Carbon storage is one of the regulating ecosystem services provided by urban street trees. It is important that evaluating the economic value of ecosystem services accurately. The carbon storage of street trees was calculated by measuring the morphological parameter on the field. As the method is labor-intensive and time-consuming for the macro-scale research, remote sensing has been more widely used. The airborne Light Detection And Ranging (LiDAR) is used in obtaining the point clouds data of a densely planted area and extracting individual trees for the carbon storage estimation. However, the LiDAR has limitations such as high cost and complicated operations. In addition, trees change over time they need to be frequently. Therefore, Structure from Motion (SfM) photogrammetry with unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is a more suitable method for obtaining point clouds data. In this paper, a UAV loaded with a digital camera was employed to take oblique aerial images for generating point cloud of street trees. We extracted the diameter of breast height (DBH) from generated point cloud data to calculate the carbon storage. We compared DBH calculated from UAV data and measured data from the field in the selected area. The calculated DBH was used to estimate the carbon storage of street trees in the study area using a regression model. The results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of applying UAV imagery and SfM technique to the carbon storage estimation of street trees. The technique can contribute to efficiently building inventories of the carbon storage of street trees in urban areas.

On farm demonstration of urea treatment (5 kg urea dissolved in 60 litre water/100kg) of straw was performed at 6 different sites and treated straw was stored by three different methods i.e., plastic covered, mud plastered and existing farmers technique (mud plastered on the top and open from sides) to determine the best storage method in field. Untreated and treated samples were taken after 5 week storage period and subjected to crude protein, crude fibre and cell wall constituents analysis. In situ dry matter digestibility of straw was measured by nylon bag technique in buffalo bulls. Crude protein content increased by 100 to 153 percent in treated straw stored by different methods. Maximum increase in crude protein of treated straw was noticed in mud plastered method. Urea treatment of straw resulted in significant decrease in crude fibre contents in all the storage methods. Treatment of straw enhanced the in situ digestibility by 25-49 percent and maximum digestibility (53%) was found in mud plastered storage method. It was concluded that the mud plastered storage method for urea treated straw was found to be the best at farm level.

The proposed internet disk for mobile devices is a new technique in order for mobile devices to recognize remote storage spaces as local storage card. The proposed technique is not to upload and download data of remote sites. It virtualizes remote storage space as local storage of mobile devices. Then mobile users can use the virtualized storage space as their local storage card. Also the remote storage space can be virtualized to desktop as local hard disk. It is possible to share data between mobile devices and desktop through the proposed internet disk.

This paper presents a technique to reduce the low frequency ripple voltage of the dc output in a BIFRED converter with a small-sized energy storage capacitor. The proposed pulse width control method can be effectively used to suppress the low frequency ripple appeared in the dc output and still maintains generally good performance such as low THD of input line current and a high power factor. Using the small-sized energy storage capacitor, it has better merits of low cost and smaller size than a conventional BIFRED converter. The proposed technique is illustrated its validity and effectiveness through simulations.

We introduce a holographic data storage system for intermediating between small data sets and mass holographic data recording. It employs a holographic sequentially superimposed recording technique. We discuss a time scheduling technique for making uniform reconstruction of sequentially recorded holograms and we show experimental results. We also discuss the Bragg selectivity of sequentially recorded holograms. The maximum storage density of our system is estimated to be 224kbit/$mm^2$. Our system is useful as an intermediate recording system before recording mass holographic data in a larger system.

This paper deals with a ride-through technique for permanent-magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind turbine systems using energy storage systems (ESS). A control strategy which consists of current and power control loops for the energy storage systems is proposed. By increasing the generator speed, some portion of the turbine power can be stored in the system inertia. Therefore, the required energy capacity of the ESS can be decreased, which results in a low-cost system. In addition, the power fluctuations due to wind speed variations can be smoothened by controlling the ESS appropriately. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified not only by the simulation results for a 2[MW] PMSG wind turbine system, but also by the experiment results for a reduced-scale turbine simulator.

We design and implement an efficient storage technique to improve query processing for a large RDF data set. The proposed techniques can minimize data redundancy compared to the existing techniques by splitting relation information and data information from triple formatted RDF data. Also, we can enhance query processing speed separating and connecting the entire query steps by relation and data based on the proposed storage technique. The proposed technique can be applied to the areas, such as e-Commerce, semantic web, and KMS to store and retrieve a large RDF data set.

We studied experimentally a discrete random phase-code multiplexing technique for holographic data storage, which we believe can overcome some disadvantages of conventional random phase-code multiplexing adopting either a diffusion plate or a multimode fiber. Experimental demonstration is presented to show the potential usefulness and some characteristics of the discrete random phase-code multiplexing technique.

To develop a long term storage technique of soybean germplasm, fifty lines of soybean seeds were kept in storage room controlled by air-conditioner and dehumidifier at KAERI. The storage room was kept below 25$^{\circ}C$ of temperature and 60% relative humidity. Germinability of stored seeds was evaluated at every three or six months. On the other hand, the newly harvested seeds of the lines were accerelated aging at 40$^{\circ}C$ and 90% of relative humidity, and compared with non-accerelated seeds. The average germinability at the starting time of storage was 97% but the germinability was decreased to 62% at 42 months after storage in the storage room. The germinability seemed to be affected by seed size and seed coat color. The germinability of small seed lot tended to be higher than that of large seed lot, and the germination response in longer term of storage was greater than those of shorter term of storage. The accerelated aging test for 7 days proved to be a useful technique to pretest germinability of soybean seeds for assaying the relative storage potential.

This paper proposes the enhanced application of superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) for the effective compensation of power fluctuations based on the interleaving technique. With increases in demand for renewable energy based photovoltaic (PV) generation system, the output power fluctuations from PV generation system due to sudden changes in environmental conditions can cause serious problems such as grid voltage and frequency variations. To solve this problem, the SMES system is applied with its superior characteristics with respect to high power density, fast response for charge and discharge operations, system efficiency, etc. In particular, the compensation capability is effectively improved by the proposed interleaving technique based on its parallel structure. The dynamic performance of the system designed using the proposed method is evaluated with several case studies through time-domain simulations.
