The Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) is a multi-hop wireless network consisting of mesh routers and clients, where the mesh routers have minimal mobility and form the backbone. The WMN is primarily designed to access outer network to mesh clients through backhaul gateways. As traffic converges on the gateways, traffic hotspots are likely to form in the neighborhood of the gateways. In this paper, we propose Congestion Aware Multi-path Routing (CAMR) protocol to tackle this problem. Upon congestion, CAMR divides the clients under a mesh STA into two groups and returns a different path for each group. The CAMR protocol triggers multi-path routing in such a manner that the packet reordering problem is avoided. Through simulations, we show that CAMR improves the performance of the WMN in terms of throughput, delay and packet drop ratio.

This paper deals with the design considerations and characteristics analysis of a SCR rectifier in pulsed over load operation. The Pulse repetition rate is one every 150 seconds and each current pulse width is 10 seconds. Therefore the characteristics of the transformer and SCR rectifier which consist the pulsed DC power supply are different from those of the conventional AC/DC power converters having continuous load. The variations of the DC output voltage drop, PF and THD versus the %Z of the transformer is analyzed through simulations and the experimental results thought to be useful in design high power pulsed DC power suppler.

Run-Out-Table is the region between EDT and CT. Hot killed strip is cooled by air and water in ROT. In this procedure, phase transformation and shape deformation occur due to temperature drop. Because of un-ideal cooling condition, deformation of strip and non-uniform phase distribution come into existence. This phenomenon affects the strip property and lead th the existence of residual stress. And it exerts effects on the Coiling process, Coil Cooling process, and Un-coiling process. Through these process, the residual stresses of strip are more larger and unbalance of these stresses become more severe. Finite element (FE) based models for the analysises of non-steady state heat transfer and elastoplastic deformation are described in this investigation. The analysises of thermodynamics and phase transformation kinetics are suggested also. Using the ROT simulation result coiling process and coil cooling process simulations are carried out.

Transformer inrush current can cause the voltage drop by source impedance. The accurate modeling and analysis for inrush current is first step to limit the inrush current and improve the power qualify. This paper presents the modeling of transformer inrush current by EMTP-RV using Jeju power system, Korea. The method to model the hysteresis curve of transformer in EMTP-RV is discussed. Simulations demonstrate the verification of modeling of inrush current by comparing the data recorded in field with simulation values and analyzing the harmonics of inrush current.

Catheters are used to measure translesional pressure gradients in the stenosed coronary arteries. Uses of catheters during coronary angioplasty cause flow obstructions. A narrowed flow cross section with catheter effectively introduced a tighter stenosis than the enlarged residual stenoses after balloon angiplasty. Catheters in blood vessels cause pressure gradient rise and blood flow drop during the measurements. In this study, three dimensional computer simulations are conducted to investigate the flow blockage effects due to the catheter obstructions during the coronary angioplasty. The computer simulation models are generated by the data, which are measured by coronary angiogram, and the blood is treated as non-Newtonian fluid. The velocity, pressure, and wall shear stress variations are observed for the estimate of damages of blood vessel. This study is also extended to investigate the effects of stenotic vessel size, and shape and catheter size and location.

A wind farm consists of many wind generator(WG)s therefore, it is generally a complex power system. A wind farm as a distributed generation(DG) affects utility power system. If a conventional protection schemes are applied, it is difficult to detect faults correctly and the schemes can't provide proper coordination in some cases. This paper presents a protection algorithm for a wind farm which consists of a looped collection circuit. Because the proposed algorithm can distinguish between an internal fault and an external fault in a wind farm, The proposed algorithm can disconnect the faulted section in a wind farm. This algorithm is based on an overcurrent protection technique with the change of the ratio of the output current of a generator to the current of the looped line connected to each generator to collect the each generator's power. In addition, operating time of the algorithm is shortened by using the voltage drop at a generator collection point. The performance of the proposed algorithm was verified under various fault conditions using PSCAD/EMTDC simulations.

The present article investigates the influence of droplet drag models on predictions of diesel spray behaviors under ultra-high injection pressure conditions. To consider drop deformation and shock disturbance, this study introduces a new hybrid model in predicting drag coefficient from the literature findings. Numerical simulations are first conducted on transient behaviors of single droplet to compare the hybrid model with earlier conventional model. Moreover, using two different models, extensive numerical calculations are made for diesel sprays under ultra-high pressure sprays. It is found that the droplet drag models play an important role in determining the transient behaviors of sprays such as spray tip velocity and penetration lengths. Numerical results indicate that this new hybrid model yields the much better conformity with measurements especially under the ultra-high injection pressure conditions.

This paper presents a watermarking method using similarity between frames in the scene to resist to various attacks and to improve the video quality. This method inserts and detects a watermark in the frame pair every 3 frame. The experimental simulations show that the video quality is improved more than 45dB compared with previous methods and the watermark is resistant to frame drop, MPEG compression and low pass filter attacks.

PWM-VSI based ac-drives have high nonlinearity due to dead-time in the inverter and the voltage drop across the switching devices. In this paper, we introduced a new nonlinear model of PWM-VSl including parastic capacitor and also showed validity of the model by circuit simulations and experiments. Furthermore, we proposed an on-line identification algorithm for the uncertain model parameters.

In this study, experiments and simulations were conducted for a 1,200-V-class trench Si insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) with a small cell pitch below 2.5 ㎛. Presently, as a power device, the 1,200-V-class trench Si IGBT is used for automotives including electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and industrial motors. We obtained a breakdown voltage of 1,440 V, threshold of 6 V, and state voltage drop of 1.75 V. This device is superior to conventional IGBTs featuring a planar gate. To derive its electrical characteristics, we extracted design and process parameters. The cell pitch was 0.95 ㎛ and total wafer thickness was 140 ㎛ with a resistivity of 60 Ω·cm. We will apply these results to achieve fine-pitch gate power devices suitable for electrical automotive industries.
