  • This paper present the design of a novel neural-network (NN) based pulse-width modulation (PWM) techniques for a three-level power converter of electric trains along with nonlinear mapping of essential switching patterns and fault tolerance, which are inherent characteristics of NNs. Considering the importance of safety, power factor and harmonics of electric train power converters, two-level type and three-level type of power converters using NNs are precisely investigated and compared in computer simulation. A computer simulation shows that a new current control scheme provides an improved performance over a fixed-band hysteresis current control in many aspects.

  • Generally, grounding systems are responsible for the safe operation of a power system. Their performance guarantees equipment protection and personnel safety under condition of the limited ground potential rise and touch voltages as well as step voltages under ground fault conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to measure the ground resistance frequently for checking the performance of grounding system, In this paper the ground resistance measuring system using digital signal processor and high-performance L-C resonant band pass filter is presented. The signal current magnitude for measuring ground resistance in this system is $10^{-1}[A]\;to\;5\times10^{-2}[A]$ and the current frequency is 30[Hz].

  • 테스팅은 테스트 요구사항을 기반으로 수행하기 때문에 테스트 요구사항의 품질은 테스팅 전체 과정의 품질과 직결된다고 할 수 있다. 그러나 테스트 요구사항에서 고려해야 할 점들은 시스템의 도메인과 목적에 따라 다르기 때문에 양질의 테스트 요구사항이라고 판별할 수 있는 기준을 정하는 것은 어려운 일이다. 본 연구에서는 테스트 케이스와 고장 수목의 최소 절단집합을 각각 정형모델로 변환하여 모델체킹을 함으로써, 테스트 요구사항의 안전성을 측정하는 방법을 제시한다. 테스트 요구사항이 반영된 테스트 케이스는 모델체킹의 대상이 되는 정형모델로 변환하였으며, 고장수목의 최소 절단집합은 CTL 검증 속성으로 변환하여 테스트 케이스에서 생성된 정형모델이 안전성을 만족하는지 만족하는지 모델체킹을 적용하여 확인하였다.

  • False-tripping of MCCB(Molded Case Circuit Breaker) and ELB(Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker), using to protect overload and ground-fault accidents in power system raise direct and indirect losses like as information loss, facilities damage, slipup of goods production in industry place. Cause of false-tipping of MCCB and ELB is various and cause analysis of false-tripping is mostly made up by inference because trip is not reappeared. This paper investigated and analyzed causes and influences of false-tripping of MCCB and ELB by making up a question to safety managers of two hundred and eighteen electrical facilities for private use. Also, the necessity of experimental study on the effect of harmonics on false-tipping of MCCB and ELB was presented.

  • Because of the continuous increasing of energy consumption, metallic pipelines are widely used to supply services to customers such as gas, oil, water, etc. Most common metallic pipelines are underground and are now frequently being installed in nearby electric power lines. In recent years, buried gas pipeline close to power lines can be subjected to hazardous induction effects, especially during single line to ground faults. because it can cause corrosion and it poses a threat to the safety of workers responsible for maintenance. Accordingly, it is necessary to take into consideration for analysis of induced voltage on gas pipelines in transmission lines. This paper analyzed the induced voltage on the gas pipelines due to the 154kV transmission lines in normal case and in different faulty case conditions using EMTP (Electro-Magnetic Transients Program).

  • The aircraft maintenance demands a lot of aviation mechanics in urgent according to the high season and low season in seasonal demand adjusted, unplanned maintenance work such as AD (airworthiness directives) and troubleshooting of aircraft system fault. The advent of Super-Large Aircraft such as A380 with aircraft materials, power plant and avionics systems which were not in previous models must be expected to increase the complexity of the aircraft maintenance system. This study is intended to propose the development plan for formation of positive flexibility culture in aircraft maintenance organization through the review of previous research on flexibility culture of organization and through empirical research for bureaucratic and poor factors by the evaluation of flexibility culture level of domestic aircraft maintenance organization.

  • The faults of the squirrel cage induction motor is grew increasingly complex as the faults resulting in the shorting of a stator winding and the broken rotor bar or cracked rotor end ring, bearing faults, and so on. The users of electrical machines initially relied on simple protections such as over-current, over-voltage, earth-fault, etc. to ensure safe and reliable operation. but this method cause heavy financial losses and the threat of safety therefore it has now become very important to diagnose faults at there very inception. in this paper, we are going to discuss the detection method of broken rotor bar of squirrel cage induction motor by the motor current signal analysis(MCSA) and the opening terminal voltage signal analysis.

  • 제어 컴퓨터의 고장으로 인해 인명이나 재산에 치명적 영향을 미치는 safety-critical 실시간 시스템을 제어하고 모니터링하기 위해 디지털 컴퓨터의 사용은 점점 일반화되고 있다. 특히, VLSI 기술의 급격한 발달로 인해 하드웨어가 초소형화 되고 대량생산이 가능해진 현실에서 이러한 제어 컴퓨터의 극대화된 신뢰도 요구를 만족시키기 위해 막중한 하드웨어 여분(hardware redundancy)이 널리 사용되고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 N개의 다중 모듈(multi-module)로 이루어진 하드웨어 여분의 운영 모드를 분석하고 각 운영 모드에서 고장이 발생할 경우 모드의 전환과 그로 인한 신뢰도의 변화를 계산할 것이다. 그리고 간단한 시뮬레이션을 통해 전환된 여러 모드 중 가장 우수한 신뢰도를 갖는 모드를 평가하게 된다.

  • The event tree/fault tree techniques used in the current probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) of nuclear power plants are based on the binary and static description of the components and the system. While these techniques Bay be adequate in most of the safety studies, more advanced techniques, e.g., the Markov reliability analysis, are required to accurately study such problems as the plant availability assessments and technical specifications evaluations that are becoming increasingly important. This paper describes a Markov model for the Reactor Protection System of a pressurized water reactor and presents results of model evaluations for two testing policies in technical specifications.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence that shape of tie has on the ductility of reinforce concrete rectangular column with experiment. There is the standard of the shape and arrengement of tie bar for RC column, but nevertheless currently a tie used in some fields under construction has been constructed in different way from the design for the convenience of construction. A research was required to analyze the problem on the behavior of RC column caused from a shoddy and fault construction of tie, and then evaluate the safety.
