In this paper, we propose an approach to signal model-based fault detection and diagnosis system for induction motors. The current fault detection techniques used in the industry are limit checking techniques, which are simple but cannot predict the types of faults and the initiation of the faults. The system consists of two consecutive processes: fault detection process and fault diagnosis process. In the fault detection process, the system extracts the significant features from sound signals using combination of variance, cross-correlation and wavelet. Consequently, the pattern classification technique is applied to the fault diagnosis process to recognize the system faults based on faulty symptoms. The sounds generated from different kinds of typical motor's faults such as motor unbalance, bearing misalignment and bearing loose are examined. We propose two approaches for fault detection and diagnosis system that are waveletand-variance-based and wavelet-and-crosscorrelation-based approaches. The results of our experiment show more than 95 and 78 percent accuracy for fault classification, respectively.

Although the Korean peninsula has been considered as a largely aseismic region compared with the surrounding high seismic areas such as North China and Japan, there are more than thirty Quaternary faults reported so far, which are mostly centered in the southeastern peninsula. Structural studies of active faults exposed in Yangnam-myeon of Gyeongju, SE Korea are largely interpreted to post date the late Quaternary, suggesting that the NE-trending reverse faults may result from the active stress regime in the peninsula. The prevailing present-day E-W $S_{Hmax}$ orientations in the peninsula are consistent with the nature of plate forcing stemming from the convergence between the Indo-Australian and Eurasian plates. It is clear that the Quaternary faults have been reactivated, although resolving more elaborate time intervals responsible for a future rupture remains a significant challenge. This study contributes to better assess many of potential seismic hazards in the study area, in particular, in terms of seismic stability for foundation of nuclear power plant.

Induction motors are the most commonly used electrical drives because they are rugged, mechanically simple, adaptable to widely different operating conditions, and simple to control. The most common faults in squirrel-cage induction motors are bearing, stator and rotor faults. Surveys conducted by the IEEE and EPRI show that the most common fault in induction motor is bearing failure (${\sim}$40% of failure). Thence, this paper addresses experimental results for diagnosing faults with different rolling element bearing damage via motor current spectral analysis. Rolling element bearings generally consist of two rings, an inner and outer, between which a set of balls or rollers rotate in raceways. We set the experimental test bed to detect the rolling-element bearing misalignment of 3 type induction motors with normal condition bearing system, shaft deflection system by external force and a hole drilled through the outer race of the shaft end bearing of the four pole test motor. This paper takes the initial step of investigating the efficacy of current monitoring for bearing fault detection by incipient bearing failure. The failure modes are reviewed and the characteristics of bearing frequency associated with the physical construction of the bearings are defined. The effects on the stator current spectrum are described and related frequencies are also determined. This is an important result in the formulation of a fault detection scheme that monitors the stator currents. We utilized the FFT, Wavelet analysis and averaging signal pattern by inner product tool to analyze stator current components. The test results clearly illustrate that the stator signature can be used to identify the presence of a bearing fault.

This paper proposes a fault detection method utilizing converted images of acoustic emission signals and texture analysis for identifying bearing's multi-faults which frequently occur in an induction motor. The proposed method analyzes three texture features from the converted images of multi-faults: multi-faults image's entropy, homogeneity, and energy. These extracted features are then used as inputs of a fuzzy-ARTMAP to identify each multi-fault including outer-inner, inner-roller, and outer-roller. The experimental results using ten times trials indicate that the proposed method achieves 100% accuracy in the fault classification.

