This paper describes a novel approach for performing eigenvalue analysis and frequency domain analysis of multi-machine power system. The salient feature of this approach is a direct approach for constructing the state matrix equations of linearized power systems about its operating point using modular technique. These state matrix equations are then used to obtain eigenvalues and mode shapes of the system, and frequency response, or Bode, plots of selected transfer functions. The proposed program provides a flexible tool for systematic analyses of tuning PSS's parameters. The paper also presents its application to the analyses of a single-machine infinite bus system and two-area system with 4 machines.

Recently many authors [2,3,5,6] proved the existence of zeros of accretive operators and estimated the range of m-accretive operators or compact perturbations of m-accretive operators more sharply. Their results could be obtained from differential equations in Banach spaces or iteration methods or Leray-Schauder degree theory. On the other hand Kirk and Schonberg [9] used the domain invariance theorem of Deimling [3] to prove some general minimum principles for continuous accretive operators. Kirk and Schonberg [10] also obtained the range of m-accretive operators (multi-valued and without any continuity assumption) and the implications of an equivalent boundary conditions. Their fundamental tool of proofs is based on a precise analysis of the orbit of resolvents of m-accretive operator at a specified point in its domain. In this paper we obtain a sufficient condition for m-accretive operators to have a zero. From this we derive Theorem 1 of Kirk and Schonberg [10] and some results of Morales [12, 13] and Torrejon[15]. And we further generalize Theorem 5 of Browder [1] by using Theorem 3 of Kirk and Schonberg [10].

Turbulent flow in a channel with a square rib periodically mounted on one wall is studied by large-eddy simulation(LES). An efficient 3D Navier-Stokes solver has been written for this geometry using a fractional step method and a multi-grid technique. The Reynolds number considered is 82, 000 based on the mean velocity above the obstacle height. Near-wall turbulence is approximated by a wall-layer model based on the turbulence intensity at the grid point nearest a solid wall. The results show a good qualitative agreement with experiments currently available for a single rib, indicating that LES can be a useful tool in simulating complex turbulent flows.

This paper has proposed a new parameter to interpret the effects of plastic deformation in bending of strips in cylindrical die and punch. With reference to the parameter, we have provided an insight on the separation between strips and punches, the occurrence of the multi-point bending during the process of deformation, the final shapes of strips, and the springback ratios. Also using the parameter, we have considered the different effects between the bending deformation in the cylindrical die and the bending deformation due to pure bending.

격자 기반의 분포형 모형은 격자로 분할된 유역의 임의 지점에 대해서 유출량을 계산할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 분포형 모형을 이용한 기존의 유출해석에서는 유역의 최하류 지점을 대상으로 모형을 보정하는 단일지점 모형보정 기술이 적용되어 왔다. 단일지점을 대상으로 모형을 보정할 경우, 보정 대상 지점에서 멀리 떨어져 있는 격자 일수록 유출해석 결과와 관측 유량의 오차가 커질 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 소유역으로 분할된 유역에 대해서 소유역별로 모형을 보정할 수 있는 다지점 보정기술을 이용해서 유출해석을 수행하였다. 유역내 여러 지점에 대해서 모형을 보정할 경우, 소유역 및 최하류 지점에 대한 유출해석 결과를 향상시킬 수 있다. 이러한 다지점 보정기술은 유역내 여러 지점에 대한 유출량을 계산할 때 효과적으로 적용될 수 있으며, 분포형 모형을 이용한 홍수예보시스템 구축시, 대상 유역내 다수의 지점에 대해 실시간 유출해석을 손쉽게 수행하는 데 적용될 수 있을 것이다.

Safety of workers and productivity in construction site are affected according to the conflict status of work spaces which are performed at a time. The interference among the work spaces in construction site should be minimized because it becomes a blocking factor that causes construction delay and low productivity. Those factors can be managed by reasonable H&S (Health & Safety) practice. This research suggests the requirements of H&S practice and rules to establish the strategy of H&S management based on the literature reviews related to H&S rule. The suggested H&S rule can be visualized for searching space conflict point if the rule is linked with visual simulation tool. Accordingly the research results can be used for improving and visualizing construction productivity by work space control in 4D/nD CAD system.

The overall aim of this paper is to determine coupling loss factor of welding point between shell and cylinder using loss factor and structural loss factor. For this purpose, two kinds of loss factor were adopted. One is loss factor of each sub structure, another is structural loss factor based on the complex welded or assembled structure. Using these two parameters, it is possible to derive the coupling loss factor which represents characteristic condition of SEA theory. Coupling loss factor of conjunction in complex structure was expressed as power balance equation. The derived equation for a coupling loss factor has been simplified on the assumption of one way (uni-directional) power flow between multi-sub structures. Using these conditions, it is possible to find the equation of coupling loss factor expressed as above two loss factors. To check the effectiveness of above equation, this paper used two-stage application. The first approach was application between simple cylinder and shell. The next was adopted rotary compressor. Rotary compressor has three main conjunctions between shell and internal vibration part. This equation was applied to find out the optimum welding point with respect to reduce the noise propagation. It shows the effective tool to evaluate the coupling loss factor in complex structure.

