In this paper we develop a method to observe faults in semiconductor devices and transmission lines by calculating the variation of the reflection function in a dielectric microstrip line that has an open-ended termination containing an optically induced plasma region. It is analyzed with the assumption that the plasma is distributed homogeneously in laser illumination. With the non linear material of degradation, the concentration of the carrier in the part of the material has changed. Since the input wave has produced the phenomenon of reflection, the input signal to the open-ended microstrip lines can be observed on reflection to identify the location of the fault. The characteristic impedances resulting from the presence of plasma are evaluated by the transmission line model. The variation of the reflection wave in the microwave system has been calculated by using an equivalent circuit model. The transient response has been also evaluated theoretically for changing the phase of the variation in the reflection. The variation of characteristic response in differentially localized has been also evaluated analytically.

단층의 위치와 기하학적 형태를 결정하기 위하여 장성호 하류지역에서 광주단층을 가로 지르는 측선을 설정하여 중력과 전기 비저항 탐사를 수행하였다. 비저항탐사에서는 3개의 측선에 대하여 쌍극자법을 적용하였으며, 각 측선의 길이는 500m이고 전극간격은 25m이다. 비저항자료는 비저항해석에 널리 사용되고 있는 컴퓨터프로그램 "RESIS"를 이용하여 해석하였으며, 3개 측선에 대한 비저항 단면도를 얻었다. 이 단면도를 해석한 결과 광주단층과 관련된 두 개의 큰 파쇄대가 인지되었다. 중력은 측선상에서 평균 40m 간격으로 총 80개를 측정하였으며, 좀 더 정밀한 Bouguer 이상값을 얻기 위하여 간이 수준측량을 병행하였다. 역해법으로 결정한 지하밀도불연속면의 깊이는 약 650m와 120m에 나타나며, 전자는 쥬라기 화강암류와 백악기 화산암류의 경계를, 후자는 충적층의 깊이를 나타내는 것으로 생각된다. 역해법으로 얻어진 결과와 기존의 지질도, 지질단면도 및 전기비저항 연구결과를 초기모델로 하여 측정된 Bouguer이상을 만족하는 지하구조를 순해법으로 결정하였다. 그 결과 광주단층은 장력장내에서 형성된 고각의 정단층으로 나타났다.

A computer-vision based pipe-inspection algorithm is developed. The algorithm uses the modified Hough transformation and a line-scanning approach to identify the edge line and the radius of the pipe image, from which the eccentricity and dimension of the pipe-end is calculated. Line and circle detection was performed using Laplace operator with input image, which are acquired from the front and side cameras. In order to minimize the memory usage and the processing time, a clustering method with the modified Hough transformation is introduced for line detection. The dimension of inner and outer radius of pipe is calculated by the proposed line-scanning method. The method scans several lines along the X and Y axes, calculating the eccentricity of inner and outer circle, by which pipes with wrong end-shape can be classified and removed.

This paper proposes a condition classification system using wavelet transform, feature evaluation and artificial neural networks to detect faulty products on the production line of reciprocating compressors for refrigerators. The stationary features of vibration signals are extracted from statistical cumulants of the discrete wavelet coefficients and root mean square values of band-pass frequencies. The neural networks are trained by the sample data, including healthy or faulty compressors. Based on training, the proposed system can be used on the automatic mass production line to classify product quality instead of people inspection. The validity of this system is demonstrated by the on-site test at LG Electronics, Inc. for reciprocating compressors. According to different products, this system after some modification may be useful to increase productivity in different types of production lines.

Generally, the fault of transmission facilities occurs by natural and artificial causes. Also, these faults are frequently developed by the lightning, a natural phenomenon. Therefore, In this paper, we investigated the case of lightning faults for transmission lines occurred for five years in the west and south of chung-nam province, and then considered a suitable countermeasure for lighting faults in these area

This paper proposes a new weighted random pattern testing technique to detect path delay faults in combinational logic circuits. When computing the probability of signal transition at primitive logic elements of CUT(Circuit Under Test) by the primary input, the proposed technique uses the information on the structure of CUT for initialization vectors and vectors generated by pseudo random pattern generator for test vectors. We can sensitize many paths by allocating a weight value on signal lines considering the difference of the levels of logic elements. We show that the proposed technique outperforms existing testing method in terms of test length and fault coverage using ISCAS '85 benchmark circuits. We also show that the proposed testing technique generates more robust test vectors for the longest and near-longest paths.

We investigated the resistance distribution n 4"diameter SFCLS. $YBa_2CU_3O_7$ films coated in-situ with a gold layer were patterned into 3 mm wide 142 cm long meander lines by Photolithography. The limiters were tested with simulated fault currents. The resistance was uniform all over the film except at the edge. At lower source voltages, CFCLs did not quench simultaneously and the resistance distribution was less uniform. Compared with 2" diameter SFCLS 4" SFCLS had similar values and time dependence of resistivity at similar electric fields The resistance distribution was more uniform in 4" SFCLS. The area at the edge where the distribution was not uniform was around 3 mm wide in SFCLs of both sizes. The experimental results were quantitatively explained with a heat transfer concept.

Arc Fault Current is an electric discharge which is occurred in two opposite electrode. In this paper, arc current control algorithm is designed for the interruption of arc fault current which is occurred in the low voltage network. This arc is one of the main causes of electric fire. General arc current sensor has troubles for detecting arc currents, thus we would like to propose the arc current detection method without current sensor. In this paper, arc discharge currents within power lines are being detected through the arc current control algorithm.

This paper presents an integrated fault diagnosis expert system for power systems. The proposed system diagnoses various faults occurred in both substations and transmission lines even in the case that substation fault is spreaded over the network. To cope with this problem, A meta-inference method is proposed. This scheme shares same the data structure with the pre-developed intelligent operational aid expert system installed in a practical sub-control center, without modification. This advanced integrated diagnosis system is developed using a low cost personal computer owing to the special modular programming technique. Case studies show a promising possibility of the proposed method.

In development of monitoring and control systems, one of the most important points is to consider a redundancy so that the system can be operated normally although hardware faults are partly occurred. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a monitoring and control system with a redundancy function for I/O servers and communication networks. I/O servers composed with an active server and a standby server. Each server also has 3 communication ports, 2 ports of them were connected to field units and the other 1 port was connected to the other server. Field units have to be constructed to 2 communication ports connected I/O servers through communication lines. Also, server communication module was implemented for analyzing and handling fault elements. and was submodularized for linking easily with a monitoring and control module. An experiment with 2 servers and 2 field units was constructed to demonstrate its effectiveness.
