Recently, as the environmental regulation for earth moving equipment has been tightened, advanced systems using electronic control have been introduced for energy savings. An IMV(Independent Metering Valve), which consists of four 2-way valves, is one of the electro-hydraulic control systems that provides more flexible controllability and potential for energy savings in excavators, when compared to the conventional 4-way spool valve system. To fully realize an IMV, a two-stage bi-directional flow control valve which can regulate the large amount of flow in both directions, should be developed in advance. A simple design that allows proportional flow control to apply the pilot pressure from the current-controlled solenoid to the spring loaded flow control spool and thus valve displacement, is proportional to the solenoid current. However, this open-loop type valve is vulnerable to flow force which directly affects the valve displacement. Force feedback servo of which the position loop is closed by the feedback spring which interconnects the solenoid valve and flow control spool, could compensate for the flow force. In this study, linearity for the solenoid current input and robustness against load pressure disturbance is investigated by linear analysis of the static nonlinear equations for the IMV proportional flow control valve with feedback spring. Gains of the linear system confirm the performance improvement with the feedback spring design.

Course keeping is hard to implement under the condition of the propeller stopping or reversing at slow speed for berthing due to the ship's dynamic motion becoming highly nonlinear. To solve this problem, a practical Maneuvering Modeling Group (MMG) ship mathematic model with propeller reversing transverse forces and low speed correction is first discussed to be applied for the right-handed single-screw ship. Secondly, a novel PID-based nonlinear feedback algorithm driven by bipolar sigmoid function is proposed. The PID parameters are determined by a closed-loop gain shaping algorithm directly, while the closed-loop gain shaping theory was employed for effects analysis of this algorithm. Finally, simulation experiments were carried out on an LPG ship. It is shown that the energy consumption and the smoothness performance of the nonlinear feedback control are reduced by 4.2% and 14.6% with satisfactory control effects; the proposed algorithm has the advantages of robustness, energy saving and safety in berthing practice.

The on-the-fly energy release per fission (OTFK) model is implemented in STREAM to continuously update the Kappa values during the depletion calculation. The explicit neutron and photon energy distribution, which has not been considered in previous STREAM versions, is incorporated into the existing on-the-fly model. The impacts of the modified OTFK model with explicit neutron and photon heating in STREAM on the power distribution, fuel temperature, and other core parameters during depletion with feedback calculations are studied using several problems from the VERA benchmark suit. Overall, the explicit heating calculation provides a better power map for the feedback calculations particularly when strong gamma emitters are present. Generally, the fuel temperature decreases when neutron and photon heating is employed because fission neutrons and gamma rays are transported away from their points of generation. This energy release model in STREAM indicates that gamma energy accounts for approximately 9.5%-10% of the total energy released, and approximately 2.4%-2.6% of the total energy released will be deposited in the coolant for the VERA 5, NuScale, and Yonggwang Unit 3 2D cores.

무선 주파수 에너지 전송에 있어 최적의 전처리 기법으로 알려진 전-디지털 에너지 빔포밍은 벡터 양자화를 사용하므로 채널 피드백 부담이 크다. 이러한 피드백 부담을 줄이기 위해 스칼라 양자화를 사용해 채널을 피드백하는 빔 조향 기반의 에너지 전송 기술을 고려할 수 있다. 현재까지의 빔 조향 기반의 에너지 전송 기술에 대한 연구는 특수한 채널 환경 및 기지국이 채널 정보를 완벽히 알고 있는 상황에서 진행되었다. 본 논문에서는 현실성을 반영한 채널 모델을 사용하고 채널 추정 오차가 있는 환경에서 빔 조향 기법을 전-디지털 에너지 빔포밍과 비교하여 성능을 분석하였다. 모의실험을 통해 채널 환경, 기지국과 단말의 안테나 수 및 상호 간의 거리, 그리고 채널 추정 오차에 따른 성능을 확인하고 그 원인을 분석한다.

본 논문에서는 제한된 피드백 정보를 사용하는 공간 다중화 기법에 사용될 수 있는 부 공간 방식 기반 preceding 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 preceding 기법은 수신기에서 다수의 공통 기저 집합(common basis sets)으로부터 용량을 최대로 하는 기저들을 선택하고, 선택된 기저들은 feedback 정보를 통해 송신기에 전달되고, 송신기에서는 선택된 기저들로 이루어진 precoding 행렬을 구성한다. 선택된 기저들은 해당 기저들이 속한 기저 집합의 index에 대한 feedback 정의와 선택된 기저 집합에서 각 기저들의 선택 여부에 대한 feedback 정보를 통해 송신기로 feedback된다. 선택된 기저 집합 index는 송수신기가 약속한 공통 기저 집합중에서 해당 MIMO 채널의 부 공간의 좌표(coordinate)에 가장 적합한 좌표를 나타내고, 해당 좌표에서 상당한 양의 에너지를 포함하는 기저들을 선택함으로써 적은 feedback 정보량으로 MIMO 채널을 묘사하다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 부 공간 방식 기반 precoding 기법이 적은 feedback 정보량을 사용하면서 폐루프 MIMO 용량 (closed-loop MIMO capacity)에 근접하는 용량을 제공함을 보인다.

