Novel Motor-Kinetic-Energy-Based Power Pulsation Buffer Concept for Single-Phase-Input Electrolytic-Capacitor-Less Motor-Integrated Inverter System

The motor integration of singe-phase-supplied Variable-Speed Drives (VSDs) is prevented by the significant volume, short lifetime, and operating temperature limit of the electrolytic capacitors required to buffer the pulsating power grid. The DC-link energy storage requirement is eliminated by using the kinetic energy of the motor as a buffer. The proposed concept is called the Motor-Integrated Power Pulsation Buffer (MPPB), and a control technique and structure are detailed that meet the requirements for nominal and faulted operation with a simple reconfiguration of existing controller blocks. A 7.5 KW, motor-integrated hardware demonstrator validated the proposed MPPB concept and loss models for a scroll compressor drive used in auxiliary railway applications. The MPPB drive with a front-end CISPR 11/Class A EMI filter, PFC rectifier stage, and output-side inverter stage achieved a power density of 0.91 KW L−1 (15 W in−3). The grid-to-motor-shaft efficiency exceeded 90% for all loads over 5 kW or 66% of nominal load, with a worst-case loss penalty over a conventional system of only 17%.

Around 35% of the total utilization of coconuts at this time is still not fully utilized. Thermoelectric is a technology that converts heat energy directly into electrical energy or converts electrical energy into heating and cooling energy. Data retrieval using two multimeters and an electric thermometer, data collection was carried out for 2 minutes. From the test results, this tool can produce an average voltage of 10.05 Volt for 200gram coconut shells, an average current of 0.99 Ampere and an average power of 13.84 Watts and can fully charge the battery up to 3 hours 33 minutes, while for 300 grams produces an average voltage of 10.59 Volts for 300gram coconut shells, an average current of 0.995 Ampere and an average power of 13.56 Watts and the battery can be fully charged in about 3 hours 36 minutes, while a coconut shell weighing 400 grams can produces an average voltage of 10.94 Volts, an average current of 1 Ampere and an average power of 13.70 Watts and the battery can be fully charged in about 3 hours 30 minutes. The more coconut shells used for combustion, the hotter the temperature and the faster the voltage and current are obtained, but with a note that the maximum temperature limit of the thermoelectric is T not more than 200o C.

Dynamics in direct two-photon transition by frequency combs

Based on the proposed theoretical model of a three-level system, the optical Bloch equations including the direct two-photon transition (DTPT) process using the optical frequency comb (OFC) were derived and the population distribution of particles in the upper states varying with the velocity of the atoms was obtained. Comparing to the resonance two-photon transition process, that population was increased by a factor of 1.4 without the Doppler shift, which is consistent with our previous experimental results. Simultaneously, the relationship between momentum transfers, and atomic velocity and pulse number were analyzed. When applied to a multi-level system it was found the population of particles in the excited states increased by a few percentages. The novel approach of DTPT using OFC improved the utilization of comb teeth and atoms, increased the momentum transfer path, reduced the reachable Doppler temperature limit, and encouraged us to use OFC to cool multiple elements simultaneously through the DTPT process. By analyzing the Doppler temperature of 133Cs and 87Rb in one dimension, it was found that this process can lower a temperature below 100 mK and generate dipolar molecules 133Cs87Rb via photoassociation, which provides us a new tool to create dipolar molecules and to investigate their complex rovibrational spectra in ultra-cold chemistry.

Ephemeral islands, plunging quantum extremal surfaces and BCFT channels

We consider entanglement entropies of finite spatial intervals in Minkowski radiation baths coupled to the eternal black hole in JT gravity, and the related problem involving free fermion BCFT in the thermofield double state. We show that the non-monotonic entropy evolution in the black hole problem precisely matches that of the free fermion theory in a high temperature limit, and the results have the form expected for CFTs with quasiparticle description. Both exhibit rich behaviour that involves at intermediate times, an entropy saddle with an island in the former case, and in the latter a special class of disconnected OPE channels. The quantum extremal surfaces start inside the horizon, but can emerge from and plunge back inside as time evolves, accompanied by a characteristic dip in the entropy also seen in the free fermion BCFT. Finally an entropy equilibrium is reached with a no-island saddle.

Motion-induced energy shifts of a multilevel atom in a black-body radiation field

We investigate the influence of atomic uniform motion on radiative energy shifts of a multilevel atom when it interacts with black-body radiation. Our analysis reveals that the atomic energy shifts depend crucially on three factors: the temperature of black-body thermal radiation, atomic velocity, and atomic polarizability. In the low-temperature limit, the presence of atomic uniform motion always enhances the effect of the thermal field on the atomic energy shifts. However, in the high-temperature limit, the atomic uniform motion enhances the effect of the thermal field for an atom polarizable perpendicular to the atomic velocity but weakens it for an atom polarizable parallel to the atomic velocity. Our work indicates that the physical properties of atom–field coupling systems can in principle be regulated and controlled by the combined action of the thermal field and the atomic uniform motion.

Higgs mode in (2 + 1)-dimensional O(2) model

In this paper, we investigate the spectral functions of the Higgs mode in [Formula: see text] model, which can be experimentally realized in a two-dimensional Bose gas. Zero temperature limit is considered. Our calculation fully includes the 2-loop contributions. Peaks show up in the spectral functions of both the longitudinal and the scalar susceptibilities. Thus, this model cannot explain the disappearance of the response at the weak interaction limit. Neither it can explain the similarity between the longitudinal and the scalar susceptibilities in the visibility of the Higgs mode. A possible lower peak at about [Formula: see text] is also noted.

Deformation of Poly-l-lactid acid (PLLA) under Uniaxial Tension and Plane-Strain Compression

The ability of PLLA, either amorphous or semicrystalline, to plastic deformation to large strain was investigated in a wide temperature range (Td = 70–140 °C). Active deformation mechanisms have been identified and compared for two different deformation modes—uniaxial drawing and plane-strain compression. The initially amorphous PLLA was capable of significant deformation in both tension and plane-strain compression. In contrast, the samples of crystallized PLLA were found brittle in tensile, whereas they proved to be ductile and capable of high-strain deformation when deformed in plane-strain compression. The main deformation mechanism identified in amorphous PLLA was the orientation of chains due to plastic flow, followed by strain-induced crystallization occurring at the true strain above e = 0.5. The oriented chains in amorphous phase were then transformed into oriented mesophase and/or oriented crystals. An upper temperature limit for mesophase formation was found below Td = 90 °C. The amount of mesophase formed in this process did not exceed 5 wt.%. An additional mesophase fraction was generated at high strains from crystals damaged by severe deformation. After the formation of the crystalline phase, further deformation followed the mechanisms characteristic for the semicrystalline polymer. Interlamellar slip supported by crystallographic chain slip has been identified as the major deformation mechanism in semicrystalline PLLA. It was found that the contribution of crystallographic slip increased notably with the increase in the deformation temperature. The most probable active crystallographic slip systems were (010)[001], (100)[001] or (110)[001] slip systems operating along the chain direction. At high temperatures (Td = 115–140 °C), the α→β crystal transformation was additionally observed, leading to the formation of a small fraction of β crystals.

Effective field theory of the Higgs mode in a two-dimensional dilute Bose gas

In this paper, we investigate the spectral function of the Higgs mode in a two-dimensional Bose gas by using the effective field theory in the zero-temperature limit. Our approach explains the experimental feature that the peak of the spectral function is a soft continuum rather than a sharp peak, broadens and vanishes in the superfluid phase, which cannot be explained in terms of the [Formula: see text] model. We also find that the scalar susceptibility is the same as the longitudinal susceptibility.
