Performance evaluation and stability analysis of super-junction IGBTs in high-temperature environments

Abstract This paper aims to evaluate and analyze the performance and stability of super-junction IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors) in high-temperature environments. The study begins with an overview of the significance of IGBTs in the field of power electronics. It provides a comprehensive discussion of the advantages of super-junction technology and the challenges posed by high temperatures on the performance of IGBTs. Through a series of experiments on various commercial super-junction IGBT models, this research thoroughly assesses the devices’ saturated current, threshold voltage, leakage current, switching time, and switching losses at different temperature points (25°C, 75°C, 125°C, and 175°C). The experimental results demonstrate a significant impact of high temperatures on the performance of IGBTs, particularly in terms of changes in saturated current and threshold voltage. Additionally, the study predicts the lifespan of super-junction IGBTs through High-Temperature Operating Life (HTOL) testing and analyzes the failure modes in high-temperature environments. The results indicate that the expected lifespan of the devices significantly decreases with increasing temperature, with primary failure modes including degradation of the gate oxide layer, an increase in interface traps, and disruption in conductive pathways. The paper also compares experimental results with existing literature, emphasizing the potential and importance of optimized design for super-junction IGBTs in high-temperature environments. The study suggests that improvements in materials, structural design, manufacturing processes, and innovative cooling technologies can further enhance the performance and stability of IGBTs in high-temperature applications. Finally, this research provides new insights into the development of super-junction IGBTs in high-temperature power applications and offers valuable references for professionals in related fields.

Optimization of Multibeam Survey Measurement Based on Greedy Algorithm

The effectiveness of multibeam bathymetric technology is widely recognized in marine depth measurements, especially in areas with complex and variable seafloor topography. This study aims to design a multibeam bathymetric survey plan for a specific maritime region, with the objectives of minimizing the total survey line length, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the target area, controlling the overlap between adjacent survey lines, and fully considering variations in seafloor topography. An optimization model was developed to determine the optimal route for comprehensive seafloor depth measurements within the specified maritime area.The model initially considers the influence of seafloor slope, establishing a single optimization objective model with the goal of minimizing the total survey line length. The decision variables primarily include the spacing between adjacent survey lines. The objective function of the model aims to reduce the number of survey lines, thereby achieving the minimization of the total survey line length. Constraints of the model encompass limitations on coverage range, calculations of coverage width, and relationships between survey lines. The model is solved using a greedy algorithm-based optimization approach, iteratively updating the positions of survey lines while determining the spacing based on the relationship between depth and coverage width. Ultimately, a layout of survey lines with the shortest total length, totaling 64 nautical miles with a configuration of 32 survey lines, is obtained for the assumed maritime area. Multibeam bathymetric technology holds broad prospects in the field of marine measurements, particularly in areas characterized by complex and variable seafloor topography. This study, by designing a multibeam bathymetric survey plan for a specific maritime region, not only contributes to improving measurement efficiency and accuracy but also reduces measurement costs and resource consumption. The outcomes of this research have significant practical implications for marine resource development, seafloor engineering construction, environmental protection, providing professionals in related fields with an effective measurement method and optimization strategy.

Measures to improve ship inspection system in Korea by amending administrative crime provisions of the Ship Safety Act

ABSTRACT Following the tragic sinking of the Sewol Ferry, there was a significant increase in the prosecution of criminal cases involving ship surveyors and their professional responsibilities. In 2015, the Ship Safety Act of Korea introduced new Paragraphs 13-2, 13-4, and 13-5 in Article 83. These amendments aimed to penalize individuals who engage in fraudulent or improper practices during surveys. It classified such actions as a serious offense. Accordingly, the elements of the crime of interference with business in criminal law have become less complex and easier to prove. Given that ship surveyors were already legally liable for obstructing business activities under the Criminal Act before the implementation of this provision, it is necessary to assess whether the existing legislation allows for disproportionate penalties. This study aimed to assess the validity of legislative principles, including the constitutional proportionality principle, the violation of legalism in criminal law, the limitations of dangerous criminal law, and the issue of overcriminalization. We conducted a comparative review of laws and assessed their potential impact on the industry through an online questionnaire distributed to ship surveyors and professionals in related fields. As a result, we proposed amending the related penalty provisions of the Act.

As a result of its use in the manufacturing and construction industries, research on the flow of nanofluid is rather well-known among academics and professionals in related fields. It is helpful for electrical equipment to utilize it for cooling reasons, which has shown promising results in terms of reducing energy use. As a result, the primary objective of this research is to inspect the impacts that radiation has on the mixed convection of Walters'-B hybridity nanofluid flow of stagnant point in a horizontal circular cylinder under the circumstances of a constant heat flux. It is considered a conventional fluid despite the presence of copper (Cu) and alumina (Al2O3) nanoparticles in the water (H2O) hybridity nanofluid. To make the solution to the resulting controlling system of equations more straightforward, the numerical approach of a neural network with a back-propagation algorithm (NN-BPA) is used. It follows by clarifying how various physical characteristics, such as blended convection, thermal radiation, and stagnant movement, affect temperature, skin friction, thermal transfer, velocity, and graphical profiles of those variables. The LMNN-BPA has the quickest processing algorithm and performs well in general, corresponding to the thorough analysis. Additionally, the mixed convective and viscoelastic properties exhibit both rising and dropping developments regarding skin friction and heat transmission.

