Power system stabilizer act efficiently to damp the electromechanical oscillations in interconnected power systems. This paper presents an algorithm for the optimal parameter selection of a power system stabilizer in two-area power systems with a series HVDC link. This method is one of the classical techniques by allocating properly pole-zero positions to fit as closely as desired the ideal phase lead between the voltage reference and the generator electrical power and by changing the gain to produce a necessary damping torque over the matched frequency range. The small signal stability and transient stability studies using the PSS parameters obtained from this method show that a natural oscillation frequency of the study case system is adequately damped. The simulation used in the paper was performed by the Power System Toolbox software program based on MATLAB.

This is a study on application of a TVD-Mccormack scheme for the computation of one-dimensional dam-break flows. The TVD scheme not only has the ability to damp out oscillations, but also does not contain terms with adjustable parameters. Moreover, the TVD-McCormack scheme does not cause any additional difficulty when dealing with the source term of the equation and retains second-order accuracy in both space and time. In this study, by appropriately designing the limiter functions, the TVD property can be achieved, and numerical oscillations near a jump discontinuities can be eliminated or reduced. Also, this numerical scheme has less computational errors when the direction of the predictor-corrector step is in the same direction as the shock wane propagation.

Genus Alnus are deciduous board-leaved trees or shrubs found in the damp place and mountain and more than 17 species are growing in Korea. The bark of Alnus japonica has been used for the treatment of fever, hemorrhage and diarrehea in oriental traditional medicine. Quantitative analysis of diarylheptanoids which were characteristic components of Alnus species (A. japonica, A. hirsuta, and A. hirsuta var. sibirica), has been conducted by HPLC. The results showed that these plants were rich source of diarylheptanoids and the amount of oregonin and hirsutanonol which were major diarylheptanoids showed seasonal variation.

1. Objectives: The objectives of this paper are to report Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Constitution Theory and the present state of Chinese Health Administration Center. 2. Methods: We visited China for "China Technology Survey" in 2009. Our purposes were to research for the study of constitutional medicine in China and to search for the Development Plan of Constitutional Medicine Through the Research of Chinese Constitutional Medicine. This paper is the report of the "China Technology Survey". 3. Results & Conclusions: In China, the concept and diagnosis of TCM constitutions is nine(Balanced Constitution, Qi-deficient Constitution, Yang-deficient Constitution, Yin-deficient Constitution, Phlegm-dampness Constitution, Damp-heat Constitution, Stagnant blood Constitution, Stagnant qi Constitution, Inherited specific Constitution). And Chinese government established the Classification and Diagnosis Standards for the Constitutions of TCM in 2009. TCM Constitution Theory is being widely applied at Health Administration Center that treats 'predisease' patients. Theses Chinese clinical implications of constitutional medicine are a good example for "Sasang Constituional Medicine" Care Service.

Objective : Skin scale(皮膚甲錯) refers to an excessive dryness of skin which can be found under such conditions as blood deficiency(血虛), blood heat(血熱), damp heat(濕熱), the weakness of stomach(脾胃虛) and blood stasis(瘀血). Method : A sensitive and nervous patient showed symptoms of insomnia and chest discomfort as well as skin scale. He had great anxiety over his illness. He, therefore, was diagnosed as blood stasis caused by outburst of emotions and was prescribed Hyulbuchukeotang(血府逐瘀湯) to remove blood stasis in chest. Result and Conclusion : After taking Hyulbuchukeotang, insomnia, chest discomfort and skin scale eased off. Since not only blood stasis but also other factors may cause skin scale, more research on such cases must be done to determine the efficacy of Hyulbuchukeotang for skin scale.

Objectives : Geopungjeseub-tang(Gufengchushi-tang) has been used in oriental medicine for many centuries as a therapeutic agent for hemiplegia caused by deficiency of qi(氣虛) and damp phlegm(濕痰). This study was performed to evaluate effects of Geopungjeseub-tang extract(GJT) on hemodynamics[regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF), pial arterial diameter(PAD), mean arterial blood pressure(MABP), heart rate(HR)] in normal rats and in rats with cerebral ischemia by middle cerebral artery(MCA) occlusion. Also, effects of adrenergic ${\beta}-receptor$, cyclooxygenase on response to GJT were evaluated. Methods : Laser-doppler flowmetry(LDF) measured changes of rCBF, MABP and HR. Video microscope and width analyzer measured changes in PAD. Results : rCBF and PAD increased after treatment with GJT(10mg/kg, i.v.) during the period of cerebral reperfusion, and pretreatment with indomethacin raised rCBF and PAD increased after treatment with GJT during the same period as above. Pretreatment with propranolol decreased rCBF, but increased after GJT treatment, but raised PAD increased after GJT treatment during this period of reperfusion. Conclusion : CR caused diverse responses were observed in rCBF and PAD after treatment with GJT. ACF action is mediated by adrenergic ${\beta}-receptor$ and cyclooxygenase. Result suggest that GJT has an anti-ischemic effect through the improvement of cerebral hemodynamics and has theraputic potential for cerebral apoplexy.

Power system stabilizer act efficiently to damp the electromechanical oscillations in interconnected power systems. This paper presents an algorithm for the optimal parameter selection of a power system stabilizer in two-area power systems with a series HVDC link. This method is one of the classical techniques by allocating properly pole-zero positions to fit as closely as desired the ideal phase lead between the voltage reference and the generator electrical power and by changing the gain to produce a necessary damping torque over the matched frequency range. Control of HVDC converter and inverter are used a constant current loop. Proper parameters of PI controllers are obtain based on the Root-locus technique in other to have sufficient speed and stability margin to cope with charging reference values and disturbance. The small signal stability arid transient stability studies using the PSS parameters obtained from this method show that a natural oscillation frequency of the studycase system is adequately damped. Also the simulation results using the HVDC converter and inverter parameters obtained from this proposed method show proper current control characteristics. The simulation used in the paper was performed by the Power System Toolbox software program based on MATLAB.
