Multilevel modulation schemes are known to be highly bandwidth efficient. By varying modulation level adaptively according to channel conditions (i.e. adaptive QAM schemes or AQAM), high bandwidth efficiency can be achieved. This paper considers the effect of time delay on the adaptive QAM schemes in dispersive fading channels. In order to undertake investigations effectively, a simulator has been developed. The simulation results show that the BER performance obtained for the wideband channel with a delay spread of 0.75 $\mu$sec is better than 10$^{-4}$ with a SNR value of 40 ㏈ and ABPS is found to be approximately 5.5.

Real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) which combines physical experiment with numerical simulation is an advanced method to investigate dynamic responses of structures subjected to earthquake excitation. The desired displacement computed from the numerical substructure is applied to the experimental substructure by a servo-hydraulic actuator in real time. However, the magnitude decay and phase delay resulted from the dynamics of the servo-hydraulic system affect the accuracy and stability of a RTHS. In this study, a robust stability analysis procedure for a general single-degree-of-freedom structure is proposed which considers the uncertainty of servo-hydraulic system dynamics. For discussion purposes, the experimental substructure is a portion of the entire structure in terms of a ratio of stiffness, mass, and damping, respectively. The dynamics of the servo-hydraulic system is represented by a multiplicative uncertainty model which is based on a nominal system and a weight function. The nominal system can be obtained by conducting system identification prior to the RTHS. A first-order weight function formulation is proposed which needs to cover the worst possible uncertainty envelope over the frequency range of interest. Then, the Nyquist plot of the perturbed system is adopted to determine the robust stability margin of the RTHS. In addition, three common delay compensation methods are applied to the RTHS loop to investigate the effect of delay compensation on the robust stability. Numerical simulation and experimental validation results indicate that the proposed procedure is able to obtain a robust stability margin in terms of mass, damping, and stiffness ratio which provides a simple and conservative approach to assess the stability of a RTHS before it is conducted.

This study presents both experimental and numerical investigation of ignition delay time of n-heptane and n-butanol binary fuel. The $O_2$ concentration in the mixture was set to 9-10% to make high exhaust gas recirculation( EGR) rate condition which leads low NOx and soot emission. Experiments were performed using a rapid compression machine(RCM) at compressed pressure 20bar, several compressed temperature and three equivalence ratios(0.4, 1.0, 1.5). In addition, a numerical study on the ignition delay time was performed using CHEMKIN codes to validate experimental results and predict chemical species in the combustion process. The results showed that the ignition delay time increased with increasing the n-butanol fraction due to a decrease of oxidation of n-heptane at the low temperature. Moreover, all of the binary fuel mixtures showed the combustion characteristics of n-heptane such as cool flame mode at low temperature and negative-temperature-coefficient(NTC) behavior. Due to the effect of high EGR rate condition, the operating region is reduced at lean condition and the ignition delay time sharply increased compared with no EGR condition.

기존 논문들처럼 지체시간 감소만으로 PPLT 특성을 반영하여 PPLT의 적용 여부를 판단하는 것은 한계가 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 지체시간 외에 통과 좌회전 교통량, 상충위험수를 사용하여 PPLT 적용방안을 제시하였다. 분석결과 좌회전 교통량이 용량 이상이면서 많을수록, 대향 직진 교통량은 용량 미만이면서 적을수록 PPLT 효과가 증가하였다. 그러나 좌회전 교통량이 용량 미만에서는 선행 신호대기 차량들이 비보호로 교차로를 통과하게 되어 지체시간은 일부 감소하지만 전체 통과 좌회전 교통량은 증가하지 않고 상충위험률은 증가하게 된다. 그리고 대향 직진 차로수가 1, 2차로에서는 상충위험수가 유사하지만 3차로 이상이 되면 크게 증가한다. 또한 PLT와 PPLT의 통과 좌회전 교통량 차이는 지체시간 차이와 유사한 패턴을 보이면서 지체시간보다 PPLT 적용 범위가 더 넓고 상충위험수와 연관성이 높게 분석되었다. 따라서 PPLT의 교통류 특성과 상충위험수 등을 고려하기 위해서는 통과 좌회전 교통량이 지체시간보다 유리하다. 즉, PLT와 PPLT의 통과 좌회전 교통량, 지체시간 차이와 대향직진 3차로 이상에서의 상충위험수를 동시에 고려하여 PPLT 적용 여부를 판단하면 지체시간만을 적용해온 기존 방안에 비해 합리적인 방안이 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Purpose: Prolonged stay in the emergency department (ED), which is closely related with the time interval from the ED visit to a decision to admit, might be associated with poor outcomes for trauma patients and with overcrowding of the ED. Therefore, we examined the factors affecting the delay in the decision to admit severe trauma patients. Also, a multidisciplinary department system was preliminarily evaluated to see if it could reduce the time from triage to the admission decision. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary care university hospital without a specialized trauma team or specialized trauma surgeons from January 2009 to March 2010. Severe trauma patients with an International Classification of Disease Based Injury Severity Score (ICISS) below 0.9 were included. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to find independent variables associated with a delay in the decision for admission which was defined as the time interval between ED arrival and admission decision exceeded 4 hours. We also simulated the time from triage to the decision for admission by a multidisciplinary department system. Results: A total of 89 patients were enrolled. The average time from triage to the admission decision was $5.2{\pm}7.1$ hours and the average length of the ED stay was $9.0{\pm}11.5$ hours. The rate of decision delay for admission was 31.5%. A multivariable regression analysis revealed that multiple trauma (odds ratio [OR]: 30.6, 95%; confidence interval [CI]: 3.18-294.71), emergency operation (OR: 0.55, 95%; CI: 0.01-0.96), and treatment in the Department of Neurosurgery (OR: 0.07, 95%; CI: 0.01-0.78) were significantly associated with the decision delay. In a simulation based on a multidisciplinary department system, the virtual time from triage to admission decision was $2.1{\pm}1.5$ hours. Conclusion: In the ED, patients with severe trauma, multiple trauma was a significant factor causing a delay in the admission decision. On the other hand, emergency operation and treatment in Department of Neurosurgery were negatively associated with the delay. The simulated time from triage to the decision for admission by a multidisciplinary department system was 3 hours shorter than the real one.

