This paper proposes an efficient method of On-Line Economic Load Dispatch(ELD) using Evolutionary Programming(EP) technique at Kwangyang steel works. The economic operation of steel works is done by experienced engineer. So far, there is no formulation and algorithm of economic operation of steel works. In this paper, we propose the formulation and On-Line algorithm of economic operation of steel works. The EP technique is the kind of Evolutionary Computation(EC) which has become a candidate for many optimization applications due to its flexibility and efficiency. Based on the EP technique, the proposed algorithm is capable of not only solving the economic problem, but also obtaining the global optimal solutions within reasonable execution time. To validate our proposed approach, the algorithm is demonstrated on many sample systems and compared to actual values of steel works.

In the surface grinding operations, the grinding fluid cannot be supplied sufficiently in the cutting zone. Temperature generated in the cutting zone increases rapidly and causes thermal damage such as burning on the surface of a workpiece. To reduce thermal damage, the intermittent grinding wheels, which have an excellent cooling effect, have been applied. This paper describes machining characteristics by using intermittent grinding wheels. The grinding force of the intermittent wheels has been simulated by the SIMULAB, which is a program for simulating dynamic systems. Using the intermittent grinding wheels, the characteristics of grinding force, temperature, surface roughness, and geometric error have been evaluated experimently.

For the reuse of the existing 3D block model of a ship, we analyze the hull modeling process using AVEVA Marine which is a representative CAD (Computer-Aided Design) system for the shipbuilding. In the AVEVA Marine environment where the design engineer makes 3D model on the 2D view that is so-called 2.5D, it cannot be possible to copy to reuse the block model just simply copying the 3D feature model itself like in the general mechanical CAD system or Smart Marine 3D which are on the basis of the 3D model representation. In this paper, we analyze the scheme file where the 3D model is defined in AVEVA Marine so that we develop the program for the block copy and the translation using this scheme file. It is significant that this program can be immediately available as a real-world application on the AVEVA Marine environment.

Prestressed Concrete Cylinder Pipe(PCCP) is used in water transmission pipeline of the Great Man-made River Project(GMR Project). In domestic area, PCCP is used for water cooling systems of Uljin and Youngkwang nuclear power plants. In abroad, especially in the United States and Canada PCCP supplies virtually every metropolitan area with raw and treated water. Compared with other pipe types, PCCP manufacturing cost is dear. But total cost can be considered as economical due to low installation and maintenance cost. Previously, the designs of PCCP were generally determined from one of two appendices in American Water Works Association(AWWA)standard C301 which provided two design methods-cubic parabola design method and stress analysis design method. In 1992, the design procedure for PCCP expanded from two alternatives to the most huge and complex AWWA standard C304. Because C304is so large, it takes too much time for the engineer to read and understand the design concepts and procedures. In this paper, the AWWA C304 design procedures are segmented into simple, understandable sections and concepts and explained. Each section or concepts is compared to the previous design procedure to highlight the revisions and reasons for them. Also the PCCP design program was developed and the design program results are compared with the calculations of the GMR project design consultant.

Recently, the demand for Building Information Modeling (BIM) construction drawings and specifications has increased rapidly. Many countries have also started to implement BIM. The BIM implementation can change the design flow of buildings including high-rise buildings. Against this background, many companies are focusing on the development of BIM software. BIM involves a three-dimensional CAD program that can examine the placement of ductwork and machinery. It significantly increases the efficiency of a mechanical design through data unification using standard Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). In addition, BIM functions as a database to simplify the use of simulation technology for designing air-conditioning systems. To further develop BIM, it is important to know the expectations of mechanical engineers who will become frequent users of BIM in the future. A survey was conducted among Japanese mechanical engineers using a questionnaire to analyze the expectations of mechanical design using BIM. The results show that many respondents strongly recognize BIM as a three-dimensional CAD program. However they also expect that BIM can help the optimization of their design works and enhance design functionality by running simulations utilizing BIM.

Penetration and installation of a new dynamic technology known as Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) in a practical and dynamic network requires and force expert engineer to develop robust and flexible strategy for planning and control. Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is one of the recent and effective FACTS devices designed for multi control operation to enhance the power system security. This paper presents a dynamic strategy based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for optimal parameters setting of UPFC to enhance the system loadability. Firstly, we perform a multi power flow analysis with load incrementation to construct a global database to determine the initial efficient bounds associated to active power and reactive power target vector. Secondly a PSO technique applied to search the new parameters setting of the UPFC within the initial new active power and reactive power target bounds. The proposed approach is implemented with Matlab program and verified with IEEE 30-Bus test network. The results show that the proposed approach can converge to the near optimum solution with accuracy, and confirm that flexible multi-control of this device coordinated with efficient location enhance the system security of power system by eliminating the overloaded lines and the bus voltage violation.

