Upon detecting a frequency event in a power system, the stepwise inertial control (SIC) of a wind turbine generator (WTG) instantly increases the power output for a preset period so as to arrest the frequency drop. Afterwards, SIC rapidly reduces the WTG output to avert over-deceleration (OD). However, such a rapid output reduction may act as a power deficit in the power system, and thereby cause a second frequency dip. In this paper, a hybrid reference function for the stable SIC of a doubly-fed induction generator is proposed to prevent OD while improving the frequency nadir (FN). To achieve this objective, a reference function is separately defined prior to and after the FN. In order to improve the FN when an event is detected, the reference is instantly increased by a constant and then maintained until the FN. This constant is determined by considering the power margin and available kinetic energy. To prevent OD, the reference decays with the rotor speed after the FN. The performance of the proposed scheme was validated under various wind speed conditions and wind power penetration levels using an EMTP-RV simulator. The results clearly demonstrate that the scheme successfully prevents OD while improving the FN at different wind conditions and wind power penetration levels. Furthermore, the scheme is adaptive to the size of a frequency event.

Objective : Helicopter ambulance transport (HAT) is a highly resource-intensive facility that is a well-established part of the trauma transport system in many developed countries. Here, we review the benefit of HAT for neurosurgical patients in Korea. Methods : This retrospective study followed neurotrauma patients who were transferred by HAT to a single emergency trauma center over a period of 2 years. The clinical benefits of HAT were measured according to the necessity of emergency surgical intervention and the differences in the time taken to transport patients by ground ambulance transport (GAT) and HAT. Results : Ninety-nine patients were transferred to a single university hospital using HAT, of whom 32 were taken to the neurosurgery department. Of these 32 patients, 10 (31.3%) needed neurosurgical intervention, 14 (43.8%) needed non-neurosurgical intervention, 3 (9.4%) required both, and 11 (34.4%) did not require any intervention. The transfer time was faster using HAT than the estimated time needed for GAT, although for a relatively close distance (<50 km) without ground obstacles (mountain or sea) HAT did not improve transfer time. The cost comparison showed that HAT was more expensive than GAT (3,292,000 vs. 84,000 KRW, p<0.001). Conclusion : In this Korean-based study, we found that HAT has a clinical benefit for neurotrauma cases involving a transfer from a distant site or an isolated area. A more precise triage for using HAT should be considered to prevent overuse of this expensive transport method.

Ip-yeong or gat-keun decorate heuk-rip, supplementing its simplicity. When the wind blew, a dynamic beauty was created, especially if the gat-keun was made with long straps of jade or silk. Basically, ip-yeong was a practical chin strap to hold the gat tight on the head. Commoners made ip-yeong by folding cotton cloth or fine gauze. However, as available materials became diversified, people used cloth, jade, agate, amber, coral, gold medallion, rock crystal and bamboo as well, juk-yeong, which was made with bamboo, became popular especially when Heungsun Daewon-gun, the father of King Kojong, decreed that people wear simple clothes. Most records concerning ip-yeong in Chosun-wangjo-shillok, the authentic record of the Joseon Dynasty, are related to forbidding a sumptuous life. The book also suggests that ip-yeong was bestowed by the king or was offered to foreign diplomats as gifts. Ip-yeong doesn't seem to be a unique system for Korea. Based on portraits or paintings where ip-yeong can be found, it seems to have been widely used during the Yuan dynasty and the Goryeo dynasty. The system disappeared in China as the Ming Dynasty was established, but it remained in use in the Korean Goryeo dynasty and through the Joseon. Literature suggests that the same materials were used for ip-yeong from the beginning of Joseon to the end of the dynasty. Guyeongja refers to a ring that connects an ipja to a chin strap. Guyeongja made with silver, bronze and jade still remain. In gungjungbalgi, the royal court inventory book, records of imogarye can be found (1882), where ten pairs of pure gold strap rings and ten pairs of gold-plated ones were used for a royal wedding.

