A new log-domain first-order multifunction filter is proposed in this letter. The proposed filter is systematically derived using the state-space synthesis procedure from a corresponding block diagram. It provides low-pass (LP), high-pass (HP), and all-pass (AP) responses simultaneously for a single input signal. The filter circuit has a very simple structure since it uses only bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and a grounded capacitor. It can be electronically tuned by changing an external current. The filter has a greater bandwidth due to its inherent current-mode and log-domain operations. PSPICE simulations are given to confirm the theoretical analysis.

This paper addresses a the maintenance system based on the concept of RAMS (Reliability, Availability, Maintenance, Safety) for the effective maintenance of the urban transit. A systematic approach for developing a cost-effective maintenance strategy based on the component reliability of the system in question is performed according to the following steps : definition of function, functional failures of the systems, construction of RBD (Reliability Block Diagram), and the calculation of reliability indices. The developed preventive maintenance system generates maintenance plan and repair request based on the analysed RAMS data of components and maintenance experience.

Earlier studies indicated clearly that information obtained from conventional statistics cannot provide guidance on detailed casualty analysis. Much more is needed if casualty statistics are to play a proficient and vigorous role in encouraging safety. Specific difficulties originate from making the causal relationships clear. Fault tree analysis and symbolic modeling of functional block diagram are an efficient aid in safety analysis so that these methods are generally used in other industries. This paper describes the application of these tools in shipping casualties and how to evaluate the relationships between different causes of ship casualties. Thesee methods are proved to be an efficient and useful tools to indicate the relationships between individual physical factors. In addition these models permit easy understanding and recognition of the factors leading to individual casualty

A new current control scheme is suggest.ed which is suitable for ac servo inverter drives. The scheme uses a simple block diagram to produce the reference stator voltage vector, and the vector nearest to it is chosen for switching. With the same arrangment three kinds of operation modes are possible : (1) constant rate sampling, (2) constant current deviation, (3) adaptive current deviation. In mode (1) current deviation after one period is minimized, while in mode (2) and (3) intervals between switchings are maximized.

This paper describes the results of RBD(Reliability Block Diagram) analysis of control rod control system, which is being developed as part of KNICS project. The results of RBD indicate unavailability of control cabinet for control rod control system. A purpose of RBB is to evaluate unavailability of control cabinet, identify the design drawbacks of control cabinet, and propose design improvement to a designer to help design the more reliable control rod control system. This RBD defines the logical interaction of failure within a system.

This paper proposes the use of advanced generator models in the studies of Korean power systems to accurately represent the dynamic behaviors of synchronous generators and thus to achieve a better match between transient stability simulations and reality. In the paper, GENTPF and GENTPJ models are described which have appeared over the last decade in the WECC system. Those advanced models are compared with conventional synchronous generator models such as GENROU and GENSAL, which have been used in dynamic studies of Korean power systems. The advancements are investigated by recognizing the differences in block diagram, saturation modeling, and network interface equations. Simulation comparisons between conventional and advanced models in Korean power systems are then provided. Clear distinctions identified in the simulation results demonstrate the necessity of the use of advanced generator models in Korean power system.

Today, most weapon systems operate as component systems of SoS(System of Systems) and they produce synergy effects in the battle field by interoperating. In addition, the acquisition issues on weapon systems have expanded into SoS context including sustainment analysis. Availability is the sustainment KPP(Key Performance Parameter) of weapon systems. In this paper, a simulation model is proposed to analyze the availability of SoS. The simulation model consists of 5 modules: Mission and Task, System, System RBD, Maintenance system and a simulation engine. Then it was implemented and applied to a SoS. As a result of the application, the simulation model could be applied for analyzing the availability of the SoS and provided information about critical tasks and risky component systems to complete the given mission of the SoS.

Main sources of increased vibrations and air noise on ship are main and auxiliary engines and ship ducts. The various ways of transfer of vibration energy and air noise in passenger cabin of a vessel require, in general case, of various methods of attenuation. The transfer of vibration energy from engines through a support requires, alongside with shock-absorbers, availability active shock-absorbers. The transfer of vibration energy and hydrodynamic noise on ship ducts requires availability, alongside with flexible muffler, active mufflers. The availability of air noise from working equipment can require, along with absorbent covers, of space systems of active noise control. In the given article it is spoken about the unified approach to formation of the block-diagram of active noise and vibration control. The complex approach permits to receive additional efficiency in reduction of noise in passenger cabin of vessels.

During the design phase of a system, which requires high reliability and safety such as aircraft, high speed train and nuclear power plant, reliability engineer must set up the target system reliability. To meet a reliability goal for the system, reliability allocation should be done gradually from the system to its element. For this end, first of all, we need to construct functional block diagram based on the design output and PWBS(Project Work Breakdown System). Another important input data for reliability allocation is the relationship between the cost and the reliability. In this study we investigate various reliability allocation models, which can be applicable to aircraft, vehicle, and power plant, and etc. And we suggest a proper reliability allocation model which can be effectively applicable to KTX-II high speed train to achieve the target system reliability.

Optimum performance and reliable operation of wind turbines and/or wind farms are crucial parameters for stakeholders such as OEMs, operators, owners and investors. The efficiency and life time of wind power heavily depends on operation and maintenance efforts. Every manufacturer or owner wants to have wind turbines with high reliability, which can be defined as the probability that a wind turbine will perform its designed function for a certain period of time under stated conditions. In this regard, IEC WG26 is now developing a technical specification defining information categories from which reliability metrics can be identified and reported.
