The purpose of this research is to introduce the technical standard of accident sequence precursor (ASP) analysis, and to propose a case study using the dynamic-probabilistic safety assessment (D-PSA) approach. The D-PSA approach can aid in the determination of high-risk/low-frequency accident scenarios from all potential scenarios. It can also be used to investigate the dynamic interaction between the physical state and the actions of the operator in an accident situation for risk quantification. This approach lends significant potential for safety analysis. Furthermore, the D-PSA approach provides a more realistic risk assessment by minimizing assumptions used in the conventional PSA model so-called the static-PSA model, which are relatively static in comparison. We performed risk quantification of a steam generator tube rupture (SGTR) accident using the dynamic event tree (DET) methodology, which is the most widely used methodology in D-PSA. The risk quantification results of D-PSA and S-PSA are compared and evaluated. Suggestions and recommendations for using D-PSA are described in order to provide a technical perspective.

Station blackout (SBO) risk is one of the most significant contributors to nuclear power plant risk. In this paper, the sequence probability formulas derived by the convolution approach are compared with those derived by the conventional event tree/fault tree (ET/FT) approach for the SBO situation in which emergency diesel generators fail to start. The comparison identifies what makes the ET/FT approach more conservative and raises the issue regarding the mission time of a turbine-driven auxiliary feedwater pump (TDP), which suggests a possible modeling improvement in the ET/FT approach. Monte Carlo simulations with up-to-date component reliability data validate the convolution approach. The sequence probability of an alternative alternating current diesel generator (AAC DG) failing to start and the TDP failing to operate owing to battery depletion contributes most to the SBO risk. The probability overestimation of the scenario in which the AAC DG fails to run and the TDP fails to operate owing to battery depletion contributes most to the SBO risk overestimation determined by the ET/FT approach. The modification of the TDP mission time renders the sequence probabilities determined by the ET/FT approach more consistent with those determined by the convolution approach.

This paper presents the current limit strategy of voltage controller of delta-connected H-bridge static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) under an unbalanced voltage fault event. When phase to ground fault happens, the feasibility to heighten the magnitude of sagging phase voltage is considered by using symmetric transformation method in delta-structure STATCOM. And the efficiency to cover the maximum physical current limit of switching device is considered by using vector analysis method that calculate the zero sequence current for balancing the cluster energy in delta connected H-bridge STATCOM. The result is simple and obvious. Only positive sequence current has to be used to support the unbalanced voltage sag. Although the relationship between combination of the negative sequence voltage with current and zero sequence current is nonlinear, the more negative sequence current is supplying, the larger zero sequence current is required. From the full-model STATCOM system simulation, zero sequence current demand is identified according to a ratio of positive and negative sequence compensating current. When only positive sequence current support voltage sag, the least zero sequence current is needed.

기존의 순차 패턴 마이닝 기법은 주로 시점 기반 이벤트를 중심으로 연구되었다. 그러나 실생활에는 시작 시점과 종료 시점과 같은 시간 간격을 갖는 인터벌 이벤트가 많이 발생한다. Allen 연산자를 기반으로 두 인터벌 이벤트 사이의 인터벌 패턴을 탐사하는 기존의 기법은 세 개 이상의 인터벌 이벤트 사이에서 인터벌 패턴이 여러 의미로 해석될 수 있는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이 논문은 인터벌 패턴 탐사에서 모호성 제거를 위한 효율적인 순차 탐색 마이닝 기법인 I_TPrefixSpan 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 인터벌 이벤트에 대한 이벤트 시퀀스를 생성함으로써 모호성을 제거하고 이벤트 시퀀스에 존재하는 항목만을 대상으로 순차 탐색함으로써 후보 집합 생성을 최소화 할 수 있다. 성능 평가를 통하여 제안하는 방법이 기존의 방법에 비하여 보다 효율적임을 보인다.

