본 연구는 머신러닝 기반의 분석으로 해수담수화(Desalination) 시설의 전력비 예측모델의 가능성을 검토하였다. 해수담수화 주요 공정인 역삼투(Seawater Reverse Osmosis) 시설의 전력비 예측 모델을 개발하고, 전력비 산정에 영향을 미치는 인자를 분석하였으며, 해수 수질 중에서 선정된 수온 및 염분도 측정자료를 활용하여 검토하였다. 국립해양조사원(Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency, KHOA)의 2003년부터 2014년까지의 자료를 이용하였으며, 모형의 구조는 시행오차법(Trial & Error)으로 하이퍼파라미터를 최적화하여 머신러닝 기반의 예측 모델을 구축하고, 장래 해수 수질을 예측하였다. 해수 수온은 기존 패턴과 유사할 것으로 예측되었고, 염분도는 과거 측정자료 범위 이내로 최대값이 점차 감소되는 경향을 보여 해수담수화의 전력비가 약 0.80% 감소하는 것으로 검토되었다. 본 연구는 머신러닝 기반의 예측 모델을 구축하여 장래 수질 변화 예측하였으며, 해수 수질 변동의 영향 및 대안을 제시했다는데 의의가 있다.

In this study, we evaluated the performance of a commercial pixelated cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) detector for spectroscopy and identified its feasibility as a Compton camera for radiation monitoring in a nuclear power plant. The detection system consisted of a $20mm{\times}20mm{\times}5mm$ CZT crystal with $8{\times}8$ pixelated anodes and a common cathode, in addition to an application specific integrated circuit. The performance of the various radioisotopes $^{57}Co$, $^{133}Ba$, $^{22}Na$, and $^{137}Cs$ was evaluated. In general, the amplitude of the induced signal in a CZT crystal depends on the interaction position and material non-uniformity. To minimize this dependency, a drift time correction was applied. The depth of each interaction was calculated by the drift time and the positional dependency of the signal amplitude was corrected based on the depth information. After the correction, the Compton regions of each spectrum were reduced, and energy resolutions of 122 keV, 356 keV, 511 keV, and 662 keV peaks were improved from 13.59%, 9.56%, 6.08%, and 5%-4.61%, 2.94%, 2.08%, and 2.2%, respectively. For the Compton imaging, simulations and experiments using one $^{137}Cs$ source with various angular positions and two $^{137}Cs$ sources were performed. Individual and multiple sources of $^{133}Ba$, $^{22}Na$, and $^{137}Cs$ were also measured. The images were successfully reconstructed by weighted list-mode maximum likelihood expectation maximization method. The angular resolutions and intrinsic efficiency of the $^{137}Cs$ experiments were approximately $7^{\circ}-9^{\circ}$ and $5{\times}10^{-4}-7{\times}10^{-4}$, respectively. The distortions of the source distribution were proportional to the offset angle.

This paper discusses the state-of-the-art techniques in real-time state estimation for the Smart Microgrids. The most popular method used in traditional power system state estimation is a Weighted Least Square(WLS) algorithm which is based on Maximum Likelihood(ML) estimation under the assumption of static system state being a set of deterministic variables. In this paper, we present a survey of dynamic state estimation techniques for Smart Microgrids based on Belief Propagation (BP) when the system state is a set of stochastic variables. The measurements are often too sparse to fulfill the system observability in the distribution network of microgrids. The BP algorithm calculates posterior distributions of the state variables for real-time sparse measurements. Smart Microgrids are modeled as a factor graph suitable for characterizing the linear correlations among the state variables. The state estimator performs the BP algorithm on the factor graph based the stochastic model. The factor graph model can integrate new models for solar and wind correlation. It provides the Smart Microgrids with a way of integrating the distributed renewable energy generation. Our study on Smart Microgrid state estimation can be extended to the estimation of unbalanced three phase distribution systems as well as the optimal placement of smart meters.

