  • Kyeonggi Provincial Government is considering double decker bus service to solve the problem of heavy rush hour traffic. However, the height-to-width ratio is more than 1.16 times larger than that of a general high-speed single decker bus, and the center of gravity is higher. This could cause driving stability problems, such as turnover and breakaway from the lane, especially under strong side-wind conditions at high speed. In this numerical study, the driving characteristics of a model double decker bus were reviewed under side-wind and superelevation conditions at high driving speed. The rolling, pitching, and yawing moment of the model bus were calculated with CFD numerical simulation, and the results were compared to the recovery angular moments of the model bus to evaluate the dynamic stability under given driving conditions. As the model vehicle moves on a straight level road, it is stable under any side-wind conditions. However, on a curved road under side-wind conditions, it could reach unstable conditions dynamically. There is a chance that the bus will turn over when it moves on a curved road with a radius of gyration less than 100 m under side-wind (15 m/s). However, there is a very small chance of breakaway from the lane under any driving conditions.

  • Recently, transportation big data generated in the transportation sector has been widely used in the transportation policies making and efficient system management. Bus passengers' mobility patterns are useful insight for transportation policy maker to optimize bus lines and time intervals in a city. We propose a new methodology to discover mobility patterns by using transportation card data. We first estimate the bus stations where the passengers get-off because the transportation card data don't have the get-off information in most cities. We then applies LDA (Latent Dirichlet Allocation), the most representative topic modeling technique, to discover mobility patterns of bus passengers in Cheong-Ju city. To understand discovered patterns, we construct a data warehouse and perform multi-dimensional analysis by bus-route, region, time-period, and the mobility patterns (get-on/get-off station). In the case of Cheong Ju, we discovered mobility pattern 1 from suburban area to Cheong-Ju terminal, mobility pattern 2 from residential area to commercial area, mobility pattern 3 from school areas to commercial area.

  • This paper presents the design of a fast auxiliary channel bus for DisplayPort 1.2 interface. The fast auxiliary channel supports Manchester transactions at 1Mbps and fast auxiliary transactions at 780Mbps. The Manchester transaction is used for managing the main link and auxiliary channel and the fast auxiliary transaction is for data transfer via the auxiliary channel. Simplified serial bus architecture is proposed to be implemented in fast auxiliary channel. The fast auxiliary channel transmitter and receiver are implemented with 7,648 LUTs and 6,020 slice register synthesized in Xilinx Vertex4 FPGA and can be operated at 72MHz to support 720Mbps.

  • Low sustained voltage $(V_s)$ and high luminous efficiency (lumen/Watts) are required for the enhanced performance of an AC PDP. Both are not realized in the same condition, however, because luminous efficiency decreases when the sustained voltage is lowered in most cases. In this study, the three design factors in the front panel of a PDP, i.e., the thickness and position of the bus electrode and the thickness of the dielectric layer, were chosen to investigate how they affect the sustained voltage and the luminous efficiency, and to find a way to optimize them. Two values were given to each of the three design factors, and experiments were done via full factorial design, i.e., with a total of eight conditions, using a 3-in.diagonal test panel. The changes in the sustained voltage and the luminous characteristics were explained in connection with the discharge characteristics of the PDP cells.

  • Networked embedded systems using the smart device and fieldbus technologies are now found in many industrial fields including process automation and automobiles. However the discrepancy between a node's view of current time and the rest of the system can cause many difficulties in the design and implementation of a networked system. To provide a networked system with a global reference time, the problem of clock synchronization has been intensively studied over the decades. However, many of the existing solutions, which are mainly developed for large scale distributed computer systems, cannot be directly applied to embedded systems. This paper presents a fault-tolerant clock synchronization technique that can be used for a low-cost embedded system using a CAN bus. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated with a set of microcontrollers and DC motor-based actuators.

  • Recently, the risk of a safety accident for all children under seven years of age or kindergarten is on the rise. Therefore, we designed the system to inform the receiver of the safety situations generated when entering or exiting the school bus using the body's pressure, GPS, and IR through IoT. In addtion, The system is also designed so that the teacher can check safety status through the Bluetooth application when an infant enters or leaves the vehicle.

  • This paper presents a screening technique for greatly reducing the computation involved in determining the optimal location and types of Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices in a large power system. The first-order sensitivities of the generation cost for various FACTS devices are derived. This technique requires solving only one optimal power flow (OPF) to obtain sensitivities with respect to FACTS device control variables for every transmission line To implement a sensitivity-based screening technique, we used a new UPFC model, which consists of an ideal transformer with a complex turns ratio and a variable shunt admittance. A S-bus system based on the IEEE 14-bus system was used to illustrate the technique.

  • This paper presents an improved group of energy functions reflecting generator damping effects for multi-machine power systems by using Center of Inertia (COI) formulation as an extension of the previous work. Since rotor angles at the Stable Equilibrium Point (SEP) of post-fault systems are generally calculated in COI, system transient energy can be found without assumption of infinite or slack bus, which is a crucial drawback of the absolute rotor angle frame approach. The developed energy functions have a structure preserving property with which it is very flexible to incorporate various models of power system components, especially various load and generator models. The proposed damping-reflected energy functions are applied to the Potential Energy Boundary Surface (PEBS) method, one of the direct methods. Numerical simulation of WSCC 9-bus shows that conservativeness of the PEBS method can be considerably reduced.

  • This paper shows an effective partitioning of static global row/column buses for tightly coupled 2D mesh-connected small processor arrays ("mesh", for short). With additional O(n/m (n/m + log m)) time slowdown, it enables the mesh of size $m{\times}m$ with static row/column buses to simulate the mesh of the larger size $n{\times}n$ with reconfigurable row/column buses ($m{\leq}n$). This means that if a problem can be solved in O(T) time by the mesh of size $n{\times}n$ with reconfigurable buses, then the same problem can be solved in O(Tn/m (n/m + log m)) time on the mesh of a smaller size $m{\times}m$ without a reconfigurable function. This time-cost is optimal when the relation $n{\geq}m$ log m holds (e.g., m = $n^{1-\varepsilon}$ for $\varepsilon$ > 0).
