In order to let a wind generator (WG) support the frequency control of a power system, a conventional inertial control algorithm using the rate of change of frequency (ROCOF) and frequency deviation loops was suggested. The ROCOF loop is prevailing at the initial stage of the disturbance, but the contribution becomes smaller as time goes on. Moreover, its contribution becomes negative after the frequency rebound. This paper proposes an inertial control algorithm of a wind power plant (WPP) using the maximum ROCOF and frequency deviation loops. The proposed algorithm replaces the ROCOF loop in the conventional inertial control algorithm with the maximum ROCOF loop to retain the maximum value of the ROCOF and eliminate the negative effect after the frequency rebound. The algorithm releases more kinetic energy both before and after the frequency rebound and increases the frequency nadir more than the conventional ROCOF and frequency loops. The performance of the algorithm was investigated under various wind conditions in a model system, which includes a doubly-fed induction generator-based WPP using an EMTP-RV simulator. The results indicate that the algorithm can improve the frequency drop for a disturbance by releasing more kinetic energy.

This paper proposes an efficient under frequency relay load shedding scheme for the korea power system which is more than two times than the system size and its capacity of the power system 10 years ago. The proposed method is keeping the power system stability and supports for the operating system during critical situations such as big disturbances and unstable in supply and demand. In order to determine the number of load shedding steps, the load to be shed per step, and frequency level, it is necessary to investigate and analyze maximum losses of generation due to the biggest contingency, maximum system overload, maximum keeping frequency, maximum load to be shed, and recovery frequency. The proposed method is applied to Off-peak load(25,400MW) and Peak load(62,290MW) of Korea Electric Power Corporation to demonstrate its effectiveness.

The maximum Doppler frequency, or equivalently, the mobile speed is very useful information to optimize the performance of many wireless communication systems. However, the performance of a maximum Doppler frequency estimator is limited since it requires an estimate of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the channel environment. In this paper, the improved method for the maximum Doppler frequency estimations based on the decision feedback Doppler adaptive band-limit (DF-DABL) method is proposed. To reduce the effect of additive noise, the proposed algorithm uses a novel Doppler adaptive band-limit (DABL) technique. The distortion due to the additive noise is drastically removed by the proposed DF-DABL method. Especially, the DF-DABL method does not need any other channel information such as SNR.

An experimental study was conducted on the effect of compressor capacity control range of heat pump on the seasonal energy efficiency ratio with variation of the maximum and minimum compressor input frequencies. To obtain seasonal energy efficiency ratio, steady state test at the maximum, minimum and intermediate compressor speed and cyclic test at the minimum compressor speed should be conducted. Maximum input frequency was varied to 95Hz, 105Hz, and 115Hz, and the minimum input frequency was varied to 35Hz, 45Hz, and 55Hz. The seasonal energy efficiency ratio increased as the input frequency of the compressor decreased. The maximum input frequency had only slight effects on the SEER.

This study investigates the strength durability of an automotive front bumper subjected to vibrations during driving. Through structural analyses,the maximum equivalent stresses of models 1 and 2 were found to be 187.09 and 278.4 MPa, respectively. The maximum deformations of models 1 and 2 were 1.3772 and 2.675 mm, respectively. As model 1 shows less deformation than model 2, itis stronger than model 2. Models 1and 2 show natural frequencies within 230 Hz as the range of the maximum harmonic response frequency. Models 1 and 2 have maximum amplitude displacements of 0.105 and 0.154 mm at critical frequencies of 159 and 110 Hz, respectively. As model 1 has a higher critical frequency than model 2, it has more strength durability than model 2. This study result can be effectively utilized for the design of a front bumper by investigating prevention against damage and its strength durability.

Spline chirplet transform and local maximum synchrosqueezing are introduced to present a novel structural instantaneous frequency (IF) identification method named local maximum synchrosqueezing spline chirplet transform (LMSSSCT). Namely spline chirplet transform (SCT), a transform is firstly introduced based on classic chirplet transform and spline interpolated kernel function. Applying SCT in association with local maximum synchrosqueezing, the LMSSSCT is then proposed. The index of accuracy and Rényi entropy show that LMSSSCT outperforms the other time-frequency analysis (TFA) methods in processing analytical signals, especially in the presence of noise. Numerical examples of a Duffing nonlinear system with single degree of freedom and a two-layer shear frame structure with time-varying stiffness are used to verify the effectiveness of structural IF identification. Moreover, a nonlinear supported beam structure test is conducted and the LMSSSCT is utilized for structural IF identification. Numerical simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the presented LMSSSCT can effectively identify the IFs of nonlinear structures and time-varying structures with good accuracy and stability.

Induction heating method that allows the maximum heating power to be delivered by varying switching frequency in the inductance change of the work coil of induction heater was proposed in this paper. Depending on the type of work piece in the work coil and proximity to the work coil, the resonance frequency of the resonant circuit will be changed. It may be difficult to deliver the maximum power due to the damage of the induced heater element or switching loss depending on the resonance frequency and switching frequency operating relationship. The switching frequency was variable to maintain the maximum power transmission by sensing the heating power due to the change of the resonance frequency. Through the result of the proposed method that can be controlled within the required output change range according to the change of the switching frequency corresponding to the change of the resonance frequency, the induction heater having a variable switching frequency characteristic that can transmit almost constant output power (within 0.43 dB) power efficiency was achieved.

OFDM system has a disadvantage of sensitiveness about the effect of the frequency offset caused by the discord of oscillators in transmitter and receiver. The frequency offset can be divided into integral part and decimal part. Although the frequency offset of integral part do not effect orthogonality between subcarriers, it makes the bit error probability become to 0.5 because of circular transient among transmitted data symbols. This paper proposes a new estimation scheme of the frequency offset of integral part by Maximum Likelihood (ML) demanding only one training symbol in multipath fading channel environment. This proposed scheme not only can reduce the number of training symbol but do not increase the complexity and it shows the better performance by simulation.

In the present study, the loading frequency dependencies of cyclic shear strength and elastic shear modulus of reconstituted clay were examined by performing undrained cyclic triaxial tests and undrained cyclic triaxial tests to determine deformation properties. The result of undrained cyclic triaxial test of reconstituted and saturated clay shows that a faster frequency leads to higher stress amplitude ratio, but when the frequency becomes fast up to a certain point, the stress amplitude ratio will reach its maximum limit and the frequency dependence becomes insignificant. And also, the result of undrained cyclic triaxial deformation test shows a fact that a faster loading frequency leads to higher equivalent shear modules and smaller hysteresis damping ratio, and confirms the frequency dependence of cohesive soil. Meanwhile, the result of the creep test shows that continuing creep is created in the undrained cyclic triaxial test with slow loading frequency rate, and since loading rate becomes slower at the vicinity of the maximum and the minimum deviator stress due to sine wave loading, the vicinity of the maximum and the minimum deviator stress shall be more influenced by creep.
