This paper presents a review of small-to-medium-sized, pressurized-water-cooled nuclear power reactors whose major primary coolant systems are integrated into a reactor pressure vessel, the concepts categorized as Integrated Primary System Nuclear Reactors (IPSRs). Typical examples of these proposals of interest in this review are CAREM, SMART, IRIS and IMR, all of which are being aimed at the near term deployment. Emphasis is placed on thermal hydraulic aspects. A brief characterization of the IPSR concepts is made and comparisons of plant key parameters are shown. Discussions will follow for the core cooling under rated power conditions and natural circulation heat removal on the basis of the design data available in the public domain.

As an Increased penetration level of renewable resources has caused concerns about primary frequency response, an increase in BESS(Battery Energy Storage System) capacity has been expected because of its fast response to the disturbances in the power system. This paper proposes the Integrated Control Strategy of multiple BESS for effectively providing the primary frequency control in the bulk power systems by coordinating the response, SOC and its recovery of BESS. The proposed strategy prevents multiple BESS from providing exceeding response and keeps the balance between SOC of multiple BESS. In addition, It would recover the SOC of BESS efficiently. The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is verified through various case studies employing Korean power system.

The design of agricultural facilities is the consistent activities, which systematically analyze all the actual conditions, design the unit structures, and improve the faming environment through efficient organization of the unit facility. The design of agricultural facilities is composed of site study, preliminary design, primary design, and detail design. Integrated design system can manage and process the information created by and used in all steps of design process. Formal data models of these design activities are important conceptual steps in development of integrated design system. However, most of existing models are not available for agricultural facilities. To support efficiently developing the integrated design system of agricultural facilities, we have developed the Multi-Layered Primitive-Composite mode I through object-oriented analysis of agricultural facilities. The MPC model not only satisfies the characteristics of agricultural facility, such as variety, coupling, informal data, but also improves abilities of integrated design system such as extensibility, flexibility, and granularity. The paper presents a formal definition of the MPC model.

There is a correlation between obesity and the amount of brown adipose tissue; however, the molecular mechanism of brown adipogenic differentiation has not been as extensively studied. In this study, we performed a protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) profiling analysis during the brown adipogenic differentiation of mouse primary brown preadipocytes. Several PTPs, including PTPRF, PTPRZ, and DUSP12 showing differential expression patterns were identified. In the case of DUSP12, the expression level is dramatically downregulated during brown adipogenesis. The ectopic expression of DUSP12 using a retroviral expression system induces the suppression of adipogenic differentiation, whereas a catalytic inactive DUSP12 mutant showed no effect on differentiation. These results suggest that DUSP12 is involved in brown adipogenic differentiation and may be used as a target protein for the treatment or prevention of obesity by the regulation of brown adipogenic differentiation.

지형공간정보체계 중 토지정보체계를 통하여 지형 및 지적자료의 통합활용에 관한 사용자들의 요구는 계속 증가하고 있어 그 해결방안에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 지형 및 지적자료의 통합에 따른 문제점해결을 위하여 자료의 오류유형검출 및 조정기법을 다루었다. 이를 위하여 먼저 도형자료와 속성자료로 나뉘어져 있는 지적자료의 1차 통합자료모형을 구현하였고 다음으로 지적자료 중 도형자료를 지형자료의 도형자료와 일치시키는 개선된 방법으로 지적자료와 지형자료에 대한 2차 통합자료모형을 구현하였다. 이와 같은 연구로부터 도형자료(지적도면)와 속성자료(부동산관리체계)가 이중으로 관리됨으로써 생기는 각종 오류유형 및 원인을 확인하였고, 1차 통합자료모형을 제작하여 이들 오류에 대한 개선 방안을 제시할 수 있었다. 또한 지적도를 지형도에 일치시키기 위하여 일반적인 rubber sheeting, 좌표변환 등 기존의 방법을 이용한 경우보다 본 연구에서 개발한 다중블록조정기법을 적용한 결과, 기준점과 필지 면적에 있어 보다 향상된 정확도를 확보함으로써 2차 통합자료모형을 구현할 수 있었다.

Nowadays, the modeling of systems have been enabled by various models and methodologies that are used for different purpose and perspectives upon the systems. The integrated modeling methodology that integrates these models and methodologies has become challenging issues in system integration such as CIM and PDM. The primary objective of this paper is to propose the comprehensive integrated modeling methodology that integrates the Extended IDEF0 function model, OOIDEF0 information model, navigation model, interface model, and organization model for an effective analysis and design of the CIMS for ship production. This methodology can be used for the integrated system, and cover the systems development life cycle in an integrated fashion. In order to prove the consistency and efficiency of the proposed methodology, the CIMS for ship production is modeled.

Agricultural irrigation facilities are designed to storage, carriage, distribution and drainage water. Although those facilities may have different primary purposes, their technical functions are interrelated systematically. This Study aimed at developing the optimized object for integrated design for irrigation facilities. of reservoir and channel facilities, which are related by irrigation system design. So, total 17 elementary facility object was developed.

Gunner primary sight stabilization system is a fully integrated sensor package designed to provide the stabilized Line-of-Sight. In this study, to improve disturbance rejection capabilities, two types of compensator (LQG/LTR, Lead-Lag) were designed and then stabilization performances were compared under severe off-road environment. Simulation results shows that the stabilization performances using LQG/LTR methodology is better than Lead-Lag methodology in spite of dynamic uncertainties.

As the spreading speed of electric vehicles increases rapidly, those are expected to be able to use them as flexible resources in the power system beyond the concern for the supply of its charging power. Especially when the Renewable Energy sources (RES) which have no intrinsic control capability have replaced the synchronous generators more and more, the power system needs to secure the additional frequency control resources to ensure its stability. However, the feasibility of using electric vehicles as the frequency control resources should be analyzed from the perspective of the power system operation and it requires the existing simulation frameworks for the power system. Therefore, this paper proposes the grid connected modeling of the primary frequency control provided by electric vehicles which can be integrated into the existing power system model. In addition, the proposed model is implemented considering technical performances constrained by the characteristics of the Vehicle-Grid Integration (VGI) system so that the simulation results can be accepted by the power utilities operating the power system conservatively.

In this paper, a soft switching DC-DC converter for AC module type photovoltaic (PV) module integrated converter is proposed. A push-pull converter is suitable for a low voltage PV AC module system because the step-up ratio of a high frequency transformer is high and the number of primary side switches is relatively small. However, the conventional push-pull converters do not have high efficiency because of high switching losses by hard switching and transformer losses (copper and iron losses) by high turns-ratio of the transformer. In the proposed converter, primary side switches are turned on at zero voltage switching (ZCS) condition and turned off at zero current switching (ZVS) condition through parallel resonance between secondary leakage inductance of the transformer and a resonant capacitor. Therefore the proposed push-pull converter decreases the switching loss using soft switching of the primary switches. Also, the turns-ratio of the transformer can be reduced by half using a voltage-doubler of secondary side. The theoretical analysis of the proposed converter is verified by simulation and experimental results.
