This paper presents a method for planning reactive power compensation such as shunt capacitors and reacters so as to maintain bus voltage in acceptable range during steady state operation in power system. The algorithm in this paper decomposes the problem into reactive power planning module for the compensation of bus voltage and load flow module for adjusting the error resulted from the linear approximation. A planning technique is based on linear programming to minimize the amount of added reactive power compensation in each case. Transformer tap settings and generator voltages are adjusted to minimize the compensation. The constraints are the operation limits of the control variables and bus voltages. The result of one sample system is presented to confirm the practical use of the proposed algorithm.

This paper focuses on robust $H_{\infty}$ control for bilinear systems with time-varying parameter uncertainties via state feedback. The suitable robustly stabilizing feedback control law can be constructed in term of solution to a state variable x-dependent quadratic Riccati equation using successive approximation technique. Also, the state feedback control law robustly stabilizes the plant and guarantees a robust $H_{\infty}$ performance for the closed-loop bilinear system with parameter uncertainties and exogenous disturbance.

This paper deals with the mathematical modeling of battery energy storage systems interconnected with the distribution system. This battery model takes account of self-discharge, battery storage capacity, internal resistance and overvoltage. The model components are decided by using an approximation technique and experimental results. This model can be used to evaluate battery performance of battery energy storage systems interconnected with distribution system.

This paper discusses approximate modelling of discrete-time linear time-varying system(LTVS). The wavelet transform is considered as a tool for representing and approximating a LTVS. The joint time-frequency properties of wave analysis are appropriate for describing the LTVS. Simulatly results is included to illustrate the popential application of the technique.

In this paper, an Extended Finite Element Method is proposed by adding discontinuity and singularity enrichment functions to the standard FEM approximation. In this method, the singularity and the discontinuity of the crack are efficiently modeled by using initial regular mesh without refining mesh near the crack tip, so that it enables express the asymptotic stress field near crack tip and crack surface successfully. The developed method was verified by evaluating crack tip stress profile and stress intensity factor of mode Ⅰ/mode Ⅱ fracture problems and the results showed the effectiveness and robustness for fracture problem.

Ball rolling blending is a popular technique for blending between parametric surfaces. The ball rolling blend surface is conceptually a trajectory of a ball rolling between two base sufaces. It is constructed by sweeping a circular arc along a ball contact curve pair. Since a ball rolling blend surfaces does not have a polynomial form like a Bezier surface patch, it is impossible to apply this method directly to a commercial CAD/CAM system. In this paper an algorithm is developed to approximate a ball rolling blend surface into Bezier surface patches. Least square method is applied to obtain proper Bezier surface patches under a given tolerance. The Bezier surface patches have degree three or more and guarantee VC1-continuity.

In this paper, the method to modify a surface through three dimensional vector field technique is presented, In this method two guide surfaces are required as a shape reference. One is the shape of original surface, the other is the target shape for the result surface. Proposed method is consists of two steps. The first step is to calculate the mapping points on original and target guide surfaces so that the shape error may be minimized. The second step is to construct the smooth vector field from mapping points of the first step. The developed method is applied to shoe design system which makes the surface modeling very easy and effective.

The purpose of this paper is to develope the evaluation technique to find proper elastic constants that characterize the material nonlinearity of structural membrane. The stress-strain curves of membrane material show strong nonlinearity. But generally the analysis is carried out under the assumption on material linear and geometrical nonlinear method. Because, it is very difficult to evaluate proper tangential stiffness. This paper use multi-step-linear approximation method taking the concept of effective stress for the evaluation of stiffness of membrane material, and then compare the results between linear and nonlinear analysis. Also. it shows better results than linear method

As a result of rapid advances in communication technology, fiber optics have begun to be adopted in most telecommunication systems 3s an economic choice Due to the trend of evolution toward broadband communication network with fiber optics and electronic devices. the network design problem for broadband communication has been received a great deal of research attention recently. In this paper, we address a topological design problem for broadband local access network with uncertain demands, which has received surprisingly little attention so far. in our problem, we select a set of hubs and links for constructing network expected penalty cost for the amount of undersupplied In addition to the usual cost terms of the fixed demand problem Our problem can be approximated as a mixed 0-1 integer programming problem by using Szwarc’s linear approximation technique. Then the problem is transformed successfully into a version of classical network design model. Some computational experiments for the model and concluding remarks are described.

In this paper Kalman filtering technique is applied to ultrasound signal to improve resolution capability, Ivhlch is in use of diagnostic imaging systems. The main advantage of Kalman filter algorithm for the analysis of reflected ultrasound signal is its recursive structure which can be easily adapted to tlme varing system. Because soft-tissues, such as liver, act as distributed acoustic low-pass filters which continually change the propagating pulse. tIne can put to practical use above advantage to find a suitable signal generallng model. In state-space description of the system, the 6th order system produces tl)e 1)esc spectral approximation to the source pulse As a result of spectrum analysis, 6th order estimator for two closely spaced ((p.5 mm) reflectors enhances resolution by 4dB-lOdB. By using this result, the possibility to detect even minute tumor is demonstrated.
