Resilience is defined as the intrinsic ability of a system to adjust its functioning prior to, during, or following changes and disturbances, so that it can sustain required operations or functions with the related systems under both expected and unexpected conditions. Resilience engineering is a relatively new paradigm for safety management that focuses on how to cope with complexity under pressure or disturbance to achieve successful functioning. This study aims to develop a quantitative resilience model for severe accident response organizations of nuclear power plants using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. First, we investigated severe accident response organizations based on a radiation emergency plan in the Korean case and developed a qualitative resilience model for the organizations with resilience-influencing factors, which have been identified in the author's previous studies. Then, a quantitative model for entire severe accident response organizations was developed by using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method with a tool for System Dynamics. For applying the AHP method, several experts who are working on implementing, regulating or researching the severe accident response participated in collecting their expertise on the relative importance between all the possible relations in the model. Finally, a sensitivity analysis was carried out to discuss which factors have the most influenceable on resilience.

Global environmental concerns and the ever increasing need of energy, coupled with steady progress in renewable energy technologies, are opening up new opportunities for utilization of renewable energy resources. Distributed electricity generation is a suitable option for sustainable development thanks to the load management benefits and the opportunity to provide electricity to remote areas. Solar energy being easy to harness, non-polluting and never ending is one of the best renewable energy sources for electricity generation in present and future time. Due to the random and intermittent nature of solar source, PV plants require the adoption of an energy storage and management system to compensate fluctuations and to meet the energy demand during night hours. This paper presents an efficient, economic and technical model for the design of a MPPT based grid connected PV with battery storage and management system. This system satisfies the energy demand through the PV based battery energy storage system. The aim is to present PV-BES system design and management strategy to maximize the system performance and economic profitability. PV-BES (photovoltaic based battery energy storage) system is operated in different modes to verify the system feasibility. In case of excess energy (mode 1), Li-ion batteries are charged using CC-CV mechanism effectively controlled by fuzzy logic based PID control system whereas during the time of insufficient power from PV system (mode 2), batteries are used as backup to compensate the power shortage at load and likewise other modes for different scenarios. This operational mode change in PV-BES system is implemented by State flow chart technique based on SOC, DC bus voltages and solar Irradiance. Performance of the proposed PV-BES system is verified by some simulations study. Simulation results showed that proposed system can overcome the disturbance of external environmental changes, and controls the energy flow in efficient and economical way.

최근 컴퓨터, 전기, 전자, 통신, 반도체 장비 등의 전기적 외란에 민감한 부하 설비의 사용이 증가함에 따라 전력 품질에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 더 나아가서는 정밀 부하 장비들에 가장 빈번하게 발생하는 순간 전압 강하는 전력 품질 향상을 위해 적정한 보상이 필요하게 된다. 이를 위해 전기 이중층 커패시터 (EDLC : electric double layer capacitor)를 사용한 순간전압강하 보상장치가 개발되어 적용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 순간전압강하 보상장치 (DVR : dynamic voltage restorer)에 사용되는 전기 이중층 커패시터(EDLC)에 비해 동일 사이즈 대비 에너지 밀도가 높은 하이브리드 커패시터 (hybrid capacitor)를 적용하는 연구를 하였고, 또한, 유도등의 비상 전원으로써 10년 이상의 수명을 보증할 수 있는 제품으로 하이브리드 커패시터 (hybrid capacitor)의 적용 가능성을 확인하였다.

일반적으로 아크용접기의 정류기로 다이오드정류기가 사용되고 있다. 이것의 문제점은 높은 고조파전류가 발생된다는 것이고 아울러 전원측의 오염문제를 야기한다. 본 논문에서는 PWM 컨버터를 사용함으로써 아크용접기의 입력특성이 개선됨을 보인다. 회로구조상 다이오드 정류기와 PWM컨버터로 대체되고 부하단에 안정적인 전력을 공급하기 위하여 직류단전압이 PI제어기에 의해 제어된다. PI 제어기가 직류단 전압제어를 위해 사용되는 경우 예측불가능한 용접부하의 특성상 높은 전압맥동성분이 발생된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 전압제어기의 속응성을 개선하기 위하여 전향보상기가 도입되었고 이의 분석을 통하여 전압제어기의 외란으로 간주되는 부하전류의 변동이 전압의 맥동성분에 영향을 줄이는 이론적 예측을 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통해 검증한다.

