In this study, a variable induction and exhaust system is applied to turbocharged diesel engine to improve the volumetric efficiency, especially, in a low and transient engine speed range where much of the pollutant matters are expelled out. The volumetric efficiency is known as one of the most important factor which affects significantly engine performance, fuel economy and further emission and noise level. As the torque increase with the engine speed up, the gas flow in an exhaust pipe become pulsating and then has an effect on boost up capacity of air charging into the cylinder and expelling capacity to atmosphere simultaneously. But at a low and idling speed, the pulsation effect was not so significant. Accordingly, resonator was employed to compensate their loss. The variable induction system consists of the secondary pipe, resonator, intercooler, and torque variance were examined with extended operating conditions. In the mean time, for interpretation and well understanding for the phenomena of wave action that arising during intake and exhaust process between turbocharger and variable intake system, the concept of the combined supercharging was introduced. Some of results are depicted which deal with a pressure history during valve events of induction process. Consequently, by the governing of these phase and amplitude of pulsating wave, it enables us to estimate and evaluate for the intake system performance and also, designing stage of the system layout.

This study aims to find out success factors of crowdfunding on movie projects. For empirical analysis, we collected 583 data of the movie projects from the crowdfunding platform 'Tumblbug'. To figure out the success factors, we examined effects of 10 independent variables on 1 dependent variable. The independent variable includes target amount, project information, reward options, creator funding power, editor recommendation, creator contents power, movie type, number of comments, number of replies, and number of SNS information. The final achievement rate of crowdfunding was set as dependent variable. This study found that the target amount, number of text information, number of video information, editor recommendation, number of backers' reply, and number of SNS information had a significant impact on the achievement rate of the movie crowdfunding project. This study has implications in that it has discovered a variable of editor recommendation and the number of SNS information, and both of them have a positive effect on crowdfunding achievement.

This paper itltroduces a simple stair-case PWM using the pseudo-sinusoidal method. In a configuration of controller, the value of sine as a fundamental factor divided into stair-case level and the three-phase PWM inverter is composed by digital compound for each value of stair-case level. The three-phase output pulse at a fixed carrier frequency and a variable reference frequency is obtained under the effect of reduced harmonics. In this experiment, using the power FET as the switching device, 0.5 H.P. induction motor operation is performed when the switching frequency is 20KHz.

This paper presents a control method for variable-speed motor drives that do not use a DC-link electrolytic capacitor. The proposed circuit consists of a power factor correction converter for boosting the DC-link voltage, an inverter for driving the motor, and a small DC-link film capacitor. By employing a small DC-link capacitor, the proposed circuit that is small, and a low cost and weight are achieved. However, because the DC-link voltage varies periodically, the control of the circuit is more difficult than that of the conventional method. Using the proposed control method, an inverter can be controlled reliably even when the capacitance of the DC-link capacitor is very small. Experiments are performed using a 1.5-kW inverter with a $20-{\mu}F$ DC-link capacitor, and the experimental results are analyzed thoroughly.

The subject of this investigation is to study the buckling of cross-ply laminated orthotropic cylindrical thin shells with variable elasticity moduli and densities in the thickness direction, under external pressure, which is a power function of time. The dynamic stability and compatibility equations are obtained first. These equations are subsequently reduced to a system of time dependent differential equations with variable coefficients by using Galerkin's method. Finally, the critical dynamic and static loads, the corresponding wave numbers, the dynamic factors, critical time and critical impulse are found analytically by applying a modified form of the Ritz type variational method. The dynamic behavior of cross-ply laminated cylindrical shells is investigated with: a) lamina that present variations in the elasticity moduli and densities, b) different numbers and ordering of layers, and c) external pressures which vary with different powers of time. It is concluded that all these factors contribute to appreciable effects on the critical parameters of the problem in question.

The main two drawbacks of the Sin91e Stage PFC (SS-PFC) converters employing a DCM Boost PFC cell are relatively high voltage stress on the bulk capacitor and the input current harmonic distortion. The high voltage stress on bulk capacitor makes the SS-PFC converter impractical in a universal input application and the input current harmonic distortion lowers power factor. In this paper a selective variable frequency control that reduces the voltage stress on the bulk capacitor and the input current harmonic distortion is proposed. Computer simulation results of the proposed control method are presented.

This paper is proposed one method of the exact optimal switching pattern of Selected Harmonic Elimination(SHE) Pulse Width Modulation(PWM). It defined Harmonic Elimination Band (HEB) at Constant Voltage(CV) and sought all solutions which are included HEB. Then, it calculated the Generalized Klirr Factor(GKF) beling to this solution and decided the optimal switching pattern which is minimized GKF. This optimal switching solution is used as initial condition of Newto Raphson(NR) method of decided easily switching pattern at Variable Voltage(VV). We desined the inverter by Power Transister(PTR) and implemented variable speed drive of Induction Motor(IM) in order to verify the validity of this theoretical proposition, then shown this results by comparison and analysis.

The electronic ballasts for low pressure discharge lamps are produced and commercialized. However, the electronic ballasts for high pressure lamps are now in progress because of poor reliability and high cost. The major case of troubles with electronic ballasts are thermal destruction of semiconductor output switches due to non ideal i-v characteristics of switch. The loss converts to heat and rises the temperature of switch and it increases proportionally to switching frequency and value of current and voltage. This study shows the variable frequency ballasts which can suppress the heating of switches efficiently. It is used for the limitation the switch current and the rising temperature of switch by impedance variation of lamp inductor. As a result, initial warm-up time of the proposed ballasts was faster than that of magnetic ballasts about 90 msec. Power factor of tested ballasts follow as ; input and output average of magnetic ballasts are 93 [%] and 86 [%], respectively, And proposed ballasts are 97 [%] and 99 [%], respectively.

Usually, in many applications. high frequency resonant inverters are used, and the PAM(Pulse Amplitude Modulation), PFM(Pulse Frequency Modulation) or PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) techniques are used to control the output power of resonant inverters. And the resonant inverters have to control the output frequency for the reliable operation under the variable load conditions. In this paper, a new switching scheme is proposed as a resonant frequency following control of resonant inverters. With the proposed method. it can be obtained that optimum resonant frequency and unity output displacement factor under the variable resonant frequency adaptively. The detail algorithm of the proposed switching scheme and its characteristics are discussed. And the veridity of the proposed method is confirmed with the experimental results.
