A sample size with sufficient statistical power is critical to the success of genetic association studies to detect causal genes of human complex diseases. Genome-wide association studies require much larger sample sizes to achieve an adequate statistical power. We estimated the statistical power with increasing numbers of markers analyzed and compared the sample sizes that were required in case-control studies and case-parent studies. We computed the effective sample size and statistical power using Genetic Power Calculator. An analysis using a larger number of markers requires a larger sample size. Testing a single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker requires 248 cases, while testing 500,000 SNPs and 1 million markers requires 1,206 cases and 1,255 cases, respectively, under the assumption of an odds ratio of 2, 5% disease prevalence, 5% minor allele frequency, complete linkage disequilibrium (LD), 1:1 case/control ratio, and a 5% error rate in an allelic test. Under a dominant model, a smaller sample size is required to achieve 80% power than other genetic models. We found that a much lower sample size was required with a strong effect size, common SNP, and increased LD. In addition, studying a common disease in a case-control study of a 1:4 case-control ratio is one way to achieve higher statistical power. We also found that case-parent studies require more samples than case-control studies. Although we have not covered all plausible cases in study design, the estimates of sample size and statistical power computed under various assumptions in this study may be useful to determine the sample size in designing a population-based genetic association study.

측정 명령어에 따른 정확도와 소요시간은 효율적인 Ka 밴드용 자동 시험 장비(ATE)를 구축하는데 중요한 요소이다. 이에 따라 본 논문에서는 RF 대표 계측기 Power Meter의 측정 명령어에 대해 연구하였다. 30 G ~ 31 GHz에서 Power Meter의 측정 명령어 FETCH와 MEASURE의 각 측정 레벨에 따른 정확도와 소요시간을 비교하였으며, -70 ~ +20 dBm 영역을 2가지 Power Sensor로 측정하였다. 측정 결과 신속하게 데이터를 불러오는 FETCH 명령어는 잡음 레벨보다 높은 선형 구간에서 비교적 정확한 데이터를 얻을 수 있었다. 가장 정확한 데이터를 얻을 수 있는 MEASURE 명령어는 FETCH 대비 시간이 많이 소요 되었으며, 최대 13.2초가 소요 되었다. 이를 통해 30 G ~ 31 GHz에서 Power Meter 측정 명령어의 정확도와 측정 소요시간을 확인할 수 있었고, 해당 연구 결과는 효율적인 Ka 밴드용 ATE를 구축하는데 기준을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

왕복 요동 교반조의 액체 표면에서의 산소 전달 속도에 대해 연구하였다. 왕복 요동 교반조의 소요 동력은 선회요동 교반조와는 달리 요동 주파수에 비례하지 않았으며, 교반조 내의 유동양상이 선회요동의 선회류와는 다른 좌우 물결류인 관계로 어떤 진동수에서 갑자기 액면이 크게 흔들리며 움직이는 양상을 보이며. 3 s-1 이상의 요동 주파수부터는 소요 동력이 선회요동 교반조보다 적어지는 등 요동 주파수가 소요 동력에 미치는 영향은 매우 복잡하였지만, 생성되는 회전류의 범위에서의 왕복 요동 교반조 소요 동력은 회전 요동 교반조에 대해 보고된 식으로 상관시킬 수 있었다. 왕복요동 교반조에서의 kLa (물질이동 용량계수) 역시 교반 소요 동력이 단순한 형태로 소비되지 않았기 때문에 주파수의 증가에 따라 선형으로 증가하는 선회요동 교반조의 kLa와는 달리 복잡한 형태로 증가하였다. 왕복요동 교반의 kLa가 선회요동 교반의 kLa 보다 컸으며, kLa 값이 커질수록 그 차이도 급격히 커졌다. 결과적으로 왕복 요동에서의 산소 전달 속도는 회전 요동보다 컸으며, 단위 부피당 소요 동력과 상관시킬 수 있었다.

