The computer network plays an important role in modern digital controllers within a safety system of a nuclear power plant. For the reliable and realtime data communication between controllers, this paper proposes a modified high-reliable MVB(multi-function vehicle bus) as a main control network for a safety system of a nuclear power plant. The proposed network supports the state-based communication in order to ensure the deterministic communication latency, and very fast network recovery when the bus master fails compare to the standard MVB. This paper also shows the implementation results using a FPGA-based testbed.

본 논문은 무인항공기의 한 종류인 쿼드로터의 고장허용 제어기를 제안한다. 라그랑지안 방정식을 이용하여 쿼드로터를 모델링하고 인접한 두 로터가 작동하지 않는 경우에 쿼드로터에 작용하는 힘을 고려한다. 두 로터가 작동하지 않는 경우에 몸체의 평형을 유지하기 위한 고장허용 제어기를 제안하고, 리아프노프 정리에 입각하여 제안한 제어기를 입력한 경우 쿼드로터가 점근적으로 안정하게 되는 것을 보인다. 두 로터가 작동하지 않는 쿼드로터에 제안한 제어기를 입력하여 모의실험을 시행하고, 이를 통해 제어기의 우수성을 입증한다.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are comprised of sensor nodes that forward data in the shape of packets inside a network. Proficient packet forwarding is a prerequisite in sensor networks since many tasks in the network, together with redundancy evaluation and localization, depend upon the methods of packet forwarding. With the motivation to develop a fault tolerant packet forwarding scheme a Self-Localized Packet Forwarding Algorithm (SLPFA) to control redundancy in WSNs is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm infuses the aspects of the gossip protocol for forwarding packets and the end to end performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated for different values of node densities in the same deployment area by means of simulations.

Chopper and sensors failures resulting from electric shock and mechanical vibration generated by rail irregularities are the serious problem deteriorating the performance in the electromagnetic suspension systems. Thus, this paper proposes a reliable output feedback control scheme for the electromagnetic suspension systems in the present of chopper, gap sensor and acceleration sensor failures. The designed controller is an extended version of a novel design technique which has the design method of the output feedback controller using dynamic compensator. The benefits of this scheme are demonstrated through the simulation and experimental results for proposed controller against chopper, gap sensor and acceleration sensor failures of electromagnetic suspension system.

A graphic display and operator console system is developed for monitoring the operation of power plant. It has multiprocessor structure using VME bus and common memory. The graphic monitoring system is applied to fault tolerant control system for enhancing reliability of boiler analog controller. As a result, it displays all the operating date as color graphic images with 14 pages. Moreover, it can transfer the operator commands to the other micro-processors through common memory.

본 논문은 점차 성장하고 있는 전동기를 이용한 교통수단으로써의 전기 자전거에 적용된 위치 센서인 홀 센서의 고장 검출을 위한 방법 제시와 고장 회피를 위한 방법을 제시한다. 전동기를 응용한 전기 자전거, 전기 스쿠터, 전기 자동차, 전기 보트 등 다양한 분야에서 전동기의 사용이 점차 넓어지고 있지만 현재는 전동기의 구동 및 제어의 관점에서만 다루어 지고 있는 실정이다. 하지만 전동기의 구동 보다 더 중요한 문제는 사람을 운송하는 분야이기 때문에 높은 구동 안정성이 요구 되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 전기 자전거에 적용된 홀 센서의 고장의 종류에 대해 검토하고 고장으로 판단 한 이후 정상적인 구동이 가능 할 수 있도록 센서리스 구동으로의 전환이 가능 하도록 하였다. 이를 모의 실험과 실험을 통해 타당성을 검증 하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 Carrier-Based Pulse Width Modulation(CBPWM)을 사용한 Active Neutral Point Clamped (ANPC) 인버터의 안정적인 고장 허용 운전을 위한 중성점 전압 균형 제어 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 ANPC 인버터를 구성하고 있는 전력 반도체 스위치의 고장으로 인한 고장 허용 운전 시, 출력 특성이 저하되는 문제점을 해결하기 위해 스위칭 조합의 재구성과 기준 출력전압의 변조를 통한 중성점 전압 균형을 유지한다. 제안된 기법의 타당성은 RT-BOX를 통한 HIL 시뮬레이터를 이용하여 확인하였다.

The Gamma Network contains the redundant path thereby is provides the ability to tolerate the faults occured. However, in case of identical the source and destination number, only a single path exists, therefore there is no way of connecting for the fault situation. In addition, for the dynamic packet routing strategy, it shoed perform backtracking analysis to find the redundant path. In this paper we proposed a new network, Dual Network, to resolve these drawbacks. The Dual Network uses switching elements about the same network size as the Gamma Network except first and last stage, and it is more efficient than the Gamma Network, for it has reduced the switching stage by one. And since is used a destination tag routing scheme for the control algorithm, it has on advantage of becoming of simpler and faster routing control.

Magnetic Suspension and Balance System (MSBS) demonstrates the capacity to levitate an experimental model absent any mechanical contact using magnetic forces and moments. It allows precise control of position and attitude of the model, and measures external forces and moments acting on the model. For the purpose of acquisition of reliable experimental results under stable and safe conditions, the performance and robustness of the position and attitude control system of MSBS needs to be improved. To this end, Iterative Feedback Tuning (IFT) and L1 adaptive output feedback algorithm were employed to automatically increase command following performance and to ensure robust operation of MSBS with failure of electric power supply. The applicability was validated using computational simulation.

The traditional robot manipulators are actuated by continuous range of motion actuators such as motors or hydraulic cylinders. However, there are many applications of mechanisms and robotic manipulators where only a finite number of locations need to be reached, and the robot’s trajectory is not important as long as it is bounded. Binary manipulator uses actuators which have only two stable states. As a result, binary manipulators have a finite number of states. The number of states of a binary manipulator grows exponentially with the number of actuators. This kind of robot manipulator has some advantage compared to a traditional one. Feedback control is not required, task repeatability can be very high, and finite state actuators are generally inexpensive. And this kind of robot manipulator has a fault tolerant mechanism because of kinematic redundancy. In this paper, we solve the inverse kinematic problem of a binary parallel robot manipulator using neural network and test the validity of this structure using some arbitrary points m the workspace of the robot manipulator. As a result, we can show that the neural network can find the nearest feasible points and corresponding binary states of the joints of the robot manipulator
