  • In order to alleviate the negative impacts of harmonically distorted grid condition on grid-connect inverters, an optimal control design-based gain selection scheme of an LCL-filtered grid-connected inverter and its ability to compensate selective harmonics are presented in this paper. By incorporating resonant terms into the control structure in the state-space to provide infinity gain at selected frequencies, the proposed control offers an excellent steady-state response even under distorted grid voltage. The proposed control scheme is achieved by using a state feedback controller for stabilization purpose and by augmenting the resonant terms as well as intergral term into a control structure for reference tracking and harmonic compensation. Furthermore, the optimal linear quadratic control approach is adopted for choosing an optimal feedback gain to ensure an asymptotic stability of the whole system. A discrete-time full state observer is also introduced into the proposed control scheme for the purpose of reducing a total number of sensors used in the inverter system. The simulation results are given to prove the effectiveness and validity of the proposed control scheme.

  • In this paper, we designed the transparent circuit analog radar absorbing structure using printed metal grid mesh for enhanced optical transmittance. To obtain wideband electromagnetic absorption and enhanced optical transparency at X-band, we proposed the resistive FSS(Frequency Selective Surface) using printed metal mesh pattern on transparent glass with PEC(Perfect Electric Conductor) plane using ITO(Indium Thin Oxide) coating. We then fabricated the proposed structure to verify the simulation results obtained from commercial EM simulator. The comparisons between the simulation and measured results show good agreements. The results also show that the proposed radar absorbing structure can provide wideband reflection as well as better optical transparency. We can apply this proposed structure to the canopy of stealth aircraft and other stealth and security applications for visible transparency.

  • The numerical simulation of wave slamming on a 3D platform deck was investigated using a coupled Level-Set and Volume-of-Fluid (CLSVOF) method for overset grid system incorporated into the Finite-Analytic Navier-Stokes (FANS) method. The predicted slamming impact forces were compared with the corresponding experimental data. The comparisons showed that the CLSVOF method is capable of accurately predicting the slamming impact and capturing the violent free surface flow including wave slamming, wave inundation and wave recession. Moreover, the capability of the present CLSVOF method for overset grid system is a prominent feature to handle the prediction of wave slamming on offshore structure.

  • This article outlines the capabilities of a viewer component called GridViewer, and proves its reusability. GridViewer was designed for the construction of the image display part of GIS or remote sensing application software, and consequently it is particularly straightforward to closely couple GridViewer with access to very large images. Displaying is performed through pyramid structure, which enables to treat very large dataset up to several gigabytes in size under the limited capability of PC. GridViewer is free from responsibility to handle various formats of raster data files by taking grid coverage, which is designed by OGC to promote interoperability between implementations done by data vendors and software vendors providing analysis and grid processing implementations. GridViewer differs from other such viewer by allowing for clients to extend its function and capability by using small set of methods originally implemented in it. We show its reusability and expandability by applying it in developing application programs performing various functions not supported originally by the GridViewer COM component.

  • Doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) systems widely used globally are highly sensitive to the grid disturbance due to the structure that the stator is connected to the grid. In the past, when a grid fault occurs in order to prevent a system, generators are separated from the grid regardless of the fault duration time. Recently, however, the grid connection standards(Grid Code)says that for the failures removed within a certain time, the generator remains operation without separating from the grid. This paper proposes a new flux tracking LVRT(Low-Voltage Ride Through) control based on system modeling equations. The validity of the proposed strategy has been demonstrated by computer simulations.

  • Skyline queries are used extensively to solve various problems, such as in decision-making, because they find data that meet a variety of user criteria. Recent research has focused on skyline queries by using the MapReduce framework for large database processing, mainly in terms of applying existing index structures to MapReduce. In a skyline, data closer to the origin dominate more area. However, the existing index structure does not reflect such characteristics of the skyline. In this paper, we propose a grid-block structure that groups grid cells to match the characteristics of a skyline, and a two-level grid-block structure that can be used even when there are no data close to the origin. We also propose an efficient skyline-query algorithm that uses the two-level grid-block structure.

  • The grid structure with bolt-sphere joints is widely adopted by industrial plants with suspending crane. The alternating reciprocating action of the suspending crane will cause fatigue problems of the grid structure with bolt-sphere joints with respect to the rod, the cone, the sealing plate, the bolt ball and the high strength bolt; while the fatigue of the high strength bolt is the key issue of fatigue failure. Based on efficient and smooth loading equipment with the AMSLER fatigue testing machine, this paper conducted a constant amplitude fatigue test on 18 M20 and 14 M30 high strength bolts with 40Cr material, and obtained 19 valid failure points, 9 unspoiled points with more than 2 million cycles, and 4 abnormal failure points. In addition, it established the constant amplitude fatigue design method, ${[{\Delta}{\sigma}]_{{2{\times}10}}{^6=58.91MPa}$, and analyzed the stress concentration and the fatigue fracture of high strength bolts. It can be explained that the geometrical stress concentration of high-strength bolt caused by spiral burr is severe.

  • Fatigue failure of a grid structure using bolt-sphere joints is liable to occur in a high-strength bolt due to the alternating and reciprocal actions of a suspension crane. In this study, variable amplitude fatigue tests were carried out on 20 40 Cr steel alloy M30 high-strength bolts using an MTS fatigue testing machine, and four cyclic stress amplitude loading patterns, Low-High, High-Low, Low-High-Low, and High-Low-High, were tested. The scanning electron microscope images of bolt fatigue failure due to variable amplitude stress were obtained, and the fractographic analysis of fatigue fractures was performed to investigate the fatigue failure mechanisms. Based on the available data from the constant amplitude fatigue tests, the variable amplitude fatigue life of an M30 high-strength bolt in a bolt-sphere joint was estimated using both Miner's rule and the Corten-Dolan model. Since both cumulative damage models gave similar predictions, Miner's rule is suggested for estimating the variable-amplitude fatigue life of M30 high-strength bolts in a grid structure with bolt-sphere joints; the S-N fatigue curve of the M30 high-strength bolts under variable amplitude loading was derived using equivalent stress amplitude as a design parameter.

  • The MFS (Mlti-Functional Structure) concept, which integrates the electronics, thermal control and structure into a single packaging system, has been developed and applied to reduce the volume and weight of the satellite. Therefore, this MFS can eliminate the bulky chassis/frames, cables and connectors of the electronic equipment. The main point of this traditional MFS is the replacement of the electrical chassis/frames with MCMs (Multi-Chip Modules) that require much costs and efforts for developing. This paper shows the new MFS concept that effectively saves the volume and weight. The structure including the thermal control and radiation shielding elements will be designed and manufactured as the rectangular grid-stiffened structure. The rectangular grid-stiffened structure is the modification of the iso-grid structure, and provides the enough spaces for putting the general PCBs without the chassis/frames.

  • Effect of the nonuniform grid on the two-dimensional transport equation was investigated in terms of theoretical analysis and finite difference method (FDM). The nonuniform grid having a typical structure of the numerical weather forecast model was incorporated in the vertical direction, while the uniform grid was used in the zonal direction. The staggered and non-staggered grid were placed in the vertical and zonal direction, respectively. Time stepping was performed with the third-order Runge Kutta scheme. An error analysis of the spatial discretization on the nonuniform grid was carried out, which indicated that the combined effect of the nonuniform grid and advection velocity produced either numerical diffusion or numerical adverse-diffusion. An analytic function is used for the quantitative evaluation of the errors associated with the discretized transport equation. Numerical experiments with the non-uniformity of vertical grid were found to support the analysis.
