Research on High Buck DC-DC Converters Based on Resonant Switched Capacitor and LLC Circuits by Zhuxuan Tian, Yuan Wang, Haijun Han, Qi Zhang, Chen Zhang, Yuqing Bu, Yueshi Guan

“…This paper employs the resonant switched capacitor (RSC) converter and LLC resonant converter as case studies, elucidating their operational principles and optimizing them for the pre-buckling scenario. Subsequently, test prototypes of the RSC converter and LLC converter, with a power level of 200W, were constructed, resulting in a peak efficiency of 95.5% and a power density of 544.15W/in3 for the RSC converter; and a peak efficiency of 96.6% and a power density of 93.8W/in3 for the LLC converter. …”

Study on the Seismic Performance of Box-Plate Steel Structure Modular Unit by Hui Mao, Guang-chong Qin, Tao Lan

“…The test results show that the destruction of the box-plate steel structure modular unit under the low cyclic loading effect starts with corner buckling and ends with corner wallboard tear. The test piece has excellent bearing capacity and energy dissipation; the corner reinforcing structure measure also has enhanced the seismic performance of the modular unit. …”
