Extensive computer simulations to account for the randomness in the process of seismic demand estimation have been a serious obstacle to the adoption of probabilistic performance assessments for the decision of applying seismic intervention schemes. In this study, a method for rapid fragility assessments based on a response database and the fragility contour method are presented. By the comparison of response contours in different formats, it is shown that representing maximum responses in ductility demand is better for the investigation of the effect of structural parameter changes on seismic demands than representations in absolute values. The presented fragility contour enables designers to practically investigate the probabilistic performance level of every possible retrofit option in a convenient manner using visualized data sets. This example demonstrates the extreme efficiency of the proposed approach in performing fragility assessments and successful application to the seismic retrofit strategies based on limit state probabilities.

In the initial stage of the communications between a base station and a satellite transponder, the base station transmits the frequency-sweeping un-modulated up-link carrier within a certain frequency range to acquire the doppler frequency shift and signal power between the base station and the satellite in orbital flight. The satellite transponder acquires and tracks the carrier in order to initialize the communication. To control such initialization process, the satellite receiver should analyze the input carrier signal in various ways. This paper presents an SNR estimation algorithm to control the initialization process. The proposed algorithm converts the input signal into the baseband polar coordinate representation and estimates the SNR via the statistics of the angular signal components as well as the status parameters to control the receiver. The Monte-Carlo simulations shows the validity of the estimation proposed.

This paper presents a technique to implement embedded systems using interrupts of the one-chip microcontroller with many peripherals based on a multiple finite state machines model. The multiple finite state machine model utilizes the structure of FSMD used for hardware design and the features of flow control by interrupts. The main finite state machine corresponds to the main program and the sub-state machines corresponds to the interrupt subroutines. Therefore, interrupts from the peripherals can be processed immediately in the sub-state machines. The request and reply variables are used to interface between the finite state machines. Additional operating system is not necessary for the context switching between the main state machine and the sub-state machine, because the flow-control caused by interrupt can be replaced with the switching. An embedded system modeled on multiple finite state machine with ASM charts can be easily implemented by the conversion of ASM charts into C-language programs. This implementation technique can be easily adopted to the hardware oriented embedded systems because of the detail description of the model and the fast response to the interrupt events in the sub-state machine.

In this paper, a processor architecture is proposed based on the state space implementation technique for real time processing of 2-D discrete wavelet transform(DWT). It conducts 2-D DWT operations in consideration of row and column direction simultaneously, thus can reduce latency due to memory access for storing intermediate results. It is a VLSI architecture suitable for real time processing. The proposed architecture includes only four multipliers and four adders, and NK-N internal memory storage, where K denotes the length of filter. It has a small hardware complexity. Therefore it is very suitable architecture for real time, embedded applications such as web camera server. Since the processor is easily extended to array structure, it can be applied to various image processing applications.

In this paper, we present an optimal design method for wave power generators using the response surface analysis. Especially, in our method, we reduce the mechanical loss by selecting the linear generator whose linear movement can be converted to the electrical energy directly with the vertical movement of waves. Therefore, we calculate the exciting force acting on the drive device in a slow-wave condition and determine the winding process with a ratio of the slots and poles for the improvement of energy conversion efficiency. In addition, we employ the regression analysis for deriving the shape factors of the stator and the translator, which have a significant effect on the performance of a generator. We choose the best design variables through the response surface analysis, and then we study the optimization method for designing the efficient experiment using the analysis results. Finally, we show the validity of the proposed method through the simulation results.

As global growth has gradually declined, the Customer to Customer (C2C) market has expanded. And the growth potential of the C2C market is getting higher than in the past. Therefore, in this study, we examined what factors affect the price of used products within the C2C market. In order to examine the factors, we used data provided by Kaggle, which is a data science platform, and Mercari, Japan's largest C2C community marketplace platform. In research methods, the characteristics of the products were selected such as product categories, product status, shipping costs, product brands, and the data were analyzed using a linear mixing model to predict the price of C2C used goods. As a result, the variable that most affected the price was the shipping cost. When the seller paid for the shipping cost, the price would drop more than if the buyer had to pay. This study has been shown that the shipping costs is also an important factor in the used market, which can provide practical implications for customers of real transactions.

긴급보호제어시스템(SPS, Special Protection System)은 일반적인 보호동작 범위를 벗어난 외란에 대해서 계통 전지역의 보호를 목적으로 하는 광역시스템 보호기술이다. 따라서 SPS는 외란 시에 계통 장비의 보호보다는 계통을 보호함으로써 전력 공급능력 향상에 주안점을 두게 된다. SPS는 자주 동작하지 않고 평소에는 대기 상태로 있으며, 긴급한 동작이 요구되기 때문에 많은 경우에 그 동작이 미리 결정되어 있다. SPS는 입력변수나 전력계통에의 영향에 따라 분류할 수 있는데, 입력변수에 따라서는 계통 응답에 기초한 SPS와 사고에 기초한 SPS로 나눌 수 있다. 발전기 탈락, 부하 차단이 SPS의 주요 보호 동작이며 이 외에 가스터빈이나 양수발전기 기동, AGC 제어, HVDC 고속전력변환, 분로기기의 자동스위칭 등의 제어 동작이 있다. 우리나라의 경우에는 주로 동기탈조 방지를 위한 발전기 탈락의 동작을 하는 SPS가 설치, 운전되고 있다.

In this paper, we consider an improved deformation method of IFS(iterated function system) fractal using codes of fractal points. In the existing deformation methods, the intermediate results of position dependent partial deformation propagate randomly due to the randomly selected maps of iteration. Therefore, in many cases, the obtained results become somewhat monotonous feeling shapes. To improve these limitations, we propose a method in which the selection of maps are controlled by codes of fractal points. Applying this method, we can obtain interesting fractal deformation conforming with its fractal features. Also, we propose a simple method, incorporating state variables, that can be applied to deformation of some fractal features other than position coordinates.

본 논문에서는 풍력 발전 시스템의 시뮬레이션을 위한 MATLAB/Simulink 기반의 소프트웨어를 개발 하였다. 풍력 발전 시스템을 6가지의 주요 요소 (바람, 기계 요소, 전기 기기, 제어, 전력 변환기, 기타 요소)로 분류 하여 라이브러리를 개발하였고 각각의 모델들은 해당하는 대수방정식 혹은 미분방정식으로 표현하여 구현하였다. 최근 대형화 되고 있는 풍력 터빈의 추이를 고려하여 대형의 풍력 터빈에서 사용되는 개별 피치 제어 모델을 선형화 하여 구현하였다. 또한, 상태 변수가 많은 전기기기 모델들은 미리 컴파일 된 형태의 모델을 추가함으로써 빠른 속도로 시뮬레이션이 가능하다.
