As fuel prices climb and the global automotive sector migrates to more sustainable vehicle technologies, the future of South Africa’s minibus taxis is in flux. The authors’ previous research has found that battery electric technology struggles to meet all the mobility requirements of minibus taxis. They investigate the technical feasibility of powering taxis with hydrogen fuel cells instead. The following results are projected using a custom-built simulator, and tracking data of taxis based in Stellenbosch, South Africa. Each taxi requires around 12 kg of hydrogen gas per day to travel an average distance of 360 km. 465 kWh of electricity, or 860 m2 of solar panels, would electrolyse the required green hydrogen. An economic analysis was conducted on the capital and operational expenses of a system of ten hydrogen taxis and an electrolysis plant. Such a pilot project requires a minimum investment of € 3.8 million (R 75 million), for a 20 year period. Although such a small scale roll-out is technically feasible and would meet taxis’ performance requirements, the investment cost is too high, making it financially unfeasible. They conclude that a large scale solution would need to be investigated to improve financial feasibility; however, South Africa’s limited electrical generation capacity poses a threat to its technical feasibility.

Most Question-answering (QA) systems rely on training data to reach their optimal performance. However, acquiring training data for supervised systems is both time-consuming and resource-intensive. To address this, in this paper, we propose TFCSG, an unsupervised similar question retrieval approach that leverages pre-trained language models and multi-task learning. Firstly, topic keywords in question sentences are extracted sequentially based on a latent topic-filtering algorithm to construct unsupervised training corpus data. Then, the multi-task learning method is used to build the question retrieval model. There are three tasks designed. The first is a short sentence contrastive learning task. The second is the question sentence and its corresponding topic sequence similarity judgment task. The third is using question sentences to generate their corresponding topic sequence task. The three tasks are used to train the language model in parallel. Finally, similar questions are obtained by calculating the cosine similarity between sentence vectors. The comparison experiment on public question datasets that TFCSG outperforms the comparative unsupervised baseline method. And there is no need for manual marking, which greatly saves human resources.
Analog-/Mixed-Signal (AMS) design verification is one of the most challenging and time consuming tasks of todays complex system on chip (SoC) designs. In contrast to digital system design, AMS designers have to deal with a continuous state space of conservative quantities, highly nonlinear relationships, non-functional influences, etc. enlarging the number of possibly critical scenarios to infinity. In this special session we demonstrate the verification of functional properties using simulative and formal methods. We combine different approaches including automated abstraction and refinement of mixed-level models, state-space discretization as well as affine arithmetic. To reach sufficient verification coverage with reasonable time and effort, we use enhanced simulation schemes to avoid conventional simulation drawbacks.

An integrated synchronous buck converter with a high resolution dead time control for input voltages up to 48V and 10MHz switching frequency is presented. The benefit of an enhanced dead time control at light loads to enable zero voltage switching at both the high-side and low-side switch at low output load is studied. This way, compact multi-MHz DCDC converters can be implemented at high efficiency over a wide load current range. The concept also eliminates body diode forward conduction losses and minimizes reverse recovery losses. A dead time resolution of 125 ps is realized by an 8-bit differential delay chain. A further efficiency enhancement by soft switching at the high-side switch at light load is achieved with a voltage boost of the switching node by dead time control in forced continuous conduction mode. The monolithic converter is implemented in an 180nm high-voltage BiCMOS technology. At V IN = 48V, V OUT = 5V, 50mA load, 10MHz switching frequency and 500 nH output inductance, the efficiency is measured to be increased by 14.4% compared to a conventional predictive dead time control. A peak efficiency of 80.9% is achieved at 12V input.
Purpose
Injury or inflammation of the middle ear often results in the persistent tympanic membrane (TM) perforations, leading to conductive hearing loss (HL). However, in some cases the magnitude of HL exceeds that attributable by the TM perforation alone. The aim of the study is to better understand the effects of location and size of TM perforations on the sound transmission properties of the middle ear.
Methods
The middle ear transfer functions (METF) of six human temporal bones (TB) were compared before and after perforating the TM at different locations (anterior or posterior lower quadrant) and to different degrees (1 mm, ¼ of the TM, ½ of the TM, and full ablation). The sound-induced velocity of the stapes footplate was measured using single-point laser-Doppler-vibrometry (LDV). The METF were correlated with a Finite Element (FE) model of the middle ear, in which similar alterations were simulated.
Results
The measured and calculated METF showed frequency and perforation size dependent losses at all perforation locations. Starting at low frequencies, the loss expanded to higher frequencies with increased perforation size. In direct comparison, posterior TM perforations affected the transmission properties to a larger degree than anterior perforations. The asymmetry of the TM causes the malleus-incus complex to rotate and results in larger deflections in the posterior TM quadrants than in the anterior TM quadrants. Simulations in the FE model with a sealed cavity show that small perforations lead to a decrease in TM rigidity and thus to an increase in oscillation amplitude of the TM mainly above 1 kHz.
Conclusion
Size and location of TM perforations have a characteristic influence on the METF. The correlation of the experimental LDV measurements with an FE model contributes to a better understanding of the pathologic mechanisms of middle-ear diseases. If small perforations with significant HL are observed in daily clinical practice, additional middle ear pathologies should be considered. Further investigations on the loss of TM pretension due to perforations may be informative.
The design process for a single phase, smart, universal charger for light electric vehicles, is presented. With a step up, power factor correction circuit, followed by a phase shifted, full bridge converter, with synchronous rectification on the secondary side. Due to the resistor-capacitor-diode snubber on the secondary side, the current peak at the start of power transfer, leads to false triggering during light load control with peak current mode control. The solution developed for light loads, is to change from peak current control to voltage control. This is achieved by limiting the maximum phase shift, instead of changing the reference value. For the power factor correction stage, measured and calculated efficiencies are compared as a function of the output power. The voltage and current waveforms are shown for the power factor correction circuit, and for the phase shifted bridge, the measured current waveform is compared with simulation.