$2.5^{\circ}\;and\;5^{\circ}$ tilted (100) Si wafer were oxidized in dry oxygen, and the differences in thermal oxidation behavior and oxidation induced stacking faults (OSF) between specimens were investigated. Ellipsometer measurements of the oxide thickness produced by oxidation in dry oxygen from 900 to $1200^{\circ}C$ showed that the oxidation rates of the tilted (100) Si were more rapid than those of the (100) Si and the differences between them decreased as the oxidation temperature increased. The activation energies based on the parabolic rate constant, B for (100) Si, $2.5^{\circ}$ off (100) Si and $5^{\circ}$ off (100) Si were 27.3, 25.9, 27.6 kcal/mol and those on the linear rate constant, B/A were 58.6, 56.6, 57.6 kcal/mol, respectively. Also, considerable decrease in the density of oxidation induced stacking faults for the $5^{\circ}$ off (100) Si was observed through optical microscopy after preferentially etching off the oxide layer, and the angle of stacking faults were changed with tilted angles.

System level diagnosis algorithms use the properties of t-diagnosable system where the maximum number of the faults does not exceed 1. The existing diagnosis algorithms have limit when dealing with large fault sets in large multiprocessor systems. Somani and Peleg proposed t/k-diagnosable system to diagnose more faults than t by allowing upper bounded few number of units to be diagnosed incorrectly. In this paper, we propose adaptive hypercube diagnosis algorithm using t/k-diagnosable system. When the number of faults exceeds t, we allow k faults to be diagnosed incorrectly. Simulation shows that the performance of the proposed algorithm is better than Feng's HADA algorithm. We propose new algorithm to reduce test rounds by analyzing the syndrome of RGC-ring obtained in the first step of HADA/IHADA method. The proposed algorithm also gives similar performance compared to HYP-DIAG algorithm.

This paper proposes a self-repair system which is able to self-repair in cell unit by imitating the structure of living beings. Because the data of artificial cells move even diagonally, our system can self-repair faults not in column unit, but in cell unit. It leads to design an efficient self-repair system for multiple faults. Moreover, in artificial cell design, the usage of logic-based design method has smaller system size than that of the previous register-based design method. Our experimental result for 2-bit up/down counter shows 40.3% reduction in hardware overhead, compared to the previous method [6].

This paper proposes fault tolerant control laws using sliding mode control and adaptation laws for a satellite with reaction wheel faults. Considering system parameter errors and faults uncertainties in the dynamics of satellite, the control laws were designed. It was assumed that only reaction wheel failures occurred as faults. The reaction wheel faults were reflected in the multiply form. Because the proposed control laws satisfy the Lyapunov stability theorem, the stability is guaranteed. Through computer simulation, it was assured that the proposed adaptive sliding mode controller has a better performance than the existing sliding mode controller under unstable angular rates.

This paper is studied on a protective control system for electrical fire used electrical characteristics of SCR and multilayer-type PTC thermistor. The PTC thermistor has characteristic or positive resistivity temperature coefficient according to the temperature variation, which is construction of a regular square and cube demarcation with $BaTiO_{3_}$Ceramics of positive temperature coefficient. Also PTC shows the phenomenon which is rapidly increased in the resistivity if the temperature is increased over Curie temperature point. This paper is proposed on a protective control system used multilayer-type PTC which is protected from electrical fire due to electric short circuit faults or overload faults. Some experimental results of the proposed apparatus is confirmed to the validity of the analytical results.

High resolution transmission electron microscopic observations on quaternary $Zn_{1-x}Mg_{x}S_y$ $S_{1-y}$(x=0.13, y=0.16) on (001) GaAs substrate grown up to $1.2{\mu}m$ with 20nm ZnSe buffer layer at $300^{\circ}C$ by RIBER MBE system which has a single growth chamber were investigated by HRTEM working at 300kV with point resolution of 0.18nm. The ZnSe buffer layer maintains the coherency with the GaAs substrate. The stacking faults had begun at ZnSe buffer/$Zn_{1-x}Mg_{x}S_{y}S_{1-y}$ interface, whose length and spacing became larger than 60nm and wider than 40nm, respectively. The inverse triangular stacking fault was bounded by stacking faults which were formed on {111} planes with different variants. There exists rare stacking faults inside the triangular defect. The epilayer surrounded by the straight stacking faults, which had formed in the same direction, became the columnar structure.