A 4${\times}10^{19}cm^{3}$ carbon-doped base AlGaAs/GaAs HBY was grown using carbontetracholoride(CCl$_4$) by atmospheric pressure MOCVD. Abruptness of emitter-base junction was characterized by SIMS(secondary ion mass spectorscopy) and the doping concentration of base layer was confirmed by DXRD(double crystal X-ray diffractometry). Mesa-type HBTs were fabricated using wet etching and lift-off technique. The base sheet resistance of R$_{sheet}$=550${\Omega}$/square was measured using TLM(transmission line model) method. The fabricated transistor achieved a collector-base junction breakdown voltage of BV$_{CBO}$=25V and a critical collector current density of J$_{O}$=40kA/cm$^2$ at V$_{CE}$=2V. The 50$\times$100$\mu$$^2$ emitter transistor showed a common emitter DC current gain of h$_{FE}$=30 at a collector current density of JS1CT=5kA/cm$^2$ and a base current ideality factor of ηS1EBT=1.4. The high frequency characterization of 5$\times$50$\mu$m$^2$ emitter transistor was carried out by on-wafer S-parameter measurement at 0.1~18.1GHz. Current gain cutoff frequency of f$_{T}$=27GHz and maximum oscillation frequency of f$_{max}$=16GHz were obtained from the measured Sparameter and device parameters of small-signal lumped-element equivalent network were extracted using Libra software. The fabricated HBT was proved to be useful to high speed and power spplications.

We have been measuring $CH_4$ flux in a rice paddy in Gimje using the eddy covariance method since July 2011. In order to measure the fast fluctuations of $CH_4$ concentration, an innovative LI-7700 open-path laser spectrometer is used. This high-precision, low power, light weight, low maintenance sensor enables us to operate it on a continuous and long-term basis. One particular feature, among other things, is the self-cleaning lower mirror which decreases maintenance requirements while ensuring more robust, continuous, high-quality dataset. Its cleaning is initiated at user-specified time intervals or a signal strength threshold, and its status is recorded as a diagnostic index. We have noticed that the operation of LI-7700 at Gimje site is quite challenging particularly due to its frequent mirror cleaning requirement and the associated sensitivity of the instrument. In this presentation, we present some field observation data regarding the mirror cleaning and their analysis, thereby suggesting the pertinent operation options for high-quality, maximum data retrieval in the field.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate and verify the application of phase-control absolute-acceleration-feedback active tuned mass dampers (PCA-ATMD) to multiple-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) building structures. In addition, servo speed control technique has been developed as a replacement for force control in order to mitigate the negative effects caused by friction and inertia. The essence of the proposed PCA-ATMD is to achieve a 90° phase lag for a structure by implementing the desired control force so that the PCA-ATMD can receive the maximum power flow with which to effectively mitigate the structural vibration. An MDOF building structure with a PCA-ATMD and a real-time filter forming a complete system is modeled using a state-space representation and is presented in detail. The feedback measurement for the phase control algorithm of the MDOF structure is compact, with only the absolute acceleration of one structural floor and ATMD's velocity relative to the structure required. A discrete-time direct output-feedback optimization method is introduced to the PCA-ATMD to ensure that the control system is optimized and stable. Numerical simulation and shaking table experiments are conducted on a three-story steel shear building structure to verify the performance of the PCA-ATMD. The results indicate that the absolute acceleration of the structure is well suppressed whether considering peak or root-mean-square responses. The experiment also demonstrates that the control of the PCA-ATMD can be decentralized, so that it is convenient to apply and maintain to real high-rise building structures.

