To detect islanding mode when the grid is being tripped is a major safety issue in the Utility Interactive Photo Voltaic (UIPV) system. In this paper, analytical design method is suggested for AFD & RPV method under IEEE 929-2000 recommended islanding test condition. We have discussed that there is a same point. we injected reactive component of the current by AFD & RPV methods, but the current reference generated is other waveform. Possible if amount of reactive components in this methods are same each method, there is happened same rates frequency variation. To verify the validity of the analytical comparison, this paper presents simulation and experimental results from single phase, 3[kW] inverter for the transformerless UIPV system.

본 논문은 계통연계형 소용량 태양광 인버터에 적용된 AFD(Active Frequency Drift) 기반의 단독 운전 검출 기법을 제안한다. 태양광 시스템에 일반적인 인버터 토폴로지를 사용한 경우, 무효전력 주입을 이용하여 단독운전 검출이 가능하다. 하지만 무효전력의 제어가 불가능한 인버터를 사용한 경우에는 기존의 무효전력을 이용하는 단독운전 검출기법을 사용할 수 없다. 무효전력의 제어가 불가능한 인버터 토폴로지에 새로운 스위칭 기법을 적용하면 무효전력을 주입한 효과를 얻을 수 있고, 이를 통해 기존의 AFD 방식을 응용하여 단독운전 검출이 가능한 새로운 검출기법을 제안하였다. 제안하는 검출기법은 기존의 AFD 방식보다 인버터 출력전류의 THD (Total Harmonic Distortion)를 개선할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 제안하는 기법의 성능을 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였다.

To detect islanding mode when the grid is being tripped is a major safety issue in utility interactive PV(UIPV) system. Widely used techniques among various active methods to detect islanding mode are Reactive power variation (RPV)method and Active frequency drift(AFD) method. In this paper, analytical design method is suggested for AFD and RPV method under IEEE recommended islanding test condition. And in order to show the validity of proposed method, EMTP based simulation was done for UIPV system with RPV method and AFD method. Results shows proposed method is very useful.

Among various retrofitting strategies, use of semi-active control for retrofitting a building structure has gained momentum in recent years. One of the techniques for such retrofitting is to connect a weaker building to an adjacent stronger building by semi-active devices, so that performances of a weaker building are significantly improved for seismic forces. In this paper, a ten storey weaker building is connected to an adjacent stronger building using magneto-rheological (MR) dampers, for primarily improving the performance of the weaker building in terms of displacement, drift and base shear. For this, a fuzzy logic controller is specifically developed by fuzzyfying the responses of the coupled system. The performance of the control strategy is compared with the passive-on and passive-off controls. Pounding Mitigation between the two buildings is also investigated using all three control strategies. The results show that there exists a fundamental frequency ratio between the two buildings for which maximum control of the weaker building response takes place with no penalty on the stronger building. There exists also a fundamental frequency ratio where control of the weaker building response is achieved at the expense of the amplification of the stronger building. However, coupling strategy always improves the possibility of pounding mitigation.

This study was conducted to estimate the drift of change for kimchi purchase, and to contribute to quality improvement of kimchi sold at markets. Questionnaries were distributed to 450 adults and 396 were statistically analyzed. The methods used to analyze the items were frequency analysis, Chi-square, t-tests and ANOVA. The highest preference for kinds of kimchi was Beachoo kimchi, while the preference for Nabak kimchi was low. In terms of the degree of ripening, most subjects preferred properly ripened kimchi. With regard to the purchase amount the subjects preferred 1 kg and mainly purchased it once every three months at large market and supermarkets. The main reason for purchasing kimchi at markets was 'convenience', while the reason they didn't purchase it was 'it might contain artificial seasoning'. With regard to the development and improvement of the kimchi industry, the subjects belived that taste and ripening should be standardized, and that kimchi should be treated sanitarily. They acknowledged that kimchi products should be diversified, and active marketing should be carried out in order for it to be globalized.

In this paper, the design, fabrication and characterization of a piezoelectric friction damper are presented. It was sized with the proposed practical procedure to minimize the story drift and floor acceleration of an existing 1/4-scale, three-story frame structure under both near-fault and far-field earthquakes. The design operation friction force in kip was numerically determined to range from 2.2 to 3.3 times the value of the peak ground acceleration in g (gravitational acceleration). Experimental results indicated that the load-displacement loop of the damper is nearly rectangular in shape and independent of the excitation frequency. The coefficient of friction of the damper is approximately 0.85 when the clamping force on the damper is above 400 lbs. It was found that the friction force variation of the damper generated by piezoelectric actuators with 1000 Volts is approximately 90% of the expected value. The properties of the damper are insensitive to its ambient temperature and remain almost the same after being tested for more than 12,000 cycles.
