Citrus fruit (Citrus unshiu Marc) were stored in the facillity controlled with a microprocessor-based storage controller, and the respiration rate and weight loss of fruits were measured with the infrared gas analyzer and the strain gauge load cell. The storage conditions and measuring intervals were set by the keyboard of personal computer. The interfacing cicuitry between the computer and Z-80 microprocerssor was built with peripheral Interfacing It chips 6821 and 8255. The data measured were saved to a data file for recording and further analysis. When the fresh and bruised fruits were subjected to the storage condition for 4 days at 20 C, the respiration rate of the fresh one showed a stable value of 3-5ml $CO_2/kg$ h throughout the storage period while the bruised one exihibited an abruptly increased rate after 50 hours. And the weight loss recorded about 5% during the storage.

As a new control strategy, the Nonlinear PID (NLPID) controller has been introduced successfully in power systems. The controller is free of planting model groundwork during the design procedure and is therefore able to be achieved quite simply. In this paper, a nonlinear PID controller used for a superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) unit connected to a power system is proposed. The purpose of designing such a controller is to improve the stability of the power system in a relatively wide operation range. The design procedure takes into account the active and reactive power cooperative control scheme as well as the simple structure so as to be more apt to practical utilization. Simulation is carried out to investigate the performance of the proposed controller in a high order nonlinear power system model under the. MATLAB environment. The results show satisfactory performance and good robustness of the controller. The feasibility of the controller is testified as well.

In this study, we propose an operations model to automate a home energy management system (HEMS) that utilizes an energy storage system (ESS) in consideration of consumer utility. Most previous studies focused on the system for the profits obtained from trading charged energy using large-scale ESS. By contrast, the present study focuses on constructing a home-level energy management system that considers consumer's utility over energy consumption. Depending on personal preference, some residential consumers may prefer consuming additional energy to earn increased profits through price arbitrage and vice versa. However, the current system could not yet reflect on this aspect. Thus, we develop an operations model for HEMS that could automatically control energy consumption while considering the level of consumer's preference and the economic benefits of using an ESS. The results of simulations using a dataset of the Korean market show that an operations policy of charging and discharging can be changed depending on consumer's utility. The impact of this policy is not ignorable. Moreover, the technical specifications of ESS, such as self-discharge rate and round-trip efficiency, can affect the operations policy and automation of HEMS.

LPG(Liquefied Petroluem Gas) Vehicles in metropolitan area being applied to improve air quality and have been proven effective for the reduction of air pollution. These gas stations are required to safe the storage tank because of possibility of causing huge loss of life and property. While storage tanks above ground have potential risk of explosion if fire breaks out and those under-ground are difficult to inspect due to poor accessibility neither above nor under-ground tank can serve us well. This study used the RPS-TRIZ (Rapidly Problem Solving-Teoriya Resheniya Izobretatelskikh Zadatch) technique and suggested the use of under-ground containment storage tank as a solution for safety issues and safety inspection.

In modern society, digital lifestyles are spreading to minimize contact with people and to receive contactless information. The spread trend has established an unmanned distribution system in which transactions through contactless technologies such as kiosks and chatbots are activated in face-to-face transactions with sellers and consumers. In order to streamline logistics supply worldwide, digital new deal based joint logistics hubs, unmanned courier storage platforms, and fresh logistics based last mile services have been developed into unmanned logistics systems, focusing on the intelligent logistics system automation process. Unmanned courier storage system installed in urban areas and home to daily logistics where volume is concentrated are provided with fresh logistics services through cold chain and receiving freights in contactless environments. Development is also underway to minimize safety accidents caused by courier services, such as managing various information based on the integrated control system. This paper defines the concept of integrated operation for the development of a platform for contactless unmanned courier storage device developed into next-generation logistics system. In addition, we intend to develop systems engineering-based output for deriving safety requirements and specifications by identifying risk sources that may occur in the operational scenario. Therefore, the goal is to establish a foundation for safety and reliability between interfaces of logistics systems to be installed in apartment and subway station environments that want to provide unmanned logistics services to various consumers.

This paper proposes a new dynamic hardware allocation and binding algorithm of a simultaneous allocation and binding for SOC design automation. The proposed algorithm works on scheduled input graph and simultaneously allocates binds functional units, interconnections and registers by considering interdependency between operations and storage elements in each control step, in order to share registers and interconnections connected to functional units, as much as possible. This paper shows the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm by comparing experiments to determine number of function unit in advance or by comparing separated executing allocation and binding of existing system.

The Alaska pollack longline operations, which consist of baiting, shooting, hauling and arrangement of hooks, are dependant on manual labour up to the present. The automation against this traditional way is necessary to eliminate the manual operations and to reduce crew. We have developed a prototype longline system suitable for Alaska pollack longline gear, which is composed of an automatic baiting machine, an automatic line hauler, a hook cleaner and storage rails. The automatic bailing machine driven by hydraulic power is precise baiting method controlled sequentially, and the automatic line hauler is to haul up the mainline by means of hydraulic power and at the same time to split every hook and to carry it onto storage rail automatically. A series functioning tests on shooting and hauling apparatus were carried out in the laboratory and at sea. The results obtained are as follows ; 1. As for the baiting machine, the exciting time of solenoid which operates a directional valve, bait feeding and cutting time, is shortened according to the increase of pressure, and also, after cutting the bait, the over-rotated angle of the blade increased in accordance with the increase of pressure. 2. The baiting efficiency is about $90\%$ when using sand lance (Hypoptychus dybowskii), and the most proper pressure of the hydraulic circuit in feeding and cutting the bait is between $13\;kgf/cm^2\;and\;20\;kgf/cm^2$. 3. The hook splitting rate of the automatic line hauler is about $95.5\%$ regardless of hauling speed and materials of snood. 4. The case of unseparating hook is appeared when the snood gets entangled or the hook is sticked in the mainline.
