The efficient electric power demand management in electric power supply industry is currently being changed by distributed generation. Meanwhile, small-scale distributed generation systems using renewable energy are being constructed worldwide. Several small-scale renewable distributed generation systems, which can supply electricity to the grid at peak load of the grid as per policy such as demand response programs, could help in the stability of the electric power demand management. In this case, the power quality of the small-scale renewable distributed generation system is more significant. Low prices of power semiconductors and multilevel inverters with high power quality have been recently investigated. However, the conventional multilevel inverter topology is unsuitable for the small-scale renewable distributed generation system, because the number of devices of such topology increases with increasing output voltage level. In this paper, a single-phase multilevel inverter based on H-bridge, with DC_Link divided by bi-directional switches, is proposed. The proposed topology has almost half the number of devices of the conventional multilevel inverter topology when these inverters have the same output voltage level. Double Fourier series solution is mainly used when comparing PWM output harmonic components of various inverter topologies. Harmonic components of the proposed multilevel inverter, which have been analyzed by double Fourier series, are compared with those of the conventional multilevel inverter. An inverter prototype is then developed to verify the validity of the theoretical analysis.

In the Internet-of-Things (IoT) or blockchain-based network systems, secure keys may be stored in individual devices; thus, individual devices should protect data by performing secure operations on the data transmitted and received over networks. Typically, secure functions, such as a physical unclonable function (PUF) and fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), are useful for generating safe keys and distributing data in a network. However, to provide these functions in embedded devices for IoT or blockchain systems, proper inspection is required for designing and implementing embedded system-on-chip (SoC) modules through overhead and performance analysis. In this paper, a virtual platform (SoC VP) was developed that includes a secure key generation module with a PUF and FHE. The SoC VP platform was implemented using SystemC, which enables the execution and verification of various aspects of the secure key generation module at the electronic system level and analyzes the system-level execution time, memory footprint, and performance, such as randomness and uniqueness. We experimentally verified the secure key generation module, and estimated the execution of the PUF key and FHE encryption based on the unit time of each module.

Background and objectives: One-person households are the fastest growing family type in Korea. They bring social concerns such as weakened social integration, increasing poverty and social isolation. They are not homogeneous but heterogeneous groups depending on their socio-demographic characteristics including generation. This study compared the life satisfaction level as well as factors affecting it among the three one-person household generations Methods: The 13th wave of the Korea Welfare Panel dataset with 1,187 respondents was utilized. For data analysis Chi-square test, analysis of variance and hierarchical regression analysis were employed. Generations are divided into three, namely young adult (20-39), the middle-aged (40-64) and the elderly (65 and over). Result: The life satisfaction level was highest among the young adult one-person household generation, followed by the middle-aged and the elderly generation. The common factors affecting life satisfaction of the three generations were physical as well as mental health, including self-esteem and depression. However, there were more factors different from generation to generation. As for the young adult, age, religion, and smoking were significant. As for the middle aged and the elderly, gender (male) and income were significant. Additionally, age, home-ownership and drinking were significant to the elderly generation. Conclusions: As there are differences as well as similarities among the three generations, policies for one-person households need to be devised considering these findings. For all generations, both physical and mental health policies are needed. For young adult strengthening social relations, providing decent jobs, and promoting anti-smoking policy are major agenda, and for the middle-aged and the elderly, assisting in social capital accumulation (for male), providing stable jobs and diverse leisure activities, and securing income. Additionally, for the elderly, expanding the social security system and housing support are needed.

As climate change and environmental pollution become one of the biggest global issues today, new renewable energy, especially solar photovoltaic (PV) system, is getting great attention as a sustainable energy source. However, initial investment cost of PV system is considerable, and thus, it is crucial to predict electricity generation accurately before installation of the system. This study analyzes the loss ratio of solar photovoltaic electricity generation from the actual PV system monitoring data to predict electricity generation more accurately in advance. This study is carried out with the following five steps: (i) Data collection of actual electricity generation from PV system and the related information; (ii) Calculation of simulation-based electricity generation; (iii) Comparative analysis between actual electricity generation and simulation-based electricity generation based on the seasonality; (iv) Stochastic approach by defining probability distribution of loss ratio between actual electricity generation and simulation-based electricity generation ; and (v) Case study by conducting Monte-Carlo Simulation (MCS) based on the probability distribution function of loss ratio. The results of this study could be used (i) to estimate electricity generation from PV system more accurately before installation of the system, (ii) to establish the optimal maintenance strategy for the different application fields and the different season, and (iii) to conduct feasibility study on investment at the level of life cycle.

교통신호와 개별 통행자의 경로선택은 서로 상호작용하는 관계이다. 통행자의 경로 선택은 교통신호에 따라 결정될 수 있으며 또한 최적의 교통신호 역시 이동류별 교통량에 따라 달라지게된다. 본 연구는 양방향 링크를 포함하는 4현시 교차로로 구성된 네트워크에서 모든 이동류에 대하여 교통신호의 영향을 반영할 수 있는 통행배정 모형을 구축하고 이를 신호최적화 문제와 결합하여 네트워크의 총 지체를 최소화하는 신호제어변수와 통행배정 결과를 산출하는 모형을 bi-level problem으로 구축하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 경로기반 통행배정 모형은 M.H. Xu 등이 제한한 Column Generation 방법의 일종인 heuristic Equilibrium Assignment 기법을 기반으로 하여 교차로의 이동류별 통행비용을 고려할 수 있도록 수정하여 구성하였으며 지체최소화를 목적함수로하는 신호최적화 방법론으로는 Genetic Algorithm을 사용하였다. 본 모형을 모의네트워크에 적용하여 실험한 결과 네트워크의 통행비용함수를 최소화하는 신호변수와 통행자의 경로선택 결과를 산출하였다.

This paper presents a method to calculate generation power for integrating Sihwa tidal power into power systems. The sea levels of 1 minute interval using cubic interpolation based on the forecasted levels of high and low water offered from Nori(National Oceanographic Research Institute) are calculated. If the sea level is greater than the lake level and the difference between sea level and lake level at high tide is over the default value, it begins to calculate the tidal power. It is seen that tidal power can supply power to demand side stably and economically from assessment of effect for integrating tidal power into power systems.

The methodology of automatic generation of tool path for rough cutting of a sculptured surface is proposed with the improved contouring method, unequal level line machining. Considering the surface shape and the diameter of the endmill, the distance between level lines is obtained. To improve MMR, initial rough cutting is processed with the large diameter endmill and the remained material is removed by the relatively small diameter endmill. Tool path is generated from the offset curve of respective level line and the interferences between the tool and workpiece are automatically avoided. After generating NC part program, the sculptured surface is machined at the vertical machining center. From the experimental results, total cutting length and machining time are reduced more effectively than conventional contouring methods.
