This paper presents a method for optima] placement of series capacitors in order to improve the power system transient stability, using genetic algorithms. For the formulation, this paper considers the objective function which is the energy margin as the difference between transient energy and critical energy. The most important factor in determining an accurate critical energy is the controlling unstable equilibrium point (UEP). This paper proposes the controlling UEP methods, concurrently with the DFP(Davidon-Fletcher-Powell) method, which enables the enhancement of multi-machine analysis. The proposed method is applied to 6-bus, 7-line, 4-machine model system to show its effectiveness in determining the locations to install series capacitors and the it's size to be installed in system, simultaneously.

This research conducts CAE analysis of fire damper and design of damper controlling system. The prediction of the design heat transfer was done the answer of fire damper could be obtained by using continuity equation of damper controlling and orthogonal array. Through the design analysis of optimal offshore construction, new fire damper of H-120 class was designed. Accordingly, this equipment will be tested in actual offshore construction. Finally, we could obtain fire damper of optimal design with orthogonal array. With the CAE results of this research, The offshore plant will obtain eco-friendly fire damper with a method to select optimal condition of fire damper with orthogonal array.

As a new technical approach, an attempt was made to realize a photovoltaic system for an eco-environmental leisure ship by simultaneously actuating nine photovoltaic solar panels in association with the application of a sail-controlling system using wind energy. In this approach, the photovoltaic system consisted of a solar module, an inverter, a battery, and the relevant components, while the sail-controlling device was equipped with sail up/down and mast turning systems. The previously mentioned eco-environmental leisure ship utilizes a photovoltaic hybrid system that uses solar and wind energy as renewable energy sources. Furthermore, this research included a performance evaluation of the manufactured prototype, the acquisition of the purposed quantity values, and development of the purposed items. The significant items, including the sail up/down speed (seconds) and mast turning angle (degrees) were evaluated for a performance test. A wind direction sensitivity of 90% and maximum instant charging power of 900 W were also obtained in the process of the performance evaluation. In addition, the maximum sail time was also evaluated in order to acquire the optimum value. The performance evaluation showed that the prototype with a photovoltaic hybrid system was suitable for sailing an eco-environmental leisure ship using solar and wind energy.

The AC-to-DC single-phase PWM rectifier for traction applications using high power semiconductor, IGCT is made and tested. Parallel operation of two PWM converter is adopted for increasing capacity of converters. For reducing harmonics, the harmonic content is eliminated by the phase shift between two converters switching phase. The output voltage control is achieved by interns calculation without detecting the input current. The part of PLL used for controlling power factor is simply implemented by software.

This paper describes a low-power design of decimation filter. To reduce power consumption, an approximate processing method which controls the error in canonic signed digit(CSD) coefficients is proposed. The CSD representation reduces the number of operations by representing multiplications with add and shift operations. The proposed method further reduces the number of operations by controlling the error of CSD coefficient. Processor type architecture is used to implement the proposed method. Simulation result shows that the number of operations is reduced to 56%, 35% and 10% at each approximated filter level.

In this paper, a single Phase voltage source voltage-controlled active power filter(APF) for power quality improvement was proposed. The proposed APF has the performance of harmonic suppression and unity power factor correction. The performance of harmonic suppression can be obtained by controlling the waveshape of the APF output voltage to be sine wave. And, unity power factor is controlled by the reactive power control loop of the APF output. Simulation and experimental results using diode rectifier showed that the voltage-controlled APF, unlike the current-controlled APF, can reduce the voltage harmonics as well as current harmonics. Also the results showed that the input dover factor and power quality were greatly improved.

In this paper, a current hysteresis control with good decoupling properties for doubly-fed brushless induction machines (BDFIMs) has been proposed based on a generalized vector model. The independent control of the reactive power and speed for BDFIMs has been achieved by controlling the d-axis and the q-axis current of the control windings (CW). The proposed vector control method has been developed for the power winding (PW) flux frame. Experimental verification of a type Y180M-4 BDFIM prototype with 1/4 pole-pairs has been presented. Evidence of its good performance has been shown through experimental results.

Marionette controlling robot has a problem that generates interference in rotation and intersection, therefore, the research on the independent shifter to move freely on the stage is required. Connecting omni-directional mobile robot with marionette controlling robot can solve this problem. Omni-directional mobile robot makes itself rotate and translate in 2D plane freely. Magnetic device is used to connect the moving part with the control part of the robot to minimize the intereference generated by the movement of robot. When robot moves, it can move to all directions with the suitalbe setting of banlance power. The moment of inertia is minimized by dividing the robot to the upper and lower parts in the marionette performance stage. Rotation and interference problem of independent omni-wheel Robot can be solved by using the permanent magnet. The efficiency and safety of the marionette controlling robot is proved by the experiment.
