This study proposes a interim development result for the l-㎾ class small wind turbine system, which is applicable to relatively low wind speed regions like Korea and has the variable pitch control mechanism. In the aerodynamic design of the wind turbine blade, parametric studies were carried out to determine an optimum aerodynamic configuration which is not only more efficient at low wind speed but whose diameter is not much larger than similar class other blades. A light composite structure, which can endure effectively various loads, was newly designed. In order to evaluate the structural design of the composite blade, the structural analysis was performed by the finite element method. Moreover both structural safety and stability were verified through the full-scale structural test.

The purpose of this paper is to develope the parallel computation algorithm that enables it to minimize the completion tine of computation execution of the entire subtasks, under the constraints of the series-parallel precedence relation in each subtask. The developed algorithm was applied to the control of a robot manipulator functioned by multi-CPU's and to obtain the minimum time schedule so that real time control may be achieved. The completion time of computation execution was minimized by applying "Variable" Branch and Bound algorithm which was developed In this paper in determining the optimum ordered schedule for each CPU.

In this paper, a voltage-controlled frequency tunable current-mode integrator and a 3rd-order current-mode Chebyshev filter in 1.8V-$0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS is realized for software radio applications in system-on-chips. This filter is used for reconstruction purposes between a current-steering DAC and a current-mode mixer. Power consumption of the designed filter can be reduced by using a current-mode small size integrator. And also, cutoff frequency of this filter is variable between 1.2MHz and 10.1MHz, the power consumption is 2.85mW. And the voltage bias compensated circuit is used to control the voltage variation.in the designed filter.

Up to now, using adaptive control method, Identification deals with system whose entire state variables and prameters are accessible for measurement. In practical situations, all the state variables cannot be measured and it is impossible to directly apply since the parameters of the system are unknown. Therefore, in this paper, using only input-output data, such a model of the system is not available since the parameters of the system are unknown. this leads to the concept of an adptive observer in which both the parameters and the state variable of the system are identified simultaniously. Lyapunov's direct method and Kalman-Yakubovich (K-Y) lemma are employed to ensure the stability of this schemes. The feature is that the signal and adaptive gain which is generated from filter is imposed upon feedback vector and then state variables and the unknown parameters can be identified. To show the usefulness of the proposed schemes, computer simulation result of unknown second-order system shows the effectiveness of the proposed schems.

An analysis of generation and growth of multicomponent particles has been carried out to predict the size and composition distributions of particles generated in the Modified Chemical Vapor Deposition(MCVD) process. In MCVD process. scale-up of sintering and micro-control of refractive index may need the Information about the size and composition distributions of $SiO_2-GeO_2$ particles that are generated and deposited. The present work solved coupled steady equations (axi-symmetric two dimensions) for mass conservation, momentum balance. energy and species(such as $SiCl_4$, $GeCl_4$, $O_2$, $Cl_2$) conservations describing fluid flow. heat and mass transfer in a tube. Sectional method has been applied to obtain multi-modal distributions of multicomponent aerosols which vary in both radial and axial directions. Chemical reactions of $SiCl_4$ and $GeCl_4$ were included and the effects of variable properties have also been considered.

Korea Groundwater Quality Monitoring Network is a database of annual groundwater quality survey results to prevent groundwater pollution. We estimated contamination index (CI) values for each type of land use, and analyzed temporal trends of pollutant concentration data in the Groundwater Quality Monitoring Network from 2001 to 2009. Among the pollutants considered in the database, the concentrations of nitrate and chloride were higher than their standards. In the case of nitrate, recreation parks, golf courses and general waste dumping regions showed increasing trends according to linear regression analysis, whereas industrial complexes and residential regions of urgan and recreation parks showed increasing trends in the chloride concentration data. According to multiple variable linear regression analysis, EC, pH and topography were major factors influencing CI values. These results suggest that groundwater with a high CI value and increasing trend is vulnerable for potential contamination, which requires more careful groundwater pollution control.

In the water purification plant, chemicals are injected for quick purification of raw water. It is clear that the amount of chemicals intrinsically depends on water quality such as turbidity, temperature, pH and alkalinity. However, the process of chemical reaction to improve water quality (e.g., turbidity) by chemicals is not yet fully clarified nor quantified. The feedback signal in the process of coagulant dosage, which should be measured (through the sensor of the plant) to compute the appropriate amount of chemicals, is also not available. Most traditional methods focus on judging the conditions of purifying reaction and determine the amounts of chemicals through manual operation of field experts using Jar-test data. In this paper, a systematic control strategy is proposed to derive the optimum dosage of coagulant, PAC(Polymerized Aluminium Chloride), using Jar-test results. A neural network model is developed for coagulant dosing and purifying process by means of six input variables (turbidity, temperature, pH, alkalinity of raw water, PAC feed rate, turbidity in flocculation) and one output variable, while considering the relationships to the reaction of coagulation and flocculation. The model is utilized to derive the optimum coagulant dosage (in the sense of minimizing turbidity of water in flocculator). The ability of the proposed control scheme validated through the field test has proved to be of considerable practical value.

In shipbuilding industry, welding position are usually flat and vertical position at the erection stage. Application of SAW and EGW for these positions makes it possible to achieve enhanced productivity and high quality. But owing to their large size and weight it is difficult to apply these techniques in short and narrow regions. To overcome this problem, our company developed light weight and compact size 4-axis welding carriage which perform 3D weaving. The purpose of this study is to explain the development and application of intelligent welding carriage using 3D weaving pattern that can fill a large amount of welds and thereby making it possible to achieve high quality of welding. This study shows 3D weaving pattern, development of weaving database, and skill of adaptive control response for the variable gap. Also, it shows the results of procedure qualification test for the AH-grade steel when applied to the intelligent welding carriage.
