Batteries, which are being used as energy sources in various applications, tend to degrade, and their capacity declines with repeated charging and discharging cycles. A battery is considered to fail when it reaches 80% of its initial capacity. To predict this, prognosis techniques are attracting attention in recent years in the battery community. In this study, a method is proposed for estimating the battery health and predicting its remaining useful life (RUL) based on the slope of the charge voltage curve. During this process, a Bayesian framework is employed to manage various uncertainties, and a Particle Filter (PF) algorithm is applied to estimate the degradation of the model parameters and to predict the RUL in the form of a probability distribution. Two sets of test data-one from the NASA Ames Research Center and another from our own experiment-for an Li-ion battery are used for illustrating this technique. As a result of the study, it is concluded that the slope can be a good indicator of the battery health and PF is a useful tool for the reliable prediction of RUL.

This paper addresses the problem of moving object localization using Ultra-Wide-Band(UWB) range measurement and the method of location accuracy improvement of the indoor moving object. Unlike outdoor environment, it is difficult to track moving object position due to various noises in indoor. UWB is a radio technology that has attention for localization applications recently. UWB's ranging technique offer the cm accuracy. Its capabilities for data transmission, range accurate estimation and material penetration are suitable technology for indoor positioning application. This paper propose a positioning algorithm of an moving object using UWB ranging technique and particle filter. Existing positioning algorithms eliminate estimation errors and bias after location estimation of mobile object. But in this paper, the proposed algorithm is that eliminate predictable UWB range distance error first and then estimate the moving object's position. This paper shows that the proposed positioning algorithm is more accurate than existing location algorithms through experiments. In this study, the position of moving object is estimated after the triangulation and eliminating the bias and the ranging error from estimation range between three fixed known anchors and a mobile object using UWB. Finally, a particle filter is used to improve on accuracy of mobile object positioning. The results of experiment show that the proposed localization scheme is more precise under the indoor.

본 논문에서는 파티클 시스템(Particel System)을 이용한 실시간 기체 모델링 알고리즘을 제시한다. 일반적으로 그래픽스 분야에서, 주요한 자연현상의 하나인 기체의 운동은 수학적으로 복잡한 모델을 사용하여 그 모델링이 매우 복잡하였다. 따라서 빠른 구현시간을 얻기 위해서는 고성능의 컴퓨터가 요구되어왔다. 이 알고리즘에서는 물리학에서 수학적으로 정의된, 기체의 움직임에 적용되는 요소 각각을 추계 모델(Stochastic Model)로 다시 재 정의하여 기체 입자각각에 적용시켜 계산과정을 간단히 하였다. 따라서 일반적으로 사용되는 연구용 컴퓨터시스템에서도 실시간 애니메이션의 구현이 가능하다.

In this paper, the vibration & ultrasonic singals, \ulcorner 새 the collisions of particles in coaxial exectrodes are analyzed and discribed. These singals were detected and measured using ultrasonic and vibration sensors attached on the GIS enclosure. The relationship between the magnitude of the measured signal and the diameter and leght of the particle was analyzed.

Abstract - In this paper, the behaviour and effect of various particles made of conducting wires( Fe, Cu, Al ) in a SF6 insulated electrode system, are presented. It is shown that the ac breakdown voltage of compressed SF6 is influenced by different conducting particles. The breakdown voltage due to the particle is dependent of a class of particle. The breakdown voltage due to Cu particle was the highest and the breakdown voltage due to Al particle was the lowest.