This paper presents a new type of fuzzy logic-based power control strategy for fuel cell hybrid electric vehicles designed to improve their fuel economy while maintaining the battery's state of charge. Since fuel cell systems have inherent limitations, such as a slow response time and low fuel efficiency, especially in the low power region, a battery system is typically used to assist them. To maximize the advantages of this hybrid type of configuration, a power distribution control strategy is required for the two power sources: the fuel cell system and the battery system. The required fuel cell power is procured using fuzzy rules based on the vehicle driving status and the battery status. In order to show the validity and effectiveness of the proposed power control strategy, simulations are performed using a mid-size vehicle for three types of standard drive cycle. First, the fuzzy logic-based power control strategy is shown to improves the fuel economy compared with the static power control strategy. Second, the robustness of the proposed power control strategy is verified against several variations in system parameters.

Since main portion of the required electric power in Jeju Island is provided from the mainland through two HVDC lines, Jeju HVDC has a most significant impact on Jeju power system. Average wind speed of Jeju Island is the highest among several candidates in South Korea. So, Jeju Island has been a suitable site for the construction of wind farms where several wind farms are now operating and several others to be sited. Since the large-scale wind generation could have adverse impacts on the stable operation of Jeju power system, wind power is also important for the stability of Jeju power system. Therefore, accurate modeling of Jeju HVDC and wind farms is required for stability analysis of Jeju power system. In this paper, PSS/E-based dynamic modeling of Jeju HVDC and DFIG wind farms is proposed. Model-writing technique of PSS/E is used to develop USRAUX model and USRMDL model for controlling the frequency of HVDC and imposing an operation limit of wind power, respectively. Dynamic characteristics of Jeju HVDC and DFIG wind farms are analyzed through the dynamic simulations. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the developed models for Jeju power system.

More precise operation and control is required to ensure the stability and security of modern large power systems that is a complicated and widely dispersed structure. To ensure the precise operation and control of modern power system, most of all, precise monitoring and measurement of the various state values of power system is required. This paper discusses phasor measurement unit using synchronization signals from the GPS satellite system- Synchronized Phasor Measurement Unit. Considering the power system operation state, the transmitting data format over modems is defined. To provide all available information, PMU process the measurements to generate three phase symmetrical component. This paper proposes the transmitted data format and implements the PMU model using EMTP/Models. The validity of proposed model is confirmed through several contingency on the simple power system.

As for the insufficient nature of the fossil fuel resources, the renewable energies as alternative fuels are imperative and highly heeded. To deliver the required electric power to the industrial and domestic consumers from DC renewable energy sources like fuel cell (FC), the power converter operates as an adjustable interface device. This paper suggests a new boost structure to provide the required voltage with wide range gain for FC power source. The proposed structure based on the boost converter and the quazi network, the so-called SBQN, can effectively enhance the FC functionality against its high operational sensitivity to experience low current ripple and also propagate voltage and current with low stress across its semiconductors. Furthermore, the switching power losses have been decreased to make this structure more durable. A full operational analysis of the proposed SBQN and its advantages over the conventional and famous structures has been compared and explained. Furthermore, a prototype of the single-phase converter has been constructed and tested in the laboratory.

Total 215 magnet power supplies are under operation in Pohang Light Source(PLS). Current, voltage and peak power handling capabilities of DC power supply are in the range of 21 to 643V, 45 to 850A and 0.94 to 531KW, respectively. The DC power supplies can be categoriezed as uni-polar and bipolar power. Typical required stability and ripple of uni-polar power supplies are ${\pm}0.005%$ and ${\pm}0.05%$, respectively. The bipolar power supplies should be maintained within ${\pm}0.05%$ stability and ${\pm}0.5%$ ripple. Precise measurement results show that all power supplies meet or exceed the required specifications. The long term operation reliability to be sufficient for a stable operation of the Pohang Light Source.
