기존의 비선형 정적 및 동적 해석에서는 철근콘크리트 구조물의 에너지 소산능력을 정확히 고려하지 못하고 있다. 최근 연구에서는 휨지배 철근콘크리트 부재의 에너지 소산능력을 정확히 평가할 수 있는 식이 개발되었으며, 본 연구에서는 이 평가방법을 이용하여 에너지 소산능력을 정확히 고려할 수 있는 비선형 정적 및 동적 해석 방법을 개발하였다. 비선형 정적 해석을 위하여 에너지 스펙트럼 곡선을 개발하고 이를 적용하여 능력스펙트럼법을 개선하였으며, 또한 비선형 동적 해석을 위하여 철근콘크리트 부재의 단순화된 에너지 기초 주기거동모델을 개발하였다. 제안된 모델은 부재의 강성에 기초한 기존의 주기거동모델과는 달리 완전한 주기거동 발생시 소산되는 에너지를 정확하게 반영할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 제안된 방법에 따라 비선형 정적 및 동적 해석법의 절차를 정립하였으며 이를 적용한 컴퓨터 해석 프로그램을 개발하였다. 제안된 해석 방법은 부재의 단면형태, 철근비, 배근형태 등 설계 변수에 따른 에너지 소산능력을 정확하게 고려하고 지진발생시 에너지 소산능력이 구조물의 성능에 미치는 효과를 반영할 수 있다.

This paper reviews several multi-source localization methods which estimate ITDs based on zero crossings (ZCs). Employing signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) estimation from ITD variances, these ZC-based source localization methods are more robust to diffuse noise than the cross-correlation (CC)-based one with less computational complexity. In order to take reverberant environments into account, two approaches detect intervals which dominantly contain direct-path components from sources to sensors because they may effectively provide reliable ITDDs corresponding to source directions. One accomplishes the detection by comparing the original and cepstral-prefiltering-processed envelopes, and the other searches sudden increase of acoustic energy by considering typical characteristics of acoustic reverberation. Experiments for comparison of these methods demonstrate that the approach with energy-based detection efficiently achieves multi-source localization in reverberant environments.

Force based design (FBD) approach is prevalent in most of the national seismic design codes world over. Direct displacement based design (DDBD) and energy based design (EBD) approaches are relatively new methods of seismic design which claims to be more rational and predictive than the FBD. These three design approaches are conceptually distinct and imparts different strength, stiffness and ductility property to structural members for same plan configuration. In present study behavioural assessment of frame of six storey RC building designed using FBD, DDBD and EBD approaches has been performed. Lateral storey forces distribution, reinforcement design and results of nonlinear performance using static and dynamic methods have been compared. For the three approaches, considerable difference in lateral storey forces distribution and reinforcement design has been observed. Nonlinear pushover analysis and time history analysis results show that in FBD frame plastic deformation is concentrated in the lower storey, in EBD frame large plastic deformation is concentrated in the middle storeys though the inelastic hinges are well distributed over the height and, in DDBD frame plastic deformation is approximately uniform over the height. Overall the six storey frame designed using DDBD approach seems to be more rational than the other two methods.

The increase of exhaust gas which is caused by with the industry activity which follows in the Industrial Revolution of the human being has had an influence on the globe climate system so that causes the problem of the greenhouse effect. As a comprehensive countermeasures, it has been prompted to save energy, build a structure environmentally friendly and use renewable energy sources that are continually replenished by nature-the sun, the wind, the Earth's heat, and plants. In addition, new technologies that turn these fuels into usable forms of energy-most often electricity, but also heat, chemicals or mechanical power have been applied actively to the social infrastructure. Therefore, there should be methods to manage forms of renewable energy effectively and securely. This paper proposes the web-based monitoring system for the wind power system of these methods and introduces the real web-based monitoring system installed in Daegwallyeong.

