Wake effects cause wind turbine generators (WTGs) within a wind power plant (WPP) to produce different levels of active power and subsequent reactive power capabilities. Further, the impedance between a WTG and the point of interconnection (POI)-which depends on the distance between them-impacts the WPP's reactive power injection capability at the POI. This paper proposes a voltage control scheme for a WPP based on the available reactive current of the doubly-fed induction generators (DFIGs) and its impacts on the POI to improve the reactive power injection capability of the WPP. In this paper, a design strategy for modifying the gain of DFIG controller is suggested and the comprehensive properties of these control gains are investigated. In the proposed scheme, the WPP controller, which operates in a voltage control mode, sends the command signal to the DFIGs based on the voltage difference at the POI. The DFIG controllers, which operate in a voltage control mode, employ a proportional controller with a limiter. The gain of the proportional controller is adjusted depending on the available reactive current of the DFIG and the series impedance between the DFIG and the POI. The performance of the proposed scheme is validated for various disturbances such as a reactive load connection and grid fault using an EMTP-RV simulator. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme promptly recovers the POI voltage by injecting more reactive power after a disturbance than the conventional scheme.

Dexmedetomidine is an ${\alpha}2$-adrenergic receptor agonist that exhibits a protective effect on ischemia-reperfusion injury of the heart, kidney, and other organs. In the present study, we examined the neuroprotective action and potential mechanisms of dexmedetomidine against ischemia-reperfusion induced cerebral injury. Transient focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced in Sprague-Dawley rats by middle cerebral artery occlusion. After the ischemic insult, animals then received intravenous dexmedetomidine of $1{\mu}g/kg$ load dose, followed by $0.05{\mu}g/kg/min$ infusion for 2 h. After 24 h of reperfusion, neurological function, brain edema, and the morphology of the hippocampal CA1 region were evaluated. The levels and mRNA expressions of interleukin-$1{\beta}$, interleukin-6 and tumor nevrosis factor-${\alpha}$ as well as the protein expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase, cyclooxygenase-2, nuclear factor-${\kappa}Bp65$, inhibitor of ${\kappa}B{\alpha}$ and phosphorylated of ${\kappa}B{\alpha}$ in hippocampus were assessed. We found that dexmedetomidine reduced focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats by inhibiting the expression and release of inflammatory cytokines and mediators. Inhibition of the nuclear factor-${\kappa}B$ pathway may be a mechanism underlying the neuroprotective action of dexmedetomidine against focal cerebral I/R injury.

Service conditions for structures at elevated temperatures in nuclear power plant involve transient thermal and mechanical load levels that are severe enough to caeuse inelastic deformations due to creep and plasticity. Therefore, a systematic mehtod of inelastic analysis is needed for the design of structural components in nuclear poser plants subjected to such loading conditions. In the present investigation, the Chabodhe model, one of the unified viscoplastic constitutive equations, was selected for systematic inelastic analysis. The material response was integrated based on GMR ( generallized mid-point rule) time integral scheme and provided to ABAQUS as a material subroutine, UMAT program. By comparing results obtaned from uniaxial analysis using the developed UMAT program with those from Runge-Kutta solutions and experimentaiton, the validity of the adopted Chaboche model and the numerical stability and accuracy of the developed UMAT program were verified. In addition, the developed material subroutine was applied for uniaxial creep and tension analyses for the plate with a hole in the center. The application further demonstrates usefulness of the developed program.

본 논문은 커먼레일 디젤엔진의 정속운전시 배출되는 나노크기의 입자상 물질을 분석하는데 초점을 두었다. 디젤산화촉매 후단에서 나노입자상 물질의 개수농도 저감수준은 크지 않았으나 매연여과장치 후단에서 분석한 결과 1,000배 정도 저감되는 결과를 확인하였다. 고속 고부하 조건에서는 매연여과장치의 자연재생 효과로 인해 입자상 물질은 증가하였다. 연료분사시기를 BTDC $6^{\circ}CA$ 에서 ATDC $4^{\circ}CA$까지 지각시킨 결과 입자상 물질의 개수농도는 감소하였지만 최지각 조건인 ATDC $9^{\circ}CA$에서는 증가하는 결과를 확인하였다. EGR 적용시 핵화모드 입자상 물질은 저감되는 경향을 보였으며 축적모든 입자는 증가하였다.

