본 연구의 목적은 발전소의 정상적인 출력운전을 위해 필요한 주요 계통의 기능에 영향을 미쳐 발전소 불시정지를 유발할 수 있는 핵심 기기, 즉, 발전정지유발기기의 설치 개소를 체계적인 방법을 통하여 정밀 분석하고, 해당 기기의 고장모드와 그 영향을 검토하여 이를 방지하기 위한 대책을 수립하도록 하는 것이다. 발전정지유발기기의 평가는 발전소 종사자로 하여금 가동 중 발전소에서 발생 가능한 발전정지 영향기기와 그들의 상호관계를 이해하고, 정량적 평가를 통해 해당기기들의 발전소 발전정지 영향을 시각적으로 확인하여 불시 발전정지를 예방할 수 있는 대응 논리를 인지할 수 있도록 하는데 그 목적이 있다. 원자로냉각재계통에 대한 발전정지유발기기(SPV, Single Point Vulnerability)를 분석하기 위해 고장모드영향분석(FMEA, Failure Mode Effect Analysis)을 수행하고 상세 고장수목을 개발하여 통합단위의 계통 분석을 수행하였다. 분석결과 원자로냉각재계통의 발전정지유발기기는 원자로냉각재 펌프와 가압기 주살수 밸브의 제어회로에 집중되어 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper proposes a fault diagnosis system for an induction motor. This system uses empirical mode decomposition(EMD) to extract fault signatures and multi-layer perceptron(MLP) neural network to facilitate an accurate fault diagnosis. EMD can not only decompose a signal adaptively but also provide intrinsic mode functions(IMFs) containing natural oscillatory modes of the signal. However, every IMF does not represent fault signature, an IMF selection algorithm based on harmonics and their energy of each IMF is proposed. The selected IMFs are utilized for fault classification using MLP and this system shows approximately 98 % diagnosis accuracy for the fault vibration signal of the induction motor.

Reliability plays a pivotal role in the development of medical instruments. A hyperbaric oxygen chamber, as a medical/health device, is known to help medical therapy for diversity of diseases through provision of high purity oxygen. The use of hyperbaric oxygen chamber is expected to increase in the future and study to examine reliability and safety is needed. We have performed reliability assessment for a newly developed hyperbaric oxygen chamber in this study. We first briefly discussed the system structure and mechanism. We then performed FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) for the chamber. We drew major failure modes affecting the system performance and performed in depth analysis for measuring the expected effects.

신뢰성성장시험은 주어진 기간 동안에 고장모드를 체계적이고 영구적으로 제거하여 신뢰성을 향상시키려는 것이 목적이다. 이러한 활동은 대부분 매우 제약된 시간에 이루어져야 함으로 신제품개발프로그램에 있어서는 가속수명 시험이 필수적인 신뢰성성장시험 도구로 적용된다. 본 연구에서는 가속수명시험 하에서 신뢰성성장을 계획하고 분석하는데 유용한 도구로 사용할 수 있는 가속 신뢰성성장모델을 제시하였다. 시험전략은 test-find-test 전략으로서 시험중 고장모드가 발견되어도 이 문제에 대한 근본적 조치는 시험이 완성된 이후에 이루어지는 경우를 가정하였다. 이는 시험을 중간에 중단하고 시작하는 비용이 매우 높거나, 시스템이 고도로 복잡하여 완전히 분해하는데 어려움이 있는 경우에 적용된다.

In this paper, an efficient technique is developed to predict failure probability of three failure modes(case rupture, fracture and bolt breakage) related to solid rocket motor case due to the inner pressure during the mission flight. The overall procedure consists of the steps: 1) design parameters affecting the case failure are identified and their uncertainties are modelled by probability distribution, 2) combustion analysis in the interior of the case is carried out to obtain maximum expected operating pressure(MEOP), 3) stress and other structural performances are evaluated by finite element analysis(FEA), and 4) failure probabilities are calculated for the above mentioned failure modes. Axi-symmetric assumption for FEA is employed for simplification while contact between bolted joint is accounted for. Efficient procedure is developed to evaluate failure probability which consists of finding first an Most Probable Failure Point(MPP) using First-Order Reliability Method(FORM), next making a response surface model around the MPP using Latin Hypercube Sampling(LHS), and finally calculating failure probability by employing Importance Sampling.

This paper proposes the novel open-fault detection/isolation scheme of inverter switch in two-phase excited VSI. This scheme identify open-fault using voltage sensor at lower switches of each phase according to the operating mode. It has benefit of simple implementation, fast detection and robustness in the load so that stab of the system is improved. Also, at faulty mode, it minimizes faulty effect and makes possible continuous operation through the reconfiguration procedure applying four-switch operation. The validity of proposed fault detection scheme is verified by experimental results.

This study is an evaluation of seismic fragility function using the HAZUS program for railway bridge systems, based on the results of previous research on seismic safety factor. First, a fragility function for each of the bridge members was evaluated according to the damage criteria and failure mode. Subsequently, bridge system fragility was evaluated using a fault tree to describe damage status. Finally, a fragility evaluation method for the bridge system was developed, based on the safety factor derived from the previous research.

위성의 전지는 위성의 수명과 직접적인 영향을 갖고 있으며 이것의 정상동작여부에 따라 위성의 안정적인 임무수행여부가 결정된다. 상대적으로 일반화된 셀 모델링의 최근 개발은 NiH2셀의 동특성을 시뮬레이션 하기 위한 기본적인 원리에 기반을 둔 접근방식이다. 그러나 이러한 일반적인 방정식을 통해 비선형성과 전력상태를 포함하는 전지 특성을 예측하는 것은 사실상 불가능하다. 본 연구에서는 다층신경회로망을 이용하여 비선형 특성를 갖는 니켈-하이드로진 전지 특성을 모델링 하였으며, 모델링된 상수값은 위성의 식시간 동안의 전지 전력상태 분석을 위해 사용되었다. 모델링 결과의 정확성을 확인하기 위해 니켈-하이드로진 전지시험결과 분석자료와 비교 검토 되었다. 전지 동작모드는 정상동작모드와 실패모드로 나누어 분석되었다. 정상동작모드는 위성의 식시간 동안 아크젯 동작 여부에 의해 각각 분석되었으며, 또한 태양전지와 배터리 셀 일부의 고장으로 인한 실패모드에서의 전지전력상태가 분석되었다.