This paper suggests an event-based scenario manager capable of creating and editing a scenario for shipbuilding process simulation based on multibody dynamics. To configure various situation in shipyards and easily connect with multibody dynamics, the proposed method has two main concepts: an Actor and an Action List. The Actor represents the anatomic unit of action in the multibody dynamics and can be connected to a specific component of the dynamics kernel such as the body and joint. The user can make a scenario up by combining the actors. The Action List contains information for arranging and executing the actors. Since the shipbuilding process is a kind of event-based sequence, all simulation models were configured using Discrete EVent System Specification (DEVS) formalism. The proposed method was applied to simulations of various operations in shipyards such as lifting and erection of a block and heavy load lifting operation using multiple cranes.

The purpose of this paper is to conduct ETA on six items of ESS: the whole system, battery, BMS, PCS, ESS and cable. To achieve that, ESS work flow and its components are categorized. Based on performance, human, environmental, management, and safety, this paper drew initiation events (IE) and end states (ES). ETA is applied to the main functions of each item, and the end states that may occur in one initiation event are suggested. In addition, detailed classification was performed to induce various end states on the basis of the suggested initiation events ; loss of grid electricity of ESS, loss of battery electricity(DC) of battery, impairment of electric function of BMS, loss of grid electricity(AC) of PCS, loss of data of EMS, Mechanical damage of cable, event sequence analysis conducted on the basis of event trees. If the suggested IEs and ESs are applied on the basis of ESS event cases, it is expected to prevent the same kinds of accident and operate ESS safely.

The present study is focused on the small scale turbulent mixing processes in the scalar field. In order to deal with molecular mixing in turbulent flow, the linear eddy model is addressed. In each realization, the molecular mixing term is implemented deterministically, and turbulent stirring is represented by a sequence of instantaneous, statistically independent rearrangement event called by triplet map. The LEM approach is applied with relatively simple conditions. The characteristics of scalar mixing and PDF profiles are addressed in detail.

A single fire event within a fire area can cause multiple initiating events considered in internal events probabilistic safety assessment (PSA). For an example, a fire event in turbine building fire area can cause a loss of the main feed-water and loss of off-site power initiating events. This fire initiating event could result in special plant responses beyond the scope of the internal events PSA model. One approach to address a fire initiating event is to develop a specific fire event tree. However, the development of a specific fire event tree is difficult since the number of fire event trees may be several hundreds or more. Thus, internal fire events PSA model has been generally constructed by modifications of the pre-developed internal events PSA model. New accident sequence logics not covered in the internal events PSA model are separately developed to incorporate them into the fire PSA model. Recently, many fire PSA models have fire induced initiating event fault trees not shown in an internal event PSA model. Up to now, there has been no analytical comparative study on the constructions of fire events PSA model using internal events PSA model with and without fault trees of initiating events. In this study, the changing process of internal events PSA model to fire events PSA model is analytically presented and discussed.

최근 스마트 기기의 보급으로 자유롭게 비디오 컨텐츠를 생성하고 이를 빠르고 편리하게 공유할 수 있는 네트워크 환경이 갖추어지면서, 퍼스널 비디오가 급증하고 있다. 그러나, 퍼스널 비디오는 비디오라는 특성 상 멀티 모달리티로 구성되어 있으면서 데이터가 시간의 흐름에 따라 변화하기 때문에 이벤트 분류를 할 때 이에 대한 고려가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 비디오 내의 멀티 모달리티들로부터 고수준의 특징을 추출하여 시간 순으로 재배열한 것을 바탕으로 모달리티 사이의 연관관계를 Deep Neural Network(DNN)으로 학습하여 퍼스널 비디오 이벤트를 분류하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 비디오에 내포된 이미지와 오디오를 시간적으로 동기화하여 추출한 후 GoogLeNet과 Multi-Layer Perceptron(MLP)을 이용하여 각각 고수준 정보를 추출한다. 그리고 이들을 비디오에 표현된 시간순으로 재 배열하여 비디오 한 편당 하나의 특징으로 재 생성하고 이를 바탕으로 학습한 DNN을 이용하여 퍼스널 비디오 이벤트를 분류한다.
