In this paper, a model reference adaptive control for the atomic force microscope (AFM) of tapping mode is investigated. The dynamics between the AFM system and al sample is mathematically modeled as a second order spring-mass-damper system with oscillatory inputs. The attractive and repulsive forces between the tip of the AFM system and the sample are derived using the Lennard-Jones potential energy. By non-dimensionalizing the displacement of the tip and the input frequency, the chaotic behavior near a resonance frequency is better depicted through the non-dimensionalized equations. Four nonlinear analysis techniques, a phase portrait, sensitive dependence on initial conditions, a power spectral density function, and a Pomcare map are investigated. Because the equations of motion derived in this paper involve unknown parameter values such as the damping effect of the air and the interaction constants between materials, the standard model reference adaptive control is adopted. Two control objectives, the prevention of chaos and the tracking of reference signal, are pursued. Simulation results are included.

With South Korea increasingly focusing on nuclear energy, the management of spent nuclear fuel has attracted considerable attention in South Korea. This study established a novel procedure for selecting safety-relevant radionuclides for long-term safety assessments of a deep geological repository in South Korea. Statistical evaluations were performed to identify the design basis reference spent nuclear fuels and evaluate the source term for up to one million years. Safety-relevant radionuclides were determined based on the half-life criteria, the projected activities for the design basis reference spent nuclear fuel, and the annual limit of ingestion set by the Nuclear Safety and Security Commission Notification No. 2019-10 without considering their chemical and hydrogeological properties. The proposed process was used to select 56 radionuclides, comprising 27 fission and activation products and 29 actinide nuclides. This study explains first the determination of the design basis reference spent nuclear fuels, followed by a comprehensive discussion on the selection criteria and methodology for safety-relevant radionuclides.

A Canadian Deuterium Uranium (CANDU) reactor core calculation was performed using lattice parameters generated by HELIOS. The HELIOS-based lattice parameters were processed by TABGEN in a form suitable for the core analysis code RFSP. The core calculation was performed and the results were compared to those of the reference calculation which uses POWDERPUFS-V (PPV) for the lattice parameter generation. The characteristics of the core calculated based on the PPV and HELIOS lattice parameters match within 0.4%$\Delta$k and 7% for the excess reactivity and the channel power distribution, respectively.

Bragg diffraction of a strong reference beam from a steady-state photorefractive grating is measured experimentally and an analytic prediction is derived from the coupled wave equations of two-beam energy coupling. The relation between Bragg diffraction and two-beam coupling is used to check the mechanism of photorefractive grating formation.

It is believed that offshore wind farms may satisfy an increasing portion of the energy demand in the next years. This paper presents a comparative study of the fatigue performances of tripod and jacket steel support structures for offshore wind turbines in waters of intermediate depth (20-50 m). A reference site at a water depth of 45 m in the North Atlantic Ocean is considered. The tripod and jacket support structures are conceived according to typical current design. The fatigue behavior is assessed in the time domain under combined stochastic wind and wave loading and the results are compared in terms of a lifetime damage equivalent load.

At the reference plant(Wolsong unit No. 1) a manual poison sampling system is provided to periodically sample gadolinium from each tank and analyze it in the laboratory to provide assurance that adequate poison concentration in each tank is maintained. The AECB required a continuous, on-line monitoring system. On Wolsong unit No. 2, process piping adapter and new instrument loops added to the Liquid Injection Shutdown System(LISS) which is part of SDS2. The new instrument loops continuously monitor SDS2 poison conductivity and initiate an alarm when the poison concentration is too low.

This paper presents design of control system for permanent magnet synchronous generator(PMSG). The gas engine make rotating mechanical energy from gas fuel energy. The rotor of synchronous generator is connected to axis of engine. And it converts the mechanical energy to the electrical energy. The control system of PMSG helps the electrical energy to flow to grid. the single phase pfc rectifier controls the DC-link voltage by controlling the current of filter inductor. If the DC-link voltage is higher than the voltage reference, the filter current could be controlled to flow to grid. The three phase inverter controls the stator current of generator. The direction of the current is controlled depends on motoring or generating mode. The feasibility of the grid-connected PMSG is verified by the experimental results with 1kW prototype.

This paper addresses on a wind power system with BESS(Battery Energy Storage System). The concerned system consists of four parts: the wind speed production model, the wind turbine model, configure capacity of the battery energy storage, battery model and control of the BESS. First of all, we produce wind speed by 4-component composite wind speed model. Secondly, the maximum available wind power is determined by analyzing the produced wind speed and the characteristic curve of wind power. Thirdly, we configure capacity of the BESS according to wind speed and characteristic curve of wind speed-power. Then, we propose a control strategy to track the power reference. Finally, some simulations have been demonstrated to visualize the feasibility of the proposed methodology.

Important factors in evaluating solar collcetor efficiency are solar radiation, temperature and flow rate of the working fluid. The effects of these factors on the energy and the exergy gained by water, the working fluid, from the collector were analyzed. The results indicated that the collector efficiency and the energy and the exergy gained by the water from the collcetor increased with the increase of solar radiation. According to the exergy analysis, as the water temperature at the inlet of the collector increased, the exergy gained by the water increased while the energy gained by the water decreased. The water temperature at the outlet of the collector could be calculated with a mean error of 2.8%, and the energy and the exergy could be calculated theoretically with mean errors of 16.8% and 19.1%, respcetively.