부유식 진동수주형 파력발전기는 불규칙한 해상 상태에서의 작동으로 인하여 흡수효율의 저하를 필수적으로 수반한다. 본 논문에서는 입사파의 에너지를 적절히 흡수할 수 있는 파력발전기를 초기설계하여 모델로 이용하였으며, 이 모델의 유체력추정에는 3차원 특이점 분포법을 사용하였다. 그리고, 가변구조 시스템으로 알려진 슬라이딩 모드기법을 이용하여 파의 상태 변화에 따른 파력발전기의 자세와 위치를 제어함으로써 흡수파력의 효율을 중대시킬 수 있는 시스템을 제안하고 있다.

In this paper, the Superconductor flywheel energy storage system (SFESS) was used for the load frequency control (LFC) of an interconnected 2 area power system. The robust SFESS controller using quantitative feedback theory (QFT) was designed to improve control performance in spite of parameter uncertainty and unexpected disturbances. An overlapping decomposition method was applied to simplify SFESS controller design for the interconnected 2 area power system. The model for simulation of the interconnected 2 area power system included the reheat steam turbine, governor, boiler dynamics and nonlinearity such as governor deadband and generation rate constraint (GRC). To verify robust performance of proposed SFESS controller, dynamic simulation was performed under various disturbances and parameters variation of power system. The results showed that the proposed SFESS controller was more robust than the conventional method.

In this study, we investigated the effect of aerosol feedback on $PM_{10}$ simulation using a two-way coupled air quality model (WRF-CMAQ). $PM_{10}$ concentration over Korea in January 2014 was simulated, and the aerosol feedback effect on the simulated solar radiation was intensively examined. Two $PM_{10}$ simulations were conducted using the WRF-CMAQ model with (FB) and without(NFB) the aerosol feedback option. We find that the simulated solar radiation in the west part of Korea decreased by up to $-80MJ/m^2$ due to the aerosol feedback effect. The feedback effect was significant in the west part of Korea, showing high $PM_{10}$ estimates due to dense emissions and its long-range transport from China. The aerosol feedback effect contributed to the decreased rRMSE(relative Root Mean Square Error) for solar radiation (47.58% to 30.75%). Aerosol feedback effect on the simulated solar radiation was mainly affected by concentration of $PM_{10}$. Moreover, FB better matched the observed solar radiation and $PM_{10}$ concentration than NFB, implying that taking into account the aerosol direct effects resulted in the improved modeling performance. These results indicate that aerosol feedback effects can play an important role in the simulation of solar radiation over Korean Peninsula.

The spherical CVT, intended to overcome some of the limitations of existing CVT designs, is marked by its simple kinematic design, improved efficiency of the shift actuator, and IVT characteristics, i.e., the ability of smooth transition between the forward, neutral, and reverse states without the need for any brakes or clutches. And it has been promised much possibility of energy savings and various applications for small power capacity machinery. Due to the nonlinearity of the spherical CVT shifting dynamics, however the original open-loop system is inherently unstable. Hence a feedback controller is necessary to make the system stable and to achieve effective tracking performance. To do this, we designed a feedback controller that cancels nonlinearities and transforms the original nonlinear system dynamics into a stable and controllable linear one, based on the input-state linearization method.

As photovoltaic(PV) power generation systems become more common, it will be necessary to investigate islanding detection method for PV systems. Islanding of PV systems can cause a variety of problems and must be prevented. However, if the real and reactive power of load and PV system are closely matched, islanding detection by passive methods becomes difficult. Also, most active methods lose effectiveness when there are several PV systems feeding the same island. The active frequency drift positive feedback method(AFDPF) enables islanding detection by forcing the frequency of the voltage in the island to drift up or down. In this paper the research for the minimum value of chopping fraction gain applied digital phase-locked-loop(DPLL) to AFDPF considering output power quality and islanding prevention performance are performed by simulation and experiment in IEEE Std 929-2000 islanding test.
