With the advancement of intelligent vehicles and unmanned systems, there is a growing interest in underwater surveys using autonomous marine vehicles (AMVs). This study presents an automated planning strategy for a long-term survey mission using a fleet of AMVs consisting of autonomous surface vehicles and autonomous underwater vehicles. Due to the complex nature of the mission, the actions of the vehicle must be of high-level abstraction, which means that the actions indicate not only motion of the vehicle but also symbols and semantics, such as those corresponding to deploy, charge, and survey. For automated planning, the planning domain definition language (PDDL) was employed to construct a mission planner for realizing a powerful and flexible planning system. Despite being able to handle abstract actions, such high-level planners have difficulty in efficiently optimizing numerical objectives such as obtaining the shortest route given multiple destinations. To alleviate this issue, a widely known technique in operations research was additionally employed, which limited the solution space so that the high-level planner could devise efficient plans. For a comprehensive evaluation of the proposed method, various PDDL-based planners with different parameter settings were implemented, and their performances were compared through simulation. The simulation result shows that the proposed method outperformed the baseline solutions by yielding plans that completed the missions more quickly, thereby demonstrating the efficacy of the proposed methodology.

The turbulent flow behavior of air supply and exhaustion in the Shin-gum-ho subway station is analyzed for ordinary and emergency state. The depth of Shin-gum-ho station is 43.6m which consists of the island-type platform(8th floor in underground) and a two-story lobby (first & second floor in underground). An emergency stairway connects between the platform and the lobby. Ventilation operation mode for ordinary state is set up as a combination of air supply and exhaustion in the lobby and platform, while for emergency state it is set up as a full air supply in the lobby and a full exhaustion in the platform. The entire station is covered for simulation. The ventilation diffusers are modeled as 95 square shapes of $0.6m{\times}0.6m$ in the lobby and as 222 square shapes of $0.6m{\times}0.6m$ and 4 rectangular shapes of $1.2m{\times}0.8m$ in the platform. The total of 7.5million grids are generated and whole domain is divided to 22 blocks for MPI efficiency of calculation. Large eddy simulation(LES) is applied to solve the momentum equation and Smagorinsky model($C_s$=0.2) is used as SGS(subgrid scale) model. The time-averaged velocity fields are compared to experimental data and show a good agreement with it.

멀티캐스트를 이용하는 실시간 응용에서는 끊임없이 서비스를 제공하는 것이 중요하다. IP 멀티캐스트와 응용계층 멀티캐스트(ALM)를 이용하는 하이브리드 멀티캐스트에서는 혼잡 등 네트워크 상황에 적응하기 위하여 전송경로의 재구성이 발생한다. 이로 인하여 종단 간 지연시간이 증가하고 실시간 서비스의 품질이 저하되는 문제가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 이런 문제를 다계층 전송경로를 구성하여 해결하고자 한다. 제안방법에서는 하이브리드 멀티캐스트 구성을 위해서 제어서버와 각 멀티캐스트 도메인(MD)에 존재하는 응용계층 오버레이 호스트(Application Layer Overlay Host)를 둔다. 제어서버는 MD에 가입한 ALOH들로 부터 제어정보를 받아 홉 수를 기반으로 그룹을 생성하고, 모든 ALOH들에게 전송한다. 각 MD의 ALOH는 타 MD의 ALOH에게 오버레이로 패킷을 전송하는 역할과 다계층 전송경로를 구성하는 역할을 수행한다. 다계층 전송경로는 제어서버로 부터 전송받은 제어정보와 이웃한 ALOH 간 지연시간을 이용하여 우선순위별로 구성된다. 이렇게 완성된 다계층 전송경로 중 혼잡이 발생하거나 ALOH의 부재 시에는 가장 우선순위가 높은 전송경로를 선택하여 종단 간 지연시간을 줄이도록 한다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 제안방법이 혼잡상태에서 종단 간 지연시간을 평균 289ms 이하로 줄일 수 있었음을 보여준다.