The Ukrainian market of graphic design, which belongs to the sphere of creative industries, demonstrates high rates of development. The derivative nature of commercial demand for graphic design services, including professional design services, is determined by the dominance of video content in the network, the introduction of innovative technologies through digitalization of virtual space in the formation of social media feeds, loyal attitude of the target audience to integrate advertising, personalized and relevant offer active development of stock image, video and music platforms. The total amount of taxes paid by the design industry during 2016-2018 amounted to UAH 259 million. In 2019-2020, the amount of taxes paid by this sector will increase one and a half to two times a year. The individualization of advertising appeals has led to the need for in-depth study of the content and characteristics of attributes and values of goods that influence consumer purchasing decisions by marketers, designers and other professionals in related fields. A separate area of research is to study the impact of the psychology of design decisions on increasing the loyalty of end users and increase sales of companies in the sector. The application of a customer-oriented approach in the Ukrainian graphic design sector actualizes the identification of the tasks facing design from the standpoint of marketing approach. The aim of the study is to present the results of the study on the impact of psychological aspects of design decisions on the effectiveness of customer companies through such marketing tools as increasing brand awareness, increasing loyalty of end users, deepening interaction with content, feedback and more. Graphic design is an integral part of industrial and trade policy, as well as one of the marketing tools used in the process of product creation and customer service, pricing, advertising, branding, merchandising and more. The main tasks of design stem from the mastery of basic psychological principles in creating the concept of design (von Restorf effect, Gestalt principles, visceral reaction, color psychology, psychology of form, double coding theory, cognitive load theory). The expansion of marketing areas of design in the practice of service providers has led in the largest cities of Ukraine to the formation of sustainable design communities, the beginning of professional design activities, the introduction of niche publications, public procurement and more. As a result, there is an increase in the capacity of the design market – the total cost of procurement of design services for the period 2016 – by August 2019 increased to UAH 62 million. It has been established that the biggest competitors in the market of graphic design of Ukraine are now the design agency «MUZIKA.UA», graphic design studio SHANKA; Bypaul design studio; BRANDME; Wezom; Marat and Abordazh. On the example of projects of the agency «MUZIKA.UA», a leader in the design market, analyzed the effectiveness of design decisions in terms of: brand awareness, by measuring the average website traffic, levels of interaction with content, sales growth and market share due to design solutions per month. Based on the study of the economic situation in the design market of Ukraine, the practical involvement in the market of graphic design of one of the authors allowed to identify the main problems of market development. By identifying the main problems of the development of the graphic design market, directions for solving problems have been formed and proposed for practical use. The intensification of intra-industry competition requires a study of the levels of concentration in the target markets of graphic design, taking into account the risks of marketing and financial activities, which should be the subject of a separate study.

Preference and perception of low-sodium burger.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVESVarious sodium reduction policies have been implemented. However, there are limitations in the aspect of actual field applicability and efficiency. For effective sodium reduction, cooperation with the field is required and consumer preference must be considered. Thus, this study aimed to develop a low-sodium burger considering field applicability and consumer preference.MATERIALS/METHODSFocus group interviews and in-depth interviews on the sodium reduction measures were conducted with nine professionals in related fields to discuss practical methods for sodium reduction from September 7 to 21, 2018. By reflecting the interview results, a burger using a low-sodium sauce was developed, and preference analysis for sodium in the burger sauces and finished products was performed. The consumer preference for low-sodium burgers was evaluated on 51 college students on November 12, 2018.RESULTSThe results of the professional interview showed that it is desirable to practice sodium reduction gradually, and by reflecting this, the burger sauce was prepared by adjusting the ratio of refined salt to 15%, 30%, and 50%. The sodium content of the burger using low-sodium sauce was 399 mg/100 g in the control group, 362 mg/100 g in the H1 group, and 351.5 mg/100 g in the H2 group, showing a 9.3–11.9% decrease in sodium in the H1 and H2 groups. The preference evaluation on the low-sodium burgers showed a higher preference for burgers with 9.3–11.9% sodium reduction, which did not affect the overall taste.CONCLUSIONSThis study examined the potential for sodium reduction in the franchise foodservice industry. An approximate 10% sodium reduction resulted in an increase in consumer preference without affecting the strength of the taste. Thus, if applied gradually, sodium reduction at practical levels could increase the consumer preference without changing the taste or quality and could be applied in the franchise foodservice industry.

