This paper presents a new approach using an Improved branch exchange (IBE) technique to maximize the voltage stability as well as loss minimization in radial power systems. A suitable voltage stability index (VSI) for optimal routing algorithm is developed using novel methods both a critical transmission path based on a voltage phasor approach and an equivalent impedance method. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm can automatically detect the critical transmission path to be reached to a critical load faced with voltage collapse due to additional real or reactive leading. To develop an effective optimization technique, we also have applied a branch exchange algorithm based on a newly derived index of loss change. The proposed IBE algorithm for VSI maximization can effectively search the optimal topological structures of distribution feeders by changing the open/closed states of the sectionalizing and tie switches. The proposed algorithm has been tested with the various radial power systems to show its favorable performance.

A code is developed to simulate incompressible free surface flows using the Roe's flux-difference splitting scheme. An interface of two fluids is considered as a moving contact discontinuity. The continuities of pressure and normal velocity across the interface are enforced by the conservation law in the integral sense. The fluxes are computed using the Roe's flux-difference splitting scheme for two incompressible fluids. The interface can be identified based on the computed density distribution. However, no additional treatment is required along the interface during the whole computations. Complicated time evolution of the interface including topological change can be captured without any difficulties. The developed code is applied to simulate the Rayleigh-Taylor instability of two incompressible fluids in the density ratio of 7.2:1 and the broken dam problem of water-air. The present results are compared with other available results and good agreements are achieved for the both cases.

Community search aims at finding a meaningful community that contains the query node and also maximizes (minimizes) a goodness metric. This problem has recently drawn intense research interest. However, most metric-based algorithms tend to include irrelevant subgraphs in the identified community. Apart from the user-defined metric algorithm, how can we search the natural community that the query node belongs to? In this paper, we propose a novel community search algorithm based on the concept of the k-hop and local distance dynamics model, which can naturally capture a community that contains the query node. The basic idea is to envision the nodes that k-hop away from the query node as an adaptive local dynamical system, where each node only interacts with its local topological structure. Relying on a proposed local distance dynamics model, the distances among nodes change over time, where the nodes sharing the same community with the query node tend to gradually move together, while other nodes stay far away from each other. Such interplay eventually leads to a steady distribution of distances, and a meaningful community is naturally found. Extensive experiments show that our community search algorithm has good performance relative to several state-of-the-art algorithms.

A recent unusual change in the weather is formed as a localized heavy rain in a short time. This phenomenon has caused a flash flood, and flash floods extensively have damaged human lives many times. In large river's case, the extent of loss of lives and properties has been decreased through the flood warning system by flood control stations of each stream. However, the extent of damage in other small rivers has increased reversely. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a new flood warning system against flash floods instead of the existing flood warning system. It is a specific character that the damage from flash floods in mountain streams brings much more loss of lives than large river's flood. The purpose of this study is calculating the characteristic of flash floods in streams, analyzing topographical characteristics of water basin through applying GIS techniques with the calculation as mentioned above and researching what topographical conditions have influence on hydrological flash floods in water basin. The flash flood prediction model we used is made by GIUH (geomorphoclimatic instantaneous unit hydrograph) with hydrologic-topographical technology. As applying the flash flood prediction model, this is a procedure for calculating topographical information in basin: we made a topological data up out of database with utilizing GIS, and we also produced a DEM (digital elevation model) and used it as a topographical data for determining amount of flash floods.

A new design of distributed crack sensors based on the topological change of transmission line cables is presented for the condition assessment of reinforced concrete (RC) structures during and immediately after an earthquake event. This study is primarily focused on the performance of cable sensors under dynamic loading, particularly a feature that allows for some "memory" of the crack history of an RC member. This feature enables the post-earthquake condition assessment of structural members such as RC columns, in which the earthquake-induced cracks are closed immediately after an earthquake event due to gravity loads, and are visually undetectable. Factors affecting the onset of the feature were investigated experimentally with small-scale RC beams under cyclic loading. Test results indicated that both crack width and the number of loading cycles were instrumental in the onset of the memory feature of cable sensors. Practical issues related to dynamic acquisition with the sensors are discussed. The sensors were proven to be fatigue resistant from shake table tests of RC columns. The sensors continued to show useful performance after the columns can no longer support additional loads.

We propose a new multipath-based reliable routing protocol on MANETs, Multipath-based Reliable routing protocol with Fast-Recovery of failures (MRFR). For reliable message transmission, MRFR tries to find the most reliable path between a source and a destination considering the end-to-end packet reception reliability of the routes. The established path consists of a primary path that is used to transmit messages, and the secondary paths that are used to recover the path when detecting failures on the primary path. After establishing the path, the source transmits messages through the primary path. If a node detects a link failure during message transmission, it can recover the path locally by switching from the primary to the secondary path. By allowing the intermediate nodes to locally recover the route failure, the proposed protocol can handle the dynamic topological change of the MANETs efficiently. The simulation result using the QualNet simulator shows that the MRFR protocol performs better than other protocols in terms of the end-to-end message delivery ratio and fault-tolerance capability.

