Recently, hearing loss patients have been increasing to excessive use of various multimedia devices. One of the hearing rehabilitation systems, bone conduction hearing aid can be used to conductive deafness patients efficiently. However, the conventional bone conduction hearing systems has some problems such as skin diseases, repulsion of patients, and vibration power reduction by skin damping. In this paper, to overcome the conventional problems, we proposed power improvement method by curved beam diaphragm. The proposed method is skin attachment system which is non-implantable, and then the power of transducer is improved by the proposed method. In order to improve the vibration power of diaphragm, variable that has correlation with displacement are extracted, the diaphragm designed by extracted variable. To verify efficient of the proposed method, experiment conducted by finite element analysis. As a result of, the proposed method confirmed improved power to compare with the conventional method and proposed method.

This paper describes the method to measure of the vibrational power transmitted from the vibration source to the supporting structure in the horizontal direction. Generally, it is impossible to measure horizontal forces at the coupling points. However. the vibrational Power transmitted in the horizontal direction can be measured by using indirect method that is based on the mechanical impedance and velocities at the coupling points. We proposed the method to estimate the vibrational power when the vibration source and supporting structure cannot be separated. In this paper. the vibrational power transmitted in the horizontal direction is also estimated by using this method. The estimated and measured results of the mobilities at the coupling point and vibrational power in the horizontal direction are compared. It is shown that the estimated results agree well with the measured results. For the supporting structure with multiple coupling points, the other coupling points should be considered for measuring the vibrational power transmitted through one coupling points. We examine the effects of other coupling points and measure the vibrational power without considering the other coupling points.

In the active power filter, the PWM method for controlling the power converter plays an important role for the performance and the efficiency of the filter. In this paper, a new PWM method for the single phase current source type active power filter is presented, which is intended particularly for obtaining the maximum efficiency of the compensation. This method is basically based upon the optimized injection method, but in contrast to the existing method, this method adapts the optimized injection method by putting not only the pulse width, but also the pulse position into control variables. By doing this, when the number of pulses per one cycle is N, lower order harmonics up to the Nth order can be completely eliminated by the filter. So, this method is much more efficient than any other existing method. These characteristics are well verified by the computer simulations and the experiments.

In this paper, we researched on the improved method for transferring noise which is generated from power island. In general case, the power island has a drawback where the noise transfer increase because of the structural resonance in each power bus. Thus, this paper suggests two improved methods that reduces the noise transfer. First method is to suppress the structural resonance by varying the source of the noise. The second method is to utilize the EGI in order to minimize the EGI in order to minimize the transfer of the noise when the resonance occurs. The simulation analysis shows that the relocation of the noise source dramatically minimized the resonance in power bus and the utilization of EGI has effectively reduced the noise transfer.

The ability to calculate the material density sensitivity coefficients of power with respect to the material density has broad application prospects for accelerating Monte Carlo-Thermal Hydraulics iterations. The second-order material density sensitivity coefficients for the general Monte Carlo score have been derived based on the differential operator sampling method in this paper, and the calculation of the sensitivity coefficients of cell power scores with respect to the material density has been realized in continuous-energy Monte Carlo code RMC. Based on the power-density sensitivity coefficients, the sensitivity coefficients of power scores to some other physical quantities, such as power-boron concentration coefficients and power-temperature coefficients considering only the thermal expansion, were subsequently calculated. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated in the power-density coefficients problems of the pressurized water reactor (PWR) moderator and the heat pipe reactor (HPR) reflectors. The calculations were carried out using RMC and the ENDF/B-VII.1 neutron nuclear data. It is shown that the calculated sensitivity coefficients can be used to predict the power scores accurately over a wide range of boron concentration of the PWR moderator and a wide range of temperature of HPR reflectors.

The fuzzy controllers have been applied to the power system stabilizer due to its excellent properties on the nonlinear systems. But the design process of fuzzy controller requires empirical and heuristic knowledge of human experts as well as many trial-and-errors in general. This process is time consuming task. This paper presents an parameters tuning method of the fuzzy power system stabilizer using the genetic algorithm and simulated annealing(SA). The proposed method searches the local minimum point using the simulated annealing algorithm. The proposed method is applied to the one-machine infinite-bus of a power system. Through the comparative simulation with conventional stabilizer and fuzzy stabilizer tuned by genetic algorithm under various operating conditions and system parameters, the robustness of fuzzy stabilizer tuned by proposed method with respect to the nonlinear power system is verified.

We have limited the transfer power to capital area below a certain level which is called "The Capital Area Transfer Power Limit", and calculated on every Thursday for the application next week. This level is very important in our network operation, because if this level is not set properly, our power network can be fallen under great danger in case of a fault among the transfer power line. But the calculation procedure for the limit level is so complicated and iterative that it mace us spend much time and do much work. So, when a sudden trip of the related facility to the limit level we can't recalculate the limit level fast enough. And this can drop our network reliability below our standards, therefore our network can be dangerous. To avoid this kind of problems, we have figured out a method to calculate simply the limit level. That method uses the index related to the level. We think this method can make short of the calculation procedures for the level. This paper deals with the simplified method for the calculation of the level limit.

This paper proposes a new anti-islanding method for single-phase grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems using Goertzel algorithm. The proposed scheme is based on inducing increases or decreases of frequencies of load voltage and current that is in the form of existences or periodical variations of the reactive power components. The frequency detection is needed to apply this power variation method to the grid-connected power converter. The proposed method is able to get a fast detection for anti-islanding without the effect of harmonics and noises. The simulation and experiment results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A hybrid sinusoidal-pulse current (HSPC) charging method for the Li-ion batteries in electric vehicle applications is proposed in this paper. The HSPC charging method is based on the Li-ion battery ac-impedance spectrum analysis, while taking into account the high power requirement and system integration. The proposed HSPC method overcomes the power limitation in the sinusoidal ripple current (SRC) charging method. The charger shares the power devices in the motor inverter for hardware cost saving. Phase shifting in multiple pulse currents is employed to generate a high frequency multilevel charging current. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed HSPC method improves the charger efficiency related to the hardware and the battery energy transfer efficiency.
