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.

Markov chains and Monte Carlo Simulation were applied to account for the probabilistic nature of pavement deterioration over time using data collected in the field. The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate pavement network performance of Western Australia (WA) by applying the existing pavement management tools relevant to WA road construction networks. Two approaches were used to analyze the pavement networks: evaluating current pavement performance data to assess WA State Road networks and predicting the future states using past and current pavement data. The Markov chains process and Monte Carlo Simulation methods were used to predicting future conditions. The results indicated that Markov chains and Monte Carlo Simulation prediction models perform well compared to pavement performance data from the last four decades. The results also revealed the impact of design, traffic demand, and climate and construction standards on urban pavement performance. This study recommends an appropriate and effective pavement engineering management system for proper pavement design and analysis, preliminary planning, future pavement maintenance and rehabilitation, service life, and sustainable pavement construction functionality.

This paper addresses for the first time the use of complete data information criteria in unsupervised learning of the Naive-Bayes model. A Monte Carlo study sets a large experimental design to assess these criteria, unusual in the Bayesian network literature. The simulation results show that complete data information criteria underperforms the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) for these Bayesian networks.

By applying a configurational-bias Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo algorithm, priority simulation results regarding the conformation of non-dilute polyelectrolytes in solvents are obtained. Solutions of freely-jointed chains are considered, and a new method termed strandwise configurational-bias sampling is developed so as to effectively overcome a difficulty on the transfer of polymer chains. The structure factors of polyelectrolytes in the bulk as well as in the confined space are estimated with variations of the polymer charge density.

As the correct measuring of the light dosimetry in biological tissues give the important affection to the effect of PDT treatment we used Monte Carlo simulation to measure the light dosimetry on this study. The parameters using in experiments are the optical properties of the real biological tissue, and we used Henyey-Greenstein phase function among the phase functions. As we results, we displayed the result the change of Fluence rate and the difference against the previous theory was at least 0.35%. Biological tissues using in experiment were Human tissue, pig tissue, rat liver tissue and rabbit muscle tissue. The most of biological tissue have big scattering coefficient in visible wavelength which influences penetration depth. The penetration depth of human tissue in visible region is 1.5~2cm. We showed that it is possible to measure fluence rate and penetration depth within the biological tissues by Monte Carlo simulation very well.

This study proposes an inverse method for estimating the boundary temperature in a gas-filled, onedimensional parallel domain enclosed by parallel plates. The distance between the plates is considered submicron to one mm. In the current method, it is assumed that the conditions of both heat flux and temperature are simultaneously applicable to one boundary, while no conditions are applicable to the other boundary The temperature on one of the boundaries should be inversely determined from the known temperature and heat flux on the other boundary. This study proposes a procedure for estimating the unknown boundary temperature through Monte Carlo simulation. Both the forward and inverse problems employ the Monte Carlo approach. The forward (direct) problem is solved by using the direct simulation Monte Carlo while the inverse solution is obtained by the simulated annealing.

There has been steady effect for the development of the electron-beam lithography technologies for the circuit patterning of the future semiconductor devices. In this study, we have performed a Monte-Carlo simulation whore $1{\times}10^4$ electrons with various kinetic energies (100eV, 300eV, 500eV, 700eV, and 1000eV) were shot into polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA) resist of 100-nm thickness. The penetration depth of each electron beam in the resist layer were analyzed using Gaussian analysis method.

This paper proposes a method of moments(MoM)/Monte-Carlo simulation and Physical Optics(PO) model to determine Bistatic Coherent Reflectivity of sea surfaces at various wind speeds. For the MoM simulation, a Gaussian random rough sea surface was generated based on the data of Tae-An ocean at various wind speeds and sea surface heights. The numerical results of the MoM/Monte Carlo simulations were used to verify the validity region of the PO model. It was found that the numerical result for a flat surface agrees quite well with the Fresnel reflection coefficient. The validity of the PO model on the rough sea surface is shown by using ray tracing method.
