Protection of the electrical and electronic equipment against surges in low voltage AC power distribution systems is based on wide applications of surge protective devices(SPDs). Cascade application of SPDs located at the service entrance of a building and near sensitive equipment is intended to ensure the optimal voltage protection level and energy sharing among cascade SPDs. In this paper, when surges impinge at the service entrance of the building of interest, the protection characteristics of two-stage cascade SPD systems were investigated. The influence of the distance between the upstream and downstream SPDs on the voltage protection level and energy sharing of the two-stage cascade SPD systems were analyzed experimentally. It was found that the energy sharing of two-stage cascade SPD systems strongly depends on the distance between the two SPDs and the component of SPD. As the distance between the two SPDs increases, the energy absorbed by the upstream SPD increases while the energy absorbed by the downstream SPD decreases. Consequently, it is desirable to select the upstream and downstream SPDs having the proper energy capability with due consideration of the distance between the two SPDs.

Both Facing Target Sputtering(FTS) and Cylindrical Post-Magnetron Sputtering(CPMS) systems have been degigned in order to form high density plasma and to obtain high deposition rate. However, these two systems have some different applications, and discharge characteristics of these two systems are not well known. In this paper, the discharge characteristics and plasma parameters of both FTS and CPMS systems are studied experimentally. It is found that these two system show some different discharge characteristics under magnetic fields. The plasma density and electron temperature of these two systems are in the range of $10^{10}{\sim}10^{11}[cm^{-3}]$ and $3.5{\sim}5.5[eV]$, respectively.

Up to now, many state-of-arts have been proposed for two-way relaying system with linear modulations. The performances of antenna selection (AS) at both transmit and relay nodes need to be investigated in some two-way relaying multiple-input multiple-output (TWRM) systems. In this paper, the goal is focused on the study of nonlinear modulations, i.e., continuous phase modulation (CPM) in TWRM systems. Firstly, the joint phase trellis are simplified by reversed Rimoldi processing so as to reduce the systems' complexity. Then the performances of joint transmit and receive antenna selection (JTRAS) with CPM modulations in two-way relaying MIMO systems are analyzed. More exactly, the pair wise probability (PEP) is used to evaluate the error performance based on the CPM signal matrix, which is calculated in terms of Laurent expression. Since the channels subject to two terminal nodes share common antennas at relay node R in multiple-access scheme, we revise the JTRAS algorithm and compare it to existing algorithm via simulation. Finally, the error performances for various schemes of antenna selection are simulated and compared to the analysis in this paper.

In this paper, we propose an efficient method to allocate carrier frequencies so as to minimize intermodulation products in two-level SCPC systems in which Hub station and many Remote stations communicate each other through the satellite transponder. Also we present a very efficient method to evaluate intermodulation products with highly reduced CPU time in two-level SCPC systems. We study and analyze the performance of some possible methods to extend the Deletion and Insertion operation, which is proposed by Okinaka and applied to only one-level SCPC systems, to two-level SCPC systems. The proposed algorithm is carefully selected out of these methods and is optimized, which shows superior performance to any other published strategies, especially in that it has very excellent characteristics in terms of generality for practical application. Considering the fact that most published strategies are seldom applicable to actual two-level SCPC systems, we can say that the proposed algorithm in this paper is quite meaningful.

The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of two different feeding systems on blood metabolites in Holstein heifers and analyze the economic impacts of the feeding systems. The following two experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of feeding system on blood metabolite changes in Holstein heifers and analyze the economic impacts of the two systems. In experiment 1, the effects of two different feeding systems on cortisol, progesterone, and estradiol in Holstein heifers were examined. In experiment 2, the effects of two different feeding systems on the body weights of Holstein heifers and profitability of the two feeding systems were studied. Results showed that the pasture-raised heifers showed significantly decrease in the levels of blood cortisol (p<0.05) and increases in the levels of progesterone and estradiol (p>0.05) when compared with heifers raised in indoor feeding system. The average daily gain was significantly higher (p<0.05) in indoor-raised heifers (0.73 kg/day) as compared to pasture-raised heifers (0.58 kg/day). Also, 25.2% more profits were obtained from the pasture feeding system as compared to the indoor feeding system. These results together would be useful in the investigation of feeding system and growth performance in dairy cattle.

Performance of PEM fuel cell systems and hybrid systems combining a PEMFC with a gas turbine have been evaluated. Two different reforming methods(steam reforming and autothermal reforming) were considered. Performances of fuel cell systems with two reforming methods were compared and effects of various design parameters on the system performance were investigated. Configurations of PEM fuel cell systems with two reforming methods have been revised to accommodate a gas turbine, resulting in PEMFC/GT hybrid systems. Performance of the hybrid systems were analyzed and compared with those of PEM systems. Influences of major design parameters on the hybrid system performance were also investigated.

In this paper, an effective mount design method using vector synthesis is presented for two mount systems. For designing mount stiffnesses effectively, we perform a sensitivity analysis, i.e, identify the contribution rate of an input component vector to the total output vector. Especially, we show that it is necessary to takea phase sensitivity into consideration in case of two mount systems, such as the excavator mount systems having engine mounts and cabin mounts. THe proposed method is testified is testified through an test bed.

An adaptive pH control is developed to manipulate the nonlinearities and time-varying properties of pH systems. In this research, we estimate two adjustable parameters by using the recursive least squares method and a nonlinear PI controller is used to control pH systems based on the estimated two parameters.

Using two different, but related approaches, an exact dynamic stiffness matrix for a two-part beam-mass system is developed from the free vibration theory of a Bernoulli-Euler beam. The first approach is based on matrix transformation while the second one is a direct approach in which the kinematical conditions at the interfaces of the two-part beam-mass system are satisfied. Both procedures allow an exact free vibration analysis of structures such as a plane or a space frame, consisting of one or more two-part beam-mass systems. The two-part beam-mass system described in this paper is essentially a structural member consisting of two different beam segments between which there is a rigid mass element that may have rotatory inertia. Numerical checks to show that the two methods generate identical dynamic stiffness matrices were performed for a wide range of frequency values. Once the dynamic stiffness matrix is obtained using any of the two methods, the Wittrick-Williams algorithm is applied to compute the natural frequencies of some frameworks consisting of two-part beam-mass systems. Numerical results are discussed and the paper concludes with some remarks.

This paper is for applying interactive fuzzy linear programming for the problem of product mix planning, which is one of the aggregate planning problem. We developed a modified algorithm, which has two-phase approach for interactive fuzzy linear programming to get a better solution. Adding two-phase method, we expect to obtain not only the highest membership degree, but also a better utilization of each constrained resource.