직교 주파수분할 다중(OFDM)시스템과 직접확산 코드분할다중접속(DS/CDMA)시스템이 결합된 다중반송파(MC) DS/CDMA 시스템은 대역폭 효율, 고 전송률과 페이딩에 강한 특성으로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 시간영역과 주파수영역에서 확산을 수행하는 다중전송률 MC-DS/CDMA 시스템에서 복잡성이 감소된 다중사용자 검출기를 살펴본다. 여기서 시간영역과 주파수영역의 확산부호로는 2차원 직교 가변확산부호(OVSF)로부터 만들어진 1차원 OVSF 코드를 사용한다. 제안된 시스템에서는 다중사용자간섭(MUI)을 감소시키기 위해 코드그룹 간섭제거(CGIC) 수신기를 사용하는데, 이 CGIC 수신기는 1차원 OVSF 코드들의 상관특성을 이용하여 코드 그룹이라는 개념을 사용하여 다른 사용자들의 정보 없이도 사용자 선호를 검출할 수 있는 수신기이다. CGIC를 갖는 다중사용자 검출기가 시간 및 주파수영역에 따로 또는 같이 적용될 것이다. AWGN 채널 환경 하에서 시스템의 성능을 분석하며, 단일(다중) 전송률, 다중사용자를 갖는 시간/주파수 영역에서 확산된 MC-DS/CDMA과 비교할 것이다. 이러한 결과로서 기존의 정합검출기에 비해 제안된 시스템의 성능이 향상됨을 알 수 있다.

The load frequency control(LFC) of power system is one of important subjects in view of system operation and control. That is, even though the rapid load disturbances are applied to the given power system, the stable and reliable power should be supplied to the users, converging unconditionally and rapidly the frequency deviations and the tie-line power flow ones of each area into allowable boundary limits. Nonetheless of such needs, if the internal parameter perturbation and the sudden load variation are given, the unstable phenomena of power systems can be often brought out because of the large frequency deviation and the unsuppressible power line one. So, an optimal modulation controller for UC of multi-area power system is designed by a recursive algorithm that determines the state weighting matrix Q of a linear quadratic performance criterion. The optimal modulation controller is based on optimal control and can obtain the exact dynamic response of the UC of multi-area power system in the time domain. The performances of the resultant optimal modulation control, that is, the steady-state deviations of frequency and tie-line power flow and the related dynamics, were investigated and analyzed in detail by being applied to the UC of multi-area power system in the perturbations of predetermined internal parameters. Through the simulation results tried variously in this paper for disturbance of stepwise load changes, the superiorities of the proposed optimal modulation controller in robustness and stability were proved.

An optimal design of a multi-layered plate structure to endure high-velocity impact has been suggested by using size optimization after numerical simulations. The NET2D, a Lagrangian explicit time-integration finite element code for analyzing high-velocity impact, was used to find the parameters for the optimization. Three different materials such as mild steel, aluminum for a multi-layered plate structure and die steel for the pellet, were assumed. In order to consider the effects of strain rate hardening, strain hardening and thermal softening, Johnson-Cook model and Phenomenological Material Model were used as constitutive models for the simulation. It was carried out with several different gaps and thickness of layers to figure out the trend in terms of those parameters' changes under the constraint, which is against complete penetration. Also, the measuring domain has been shrunk with several elements to reduce the analyzing time. The response surface method based on the design of experiments was used as optimization algorithms. The optimized thickness of each layer in which perforation does not occur has been obtained at a constant velocity and a designated total thickness. The result is quite acceptable satisfying both the minimized deformation energy and the weight criteria. Furthermore, a conceptual idea for topology optimization was suggested for the future work.

A new analytical derivation of the elastodynamic point load solutions for an isotropic multi-layered half-space is presented by means of the precise integration method (PIM) and the approach of dual vector. The time-harmonic external load is prescribed either on the external boundary or in the interior of the solid medium. Starting with the axisymmetric governing motion equations in a cylindrical coordinate system, a second order ordinary differential matrix equation can be gained by making use of the Hankel integral transform. Employing the technique of dual vector, the second order ordinary differential matrix equation can be simplified into a first-order one. The approach of PIM is implemented to obtain the solutions of the ordinary differential matrix equation in the Hankel integral transform domain. The PIM is a highly accurate algorithm to solve sets of first-order ordinary differential equations and any desired accuracy of the dynamic point load solutions can be achieved. The numerical simulation is based on algebraic matrix operation. As a result, the computational effort is reduced to a great extent and the computation is unconditionally stable. Selected numerical trials are given to validate the accuracy and applicability of the proposed approach. More examples are discussed to portray the dependence of the load-displacement response on the isotropic parameters of the multi-layered media, the depth of external load and the frequency of excitation.

