Recently, many researches on a diagnosis of stator winding insulation of large generators are reported. They mostly utilize a trend analysis of Partial Discharge (PD). In this paper, a novel on-line monitoring system for an insulation diagnosis is proposed. This system obtains the parameters such as Maximum Partial Discharge Magnitude (QM), Normalized Quantity Number (NQN) and Dynamic Stagnation Voltage (DSV) by continuous on-line monitoring of winding insulation. It is capable of diagnosing the insulation condition by analyzing the trend of PD and utilizing the database built by the system.

Effects of alloying elements on the mechanical properties of 3.60wt%C-2.50wt%Si ductile cast iron with annealing and normalizing were investigated. Yield and tensile strengths were increased from 278 and 415 MPa to 316 and 440 MPa respectively as manganese content was increased upto 0.45wt% while elongation was decreased from 24.2 to 5.0%. The formers were increased and the latter was decreased with the increased amount of copper, molybdenum or nickel added. Meanwhile the tensile strength of annealed specimen was increased with the amount of alloying elements added, it was decreased by annealing. It was increased greatly by normalizing and the amount of alloying elements added except molybdenum.

We consider the problem of obtaining several types of simultaneous confidence bands for the survival curve under the additive risk model. The derivation uses the weak convergence of normalized cumulative hazard estimator to a mean zero Gaussian process whose distribution can be easily approxomated through simulation. The bands are illustrated by applying them from two well-known clinicla studies. Finally, simulation studies are carried outo to compare the performance of the proposed bands for the survival function under the additive risk model.

Purpose : The purpose is to assess the effects of muscle activity of normal person with contact laterally wedged insoles with strapping of varying elevations of 9, 15, 21mm. Methods : The subjects were adult males and women who had not experienced any knee injury. They were asked to performed from isometric contraction exerciese in four postures using lateral wedged. The normalized EMG activity levels(%MVC) of the vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, tibialis anterior, soleus for the four postures of the lower extremities were compared using one way repeted measures ANOVA. Results : Comparison of EMG amplitudes across all postures revealed no significant differences among all muscles(P>0.05). Conclusion : Further studies of the effect of wedged insole angle on knee varus torque in patients with medial-lateral knee osteoarthritis are needed.

A nine-month-old Pomeranian dog with exercise intolerance and syncope was presented. The dog was depressed with grade 4 systolic murmur on cardiac auscultation. Based on cardiac examination, the dog was diagnosed with severe subaortic stenosis with involvement of the anterior mitral valve. ${\beta}-blocker$ administration was initiated and clinical signs were improved, but not fully resolved. Balloon valvuloplasty was performed and the dog survived for nearly one year without clinical sign and the cardiac troponin I level was normalized. This case describes successful management of severe subaortic stenosis in a small breed dog through balloon valvuloplasty.

Neural networks (NNs) are extensively used in applications requiring signal classification and regression analysis. In this paper, a NN based threshold selection algorithm for 60 GHz millimeter wave (MMW) time of arrival (TOA) estimation using an energy detector (ED) is proposed which is based on the skewness, kurtosis, and curl of the received energy block values. The best normalized threshold for a given signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is determined, and the influence of the integration period and channel on the performance is investigated. Results are presented which show that the proposed NN based algorithm provides superior precision and better robustness than other ED based algorithms over a wide range of SNR values. Further, it is independent of the integration period and channel model.

As a basic study on the fluid-structure interaction of the shell structure, a theoretical formulation has been suggested on the free vibration of a thin-walled conical frustum shell filled with an ideal fluid, where the shell is assumed to be fixed at both ends. The motion of fluid coupled with the shell is determined by means of the velocity potential flow theory. In order to calculate the normalized natural frequencies that represent the fluid effect on a fluid-coupled system, finite element analyses for a fluid-filled conical frustum shell are carried out. Also, the effect of apex angle on the frequencies is investigated.

The coefficients of variation obtained from three typical vegetation indices of eight levels of multi-spatial resolution images in urban areas were employed to identify the optimum spatial resolution in terms of maintaining information quality. These multi-spatial resolution images were prepared by degrading 1 meter simulated, 16 meter ADEOS/AVNIR, and 30 meter Landsat-TM images. Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Perpendicular Vegetation Index (PVI) and Soil Adjusted Ratio Vegetation Index (SARVI) were applied to reduce data redundancy and compare the characteristics of multi-spatial resolution image of vegetation indices. The threshold point on the curve of the coefficient of variation was defined as the optimum resolution level for the analysis with multi-spatial resolution image sets. Also, the results from the image segmentation approach of region growing to extract man-made features were compared with these multi-spatial resolution image sets.

This paper presents a new algorithm in formulating a performance index for contingency selection method considering voltage security. Security limits defined-in terms of real power line flows and voltage magnitudes are considered in normalized subspaces where in critical contingencies are identified by a filtering algorithm using the infinite norm. Two types of limits, warning limit and emergency limit, are introduced for voltage and line flow. Usually performance indices have been constructed for real power line flows and voltages with each different criterion. This paper, however, presents a method that constructs them with the same criterion in use of the norm properties, so that we can assess security considering both of them. Rapid contingency simulation is performed using one iteration of fast decoupled load flows with LMML(Inverse Matrix Modification Lemma).

본 논문에서는 GSC(Generalized Sidelobe Canceller)를 기초로 새로운 부밴드 광대역 적응 빔포밍 구조를 제안하였다. 일반적으로 여러개의 필터계수를 갖는 광대역 빔포밍에서는 그 필터길이가 커짐에 따라 많은 계산량을 필요로 하고 그 성능이 감소한다는 단점이 있었다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 부밴드 필터구조를 이용함으로써 전밴드 필터구조에서보다 더 낮은 계산량과 그 pre-whitening 효과로 그 성능이 향상되었다. 부밴드 필터뱅크 구조에서 광대역 적응 빔포밍이 수행될 때 NLMS(Normalized Least Mean Squares) 적응 알고리즘을 이용하여 GSC의 수렴성능을 검증하였고, 각각의 부밴드 적응필터에서 MSE를 독립적으로 최소화시키는 적응 메카니즘을 사용하여 추정하였다. 모의실험을 통하여 제안한 부밴드 필터구조가 전밴드 구조에서보다 수렴성능이 더 우수함을 검증하였다.
