In recent years there has been a growing interest in renewable energy systems due to the environmental problem and the economic benefits of fuel savings. Such systems are usually connected to the existing power grid for "fuel displacement" purpose as well as of earning some "capacity credit". Wind power generation system(WPGS) is one of the most useful energy resource using natural environment. So far, it was very difficult to simulate the dispersed generation system including WPGS using EMTP or EMTDC because the source of the dispersed generation system has a particular wind power characteristic equation. In this paper, a novel simulation method of WPGS has proposed and a new wind turbine component for EMTDC is also developed. The wind power characteristic equation of wind turbine is used in order to realize the WPGS in EMTDC simulation. And the real field data of weather conditions is interfaced to EMTDC using Fortran program interface method. Consequently the simulation of WPGS using field data is realized in this paper and shows acceptable results.

For general laser power supply. output of the secondary of the power transformer is connected to the rectifier and filter capacitor. The output of a rectifier is applied to a switching element in the secondary of the transformer. So, power supply is complicated and the loss of switching is considerably. In addition, according to increasing pulse repetition. charged energy of energy storage capacitor is not transferred sufficiently to flashlamp. and laser output efficiency decreases. In this paper, to improve laser efficiency. we designed and fabricated the power supply in which the SCR was turned on in zero point by the method of ZCC(zero crossing control)in result, laser output efficiency in creased by about 3.5% other than conventional supply. when a repetition rate was increased by 10[pps]. In 60[pps]. efficiency was about 20%.

As the mobile services have been increased, the interference of the neighboring base stations is increased and the PIMD(Passive Inter-Modulation Distortion) has been a main issue for the design of base station antenna systems. In this paper, it is proposed the PIMD test method for the active basestation antenna whose radiators are directly connected with main active parts including amplifiers, and we presents its test results using a developed active basestation antenna. From the results, the active basestation antenna has the better PIMD performance than conventional passive structure by 8.4dB. The proposed PIMD test method can be used to get the accurate PIMD test result because the test environment is very similar with real basestation.

The paper deals with the problem related to the modelling of riveted assemblies for crashworthiness analysis of full-scale complete aircraft structures. Comparisons between experiments and standard FE computations on high-energy accidental situations onto aluminium riveted panels show that macroscopic plastic strains are not sufficiently localised in the FE shells connected to rivet elements. The main reason is related to the structural embrittlement caused by holes, which are currently not modelled. Consequently, standard displacement FE models do not succeed in initialising and propagating the rupture in sheet metal plates and along rivet rows as observed in the experiments. However, the literature survey show that it is possible to formulate super-elements featuring defects that both give accurate singular strain fields and are compatible with standard displacement finite elements. These super-elements can be related to the displacement model of the hybrid-Trefftz principle of the finite element method, which is a kind of domain decomposition method. A feature of hybrid-Trefftz finite elements is that they are mainly used for elastic computations. It is thus proposed to investigate the possibility of formulating a hybrid displacement finite element, including the effects of a hole, dedicated to crashworthiness analysis of full-scale aeronautic structures.

A construction method of energy-efficient data aggregation tree is proposed by considering a tradeoff between acquisition time and energy consumption in wireless sensor networks. This proposed method constructs the data aggregation tree to minimize the link cost between the connected nodes for reducing energy consumption, while minimizing the maximum distance between sensor nodes and a sink node for rapid information gathering. Simulation results show that the proposed aggregation tree can be generated with low complexity and achieves high energy efficiency compared to conventional methods.

This paper proposes a novel scheme for the current controller for the grid-side converter (GSC) of permanent-magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind turbines to eliminate the high-order harmonics in the grid currents under grid voltage disturbances. The voltage unbalance and harmonics in three-phase systems cause grid current distortions. In order to mitigate the input current distortions, multi-loop current controllers are applied, where the positive-sequence component is regulated by proportional-integral (PI) controllers, and the negative-sequence and high-order harmonic components are regulated by proportional-resonance (PR) controllers. For extracting the positive/negative-sequence and harmonic components of the grid voltages and currents without a phase delay or magnitude reduction, composite observers are applied, which give faster and more precise estimation results. In addition, an active damping method using PR controllers to damp the grid current component of the resonant frequency is employed to improve the operating stability of VSCs with inductor-capacitor-inductor (LCL) filters. The validity of the proposed method is verified by simulation and experimental results.

This paper presents a new method to implement Hebbian learning method on artificial neural network. In hebbian learning algorithm, complexity in terms of multiplications is high. To save the chip area, we consider a new learning circuit. By calculating similarity, or correlation between $X_i$ and $O_i$, large portion of circuits commonly used in conventional neural networks is not necessary for this new hebbian learning circuit named COR. The output signals of COR is applied to weight storage capacitors for direct control the voltages of the capacitors. The weighted sum, ${\Sigma}W_{ij}O_j$, is realized by multipliers, whose output currents are summed up in one line which goes to learning circuit or output circuit. The drain current of the multiplier can produce positive or negative synaptic weights. The pass transistor selects eight learning mode or recall mode. The layout of an learnable six-neuron fully connected Hopfield neural network is designed, and is simulated using PSPICE. The network memorizes, and retrieves the patterns correctly under the existence of minor noises.

Eco-friendly hybrid railroad propulsion system with fuel-cell and battery was suggested to reduce carbon dioxide gas and replace retired diesel railroads. Lithium-ion battery with high energy/power density and long lifetime is selected as the energy source at the battery side due to its excellent performance. However, the performance of lithium-ion batteries was affected by temperature, current rate, and operating condition. Temperature is known to be the most influential factor in changing battery parameters. In addition, appropriate thermal management is required to ensure the safe and effective operation of lithium-ion battery. Electro-thermal coupled model with varying parameter depends on temperature, and state-of-charge (SOC) is suggested to estimate battery temperature. The electric-thermal coupled model contains diffusion current using parameter identification by adaptive control algorithm when considering thermal diffusion effect. An experiment under forced convection was conducted using cylindrical cell and 18 parallel-connected battery module to demonstrate the method.

DC distribution system has been evaluated as an excellent one in comparison with existing AC distribution network because it needs fewer power conversion stages and the full capacity of the equipment can be used without consideration for power factor. Recently, research and development on the implementation of DC distribution networks have been progressed globally based on the rapid advancement in power-electronics technology, and the technological developments from the viewpoint of infrastructure are also in progress. However, to configure a distribution network which is a distribution line for DC, more accurate and rapid introduction of analysis technology is needed for the monitoring, control and operation of the system, which ensure the system run flexible and efficiently. However, in case of a bipolar DC distribution network, there are two buses acting as slack buses, so the Jacobian matrix cannot be configured. Without solving this problem, DC distribution network cannot be operated when the network is unbalanced. Therefore, this paper presented a comprehensive method of analysis with consideration of operating elements which are directly connected between neutral electric potential caused by the unbalanced of load in DC distribution network with bipolar structure.
