This paper presents an analytical method for predicting the electromagnetic performance in permanent magnet (PM) machine with the spoke-type rotor (STR) and a proposed hybrid rotor structure (HRS), respectively. The key of this method is to combine magnetic field analysis model (MFAM) with the magnetic equivalent circuit model. The influence of the irregular PM shape is considered by the segmentation calculation. To obtain the boundary condition in the MFAM, respectively, two equivalent methods on the rotor side are proposed. In the STR, the average flux density of the rotor core outer-surface is calculated to solve the Laplace's equation with considering for the rotor core outer-surface eccentric. In the HRS, based on the Thevenin's theorem, the equivalent parameters of PM remanence BreB and thickness hpme are obtained as a given condition, which can be utilized to compute the air-gap flux density by conventional classic magnetic field analysis model of surface-mounted PMs with air-gap region. Finally, the proposed analytical models are verified by the finite element analysis (FEA) with comparisons of the air-gap flux density, flux linkage, back-EMF and electromagnetic torque, respectively. Furthermore, the performance that the machine with the proposed hybrid structure rotor can improve the torque density as explained.

With the globalization of integrated circuit design and manufacturing, Hardware Trojan have posed serious threats to the security of commercial chips. In this paper, we propose the framework of two-level temperature difference based thermal map analysis detection method. In our proposed method, thermal maps of an operating chip during a period are captured, and they are differentiated with the thermal maps of a golden model. Then every pixel's differential temperature of differential thermal maps is extracted and compared with other pixel's. To mitigate the Gaussian white noise and to differentiate the information of Hardware Trojan from the information of normal circuits, Kalman filter algorithm is involved. In our experiment, FPGAs configured with equivalent circuits are utilized to simulate the real chips to validate our proposed approach. The experimental result reveals that our proposed framework can detect Hardware Trojan whose power proportion magnitude is 10''3.

A method for the multiple faults diagnosis in linear analog circuits is presented in this paper. The proposed approach is based upon the concept named by the indirect compensation theorem. This theorem is reducing the procedure of fault diagnosis in the analog circuit to the symbolic analysis process. An extension of the indirect compensation theorem for the linear subcircuit is proposed. The indirect compensation provides equivalent replacement of the n-ports subcircuit by n norators and n fixators of voltages and currents. The proposed multiple faults diagnosis techniques can be used for evaluation of any kind of terminal characteristics of the two-port network. For calculation of the circuit determinant expressions, the Generalized Parameter Extraction Method is implemented. The main advantage of the analysis method is that it is cancellation free. It requires neither matrix nor ordinary graph description of the circuit. The process of symbolic circuit analysis is automated by the freeware computer program Cirsym which can be used online. The experimental results are presented to show the efficiency and reliability of the proposed technique.
