The flyback converter, which can be regarded as a nonlinear time-varying system, has complex dynamics and nonlinear behaviors. These phenomena can affect the stability of the converter. To simplify the modeling process and retain the information of the output capacitor branch, a special sampled-data model of a peak current-mode (PCM) controlled flyback converter is established in this paper. Based on this, its dynamic behaviors are analyzed, which provides guidance for designing the circuit parameters of the converter. With the critical stability boundary equation derived by a Jacobian matrix, the stable operation range with a varied output capacitor, proportional coefficient of error the amplifier, input voltage, reference voltage and slope of the compensation ramp of a PCM controlled flyback converter are investigated in detail. Research results show that the duty ratio should be less than 0.5 for a PCM controlled flyback converter without ramp compensation to operate in a stable state. The stability regions in the parameter space between the output capacitor and the proportional coefficient of the error amplifier are enlarged by increasing the input voltage or by decreasing the reference voltage. Furthermore, the ramp compensation also can extend to the stable region. Finally, time-domain simulations and experimental results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis results.

본 논문은 상하 회전형 차동 구동부를 이용한 자기 유도 무인운반차에 대한 연구이다. 기존의 자기 유도 무인운반차는 주행 정보를 얻기 위해 자기 위치측정 센서 외에 랜드마크 및 이를 인식하기 위한 추가적인 센서가 필요하다. 또한, 일반적으로 사용되는 고정형 차동 구동부를 사용할 경우 자기 유도 무인운반차의 무게 불균형으로 인해 위치측정 오차의 증가 및 제어에 어려움이 존재하므로 2개 이상의 구동부를 필요로 한다. 이러한 단점들을 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 상하 회전형 차동 구동부를 이용한 자기 유도 무인운반차를 제안한다. 제안된 무인운반차는 주행 경로상에 자석의 양극으로 패턴을 구성하고 자기 위치측정 센서로 주행 정보를 획득하며, 하나의 상하 회전형 차동 구동부를 이용하여 후진 주행을 제어한다. 또한, 위치측정 오차의 감소를 위해 KF(Kalman filter)를 적용하여 무인운반차의 위치측정 정밀도를 향상시킨다. 제안된 방법의 성능을 확인하기 위하여 직접 제작한 자기 유도 무인운반차를 이용하여 실험하였다. 실험 결과, 제안된 방법의 패턴 인식 및 무인운반차의 후진 주행 성능을 확인할 수 있었으며, 기존의 방법보다 위치측정 정밀도의 RMSE가 더 감소된 것을 확인하였다.

This paper describes a lateral guidance system of an unmanned vehicle, using a neural network model of magneto-resistive sensor and magnetic fields. The model equation was compared with experimental sensing data. We found that the experimental result has a negligible difference from the modeling equation result. We verified that the modeling equation can be used in the unmanned vehicle simulations. As the neural network controller acquires magnetic field values(B$\_$x/, B$\_$y/, B$\_$z/) from the three-axis, the controller outputs a steering angle. The controller uses the back-propagation algorithms of neural network. The learning pattern acquisition was obtained using computer simulation, which is more exact than human driving. The simulation program was developed in order to verify the acquisition of the learning pattern, learning itself, and the adequacy of the design controller. A computer simulation of the vehicle (including vehicle dynamics and steering) was used to verify the steering performance of the vehicle controller using the neural network. Good results were obtained. Also, the real unmanned electrical vehicle using neural network controller verified good results.

Intervertebral intradural lumbar disc herniation (ILDH) is a quite rare pathology, and isolated intradural lumbar disc herniation is even more rare. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may not be able to reveal ILDHs, especially if MRI findings show an intact lumbar disc annulus and posterior longitudinal ligament. Here, we present an exceedingly rare case of an isolated IDLH that we initially misidentified as a spinal intradural tumor, in a 54-year-old man hospitalized with a 2-month history of back pain and right sciatica. Neurologic examination revealed a positive straight leg raise test on the right side, but he presented no other sensory, motor, or sphincter disturbances. A gadolinium-enhanced MRI revealed what we believed to be an intradural extramedullary tumor compressing the cauda equina leftward in the thecal sac, at the L2 vertebral level. The patient underwent total L2 laminectomy, and we extirpated the intradural mass under microscopic guidance. Histologic examination of the mass revealed a degenerated nucleus pulposus.

Cardiac computed tomography (CT) and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) can reveal the detailed anatomy and function of the tricuspid valve and right ventricle (RV). Quantification of tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and analysis of RV function have prognostic implications. With the recently available transcatheter treatment options for diseases of the tricuspid valve, evaluation of the tricuspid valve using CT and CMR has become important in terms of patient selection and procedural guidance. Moreover, CT enables post-procedural investigation of the causes of valve dysfunction, such as pannus or thrombus. This review describes the anatomy of the tricuspid valve and CT and CMR imaging protocols for right heart evaluation, including RV function and TR analyses. We also demonstrate the pre-procedural planning for transcatheter treatment of TR and imaging of postoperative complications using CT.

Single-port video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) has slowly established itself as an alternate surgical approach for the treatment of an increasingly wide range of thoracic conditions. The potential benefits of fewer surgical incisions, better cosmesis, and less postoperative pain and paraesthesia have led to the technique's popularity worldwide. The limited single small incision through which the surgeon has to operate poses challenges that are slowly being addressed by improvements in instrument design. Of note, instruments and video-camera systems that are narrower and angulated have made single-port VATS major lung resection easier to perform and learn. In the future, we may see the development of subcostal or embryonic natural orifice translumenal endoscopic surgery access, evolution in anaesthesia strategies, and cross-discipline imaging-assisted lesion localization for single-port VATS procedures.

A nonlinear controller based on feedback linearization method is proposed for an electromagnetic suspension system. After exactly linearizing the system with nonlinear feedback, linear control technique is applied. Modeling of stagger typed magnet is introduced and controlled for not only levitation, but guidance. By the feedback linearization, the nonlinear, MIMO system is linearized and decoupled, so we can use linear control law. The simulation of this system control skim is demonstrated. Robustness properties of the proposed controller with respect to the load variations and external disturbance is also analyzed for a multi input multi output system. In this properties, the boundary of variation is proposed.

In magnetic levitation and repulsion systems, the eddy current on the rail induced by the motion of vehicle, plays an important role on forces. The 3-dimensional finite element method is used to analyze these phenomina. The non-linear analysis is also carried out using Newton-Raphson method. The levitation, drag, and guidance forces are compared with those obtained by two-dimensional linear analysis and three-dimensional linear analysis.

This paper describes a turnout without movable parts for magnetically levitated vehicles with hybrid magnets, which have been studied by the authors in place of streetcars. Their low construction cost and low maintenance is key to their practical use. Magnetic levitation systems using forces of attraction can generate guidance force automatically, but the damping force against lateral motion is negligible. However, the lateral damping characteristic was improved by using divided iron type magnets and rails. Using this turnout without movable parts will facilitate smooth direction switching.
