Flow duration curve (FDC) can be developed by linking the daily flow data of stream flow monitoring network to 8-day interval flow data of the unit watersheds for the management of Total Maximum Daily Loads. This study investigated the applicable method for the development of long term FDC with the selection of the stream flow reference sites, and suggested the development of the FDC in 4 river basins. Out of 142 unit watersheds in 4 river basins, 107 unit watersheds were shown to estimate daily flow data for the unit watersheds from 2006 to 2010. Short term FDC could be developed in 64 unit watersheds (45%) and long term FDC in 43 unit watersheds (30%), while other 35 unit watersheds (25%) were revealed to have difficulties in the development of FDC itself. Limits in the development of the long term FDC includes no stream monitoring sites in certain unit watersheds, short duration of stream flow data set and missing data by abnormal water level measurements on the stream flow monitoring sites. To improve these limits, it is necessary to install new monitoring sites in the required areas, to keep up continuous monitoring and make normal water level observations on the stream flow monitoring sites, and to build up a special management system to enhance data reliability. The development of long term FDC for the unit watersheds can be established appropriately with the normal and durable measurement on the selected reference sites in the stream flow monitoring network.

Buckling failure is a typical slope instability mode that should be paid more attention to. It is difficult to provide systematic guidance for the monitoring and management of such slopes due to unclear mechanism. Here we examine buckling failure as the potential instability mode for a slope above a railway tunnel in southwest China. A comprehensive model test system was developed that can be used to conduct buckling failure experiments. The displacement, stress, and strain of the slope were monitored to document the evolution of buckling failure during the experiment. Monitoring data reveal the deformation and stress characteristics of the slope with different slipping mass thicknesses and under different top loads. The test results show that the slipping mass is the main subject of the top load and is the key object of monitoring. Displacement and stress precede buckling failure, so maybe useful predictors of impending failure. However, the response of the stress variation is earlier than displacement variation during the failure process. It is also necessary to monitor the bedrock near the slip face because its stress evolution plays an important role in the early prediction of instability. The position near the slope foot is most prone to buckling failure, so it should be closely monitored.

The electric utility has the responsibility of reducing the impact of peaks on electricity demand and related costs. Therefore, they have introduced Direct Load Control System (DLCS) to automate the external control of shedding customer load that it controls. Since the number of customer load participating in the DLC program are keep increasing, DLCS operators a re facing difficulty in monitoring and controlling customer load. The existing DLCS needs constant operator intervention, e.g., whenever the load is about to exceed a predefined amount, it needs operator's intervention to control the on/off status of the load. Therefore, DLCS operators need the state-of-the-art DLCS, which can control automatically the on/off status of the customer load without intervention as much as possible. This paper presents an intelligent DLCS using the active database. The proposed DLCS is applying the active database to DLCS which can avoid operator's intervention as much as possible. To demonstrate the validity of the proposed system, variable production rules and intelligent demand controller are presented.

Development and application of structural health monitoring system in Korea have become active since the early 1990's. In earlier applications, health monitoring systems were installed in several existing bridges in order to collect initial field data by full scale load capacity test for design verification and subsequently monitor long-term performance and durability of the bridge as part of an inspection and maintenance program. Recently, modem and integrated monitoring systems have been introduced in most of the newly constructed long-span bridges since the design stage. This paper outlines the progresses and applications of monitoring systems in Korea for both existing and newly constructed bridges and describes their aims and characteristics.

This paper presents a low-cost prototype for monitoring online the maximum power produced by a domestic photovoltaic (PV) system using Internet of Things (IoT) technology. The most common tracking algorithms (P&O, InCond, HC, VSS InCond, and FL) were first simulated using MATLAB/Simulink and then implemented in a low-cost microcontroller (Arduino). The current, voltage, load current, load voltage, power at the maximum power point, duty cycle, module temperature, and in-plane solar irradiance are monitored. Using IoT technology, users can check in real time the change in power produced by their installation anywhere and anytime without additional effort or cost. The designed prototype is suitable for domestic PV applications, particularly at remote sites. It can also help users check online whether any abnormality has happened in their system based simply on the variation in the produced maximum power. Experimental results show that the system performs well. Moreover, the prototype is easy to implement, low in cost, saves time, and minimizes human effort. The developed monitoring system could be extended by integrating fault detection and diagnosis algorithms.

