Auxiliary Circuit

In modern aircraft designs, following the More Electrical Aircraft (MEA) philosophy, there is a growing need for new high-power converters. In this context, innovative solutions to provide high efficiency and power density are required. This paper proposes an unregulated LLC full-bridge operating at resonant frequency to obtain a constant gain at all loads. The first harmonic approximation (FHA) model is not accurate enough to estimate the voltage gain in converters with high parasitic resistance. A modified FHA model is proposed for voltage gain analysis, and time-based models are used to calculate the instantaneous current required for the ZVS transition analysis. A method using charge instead of current is proposed and used for this ZVS analysis. Using this method, an auxiliary circuit is proposed to achieve complete ZVS within the whole load range, avoiding a gapped transformer design and increasing the efficiency and power density. A 28 Vdc output voltage prototype, with 10 kW peak output power, has been developed to validate the theoretical analysis and the proposed auxiliary circuit. The maximum efficiency (96.3%) is achieved at the nominal power of 5 kW.

Lattice dynamics and stability of fcc crystal of Ni under isotropic (hydrostatic) tensile loading are studied from first principles using supercell method and a harmonic approximation. According to the results, strength of the crystal is determined by occurrence of an instability related to soft phonons with finite wave vector. On the other hand, the critical strains and stresses associated with such instabilities are only slightly lower than those related to the volumetric instability.

Mg Substitution

The properties of hydroxyapatite can be improved by substitution of biologically relevant ions, such as magnesium (Mg) and strontium (Sr), into its structure. Previous work in the literature has not reached agreement as to site preferences in these substitutions, and there are suggestions that these may change with differing levels of substitution. The current work adopted a quantum mechanical approach based on density functional theory using the CRYSTAL09 code to investigate the structural changes relating to, and site preferences of, magnesium and strontium substitution (to 10 mol%) in hydroxyapatites and also to predict the corresponding vibrational spectra in the harmonic approximation. The structures underwent full geometrical optimisation within the P63 space group, indicating an energetic site preference for the Ca (2) site in the case of Mg substitution, and the Ca (1) site in the case of Sr. Shrinkage of the unit cell was observed in the case of Mg substitution, and expansion in the case of Sr substitution, in agreement with the corresponding ionic radii. Thermodynamic properties of the structures obtained from the harmonic vibrational frequency calculations confirmed that the structures were minima on the potential energy surface. Isotopic substitutions indicated that the main contribution of Sr and Mg to vibrational modes is at frequencies < 400 cm-1.
