A fully soft-switched extended-period quasi-resonantpower-factor-correction circuit

This paper presents the design criteria, procedure, and implementation of a soft-switched power-factor-correction (PFC) circuit based on the extended-period quasi-resonant (EPQR) principles. All power electronic devices including switches and diodes in the circuit are fully soft switched. The design method is demonstrated in a prototype circuit. The operating principles are confirmed with computer simulation and experimental results. A comparison of the EP-QR operation and zero-voltage-transition (ZVT) pulse-width modulation (PWM) method     

On the construction of the reachability domain in one nonlinear problem

An algorithm for construction of the reachability domain by the given time instant ? for a nonlinear third order system under the condition of preliminary approach to a predefined point is proposed. All possible cases of location of this point in the motion plane of the system for different values of the time instant ? are studied.

Adaptive Optimal Nonlinear Filtration and Certain Related Topics. II

The properties of the solutions of optimal parametric filtration equations and an adaptive variant of the problem with regard for time-drift of the unknown parameters of the system are studied. Along with the Kalman interpretation of the optimal adaptive nonlinear filter, the Bayes approach to applying the respective a posteriori densities is also studied.