Using of masonry infill as partitions, in flat slab frame buildings is a common practice in many parts of the world. The infill is, generally, not considered in the design and the buildings are designed as bare frames. More of fundamental information in the effect of masomary infill on the seismic performance of RC building frames is in great demand for structural engineers. Therefore the main aim of this research is to evaluate the seismic performance of such buildings without (bare frame) and with various systems of the masonary infill. For this purpose, thirteen three dimensional models are chosen and analyzed by SAP2000 program. In this study the stress strain relation model proposed by Crisafulli for the hysteric behaviour of masonary subjected to cyclic loading is used. The results show that the nonstructural masonary infill can impart significant increase global strength and stiffness of such building frames and can enhance the seismic behaviour of flat slab frame building to large extent depending on infill wall system. As a result great deal of insight has been obtained on seismic response of such flat slab buildings which enable the structural engineer to determine the optimum position of infill wall between the columns.

스프링클러 설비의 설계방법은 크게 3가지로 분류한다. 가지관을 서로 연결하여 사다리형태로 배관을 설치하는 Grid형과 가지관은 연결하지 않고 교차배관만을 연결하는 Loop형 그리고 가장 일반적으로 사용되는 Tree형이 있다. 이 중 Grid형은 아주 간단한 것을 제외하고는 컴퓨터프로그램으로 마찰손실을 계산하여야 하지만 Loop형의 경우는 프로그램의 도움 없이 설계자가 직접 계산하여 마찰손실에 따른 필요압력과 소요유량을 산출할 수 있다. Loop형 설비의 경우 소화수 공급이 2방향으로 분리되어 마찰손실이 작아지고 헤드간 방출압력의 차이가 Tree형보다 작게 되어 살수분포가 우수하게 되며 작은 마찰손실에 의한 소구경의 배관을 사용하여 자재비와 인건비가 절감되므로 Loop형에 의한 스프링클러의 설계가 Tree형 설비에 비해 성능과 경제성에서 우수한 설계 방법이다. 하지만 Loop형 설비의 설계는 설계방법이 잘 알려져 있지 않아 거의 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Tree형 보다 우수한 Loop형 설비의 설계방법을 설명하여 많은 설계자가 성능과 경제면에서 우수한 Loop형 설계를 쉽게, 널리 사용하게 하고자 하였다.

Graphene is a carbon based material and it has great potential of being utilized in various fields such as electronics, optics, and mechanics. In order to develop graphene-based logic systems, graphene field-effect transistor (GFET) has been extensively explored. GFET requires supporting devices, such as volatile memory, to function in an embedded logic system. As far as we understand, graphene has not been studied for volatile memory application, although several graphene non-volatile memories (GNVMs) have been reported. However, we think that these GNVM are unable to serve the logic system properly due to the very slow program/read speed. In this study, a GVM based on the GFET structure and using an engineered graphene channel is proposed. By manipulating the deposition condition, charge traps are introduced to graphene channel, which store charges temporarily, so as to enable volatile data storage for GFET. The proposed GVM shows satisfying performance in fast program/erase (P/E) and read speed. Moreover, this GVM has good compatibility with GFET in device fabrication process. This GVM can be designed to be dynamic random access memory (DRAM) in serving the logic systems application. We demonstrated GVM with the structure of FET. By manipulating the graphene synthesis process, we could engineer the charge trap density of graphene layer. In the range that our measurement system can support, we achieved a high performance of GVM in refresh (>10 ${\mu}s$) and retention time (~100 s). Because of high speed, when compared with other graphene based memory devices, GVM proposed in this study can be a strong contender for future electrical system applications.

실무에서 지진해석법으로 널리 쓰이는 방법은 등가정적해석법과 응답스펙트럼해석법이다. 이 중 등가정적해석법에 의한 밑면전단력은 구조물의 주축을 해석좌표축에 어떻게 배치하는가와 상관없이 일관된 값을 나타낸다. 그러나 응답스펙트럼해석은 해석좌표 축에 구조물의 주축을 다르게 배치하여 해석을 수행하면 밑면전단력이 각기 다르게 발생한다. 이는 엔지니어가 구조물을 설계함에 있어 구조물의 주축을 해석좌표축에 어떻게 설정했는지에 따라 설계부재력이 모두 달라질 수 있음을 뜻한다. 또한 응답스펙트럼해석은 지진을 가한 방향의 직각방향에서 적지 않은 응답이 발생하는 경우가 생긴다. 한방향 해석에 대한 X와 Y축을 따라 분리되는 이러한 양방향 응답은 보정계수 산정시 쓰이는 밑면전단력을 작게 만들며 이는 결과적으로 보정계수를 크게하여 과다설계의 우려가 생긴다. 내진설계시 발생하는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 수평의 강성 차이에 따라 구조물을 크게 세 가지(양방향 대칭 구조물, 한방향 비대칭구조물, 양방향 비대칭구조물)로 분류하여 각각의 경우에 대하여 간단한 모델을 선정하고 구조물의 주축을 회전시켜가면서 지진해석을 수행하였다. 각 경우의 예제구조물이 가지는 동적특성과 설계부재력을 살펴보았다. 현재 실무에서 적용되는 보정계수 산정법에 의한 설계부재력과 앞선 문제들을 해결하고자 본 논문에서 제안하는 새로운 보정계수 산정법에 의한 설계부재력을 비교하여 제안하는 보정계수 산정법의 효율성을 검토하였다. 그 결과로 새로 제안된 보정계수 산정법에 의하여 설계부재력을 산정하는 것이 내진설계시 엔지니어들이 겪을 수 있는 혼란을 덜어주며 경제적인 부재설계가 가능함을 알 수 있었다.
