Zone 3 of the distance relay is used to provide the remote back-up protection in case of the failure of the primary protection. However, the risk for mal-operations under stressed conditions such as heavy loading, voltage and transient instability is usually high. Zone 3 is used in combination with the derivatives of the voltage, and current, etc to prevent mal-operations. Sometimes, the impedance characteristics that restrict the tripping area of relay are used to avoid the mal-operations due to load encroachment. This paper presents a novel zone 3 scheme based on combining the steady-state components(i.e. 60Hz) and the transient components(TCs) using a state diagram that visualizes the sequence of studies that emanate from the sequence of events. The simulation results show that the novel zone 3 distance relay elements using the proposed method operates correctly for the various events.

To understand the signal fluctuation of a wide-range oxygen sensor installed at the exhaust confluence point, when a misfiring is triggered in a cylinder, the steady state and the transient response characteristics of the sensor to the flow of the misfired gas were investigated quantitatively. It was recognized that the steady state output voltage of the sensor increased higher when it contacted the misfired gas even though the fueling condition was the same as the normal combustion case and this characteristic enabled the application of the wide-range oxygen sensor for the misfire detection. The transient response was compared at different engine speeds and it was found that the response speed increased with the engine speed. The signal fluctuation was also estimated quantitatively, using these steady state and transient response of the sensor, and the estimated signal showed satisfactory correlation with the measurements.

The latest offshore wind turbines are easily exposed to lightning strikes because they are designed with longer blades and taller height to satisfy the growing capacity demands. The generation facilities and elements of the offshore wind farm are more vulnerable to lightning damage because of more severe, unpredictable weather conditions. Therefore, this paper presents the analysis of measure for lightning overvoltage mitigation in offshore wind farm planned in South Korea southwest seashore. The sensitivity analysis includes the steady state and transient state characteristics of offshore wind farm and proposes the countermeasure for mitigation of transient overvoltage by considering earth resistivity of the offshore environment.

In this study, we have investigated transient properties of top emission organic light emitting diode (OLED) with a red electrophosphorescent dopant. The emission spectrum shows a strong peak at 620 nm accompanied with a small peak at 675 nm in the red region. Time evolution of electrophosphorescence reveals a decay time of 703 ms at a voltage pulse of 5 V in a device with an emitting area of 20 $mm^2$. Rise and delay times vary from 450 to 14 ms and 73 to 3 ms, respectively, as the voltage amplitude increases from 4.5 to 10 V. These results are compared with the red emitting device without an electron injection layer.

In this paper, we investigated transient fault currents in a magnetic coupling High-Tc superconducting current limiter(HCL). It has an important effect on the reliability and stability of the power system. In order to analyze transient fault characteristics of HCL, we fabricated a magnetic coupling HCL and tested it in different fault conditions. An important parameter of design and manufacture which makes HCL inherently reliable is reduction of inrush fault currents. Without inrush fault currents, the currents flowing under such conditions can be limited to a desired-value within one cycle. Inrush fault current depends on saturation, normal spot propagation velocity, turns ratio and the fault angle.

Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are nonselective cationic channels, conserved among flies to humans. Most TRP channels have well known functions in chemosensation, thermosensation, and mechanosensation. In addition to being sensing environmental changes, many TRP channels are also internal sensors that help maintain homeostasis. Recent improvements to analytical methods for genomics and metabolomics allow us to investigate these channels in both mutant animals and humans. In this review, we discuss three aspects of TRP channels, which are their role in metabolism, their functional characteristics, and their role in metabolic syndrome. First, we introduce each TRP channel superfamily and their particular roles in metabolism. Second, we provide evidence for which metabolites TRP channels affect, such as lipids or glucose. Third, we discuss correlations between TRP channels and obesity, diabetes, and mucolipidosis. The cellular metabolism of TRP channels gives us possible therapeutic approaches for an effective prophylaxis of metabolic syndromes.

The construction of STELLA-2 facility is on-going to demonstrate the safety system of PGSFR and to provide comprehensive understanding of transient behavior under DBEs. Considering that most events are single-phase natural circulation flow with slow transient, STELLA-2 was designed with reduced-height of 1/5 length scale. The ratio of volume to surface area in the vessel can relatively increase resulting in excessive heat transfer. Therefore, a steady-state thermal-hydraulic analysis was performed and the effect of design change to reduce the heat transfer through redan was investigated. The heat transfer through single wall redan in STELLA-2 was 3% of the core power, comparable to 1% of the core power in PGSFR. By applying the insulated redan, about 70% of decrease effect was observed. The effect on transient behavior was also evaluated. The conclusion of this study was directly applied to the STELLA-2 design and the modified version is under construction.

Roll drafting operation causes variations in the linear density of bundles because the bundle flow cannot be controlled completely by roll pairs. Defects occurring in this operation bring about many problems successively in the next processes. In this paper, we attempt to analyze the draft dynamics and the linear density irregularity based on the governing equation of a bundle motion that has been suggested in our previous studies. For analyzing the dynamic characteristics of the roll drafting operation, it is indispensable to investigate a transient state in time domain before the bundle flux reaches a steady state. However, since governing equations of bundle flow consisting of continuity and motion equations turn out to be nonlinear, and coupled between variables, the solutions for a transient state cannot be obtained by an analytical method. Therefore, we use the Finite Difference Method(FDM), particularly, the FTBS(Forward-Time Backward-Space) difference method. Then, the total equations system yields to an algebraic equations system and is solved under given initial and boundary conditions in an iterative fashion. From the simulation results, we confirm that state variables show different behavior in the transient state; e.g., the velocity distribution in the flow field changes more quickly the linear density distribution. During a transient flow in a drafting zone, the output irregularity is influenced differently by the disturbances, e.g., the variation in input bundle thickness, the drafting speed, and the draft ratio.

In general, the number of underwater transient signals is very limited for research on automatic recognition. Data-dependent feature extraction is one of the most effective methods in this case. Therefore, we suggest WPCC (Wavelet packet ceptsral coefficient) as a feature extraction method. A wavelet packet best tree for each data set is formed using an entropy-based cost function. Then, every terminal node of the best trees is counted to build a common wavelet best tree. It corresponds to flexible and non-uniform filter bank reflecting characteristics for the data set. A GMM (Gaussian mixture model) is used to classify five classes of underwater transient data sets. The error rate of the WPCC is compared using MFCC (Mel-frequency ceptsral coefficients). The error rates of WPCC-db20, db40, and MFCC are 0.4%, 0%, and 0.4%, respectively, when the training data consist of six out of the nine pieces of data in each class. However, WPCC-db20 and db40 show rates of 2.98% and 1.20%, respectively, while MFCC shows a rate of 7.14% when the training data consists of only three pieces. This shows that WPCC is less sensitive to the number of training data pieces than MFCC. Thus, it could be a more appropriate method for underwater transient recognition. These results may be helpful to develop an automatic recognition system for an underwater transient signal.