We developed multimedia esophageal catheters for use with birds to measure and record ECG and angular velocity while anesthesized, at rest, and in flight. These catheters enable estimates of blood pressure based on readings given by an angular velocity sensor and by RR intervals of ECG affected by EMG. In our experiments, the catheters had the following characteristics: 1. Esophageal catheters offer a topological advantage with 8-dB SNR improvement due to elimination of electromyography (EMG). 2. We observed a very strong correlation between blood pressure and the angular velocity of esophageal catheter axial rotation. 3. The impulse conduction pathway (Purkinje fibers) of the cardiac ventricle has a direction opposite to that of the mammalian pathway. 4. Sympathetic nerves predominate in flight, and RR interval variations are strongly suppressed. The electrophysiological data obtained by this study provided especially the state of the avian autonomic nervous system activity, so we can suspect individual's health condition. If the change of the RR interval was small, we can perform an isolation or screening from the group that prevent the pandemics of avian influenza. This catheter shall be useful to analysis an avian autonomic system, to perform a screening, and to make a positive policy against the massive infected avian influenza.

위치 기반의 라우팅 기법을 사용하는 센서 네트워크에서는 구현이 간단한 그리디(greedy) 라우팅이 흔히 사용된다. 그리디 라우팅은 센서 노드의 밀도가 높은 곳에는 잘 동작하지만 그렇지 않은 곳에서는 라우팅이 실패할 가능성이 크다. 그리디 라우팅 실패 시에는 패킷을 보이드(void)로부터 빠져나오게 하는 별도의 회복(recovery) 알고리즘이 필요하고 이러한 추가적인 알고리즘은 패킷의 송수신 양과 센서의 에너지 소비량을 증가시키는 문제를 발생시킨다. 여기서 언급한 보이드란 전송할 패킷을 가진 노드가 자신보다 목적지 노드에 더 가까운 이웃 노드를 찾지 못하여 그리디 포워딩으로 더 이상 패킷을 전송하지 못하는 지역을 의미한다. 따라서 본 논문은 보이드로 인한 라우팅 문제점들을 개선하기 위해 VODUA(Virtually Ordered Distance Upgrade Algorithm)라는 효율적인 라우팅 알고리즘을 제안한다. VODUA에서는 연결 정보를 나타내는 라우팅 그래프를 노드끼리 서로 교환하고, 패킷 전송이 불가능한 노드인 stuck 노드가 발생하면 거리 비용(DC)을 사용하여 네트워크 내의 stuck 노드를 제거한다. 본 논문에서는 거리 비용을 증가시켜 stuck 노드의 패킷이 보이드를 회피하여 원하는 목적지 노드까지 성공적으로 전송할 수 있도록 하는 새로운 방식의 라우팅 알고리즘을 설명한다. 또한 회복 알고리즘과 같은 추가적인 알고리즘 없이도 패킷이 전송 가능 한 경로를 가질 수 있도록 설계하여 기존의 라우팅 기법보다 더 빠르고 적은 에너지 소모를 통해 라우팅한다. 그리고 VODUA에서는 각각의 노드들이 네트워크 전체가 아닌 한 홉(hop) 이내에서 라우팅하고 토폴로지 상태정보를 사용하지 않기 때문에 노드의 실패(failure)나 토폴로지 변화에 적응이 빠르다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 VODUA가 짧은 전송 지연 시간을 통하여 신속하게 패킷을 전송할 수 있음을 보인다. 또한 GPSR과 DUA에 대해 더 적은 홉 수를 가지는 경로로 패킷이 전송 가능함을 보인다.

현무암과 포놀라이트 조성을 가진 마그마는 분화 양상과 거시적 물성에서 많은 차이를 보이나 이에 대한 원자구조 단위의 근본적인 원인은 아직 명확히 밝혀지지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 일차원과 고해상도 이차원 고상 핵자기공명 분광분석(Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, NMR)을 이용하여 현무암질 마그마의 모델인 투휘석과 아노르다이트 공융점 조성을 가진 비정질 규산염과 포놀라이트 조성의 비정질 규산염의 Al 주변 원자 구조를 관찰하였다. $^{27}Al$ MAS NMR 실험 결과 두 조성 모두 Al 피크가 지배적인 것을 보여주며 현무암 조성의 비정질 규산염의 피크 반치폭이 포놀라이트 조성보다 약 2배 더 넓은 것으로 관찰된다. 이것은 현무암질 조성에서의 Al 주변의 위상 무질서도가 포놀라이트 조성보다 높다는 것을 의미한다. $^{27}Al$ 3QMAS NMR 실험 결과 Al과 Al이 구별되어 관찰되며 현무암 조성의 비정질 규산염에서 포놀라이트 조성에는 관찰되지 않는 Al이 약 3.3% 관찰된다. 이는 현무암질 마그마가 포놀라이트 마그마에 비해 Al 주변의 배열 무질서도가 더 큰 것을 의미한다. 사중극자 상호관계를 설명하는 계수 또한 현무암 조성의 비정질 규산염이 포놀라이트 조성의 비정질 규산염에 비해 큰 값을 나타내며 이것 또한 Al 주변의 위상 무질서도가 더 큰 것을 확증해준다. 본 논문에서 규명한 현무암과 포놀라이트 조성의 비정질 규산염의 원자 구조 차이는 점성도와 같은 조성에 따른 마그마의 물성 차이에 대한 미시적 기원을 제시한다.