This study presents the usability of the high-rate single-frequency Precise Point Positioning (SF-PPP) technique based on 20 Hz Global Positioning Systems (GPS)-only observations in detecting dynamic motions. SF-PPP solutions were obtained from post-mission and real-time GNSS corrections. These include the International GNSS Service (IGS)-Final, IGS real-time (RT), real-time MADOCA (Multi-GNSS Advanced Demonstration tool for Orbit and Clock Analysis), and real-time products from the Australian/New Zealand satellite-based augmentation systems (SBAS, known as SouthPAN). SF-PPP results were compared with LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transformer) sensor and single-frequency relative positioning (SF-RP) solutions. The findings show that the SF-PPP technique successfully detects the harmonic motions, and the real-time products-based PPP solutions were as accurate as the final post-mission products. In the frequency domain, all GNSS-based methods evaluated in this contribution correctly detect the dominant frequency of short-term harmonic oscillations, while the differences in the amplitude values corresponding to the peak frequency do not exceed 1.1 mm. However, evaluations in the time domain show that SF-PPP needs high-pass filtering to detect accurate displacement since SF-PPP solutions include trends and low-frequency fluctuations, mainly due to atmospheric effects. Findings obtained in the time domain indicate that final, real-time, and MADOCA-based PPP results capture short-term dynamic behaviors with an accuracy ranging from 3.4 mm to 8.5 mm, and SBAS-based PPP solutions have several times higher RMSE values compared to other methods. However, after high-pass filtering, the accuracies obtained from PPP methods decreased to a few mm. The outcomes demonstrate the potential of the high-rate SF-PPP method to reliably monitor structural and earthquake-induced ground motions and vibration frequencies of structures.

Climate change scenarios are the basis of research to cope with climate change, and consist of large-scale spatio-temporal data. From the data point of view, one scenario has a large capacity of about 83 gigabytes or more, and the data format is semi-structured, making it difficult to utilize the data through means such as search, extraction, archiving and analysis. In this study, a tool for analyzing extreme climate events based on spatial information is developed to improve the usability of large-scale, multi-period climate change scenarios. In addition, a pilot analysis is conducted on the time and space in which the heavy rain thresholds that occurred in the past can occur in the future, by applying the developed tool to the RCP8.5 climate change scenario. As a result, the days with a cumulative rainfall of more than 587.6 mm over three days would account for about 76 days in the 2080s, and localized heavy rains would occur. The developed analysis tool was designed to facilitate the entire process from the initial setting through to deriving analysis results on a single platform, and enabled the results of the analysis to be implemented in various formats without using specific commercial software: web document format (HTML), image (PNG), climate change scenario (ESR), statistics (XLS). Therefore, the utilization of this analysis tool is considered to be useful for determining future prospects for climate change or vulnerability assessment, etc., and it is expected to be used to develop an analysis tool for climate change scenarios based on climate change reports to be presented in the future.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate aging (young and old), gender (male and female), and handle shape effects on grip force, finger force, and subjective comfort. Four handle shapes of A, D, I, and V were implemented by a multi-finger force measurement (MFFM) system which was developed to measure every finger force with different grip spans. Forty young (20 males and 20 females) and forty old (20 males and 20 females) subjects participated in twelve gripping tasks and rated their comfort for all handles using a 5-point scale. Grip forces were calculating by summation of all four forces of the index, middle, ring and little fingers. Results showed that young males (283.2N) had larger gripping force than old males (235.6N), while young females (151.4N) had lower force than old females (153.6N). Young subjects exerted the largest gripping force with D-shape due to large contribution of the index and middle fingers and the smallest with A-shape; however, old subjects exerted the largest with I-shape and the smallest with V-shape due to small contribution of the ring and little fingers. As expected, the middle finger had the largest finger force and the little finger had the smallest. The fraction of contribution of index and ring fingers to grip force differed among age groups. Interestingly, young subjects provided larger index finger force than ring finger force, whereas old subjects showed that larger ring finger forces than index finger force in the griping tasks. In the relationship between performance and subjective comfort, I-shape exerting the largest grip force had less comfort than D-shape producing the second largest grip force. The findings of this study can provide guidelines on designing hand tool handle to obtain better performance as well as users' comfort.