Effective energy consumption now becomes one of the area of knowledge management which potentially gives global impact. It is considerable for the energy management to optimize the usage of energy, rather than decreasing energy consumption at any cases. To resolve these challenges, an intelligent and personalized system which helps the individuals control their own behaviors in an optimal and timely manner is needed. So far, however, since the legacy energy management systems are nation-wide or organizational, individual-level energy management is nearly impossible. Moreover, most estimating methods of energy consumption are based on forecasting techniques which tend to risky or analysis models which may not be provided in a timely manner. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to propose a novel individual-level energy management system which aims to realize timely and personalized energy management based on context-aware computing approach. To do so, an index model for energy consumption is proposed with a corresponding service framework.

The interdisciplinary research area of small scale energy harvesting has attracted tremendous interests in the past decades, with a goal of ultimately realizing self-powered electronic systems. Among the various available ambient energy sources which can be converted into electricity, wind energy is a most promising and ubiquitous source in both outdoor and indoor environments. Significant research outcomes have been produced on small scale wind energy harvesting in the literature, mostly based on piezoelectric conversion. Especially, modeling methods of wind energy harvesting techniques plays a greatly important role in accurate performance evaluations as well as efficient parameter optimizations. The purpose of this paper is to present a guideline on the modeling methods of small-scale wind energy harvesters. The mechanisms and characteristics of different types of aeroelastic instabilities are presented first, including the vortex-induced vibration, galloping, flutter, wake galloping and turbulence-induced vibration. Next, the modeling methods are reviewed in detail, which are classified into three categories: the mathematical modeling method, the equivalent circuit modeling method, and the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. This paper aims to provide useful guidance to researchers from various disciplines when they want to develop and model a multi-way coupled wind piezoelectric energy harvester.

최근 능력스펙트럼법, 직접변위기초설계법 등과 같은 성능에 기초한 내진 평가/설계법이 개발되어 사용되고 있다. 이들 방법은 구조물의 비선형 주기거동에 의한 에너지 소산능력을 고려함에 있어 부정확한 경험식에 의존하는 한계를 보이고 있다. 한편, 최근 연구에서 휨지배 철근콘크리트 부재에 대하여 여러 설계변수의 영향을 고려하여 주기거동에 의한 에너지 소산능력을 정확히 평가할 수 있는 방법이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 에너지 소산능력을 고려한 내진설계법에 대한 기초적인 연구로서, 최근 연구에서 개발된 에너지 소산능력 산정법을 이용한 철근콘크리트 전단벽 구조의 내진설계법을 개발하여, 기존의 내진설계법과 비교하였다. 제안된 설계법에서는 단면의 크기 및 형상, 축력, 철근비, 배근형태, 연성도 등과 같은 다양한 설계변수에 따른 에너지 소산능력의 변화를 정확히 고려하여 설계할 수 있다.

Fuel cell systems have to satisfy acceptable operating reliability, sufficient lifetime and price to enter the market in competition with existing products. Fuel cells are made up of complex element technologies and various problems related to the failure of the components can affect the reliability and safety of the system. This problem can be overcome by introducing a monitoring and supervisory control system in addition to automatic control to detect the failure of the fuel cell quickly and properly diagnose the performance degradation. For the fault detection and diagnosis of polymer electrolyte fuel cells, the model based method using the theoretical superposition value and the non-model based method of checking the signal tendency or the converted signal characteristic can be applied. The methods analyzed in this paper can contribute to the development of integrated monitoring and control technology for the whole system as well as the stack.

Hydrogen as an environmentally friendly energy carrier has received special attention to solving uncertainty about the presence of renewable energy and its dependence on time and weather conditions. This material can be prepared from different sources and in various ways. In previous studies, fossil fuels have been used in hydrogen production, but due to several limitations, especially the limitation of the access to this material in the not-too-distant future and the great problem of greenhouse gas emissions during hydrogen production methods. New methods based on renewable and green energy sources as energy drivers of hydrogen production have been considered. In these methods, water or biomass materials are used as the raw material for hydrogen production. In this article, after a brief review of different hydrogen production methods concerning the required raw material, these methods are examined and ranked from different aspects of economic, social, environmental, and energy and exergy analysis sustainability. In the following, the current position of hydrogen production is discussed. Finally, according to the introduced methods, their advantages, and disadvantages, solar electrolysis as a method of hydrogen production on a small scale and hydrogen production by thermochemical method on a large scale are introduced as the preferred methods.
