The load flow calculation is one of the most critical issues in electrical power systems. Generally, load flow has been calculated by Gauss-Seidel method and Newton-Raphson method but these methods have some problems such as non-convergence due to heavy load and initial value. In this paper, to overcome such problems, the power flow is calculated by genetic algorithm. At the heavy load, the solution for problem can not be obtained by the Newton-Raphson method. However, it can be solved in case of using genetic algorithm. In this paper, the strong point of this method would be demonstrated in application to an example system.

The district heating users can be generally classified into two groups such as apartments and buildings. In consideration that the time zone of the maximum heat load for apartments is different from those of buildings during a day, the maximum heat supply range is presented. In case of the investigated area, the maximum heat supply is occurred at the ratio between apartments and buildings that is 65%：35%. Thus the heat supply range is increased as much as 15% if the time zone when the maximum heat load is occurred is considered.

An epicyclic gearing system is compact and lightweight. However, it is difficult to share the driving force equally because the system has closed gear trains with multiple driving points, and it always has geometrical errors in the elements. Thus, in the case of planetary gears, the first problem is how to distribute the load evenly to the numerous planets. The method widely used abroad for this purpose is to utilize the elastic deformation of the components of the structure. However, the deflection is very complicated, and it is very easy for vibration problems to occur because of the decrease in the natural frequencies. Therefore, to equalize the load on the planets, this paper discusses the principle and theory behind the functioning of a floating intermediate ring. This magnifies the displacement of a planet's center arising from the equilibrium of the load and the lubricating film pressure, which improves the compliance of the planets. The results show that load equalization of the planets is possible through this improvement in their compliance.

This study deals with the effect of a series of moving trucks on the Dynamic Load Factor (DLF). The DLF is calculated by investigating the load effect of moving trucks. Therefore, analytical models for frocks, bridge, and road profiles were developed and dynamic structural analysis computer program were developed. Then the DLFs are calculated as a ratio of maximum dynamic load effect and maximum static load effect. Trucks used in this study are 5 axle semi tractor-trailer with the weight of 36 and 54 ton. Simply supported prestressed concrete box girder bridges with 20 and 40m span length are selected. From the results of the DLF for various headway distances, they show a very scattered and relatively high values of the DLF in case of a 20m span length bridge. For a 40m span length bridge, the results show less scattered and small increase of the DLF compared to a 20m span length bridge.

This paper suggests a long-term distribution area load forecasting algorithm which offers basic data for distribution planning of power system. To build forecasting model, 4-level hierarchical spatial structure is introduced: System, Region, Area, and Substation. And, each spatial load can be decided proportional to its portion in the higher level. This paper introduces the horizon year loads to improve the forecasting results. And, this paper also introduces an effective load transfer algorithm to improve forecasting stability in case of new or stopped substations. The proposed model is applied to the load forecasting of KEPCO system composed of 16 regions, 85 areas and 761 substations, and the results are compared with those of econometrics model to verify its validity.

The leak-before-break (LBB) behaviors of a structural component under high and low fatigue loads are an important problem in nuclear power plants, liquid nitrogen gas tankers and chemical plants. This paper is an experimental study to evaluate the crack opening behavior after penetration for plate and pipe specimens. Crack opening displacement after penetration under low fatigue load could be satisfactorily determined at the center of the plate thickness regardless of the specimen size. In the case of high fatigue load, it is shown that the crack opening displacement at the center of a penetrated crack carl be derived using the gross stress, $\sigma$/sug G/, and the front surface crack length, a$\_$s/, together with the back surface crack length, a$\_$b/.

BIPV or double skin applied to the surface of the building, power and thermal load cannot both be increased. In the case of BIPV, because it is applied to the facade, incident solar energy decreases and efficiency drops off. The system in this paper complements these disadvantages and aims to decrease the heating & cooling load by transforming solar energy to electronic and thermal energy. The research in this paper is about the applicability of the clear PV attached double-skin system. And the PV electronic generation and the factors that affect the heating & cooling load such as the daily radiation, sun shading ratio, heating & cooling load, daylight luminance and glare distributions in the building are simulated.

In the case of railway freight, there's a lot of process at railway freight terminal. In these days, for operation efficiency improvement, Load/Unload planning is being carried out research. Load/unload problem can be classified as track assignment, container assignment, yard truck route problem, unload equipment scheduling, container yard plan. In this paper, we focus on track assignment and container assignment among the load/unload problem. we analysis information architecture to solve this problem. And we compares two precesses for existing method and optimization method of track/container assignment processes. An contents different analysis of two methods can shows reformation of an information architecture for load/unload process in the railway freight terminal.

This study proposes a method for evaluating composite power system effective load duration curve(CMELDC) al load points. The concept of ELDC in power system planning is very useful and important in HLI as well as HLII. Effective load duration curve of composite power system can be obtained from convolution integral processing or both probability function of unarrival power and load duration curve at load points. The characteristics and effectiveness of this methodology arc illustrated by case studyings of simple system.

The present article is aimed at an investigation of stresses produced in a microstretch elastic half-space due to a moving load. The expressions of normal stress, shear stress and tangential couple stress produced in this case have been obtained in closed form. To find the displacement fields the perturbation method is applied. Significant effect of moving load on variation of stresses developed at different depths below the surface due to the depth of substrate and frictional coefficient of the rough surface of the medium has been observed. The effects of different shapes of irregularity and depth of irregularity on normal, shear and tangential couple stresses have been discussed. Some particular cases have also been deduced from the present investigation. Finally, the analytical developments have been illustrated numerically for aluminium-epoxy-like material substrate under the action of moving load.