Marine algal flora and community structure were seasonally examined at three sites in the vicinity of the Wolseong nuclear power plant in Korea from February to November 2006. A total of 126 seaweeds including 25 green, 31 brown, 70 red algae, and 1 marine plant were identified. The greatest number of species occurred at Jeonchonri (101 species) followed by intake (88 species) and discharge (29 species) during the study period. Of 126 seaweeds, 76 annuals and 13 warm tolerance species were recorded. Dominant species based on important value (IV > 10) were Ulva pertusa and Enteromorpha linza at intake, U. pertusa and Padina arborescens at discharge, and Sargassum horneri and Corallina pilulifera at Jeonchonri shore. Annual average biomass exhibited a wide range of variations, from 40.67g m-2 in dry weight at discharge to 133.69g m-2 at Jeonchonri. Among six functional groups, dominant group was coarsely-branched form at intake and Jeonchonri, but it was different at discharge site as filamentous form. Seaweed community structures of discharge site were distinguishable in decreasing species richness, biomass, species diversity index (H’), richness index (R), and evenness index (J’). Also, the ratios of green algae, warm tolerance species, annual algae, filamentous form and dominance index (DI) remarkably increased. Such phenomenons of discharge site are usually found under environmentally stressful conditions such as high disturbance. Thus, I can conclude that the heated effluents of nuclear power plant act as environmental stress influencing seaweed community structures and it can be detected with various community indices.

Wire ropes are used in a myriad of various industrial applications such as elevator, mine hoist, construction machinery, lift, and suspension bridge. Especially, wire rope of crane is important component to container transfer. If it happens wire rope failures in operating, it may lead to safety accident, economic power loss by productivity decline, competitive power decline of container terminal and so on. To solve this problem, we developed wire rope fault detecting system as a portable instrument, and this system is consisted of 3 parts that fault detecting part using hall sensor, permanent magnets and analog unit, and digital signal processing part using data acquisition card, monitoring part using wavelet transform, denoising method. In this paper, a wire rope is scanned by this system after makes several broken parts on the surface of wire rope artificially. All detected signal has external noise or disturbance according to circumstances. So, we applied to discrete wavelet transform to extract a signal from noisy data that was used filter. In practical applications of denoising, it is shown that wavelet pursue it with little information loss and smooth signal display. It is verified that the detecting system by denoising has good efficiency for inspecting faults of wire ropes in service. As a result, by developing this system, container terminal could reduce expense because of extension of wire ropes exchange period and could competitive power. Also, this system is possible to apply in several fields like that elevator, lift and so on.

발전소나 화학플랜트의 급수 및 순환수 계통은 물론 건물의 공조설비 유체계통, 정수 또는 폐수설비에서의 원수유량 및 약품 주입제어 등과 같은 유체계통은 대부분 밸브와 동력 펌프를 이용해 유량 제어를 한다. 따라서 이들 유체계통의 제어방법 및 정밀도에 따라 그 시스템의 성능 및 에너지 절약에 많은 영향을 미치게 된다. 지금까지 이들 계통은 주로 PI제어기를 이용하였으나 이 제어 방법으로는 루프간의 간섭현상으로 정밀하게 유량부하를 제어 할수 없는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 유체계통 동력부하 설비를 다변수로 구성하여 2-자유 PID제어를 적용하고 신경망을 이용해 튜우닝함으로서 효과적으로 정밀하게 제어 할수 있는 방법을 제시하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 방법의 우수성을 입증하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 설정치를 잘 추종하고 외란에 대해서는 강인성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다.