In order to breed a new Pleurotus eryngii cultivar with a large pileus and convex shape, which are favorite traits of customers from Europe and North America, single crosses between monokaryotic mycelia derived from basidiospores of KNR2555 were performed to yield the new cultivar $2{\times}12$ chosen by cap shape (convex), diameter of pileus (60.7 mm), and quality (4.9) in a preliminary cultivation. The strain was named Gat_aeryni and was cultivated on a large scale for comparison with Kenneutari 2 ho at the GNARES and at mushroom farms. The yield of Gat_aeryni (71.7 g) was not significantly different from that of Kenneutari 2 ho (71.4 g), and the quality of the new cultivar was 6.8, which was not significantly different from that of a reference cultivar (6.5). Days for harvest, length, and diameter of the pileus in the two cultivars were statistically different by an independent t-test (P < 0.001, P < 0.05, P < 0.001 and P < 0.05 respectively). The new and reference cultivars were discriminated by PCR reactions with a primer set (URP1 and URP10) and simultaneous cultivation.

To avoid undesirable disconnection of healthy wind generators (WGs) or a wind power plant, a WG protection relay should discriminate among faults, so that it can operate instantaneously for WG, connected feeder or connection bus faults, it can operate after a delay for inter-tie or grid faults, and it can avoid operating for parallel WG or adjacent feeder faults. A WG protection relay based on the positive- and negative-sequence fault components is proposed in the paper. At stage 1, the proposed relay uses the magnitude of the positive-sequence component in the fault current to distinguish faults requiring non-operation response from those requiring instantaneous or delayed operation responses. At stage 2, the fault type is first determined using the relationships between the positive- and negative-sequence fault components. Then, the relay differentiates between instantaneous operation and delayed operation based on the magnitude of the positive-sequence fault component. Various fault scenarios involving changes in position and type of fault and faulted phases are used to verify the performance of the relay. This paper concludes by implementing the relay on a hardware platform based on a digital signal processor. Results indicate that the relay can successfully distinguish the need for instantaneous, delayed, or non-operation.

An experimental study was carried out to evaluate the characteristics of transient performance of carburettered gasoline engine under rapid accelerating transient driving conditions. In order to evaluate the characteristics of transient performance quantitatively, the concept of dead time $t_d$ response delay time $t_r$ are introduced. Performance parameters such as air mass fiowrate Gat, engine speed N, manifold boost pressure Pb, and output torque T are measured simultaneously during the rapid opening of the throttle valve by the stepping motor. During the rapid opening of the throttle valve, air mass fiowrate Gat is increased immediately without delay time, but response of engine revolution N, and output torque T are delayed. Therefore hesitation, and stumble phenomena are occurred. Dead time $t_d$ and response delay time $t_r$ of engine revolution N, which is extremely delayed comparing to other performance parameters, are respectively 0.2-0.3sec., 3.0-4.6sec., and dead time rate $t_d/{\Delta}t$ and response delay time rate $t_r/{\Delta}t$ are linearly increased with the throttle valve opening rate ${\theta}$ during the acceleration from 12 degree to 20 degree at 1250rpm.

This study investigates how common English hedge expressions such as 'I think' and 'I guess' appear in Korean, with the aim of providing explicit explanation for English-speaking leaners of Korean. Based on a contrastive analysis of spoken English and Korean corpus, this study argues three points: Firstly, 'I guess' appears with a wider variety of modalities in Korean than 'I think'. Secondly, this study has found that Korean textbooks contain inappropriate use of registers regarding the English translations of '-geot -gat-': although these markers are used in spoken Korean, they were translated into written English. Therefore, this study suggests that '-geot -gat-' be translated into 'I think' in spoken English, and into 'it seems' in the case of written English and narratives. Lastly, the contrastive analysis has shown that when 'I think' is used with deontic modalities such as 'I think I have to', Korean use '-a-ya-get-': the use of hedge marker 'I think' with 'I have to', which shows obligation or speaker's volition turns the deontic modalities into expressions of speaker's opinion.

