This paper presents an adaptive recursive least squares algorithm (ARLS) for detecting voltage sag and voltage swell events in power systems. Different methods have been developed to detect voltage sag and voltage swell. Some of them use window techniques, which are too slow when voltage sag or swell mitigation is required. Others depend on the extraction of a single non-stationary sinusoidal signal out of a given multi-components input signal, and therefore they don't consider the harmonic components in calculating the voltage root mean square value (rms). The method, proposed in this paper, is capable of estimating the voltage rms taking into account all harmonic components. The method is tested by applying it to different, simulated signals using ATP program, and compared with voltage sag detection algorithms.

Acoustic emission technology is applied to diagnosis the internal leak and operating conditions of the major valves at nuclear power plants. The purpose of this study is to verify availability of the acoustic emission as in-situ diagnosis method. In this study, acoustic emission tests are performed when the pressurized high temperature steam flowed through gate valve(1st stage reheater valve) and glove valve(main steam dump valve) on the normal size of 4 and 8". The valve internal leak diagnosis system for practical field was designed. The acoustic emission method was applied to the valves at the site, and the background noise was measured for the abnormal plant condition. To improve the reliability, a judgment of leak on the system was used various factors which are AE parameters, trend analysis, signal level analysis and RMS(root mean square) analysis of acoustic signal emitted from the valve operating condition internal leak.

In this study, a comparison of dynamic pressure data measured in hot-firing tests of liquid rocket engine gas generators with different types of dynamic pressure sensors is presented. The dynamic pressure sensors of different types and manufacturers have exhibited different dynamic pressure due to the influence of thermal shock. However, for the characteristic frequencies and RMS(root mean square) values which are important factors for the analysis of combustion instability, the differences between sensors have been found to be negligible.

For stator winding protection of AC generator, KCL(Kirchhoff's Current Law) is widely applied. Actually a CRDR(Current Ratio Differential Relay) based on DFT(Discrete Fourier Transform) has been used for protecting generator. It has been pointed out that defects can occur during the process of transforming a time domain signal into a frequency domain one which can lead to loss of time domain information. Wavelets techniques are proposed for the analysis of power system transients. This paper introduces an algorithm to choose a suitable Mother Wave1et for generator stator fault detection. For optimal selection, we analyzed db(Daubechies), sym(Symlets), and coif(Coiflects) of Mother Wavelet. And we compared with performance of the choice algorithm using detail coefficients energy and RMS(root mean square) error. It can be improved the reliability of the conventional DFT based CRDR. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed scheme is proved with simulation using collected data obtained from ATP (Alternative Transient Program) package.

The normal low-cost manufacturing process for freeform vehicle side mirrors causes deviations from the design curvature. Here, an improved manufacturing process is proposed, combining photorealistic ray-traced visualization of each deviation and subsequent analysis of its deviated reflective scene compared to that of the original design. The proposed mechanism successfully highlights the overlap and mismatch regions of deviated reflected scenes with reference to the desired reflective scenes. We benchmarked the robustness of freeform mirror manufacturing by evaluating the 10, 20, and 30% root-mean-square (RMS) deviated curvature, and concluded that the acceptable deviation needs to be below RMS20% to avoid mismatched regions that could mislead the driver.

In this paper, the multi feature extraction algorithm for estimation of wrist movements based on Electromyogram(EMG) is proposed. For the extraction of precise features from the EMG signals, the difference absolute mean value(DAMV), the mean absolute value(MAV), the root mean square(RMS) and the difference absolute standard deviation value(DASDV) to consider amplitude characteristic of EMG signals are used. We figure out a more accurate feature-set by combination of two features out of these, because of multi feature extraction algorithm is more precise than single feature method. Also, for the motion classification based on EMG, the linear discriminant analysis(LDA), the quadratic discriminant analysis(QDA) and k-nearest neighbor(k-NN) are used. We implemented a test targeting twenty adult male to identify the accuracy of EMG pattern classification of wrist movements such as up, down, right, left and rest. As a result of our study, the LDA, QDA and k-NN classification method using feature-set with MAV and DASDV showed respectively 87.59%, 89.06%, 91.75% accuracy.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and identify variables for the standing balance of elderly subjects with different balancing abilities by using Kinect and Wii Balance Board. Method: The Berg Balance Scale (BBS) test was performed in 40 elderly subjects aged ${\geq}65years$ who can perform daily activities. The participants were divided into two groups, the healthy seniors (n = 20, BBS score ${\geq}52$) and the seniors with balancing problems (n = 20, BBS score < 52). Each group performed two standing tests (eyes open and eyes close) with two devices (Kinect and Wii Balance Board). The root mean square (RMS), mean distance (MDIST), range of distance (ROD), mean velocity, and 95% ellipse area were calculated from the measured data. Results: Among the calculated variables, RMS, MDIST, and ROD in the mediolateral direction showed significant differences between the two groups and a negative correlation with BBS scores. Conclusion: The results of the present study show that simple standing balance of the elderly can be measured with Kinect and Wii Balance Board, which are low-cost, easy to carry, and easy to use, by using the selected variables.

Over the past few decades, the use of wind tunnels has been increasing as a result of the rapid growth of cities and the urge to build taller and non-typical structures. While the accuracy of a wind tunnel study on a tall building requires several aspects, the precise extraction of wind pressure plays a significant role in a successful pressure test. In this research study, a low-cost expandable synchronous multi-pressure sensing system (SMPSS) was developed and validated at Ryerson University's wind tunnel (RU-WT) using electronically scanning pressure sensors for wind tunnel tests. The pressure system consists of an expandable 128 pressure sensors connected to a compact data acquisition and a host workstation. The developed system was examined and validated to be used for tall buildings by comparing mean, root mean square (RMS), and power spectral density (PSD) for the base moments coefficients with the available data from the literature. In addition, the system was examined for evaluating the mean and RMS pressure distribution on a standard low-rise building and were found to be in good agreement with the validation data.

Topex/Poseidon sea surface heights are compared to tide gauge sea levels in the South Indian Ocean in the period of January 1993 to December 1995. A user's handbook (AVISO) for processing sea surface height data was used in this study. Topex/Poseidon sea surface heights were obtained from satellite data at the proximity of tide gauge stations. These data were reproduced by a linear interpolation with the interval of 10 days and were processed by the Gaussian filter with a 60-day window. The tide gauge sea levels were obtained in the same manner as the satellite data. The main results on RMS (Root-Mean-Square) and CORR (CORRelation coefficient) in our study were shown as follows: 1) on the characteristics between two data (in-situ and model data), the results (RMS=2.96 cm & CORR=$92\%$ in the Amsterdam plateau, and RMS=3.45 cm & CORR=$59\%$ in the Crozet plateau) of the comparison of Topex/Poseidon sea surface heights with tide gauge sea levels, which was calculated by in-situ data of obsewed station showed generally low values in RMS and high values in CORR against to the results (RMS=4.69 cm & CORR=$79\%$ in the Amsterdam plateau, and RMS= 6.29 cm & CORR= $49\%$ in the Crozet plateau) of the comparison of Topex/Poseidon sea surface heights with tide gauge sea levels, which was calculated by model data of ECMWF (European Center for Medium-range Weather Forecasting), and 2) on the characteristics between two areas (Kerguelen plateau and island), the results (RMS=3.28 cm & CORR= $54\%$ in the Kerguelen plateau) of open sea area showed low values in RMS and high values in CORR against to the results (RMS= 5.71 cm & CORR=$38\%$ in the Kerguelen island) of coast area, respectively.
