Recently as a progress of electric technology, modern electric systems become more and more complicated. Thus, it is difficult to use a classical method to analyze responses of the systems in complicated electromagnetic environments because there are so many coupling phenomena. The electromagnetic topology (EMT) is a helpful solution to analyze electromagnetic interference / electromagnetic compatibility (EMI/EMC) of the large complex system. In this paper, EMT is applied to analyze an active element. And then to prove the validity of this analysis, a detector circuit including Schottky barrier diode is analyzed by EMT when input power is given directly.

Coal power plants are large, non-linear systems with numerous interactions between its component parts. In the analysis of such complex systems, dynamic simulation is recognized as a powerful method of keeping track of the myriad of interactions. This paper shows and discusses the developed analysis model, such as the forced draft fan the primary air fan, the furnace and burner system, air preheater and induced draft fan, etc. in accordance with BMCR condition of boiler using the Modular Modeling System(MMS) software.

Verification is a process aimed at demonstrating whether a system meets it's specified requirements. As expert systems are used in various applications, the knowledge base verification of systems fakes an important position. The conventional Petri net approach that has been studied recently in order to verify the knowledge base is found that it is inadequate to verify the knowledge base of large and complex system, such as alarm processing system of nuclear power plant. Thus, we propose an improved method that models the knowledge base as enhanced colored Petri net. In this study. we analyze the reachability and the error characteristics of the knowledge base and apply the method to verification of simple knowledge base.

According as the controlled plants become more complex and large-scaled, the development of more intelligent control schemes is required in the control field. A fuzzy logic control (FLC) is one of proper schemes for this tendency. Recently, fuzzy control has been applied successfully to many industrial applications due to a number of advantages. But it still has some disadvantages. The conventional FLC has many tuning parameters: membership functions, scaling factors, and so forth. In order to improve this problem, a single-input fuzzy logic control (SFIC) which greatly simplifies the design process of the conventional FLC was proposed. Many research has also been proposed to develop the stability analysis of the FLC. In this paper we analyze the absolute stability of the SFLC. We first expand a nonlinear controlled plant into a Taylor series about a nominal operating point. And a fuzzy control system is transformed into a Lure system with nonlinearities. We also prove that the closed-loop system with the SFLC satisfies the sector condition globally.

This paper presents a new approach which is able to determine the reasonable incentive levels of direct load control using sequential Monte Carlo simulation techniques. The economic analysis needs to determine the reasonable incentive level. However, the conventional methods have been based on the scenario methods because they had not considered all cases of the direct load control situations. To overcome there problems, this paper proposes a new technique using sequential Monte Carlo simulation. The Monte Carlo method is a simple and flexible tool to consider large scale systems and complex models for the components of the system. To show its effectiveness, numerical studies were performed to indicate the possible applications of the proposed technique.

Component-based development approach is used in modern software system development projects that are very complex and large-scale. Technical components are more effective rather than business components in software development. However, on the Microsoft .net environment, the technical component-based development issues are not adopted. Moreover, software architecture on the .net environment is not studied yet because the development platform is recently used in the development of enterprise-level system. This paper proposes a technical component-based software architecture on .net environment. Seven technical components - configuration, data access, exception, file I/O, log, message, and paging - are contained in the architecture. The proposed architecture enables developers to reduce development time and to concentrate business logic rather than architectural issues. To verify the proposed architecture and the components, a partner management system is developed based on the architecture.

This paper presents a method for optimal dispatch which minimizes transmission losses and improves voltage profile of power systems using genetic algorithm based on the mechanism of natural genetics and natural selection. The constraints are VAR sources(transformer tap, generator voltage magnitude and shunt capacitor/reactor), load bus voltages and generator reactive power. Real variable-based genetic algorithms which can save coding times and maintain the accuracy are applied for optimal dispatch of reactive power. The genes of genetic algorithm consisted of integers for considering discrete VAR sources. A efficient operator for crossover is proposed to consider the effect of close genes. The algorithm proposed can apply to problems for large scale power systems with multi-variables and complex nonlinear functions efficiently. The proposed method is applied to IEEE 30 buses model system to show its effectiveness.

Modern combat (or commertial) aircraft systems consist of a large number of sophisticated and complex avionics/electronics subsystems. The US Air Force of Productivity, Reliability, Availability and Maintainability (PRAM) reports that 25 to 45 percent of aircraft system failures in the electronics or electromechanical area 〔Kachmar, 1985〕. It is an important issue to achive the required reliability and maintainability for avionics/electronics subsystems in order to guarantee the mission success during the life cycle in a timely and cost effective manner. The issuance of USAF Mil-A-87244, "Avionics/Electronic Integrity Program requirements," 1987 demands a new approach called "Avionics/Electronics Integrity Program" (AVIP). The objective of this paper is to give a tutorial presentation on the basic aspects of Avionics/Electronics Integrity efforts in relation to total quality management of avionics/electronics whose performance measures are expressed in terms of reliability, durability, and matainability.

This paper describes an approach for the incorporation of maintenance times into a hierarchical scheduling for a failure prone flexible manufacturing system. The maintenance should not be performed too often because of the resulting reduction of capacity. Most manufacturing systems are large and complex. It is natural to divide the control into a hierarchy consisting of a number of different levels. Each level is characterized by the length of the planning horizon and the kind of data required for the decision making process. The goal of the analysis reported here is to calculate the production requirements while the machines fail and are repaired at random times. The machine failure and preventive maintenance are considered simultaneously.

The simplest method which has been used extensively for vibration analysis is the transfer matrix method introduced by Myklestad and was later extended by many researchers. The crude approximation results in considerable error on the predicted natural frequencies and to increase the accuracy the number of elements used in the analysis must be increased. In addition, numerical instability can occur as a result of matrix multiplication. Also the main disadvantage of the finite element method is the large computer memory requirements for complex systems. The new method proposed in this paper combines the transfer matrix and finite dynamic element techniques to form a powerful algorithm for vibration analysis of rotor system. It is shown that the accuracy improves significantly when the transfer matrix for each segment is obtained from finite dynamic element techniques.
