problematic bubble is dark in brightness and the border is high in brightness. In the paper, these brightness characteristics are called valley and mountain features, and the areas where both characteristics appear at the same time are candidates for problematic bubbles. However, it is necessary to verify candidates because there may be candidates who are not bubbles. In the candidate verification phase, we used convolutional neural network models, and ResNet performed best compared to other models. The algorithms presented in this paper showed the performance of precision 0.805, recall 0.763, and f1-score 0.767, and these results show sufficient potential for bubble test automation.

This paper proposes a cost-efficient and flexible FPGA-based logic circuit emulation platform. By improving the performance and adding more features, this new platform is an enhanced version of our LAPG. It consists of an FPGA-based hardware engine and software element to drive the emulation and monitor the results. It also provides an interactive verification environment which uses an efficient communication protocol through a bi-directional serial link between the host and the FPGA board. The experimental results show that this new approach saves $55%{\sim}99%$ of communication overhead compared with other methods. According to the test results, the new LAPG is more area efficient in complex circuits with many I/O ports.

In this paper, we are proposing an optimal design of wideband pulsed type gamma-ray sensors. These sensors were manufactured based on the design results and after word electrical properties were analyzed. The sensor input parameters were derived on the basis of pulsed gamma-ray spectrum and time-dependent energy rate, and the output current which were derived on the basis of the sensor sensitivity control circuit. Pulsed gamma-ray sensors were designed using the TCAD simulators. The design results show that the optimal Epi layer thickness is 45um with the applied voltage 3.3V and the diameter is 2.0mm. The doping concentrations are as follows : N-type is an Arsenic as $1{\times}10^{19}/cm^3$, P-type is a Boron as $1{\times}10^{19}/cm^3$ and Epi layer is Phosphorus as $3.4{\times}10^{12}/cm^3$. The fabricated sensor was a leakage current, 12pA at voltage -3.3V and fully depleted mode at voltage -5V. A test result of pulsed radiation shows that the sensor gives out the optimal photocurrent.