The characterization of detectors installed in space- and ground-based instruments is important to evaluate the system performance. We report the development of a detector performance test system for astronomical applications using the Andor iKon M CCD camera. The performance test system consists of a light source, monochromator, integrating sphere, and power meters. We adopted the Czerny-Tuner monochromator with three ruled gratings and one mirror, which covers a spectral range of 200-9,000 nm with a spectral resolution of ~1 nm in the visible region. Various detector characteristics, such as the quantum efficiency, sensitivity, and noise, can be measured in wide wavelength ranges from the visible to mid-infrared regions. We evaluated the Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) detector performance test system by using the performance verification of the Andor iKon-M CCD camera. The test procedure includes measurements of the conversion gain ($2.86e^-/ADU$), full well capacity ($130K\;e^-$), nonlinearity, and pixel defects. We also estimated the read noise, dark current, and quantum efficiency as a function of the temperature. The lowest measured read noise is $12e^-$. The dark current at 223 K was determined to be $7e^-/s/pix$ and its doubling temperature is $5.3^{\circ}C{\pm}0.2^{\circ}C$ at an activation energy of 0.6 eV. The maximum quantum efficiency at 223 K was estimated to be $93%{\pm}2%$. We proved that the quantum efficiency is sensitive to the operating temperature. It varies up to 5 % in the visible region, while the variation increases to 30 % in the near-infrared region. Based on the comparison of our results with the test report by the vendor, we conclude that our performance test results are consistent with those from the vendor considering the test environment. We also confirmed that the KASI detector performance test system is reliable and our measurement method and analysis are accurate.

최대 출력 3.5kW인 고주파에 의한 알곤 플라즈마 분위기에서 제작한 Fe1-xCox(x=0.2와 0.4)계와 25$\mu\textrm{m}$의 철 박막의 자기적인 성질을 상온에서의 X선 회절과 진동시료자력계를 이용한 자기이력곡선 측정 방법을 사용하여 연구하였다. arc로에서 제작된 시룐느 삼단계 처리 가공하였다. 첫째는 수압기로 9,000N/$\textrm{cm}^2$의 압력을 가하여 알약 형태로 만들었다. 이 단계는 압연기로 눌러 얇은 sheet로 만들었다. 삼단계는 시료는 질소 가스 분위기에서 90$0^{\circ}C$로 열처리하였다. 일단계 시료의 X선 회절결과는 시료가 균질이며 각 시료는 철과 동일한 bcc 결정구조를 갖는 단일결저상(single crystal phase)임을 보였다. 철 박막은 43 Oe의 항자력과 인가자기장에 대한 자화, 즉 초기 기울기는 0.328 emu/gOe를 나타냈다. 이단계 시료에서는 Co량이 증가함에 따라 항자력과 포화자화값은 증가하였다. 반면 초기 기울기는 감소하였다. 이는 항자력의 증가로 인해서 계면이동이 억제되었음을 의미한다. 삼단계 시료에서 두 시료 모두 포화자화값은 증가하였다. 반면 이들 시료의 항자력은 감소하였다. 3단계 시료의 포화자화의 열처리로 인한 시료의 X선 회절강도 변화와 연관이 있어 보인다. 또한 몇 개의 자기 매개변수를 단순모형을 써서 계산하여 다른값과 비교하였다.

고속중성자가 조사된 재료내에 생성된 결함이 자기적 특성에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해서, 대기압, $70^{\circ}C$에서 고속 중성자(조사량 : $10^0-10^{18}n/cm^2$, E>1 MeV)가 조사된 원자로 용기강재의 자기적 성질(최대 자기유도, 보자력, 잔류자기, Barkhausen noise amplitude (BNA), Barkhausen noise energy (BNE)) 및 경도를 측정하였다. $10^{17}n/cm^2$ 이하의 고속 중성자 조사에서 자기적 특성 및 경도의 변화는 없는 것으로 나타났으나, $10^{17}n/cm^2$ 이상 조사에서는 최대 자기유도, 보자력, 잔류자기, BNA, BNE는 감소하고, 경도는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 경도 증가에 따라 자기적 특성은 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 측정된 요소들이 전부 $10^{17}n/cm^2$ 이상에서 변화를 보이고 있어 실험결과는 일관성이 있어, 이 방법을 이용하여 중성자 조사취화를 비파괴적으로 평가할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.
