Non-linear performance analysis and voltage control of MFC based on feedforward fuzzy logic PID strategy

Microbial fuel cell(MFC)is a kind of promising clean power supply energy equipment,but serious nonlinearities and disturbances exist when the MFC runs,and it is an important topic to guarantee that the output voltage reaches the setting value quickly and smoothly.Regulating the feeding flow is an effective way to achieve this goal,and especially,the satisfactory results can be achieved by regulating anode feeding flow.In this work,a feedforward fuzzy logic PID algorithm is proposed.The fuzzy logic system is introduced to deal with the non-linear dynamics of MFC,and corresponding PID parameters are calculated according to defuzzification.The magnitude value of the current density is used to simulate the value of the external load.The simulation results indicate that the MFC output voltage can track the setting value quickly and smoothly with the proposed feedforward fuzzy logic PID algorithm.The proposed algorithm is more efficient and robust with respect to anti-disturbance performance and tracking accuracy than other three control methods.

Flexible Control of Pulsed Power for Biomedical Applications Using PC

This work aims to control pulsed power for biomedical fields, which demands sensitive parameters. The pulsed power consists of a voltage rise time of less than 50 ns and charging energy to 1.0 J/pulse; also, the pulse control area includes pulse interval pulse shot number, output voltage. To achieve this system, a pulsed power system exists including software running on PC, universal serial bus （UgB~ for connection, and FPGA controller. Using the software for complex control of pulsed power will enable expansion into various fields with easy operation.

A Method to Obtain Complex Transfer Functions of Four Order DC-DC Converters

Two TFs （transfer functions） are needed to analyze switching DC-DC converters in control-voltage mode： the duty-cycle to output-voltage （control to output） and the input-voltage to output-voltage （line to output）. To obtain these TFs a small-signal analysis is required. The CCM （continuous conduction mode） and the DCM （discontinuous conduction mode） analysis are different. When a circuit includes the loss resistances of the components, the number of parameters increases considerably, making manual nodal-loop circuit analysis techniques impractical to obtain the TFs. Moreover, these circuits are bilinear （non-linear） and it is necessary to linearize the equations at a DC operating-point （approximate linearization）. Vorp6rian describes a PWM （pulse-width-modulated） switch model that includes all non-linear parts of the DC-DC switching converters. This model can be linearized and replaced on the switching converter schematic leading to a linear circuit. At this point it is possible to use symbolic analysis programs to obtain these TFs or to simply apply numerical values for either the Bode diagrams or the calculation of poles and zeros. Here we describe an application of Ekrem Cangeici＇s method on X DC-DC converter to obtain control to output and line to output TFs in CCM and DCM including loss resistances. The method presented in this paper is optimized to use in the online publishing platform OctaveRS. Also the control to output TF for PCC （peak current controlled） in CCM is obtained.

Modeling the open circuit output voltage of piezoelectric nanogenerator

Piezoelectric nanogenerators(NGs)have been developed for converting mechanical energy into electric energy using ZnO,GaN,ZnSnO3,and PZT nanowires.Due to the unique polarity and non-central symmetry of the wurtzite structure,a composite made of using the conical shaped nanowires are used as a simple,cost-effective,and scalable nanogenerator.Based on the finite element methods,the output voltage of the nanogenerator is modeled numerically.The key factors:the spatial location of nanowires,length and dip angle of nanowires,thickness of NG devices,and the physical properties of the polymer inside NGs,which affect the output voltage are studied.The results provide guidance for optimization the output of piezoelectric nanogenerators.

Monolithic piezoceramic actuators with a twist

Designing artificial structures with heterogeneous elements and manipulating their interface coupling ways usually bring in synthetic neo-nature to functional devices.For piezoceramic devices,the deformation response refers to a variety of extensional,contractional,or shear modes of crystals,and also relies on boundary conditions from morphology design.However,to pursue fundamental torsion actuation in an integrated piezoceramic component is still a long-term tough task due to nil twist mode limited by microscopic crystal mirror symmetry.Herein,we demonstrate a design of cofired monolithic actuators to originally overcome this obstacle.The prototype device is composed of two sets of stacked actuation subunits that work on artificially reverse face shear modes,and their chiral stiffness couplings will synergistically contribute to synthetic twist outputs at a broad bandwidth.Finite element simulation reveals twist displacements are highly tunable by manipulating the geometrical dimensions.Transverse deflection measurements manifest the stable and sizeable linear actuation response to applied electric fields(around 3.7μm under 40 V at 1 Hz).Importantly,the design actually introduces a more general route to enable arbitrary modes and actuation states in integrated piezoceramic components.

A Novel Readout System for Wireless Passive Pressure Sensors

This paper presents a novel readout system for wireless passive pressure sensors based on the inductively coupled inductor and cavity （LC） resonant circuits. The proposed system consists of a reader antenna inductively coupled to the sensor circuit, a readout circuit, and a personal computer （PC） post processing unit. The readout circuit generates a voltage signal representing the sensor＇s capacitance. The frequency of the reader antenna driving signal is a constant, which is equal to the sensor＇s resonant frequency at zero pressure. Based on mechanical and electrical modeling, the pressure sensor design based on the high temperature co-fired ceramic （HTCC） technology is conducted and discussed. The functionality and accuracy of the readout system are tested with a voltage-capacitance measurement system and demonstrated in a realistic pressure measurement environment, so that the overall performance and the feasibility of the readout system are proved.