본 연구에서는 심혈관시스템 내의 압력 변화를 감지하는 압수용체 중 가장 대표적인 대동맥 압수용체의 시뮬레이션을 위한 심활성도 압반사 제어모델을 제안하였다. 그리고 제안된 모델은 압반사 조절, 시간지연을 포함한 전기회로 모델들로 구성하였으며, 대동맥동의 압반사 조절시 시간지연이 심주기와 일회 심박출량에 주는 영향을 관찰할 수 있도록 하였다. 심활성도 압수용체 제어 모델에서 시간지연의 기전은 대동맥동 압수용체에서 감지된 압력 정보가 구심성 신경으로 전달되고, 이 정보는 중추신경을 거쳐 원심성 신경으로 전달되어 제어 기능을 수행한다. 제안된 모델의 시뮬레이션 결과 시간지연에 따라 심혈관시스템 변이성의 세가지 패턴을 관찰할 수 있었다. 먼저 시간지연이 2.5초 이상일 경우에는 대동맥압, 일회심박출량, 심박동수가 비주기적으로 발생하고 불규칙인 것을 관찰할 수 있었고, 시간지연이 0.1초에서 2.5초 사이일 경우에는 주기적인 진동이 발생함을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그리고 시간지연이 0.1초 이하인 경우에는 심박동수와 동맥압-심박동수의 궤적은 안정상태를 유지함을 관찰할 수 있었다.

The chemistry and ignition delay of hydrogen/air/HFP premixed mixtures was investigated numerically with unsteady perfectly stirred reactor(PSR). The detailed chemistry of 93 species and 817 reaction mechanism was introduced for hydrogen/air/HFP mixtures. The results shows the temporal concentration variations of major or reactants such as hydrogen and oxygen during autoignition were similar to the spatial distribution of premixed flame while water vapor produced at the ignition temperature was decomposed later, which can be clarified with the relate species production rates that the the re-growth (or shoulder) of OH concentration is a result of F radicals attacking $H_20$ forming OH and HF. For the stoichiometric $H_2$/air mixture inhibited by 20% HFP, HFP thermal decomposition reaction prevails over the radical attack such as H at initial stage. Even though relatively large HFP addition contributes to delay the ignition, chemical effect on the ignition delay is not effective because of late thermal decomposition of HFP. The most small ignition delay was observed at a slightly fuel lean condition ($\phi$ = 0.9), and temperature dependency of ignition delay was clearly shown near 900 K.

We build and analyze some types of queueing model to discuss capacity dimensioning of access links of a LAN interworking unit connected to the Internet backbone network. We assume that the IWU has a FIFO buffer to transmit IP packets to the Internet through the backbone. In order to analyze the system, we use a Poisson process and an MMPP process as input traffic models of IP packets and we use a general service time distribution as a service time model. But we use both an exponential service time and a deterministic service time in numerical examples for simple and efficient performance comparisons. As performance measures, we obtain the packet loss probability and the mean packet delay. We present some numerical results to show the effect of arrival rate, buffer size and link capacity on packet loss and mean delay.

Fieldbus provides a real-time data communication among field devices in the process control and manufacturing automation systems. In this paper, a Petri Net model of the 1993 draft of IEC/ISA fieldbus which is proposed as an international standard of fieldbus network is developed. Based on the Petri Net model, discrete-event simulation model of IEC/ISA fieldbus network is developed. This paper evaluates the network induced delay in the data link layer of IEC/ISA fieldbus using the simulation model. In addition, an integrated discrete-event/continuous-time simulation model of fieldbus system and distributed control system is developed. This paper investigates the real-time data processing capability of IEC/ISA fieldbus and the effect of network-induced delay to the performance of control system.
