This paper focuses on the steady-behavior of a differential boost inverter used for generating a sinewave AC voltage in rural areas. The analysis of its dynamics will be performed using an accurate approach based on discrete time models and Floquet theory and adopting a quasi-static approximation. In particular, the undesired subharmonic oscillation exhibited by the inverter will be analyzed and its boundary in the parameter space will be predicted and delimited. Combining analytical expressions and computational procedures to determine the quasi-static duty cycle, subharmonic oscillation is accurately predicted. It is found that subharmonic oscillation takes place at critical values of the sinewave voltage reference cycle, which can cause distortion to the input current and degrade the harmonic content of the output voltage. The results provide useful information for the design of the boost inverter to avoid distortion caused by subharmonic oscillation. Namely, the minimum value of the compensation slope and the maximum proportional gain of the AC output voltage controller guaranteeing a pure sinewave voltage and clean inductor current during the entire AC cycle will be determined. Numerical simulations performed on the switched model implemented using PSIM© software confirm the theoretical predictions.

The vast majority of the modernized implantable devices and Bio-sensors are set inside a patient’s body. To overcome this constraint, in this paper we have designed a rechargeable battery with wireless power transfer technique. The transdermal power transfer for the Pacemaker which is placed inside the heart should be possible by the concept of mutual inductance. The receiver loop ought to be situated inside the body and the transmitter curl ought to be situated outside of the body. The voltage controller will give or manage the necessary yield (output) voltage. The experiments were conducted on wireless charging through pork tissues reveal that from a 3.919-mw power source, 3.072-mw power can be received at 300kHz, reaching a high wireless power transfer efficiency of 78.4%, showing that the charging is very fast. We have also connected a Bluetooth Module to the Atmega328 microcontroller. This Bluetooth technology is used in the Android mobile application to notice the charging levels of the pacemaker. This Inductive power transfer technique takes out the danger of contamination which is brought about by the medical procedure.

The equation of motion of a small spherical rigid particle in a turbulent flow field, including the Stokes drag, the Basset force, and the virtual mass effects, is considered. For an isotropic field, the lift force and the velocity gradient effects are neglected. Using the spectral method, responses of the resulting constant coefficient stochastic integrao-differential equation are studied. Analytical expressions relating the Lagrangian energy spectra of particle velocity to that of the fluid are developed and the results are used to evaluate various response statistics. Variations of the mean-square particle velocity and particle diffusivity with size, density ratio and response time are studied. The theoretical predictions are compared with the digital simulation results and the available data and good agreement is observed.

This work demonstrates that a stable voltage reference with temperature, in the 25°C-300°C range is possible using SiC bipolar diodes. In a previous work, we have been demonstrated both theoretical and experimentally, the feasibility of SiC bandgap voltage reference using SiC Schottky diodes [1]. The present work completes the investigation on SiC bandgap reference by the using of SiC bipolar diodes. Simulated and experimental results for two different SiC devices: Schottky and bipolar diodes showed that the principles that govern the bandgap voltage references for Si are also valid for the SiC. A comparison between the output voltage levels of the two types of bandgap reference is also presented.

The existence of a coherent film of lubricant between highly loaded machine elements has been recognized for many years. Over this period of time measurements of film thickness have gone hand in hand with theoretical analyses in the field now known as elastohydrodynamic lubrication. The experimental techniques of capacitance, electrical resistance and X-ray measurement have been supplemented by the use of optical interferometry while the analytical expressions obtained with the use of elegant simplifications have been superseded by those developed from extensive and comprehensive computational procedures. These developments in experimental techniques have yielded a substantial number of measurements of both minimum and central film thickness. Likewise, the advent of the digital computer has allowed the derivation of a large number of solutions to the problem of elastohydrodynamic lubrication of concentrated contacts. All these results, covering a wide range of geometrical conditions, are to be found in the literature, yet little attempt appears to have been made to assemble a representative set of experimental data to permit a detailed evaluation of the theoretical formulae for elliptical contacts. The second part of this paper therefore considers the correlation between a number of experimental studies covering a wide range of operating conditions and geometries, and the predictions of recent elastohydrodynamic theory. Some of the important aspects of each set of experimental results are then considered and examples are provided which illustrate the following points: 1. Good estimates of lubricant film thickness may be obtained from the theoretical expressions recently derived, even when the dimensionless parameters involved are outside the ranges considered in the derivation of the formulae. 2. The discrepancies which exist between theoretical predictions and some of the measured film thicknesses are nevertheless quite large, even when the dimensionless parameters are within their usual limits. On the whole there is good agreement between experiment and theory, while the general trend of the results indicates that theoretical predictions may underestimate the minimum film thickness by about 10 per cent and the central film thickness by about 25 per cent. This measure of agreement is quite remarkable when the extreme difficulty of interpreting the magnitudes of effective and very thin mean film thicknesses between machined components in various forms of experimental equipment is considered.