ABSTRACTBackgroundImproved methods of communication are needed among professionals in related fields to address the increasing complexity of clinical situations and various levels of functioning experienced by older adults who live in nursing homes.PurposeThe purpose of this study was to explore function-focused clinical communication among nurses and providers based on the Situation, Background, Assessment, Recommendation (SBAR) approach toward interdisciplinary collaboration to maintain function among nursing home residents and to identify the characteristics of SBAR flows in nursing homes.MethodsDetailed interviews with 28 interdisciplinary professionals working in four nursing homes were conducted. Directed qualitative content analysis was used to identify the internal attributes of SBAR-based communication. Case analysis was conducted to identify SBAR flows.ResultsFour themes emerged as key factors for function-focused interdisciplinary staff communication in nursing homes. Effective nursing care to maintain function among nursing home residents requires accurate awareness of abnormal circumstances. Knowledge of assessment and resident background are needed to address situations requiring intervention and identify the problems underlying a resident's current state. The optimal therapeutic environment is created by sharing roles and tasks among practitioners through referrals.Twelve generalized situations requiring function-focused communication (i.e., dislocation of body line because of joint contracture, change in walking, difficulty of moving because of pain, difficulty in eating, fever, change in sleep pattern, change in excretion pattern, change in weight, change in condition, change in problematic behavior, decrease in cognitive function, and change in relationships) and the related nurse-centered SBAR pathways were identified.Conclusions/Implications for PracticeThese results represent a first prototype for developing practical communication guidelines for nursing-home-specific function-focused care and provide new insights into the interdisciplinary approach.

Problem-based Learning in Computer-assisted Translation Pedagogy

This article discusses problem-based learning (PBL) and its potential application to computer-assisted translation (CAT) pedagogy. Problem-based learning is situated in the CAT classroom as a final course component in which students challenge their previously-acquired knowledge and skill sets to solve unique, ill-defined problems that mirror those encountered in the language industry. This constructivist approach to education is designed to empower students to be self-directed, collaborative learners and to foster critical thinking and reflection. Moreover, problem-based learning is a means to encourage professional behavior and to develop skills beyond the mere use of translation technologies. This article explores the potential advantages and disadvantages of this educational approach as documented in related professional fields. In addition, the article addresses the ways in which problems are designed and implemented in the translation classroom, with a discussion of how they can and should be aligned with course learning objectives. The article concludes with a discussion of ways students’ work ought to be assessed to enhance gains often seen in PBL environments.

Disambiguating the use of common terms across related medical fields: the problem of intervention

Medical terminology can cause problems of communication both between professionals in related fields and between medical professionals and their patients. Generic medical terms labelled as ‘semi-technical’, such as treatment, are often polysemous and, therefore, present potential difficulties that need to be addressed by medical dictionaries and term banks. This paper will look at the problems caused by the term intervention as related to the treatment of children with hearing loss. The broad application of the term, in both a clinical/medical context and a general one, opens up the possibility of misunderstanding for professionals and patients alike. The efficacy of using corpora as a means of assessing the importance of a particular term is widely acknowledged. In addition, researchers such as (L’Homme, A Lexico-semantic Approach to the Structuring of Terminology. CompuTerm 2004—3rd International Workshop on Computational Terminology, 2004) have emphasised the importance of corpus data in establishing the network of associations that common terms may have in specialised fields. This study will first identify the prevalence of the specialist uses of intervention in general corpora, and then present the findings from a c.260,000-word corpus composed of academic papers published between 2000 and 2014 on the topic of intervention for children with hearing loss. It will demonstrate the centrality of the term to this field of medical discourse, present the range of meanings and collocations associated with it, and propose lexicographical approaches to clarifying the uses of this and similar semi-technical terms.

APPRAISING ANIMATION AS AN INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGY FOR ENHANCING QUALITY EDUCATION IN BIOLOGY

This paper is hinged on the conviction that the quality of a society depends on the quality of its citizens and the quality of the citizens depends on the quality of their education. Hence, quality education is imperative for a society to cope and compete favorably and effectively in today’s fast changing world. Biology is a science subject that enables learners to acquire the knowledge and abilities needed for effective living in the modern age of science and technology. It is also a major requirement for higher learning in a number of science related professional fields such as medicine, agriculture, pharmacy etc. The goal of education cannot be achieved by doing the same thing the same way always. There is need for modification to remain relevant at all times. The desire for improvement in the quality of knowledge calls for changes in the pattern of interaction between the teachers and learners through innovation so that the product of school system can compete effectively within and in the global world. The innovation confers relevance and importance to the knowledge acquired in schools for quality and productivity. The process of innovation involves transforming the methods, techniques and approaches of making learning functional, relevant and qualitative. This paper seeks to appraise the use of animation in the teaching and learning of biological concepts as a means of producing quality and proactive learners that are relevant in the global world. The paper attempted to define animation as teaching tool that combine still and motion pictures with Sound and text to ensure effective instructional delivery. The place of animation in teaching particularly biology for productive education, features, benefits and limitation of animation in teaching and learning were equally highlighted. Various aspects of animation such as forms and classification were mentioned and suggestions on the use of animation such as teacher should be encouraged to use animation in teaching biology themes that are abstract in nature for better understanding and retention and others were equally discussed.
