In this paper, it was proposed that hazard analysis and risk assessment about railway signal systems using FTA(Fault Tree Analysis) and ETA(Event Tree Analysis) one of the reliability analysis methods executed and output value based on the hazard baseline of CENELEC and EC 61508 producted, and also the SIL(Safety Integrity Level)/THR(Tolerable Hazard Rate) about the system set. On the basis of this principle, more systematic standardizations are required to operate railway system and in the future, we hope that safety and reliability of signal equipment will be better improved.

This paper describes a percentage current differential relaying algorithm for bus protection blocked by a CT saturation detection algorithm. The detection algorithm blocks the output of a current differential relay only if a differential current is caused by CT saturation in the case of an external fault. Moreover, if a current differential relay operates faster than the detection algorithm, the blocking signal is not ignited. On the other hand. if the detection algorithm operates faster than a current differential relay, the output of the relay is blocked. The results of the simulation show that the proposed algorithm can discriminate internal faults from external faults ever when a CT is saturated in both cases. This paper concludes by implementing the algorithm into the TMS320C6701 digital signal processor. The results of hardware implementation are also satisfactory The algorithm can not only increase the sensitivity of the current differential relay but Improve the stability of the relay for an external faults.

Byteflight is developed based on RS-485 communication (an international standard), and it can be used as a data bus during the operation of an integrated avionics system in the latest aircraft. Therefore, the integrated avionics system can perform an effective and safe flight mission only when the accurate and seamless display of flight information, communication, and accurate functions of navigation are implemented. In this study, cause analysis and failure investigation were performed on screen abnormalities and communication interruptions due to signal interference in the Byteflight data bus of the integrated avionics system during aircraft operation. To improve signal interference between avionics units, the branch point and wiring path of the Byteflight data bus were changed, and the verification result of the improved method was also described.

As demand for paper cups markedly increases, this has brought about a requirement to develop fast paper cup forming machines. However, the fast manufacturing speed of these machines causes faults to occur more frequently in the final product. To reduce the possibility of producing faulty products, it is necessary to develop technologies to monitor the manufacturing process and diagnose the machine status. In this research, we selected the main driving axis of the forming machine for fault diagnosis. We searched the states of rotational elements related to the driving axis and suggested a fault diagnostic system based on spectrum analysis consisting of a real-time data acquisition device, accelerometers, and a diagnosis algorithm. To evaluate the developed fault diagnostic system, we performed experiments using a test station which resembles the actual paper cup forming machine. As a result, we were able to confirm that the proposed system was sufficiently feasible to diagnose any abnormalities in the operation of the paper cup forming machine.

The optical submarine cable has a long distance cable and the repeater for optical amplification compared to territorial optical cable so conventional OTDR utilization for the optical submarine cable is limited. in case the optical core in the optical submarine cable system cut, by using Coherent OTDR that utilize OTDR path in repeater the cable fault point can be detected and in case the faulty of the copper tube in the cable that provide power for the repeater to amplify optical signal, the ways using the current/voltage characteristic, the capacitance per Km and so on is required. this report suggest efficient fault location detecting mechanism by categorized cable fault type.

Recently, a rapid growth of wind power system as a leading renewable energy source has compelled a number of companies to develop intelligent monitoring and diagnostic system. Such systems can detect early mechanical faults, which prevents from costly repairs. Generally, fault diagnostic system for wind turbines is based on vibration and process signal analysis. In this work, different type of mechanical faults such as mass unbalance and shaft misalignment which can always happen in wind turbine system is considered. The proposed intelligent fault diagnostic algorithm utilizes artificial neural network and Wavelet transform. In order to verify the feasibility of the proposed algorithm, mechanical fault generation experimental system manufactured by Gaon corporation is utilized.

A new approach for prediction of a fault zone ahead of tunnel face by using statistical control charts is suggested and applied to the construction site. $x-R_s$ control charts of RMR parameters were investigated as approaching and passing through fault zone. The abnormal signal from the control charts was observed and analyzed based on statistical criteria. Fault zones in the application area were predicted in advance using this method and it was verified by comparing with observation data like horizontal boring and face mapping.

Fourier transform has been one of the most commonly used tools in study of frequency characteristics of signal. However, based on the Fourier transform. it is hard to tell whether a signal's frequency contents evolve in time or not. Recently, to overcome Fourier transform fault. not to represent non-stationary signal, time-frequency analysis methods are developed and those can represent informations of signal's time and frequency at the same time. In this study we analysed ultrasonic signal for degraded SUS 316 with time-frequency analysis method. In particular the methods such as short time Fourier(STFT) and Wigner-Ville distribution(WVD) were used to extract frequency contents and characteristics from ultrasonic signals.

The New efficient Mux-based scan latch cell design and scan test of LOS/LOC modes are proposed for detection of delay faults in digital logic circuits. The proposed scan cell design can support LOS(Launch-off-Shift) and LOC(Launch-off-Capture) tests with high fault coverage and low scan power and it can alleviate the problem of the slow selector enable signal and hold signal by supporting the logic capable of switching at the operational clock speeds. Also, it efficiently controls the power dissipation of the scan cell design during scan testing. Functional operation and timing simulation waveform for proposed scan hold cell design shows improvement in at-speed test timing in both test modes.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the axial magnetic flux measurement could be used as a tool of the condition monitoring system for the induction motor and to develope the diagnostic algerian for the electric motors. The magnetic leakage flux signal is captured by the flux coil located at the end of motor without the disturbance of the operation. And the signal is analyzed both time and frequency bases to detect the failure of the motor. Specific signature can be described in time and frequency domain for each faults of the motor. The spectrum of the signal was found more useful for the monitoring purpose. The supply voltage imbalance and tin to turn failure of the stator winding could be detected by analysing the specific sidebands of the axial flux and sideband of the rotor bar pass frequency with the high resolution spectrum. The goal of this study verity that the axial flux measurement for the induction motor is a powerful tool for the diagnostic method and develope the algorithm to detect the fault.
