The design cycle associated with large engineering systems requires an initial decomposition of the complex system into design processes which are coupled through the transference of output data. Some of these design processes may be grouped into iterative subcycles. In analyzing or optimizing such a coupled system, it is essential to determine the best order of the processes within these subcycles to reduce design cycle time and cost. This is accomplished by decomposing large multidisciplinary problems into several sub design structure matrices (DSMs) and processing them in parallel This paper proposes a new method for parallel decomposition of multidisciplinary problems to improve design efficiency by using the multi-objective genetic algorithm and two sample test cases are presented to show the effect of the suggested decomposition method.

This paper addresses the small-signal analysis of the multi-phase interleaved boost converter with the coupled inductors operated in the continuous inductor current mode. The generalized and analytical expressions for the transfer functions of interest are derived for various inductor couplings. The dynamic characteristics are analyzed according to the inductor couplings and verified experimentally. The proposed frequency models will be very useful to design the dynamic controllers of the multi-phase interleaved boost converters.

In the framework of the EU funded project NURESAFE, the subchannel code CTF and the neutronics code DYN3D were integrated and coupled on the NURESIM platform. The developments achieved during this 3-year project include assembly-level and pin-by-pin multiphysics thermal hydraulics/neutron kinetics coupling. In order to test this coupling, a PWR rod ejection transient was simulated on a MOX/UOX minicore. The transient is simulated using two different models of the minicore. In the first simulation, both codes model the core with an assembly-wise resolution. In the second simulation, a pin-by-pin fuel-centered model is used in CTF for the central assembly, and a pin power reconstruction method is applied in DYN3D. The analysis shows the influence of the different models on global parameters, such as the power and the average fuel temperature, but also on local parameters such as the maximum fuel temperature.

System-on-glass를 위해 poly-Si TFT로 면적이 작으면서도 리플전압을 최소화한 DC-DC 전압 변환회로를 개발하였다. 전압 변환회로는 전하 펌핑 회로, 문턱전압 변화를 보상한 비교기, 오실레이터, 버퍼, 다중 위상 클럭을 만들기 위한 지연 회로로 구성된다. 제안한 다중 위상 클럭킹을 적용함으로써 클럭 주파수 또는 필터링 캐패시터의 증가 없이도 낮은 출력 리플전압을 얻음으로써 DC-DC 변환기의 면적을 최소화 하였다. 제안한 DC-DC 변환회로를 제작하여 측정한 결과 $R_{out}=100k\Omega,\;C_{out}=100pF$, 그리고 $f_{clk}=1MHz$에서 Dickson 구조와 기존의 cross-coupled 구조에서의 리플전압은 각각 590mv와 215mv인 반면 4-위상 클럭킹을 적용한 구조에서는 123mV이다. 그리고 50mV의 리플전압을 가지기 위해 필요한 필터링 캐패시터의 크기는 $I_{out}=100uA$와 $f_{clk}=1MHz$에서 Dickson 구조와 기존의 cross-coupled 구조에서는 각각 1029pF와 575pF인 반면 4-위상과 6-위상 클럭킹을 적용한 구조에서는 단지 290pF와 157pF만이 각각 요구된다. 구조별 효율로는 Dickson 구조의 전하 펌프에서는 $59\%$, 기존의 cross-coupled 구조와 본 논문에서 제안한 4-위상을 적용한 cross-coupled 구조의 전하 펌프에서는 $65.7\%$와 $65.3\%$의 효율을 각각 가진다.

In this paper, a multi-agent control system for DC-coupled photovoltaic (PV), fuel cell (FC), ultracapacitor(UC) and battery hybrid power system is studied for commercial buildings & apartment buildings microgrid. In this proposed system, the PV system provides electric energy to the electrolyzer to produce hydrogen for future use and transfer to the load side, if possible. Whenever the PV system cannot completely meet load demands, the FC system provides power to meet the remaining load. A multi-agent system based-power management and control algorithm is proposed for the hybrid power system by taking into account the characteristics of each power source. The main works of this paper are hybridization of alternate energy sources with FC systems using long and short storage strategies to build the multi-agent control system with pragmatic design, and a dynamic model proposed for a PV/FC/UC/battery bank hybrid power generation system. A dynamic simulation model for the hybrid power system has been developed using Matlab/Simulink, SimPowerSystems and Stateflow. Simulation results are also presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed multi-agent control and management system for building microgrid.

This paper presents a design method for the structural-acoustic coupled radiator that can emit sound in the desired direction. A coupled system that has a finite space and a semi-infinite space separated by two flexible walls and an opening is considered. An objective function is selected to maximize radiation power on a main axis and minimize a side lobe level. To get initial values, prediction of a pressure distribution on field points and radiation pattern of the structural-acoustic coupling system is shown at a coupled-resonant frequency. Three different optimization methods are adapted to design the coupled radiator. Pressure and intensity distribution of the designed radiator is presented.

Steam flooding is widely used in heavy oil reservoir with coupling effects among the formation temperature change, fluid flow and solid deformation. The effective stress, porosity and permeability in this process can be affected by the multi-physical coupling of thermal, hydraulic and mechanical processes (THM), resulting in a complex interaction of geomechanical effects and multiphase flow in the porous media. Quantification of the state of deformation and stress in the reservoir is therefore essential for the correct prediction of reservoir efficiency and productivity. This paper presents a coupled fluid flow, thermal and geomechanical model employing a program (MATLAB interface code), which was developed to couple conventional reservoir (ECLIPSE) and geomechanical (ABAQUS) simulators for coupled THM processes in multiphase reservoir modeling. In each simulation cycle, time dependent reservoir pressure and temperature fields obtained from three dimensional compositional reservoir models were transferred into finite element reservoir geomechanical models in ABAQUS as multi-phase flow in deforming reservoirs cannot be performed within ABAQUS and new porosity and permeability are obtained using volumetric strains for the next analysis step. Finally, the proposed approach is illustrated on a complex coupled problem related to steam flooding in an oil reservoir. The reservoir coupled study showed that permeability and porosity increase during the injection scenario and increasing rate around injection wells exceed those of other similar comparable cases. Also, during injection, the uplift occurred very fast just above the injection wells resulting in plastic deformation.

두 개의 DFB 영역과 위상조정 영역으로 구성된 다중 영역 복소 결합 DFB 레이저에서 방출되는 두 모드의 비팅에 의해서 발생하는 Self-Pulsation(SP) 동작 특성을 전산 모의 하였다. SP 주파수는 두 DFB 영역에서 발진하는 모드의 파장 차이에 의해 결정되며, 각각의 DFB 영역의 발진 모드의 파장은 회절격자 주기의 변화에 의해 달라진다. 두 DFB 영역의 회절격자의 주기 차이를 변화시킴으로써 다중 영역 DFB 레이저에서 밭생하는 SP 주파수를 매우 낮은 주파수에서 THz 영역까지 변화시킬 수 있었다. 또한 발진 모드가 다른 DFB 영역의 금지대역에 놓이지 않는 경우 발진되는 모드는 다른 DFB 영역으로 큰 반사 없이 진행하여 두 모드들 사이의 상호작용이 크게 발생하여 index-coupled 회절격자를 가지는 다중 영역 DFB 레이저와는 달리 변조 지수가 매우 큰 출력을 얻을 수 있었다.
