The demand for a rear reflective material is continuing according to the expansion of the bifacial soar module and the effect on the re-reflection of the ground using a back sheet that is not used due to the increase in the supply of the bifacial solar module was confirmed. For analysis, a bifacial solar module with an output of 445W was connected to a single inverter of 49.84kW, and analysis of each two inverters was carried out. In the analysis of the results, it was confirmed that the generation amount increased by 5.25% compared to the case where the back sheet reflective film was not installed and it was confirmed that the increase in the generation amount was the noon time when strong solar radiation was irradiated, not the time of sunrise and sunset.

If a back analysis is used in various measurement information for the estimation of an operating subsea tunnel safety, it is possible to obtain the results within efficient error rate. With such a commercial geotechnical analysis program as FLAC3D, back analysis is performed with a DEA which was validated in previous studies. However, there is a problem that is relatively a time-consuming analysis. For this reason, beam-spring model-based FEM solver which takes shorter relative analysis time, was developed by Python language, and then combined with the built-DEA. In order to consider the assessment of safety of an operation tunnel near real-time, a program for longitudinal direction tunnel was developed due to its relative easy development for analysis solver engine.

Purpose: In this study, the safety management method supplementing the field displacement prediction management technique was performed using the numerical analysis. Method: The analysis was performed using MIDAS GTS / NX program based on the finite element method (FEM). Approximating the displacement data and displacement trend as close as possible to the collapse site, the collapse prevention method was applied after estimating the cause of collapse. Result: The cause of the collapse was estimated by soil parametar, one of the results obtained by performing the Back-analysis. As a result, it was confirmed that the free length of the anchor was insufficient, and the free length of the anchor was changed by the collapse prevention method, and the displacement was significantly reduced. Conclusion: If Back-analysis technique is used in field management, estimating the cause of collapse and suggesting a reasonable collapse prevention measure will help to reduce collase.

Background: Related to escalating health care costs and the questionable effectiveness of multiple interventions including lumbar facet joint interventions, cost effectiveness or cost utility analysis has become the cornerstone of evidence-based medicine influencing coverage decisions. Methods: Cost utility of therapeutic lumbar facet joint nerve blocks in managing chronic low back pain was performed utilizing data from a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial with a 2-year follow-up, with direct payment data from 2016. Based on the data from surgical interventions, utilizing the lowest proportion of direct procedural costs of 60%, total cost utility per quality adjusted life year (QALY) was determined by multiplying the derived direct cost at 1.67. Results: Patients in this trial on average received $5.6{\pm}2.6$ procedures over a period of 2 years, with average relief over a period of 2 years of $82.8{\pm}29.6$ weeks with $19{\pm}18.77$ weeks of improvement per procedure. Procedural cost for one-year improvement in quality of life showed USD $2,654.08. Estimated total costs, including indirect costs and drugs with multiplication of direct costs at 1.67, showed a cost of USD $4,432 per QALY. Conclusions: The analysis of therapeutic lumbar facet joint nerve blocks in the treatment of chronic low back pain shows clinical effectiveness and cost utility at USD $2,654.08 for the direct costs of the procedures, and USD $4,432 for the estimated overall cost per one year of QALY, in chronic persistent low back pain non-responsive to conservative management.

This paper presents a simplified analysis on the rotor position detection error in sensorless interior permanent magnet brushless DC motor (BLDCM) drives, wherein terminal voltage sensing based on the back-electromotive force (back-EMF) zero-crossing point detecting circuitry is employed. The effect of a rotor saliency on the back-EMF's zero-crossing point detection is analyzed using the extended EMF-based voltage equation of the interior permanent BLDCM in a stationary reference frame, and thus the overall analysis is considerably simplified compared to the conventional one. Simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A back analysis algorithm was developed to determine the major parameters for tunnel design; the elastic modulus(E) and the ratio of horizontal to vertical stress(K). The algorithm is based on direct search method and was coded by FISH language of FLAC, a commercial finite difference program. Developed code was applied on some models to verify the validity and estimate the efficiency of the algorithm. Verification by theoretical solutions and published results of Gens' research, was successful.

Tourism is a sector that plays an important role in the economic growth of Indonesia. Bandung as the capital of West Java province is known as the city with diverse tourism potential, both in the attractiveness of the city and surrounding natural beauty. DHR is a three stars resort hotel in the city with a strategic location. As a three stars resort hotel, DHR has been experiencing occupancy rate problems, consequently, it cannot often reach the set targets, both during high season and low season. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors of hotel performance that influences consumer staying back decision in the future. Questionnaires have been distributed to hotel guests to gather information regarding their interest and the performance assessment of the hotel services and facilities, and staying back decision in the future. Discriminant Analysis and Hypothesis Testing are used to determine which hotel performance variables will directly affect consumer staying back decision. The result of this study provide marketing strategy that should be implemented by the hotel management in order to increase its occupancy rate.

This paper presents the mathematical modelling analysis of Brushless Synchronous Motor(BLSM). The dynamic and the steady state characteristics of BLSM are simulated and analyzed : electromagnetic torque, speed, line voltage, and current. We used mathematical modelling to model of BLSM with sinusoidal back EMF, namely the shaft transformation referencing rotor frame from a, b, c three to produce constant torque like synchronous motor. The experiment result has already similar to compare with simulation result : torque error about 7%, speed error about 5%. The validity of proposed modelling and analysis was confirmed by the experimental result.

In this study, the elastic modulus and the initial stresses of the rock were calculated through back analysis of in-situ displacements measured during excavation of the underground caverns. Results from back analysis were employed to determine the redistributed stresses the displacements and relaxed zone in the rock around the caverns, which supplement the geological characterization results. To verify the reliability of the back analysis program the elastic modulus and the initial stresses were obtained from inputting the displacements calculated by FEM. These were compared with the assumed normalized stresses in FEM and were in a reasonable agreement with an error of more or less than 3%.

Currently, in the automotive industry, the efforts to reduce the manufacturing cost by changing the manufacturing process are continually performed. In this paper, we proposed a new manufacturing process, the roll bending process of a ring plate of automotive fuel tank instead of conventional press blanking process to reduce material loss and manufacturing cost. Finite element analysis was used to optimize the roll bending process to assure rectangular cross-section of the ring plate. Also, spring-back analysis after the roll bending process was performed and dimension of the bending die considering spring-back was analyzed. Finally, we verified a possibility for realization of the proposed method with prototypes.
