The solar cells and fuel cells power are being encouraged to reduce the environmental pollution and combat the global warming. And the electric generation hybrid system is usually more reliable and less costly than the systems that use a single source of energy. HOMER provides a platform to design and simulate the power system and then to choose the optimization results. Based on the electricity demand conditions during a year, this paper simulates with the HOMER and performs the monthly average electrical production and the most feasible economical case includes the net present costs and the annualized costs of the hybrid system components.

In this study, a design process of robotic cell is presented. This paper focuses only on the automation of workpiece handling with robot. The presented design process enables us to analyze effectiv ely the original production system and to redesign it as an optimum production system with robots. An original production system is analyzed with respect to its economical and technological requirements for automation. If automation of the given production system is feasible, the conceptual design for automation is firstly derived. Next, the detail design is derived for the optimum conceptual design. Finally, an optimum system solution is determined after the economical and technical evaluation of all the derived detail designs. The all specifications of each element of the redesigned production system and its layout are determined at the detail design phase. This paper shows a low cost supporting tool for layout design of robotic cell with SCARA type robots.

The purpose of this study is to set up the optimum economical formation of the purse seiner fishing system. For this task, the characteristics of existing purse-seiner fishing system were reviewed, and the possible formations of the fleet in tile purse-seiner fishing system were examined through the reallocation of function for each individual vessel. In addition, economic evaluations of the possible formations of the fleet are carried out. Consequently, it was found that 2-vessel formations have the most economic efficiency. Then, a conceptual system design for the main vessel in the 2-vessel formations was performed. As a result, this paper can be used as a helpful guideline to develop the most profitable and economical fishing system in the fleet type fishery.

In this paper, the applicability of PHC piles to replace Myanmar local piles were evaluated. In Myanmar, based on the size of the building, foundation design and field applications are carried out using bored pile and square pile. As a result of the analysis, the application of PHC pile is more economical than conventional bored pile or square pile which was applied in the high rise (17-story) and middle story (12-story) buildings. However, in the low - rise (8-story) building, the application of the existing square piles was found to be more economical than PHC pile.

In the current study, we aim to evaluate both microstructural characteristics and economic benefits of composite structures from supply chain utilizing AI-based method. In this regard, the various aspects of microstructure of composite materials along with the features of supply chain are discussed and quantified. In addition, the final economic aspects of the composite materials and are also presented. Based on available data, a designed artificial neural network is utilized for prediction of both microstructure and economical feature of the composite material. The results indicate that the supply chain could affect the microstructure of final composite materials which in turn make changes in the mechanical properties and durability of composite materials.

This study aims to introduce and economical review on the possibilities of rare earth elements(REEs) recovery from coal ashes and the analysis of economical evaluation factors based on the data for securing domestic rare earth elements. The cut-off grade of REEs on recovering from coal ash was confirmed to be 1,000 ppm on total rare earth oxides(TREO) basis, and while the economic value of coal ash changed with contents and specific elements of rare earth elements. This shall be resulted in the price differences of rare earth elements required by the current industry, and it probably varies depending on the future demand of rare earth components. For developing of commercial recovery technology on REEs in coal ashes, many researches have been carried out by various analyzing methods, such as evaluation of holding value of REEs in ashes, assessment between supply and demand of industry, comparison of investment and its profitability for the REEs's production from coal ashes, and so on. Although these methods have been suggested, its recovery system with economical feasibility could not been confirmed up to present. In this reason, the process design of recovering REEs from coal ash shall be researched continuously to solve the problems of the global rare earth market. And also these researches shall be conducted actively in Korea for the purpose of securing the REEs resources and their recovering technologies.

Recently the building of ultra large container ship are discussed among ship building companies and ship operating company who have a tendency to pursue the advantage of large scale of economy. These tendency will be continued for the time being, if ship-building skill and economical efficiency are available. As the enlargement of container ship size becomes hot issues in ship-building markets, the needs for re-arrangement of accommodation house in large container ship are proposed carefully in some researches. This study examined economical efficiency of re-arrangement of accommodation house in ultra large container ship. The separation between accommodation and engine room is proposed through out drawing works in initial design stage and we examined the merits and demerits of the separation in the view of economical efficiency. The RFR(Required Freight Rate) is considered as the objective function to evaluate the re-designed vessel. The economical benefits are analyzed in the view of ship operator and shipyard respectively.

The economical efficiency of conversion of the PC (pulverized coal) firing boiler to the CFB (circulating fluidized bed) boiler which used Koran anthracite as fuel was evaluated. The economic feasibility study was also carried out with regard to maintenance of the existing PC boiler. The sensitivity of economical efficiency with variation of the electric power and coal industry and the policy of government was analyzed and compared. As a results of the evaluation, the economical efficiency of maintenance of the existing PC boiler was higher than that of conversion to the CFB boiler because of the special policy of the government for Korean anthracite. However, the conversion to the CFB boiler was more economically attractive from a point of view of effective use of energy resources and future electric power industry. Additionally, the fund support for electric power industry using Korean anthracite would be effective as changing the policy of the government.
