The main property of VSC is that the system response is robust and insensitive to parameter variations and external disturbances in the sliding mode if their bounds are known to the designer of the system control. But sometimes these bounds may not be easily obtained. However, fuzzy control provides an effective way to design the controller of the system with the disturbances and parameter variations. Therefore, combination of the best feature of fuzzy control and sliding mode control is considered. When using the conventional VSC, generally the reaching phase problem occurs, which cause the system response to be sensitive to parameter variations and external disturbances. In order to overcome these problems, a robust position control method of the BLDC motor using an adaptive fuzzy VSC without leaching phase is presented.

Objective : The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of Cheonggugamrosu. a gargling agent made from herb extracts, to decrease oral malodor in vitro and in clinical research. Methods : For in vitro experiment. samples were Garglin (over-the-counter mouthwash), CheonggugamrosuA and Cheonggugamrosu B. Deodorizing activity of each sample against methyl mercaptan were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC). In clinical examination. subjects were 73 students from the oriental medicine school of Kyunghee University. The concentration of VSC in oral cavity of each subject was measured by Halimeter and subjects were divided into 3 groups that would gargle for 30 seconds with normal saline. Garglin and CheonggugamrosuA. Subsequently, concentration of VSC was measured in same way immediately, 2 hours and 4 hours after gargling. Results : During in vitro experiment by GC, deodorizing activities were 46.77% with Garglin, 80.64% with Cheonggugamrosu A and 82.28% with Cheonggugamrosu B. In clinical examination, at 2 hours after gargling, the concentration of VSC in the Cheonggugamrosu A group was significantly lower than in the normal saline group, but not in the Garglin group. 4 hours after gargling, the concentration of VSC in both CheonggugamrosuA and Garglin wasn't significantly different from the one in the normal saline group. Conclusions : Cheonggugamrosuhad better and longer deodorizing effect than Garglin in this study. Because of the safety of herbal medicine and its efficaciousness, we can use Cheonggugamrosu as a clinical prescription.

A Fuzzy Logic Sliding Mode Control or FLSMC for the uninterruptible power system (UPS) is presented, which is tracking a sinusoidal ac voltage with specified frequency and amplitude. The FLSMC algorithm combines feedforward strategy with the Variable Structure Control (VSC) or Sliding Mode Control (SMC) and fuzzy logic control. The control function is derived to guarantee the existence of a sliding mode. FLSMC has an advantage that the stability of FLSMC can be proved easily in terms of VSC. Furthermore, the rules of the proposed FLSMC are independent of the number of system state variables because the input of the suggested controller is fuzzy quantity sliding surface value. Hence the rules of the proposed FLSMC can be reduced. The simulation results illustrate that the purposed approach gives a significant improvement on the tracking performances. It has the small overshoot in the transient and the smaller chattering in the steady state than the conventional VSC. Moreover, its can achieve the requirements of robustness and can supply a high-quality voltage power source in the presence of plant parameter variations, external load disturbances and nonlinear dynamic interactions.

A tracking control scheme on the XY ball-screw drive system in the presence of nonlinear dynamic friction is proposed. A nonlinear dynamic friction is regarded as the Lund-Grenoble friction model to compensate effects of friction. The conventional VSC method that often has been used as a non-model-based friction controller has poor tracking performance in high-precision position tracking application since it cannot compensate the friction effect below a certain precision level completely. Thus to improve the precise position tracking performance, we propose the integral type VSC method combined with the friction-model-based observer. Then this control scheme has the high precise tracking performance compared with the non-model-baked VSC method and the PID control method with a similar observer. This fact is shown through the experiment on the XY ball-screw drive system with the nonlinear dynamic friction.

Faced with unbalanced grid operation mode, the high voltage direct current (HVDC) based on voltage source converter (VSC) can be properly controlled by a dual current control scheme. For the modular multilevel converter (MMC) controlling the AC side current is able to limit the arm current which flows along the IGBT of submodule (SM) to rated current. However the limitation of the arm current results in leaving the control range of active power at MMC confined to below the rated capacity. As a result, limiting the arm current causes the problem that the DC side voltage of the HVDC can not be controlled to the reference value since MMC HVDC adjusts the DC side voltage through the active power. In this paper, we propose the algorithm adjusting the active powers of both MMCs to resolve the problem. The back-to-back MMC HVDC applying the algorithm is modeled by PSCAD/EMTDC to verify the algorithm.

The scott transformer changes three-phase power to two single-phase power. However, this method causes unbalance and fluctuation of voltage by the change of electric railload. Recently, the AC railway system based on $3{\Phi}/1{\Phi}$ back-to-back (BTB) voltage source converter (VSC) has been proposed to solve these problems. Meanwhile, battery energy storage system (BESS) is used to compensate voltage instantaneously in power system. In this paper, BESS application to the AC railway system based on $3{\Phi}/1{\Phi}$ BTB VSC is suggested to compensate voltage instantaneously. The application effect is shown through simulation using MATLAB/SIMULINK.

VSC-HVDC system is vulnerable to a DC fault because the fault current can be injected from AC system to DC system during the fault. Therefore, DC circuit breaker is required to isolate faults in VSC-HVDC system. The inverse current injection method of circuit breaker has been considered as DC circuit breaker. However, the topology has drawback that the breaking time is longer than hybrid circuit breaker using semiconductor devices. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes an improved topology of circuit breaker based on inverse current injection method. In addition, the proposed topology will be compared with the existing topology. And we will verify its effects by using the simulation results.

This paper describes the novel control techniques design of VSC(Voltage Sag Corrector) for the purpose of power line quality enhancement. A fast detecting technique of voltage sag is implemented through the detection of instantaneous value on synchronous rotating dq-reference frame. The first order digital filter is added in the detection algorithm to protect the insensitive characteristics against the noise. The relationship between the total detection time and cut-off frequency of the filter is described. The size of the capacitor bank used as the energy storage element is designed from the point of view of input/output energy with circuit analysis. Finally, the validity of the proposed scheme is proven through the simulated results.

This study deals with the modulation index (MI) of a voltage source converter (VSC) HVDC system based on a modular multilevel converter (MMC). In the two-level converter, the purpose of the MI is to maximize the achievable AC voltage of the converter from a fixed DC voltage. Unlike that in a two-level converter, the MI in the MMC topology plays a role in making the converter a voltage source using a capacitor. The circulating current in the MMC distorts the AC voltage reference, and the distortion affects the MI. In addition, the AC network conditions, such as AC voltage variation and reactive power, affect the MI. Therefore, the MI should be optimized with consideration of internal and external factors. This study proposes a method to optimize the MI of an MMC HVDC system.
