In this study, the trip characteristics of workers in the city are systematically analyzed. The trip behaviors and socioeconomic characteristics of workers are analyzed using Person Trip Survey Data of 1988 and 1992 in Taegu Metropolitan area. With the results of behavioral analyses, the daily travel pattern of workers is shown as one tour contained two trips and it is relatively simple and stable. Also the rate using the same mode in a day is Presented as high ratio. So, it can be explained that the choice of worker\`s first trip is fixed his/her travel mode for his/her daily travel mode. Based on these analyses, the mode choice model for workers is developed by applying the Multi-nominal Logit Model with the choice set of bus, taxi, and car. The explanatory variables of this model include sex, age, auto, travel time, and cost. Empirical tests of the model show encouraging results. After that, the temporal transferability of the model is examined by the Pairwise t-test and five indexes far the model of 1988 and 1992. The results of examination are satisfied with each significance level of the explanatory variables and five indexes. Therefore. it can be concluded that the temporal transferability of this model developed in this study is resonable.

Crane systems are very important in industrial fields to carry heavy objects such that many investigations about control of the systems are actively conducted for enhancing its control performance. This paper presents an adaptive control approach using the model matching for a complex 3-DOF nonlinear crane system. First, the system model is linearized through feedback linearization method and then PD control is applied in the approximated model. This linear model is considered as nominal to derive corrective control law for a perturbed crane model using Lyapunov theory. This corrective control is primitively aimed to compensate real-time control deviation due to partially known perturbation. We additionally study stability analysis of the crane control system using Lyapunov perturbation theory. Evaluation of our control approach is numerically carried out through computer simulation and its superiority is demonstrated comparing with the classical control.

Recently, as the supply of residential polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) increases, the durability and lifetime of the PEMFC system are becoming important. The related studies have been mainly focused on the durability and lifetime of materials while the research on the durability and maintenance of the system level is insufficient. In this paper, a model-based fault detection method is developed considering an air supply system that is dominant to the system performance and efficiency. A commercial 1 kW residential fuel cell system is built, and experiments are conducted under various operation loads and states (normal, 6 faults). From the experimental data, nominal models and residuals are generated. With the residual pattern obtained from real-time data, the detection and classification of various faults can be possible. The technical importance of this paper is to minimize extra sensor installation by using the empirical model rather than a complex mathematical model, and to decrease the number of models by using the applicable model at three loads. Finally, the model-based fault detection method for the air supply system of a PEMFC is established and is expected to be applicable to other subsystems.

A novel model of an inductive superconducting fault current limiter with an inductive superconducting fault current limiter with the air-gap core was fabricated and tested. If its impedance is not high enough to limit the fault current, then destructive damage occurs in the power system. We attained a magnetic saturation under higher current by an effective air gap introduced in the core. The fault current was successfully limited to two times as much as the nominal current at a 60 Hz source having an effective voltage of 70 V. The fault current flowing under such conditions can be limited to a desired value without any fault current peak within 1/4 cycles.

The issues associated with the application of CFD for ship design are addressed. Doubtlessly at the moment, CFD tools are very useful in evaluating hull forms prior to traditional towing tank tests. However, time-consuming pre-processing is an obstacle in the daily application of CFD tools to improve hull forms. The accuracy of computational modeling without sacrificing the usability of CFD system is also to be assessed. The wave generation is still predicted by using potential panel methods, while velocity profiles entering into propeller plane is solved using turbulent flow solvers. The choice of turbulence model is a key to predict nominal wake distribution within acceptable accuracy. The experimental data for CFD validation are invaluable to improve physical and numerical modeling. Other applications of CFD for ship design than hull form improvement are also given. It is certain that CFD can be a cost-effective tool for the design of new and better ships.

This paper introduces basic study how to restrain the vibration of a four story shear structure. We have modeled a four story shear structure mathematically and have identified each parameters by experiment. We have gotten a reduced nominal model through modal analyzing method and the $H_{\infty}$ control theory is used in the control system design to get the robust controller. It's shown that the desirable performances is confirmed through the mathematical simulation. And a designed controller applying the $H_{\infty}$ control theory shows the good performance for the impulse disturbance through the simulation results. That is, the robustness of this control system is confirmed for the ability of disturbance rejection and modeling error.

This work is concerned with the estimation of output derivatives and their use for the design of robust controller for linear systems with systems uncertainties due to modeling errors and disturbance. It is assumed that a nominal transfer function model and quantitative bounds for system uncertainties are known The developed control schemes are shown to achieve regulation of the system output and ensures boundedness of the system states without imposing any structural conditions on system uncertainties and disturbances. Output derivative estimation is first conducted trough restructuring of the plant in a specific parameterization. They are utilized for constructing robust nonlinear high-gain feedback controller of a SMC(Sliding Mode Controller)Type. The performances of the developed controller are evaluated and shown to be effective and useful through simulation study.

Frequency is an important operating parameter of a power system. It is essential that the frequency of a power system be maintained very close to its nominal frequency. And frequency measurement devices have need to measure a fast and accurate of frequency using voltage signals. This paper proposes a comparative study of frequency estimation techniques using the high speed FIR filter based algorithm, the DFT filter based algorithm using phasor angle between two phasors, and positive sequence component based algorithm using the half angle between two successive positions of phasor. The discussed three techniques have been formed through numerical manipulation of a discrete system. The proposed techniques have been tested using signals obtained from selected power system model using ATP simulation package. Some test results are shown in this paper.

This paper deals with control parameters deduction and dynamic analysis of hybrid thrust magnetic bearing(HTMB). The flux density at air-gap is obtained from system modeling which considers permanent magnet and electro magnet. The vertical force is derived from flux density using maxwell's stress tensor. An accurate linear model is obtained by using linear approximations of the attraction force around the nominal equilibrium point. The dynamic simulation of the HTMB using the PD controller is conducted and control parameters are deducted.

This paper introduces a robot called the MRINSPECT V (Multifunctional Robotic crawler for Inpipe in-SPECTion V) for the inspection of pipelines with a nominal 8-in inside diameter. Based on the mechanism of the previous model MRINSPECT IV, we developed a new MRINSPECT V by using the differential driving mechanism, so that just simply controlling the speed of each driving units helps the robot to travel effectively inside the pipelines. Furthermore, the robot uses clutches in transmitting driving power to wheels. This clutch mechanism enables MRINSPECT V to select the suitable driving method according to the shape of pipeline. In this paper, the critical points in design and construction of the proposed robot are described with the preliminary results to provide good mobility and increase the efficiency.
