In the field of power electronics, new thermal and electrical obligations arose due to increasing power density requirements.

This material change leads to challenging tasks and problems, for instance the occurring wear of the bond tool. The wear is significantly higher using copper wire instead of aluminum and results in a dramatic loss in the amount of interconnects which can be produced reliable by a single tool. To reduce setting-up time in the production and minimizing costs, an enlarged bonding tool lifetime is desirable. Therefore, the paper discusses the influences of bonding parameters on the wear. The key question is which of the tasks cannot be fulfilled with increased wear of the tool, e.g. loss of process capability. The main functions are fixing the wire in the tool groove, predeformation, applying normal force and transmission of ultrasonic oscillation to the wire.

Amongst these algorithms, Multiclass Support Vector Machines (MC-SVM) has gained popularity due to its relatively high classification accuracy, ability to classify multiple patterns and capability to handle noisy /incomplete data. However, its application is limited by the difficulty in determining the required kernel function and penalty parameters. To address this problem, this paper proposes a hybrid differential evolution -- particle swarm optimization (DE-PSO) algorithm to optimize the MC-SVM kernel function and penalty parameters. The differential algorithm (DE) obtains the search limit for the SVM parameters, while the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) determines the global optimum parameters for a given training data set. Since degrading machinery components display several degradation stages in their lifetime, the MC-SVM trained with optimum parameters are used to estimate the health states of a degrading machinery component, from which the remaining useful life (RUL) is predicted. This method improves the classification accuracy of MC-SVM in predicting the health states of a machinery component and consequently increases the accuracy of RUL predictions. The feasibility of the method is validated using bearing prognostic run-to-failure data obtained from NASA public data repository. A comparative study between MC-SVM with parameters obtained using simple grid search with n-fold cross validation and MCSVM with DE-PSO based on prognostic performance metrics reveals that the proposed method has better performance, with all the cases considered falling within a 10 \% error margin.

Since an ensemble of data driven methods has been considered as the state of the art approach in diagnosis and prognosis, the first approach was to evaluate the performance of an ensemble of data driven methods using the parametric data as input and problems (recommended maintenance action) as the output. Due to close correlation of parametric data of different problems, this approach produced high misclassification rate. Event-based decision trees were then constructed to identify problems associated with particular events. To distinguish between problems associated with events that appeared in multiple problems, support vector machine (SVM) with parameters optimally tuned using particle swarm optimization (PSO) was employed. Parametric data was used as the input to the SVM algorithm and majority voting was employed to determine the final decision for cases with multiple events. A total of 165 SVM models were constructed. This approach improved the overall score from 21 to 48. The method was further enhanced by employing an ensemble of three data driven methods, that is, SVM, random forests (RF) and bagged trees (BT), to build the event based models.

The probability of such unexpected height deviations can be calculated from the readjustment data. The system is equipped with sensors to measure the air gap. Assuming that the sensor noise is normally distributed, noise characteristics are determined. Using this information and the probability distribution of unexpected height deviations, the probability of a collision is determined.T he sensor noise and the probability of a collision between both parts of the linear drive are included in the dynamical model of the system.

This method has a number of advantages, such as low-temperature synthesis, and high purity and high quality of the product. In order to promote hydrothermal reactions, we developed an ultrasonic assisted hydrothermal method and confirmed that it produces dense and thick lead--zirconate--titanate (PZT) films. In the hydrothermal method, a crystal growth process follows the nucleation process. In this study, we verified that ultrasonic irradiation is effective for the nucleation process, and there is an optimum irradiation period to obtain thicker PZT films. With this optimization, a 9.2-$\mu$ m-thick PZT polycrystalline film was obtained in a single deposition process. For this film, ultrasonic irradiation was carried out from the beginning of the reaction for 18 h, followed by a 6 h deposition without ultrasonic irradiation. These results indicate that the ultrasonic irradiation mainly promotes the nucleation process.}}, author = {{Ohta, Kanako and Isobe, Gaku and Bornmann, Peter and Hemsel, Tobias and Morita, Takeshi}}, issn = {{0041-624X}}, journal = {{Ultrasonics}}, keywords = {{Piezoelectric material}}, number = {{4}}, pages = {{837 -- 841}}, title = {{{Study on optimizing ultrasonic irradiation period for thick polycrystalline PZT film by hydrothermal method}}}, doi = {{10.1016/j.ultras.2012.12.003}}, volume = {{53}}, year = {{2013}}, } @article{9867, abstract = {{We report the piezoelectric properties of CuO-doped hydrothermal (K,Na)NbO3 ceramics that can be applied as hard-type lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. To date, we have succeeded in synthesizing high-quality KNbO3 and NaNbO3 powders by the hydrothermal method, which is based on an ionic reaction at high temperature (around 210 $\,^{\circ}$C) and pressure. Increasing both the piezoelectric constant d and the mechanical quality factor (Qm) is important for resonance-type piezoelectric devices, such as ultrasonic motors and transformers. CuO doping into hydrothermal (K,Na)NbO3 ceramics was examined to realize hard-type lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. By doping with 1.2 mol \% CuO, Qm was increased and the dielectric loss (tan δ) was decreased to 0.5\%. The grain size was also influenced by the amount of CuO doping, which indicates that Qm is related to the density. To achieve a higher Qm value, the grain size is required to be less than 5 µm; however, excessive CuO doping leads to anomalous grain growth. Optimal piezoelectric properties were obtained for 1.2 mol \% CuO-doped (K,Na)NbO3; k31 = 0.32, d31 = -44 pC/N, Qm (radial) = 959, and tan δ= 0.5\%. These characteristics showed that CuO doping with hydrothermal powders is effective for obtaining hard-type ceramics, and the mechanical quality factor is more than ten times higher than that of nondoped hydrothermal (K,Na)NbO3 ceramics. Therefore, compared with the conventional solid-state method, we could succeed in obtaining hard-type ceramics by a simple and short process.}}, author = {{Yokouchi, Yuriko and Maeda, Takafumi and Bornmann, Peter and Hemsel, Tobias and Morita, Takeshi}}, journal = {{Japanese Journal of Applied Physics}}, number = {{7S}}, title = {{{Piezoelectric Properties of CuO-Doped (K,Na)NbO3 Lead-Free Ceramics Synthesized with Hydrothermal Powders}}}, doi = {{10.7567/JJAP.52.07HB03}}, volume = {{52}}, year = {{2013}}, } @article{3959, abstract = {{Microresonators containing quantum dots find application in devices like single photon emitters for quantum information technology as well as low threshold laser devices.

The spreading knife convective self-assembly technique is employed to distribute the nanosphere suspension on the pre-patterned surface. It is shown that this technique is particularly useful in combination with a functionalized surface where a selfassembled molecular monolayer changes the contact angle such that sphere deposition takes place almost exclusively in the trenches.
