Electric Motorcycle is one of the most promising candidates for future transportation because of its outstanding fuel economy and environmental pollution. Before prototyping a realistic electric motorcycle, a reliable simulation program is required to test the capacities of the power sources and optimize the parameters of an electric motorcycle. This process can reduce the expenses during the designing of an electric motorcycle system. In this paper, we present an electric motorcycle system simulation program implemented on Matlab, which can model drivetrain and powertrain systems in an easy, natural way within Simulink and PSAT. And the analysis of design parameters such as max power, capacity, state of charge, slope angle is carried out by the simulation and experimental method. The predicted results by the development model were a good agreement with experimentally obtained results.

본 연구에서는 실제 가압장 및 가압장후단부의 상수도관망에 발생가능한 수충격해석을 수행하고 신뢰성해석을 수행하여 파괴확률을 정량적으로 산정하였다. 이를 위해 가압장의 펌프운영조건을 다르게 적용하였고 관말단부의 압력센서를 이용하여 토출압을 선택적으로 운영하면 수충격의 규모도 작아지고 파괴확률도 대폭 줄어드는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 가압장의 토출압을 선택적으로 운영하기 위해서는 관말단부에 필수적으로 충분한 수압이 존재해야하며 이를 위해서 실시간 모니터링이 가능한 압력계를 설치하게 된다. 이 압력계로부터 수신되는 데이터를 통하여 펌프의 운영이 이루어지고 최소한의 에너지 사용을 통해 효율을 증대하고 피해율도 저감하게 된다. 본 연구에서 개발된 센서기반 펌프운영시스템이 적용된 실제 상수도관망은 현재 가압장의 운영조건으로 24시간 75m의 펌프 토출압을 유지하고 있으며 관말단부의 수용가에 충분한 수압이 전달되고 있다. 가압장의 고압유지는 관말단부에 충분한 수압을 전달하기 위한 것이지만 상수도관망에서 누수와 시설물에 대한 많은 피해를 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 가압장의 펌프토출압을 75m와 60m로 선택적 운영을 할 수 있도록 프로그램을 개발하였다. 기존 가압장의 운영조건과 선택적 운영조건을 사용하여 수충격해석을 수행하였고 신뢰성해석모형을 사용하여 파괴확률을 정량적으로 산정할 수 있었다. 가압장의 운영조건을 최적화하여 효율은 증대하고 피해율을 저감할 수 있는 방법을 찾을 수 있었다. 이를 위해서 가압장의 인버터 설치는 물론이고 펌프의 최적운영을 위해 개발된 펌프운영 프로그램을 가압장 배전반에 장착하여 경제적인 운영이 될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 실제 상수관망에서 과도한 수압으로 인해 발생할 수 있는 여러 가지 피해를 최소화할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 기존의 펌프장 토출압으로 운영되었을 때와 비교하여 에너지 절감율을 정량적으로 산정하여 비교분석하였다. 가압장 후단의 작은 마을을 대상으로 하여 절감된 전기요금은 적은 양이라 할 수 있겠으나 개발된 시스템을 전국에 적용한다면 에너지 절감으로 인한 경제적 파급효과는 크다고 할 수 있다.

In order to investigate the operation performance behaviors of the UAV's propulsion system to be operated long time in high altitude, the engine performance tests, which are simulated in the altitude engine test facility should be needed. If the test is performed in a existing altitude engine test facility, additional test apparatuses are required. Among them a proper design of the inlet and exhaust ducts that may directly affect the engine performance is very important. If the design is not adequate, the engine performance loss due to the flow behavior change and the pressure loss may be not similar to the real engine performance. In this work, firstly the engine inlet and exhaust ducts to be mounted to the existing altitude facility are modelled in 3D and its flow behaviors and pressure losses are analyzed using a commercial CFD tool, ANSYS's CFX, and the engine performance with the duct losses is calculated using the performance analysis program developed by C. Kong et al. Finally, the optimized inlet and exhaust ducts' configurations are proposed through the repeated analyses of various duct configurations.

The objective of this study is to develop a model which can design an optimal pipe network system of least cost while satisfying all the design constraints including hydraulic constraints using a genetic algorithm technique. Hydraulic constraints interfaced with the simulation program(KYPIPE) checked feasible solution region. Genetic algorithm(GA) technique is a relatively new optimization technique. The GA is known as a very powerful search and optimization technique especially when solving nonlinear programming problems. The model developed in this study selects optimal pipe diameters in the form of commercial discrete sizes using the pipe diameters and the pumping powers as decision variables. The model not only determines the optimal diameters and pumping powers of pipe network system but also satisfies the discharge and pressure requirements at demanding nodes. The model has been applied to an imaginary and an existing pipe network systems. One system is adopted from journal papers which has been used as an example network by many other researchers. Comparison of the results shows compatibility of the model developed in this study. The model is also applied to a system in Goyang city in order to check the model applicability to finding of optimal pumping powers. It has been found that the developed model can be successfully applied to optimal design of pipe network systems in a relatively simple manner.

