This paper deals with analysis of articulated robot manipulator used for Arc welding and Material handling. Compared with present robot of which weight holding capacity is 6kg, this robot shows wider and symmetric working range for it's serial type mechanism. The link length is determined to have widest working range by using optimal simulation. To reduce body's weight, small AC servo motor is adopted and driving peak torque exerted at each joint is reduced by using dynamic analysis. So it is possible to reduce body's weight by 40% compared with the same class's robot and get wider working range. And by adopting modular design concept, each axis is designed to be changed easily for user's special need and repair.

A scheme of more exact overflow probability analysis is proposed for traffic regulated by dual leaky bucket. To each regulated traffic stream is allocated bandwidth and buffer independent of other traffic stream and overflow occurs when total bandwidth or buffer allocated to each traffic exceed link capacity or physical buffer size. Ratio of buffer and bandwidth allocated to each traffic stream is assumed to be constant, and this ratio is larger than the ratio of physical buffer and bandwidth due to buffer sharing effect. Numerical experiments show that this sharing effect have significant influence on overflow probability and effective bandwidth.

An improved finite element modeling technique is proposed for the assessment of load carrying capacity of partially prestressed concrete girder bridges. Based on the finite element method of analysis, shell and frame elements are used to model the slab and girders of the superstructure, respectively. In the modeling of superstructure, the emphasis is placed on the use of rigid link between the middle surface of slab an mid-plane of girder. This paper also includes the comparision of three different equations that are used in the calculation of effective moment of inertia for the partially prestressed concrete girders. Numerical analysis is performed for the unstrengthened and strengthened bridges. The obtained results are compared with those of load test for a prototype bridge. A good agreement is achieved between the numerical solutions by using the proposed method load test results.

Cheju-Haenam HVDC transmission system start it's commercial operation since 1998. JEJU island is supplied with it's about 45% of total electric power from main land with HVDC link. In JEJU island, the demand of electric power is growing every year. With a current power supply, electric power reserve rate will be below the recommended one. For a stable power supply to JEJU island, KEPCO start a construction of #2 HVDC transmission system. This report is for introduction and understanding of #2 HVDC system which will be installed between JEJU island and main land. This report includes a specification of converter station and DC cable. KEPCO expect that this system will solve the power supply problem and maximum wind power plant capacity problem as well.

In this paper, we have proposed a Parallel Resonant Soft Switching Inverter based on Delta-Modulation Method. The conventional full-bridge inverter generates switching losses due to the hard switching. The proposed inverter operates soft switching using a DC-link switch and resonant circuit. So, all of the switches in the proposed inverter operates soft switching. Therefore the proposed inverter can reduce not only switching loss but also capacity and size of passive devices due to the resonant elements. The validity of the proposed inverter is verified thorough the theoretical analysis and simulation.

The Self Healing Ring (SHR) is one of the most Intriguing schemes which provide survivability for telecommunication networks. To design a cost effective SONET ring it is necessary to consider load balancing problems by which the link capacity is determined. The load balancing problem in SONET ring when demand splitting is not allowed is considered in this paper. An efficient algorithm is presented which provides the best solution starting from various Initial solutions. The initial solution is obtained by routing ell demands such that no demands pass through an are In the ring. The proposed algorithm iteratively improves the Initial solution by examining each demand and selecting the maximum load are in its path. The demand whose maximum arc load is biggest is selected to be routed in opposite direction. Computational results show that the proposed algorithm is excellent both in the solution quality and in the computational time requirement. The average error bound of the algorithm is 0.11% of the optimum and compared to dual-ascent approach which has good computational results than other heuristics.

In order to increase system capacity and reduce the transmitting power of the user's equipment, we propose an advanced power control scheme consisting of a modified open-loop power control (OLPC) and closed-loop power control (CLPC) for land mobile satellite communication systems. The improved CLPC scheme, combining delay compensation algorithms and pilot diversity, is mainly applied to the ancillary terrestrial component (ATC). ATC link in urban areas, because it is more suitable to the short round-trip delay (RTD).

In this paper, the control strategy for high speed operation in light rail transit system is proposed. Recently, the vector control strategy is used to get high capacity control characteristic in low speed area. But Six step mode that is one pulse mode is used in high speed region to use DC link voltage to the maximum. Therefore, in high speed area, the vector control can not be used but scalar control method is used. To get a driving performance to be stabilized, the method of smooth mode change between the low speed and high speed area and PWM control is desired. So this paper proposes the control strategy using vector control include the one pulse mode. And also proposes overmodulation method that makes to change in one pulse mode softly. The performance of traction system will be verified by simulation results using MATLAB and experimental results.

An improved finite element modeling technique is proposed for the assessment of load carrying capacity partilly prestressed concrete beam bridges. Based on the finite element method of analysis, shell and frame elements are utilized to model the slab and beams of the superstructure, respectively. In the modeling of superstructure, the emphasis is placed on the use of rigid link between the middle surface of slab and mid-plane of beam. This paper also includes the comparision of three different equations that used in the calculation of effective moment of inertia for the partially prestressed concrete beams. Numerical analysis is performed for the unstrengthened and strengthened bridges. The obtained results are compared with those of load test for a prototype bridge. Agreement with the numerical solutions by using the proposed method and load test results is generally excellent.

The typical trunk lid system for vehicle is composed of a hinge having 4-bar link and gas lifter. Here, the energy regenerative brake of hydraulic driven systems is applied to the tail gate system for vehicle and removed the gas lifter. The new tail gate system is composed of a hydraulic pump by electric motor, a hydraulic motor, four check valves, an accumulator, a relief valve and a directional control valve. The dynamic characteristics of the hydraulic motor system, such as the surge pressure and response time, are investigated in both brake action and acceleration action. The capacity selection method of accumulator by mathematical model is based upon trial and error approach and computer simulation by AMEsim software is carried out.
