The purpose of this study is to figure out the tendency of tunnel convergence during excavation and to present a methodology for the prediction of a fault zone ahead of a tunnel face by analyzing three dimensional displacements in various ways. 3-D numerical analysis was performed to investigate changes of tunnel convergence vectors near a fault zone and to propose a flow chart for predicting fault zones. Results of the site investigation and results of trend line analysis of in-situ data were compared to verify the usefulness of a trend line analysis. It is concluded that the orientation of faults can be predicted by using stereonets and the direction of initial stresses can be predicted from the arm length of a displacement vector as a tunnel approaches fault zones. The results of the trend line analysis coincided with those of the site investigation, and a methodology for the prediction of a fault zone was proposed.

A total of 469 granitic samples were collected from 44 sites in the Ulsan fault area, southeast Korea. According to the previous petrographic studies, the granitic rocks have been divided into four groups (Hornblende biotite granodiorite, Hornblende granite, Biotite granite and Alkali-feldspar granite). NRM intensities, values of low field magnetic susceptibility, and magnetic behaviors during stepwise demagnetization experiments suggest rather a three-fold classification: In this scheme, Hornblende granite and Biotite granite are grouped together, as they did not show any significant differences in magnetic characteristics. Based on the Ishihara (1979)'s criterion, Alkali-feldspar granite is classified as ilmenite-series granite, whereas others are classified as magnetite-series granite. In the eastern part of the study area including the Tertiary basin area, declinations of site-mean characteristic remanent magnetizations (ChRMs) show clockwise deflection of more than 30 from the reference direction of east Asia. Both along and in the adjacent region of the Ulsan fault-line, however, no deflection of remanent direction was observed. A boundary line between the deflected and undeflected site-mean ChRMs is defined in this study, which runs roughly parallel to the Ulsan fault-line at the distance of about 6km eastward from the fault-line. We suggest that this newly found boundary line, which we call Yonil tectonic line, released dextral simple shear stress acted in the southeastern part of the Korean peninsula during the opening stage of the East Sea in the Early Cenozoic.

Because the distribution systems experience frequently the fault by several causes, the identification task of fault location plays very important role in the view point of power supply reliability. The distribution systems are designed as radial structure with three-phase and single-phase branch line to supply the electric power to the widely dispersed loads, and it have a several load taps within each line segment. it makes the accurate fault distance determination difficult. Accordingly in this papers, the existing fault point determination methods are surveyed and analyzed, and then a fault distance determination method for distribution feeder is adopted which can be executed effectively in DAS center. Finally, the adopted method is verified using EMTP simulation.

This paper presents a fault location algorithm for single-phase-to-ground faults on the teed circuit of a parallel transmission line. This algorithm uses only local end voltage and current information. Remote end and fault currents are calculated by using distribution factors. To reduce load current effect, negative sequence current is used. EMTP simulation result have shown effectiveness of the algorithm under various conditions.

The basic Principles and methods of the on-line monitoring of tribology parameters (friction coefficient and wear allowance) and fault diagnosis for the hoist disc brake system were introduced, the method were based on the spring force and oil pressure of the brake system and the hoist kinematics parameters. The experiment on the monitoring and diagnosis of hoist brake system were carried out. The research results showed: the monitoring and diagnosis methods are feasible.

It is important to catch or classify fault types by any detecting technique for distribution protection. This paper proposes the technique to classify the fault types using wavelet transform in radial distribution line. Modeling of the radial distribution line is simulated using PSCAD/EMTDC and wavelet transform is performed in the Matlab program.

This paper presents a distance protection algorithm a lied to the linked line for interconnecting wind farm with the utility. The capacity of wind farm is lower than utility system and its fault current level is very low. When a high resistance fault occurs in the linked line, it is difficult to detect accurate fault distance because of reactance effect. By using the characteristic of equivalent source impedance of induction generator which is compensated by capacitor bank and characteristic of the capacity of wind farm, this paper proposes improved distance protection algorithm applied to the linked line. A series of PSCAD/EMTDC simulation results have shown effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

A Remote Monitoring Server(RMS) server which uses Internet and World Wide Web is constructed for SMD in-line system. Hardware base consists of server computer, virtual SMD in-line system and other computers. Software includes assignment of server, RDBMS and various modules in server home page. Web browser provide production quantity, bad PCB quantity, error number and error message in virtual SMD module, user information in setup module, detailed error information in fault diagnosis module, fault history in fault history module and customer information in customer service management module. These functions of the RMS helps a decrease of non-operation time and a service response as fast as possible.

In this paper, we introduce a gaussian enveloped linear chirp signal that can change parameters for consideration of target material characteristics. Using the gaussian enveloped linear chirp signal, time-frequency domain reflectomety is able to detect fault location in power transmission line. we suggest design method of reference signal for power transmission line fault detection. This method is verified by locating fault in HIV low voltage power transmission line.

The Conventional approach for estimating the locations of transmission line shunt faults has been to measure the apparent impedance to the fault from a line terminal and to convert the reactive component of the impedance to line length. But, these methods do not adequately address the problems associated with the fault location on distribution systems. This thesis presents a technique that estimates the location of shunt fault on a radial distribution system that has several single and multiphase laterals. Tapped loads and non-homogenity of the distribution system are take into account. The developed technique, which can handle shunt faults was tested to evaluate its suitability. Results from computer simulation of faults on a model of a 25KV distribution lines like real system are presented. The results approved that the proposed technique works well for estimating the locations of the distribution line shunt faults.
