This paper presents a technique to evaluate torque and speed characteristics of induction motor with the Dynamometer. The simple Dynamometer controlled via microcontroller and displayed by computer. The Microcontroller generates the PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) signal and control the duty cycle of signal for control braking level. The Buck converter is a braking unit which uses IGBT as switch in circuit. The output current of the Buck converter and output voltage of tacho generator are converted to digital signals and analyzed by microcontroller. The signals are then sent to computer for displaying torque and speed responds independent on the braking time. The test results of the Dynamometer in this research can coreectly predict the torque and speed response under reasonable tests. Moreover, this Dynamometer is easy and inexpensive to make.

The aim of the work described in this paper is to develop a complex underground acoustic system which detects and localizes the origin of an underground hammering sound using an array of hydrophones located about loom underground. Three different methods for the sound localization will be presented, a time-delay method, a power-attenuation method and a hybrid method. In the time-delay method, the cross correlation of the signals received from the array of sensors is used to calculate the time delays between those signals. In the power-attenuation method, the powers of the received signals provide a measure of the distances of the source from the sensors. In the hybrid method, both informations of time-delays and power-ratios are coupled together to produce better performance of position estimation. A new acoustic imaging technique has been developed for improving the hybrid method. This new acoustic imaging method shows the multi-dimensional distribution of the normalized cost function, so as to indicate the trend of the minimizing direction toward the source location. For each method the sound localization is carried out in three dimensions underground. The distance between the true and estimated origins of the source is 28m for a search area of radius 250m.

While the z-transform method is a basic mathematical tool to relate the signals only at the sampling instants in analyzing and designing sampled-data control systems, the modified z-transform which is a variation of the z-transform is widely used to represent the details of continuous signals between the sampling instants. Regarding the modified z-transform method, some properties were established to relate the modified z-transform to the regular z-transform. This paper will show that these properties, in their current forms, cause some analytic problems, when they are applied to the signals with discontinuities at the sampling instants, which accordingly limit their applications significantly. In this paper, those analytic problems will be investigated, and the theorems of the modified z-transform will be revised by adopting a new notation so that those can be correctly interpreted and used without any analytic problems in the analysis of sampled data systems. Also some useful schemes of applying the modified z-transform will be developed.

Acquiring instrumentation signals generated from nuclear power plants (NPPs) is essential to maintain nuclear reactor integrity or to mitigate an abnormal state under normal operating conditions or severe accident circumstances. However, various safety-critical instrumentation signals from NPPs cannot be accurately measured on account of instrument degradation or failure under severe accident circumstances. Reactor vessel (RV) water level, which is an accident monitoring variable directly related to reactor cooling and prevention of core exposure, was predicted by applying a few signals to deep neural networks (DNNs) during severe accidents in NPPs. Signal data were obtained by simulating the postulated loss-of-coolant accidents at hot- and cold-legs, and steam generator tube rupture using modular accident analysis program code as actual NPP accidents rarely happen. To optimize the DNN model for RV water level prediction, a genetic algorithm was used to select the numbers of hidden layers and nodes. The proposed DNN model had a small root mean square error for RV water level prediction, and performed better than the cascaded fuzzy neural network model of the previous study. Consequently, the DNN model is considered to perform well enough to provide supporting information on the RV water level to operators.

This paper proposes a new approach of plant fault diagnosis which is based on detecting the characteristic pattern signals and associating them with the corresponding faults. The new approach does not require analytic modeling of the target system but best reflects the expertise embedded in the experienced human operation by mimicking them in a systematic way. This paper intends to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed by developing the algorithms to detect and estimate the typical characteristic pattern signals, I. e., oscillatory patterns, and applying them to the diagnosis of various faults of a 500MW boiler control system including tube rupture, feed-water leak, and controller failure.

Noise from electronic instrumentation is invariably present in biomedical signals, although the art of instrumentation design is such that this noise source may be negligible. And sometimes signals of interest are contaminated or degraded by signals of similar type from another source. Biomedical signals are omni-presently contaminated by these background noises that span nearly all frequency bandwidths. In the magneto-cardiogram (MCG), several digital filters have been designed for the elimination of the power-line interference, broadband white noise, surrounding magnetic noise, and baseline wondering. In addition to the introduced FIR filter, notch, adaptive filter using the least mean square (LMS) algorithm, and recurrent neural network (RNN) filter, a new filtering method for effective noise canceling in MCG signals is proposed in this paper, which is realized by the wavelet packets. The experimental results show that the proposed filter using wavelet packet performs efficiently with respect to noise rejection. To verify this, two characteristics were analyzed and compared with LMS adaptive filter, SNR of filtered signal and attractor pattern using the nonlinear dynamics.

The aim of the work described in this paper is to develop a complex underground acoustic system which detects and localizes the origin of an underground hammering sound using an array of hydrophones located about 100m underground. Three different methods for the sound localization will be presented, a time-delay method, a power-attenuation method and a hybrid method. In the time-delay method, the cross correlation of the signals received from the array of sensors is used to calculate the time delays between those signals. In the power-attenuation method, the powers of the received signals provide a measure of the distances of the source from the sensors. In the hybrid method, both informations of time-delays and power-ratios are coupled together to produce better performance of position estimation.

본 논문에서는 원전 비상 상황 발생 시 다수의 신호 오류가 발생했을 때 어떤 신호에 오류가 발생했는지를 추정하는 신호 오류 식별 (Fault identification) 방법론을 개발하였다. 변분 오토인 코더 (Variational autoencoder; VAE) 기반 모델은 기존의 이상 탐지 방법론과 같이 정상 신호 데이터만을 이용하여 훈련이 진행되며, 이후 각 신호에 대한 복원 오차 (Reconstruction error)와 복원 오차를 입력의 특정 부분으로 미분한 값을 이용하여 어떤 부분에 오류가 포함되어 있는지를 예측한다. 데이터 취득을 위하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 일련의 실험으로부터 제시한 신호 오류 식별 방법이 적절한 오차 범위 내에서 오류가 발생한 신호를 특정할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In this paper, we developed a fuzzy identification system to evaluate sensation of equilibrium objectively and quantitatively. By using caloric test. we estimated ECG(electro-cardiogram) and EOG(electro-oculogram), which were biomedical signals related to sensation of equilibrium, and used them as inputs of fuzzy identification system input. Fuzzy identification system analyzed the relationality between biomedical signals and sensation of equilibrium automatically, and evaluated it taking the co-relation between these signals into consideration.
