  • In order to facilitate the electricity market operation and trade in the restructured environment, ample transmission capability should be provided to satisfy the demand of increasing power transactions. The conflict of this requirement and the restrictions on the transmission expansion in the restructured electricity market has motivated the development of methodologies to enhance the available transfer capability (ATC) of existing transmission grids. The insertion of flexible AC transmission System (FACTS) devices in electrical systems seems to be a promising strategy to enhance single area ATC and multi-area ATC. In this paper, the viability and technical merits of boosting single area ATC and multi-area ATC using Thyristor controlled series compensator (TCSC), static VAR compensator (SVC) and unified power flow controller (UPFC) in single device and multi-type three similar and different device combinations are analyzed. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is employed to obtain the optimal settings of FACTS devices. The installation cost is also calculated. The study has been carried out on IEEE 30 bus and IEEE 118 bus systems for the selected bilateral, multilateral and area wise transactions.

  • In recent years, customers and power supplies are interested in power quality. Demands of customers are change from standard quality of distribution power system to various high quality of distribution power system. so, it is necessary to apply power quality compensator, in our project, we develop the power quality compensator of 150kVA which compensates power factor and voltage sag, interruption. it is very frequently occurred power qualify problems[1,2]. As a series and shunt compensator, power quality compensator consists of two inverters with common do link capacitor bank. It compensates the current quality in the shunt part and the voltage qualify in the series part. In this paper we present the design and control algorithm of power quality compensator. As a control algorithm is implemented by digital controller, we consider sample-and-hold of signals. In this simulation, we use EMTDC/PSCAD V3.0 software which can simulate instantaneous voltage and current.

  • 한국전력계통은 전체 계통부하의 약 40%가 수도권에 집중되어 있다. 반면 발전설비의 경우 설비용량의 약 20%가 수도권에 위치하고 있다. 그러나 이 설비용량의 대부분은 복합 발전소로 구성되어 있다. 향후 동해안 지역의 경우 신한울 원자력 발전소 등 대규모 기저발 전원이 투입될 계획이다. 발전설비의 증가에 따라 전력을 수도권으로 수송하기 위한 송전설비계획도 수립되어 있는 상황으로 위와 같은 계통의 특성이 더욱 심화된다. 2018년의 경우 신한울 원전이 동해안 지역에 신규 투입될 예정이다. 그러나 송전설비계획에 따른 신규 송전선은 이보다 다소 늦은 시기에 투입될 예정이다. 이에 따라 동해안으로부터 수도권으로 전력을 송전하는 765kV 송전선 고장의 파급효과가 매우 심각할 것으로 예상된다. 특히 수도권의 복합이 대부분 정지한 off-peak 부하 상태에서 상정고장이 발생할 경우, 수도권 지역의 전압불안정 문제가 발생할 가능성이 있다. 이 논문에서는 2018년도 계통상황을 기반으로 동해안 765kV 상정고장 상황을 고려하여 수도권 전압안정도를 확보하기 위한 병렬 FACTS설비 투입 개소를 선정하는 방안을 제시한다. 또한 위 방안을 적용한 선정 결과를 제시한다.

  • Contrasted with the standard linear ARMA models, financial time series exhibits non-standard features such as fat-tails, non-normality, volatility clustering and asymmetries which are usually referred to as "stylized facts" in financial time series context (Terasvirta, 2009). We are accordingly led to ad hoc models (apart from ARMA) to accommodate stylized facts (Andersen et al., 2009). The paper aims to give a contemporary overview on financial and special time series models based on the recent literature and on the author's publications. Various models are illustrated including asymmetric models, integer valued models, multivariate models and high frequency models. Selected statistical issues on the models are discussed, bringing some perspectives to the future works in this area.

  • In this Paper, Ⅰ illustrate the continuity and severance of Korean railroad. The Korean railroad has been running for 105 years now since it started operation in 1899. Between 1905 and 1945, Japan's imperial government ruled Korea including operations of the railroad. After Korea restored its sovereignty, Korean nationals managed the Korean railroad with our own ability and strategies. At present, we can examine the effect of railroad in perspective of continuity and severance respectively. For one thing, the concept of continuity is described as influence or railroad still remains. For another, the severance shows facts and phenomena that are broken off. I have come up with some facts that are involved with continuity. For example, infrastructure and the formation of cities and land spaces are connected with the sequence. Futhermore, the railroad has made a huge dent in modernization and expedition of movement. In the course of tracing down the facts, I classified the concept of severance : the separation of South and North Korea, drastic changes in transport policy, operations and characteristics. Finally technology has brought about a major breakthrough with the development of Koran high speed rail.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the multiplication units in the elementary school mathematics. In the 2015 revised curriculum, students learn multiplication in $2^{nd}$ grade. The multiplication units is divided into two: multiplication and multiplication facts. In these two units, we mainly analyze situations involving multiplication, models for teaching multiplication, and multiplication strategies for teaching multiplication facts in relation to Subject Matter Knowledge. We called these contents Multiplication Matter Knowledge. We examined the precedent study with regard to multiplication at the elementary mathematics. As results, we prepared an analysis framework for this study. This study was conducted according to qualitative research methods, expecially 'qualitative contents analysis'. The contents here refer to Multiplication Matter Knowledge that can be found in the elementary mathematics textbooks and working books etc. As results of analysis, We can confirm that various multiplication situations and multiplication models are presented in the textbooks. And it has been examined that various multiplication properties are presented in the textbook according to the multiplication strategy levels. We insist elementary school teachers should be aware of these Multiplication Matter Knowledge. This study aims to provide elementary school teachers with basic data in these contexts.
