Considering the randomness and uncertainty of wind power, a reliability model of WTGs is established based on the combination of the Weibull distribution and the Markov chain. To analyze the failure mode quickly, we use the switch-section partitioning method. After defining the first-level load zone node, we can obtain the supply power sets of the first-level load zone nodes with each WTG. Based on the supply sets, we propose the dynamic division strategy of island operation. By adopting the fault analysis method with the attributes defined in the switch-section, we evaluate the reliability of the distribution network with WTGs using a sequential Monte Carlo simulation method. Finally, using the IEEE RBTS Bus6 test system, we demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed model and method by comparing different schemes to access the WTGs.

The simulation techniques of hydrologic data series have develped for the purposes of the design of water resources system, the optimization of reservoir operation, and the design of flood control of reservoir, etc. While the stochastic models are usually used in most analysis of water resources fields for the generation of data sequences, the indexed sequential modeling (ISM) method based on generation of a series of overlapping short-term flow sequences directly from the historical record has been used for the data generation in the western USA since the early of 1980s. It was reported that the reliable results by ISM were obtained in practical applications. In this study, we generate annual inflow series at a location of Hong Cheon Dam site by using ISM method and autoregressive, order-1 model (AR(1)), and estimate the drought characteristics for the comparison aim between ISM and AR(1).

New algorithms are derived for nonlinear programming problems which are characterized by their large variables and equality and inequality constraints. The algorithms are based upon the introduction of the Dependent-Variable-Elimination method, Independent-Variable-Reduction method, Optimally-Ordered-Triangular-Factorization method, Equality-Inequality-Sequential-Satisfaction method, etc. For a case study problem relating to the optimal determination of load flow in a 10-bus, 13-line sample power system, several approaches are undertaken, such as SUMT, Lagrange's Multiplier method, sequential applications of linear and quadratic programming method. For applying the linear programming method, the conventional simplex algorithm is modified to the large-system-oriented one by the introduction of the Two-Phase method and Variable-Upper-Bounding method, thus resulting in remarkable savings in memory requirements and computing time. The case study shows the validity and effectivity of the algorithms presented herein.

Membrane bioreactor (MBR) and reverse osmosis (RO) membrane system was applied to the treatment and reclamation of textile wastewater in Thailand. An experiment was carried out to determine the fouling behavior and effect of anti-scalant and biocide addition to flux decline and its recovery through chemical cleaning. The RO unit was operated for one month after which the fouled membranes were cleaned by sequential chemical cleaning method. RO flux was found rapidly declined during initial period and only slightly decreased further in long-term operation. The main foulants were organic compounds and thus sequential cleaning using alkaline solution followed by acid solution was found to be the most effective method. The provision of anti-scalant and biocide in feed-water could not prevent deposition of foulant on the membrane surface but helped improving the membrane cleaning efficiencies.

The transient current components of the dRAM are analyzed and the sensing current, data path operation current and DC leakage current are revealed to be the major curretn components. It is expected that the supply voltage of less than 1.5V with low VT MOS witll be used in multi-giga bit dRAM. A low voltage dual VT self-timed CMOS logic in which the subthreshold leakage current path is blocked by a large high-VT MOS is proposed. An active signal at each node of the nature speeds up the signal propagation and enables the synchronous DRAM to adopt a fast pipelining scheme. The sensing current can be reduced by adopting 8 bit prefetch scheme with 1.2V VDD. Although the total cycle time for the sequential 8 bit read is the same as that of the 3.3V conventional DRAM, the sensing current is loered to 0.7mA or less than 2.3% of the current of 3.3V conventional DRAM. 4 stage pipeline scheme is used to rduce the power consumption in the 4 giga bit DRAM data path of which length and RC delay amount to 3 cm and 23.3ns, respectively. A simple wave pipeline scheme is used in the data path where 4 sequential data pulses of 5 ns width are concurrently transferred. With the reduction of the supply voltage from 3.3V to 1.2V, the operation current is lowered from 22mA to 2.5mA while the operation speed is enhanced more than 4 times with 6 ns cycle time.

In this study, the formulation of the developed mixed-integer programming model for a multi-reservoir system including hydro-electric power generation (park et al., 2001) has been improved for multiple reservoir system operation using risk evaluation criteria. Sequential linear programming(SLP) was applied for the linearization of the hydro-electric energy term in the model. In order to allocate monthly reservoir release reasonably the value of weight for hydro-electric energy was assigned by level of power generation hour. The improved model was applied to the five reservoirs system in the Han river. And could be confirmed the availibility of new formulation appling risk evaluation criteria.

The paper deals with the comparative study of design optimization based on various approximation techniques in strength design of riser support structure installed on floating production storage and offloading unit(FPSO) using offshore operation loading conditions. The design optimization problem is formulated such that structural member sizing variables are determined by minimizing the weight of riser support structure subject to the constraints of structural strength in terms of loading conditions. The approximation techniques used in the comparative study are response surface method based sequential approximate optimization(RBSAO), Kriging based sequential approximate optimization(KBSAO), and the enhanced moving least squares method(MLSM) based approximate optimization such as CF(constraint feasible)-MLSM and Post-MLSM. Commercial process integration and design optimization(PIDO) tools are employed for the applications of RBSAO and KBSAO. The enhanced MLSM based approximate optimization techniques are newly developed to ensure the constraint feasibility. In the context of numerical performances such as design solution and computational cost, the solution results from approximate techniques based design optimization are compared to actual non-approximate design optimization.

In this paper, we developed a delay test architecture and test procedure for clocked sequential circuit. In addition, we analyze the problems of conventional and previous method on delay test for clocked sequential circuit in IEEE 1149.1. This paper discusses several problems of Delay test on IEEE 1149.1 for clocked sequential circuit. Previous method has some problems of improper capture timing, of same pattern insertion, of increase of test time. We suggest a method called ARCH-S, is based on a clock counting technique to generate continuous clocks for clocked input of CUT. A 4-bit counter is selected for the circuit under test. The simulation results ascertain the aecurate operation and effectiveness of the proposed architecture.

The hydraulic cylinder is used for actuating a sluice gate which controls the volume of water in the reservoir. Generally, the one cylinder type is used to operate the sluice gate. In order to reduce the required cylinder force to operate the sluice gate significantly, the sequentially operated-hydraulic cylinders type is designed and the optimal locating points of cylinders are searched using the complex method that is one kind of constrained direct search method.
