This paper proposes a regeneration inverter system, which can regenerate the excessive power form do bus line to ac source for traction system. The proposed regeneration inverter system for dc traction can reduce harmonics which are included to ac current source. The regeneration inverter is operated as two modes. In the regeneration inverter mode, it can recycle regenerative energy caused by decelerating tractions and in the active power filter mode, it can compensate harmonic distortion produced by the rectifier substation. In this paper, the regeneration inverter uses PWM DC/AC inverter algorithm and the active power filter uses p-q theory. From the informative simulation and experimental results, which are performed wiith a prototype rated 3.7[kw], it can expected that the proposed system can be effectively applied in the real traction system rated 100[kw].

when electric traction system used DC 1500V runs on decline of rail road track and slows down, Dc voltage goes beyond regular voltage. In this case extra power is forcibly wasted by resister because rectifier of substation and electric train including power converter and so on are out of order. This paper described a DC electric railway system, which can generate the excessive DC power form DC bus line to AC source in substation for traction system. The proposed regeneration inverter system for DC traction can be used as both an inverter and an active power filter(APF). As a regeneration inverter mode, it can recycle regenerative energy caused by decelerating tractions and as an active power filter mode, it can compensate for harmonic distortion produced by the rectifier substation. In addition, electric traction system products harmonic current and voltage distortion and reactive power because power converter is used so regeneration inverter normally runs such as active power filter(APF) for improving power quality. From the viewpoint of both power capacity and switching losses, the system is designed on the basis of three phase PWM inverters and composed of parallel inverters, output transformers, and an LCL filter.

Recently, the construction industry is getting more complex and sophisticated having the characteristics of a mega project. Mega project pursues a value that can't be gained with an approach of seeing a project as just a simple sum of different parts but a mutual combination. However, the current manuals can't fulfill the needs for supporting, therefore, need a tool to support the decision making and an IETM is expected to take this role. Despite the a lot of expected advantages of IETM, it is still difficult to apply because of the frequent changes of information of detailed process and its complexity. In this research, as part of developing an IETM, we aim to propose a system frame which is based on the analysis of processes of a project. It is basic part of IETM to give information to users and IETM consists of normal mode that offers general information about the urban regeneration project and user-specified mode that gives classified and reorganized information to user. For supporting these functions, IETM should be stored in a form that can classify the information about urban regeneration project and be tagged with meaningful tags. Moreover IETM developers have to consider the interoperability of IETM because it ultimately should be coordinated with overall Project Management System like an iPMIS. We used XML for solution of interoperability because it stores information as just text-file that doesn't need a special form.

In this thesis, improved full wave mode ZVT(Zero-Voltage-Transition) PMW DC-DC Converters are presented to maximize the regeneration ratio of resonant energy by only putting an additional diode In series with the auxiliary switch. The operation of the auxiliary switch in a half wave mode makes it possible soft switching operation of all switches including the auxiliary switch whereas it is turned off with hard switching in conventional converter. The increase of the regeneration ratio to resonant energy results in low commutation losses and minimum voltage and current stresses. The operation principles of the improved ZVT PWM DC-DC Converters are theoretically analyzed using the boost converter topology as an example. Both theoretical analysis and experimental results verify the validity of the PWM boost converter topology with the improved full wave mode ZVT PWM converters.

The goals of this research are to understand the regeneration characteristics in diesel particulate filter(DPF) using the cerium additive and throttling. The effects of throttling duration and spring tension of throttling valve were studied. Measurements were made on a 6 cylinder direct injection diesel engine and included pressure drop, filter inlet temperature, oxygen concentrations, and torque. The major conclusions of this work include; (i) the pressure drop is increased with increase of the engine load and the engine speed; (ii) the inlet temperature of the filter is reached $350^{\circ}C$ with certain engine operating condition which leads to sufficient temperature to regenerate with additive; and (iii) oxygen concentrations in the filter and engine torque during throttling operation are decreased by 2 percent and 36 percent, respectively, which are not critical about regeneration and vehicle operation.

With the world-wide demand on the emission minimization, the needs on the diesel aftertreatment devices with high efficiency are also increasing. In order to effectively develop or design a high-performance diesel particulate filter, a clear understanding on the deposition and regeneration mechanism is required. In the present study, a theory on the lumped parameter model for wall-flow type diesel particulate filters is described focusing on the deposition efficiency, pressure drop inside the filter. The fourth order explicit Runge-Kutta method is utilized for the mass flow rate computation. Engine operation modes with controlled and uncontrolled regeneration options are selected. The computational lumped parameter model is validated by comparing the computed results with the measured data.

The hybrid vehicle has a good fuel economy with a electric type braking energy regeneration system. This paper introduced a novel pneumatic type braking energy regeneration system. The novel system use a scroll mechanism which have both compression function and expansion function. While vehicle is decelerating, the scroll machinery, being operated as a scroll compressor, compress a atmospheric air to save the vehicle's kinetic energy and reuse a compressed air which is reserved in a air tank while vehicle is accelerating. In order to analyze fuel improvements by applying braking energy regeneration system to a vehicle, we simulated the rate of braking energy regeneration through CVS-75 mode driving patterns.

Switched reluctance machine has much attention because of high efficiency, high power and DC series torque characteristics with a traction drive. But the motor has to have a regenerative mode when it is adopted in an electric vehicle. A current divergence during the regeneration makes difficulties in the control of SRM. This paper proposes a reference current limitation strategy for a stable regeneration based on simulations and experimental tests. The motor is operated with conventional current limit and switching angle control method in motoring mode. Simulations and experiments are executed to verify proposed method.