본 논문에서는 3GPP LTE (3rd Generation Partnership Project Long Term Evolution) MIMO-OFDMA(multiple-input multiple-output-orthogonal frequency division multiple access) 시스템의 하향 링크 수신기를 위한 asynchronous ICI (Inter-Cell Interference) 완화 기법을 제안한다. Multi-cell 환경을 고려한 celluar OFDMA 시스템에서는 기본적으로 frequency reuse factor가 1로 설정되기 때문에 셀 경계에 위치한 UE (User Equipment)의 경우 ICI 영향을 받게 되며, 특히 각기 다른 셀 반경 및 nodeB 간의 거리 차이 등 현실적인 celluar 환경을 고려 할 경우에는 UE 간 타이밍 오류가 가중되어 수신 신호의 주파수 영역의 직교성이 파괴될 가능성이 있다. 따라서 이러한 인접 셀 간섭을 제거 및 완화하기 위하여 수신 OFDM 심볼에 대한 SCM (Spatial Covariance Matrix) 추정이 필요하다. 일반적으로 SCM 추정은 training symbol을 이용함을 가정하지만, 긴 시간 동안 간섭의 통계적 특성을 측정하는 것은 어려울 뿐만 아니라 training symbol이 고려되지 않는 LTE와 같은 MIMO-OFDMA 시스템에는 적합하지 않다. 또한 추정의 정확성을 높이기 위하여 noise reduction 방식이 적용된 추정 기법이 제시되고 있으나, 기존 time-domain low-pass type weighting 방식은 spectral leakage에 의한 추정 에러를 유발하는 단점이 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 noise reduction 효과를 얻으면서 spectral leakage에 의한 SCM 추정 오류를 최소화할 수 있으며, 주파수 영역에의 moving average filter로 구현 가능한 time-domain sinc-type weighting 방식의 SCM 추정 기법을 제안하였으며, 다양한 환경에서의 컴퓨터 모의 실험을 통하여 제안된 방식이 기존의 방식보다 약 3dB 의 SIR (Signal to Interference Ratio) 이득을 보임을 입증하였다.

This paper deals with numerical analyses in the context of estimations of hydrodynamic motions and dynamic loads for a floating type offshore platform using some exclusive simulation code such as code for the simulation of a floating type of offshore crane based on multi-body dynamics, along with the commercial code AQWA. Verifications of numerical models are carried out by comparing the RAO results from the simulation code. In the verification analyses, hydrodynamic motions are examined in the frequency domain for the floating type offshore platform according to the mooring lines. Both the hydrodynamic motions and dynamic loads are estimated for floating type offshore platforms equipped with the catenary type and taut mooring lines. A review and comparison are carried out for the numerically estimated results. The structural safety of the connection parts in an offshore structure such as a floating type offshore platform is one of the most important design criteria in view of fatigue life. The dynamic loads in the connecting area between a floating type offshore platform and its mooring lines are estimated in detail according to variations in the mechanical properties of the mooring lines. The dynamic tension load on the mooring lines is also estimated.

Recently, cultural heritages in South Korea gain many interests of restoration and preservation from the government since many of that have been severely damaged during earthquakes. Many previous studies in both terms of experimental and analytical approaches have been done to examine structural behavior and decide appropriate methods of preservation. Being motivated by such researches, this research aims to investigate a religious stone pagoda dated back to the Goryeo Dynasty in Korea. The structure consists of a granite stone foundation and baked bricks, which resembles the shape of traditional pagodas. In order to examine the structural behavior of the pagoda, an analytical model is implemented using ANSYS, a comprehensive engineering simulation platform. For the time history analysis of the pagoda, several earthquake excitations are chosen and input to simulation modeling. Seismic response of the tower such as time domain, natural frequency, modal shapes and peak acceleration measured at each layer are presented and discussed. In addition, the amplification ratio of the tower is calculated from the accelerations of each layer to determine tower stability in accordance with Korean seismic design guide. The determination and evaluation of status and response of the brick tower by simulation analysis play an important role in the preservation of history as well as valuable architectural heritages in South Korea.