동영상 잡음 제거에 있어서 비지역적 평균 기반 시공간 잡음 제거 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존에 제시된 비지역적 평균 기반 알고리즘은 잡음 제거에 우수한 성능을 보이지만 연산량이 많고 여러 장의 장면 기억장치가 필요하기 때문에 하드웨어 시스템 구현에 많은 어려움이 있다. 그러므로 제안된 알고리즘에서는 무한 충격 응답 기반 시간 영역 잡음 제거 알고리즘을 도입하여 움직임이 적은 영역에서는 자연스러운 잡음 제거가 가능하며 움직임이 많은 영역에서는 연산량 측면에서 효율성을 고려하여 개선된 비지역적 평균 기반 잡음 제거 알고리즘을 적용하여 움직임에 의한 흐려짐을 최소화 하면서 잡음 제거를 수행하였다. 다양한 잡음 정도를 갖는 시험 영상에 대한 실험을 통해 수치적, 시각적 측면에서 각각 비교하여 제안된 알고리즘의 성능이 기존의 알고리즘과 대등하거나 촬영 영상에 따라서는 우수한 성능을 보임을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper a simple and effective call admission control (CAC) scheme is proposed for the emerging interleave-division multiple-access (IDMA) systems, supporting a variety of traffic types and offering different quality of service (QoS) requirements and priority levels. The proposed scheme is signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) evolution based CAC (SE-CAC). The key idea behind the scheme is to take advantage of the SINR evolution technique in the process of making admission decisions, which is developed from the effective chip-by-chip (CBC) multi-user detection (MUD) process in IDMA systems. By virtue of this semi-analytical technique, the MUD efficiency can be estimated accurately. Additionally, the computational complexity can be considerably reduced. These features make the scheme highly suitable for IDMA systems, which can combat intra-cell interference efficiently with simple CBC MUD. Analysis and simulation results show that compared to the traditional CAC scheme considering MUD efficiency as a constant, the proposed SE-CAC scheme can guarantee high power efficiency and throughput for multimedia traffic even in heavy load conditions, illustrating the high efficiency of CBC MUD. Furthermore, based on the SINR evolution, the SE-CAC can make accurate estimation of available resource considering the effect of MUD, leading to low outage probability as well as low blocking and dropping probability.

발전소의 터빈 로터강의 수명을 평가하기 위하여 $630^{\circ}C$에서 등온 열처리된 7가지의 서로 다른 시편을 준비하였다. 탄소강, 스테인레스강 등의 금속재료의 유동특성을 평가하기 위하여 개발된 구형압입 시험을 통하여 서로 다르게 열화된 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V강의 기계적 물성을 측정하고 이를 인장시험에서의 결과와 비교하였다. 유동특성을 결정짓는 요소로 재료항복기울기와 구속인자지수를 사용하였다. 이는 가공경화지수의 변화가 매우 작고 불규칙적으로 나타났기 때문이다. 또한 재료항복기울기의 영향을 고려하였을 때 구속인자지수의 영향은 적은 것으로 나타났다.

점성토의 변형특성을 연구하기 위하여 공진주(RC)시험과 비틀전단(75)시험을 저변형률 및 중간 변형률하에서 실시하여 변형률의 크기,진동주파수,하중반복회수의 영향을 살펴보았다. 소 성지수가 이들의 영향을 평가하는데 중요한 변수임을 알 수 있었다. 실험에 사용된 시료로는 불 교란 실트 및 점토와 실험실에서 다져진 노상토를 사용하였다. 선형한계변형률이하에서 전단탄 성계수는 하중반복회수와 변형률의 크기에 영향을 받지 않았으며, RC시험에서 얻은 최소감소비가 1.1%에서 1.7%영역에서 존재하였다. 점성토의 선형한계변형률은 구속압과 소성지수에 따라 증가하였으며 사질토와 비교하여 넘은 선형영역을 보였다. 반복한계변형률이상의 변형률하에서는 전단탄성계수는 하중반복회수에 따라 감소하였지만 감쇠비는 영향을 받지 않았다. 진동주파수의 영향에 의해 RC시험에서 얻은 점성토의 전단탄성계수와 감쇠비는 RC시험결과보다 컸다. 전단탄성계수는 진동주파수의 대수증가에 따라 선형적으로 증가하였고 감쇠비의 경우 2Hz이하의 저주파수영역에서는 영향을 받지 않았다.

This paper summarises the results of an experimental study to investigate the flexural behaviour of reinforced concrete beams strengthened using carbon-fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminate in four-point bending. The experimental parameters included are the reinforcing bar ratio ${\rho}_s$ and preload level. Four bar ratios were selected (${\rho}_s=0.13$ to 0.86%), representing the section of two longitudinal tensile reinforcements, with diameters of 8, 14, 16, and 20 mm in order to reveal the effect of bar ratio on failure load and failure mode. Eight beams that could be considered "full-scale" in size, measuring 200 mm in width, 400 mm in total height and 2300 mm in length, were tested. Three beams were selected with different bar ratios (${\rho}_1$, ${\rho}_2$, ${\rho}_3$), and considered as control specimens (without ), while three other beams identical to the control beams with the same CFRP laminates ratio and a seventh beam with ${\rho}_{min}$ (the lowest bar ratio) were also used. In the second part of the study, two beams with the bar ratio ${\rho}_2$ were preloaded at two levels, 50 and 100% of their ultimate loads, and then repaired. This experimental investigation was consolidated using an analytical model. The experimental and analytical results indicate that the flexional capacity and stiffness of strengthened and repaired beams using CFRP laminate were increased compared to those of control beams, and the behaviour of repaired beams was nearly similar to the undamaged and strengthened beams; unlike the ductility of strengthened beams, which was greatly reduced compared to the control.