마할라노비스 거리 이론에 기초한 통계적 패턴 인식 기술은 안정된 외부하중에 대한 구조물 상태 평가에 대한 유용성에도 불구하고 지진과 같이 큰 변동성의 외부하중에 대한 구조물의 건전도 모니터링에는 취약하다. 손상은 일반적으로 손상되지 않은 구조물의 측정된 값의 평균과 손상된 구조물의 측정값 사이의 차이에 의해 결정된다. 외부 하중의 변동성이 커질수록 더 큰 차이가 발생하고, 이는 손상으로 인식되기 쉽다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 극복하고 불확실한 외부 하중을 받는 구조물을 지속적으로 모니터링 할 수 있도록 외부 변동성을 감소시키기 위해 마할라노비스 거리 이론을 수정한 통계적 패턴 인식 기술인 개선된 마할라노비스 거리 이론을 개발하였다. 이 방법은 일반적인 임의의 하중과 지진하중에서 정확하게 사장교의 건전도를 평가하는 것을 실험적으로 확인 하였다. 그 결과, IMDT는 손상되지 않은 케이블로부터 획득한 데이터로 손상된 케이블에 의한 구조물의 손상을 파악하는 데 유효한 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 변동성을 지닌 외부하중에 의한 교량의 건전도 모니터링에 효과적으로 적용할 수 있음을 입증하였다.

자연하천에서의 유사량 계측은 하천공학적으로 중요한 의미를 가지지만 계측 방법의 비용 문제로 유사량 실측에 어려움이 따른다. 특히 소류사량 계측의 어려움으로 인해 주기적인 유사량 모니터링의 대부분이 부유사 농도 계측에만 제한되어 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에는 자동유량관측소에 설치된 횡방향 도플러 유속계(H-ADCP)의 후방산란값과 부유사 농도의 상관관계를 이용해 실시간으로 부유사 농도를 산정하고 총유사량을 산정하는 서포트벡터회귀 모형을 제안한다. 제안하는 실시간 총유사량 모니터링 시스템은 부유사 농도 모형과 수정 아인슈타인 방법을 모사하는 총유사량 산정 모형으로 구성된다. 각 모형의 매개변수와 입력변수는 K겹 교차검증 기반 격자검색 방법과 재귀적 특징 제거법을 이용해 결정되었다. 교차검증에서 부유사 농도 모형과 총유사량 산정 모형의 R²가 각각 0.885와 0.860으로 유사량-유량 관계곡선에 비해 정확한 것으로 나타났다. 시계열 유사량 관측을 통해 새로 제시되는 실시간 총유사량 관측 시스템이 자연하천에서 발달하는 유사량-유량 이력관계와 미세한 유량 변화에서 나타나는 유사량 변화를 성공적으로 관측할 수 있음을 확인했다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 방법은 마찰경사나 부유사 입도 등의 수리 조건을 가정할 필요 없이 H-ADCP의 원시자료만으로 부유사 농도와 총유사량을 산정할 수 있어 기존 방법에 비해 불확도가 적으며 경제적이다. 본 방법은 H-ADCP가 설치된 유사량 관측소에 광범위하게 적용 가능해 유사량 모니터링의 시간적 해상도를 경제적으로 크게 줄일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

An induction motor is one of the most popular electrical apparatuses owing to its simple structure and robust construction. Parameter identification of the induction motor has long been researched either for a vector control technique or fault detection. Since vector control is a well-established technique for induction motor control, this paper concentrates on successive identification of physical parameters with on-load data for the purpose of condition monitoring and/or fault detection. For extracting six physical parameters from the on-load data in the framework of the induction motor state equation, unmeasured initial state values and profiles of load torque have to be estimated as well. However, the analytic optimization methods in general fail to estimate these auxiliary but significant parameters owing to the difficulty of obtaining their gradient information. In this paper, the univariate dynamic encoding algorithm for searches (uDEAS) newly developed is applied to the identification of whole unknown parameters in the mathematical equations of an induction motor with normal operating data. Profiles of identified parameters appear to be reasonable and therefore the proposed approach is available for fault diagnosis of induction motors by monitoring physical parameters.
