The gyroscopic power generator produces a high-speed rotation of magnets from low-frequency vibrations and supplies electric power to information and communication devices that use human vibrations in daily life. In this paper, in order to increase the stability and the output power of the generator, a simple equation that indicates the steady state approximate solution of the phase difference is derived. From the derived solution, a control method for the steady state is verified by the simulations. In order to maintain the stability and high power generation for variable input vibrations, the impedance control method using the phase difference is developed and verified experimentally.

This paper investigates an active anti-vibration system, and the isolation of low-frequency vibration is studied. A model reference control of the anti-vibration system with a sky-hook damper and impedance control is analyzed. An illustrated example of a single-degree-of-freedom anti-vibration system driven by a tubular linear servomotor is given to verify the performance of the proposed control design. Experimental results are given to show that the peak resonance value of 0dB within a frequency of 10Hz can be achieved successively.

The change in electrode impedance of semiconductor equipment due to repetitive processes is a major issue that creates process drift. In the current plasma etch chamber with a dual-frequency power system, the high-powered radio frequency (RF) source contributes to the enhancement of the plasma density, and the low-frequency bias power at the bottom electrode is adopted to enhance the injected ion energy in the plasma. The impedance control of the top electrode in dual-frequency capacity coupled plasma limits the impedance matching capability of the RF matching system because it only considers the high-frequency RF source. To control the precise impedance in dual-frequency semiconductor equipment, independent impedance control is required for each frequency. In this study, the impedance corresponding to a specific frequency was independently controlled using L (inductor) and C (capacitor). A 60 MHz stop filter and VVC were used to control 2 MHz impedance at a specific point, and a 2 MHz stop filter and VVC were used to control 60 MHz impedance. In the case of 2 MHz impedance control, the 2 MHz impedance changed from 10.9−j893 to 0.3−j62 and the 60 MHz impedance did not change. When controlling the 60 MHz impedance, the 60 MHz impedance changed from 0.33 + j26.53 to 0.2 + j190 and the 2 MHz impedance did not change. The designed LC circuits cover the impedance of 60 and 2 MHz separately and are verified by the change in the capacitance of the vacuum variable capacitors implemented in the RF impedance matching system.

Purpose This paper aims to present an impedance control method with mixed H2/H∞ synthesis and relaxed passivity for a cable-driven series elastic actuator to be applied for physical human–robot interaction. Design/methodology/approach To shape the system’s impedance to match a desired dynamic model, the impedance control problem was reformulated into an impedance matching structure. The desired competing performance requirements as well as constraints from the physical system can be characterized with weighting functions for respective signals. Considering the frequency properties of human movements, the passivity constraint for stable human–robot interaction, which is required on the entire frequency spectrum and may bring conservative solutions, has been relaxed in such a way that it only restrains the low frequency band. Thus, impedance control became a mixed H2/H∞ synthesis problem, and a dynamic output feedback controller can be obtained. Findings The proposed impedance control strategy has been tested for various desired impedance with both simulation and experiments on the cable-driven series elastic actuator platform. The actual interaction torque tracked well the desired torque within the desired norm bounds, and the control input was regulated below the motor velocity limit. The closed loop system can guarantee relaxed passivity at low frequency. Both simulation and experimental results have validated the feasibility and efficacy of the proposed method. Originality/value This impedance control strategy with mixed H2/H∞ synthesis and relaxed passivity provides a novel, effective and less conservative method for physical human–robot interaction control.

The lateral line organs of the sea eel consist of canal and pit organs which are different in function. The former is a low frequency vibration detector whereas the latter functions as an ion receptor as well as a mechano receptor.The fine structure of the sensory epithelia of both organs were studied by means of ordinary transmission electron microscope, high voltage electron microscope and of surface scanning electron microscope.The sensory cells of the canal organ are polarized in front-caudal direction and those of the pit organ are polarized in dorso-ventral direction. The sensory epithelia of both organs have thinner surface coats compared to the surrounding ordinary epithelial cells, which have very thick fuzzy coatings on the apical surface.

A human breast carcinoma cell line (BOT-2) was derived from an infiltrating duct carcinoma (1). These cells were shown to have antigens that selectively bound antibodies from breast cancer patient sera (2). Furthermore, these tumor specific antigens could be removed from the living cells by low frequency sonication and have been partially characterized (3). These proteins have been shown to be around 100,000 MW and contain approximately 6% hexose and hexosamines. However, only the hexosamines appear to be available for lectin binding. This study was designed to use Concanavalin A (Con A) and Ricinus Communis (Ricin) agglutinin for the topagraphical localization of D-mannopyranosyl or glucopyranosyl and D-galactopyranosyl or DN- acetyl glactopyranosyl configurations on BOT-2 cell surfaces.
