The information obtained from eye-gaze is closely related to physical movements in any activity. It is important to establish a method to measure eye-hand coordination for extracting skilled elements and understanding the skill acquisition process. Using a system which consists of an eye mark recorder and a three-dimensional location measurement device, a method for measuring eye-hand coordination was proposed on the basis of the simultaneous measurement of eye-gaze and brush tip locations. After describing the measurement algorithm, the eye-hand coordination during calligraphy was exemplified. More concretely, using such a system, an attempt was made to show that the relationship between the line of eye-gaze and the brush tip stroke was different between a novice and an expert. In such a way, we suggested that the proposed method is promising for exploring the process of skill acquisition.展开更多

It is derived from a 3-level non differential double-boost PFC including fly-cap cells. The series-connection of the two low-voltage switching-cells is decoupled by a single flying capacitor that provides a direct fault-tolerant capability and a post-failure operation increasing the availability of converter. The monitoring of the voltages across flying capacitors allows a rapid detection and localization either for open circuit failure or short-circuits failure. A PWM (pulse width modulation) phase-disposition type reconfiguration is also used and presented in order to optimize both normal operation and post-fault continuation. The design and the most important features are highlighted thanks to a digital control frame and a mock-up rated to: AC voltage network 115 V-load 400 V-nominal power 4 kW-switching frequency 62 kHz.展开更多

Head point testing of cooling device is monitoring temperature on the aluminium block of energy converter, heat pipes and ribs under temperature condition 30 ℃ in thermostatic chamber. Testing of the device was performed at tilt angles positions 0, 10 and 20° from the vertical level. The heat flux loaded to energy converter was 450 W. The next goal of the paper is to research on influence working position of the wick heat pipe on their thermal performance. In this research heat pipes were made with capillary structure sintered from copper powder granularity 100, 63 and 50 μm filled with water and ethanol. Next heat pipe thermal performance was performed by measuring heat source and working positions. Knowledge of these two research goals can bring potential improvements in purpose of cooling device for effective heat sink from high power electronic components.展开更多

For this purpose, at first the optimal place of TCSC and SVC is investigated and the optimal size is determined. At the end, a comparison is made between the two FACTS devices. For calculating Available Transfer Capability (ATC), Repeated Power-Flow (RPF) rule used, and the network limitations such as voltage, stability, thermal capacity, and power generation limits are taken into consideration. The proposed algorithm is run on a sample network. Results show effectiveness of TCSC in situations where the thermal limit is the dominant limitation of the network. In such situations, SVC is almost useless. It was also seen that under conditions of voltage limitations, both elements are helpful for the enhancement of ATC.展开更多
