This paper presents a new approach to solve the multi area unit commitment problem (MAUCP) using an evolutionary programming based particle swarm optimization (EPPSO) method. The objective of this paper is to determine the optimal or near optimal commitment schedule for generating units located in multiple areas that are interconnected via tie lines. The evolutionary programming based particle swarm optimization method is used to solve multi area unit commitment problem, allocated generation for each area and find the operating cost of generation for each hour. Joint operation of generation resources can result in significant operational cost savings. Power transfer between the areas through the tie lines depends upon the operating cost of generation at each hour and tie line transfer limits. Case study of four areas with different load pattern each containing 7 units (NTPS) and 26 units connected via tie lines have been taken for analysis. Numerical results showed comparing the operating cost using evolutionary programming-based particle swarm optimization method with conventional dynamic programming (DP), evolutionary programming (EP), and particle swarm optimization (PSO) method. Experimental results show that the application of this evolutionary programming based particle swarm optimization method has the potential to solve multi area unit commitment problem with lesser computation time.

Through various media, damage of both smoking and second-hand smoking has been recognized, and brought global scale of interest in antismoking. In Korea, government has tightened regulations of smoking in non-smoking zone since December, 1980, and after National Health Promotion Act in 1995, non-smoking zone has been gradually expanded. On the other hand, there were law suits to find those regulation towards smokers are either unconstitutional or not for 4 times. In this current state, people need smoking area to prevent second-hand smoking and to consider smokers in multi-unit dwelling. Main purpose of this research is to plan smoking spaces based on various typology of multi-dwelling plan for protection of both smokers and non-smokers' right. The research group collected and analyzed the smoking behaviors in various multi-unit dwelling types such as flat type, tower type, hybrid type and others. Based on those data, the group found three phenomena. First, there are internal regulations in multi-unit dwelling to make non-smoking zone based on National Health Promotion Act and resident representative meeting decision. Second, main smoking activities are occurring at major traffic line and entrances. Third, smoking inside of multi-unit dwelling complex causes second-hand smoking to residents live in $1^{st}$ floor and when they enter. Therefore, one can achieve both smokers' and non-smokers' protection of right by creating a designated smoking space near main entrances of multi-unit dwelling complex to consider smokers' and prevents second-hand smoking by using shaft space, which is in core space, to ventilate tobacco smoke through roof.

The eventual goal of this paper is to help the generating companies and load-serving entities to choose appropriate relative levels of interconnected system versus bilateral trades while considering risk, and economic performance. In competitive power markets, electricity prices are determined by balance between demand and supply in electric power exchanges or bilateral contracts. The problem formulation is bilateral contract incorporated into Multi-area unit commitment with import/export and tie-line constraints. This proposed method considers maximizing own profit or minimize the operating cost among the generating companies in multi-area system. The feasibility of the proposed algorithm has been demonstrated using IEEE system with four areas and experimental results shows that proposed method is reliable, fast and computationally efficient

다수호기 부지에 위치한 원전의 해체는 인근에 위치한 운영중인 원전으로 인해 작업자에게 추가적인 방사선 피폭 위험을 야기할 수 있다. 따라서 인근의 운영중인 다수호기 원전에 의한 해체 작업자에 대한 피폭 선량 평가가 필요하다. ENDOS프로그램은 한국원자력연구원(KAERI)에서 개발된 선량평가 전산코드로, 하위 프로그램으로 대기 확산 평가 프로그램인 ENDOS-ATM과 기체 방사성 배출물에 의한 피폭 선량 계산을 수행하는 ENDOS-G가 있다. 이 프로그램들을 이용하여 고리 1호기 해체작업자에 대한 다수호기 원전 운영에 의한 피폭 선량을 계산한 결과, $2.31{\times}10^{-3}mSv{\cdot}y^{-1}$로 일반인에 대한 피폭선량 기준치인 $1mSv{\cdot}y^{-1}$에 비교해 보았을때 큰 영향이 없을 것이라는 판단에 도달할 수 있었다. 앞으로 예상되는 국내 해체 원전의 경우 모두 다수호기 부지에 위치하여 이 연구 방법과 결과가 활용될 수 있을 것이라고 기대한다.

