Dependability-critical systems, such as digital instrumentation and control systems in nuclear power plants, necessitate engineering techniques and tools to provide assurances of their safety and reliability. Determining system reliability at the architectural design phase is important since it may guide design decisions and provide crucial information for trade-off analysis and estimating system cost. Despite this, reliability and system engineering remain separate disciplines and engineering processes by which the dependability analysis results may not represent the designed system. In this article we provide an overview and application of our approach to build architecture-based, dynamic system models for dependability-critical systems and then automatically generate dynamic fault trees (DFT) for comprehensive, tool-supported reliability analysis. Specifically, we use the Architectural Analysis and Design Language (AADL) to model the structural, behavioral and failure aspects of the system in a composite architecture model. From the AADL model, we seek to derive the DFT(s) and use Galileo's automated reliability analyses to estimate system reliability. This approach alleviates the dependability engineering - systems engineering knowledge expertise gap, integrates the dependability and system engineering design and development processes and enables a more formal, automated and consistent DFT construction. We illustrate this work using an example based on a dynamic digital feed-water control system for a nuclear reactor.

Up until recently, the energy and the economic analysis of a cogeneration system have been implemented by a manual calculation that is based on monthly thermal loads of buildings. In this study, a cogeneration system modeling validation with a detail building energy simulation, eQUEST, for a building energy and cost prediction has been implemented. By analyzing the hourly building electricity and thermal loads, it enables users to decide proper cogeneration system capacity and to estimate more accurate building energy consumption. eQUEST also verified the energy analysis when the heat pump system is integrated with the cogeneration system. The mechanical system configuration benefits from the high efficiency heat pump system while avoiding the building electricity demand increase. Economic analysis such as LCC (Life Cycle Cost) method is carried out to verify economical benefits of the system by applying actual utility rates of KEPCO(Korea Electricity Power COmpany) and KOGAS(KOrea GAS company).

This paper deals with 3D simulation of industrial robot for automated manufacturing system. In order to evaluate the operational characteristics of the industrial robot system in the worst case motion scenario, flexible - rigid multibody analysis was performed. Then, the rigid body dynamics analysis was performed and the results were compared with the flexible - rigid multibody analysis. Modal analysis was also performed to confirm the dynamic characteristics of the robot system. In the case of the flexible-rigid multibody simulation, only the structural members of interest were modeled as elastic bodies to confirm the stress state. The remaining structural members were modeled as rigid bodies to reduce computer resources.

A formulation to perform static equilibrium and linear vibration analysis is presented in this paper. The formulation employs minimum number of equations of motion which are derived by using a partial velocity matrix. The static equilibrium analysis is performed first, then the linear vibration analysis is performed at the static equilibrium position. By using the formulation presented in this paper, static equilibrium and linear vibration analysis of a high speed electric train system are performed. A single bogie system, a power car vehicle, and a train system which consists of five vehicles are analyzed, respectively. Natural frequencies and a few lowest mode shapes of the two are identified in this paper.

In the prototype stage of a car developing program, the efficiency of trouble shooting is an important factor to be considered. Structural modifications by the design sensitivity analysis are applied to a steering wheel system for improving the idle vibration of the prototype passenger car. For the design sensitivity analysis, the experimental modal analysis for the steering system attached to a body-in-white is fulfilled and the modal parameters extracted from the experimental data are used to predict the effect of structural modification, The design sensitivity results rank the locations to be reinforced in terms of frequency variation. The modification of steering system according to the sensitivity analysis results shifted the resonant frequency of the system effectively. In addition, the idle test of the car after the structural modifications f steering system shows that the proposed method can reduce vibration of the steering wheel efficiently.

To evaluate the stability of a pneumatic conveyor system, a flow analysis and structural analysis were performed using the FSI technique. Prototypes were fabricated and verified. As a result of the flow analysis, the maximum pressure applied to the device was calculated to be 0.55 MPa. The structural analysis determined that the maximum stress was 131 MPa and the yield strength of the structure was less than 205 MPa. The safety of the system was confirmed by the fact that no deformation occurred during the manufacturing and operation of the prototype.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the design sensitivity of an independent driving system for disaster response. The research procedure was as follows. First, an analysis model based on the circuit diagram of the driving system was developed. Second, to ensure the reliability of the analytical model, the load-free test results and analysis results were compared. Even if different loads acted on four independent motors, the system was confirmed to be implemented according to the design intent. Finally, the design variables of the analysis model were analyzed to obtain design variables with a significant impact on system performance and stability. The analysis program used simulation X.

In this paper, the Resistive Companion Form(RCF) analysis method is applied to analyze small signal stability of power systems including thyristor controlled FACTS equipments such as SVC. The eigenvalue sensitivity analysis algorithm in discrete systems based on the RCF analysis method is presented and applied to the power system including SVC. As a result of simulation, the RCF analysis method is proved very effective to precisely calculate the variations of eigenvalues or newly generated unstable oscillation modes after periodic switching operations of SVC. Also the eigenvalue sensitivity analysis method based on the RCF analysis method enabled to precisely calculate eigenvalue sensitivity coefficients of controller parameters about the dominant oscillation mode after periodic switching operations in discrete systems. These simulation results are different from those of the conventional continuous system analysis method such as the state space equation and proved that the RCF analysis method is very effective to analyze the discrete power systems including periodically operated switching equipments such as SVC.

본 연구에서는 원자력발전소 비상디젤발전기의 내진안전성을 정량적으로 평가하기 위하여 지진취약도 분석방법을 제안하고 제안한 방법을 이용하여 비상디젤발전기의 지진취약도를 평가하여 정량적인 지진위험도를 제시하였다. 기존의 비상디젤발전기뿐만 아니라 면진장치를 설치하여 지진력 저감효과를 증대시킨 비상디젤발전기에 대한 지진취약도 분석을 함께 수행하여 비상디젤발전기와 같은 대형 회전기기의 경우 면진장치를 통한 지진취약도의 변화를 살펴보았다. 최종적으로 지진취약도 결과를 이용하여 HCLPF값의 변화를 비교하여 면진에 의하여 비상디젤발전기의 취약도를 크게 개선 할 수 있는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 면진된 경우 면진장치의 파괴가 전체 거동을 지배하므로 면진장치의 성능개선이 필요한 것을 알 수 있었다.
