A recently constructed commercial ship is a complexive integrated system like a small city in which has a generator, power distributing facilities, various radio equipments and high power circuit breakers are installed. Therfore it could make a malfunction of the microprocessor in the various control units which are so important during the ocean voyage of larger ship. This paper has studied whether is properly required or not on the view of the actual electro magnetic compatibility status on the electromagnetic interference and suceptibility test requirments listed on the IACS (International Association of the Classification Society). Through these results, we are looking forward to the new suggestions of the Electro Magnetic Compatibility test in order to reduce the malfunction in the ship regarding test item, test level, and test condition.

There are many cases that interrupt the production process because of malfunctions caused by electronic circuit boards which control equipment, but it is difficult to distinctly identify the causes in many cases. Especially, CMOS devices with the control logic circuit return automatically to normal state after their own faults. Therefore it is not easy to analyze the problems with electronic circuit boards. Recently, nuclear power plant experienced a failure due to the malfunction of electronic circuit boards and it was identified that the reason of the malfunction was because of latch-up phenomenon caused by external surge in electronic devices. This paper presents the causes and the phenomenon of latch-up by experiment and also a way using counter EMF diodes, noise filters and surge protective devices to prevent latch-up phenomenon from electronic circuit boards, finally confirms the effectiveness of the result by experiment.

The tuned mass damper (TMD) system was first proposed as an efficient vibration control method for high-rise buildings, and multiple TMD (MTMD) system was then proposed for the purpose of improving the robust performance. Thereafter, the active TMD (ATMD) is proposed to improve the vibration control performance over the TMD and MTMD systems. However, this system may experience an system-instability problem in case of the actuator malfunction. In order to overcome such limitations of actuator malfunction causing the instability of the structural system, in this study, we investigate the feasibility of the multiple ATMD (MATMD) system that facilitates both advantages of the MTMD and ATMD. Numerical example demonstrates that, when the proposed system is designed to have the same capacity as the ATMD, it shows a similar control performance to the ATMD, but also has very good adaptive control performance against the emergency situations such as actuator failures.

The design of a reliable and failsafe control system requires that sensor failures be detected and identified within acceptable time limit so that system malfunction can be prevented. This paper presents a model-based approach to sensor fault detection with applications to vehicle stability control systems. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated through test data-based evaluation. Vehicle test data-based evaluation results show that the proposed fault management scheme can be used for the design of a failsafe VSCs.

Since the release of safety standard IEC 61508 which defines functional safety of electronic safety-related systems, SIL(Safety Integrity Level) certification for railway systems has gained lots of attention lately. In this paper, we propose a new design technique of the computer board for train control systems with high reliability and safety. The board is designed with TMR(Triple Modular Redundancy) using a certified SIL3 Texas Instrument(TI)'s TMS570 MCU(Micro-Controller Unit) to guarantee safety and reliability. TMR for the control device is implemented on FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Array) which integrates a comparator, a CAN(Controller Area Network) communication module, built-in self-error checking, error discriminant function to improve the reliability of the board. Even if a malfunction of a processing module occurs, the safety control function based on the proposed technique lets the system operate properly by detecting and masking the malfunction. An RTOS (Real Time Operation System) called FreeRTOS is ported on the board so that reliable and stable operation and convenient software development can be provided.

Failure and malfunction of the unmanned surveillance facility cost can lead to delays occurring until the person in charge arrives at the unmanned surveillance facility, and theft, damage, and information leakage damage caused by intruders. In addition, due to equipment failure and malfunction, additional costs are incurred due to constant inspection by the manager. In this paper, in order to compensate for the malfunction of unmanned facility costs, we propose a system that diagnoses the monitoring facility in real time, displays the contents of the problem, automatically restores the facility power, and informs the person in charge of the situation by text message. The proposed system is a surveillance facility consisting of main facilities such as video equipment (CCTV), sound equipment, floodlights, etc. And SMS server that can send text messages in real time. Through experiments, the effectiveness of the proposed system was verified.

The identification of drilling joint dynamics which consists of drilling and structural dynamics and the on-line time series detection of malfunction process is substantial not only for the investigation of the static and dynamic characteristics but also for the analytic realization of diagnostic and control systems in drilling. Therefore, We have discussed on the comparative assessment of two recursive time series modeling algorithms that can represent the drilling operation and detect the abnormal geometric behaviors in precision roundshape machining such as turning, drilling and boring in precision diemaking. For this purpose, simulation and experimental work were performed to show the malfunctional behaviors for drilling operation. For this purpose, a new two recursive approach (Recursive Extended Instrument Variable Method : REIVM, Recursive Least Square Method : RLSM) may be adopted for the on-line system identification and monitoring of a malfunction behavior of drilling process, such as chipping, wear, chatter and hole lobe waviness.

Recently, the use of electric and electronic control systems is increasing in the automobile industry. This increase in the electric and electronic control system greatly increases the complexity of designing a vehicle, which leads to an increase in the malfunction of the system, and a safety problem due to the malfunction is becoming an issue. Based on IEC 61508 relating to the functional safety of electrical/electronic/programmable electronics, the ISO 26262 standard specific to the automotive sector was first established in 2011, and a revision was published in 2018. Malfunctions due to system failure are covered by ISO 26262, but ISO/PAS 21448 is proposed to deal with unintended malfunctions caused by changes in the surrounding environment. ISO 26262 sets out safety-related requirements for the entire life cycle. Functional safety analysis includes FTA (Fault Tree Analysis), FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis), and HAZOP (Hazard and Operability). These analysis have limitations in dealing with failures or errors caused by complex interrelationships because it is assumed that a failure or error affecting the risk occurs by a specific component. In order to overcome this limitation, it is necessary to apply the STPA (System Theoretic Process Analysis) technique.

Manufacturing process generally exhibits major or minor variations due to deviation of raw materials, equipment degradation, controller malfunction, and so on. Extensive research based on multivariate statistical process control has been done to monitor the unstable states and indicate a corrective action. A prototype of intelligent operation support system ("ISYS-MSPC") has been developed as a tool that supports the enhanced operation to guarantee the high productivity and a uniform high quality product. This system has been applied to the industrial batch and continuous processes and its performance has been validated .