The study applies a hydrologic simulation model, HEC-1 developed by Hydrologic Engineering Center to Daecheong dam watershed for modeling hourly inflows of Daecheong dam. Although the HEC-1 model provides an automatic optimization technique for some of the parameters, the built-in optimization model is not sufficient in estimating reliable parameters. In particular, the optimization model often fails to estimate the parameters when a large number of parameters exist. In this regard, a main objective of this study is to develop Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation based HEC-1 model (BHEC-1). The Clark IUH method for transformation of precipitation excess to runoff and the soil conservation service runoff curve method for abstractions were used in Bayesian Monte Carlo simulation. Simulations of runoff at the Daecheong station in the HEC-1 model under Bayesian optimization scheme allow the posterior probability distributions of the hydrograph thus providing uncertainties in rainfall-runoff process. The proposed model showed a powerful performance in terms of estimating model parameters and deriving full uncertainties so that the model can be applied to various hydrologic problems such as frequency curve derivation, dam risk analysis and climate change study.

The use of high dose rate remote afterloading system for the treatment of intraluminal lesions necessitates the need for a more accurate of dose distributions around the high intensity brachytherapy sources, doses are often prescribed to a distance of few centimeters from the linear source, and in this range the dose distribution is very difficult to assess. Accurated and optimized dose calculation with stable numerical algorithms by PC level computer was required to treatment intraluminal lesions by high dose rate brachytherapy system. The exposure rate from sources was calculated with Sievert integral and dose rate in tissue was calculated with Meisberger equation, An algorithm for generating a treatment plan with optimized dose distribution was developed for high dose rate intraluminal radiotherapy. The treatment volume becomes the locus of the constrained target surface points that is the specified radial distance from the source dwelling positions. The treatment target volume may be alternately outlined on an x-ray film of the implant dummy sources. The routine used a linear programming formulism to compute which dwell time at each position to irradiate the constrained dose rate at the target surface points while minimizing the total volume integrated dose to the patient. The exposure rate and the dose distribution to be confirmed the result of calculation with algorithm were measured with film dosimetry, TLD and small size ion chambers.

A FORTRAN program was developed to determine the optimal locations of multiple recharge wells in an aquifer with different arrangements of pumping wells. The simulated annealing algorithm was used to find optimal locations of two recharge wells which satisfied three objective functions. The model results show that locating two injection wells inside the cluster of pumping wells is efficient if the recovery rate only was taken into account. In contrast, placing injection wells to the side of the cluster is desirable if the simulation considers aggregate objective function. Therefore, installing an injection well on each side of the cluster seems to yield the maximum recovery rates for the existing pumping wells, and it yields similar increases in pumping rate for all wells in the cluster. The locations of recharge wells can be arranged in numerous configurations, because there are multiple near-optimal local minima or maxima. These results indicate that the simulated annealing can yield effective evaluations of the optimal locations of multiple recharge wells. In addition, the suggested aggregate objective function can be utilized as an appropriate multi-objective optimization.

In current, there has not been the evaluation model for the optimum design of the multi-utility tunnel by considering urban type and size, the function of surrounding road and feasibility analyses with respect to construction method, and arrangement of accommodation facilities inside multi-utility tunnel. Thus, in this study, we developed the evaluation model for the optimum design of the multi-utility tunnel before and after the decision of the multi-utility tunnel installation. In this paper, we have selected the Deming cycle which is used in various fields among several decision methods for optimizing the design. For the purpose of reflecting the various factors in the design of the multi-utility tunnel, 11 higher indicators were set up to lead to more detailed approaches. In addition, based on the "Plan-Do-Check-Action (PDCA)" circulation method, we can realize the installation of the multi-utility tunnel and design more efficiently through the first phase for conception and the second phase for optimization, and develop the program for the evaluation model accordingly.

CGI is a standard interface rule between web server and gateway devised for the gateway's standard output to replace a static web document in UNIX environment. So, it is common to use standard I/O statements provided by the programming language for the CGI gateway. But the standard I/O mechanism is one of buffer strategies that are designed transparently to operating system and optimized for generic cases. This means that it nay be useful to apply another optimization to the standard I/O environment in CGI gateway. In this paper, we introduced standard output method and file output method as the two output optimization areas for CGI gateways written in C language in the UNIX/LINUX systems, and applied the proposed methods of each area to Debian LINUX, IBM AIX, SUN Solaris, Digital UNIX respectively. Then we analyzed the effect of them focused on execution time. The results were different from operating system to operating system. Compared to normal situation, the best case of standard output area showed about $10{\%}$ improvement and the worst case showed $60{\%}$ degradation in file output area where some performance improvements were expected.
