This paper presents a two stage three-phase proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) generation system. When the system is connected to a three-phase load, it is very sensitive to the characteristics and type of the load. Especially unbalanced three-phase loads, which result in a pulsating power that is twice the output frequency at the inverter output, and cause the dc-link to generate low frequency ripples. This penetrates to the fuel cell side through the front-end dc-dc converter, which makes the fuel cell work in an unsafe condition and degrades its lifespan. In this paper, the generation and propagation mechanism of low frequency ripple is analyzed and its impact on fuel cells is presented based on the PEMFC output characteristics model. Then a novel method to evaluate low frequency current ripple control capability is investigated. Moreover, a control scheme with bandpass filter inserted into the current feed-forward path, and ripple duty ratio compensation based on current mode control with notch filter is also proposed to achieve low frequency ripple suppression and dynamic characteristics improvement during load transients. Finally, different control methods are verified and compared by simulation and experimental results.

본 논문에서는 반도체 제조 공정에서 장비와 호스트간에 통신을 할 수 있는 SECS(SEMI Equipment Communications Standard) 프로토를의 개발을 제안한다. SECS 프로토콜은 메시지 전송을 위한 헤더 부분을 정의하는 SECS-I 프로토콜과 메시지 내용을 정의하는 SECS-II 프로토콜로 나뉘어지는데, RS232 시리얼 통신을 하는 SECS-I 프로토콜 대신에 이더넷(ethernet)을 통해 TCP/IP 통신을 할 수 있는 HSMS 프로토콜을 구현하고자 한다. HSMS(High-speed SECS Message Services)프로토콜은 SECS-I과 마찬가지로 SECS-II 메시지 내용을 전송 할 수 있도록 10바이트 크기의 헤더로 정의된다. HSMS 프로토콜 통신은 TCP/IP를 기반으로 하기 때문에 SECS 메시지 전송을 위한 통신 선로를 설정하기 위해 소켓 API를 응용하고 항상 통신 대기상태를 유지하기 위해 데몬(daemon) 형태로 구성한다. 실제 메시지 내용을 정의하고 있는 SECS-II 프로토콜은 데이터 인덱스 테이블과 표준에 정의된 형식에 맞게 파일형태나 DLL(Dynamic Link Library)형태로 구성하고 프로세스 프로그램(process program)을 수행하기 위해 SECS 프로토콜 표준에서 정의하는 SML(SECS Message Language)형식으로 변환 할 수 있는 스크립트 변환기(script translator)를 구현한다. 또한 HSMS 프로토콜이 전송할 SECS-II 메시지를 저장하기 위한 파라미터를 정의하고 실제 통신을 위한 테스트 베드를 위한 응용 프로그램을 제작한다

무선망에서 기존의 회선 서비스뿐만 아니라 패킷 서비스 및 영상 서비스 등을 수용하는 데 있어서 고려되어야 할 것들 중 하나는 무선 자원의 활용이다. 특히 패킷 서비스의 경우 가변적인 패킷의 길이와 양으로 효율적인 무선 자원관리를 어렵게 하는 요소를 지니고 있다. 즉, 무선 자원을 효율적으로 운용하기 위해서는 동적인 무선 자원할당 메커니즘이 중요한 역할을 한다. UMTS 표준 문서에서는 계층 2 전송 프로토콜인 RLC (Radio Link Control) 버퍼의 양만을 측정하여 무선 자원 할당이 제어가 되도록 권고하고 있다. 하지만 트래픽 양의 변화가 큰 VBR 트래픽의 경우, 이와 같은 방법은 갑자기 증가하거나 감소하는 트래픽 양에 적응하기 힘들고 이는 무선 자원의 효율성을 저하시키며, QoS 제공도 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 먼저 트래픽 특성을 알 수 있는 토큰 버켓 모델을 RLC에 적용하고, 동적 무선 자원 할당을 위해 RLC 버퍼의 양뿐만 아니라 예상되는 유입 트래픽 양을 측정 및 보고하는 메커니즘을 제안한다.

Due to the disadvantages of signature-based computer virus detection techniques, behavior-based detection methods have developed rapidly in recent years. However, current popular behavior-based detection methods only take API call sequences as program behavior features and the difference between API calls in the detection is not taken into consideration. This paper divides virus behaviors into separate function modules by introducing DLLs into detection. APIs in different modules have different importance. DLLs and APIs are both considered program calling resources. Based on the calling relationships between DLLs and APIs, program calling resources can be pictured as a tree named program behavior resource tree. Important block structures are selected from the tree as program behavior features. Finally, a virus detection model based on behavior the resource tree is proposed and verified by experiment which provides a helpful reference to virus detection.

