  • Patent number: 11312199
    Abstract: An active vehicle height control method may include securing a road surface profile for unevenness of a road ahead of a vehicle and forming a target vehicle height profile by filtering the road surface profile. In addition, a controller is configured to form a disturbance profile using the road surface profile and the target vehicle height profile. The controller estimates vehicle behavior for the disturbance profile. Furthermore, the controller determines an inverse-phase control force that minimizes the estimated vehicle behavior, and drives an actuator using the inverse-phase control force to adjust a height of the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20200013526
    Abstract: Provided is a power cable, particularly, an ultra-high voltage underground or submarine cable for long-distance direct-current transmission. More specifically, the present invention relates to a power cable, in which an insulating layer has high dielectric strength, an electric field applied to the insulating layer is effectively reduced, and particularly, a large void is suppressed from occurring in the insulating layer when the power cable is left at low temperatures for a long time until electric current is supplied thereto after installed in a low-temperature environment, thereby effectively preventing partial discharge, dielectric breakdown, etc. from occurring due to an electric field concentrated in the large void.

  • Patent number: 9650688
    Abstract: A method of recovering Fe from steel-making slag is disclosed. The method includes the steps of melting steel-making slag having a higher Fe content than iron-making slag by heating the steel-making slag to a first temperature; cooling the molten slag to a second temperature that is lower than the first temperature and then maintaining the same at the second temperature for a predetermined time to thus precipitate Fe in the molten slag, thereby forming and growing an Fe-rich phase; rapidly cooling the slag to room temperature; and crushing the solidified slag and magnetically separating a magnetically-susceptible portion from a magnetically-unsusceptible portion.
