Geologic sequestration technologies such as CCS (carbon capture and storage), EGS (enhanced geothermal systems), and EOR (enhanced oil recovery) have been widely implemented in recent years, prompting evaluation of the mechanical stability of storage sites. As fluid injection can stimulate mechanical instability in storage layers by perturbing the stress state and pore pressure, poroelastic models considering various injection scenarios are required. In this study, we calculate the pore pressure, stress distribution, and vertical displacement along a surface using commercial finite element software (COMSOL); fault slips are subsequently simulated using PyLith, an open-source finite element software. The displacement fields, are obtained from PyLith is transferred back to COMSOL to determine changes in coseismic stresses and surface displacements. Our sequential use of COMSOL-PyLith-COMSOL for poroelastic modeling of fluid-injection and induced-earthquakes reveals large variations of pore pressure, vertical displacement, and Coulomb failure stress change during injection periods. On the other hand, the residual stress diffuses into the remote field after injection stops. This flow pattern suggests the necessity of numerical modeling and long-term monitoring, even after injection has stopped. We found that the time at which the Coulomb failure stress reaches the critical point greatly varies with the hydraulic and poroelastic properties (e.g., permeability and Biot-Willis coefficient) of the fault and injection layer. We suggest that an understanding of the detailed physical properties of the surrounding layer is important in selecting the injection site. Our numerical results showing the surface displacement and deviatoric stress distribution with different amounts of fault slip highlight the need to test more variable fault slip scenarios.

Fault management of virtualized network environments using user-driven network provisioning systems (NPSs) is crucial for guaranteeing seamless virtual network services irrespective of physical infrastructure impairment. The network service interface (NSI) of the Open Grid Forum reflects the need for a common standard management API for the reservation and provisioning of user-driven virtual circuits (VCs) across global networks. NSI-based NPSs (that is, network service agents) can be used to compose user-driven VCs for mission-critical applications in a dynamic multi-domain. In this article, we first attempt to outline the design issues and challenges faced when attempting to provide mission-critical applications using dynamic VCs with a protection that is both user-driven and trustworthy in a dynamic multi-domain environment, to motivate work in this area of research. We also survey representative works that address inter-domain VC protection and qualitatively evaluate them and current NSI against the issues and challenges.

본 논문에서는 3상 PWM 정류기의 스위치 개방 고장시 감지 및 허용 운전 방법에 대해 제안한다. 스위치의 개방 고장이 발생 하면, 한상의 전류가 반주기 동안 나타나지 않기 때문에 출력 직류전압의 리플로 나타나게 된다. 이경우 고장 감지 및 허용 운전을 하지 않으면, 전력 품질을 저하되며, 직류 링크 콘덴서의 수명이 감축되는 문제를 발생 시킨다. 제안된 기법은 추가적인 하드웨어 없이 간단한 모델 적응 제어 (Model Reference Adaptive System)을 이용하여, 고장된 스위치를 감지 하며, 고장난 스위치의 반대 스위치를 켜고 나머지 2상을 전류제어 하여 3상 전류를 평형상태로 만들어 출력 직류전압의 리플을 줄이는 허용운전을 제안한다. 본 논문은 6kW급 3상 PWM 정류기 시스템을 모의해석을 통해 제안된 기법의 타당성을 입증 하였다.

Outage areas can be transferred to adjacent feeders to restore power supply in case of the fault on the distribution system. Feeders in the small island or mountain area may not have backup feeders due to the low density of load. In this weakly meshed open loop system, BESS can be used as a backup feeder to improve reliability of power supply. This paper proposes a new network reconfiguration method for BESS based service restoration. Fuzzy decision making technique is adopted to deal with fuzziness of service restoration planning rules. Case studies using KEPCO real distribution system have been performed to verify feasibility of the proposed method.

영구자석 전동기는 전력 밀도가 높고 효율이 좋은 특징으로 견인, 의료, 군사 분야 등 다양한 산업 분야에서 사용되고 있다. 이러한 분야에서 사용되는 전동기 구동 시스템은 높은 신뢰성이 요구되므로 인버터에서 발생하는 전력 반도체 스위치 고장을 빠르게 감지해야한다. 본 논문에서는 제어기 상전압 지령과 추정된 상전압 사이의 오차를 통해 전력 반도체 개방 고장을 감지하고 진단하는 방법을 제시하였다. 제안된 방법은 추가적인 측정 회로 없이 제어기 내부 값을 사용하여 개방 고장을 감지하고 개방된 스위치를 진단할 수 있다. 특히 부하 변동을 고려한 감지 방법을 제안하여 고장 감지의 신뢰성을 개선한다.

본 논문은 계통연계 형 3-레벨 NPC(Neutral Point Clamped)인버터의 고장진단 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 고장진단 방법은 스위칭 소자의 개방고장 진단뿐만 아니라 고장 난 스위칭 소자의 위치 또한 판별 할 수 있다. 스위칭 소자의 고장 진단은 콘코디아 변환(Concordia transformation)에 의한 전류패턴의 반지름 변화로 판단 할 수 있다. 고장 난 스위칭 소자의 위치는 기존의 콘코디아 변환(Concordia transformation)에 의한 전류패턴을 분석하는 방법에 간단한 스위칭 동작을 추가함으로써 구분 할 수 있다. 제안하는 기법은 추가적인 센서가 필요하지 않고 전류신호에 기반을 두고 있으므로 시스템의 복잡한 모델링이 필요하지 않은 장점이 있다. 본 논문은 10kW급 태양광 계통연계 시스템을 모의한 시뮬레이션을 바탕으로 제안한 기법의 타당성을 검증한다.

Reflectometry that has been used to localize faults on a cable is introduced. One of the key point of reflectometry is finding time delay between the incident and reflected signals. In this paper, we propose new reflectometry that use Gaussian enveloped linear chirp signal, and use Kalman filter to estimate frequency rate parameter of the chirp signal. From the estimated frequency rate parameter, we can measure the time delay. In a simulation assuming open ended cable, the proposed method is proved to give a good estimation results.

Switching of the transmission lines(T/L) is one of the methods for wuppressing the short circuit capacity. This paper presents the T/L switching operation by using the Hopfield neural network(HNN). The switching of T/L can make the line powers and the bus voltages deteriorated, as well as the fault current decreased. Such an insecure state should be avoided when the T/L is operated to be open. In this studies, the inequality constraints are formulated into the objective function to be incorporated with the HNN. Test results show that the convergence characteristics of HNN lead to the adequate solution of T/L switching.

Most studies in the past in testing and benchmarking on Intrusion Detection System (IDS) were conducted as comparisons, rather than evaluation, on different IDSs. This paper presents the evaluation of the performance of one of the open source IDS, snort, in an inexpensive high availability system configuration. Redundancy and fault tolerance technology are used in deploying such IDS, because of the possible attacks that can make snort exhaust resources, degrade in performance and even crash. Several test data are used in such environment and yielded different results. CPU speed, Disk usage, memory utilization and other resources of the IDS host are also monitored. Test results with the proposed system configuration environment shows much better system availability and reliability, especially on security systems.