Following the Fukushima accident, portable equipment employed as accident mitigating systems have been installed and operated to reduce core damage and large early release frequencies. In addition, the establishment of an accident management strategy has gained importance. This study investigated the current status of portable equipment including the international portable equipment FLEX (diverse and flexible coping strategies), and domestic portable equipment multi-barrier accident coping strategy (MACST). Research on optimal utilization of MACST remains insufficient. As a preliminary study for establishing an optimal strategy, sensitivity studies were conducted to facilitate the priority of use on portable equipment, number of portable equipment, and dependency of operator actions based on a multi-unit probabilistic safety assessment model. The results revealed the conditions that reduced the multi-unit and site conditional core damage probabilities, indicating the optimal strategy of MACST. The results of this study can be used as a reference for establishing an optimal strategy that utilizes domestic safety equipment in the future.

Level 3 Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA) is performed for the risk assessment that calculates radioactive material dispersion to the environment. This risk assessment is performed with a tool of MELCOR Accident Consequence Code System (MACCS2 or WinMACCS). For the off-site consequence analysis of multi-unit nuclear power plant (NPP) accident, the single location (Center Of Mass, COM) method has been usually adopted with the assumption that all the NPPs in the nuclear site are located at the same COM point. It was well known that this COM calculation can lead to underestimated or overestimated radionuclide concentration. In order to overcome this underestimation or overestimation of radionuclide concentrations in the COM method, Multiple Location (ML) method was developed in this study. The radionuclide concentrations for the individual NPPs are separately calculated, and they are summed at every location in the nuclear site by the post-processing of radionuclide concentrations that is based on two-dimensional Gaussian Plume equations. In order to demonstrate the efficiency of the ML method, radionuclide concentrations were calculated for the six-unit NPP site, radionuclide concentrations of the ML method were compared with those by COM method. This comparison was performed for conditions of constant weather, yearly weather in Korea, and four seasons, and the results were discussed. This new ML method (1) improves accuracy of radionuclide concentrations when multi-unit NPP accident occurs, (2) calculates realistic atmospheric dispersion of radionuclides under various weather conditions, and finally (3) supports off-site emergency plan optimization. It is recommended that this new method be applied to the risk assessment of multi-unit NPP accident. This new method drastically improves the accuracy of radionuclide concentrations at the locations adjacent to or very close to NPPs. This ML method has a great strength over the COM method when people live near nuclear site, since it provides accurate radionuclide concentrations or radiation doses.

본 논문에서는 저가 MCU(Microcontoller Unit)를 이용하여 다채널 능동 소음 제어기를 효율적으로 구현할 수 있는 방안을 제안하였다. 다채널 능동 소음 제어 알고리즘으로 사용된 정규화된 MFxLMS(Modified Filtered-x Least Mean Square) 알고리즘은 많은 연산량을 요구하며, 저가 MCU로 구현하기에는 어려움이 있었다. 본 연구에서는 MCU의 특성을 잘 활용하여 소프트웨어를 최적화함으로써 효율적으로 다채널 능동 소음 제어기를 구현할 수 있었다. CPU(Central Processing Unit)가 지원하는 단일 싸이클 MAC(Multiply- Accumulate) 연산을 극대화하고, 지연 메모리 연산을 최소화함으로써 3배 이상의 연산 최적화를 달성하였다. 또한 MCU가 지원하는 보조 프로세서를 이용하여 병렬 처리함으로써 4배 이상의 연산 최적화를 이루었다. 더불어 MCU에 내장된 주변 장치를 최대한 활용함으써, 추가적인 부품의 사용을 최소화하였다.
