The proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is different from the normal power supply, and it is a nonlinear, multi-input, strong coupling, the complex dynamic system with large time delay. At present, many studies on the content of the fuel cell fuel cells focus on a static process, this paper analyzed in subsequent sections of the process of fuel cell dynamic response time of transition, and then it found the method to reduce the response time during the process of load change to ensure that the stability of output power.

The best index should show the margins to the operating limit at the present operating point without much efforts. Such voltage collapse proximity index has been proposed in this study. Differently from the normal procedure in which every bus load is increased at the same propotion, bus load increase toward the direction of T/L loss increase has been applied in this study. Sample studies show the usefulness and the practical applicability in voltage stability analysis.

The effects of diffuser shapes on the flowfields of a small-size turbo-compressor have been investigated by numerically and experimentally. It is important to optimal design of each elements for developing the small-size turbo-compressor Typical range of rotating speed of a small-size turbo-compressor is 40,000-70,000rpm. Numerical analyses are conducted to the rectangular and conical shapes of diffusers. Three-dimensional, steady, viscous governing equations are solved by SIMPLE algorithm. To prove the numerical results, experimental studies for the measurements of static pressure and temperature at the inlet and outlet boundaries are performed. Comparisons of these results are executed, and reasonable agreements are acquired.

Experimental and computational studies on an turbopump inducer with and without a bearing strut were performed to evaluate the effects of a strut on the performance of an inducer. Global performance data such as head rise and efficiency, and detailed flow characteristics such as surface static pressures were measured and compared with computational results. Generally a good agreement is observed between experimental and computational results, but some discrepancies are observed due to complex flow features such as backflows at the inlet and strut/inducer interactions. For the flow rates where the backflow region is large, installing a strut enhanced the hydraulic performance of the inducer by diminishing the size of the backflows. The results also show that the strut has negligible effect on the suction performance of the inducer.

This paper presents an optimization algorithm for a stable Self Dynamic Neural Network(SDNN) using genetic algorithm. Optimized SDNN is applied to a problem of controlling nonlinear dynamical systems. SDNN is dynamic mapping and is better suited for dynamical systems than static forward neural network. The real-time implementation is very important, and thus the neuro controller also needs to be designed such that it converges with a relatively small number of training cycles. SDW has considerably fewer weights than DNN. Since there is no interlink among the hidden layer. The object of proposed algorithm is that the number of self dynamic neuron node and the gradient of activation functions are simultaneously optimized by genetic algorithms. To guarantee convergence, an analytic method based on the Lyapunov function is used to find a stable learning for the SDNN. The ability and effectiveness of identifying and controlling a nonlinear dynamic system using the proposed optimized SDNN considering stability is demonstrated by case studies.

Preliminary design of a ground plate, a device installed close to the aircraft model for wind tunnel test to simulate the ground effect, was performed by a numerical simulation. A two-dimensional numerical study was performed initially to decide the optimal leading edge and flap configurations. Then, three-dimensional studies were conducted to decide the optimal flap deflection angle for pressure distribution reduction since the plate and the plate supporting system generate static pressure difference between the upper and lower flow regions. Three-dimensional simulation additionally studied the effect of the clearance between the plate and the wind tunnel side wall. For the efficiency of computation, half model was simulated and a symmetric boundary condition was applied on the center plane. Based on the preliminary design, a ground plate was designed, manufactured and tested at the Korea Aerospace Research Institute(KARI) wind tunnel. The measured pressure differences versus flap deflection angle agreed well with the predicted results.

We present a methodology to validate with monitoring data finite element models of existing concrete dams: numerical analyses are performed to assess the structural response under the effects of seasonal loading conditions, represented by hydrostatic pressure on the upstream-downstream dam surfaces and thermal variations as recorded by a thermometers network. We show that the stiffness effect of the rock foundation and the surface degradation of concrete due to aging are crucial aspects to be accounted for a correct interpretation of the real behavior. This work summarizes some general procedures developed by this research group at Politecnico di Milano on traditional static monitoring systems and two significant case studies: a buttress gravity and an arch-gravity dam.

A subspace-based identification method of the Wiener model, consisting of a state-space linear block and a polynomial static nonlinearity at the output, is used to retrieve from discrete sample data the accurate information about the nonlinear dynamics. Wiener model may be incorporated into model predictive control (MPC) schemes in a unique way which effectively removes the nonlinearity from the control problem, preserving many of the favorable properties of linear MPC. The control performance is evaluated with simulation studies where the original first-principles model for a continuous MMA polymerization reactor is used as the true process while the identified Wiener model is used for the control purpose. On the basis of the simulation results, it is demonstrated that, despite the existence of unmeasured disturbance, the controller performed quite satisfactorily for the control of polymer qualities with constraints.

In this paper, the applicability of strain data to a strain-energy-based damage evaluation methodology in detecting damage in a beam-like structure is demonstrated. For the purpose of this study, one of the premier damage evaluation methodology based on modal amplitudes, the damage index method, is expanded to accomodate strain data, and the numerical and experimental verifications are conducted using numerical and experimental data. To compare the relative performance of damage detection, the damage evaluation using acceleration data is also performed for the same damage scenarios. The experimental strain and acceleration data are extracted from laboratory static and dynamic tests. The numerical and experimental studies show that the strain data as well as acceleration data can be utilized in detecting damage.

This paper presents the modeling and contingency analysis of Jeju power system. For the analysis of contingency with simulation, thermal power plants, current source type HVDC systems, wind farms, STATCOMs and Jeju power load are modeled by PSCAD/EMTDC program. And three kinds of simulation are carried out. Firstly, two STATCOMSs are in normal operation. Secondly, one STATCOM is in fault. Lastly, all of STATCOMs are in fault. These comparative studies will be useful for evaluating the effectiveness of STATCOM to stabilize for the Jeju power system.
