A two-stage power factor correction converter typically employs a cascade configuration of a pre-regulator boost power factor correction converter with average current mode control to achieve a near unity power factor and a tightly regulated post-regulator DC-DC Buck converter with voltage feedback control to regulate the output voltage. Based on the assumption that the tightly regulated postregulator DC-DC Buck converter is represented as a constant power sink and some other assumptions, the simplified model of the two-stage power factor correction converter is derived and its approximate periodic solution is calculated by the method of IHB. And then, the stability of the system is investigated by using Floquet theory and the stable boundaries are presented on the selected parameter spaces. Finally, some experimental results are given to confirm the effectiveness of the theoretical analysis.展开更多

Methods Individuals (n=1099) were recruited from general population of Kezuohouqi Banner in Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region. Results The association was found between ACE genotype DD plus ID and EH, with an interaction between ACE genotype DD plus ID and cigarette smoking in an additive model. Cigarette smoking index and ACE gene showed a low exposure-gene (LEG) effect on EH, with interaction indices from 7.10 to 1.16. Interaction between ACE genotype DD plus ID and alcohol drinking on EH appeared an additive model. Alcohol drinking index and ACE gene showed a low exposure-gene (LEG) effect on EH, with interaction indices from 1.66 to 1.09. BMI and ACE gene showed a low exposure-gene (LEG) effect on EH, with interaction indices from 6.15 to 2.49. Interactions between ACE genotype and WHR on EH showed a multiplicative model. In a short, there was an interaction between ACE gene and cigarette smoking, alcohol drinking and BMI on EH, especially in a low dose-exposure effect Conclusion It is important for individuals who carry ACE D allele gene to prevent EH, and furthermore, to prevent and control coronary heart disease, in a view of population-based prevention.展开更多

And speed control of these motors is very easy due to power electronic AC-DC converters. These power electronic converters are with prominent low power factor and higher Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). These converters operate only for short time resulting non-sinusoidal waveform. This problem of harmonic distortion can be mitigated by reshaping the non-sinusoidal waveform to pure sine wave. Different wave shaping techniques have been developed by using different filters among which one is tuned passive filter. This paper proposed power factor improvement and harmonic mitigation of AC-DC converters based on separately excited DC motor using tuned passive filter. In this context experimental model is designed and results are analyzed by power quality analyzer.展开更多

Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood mononuclear cells and methylation status of TACE promoter was determined by methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction. The clinical and laboratory parameters were collected.RESULTS: One hundred and thirty of 160 patients with CHB(81.25%) and 38 of 40 HCs(95%) displayed TACE promoter methylation. The difference was significant(χ2 = 4.501, P < 0.05). TACE promoter methylation frequency in HBe Ag-positive CHB(58/80, 72.5%) was significantly lower than that in HBe Ag-negative CHB(72/80, 90%; χ2 = 8.041, P < 0.01) and HCs(χ2 = 8.438, P < 0.01). However, no significant difference was observed in the methylation frequency between HBe Agnegative CHB and HCs(χ2 = 0.873, P > 0.05). In the HBe Ag-positive group, TACE methylation frequency was significantly negatively correlated with HBe Ag(r =-0.602, P < 0.01), alanine aminotransferase(r =-0.461, P < 0.01) and aspartate aminotransferase(r =-0.329, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Patients with HBe Ag-positive CHB have aberrant demethylation of the TACE promoter, which may potentially serve as a biomarker for HBe Ag seroconversion.展开更多

A BL configuration of Cuk converter is proposed which eliminates the usage of diode bridge rectifier at the front end of the PFC converter, thus reducing the switching and conduction losses coupled with it. This new BL Cuk converter has two semiconductors switches. The current flow during each switching cycle interval of the converter reduces the conduction losses compared to the conventional Cuk PFC converter. It also reduces the input current ripple and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). The inrush current during the starting period is limited and the input, output currents of the converter are continuous with minimum current ripple. Hence it is preferred mostly compared to other PFC circuits. The proposed topology works in the Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) with simple control circuitry to achieve almost a unity power factor with less distortion in the input AC current. The switching of the power switches is done under zero current. The proposed PFC topologies are theoretically investigated and performance comparisons are made with the conventional rectifiers. The proposed PFC converter is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK with Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC) and results are demonstrated to evaluate the effectiveness of the controller.展开更多

Studies about risk factors in the patients are meaningful in early forecast and effective prevention of the onset of stroke. Renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system plays an important role in the regulation of blood pressure and the development of stroke, while recent studies have found that the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 （ACE2） may be a reversal agent for the development and progression of ischemic stroke. Methods The ACE2 gene was measured in 139 EH patients with ischemic stroke using polymerase chain reaction （PCR） and restriction fragment length polymorphism （PCR-RFLP） tests. Detailed and complete clinical and biochemical data were collected, including pulse pressure, hsCRP, IMT, HDL-C and uric acid levels. Study the correlation between angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 gene and the risk factor for onset of ischemic stroke in EH patients. Results Pulse pressure, hsCRP, IMT and uric acid levels had a positive correlation with on- set of ischemic stroke in EH patients. Among male patients, pulse pressure, hsCRP, IMT and HDL-C were higher in patients carrying A allele than B allele （P 〈 0.05）. While these factors were different in female patients carrying different genotypes in which A.A allele were highest. Patients with various genotypes showed different uric acid levels but showed no significant difference. Conclusion Among EH patients with complicated ischemic stroke, those carrying the A/AA allele show high level of risk factors and is likely to have the susceptibility of recurrence of stroke.展开更多

To improve the quality of the power supply system for RSSMs, an improved synchronous control strategy is suggested for the superconducting magnet power supply system, which comprises four series-connected six-pulse converters fed by a phase-shifting transformer, respectively. According to the proposed control strategy, the basic unit is two 12-pulse converters and the control method will be changed in terms of loadfluctuations which are represented by the per unit value of converter output voltage. As a result,harmonic is greatly reduced but the power factor is also high.展开更多

It is used in many applications in power systems and machine drives. However, an exact definite output signal from the dc side still not recognized. The waveforms of output voltage and current demonstrate an imperfect dc signal and constitute losses, harmonic distortion, low power factor, and observed some ripples.
