Abstract: System, method, and computer program product are described herein for autonomously docking an autonomous vehicle. Data including (i) an indication that the autonomous vehicle is within a docking location and (ii) an adjustment distance to place the autonomous vehicle within a threshold distance of the docking location is received. An external reference point detection module identifies an external reference point to the autonomous vehicle. A docking module incrementally adjusts a position of the autonomous vehicle in a first axis based on a distance between the autonomous vehicle and the external reference point until either (i) the autonomous vehicle is within the threshold distance of the docking location or (ii) a number of adjustments exceeds an adjustment maximum.

Abstract: An electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT) system for inspecting a part includes an EMAT sensor and a power supply for supplying an output power to the EMAT sensor. The power supply includes a DC/DC converter to boost an input DC voltage into a boosted DC voltage, a DC/AC inverter having Silicon Carbide (SiC) Mosfet power switches to invert the boosted DC voltage into an AC square voltage, and an output filter to filter the AC square voltage into an AC sinusoidal voltage. The AC sinusoidal voltage is the output power from the power supply to the EMAT sensor.

Abstract: A power conversion system includes at least one multi-level power converter and a controller coupled to the at least one multi-level power converter. The controller includes a first CMV injection module and a second CMV injection module. The first CMV injection module generates a first CMV signal for modifying at least one voltage command to achieve a first function in association with operation of the power conversion system. The second CMV injection module generates a second CMV signal based at least in part on a three-level CMV limit either for modifying the at least one voltage command or for further modifying the at least one modified voltage command to achieve a second function in association with operation of the power conversion system.

Abstract: This invention concerns a medical non-woven fabric containing inorganic oxides complex powder. The inorganic oxides complex powder consists of 80-95% (weight) of TiO.sub.2, 2-10% (weight) of Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and 1-10% (weight) of SiO.sub.2. This medical non-woven fabric can improve microcirculation remarkably and has special effect of dephlogistication, detumescence and speeding up healing of wounds. Thus, it is suitable for supplementary treatment of tumefaction, surface wounds and fracture.