In recent years, graph neural networks (GNNs) have been extensively used to analyze graph data across various domains because of their powerful capabilities in learning complex graph-structured data. However, recent research has focused on improving the performance of a single GNN with only two or three layers. This is because stacking layers deeply causes the over-smoothing problem of GNNs, which degrades the performance of GNNs significantly. On the other hand, ensemble methods combine individual weak models to obtain better generalization performance. Among them, gradient boosting is a powerful supervised learning algorithm that adds new weak models in the direction of reducing the errors of the previously created weak models. After repeating this process, gradient boosting combines the weak models to produce a strong model with better performance. Until now, most studies on GNNs have focused on improving the performance of a single GNN. In contrast, improving the performance of GNNs using multiple GNNs has not been studied much yet. In this paper, we propose gradient boosted graph neural networks (GBGNN) that combine multiple shallow GNNs with gradient boosting. We use shallow GNNs as weak models and create new weak models using the proposed gradient boosting-based loss function. Our empirical evaluations on three real-world datasets demonstrate that GBGNN performs much better than a single GNN. Specifically, in our experiments using graph convolutional network (GCN) and graph attention network (GAT) as weak models on the Cora dataset, GBGNN achieves performance improvements of 12.3%p and 6.1%p in node classification accuracy compared to a single GCN and a single GAT, respectively.

A new aniline-utilizing microorganism, strain HY1 obtained from an orchard soil, was characterized by using the BIOLOG system, an analysis of the total cellular fatty acids, and a 16S rDNA sequence. Strain HY1 was identified as a Burkholderia species, and was designated Burkholderia sp. HY1. GC and HPLC analyses revealed that Burkholderia sp. HY1 was able to degrade aniline to produce catechol, which was subsequently converted to cis,cis-muconic acid through an ortho-ring fission pathway under aerobic conditions. Strain HY1 exhibited a drastic reduction in the rate of aniline degradation when glucose was added to the aniline media. However, the addition of peptone or nitrate to the aniline media dramatically accelerated the rate of aniline degradation. A fatty acid analysis showed that strain HY1 was able to produce lipids 16:0 2OH, and 11 methyl 18:1 ${\omega}7c$ approximately 3.7-, 2.2-, and 6-fold more, respectively, when grown on aniline media than when grown on TSA. An analysison the alignment of a 1,435 bp fragment. A phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rDNA sequence based on a 1,420 bp multi-alignment sowed of the 16s rDNA sequence revealed that strain HY1 was very closely related to Burkholderia graminis with 95% similarity based that strain HY1 was placed among three major clonal types of $\beta$-Proteobacteria, including Burkholderia graminis, Burkholderia phenazinium, and Burkholderia glathei. The sequence GAT(C or G)${\b{G}}$, which is highly conserved in several locations in the 16S rDNA gene among the major clonal type strains of $\beta$-Proteobacteria, was frequently replaced with GAT(C or G)${\b{A}}$ in the 16S rDNA sequence from strain HY1.

In this study, quality characteristics of three different kinds of Gat Kimchi, added with Cheonnyuncho fruit (C-fruit) water extract, Cheonnyuncho cladodes (C-cladodes) water extract, and without Cheonnyuncho water extract (control group), were investigated during storage for 80 days at $5{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. In terms of mineral content of Gat Kimchi, C-fruit group showed higher calcium and zinc contents than the control group, whereas Cheonnyuncho groups showed higher iron content, and C-cladodes showed higher potassium content than the control group. The pH was mostly higher in Cheonnyuncho groups than in the control group until 40 days of storage, whereas the pH of the C-cladodes group significantly decreased after 60 days. On the other hand, titratable acidity showed the reverse tendency during storage. Hunter's color L, a, and b values all increased during the storage period. The hardness value was significantly higher in Cheonnyuncho groups than in the control group after 40 days of storage, and hardness value of the C-fruit group was significantly higher than those of the other groups after 80 days of storage. In terms of sensory evaluation, there was no significant difference between the control group and Cheonnyuncho group during fermentation. As a result, the study suggests that addition of C-fruit extracts increase nutrition and function of Gat Kimchi during storage.
