Both shifiting the input signal's frequencies by a fixed frequency and compressing the input signal's bandwidth have been known to be effective in improving the stability margin of public adress systems operating in reverberant spaces. This paper describes the effect of an alternative approach of improving the acoustic-feedback stability and yet maintaining speech inteligibility by bandwidth compression and expansion. Conditions are derived for this technizue to be realized and an experimental system has been made - up. A series of experiments has been performed in small spaces and the results have shown that more than 5dB improvement can be obtained in the stability margin.

A conceptual design on the link budget of TC&R RF subsystem which transfers command and telemetry data as RF signal between the ground system and the 2005SAT spacecraft is presented in this paper. In order to perform the analysis of the link budget, we divided the analysis process into two processes, i.e., uplink and downlink process. For the uplink the power flux density at the spacecraft and the margin of the command receiver are calculated. In the case of the downlink the downlink EIRP and the margin of C/ No and Eb / No at the ground station are calculated. Through the uplink performance analysis, the power at the command receiver has well efficient margin, and the margin of C/ No and Eb / No is also fully proper for the downlink case.

This paper presents a method to determine parameters of BTB (back-to-back) converters in terms of the enhancement of interface flow margins. Interface flow margin is by definition a measure of how much active power can be transferred from the external areas to the study area with the fixed load demand, and it is mainly constrained by system voltage stability. BTB converters are controllable equipments with the active power flow through them, and its DC link in fact can divide the AC systems at the location and hence can reduce the fault current level. This paper first cals margin sensitivities at the nose point of F-V curves and formulates an optimization problem to update the BTB parameters to improve the margins. This procedure is repeated performed until the required margin enhancement is achieved.

This paper presents a generation rescheduling method for the enhancement of transient stability in power systems. The priority and the candidate generators for rescheduling are calculated by using the energy margin sensitivity. The generation rescheduling formulates the Lagrangian function with the fuel cost and emission such as NO_x and SO_x from power plants. The generation rescheduling searches for the solution that minimizes the Lagrangian function by using the Newton’s approach. While the Pareto optimum in the fuel cost and emission minimization has a drawback of finding a number of non-dominated solutions, the proposed approach can explore the non-inferior solutions of the multiobjective optimization problem more efficiently. The method proposed is applied to a 4-machine 6-bus system to demonstrate its effectiveness.

In this paper the concept of voltage stability operating limit in optimal power flow problem is described. A methodology of optimal power flow considering voltage stability margin is proposed based on auxiliary constraint to get a secure dispatch solution. The look-ahead margin is used to shift dispatch solutions to the secure direction in proposed framework. The a1gorithm proposed is successfully tested on IEEE 30-bus system.

This paper proposes a guideline of choosing the optimum stabilizer input considering the gain margin of power system stabilizer between the optimum stabilizer gain and the allowable maximum stabilizer gain in accordance with the five inputs, such as generator shaft speed, bus frequency, electrical power, accelerating power and bus terminal voltage. The local mode damping and exciter mode damping are considered with increasing the stabilizer gain to determine each gain margin of the inputs.

In this work, regular rotational gaits of the quadruped crawling robot required to change its moving direction without affecting be its orientation and its static stability margin are studied. The regular rotational gaits provide the quadruped crawling robot with omnidirectional characteristics. However, the ideal foothold region for each of legs of the quadruped crawling robot is assumed for simplicity. Nonetheless, it is expected that the results of this paper will provide the insight for both design of legs of the crawling robot with omnidirectional characteristics as well as its operation of the crawling robot system with specified stability margin.

Wall thinning of carbon steel pipe components due to Flow-Accelerated Corrosion (FAC) is one of the most serious threats to the integrity of steam cycle piping systems in Nuclear Power Plants (NPP). Since the mid-1990s, secondary side piping systems in Korean NPPs have experienced wall thinning, leakages and ruptures caused by FAC. Korea Electric power Research Institute (KEPRI) and Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power Co., LTD. (KHNP) have conducted a study to develop the methodology for systematic pipe management and established the Korean Thinned Pipe Management Program (TPMP). To effectively maintain the integrity of piping system, FAC engineer should understand the criterions of the structural integrity evaluation and the safety margin assessment for the thinned pipe component. This paper describes the technical items of TPMP, and shows the example of the integrity evaluation and safety margin assessment for three thinned pipe component of a NPP.
