The present study concerns a feasibility study for applying principal component analysis to ship dynamics in maneuver. Using the four degrees of freedom standard modular model for ship dynamics maneuver simulations of large angle zigzag tests with rudder deflection angle variations are conducted. The datasets of ship motion, hydrodynamic force, and moment during the maneuver are acquired to identify the principal modes. The covariance matrix of obtained ship dynamics variables shows a strong linear correlation between the motion, hydrodynamic force, and moment, except the surge force. Four eigenvectors of the covariance matrix are selected as the principal modes of ship dynamics. Using the principal modes, ship motion in turning circle and zigzag tests is reconstructed, showing good agreement with the original data.

The High Temperature Test Unit (HTTU) was an experimental set-up to conduct separate and integral effects tests of the Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (PBMR) core. The annular core consisted of a randomly packed bed of uniform spheres. Natural convection tests using both nitrogen and helium, and forced convection tests using nitrogen, were conducted. The maximum material temperature achieved during forced convection testing was 1200 ℃. This paper presents the numerical analysis of the flow and temperature distribution for a forced convection test using 3D CFD as well as a 1D systems-CFD computer code. Several modelling approaches are possible, ranging from a fully explicit to a semi-implicit method that relies on correlations of their associated phenomena. For the comparison between codes, the analysis was performed using a porous media approach, where the conduction and radiative heat transfer were lumped together as an effective thermal conductivity and the convective heat transfer was correlated between the solid and gas phases. The results from both codes were validated against the experimental measurements. Favourable results were obtained, in particular by the systems-CFD code with minimal computational and time requirements.

With the development of the plant industry, there has been an increasing frequency of major accidents both domestically and internationally, emphasizing the importance of plant safety. Therefore, this study aims to investigate measures to enhance the stability of piping, a key component within the plant. Upon examining the piping, erosion, buckling, and fatigue emerged as significant risk factors among various potential hazards, leading to their selection as the primary risk factors in this study. Identifying variables that can collectively mitigate these factors, the study focuses on the material, thickness, and elbow angle of the piping. The reference piping model is established as the pipeline connecting the Skim Tank and IGF within a 300BPD oil sands modular plant in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi-do. Utilizing the FEA analysis program ANSYS, the study conducts a variable analysis for the identified risk factors. The results of the analysis, through comparison and evaluation, provide evidence of the effectiveness of enhancing stability. It is observed that reducing the elbow angle significantly improves erosion and buckling, while changing to a material with high yield stress most significantly enhances stability when considering fatigue.

Two-layer coupled or composite beams with discrete shear connectors of finite dimensions are commonly encountered in pre-fabricated construction. This paper presents the development of simplified closed-form solutions for such type of coupled beams for practical applications. A new coupled beam element is proposed to represent the unconnected segments in the beam. General solutions are then developed by an inductive method based on the results from the finite element analysis. A modification is subsequently considered to account for the effect of local deformations. For typical cases where the local deformation is primarily concerned about its distribution over the depth of the coupled beam, empirical modification factors are developed based on parametric calculations using finite element models. The developed analytical method for the coupled beams in question is simple, sufficiently accurate, and suitable for quick calculation in engineering practice.

The conceptual design of the MIT modular pebble bed reactor is described. This reactor plant is a 250 Mwth, 120 Mwe indirect cycle plant that is designed to be deployed in the near term using demonstrated helium system components. The primary system is a conventional pebble bed reactor with a dynamic central column with an outlet temperature of 900 C providing helium to an intermediate helium to helium heat exchanger (IHX). The outlet of the IHX is input to a three shaft horizontal Brayton Cycle power conversion system. The design constraint used in sizing the plant is based on a factory modularity principle which allows the plant to be assembled 'Lego' style instead of constructed piece by piece. This principle employs space frames which contain the power conversion system that permits the Lego-like modules to be shipped by truck or train to sites. This paper also describes the research that has been conducted at MIT since 1998 on fuel modeling, silver leakage from coated fuel particles, dynamic simulation, MCNP reactor physics modeling and air ingress analysis.

직접 변조 방식(direct modulation)을 사용한 Modular Multilevel Converter(MMC)의 6개의 암 캐패시터 전압의 자연균형화(Natural Balancing) 현상은 여러 연구 및 실험에서 관측되고 있다. 또한, 이러한 현상의 원리뿐만 아니라, 시스템 파라미터와 밸런싱 동특성사이의 관계가 수학적인 분석을 통하여 검증되었다. 직접 변조 방식은 간접 변조 방식(indirect modulation)과 달리, 입/출력 AC 및 DC 측 제어기 외에 암 캐패시터 전압 밸런싱을 위한 순환전류 제어기가 존재하지 않지만, 캐패시터 맥동 저감을 위해 일반적으로 캐패시터 2 고조파 맥동 제어기를 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 직접 변조방식을 사용한 MMC의 2고조파 전압 맥동 제어기가 암 캐패시터 전압 자연 밸런싱에 미치는 영향을 고찰하고 분석한다. 또한, 2 고조파 전압 맥동 제어기의 유무에 따른 전압 자연 밸런싱의 동특성에 대한 비교를 400MW MMC full-scale 시뮬레이션을 통해 살펴보도록 한다.

Schools are one of the most suitable buildings for renewable energy systems because they have favourable demand profiles for renewable energy system (e.g. solar thermal collector, photovoltaic panels), modular-based building plan and large open spaces (e.g. play ground, gardens, roof) for the installation. This paper presents a methodology of the feasibility test for renewable energy systems to be installed at schools. The methodology is based on the analysis of the demand/supply profiles dynamic matching. a case study is also presented to test the applicability of the proposed assessment methodology.

The purpose of this study is to grasp musical expression in the Monastery of La Tourette, an architectural work produced by an architect, Le Corbusier and a musician, Iannis Xenakis based on a musical piece, Metastasis. The results of the study on musical expression in the Monastery of La Tourette, which was done through analysis of correlation in expression between architecture and music, and spatial characteristics of this monastery, are as follows: First, in modern architecture and music, the expression of the space-time continuum concept is emphasized. Second, the architectural characteristics in this monastery that constitute musical expression are the Modular, confliction and fluidity in composition, plastic (acoustic) shape and symbolic shape. Third, these architectural characteristics are found to be expressed as counterpoint, alteration, temporality, acoustics and canon of music.

2000년 T.S.Messerges는 데이터와 키의 이원가산 연산에서 해밍 무게에 기초한 차분 전력 분석 기술을 제안하였다. 본 논문에서는 T.S.Messerges의 분석 기술이 데이터와 키의 덧셈 mod $2^N$ 연산에 대해서도 확대 적용한 수 있음을 제안하고 이에 대한 시뮬레이션 절과를 제시한다. 데이터와 키의 이원 가산 연산은 Twofish와 같은 암호 알고리즘에서 사용되고 있으며 덧셈 mod $2^N$ 연산은 IDEA와 같은 암호 알고리즘에서 사용되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서 제안한 전력 분석 적용기술을 이용할 경우 IDEA의 키 128비트 중 덧셈 mod $2^N$ 연산에 들어가는 키 32비트를 분석해 낼 수 있다.

The strategy of open architecture control system intends to integrate manufacturing components on a single platform, so that a particular component can be easily added and/or replaced. Therefore, the control scheme is neither hardware dependent nor software dependent. In this paper a modular and object oriented approach for the open architecture structure of control systems is invesigated. A standard reference model for genetic manufacturer system, which consists of three modules; hardware module, operating system module, and application software module, is first proposed. Then a standard reference model for open architecture robot control system is suggested.