The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and autophagy are two major degradative pathways of proteins in eukaryotic cells. As about 30% of newly synthesized proteins are known to be misfolded under normal cell conditions, the precise and timely operation of the UPS and autophagy to remove them as well as their tightly controlled regulation, is so important for proper cell function and survival. In the UPS, target proteins are labeled by small proteins called ubiquitin, which are then transported to the proteasome complex for degradation. Alternatively, many greatly damaged proteins are believed to be delivered to the lysosome for autophagic degradation. Although these autophagy and UPS pathways have not been considered to be directly related, many recent studies proposed their close link and dynamic interconversion. In this review, we'll focus on the several regulatory molecules that function in both UPS and autophagy and their crosstalk. Among the proposed multiple modulators, we will take a closer look at the so-called main connector of UPS-autophagy regulation, p62. Last, the functional role of p62 in the mitophagy and its implication for the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease, one of the major neurodegenerative diseases, will be briefly reviewed.

The combination of spatial latticed structures (hereafter SLS) and flexible cables, the cable-stayed spatial latticed structures (hereafter CSLS) can cross longer span. According to variation principle, a novel geometric nonlinear formulation for 3-D bar elements considering large displacement and infinitesimal rotation increments with second-order precision is developed. The cable nonlinearity is investigated and it is taken that the secant modulus method can be considered as an exact method for a cable member. The tower column with which the cables link is regarded as a special kind of beam element, and, a new simplified stiffness formulation is presented. The computational strategies for the nonlinear dynamic response of structures are given, and the ultimate load carrying capacities and seismic responses are analyzed numerically. It is noted that, compared with corresponding spatial latticed shells, the cable-stayed spatial latticed shells have more strength and more stiffness, and that the verical seismic responses of both CSLS and CLS are remarkably greater than the horizontal ones. In addition, the computation shows that the stiffness of tower column influences the performance of CSLS to a certain extent and the improvement of structural strength and stiffness of CSLS is relevant not only to cables but also to tower columns.

When eccentrically braced steel frames (EBFs) are in the desired failure mode, links yield at each layer and column bases appear plastically hinged. Traditional design methods cannot accurately predict the inelastic behavior of structures owing to the use of capacity-based design theory. This paper proposes the use of performance-based seismic design (PBSD) method for planning eccentrically braced frames. PBSD can predict and control inelastic deformation of structures by target drift and failure mode. In buildings designed via this process, all links dissipate energy in the rare event of an earthquake, while other members remain in elastic state, and as the story drift is uniform along the structure height, weak layers will be avoided. In this condition, eccentrically braced frames may be more easily rehabilitated after the effects of an earthquake. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated through a sample case study of ten-story K-type EBFs and Y- type EBFs buildings, and is validated by pushover analysis and dynamic analysis. The ultimate state of frames designed by the proposed method will fail in the desired failure mode. That is, inelastic deformation of structure mainly occurs in links; each layer of links involved dissipates energy, and weak layers do not exist in the structure. The PBSD method can provide a reference for structural design of eccentrically braced steel frames.

A majority of industrial robots are controlled by a simple joint servo control of joint actuators. In this type of control, the performance of control is greatly influenced by the joint interaction torques including Coriolis and centrifugal forces, which act as disturbance torques to the control system. As the speed of the robot increases, the effect of this disturbance torque increases, and hence makes the high speed - high precision control more difficult to achieve. In this paper, the joint disturbance torque of robots is analyzed. The joint disturbance torque is defined using the coefficients of dynamic equation of motion, and for the case of a 2 DOF planar robot, the conditions for the minimum and maximum joint disturbance torques are identified, and the effect of link parameters and joint variables on the joint disturbance torque are examined. Then, a solution to the optimal path placement problem is propose that minimizes the joint disturbance torque during a straight line motion. The proposed method is illustrated using computer simulation. The proposed solution method can be applied to a class of robots that are controlled by independent joint servo control, which includes the vast majority of industrial robots.

Experimental verification in the rig test stage for component development is a vital link between the aeromechanical design and structural integrity validation process. Based on this premise, Non-Intrusive Stress Measuring System was adopted on the axial compressor test rig to measure the static and dynamic tip deflection of all blades by using tip-timing sensors. Through analyzing vibration characteristics, we evaluated the vibratory stresses seen on the blades fatigue critical location; detected synchronous resonances which are the source of High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) in blades; presented non-synchronous vibration response by aerodynamic excitation and individual blade mis-tuning patterns.
