As global warming due to burning fossil fuels and natural resource depletion issues have emerged, the development of renewable energy sources such as photovoltaics (PV) has been brought to recent interest. Amongst the vast efforts to harvest and convert solar energy into electricity, the module integrated converters (MIC) has become a worthy topic of research for grid-connected photovoltaic systems. Due to the required high-boosting qualities, only a restricted amount of DC/DC converter topologies can be applied to MICs. This paper investigates the possibility of a tapped-inductor boost converter as a candidate for PV MICs. A dual-inductor interleaving scheme operating slightly above the boundary of the two conduction modes (BCM) is suggested for reduction of input current ripple and minimization of component stress. A digital controller is used for implementation, assuring maximum power tracking and transfer while providing sufficient computational space for other grid connectivity applications, etc. For verification, a 200W converter is designed and simulated via computer software including component losses. High efficiency over a wide power range proves the feasibility of the proposed PV MIC system.

Nowadays, as the increasing functionality and scales of embedded systems, system design grows more complex than before. So verification and simulation of systems become an important facet in hardware-software co-design issues. But it is almost impossible to simulate an embedded system without real hardware implementation or environment communication, especially for control-dominated reactive systems. Therefore, in this paper, we will introduce a GUI environment module generator for integrated Esterel\C++ simulation. By generating the GUI modeling environment, we can simulate and verify the whole embedded system conveniently.

The containment leakage rate test performed on the nuclear power plants consists of following phases : pressurizing the containment, stabilizing the atmosphere, conducting a Type A test, conducting a verification test, depressurizing the containment. It takes more than 48 hours from the pressurization to the depressurization and the prediction of the results will help to prepare the next test phase. In this paper, to predict the leakage rate, the prediction methods based on the least square method are evaluated according to the input variables and the measurement period.

In this paper, we have space vector PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) circuits on the FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Arry) chip designed by VHDL(Very high speed integrated circuit Hardware Description Language). This circuit parts was required at controlling the AC servo motor system and should have been designed with many discrete digital logics. In the result of this study, peripheral circuits are to be simple and the designed logic terms are robust and precise. Because of it's easy verification and implementation, we could deduced that the customize FPGA chip show better performance than that of circuit modules parts constituted of discrete IC.

The purpose of this research is to provide a desirable case of STEAM education utilizing 'Energy and Transportation Technology' unit on the subject of technology home economics. The middle school students learned with the integrated approach based on STEAM integrated education, and through production process they had the opportunity for application and expression in diverse forms. The results of this process to achieve the purpose are as follows. First, as the procedural model to develop STEAM program utilizing 'Energy and Transportation Technology' unit on the subject of technology home economics, the five stages: preparation, development, verification, practice, and evaluation, were presented. The preparation stage was composed of requirement analysis, the selection of program subject, and STEAM program curriculum analysis, the selection and organization of STEAM program lesson. The development stage was composed of the development of lesson plan, multimedia teaching materials, worksheet and worksheet answer key. In the verification stage, the verification of validity by experts was conducted, and in the practice stage, the developed program was applied to the middle school students in the educational field, and in the evaluation stage, based on the evaluations received from learners and teachers, it was revised and supplemented. Second, the STEAM program was developed into the program summary map, lesson plan, multimedia teaching materials, worksheet and worksheet answer, etc., and after the validity was secured through experts' verification, it was revised and supplemented and applied to actual classes. Third, the results of the learners' evaluation of the developed STEAM program showed that the degree of satisfaction with the program was high with the average score of the entire questions being 4.00 on a five-point scale. As the teachers also evaluated the developed STEAM program as very effective, the opinions of learners and teachers were collected and the program was finally improved and completed.

Although the weapon systems are becoming more diverse and complex, they are progressing in a short development period and a longer test and evaluation period. The more difficult the given environment is, the more efforts and performance of quantitative target values can be made by development agencies to carry out stable projects. However, these target values of the Integrated Logistics Support are not specified in the requirements and being set during the system development phase. In this paper, application of MOEs, MOPs and TPMs for ILS are presented and provided the basis for carrying out systematic Verification & Validation activities. As a result that MOEs of the ILS were chosen as Availability and MOPs as Mission Reliability, Logistics Reliability, Maintainability and Supportability and TPMs as MTBF, MTBCF, MTTR and so on. In particular, it is appropriate tailoring and apply the TPMs considering the cost, schedule, scope of work and characteristics of the project.

In this study, we propose an innovative lateral force distribution building system between tall buildings by utilizing the difference of moment of inertia, as the alternative design for highly integrated city area. Considering a tri-axial symmetric conditions and boundary conditions for the three-dimensional building structure system, a two-dimensional model is composed. In the proposed indeterminate structural model, important design variables are determined for obtaining minimum horizontal deflections, reactions and bending moments at the ground level of the buildings. Regarding a case of the provided two spatial structures connected to 4 buildings, the optimum location of middle located spatial structure is 45% from the top of the building, which minimize the end moments at the bottom of the buildings. In the considered verification examples, reduced drifts at the top location of the building systems are validated against static wind pressure loads and static earthquake loads. The suggested hybrid building system will improve the safety and reliability of the system due to the added internal truss-dome structures in terms of more than 30% reduced drift and vibration through the development of convergence of tall buildings and spatial structures.
