A well designed hybrid power system (HPS) can deliver electrical energy in a cost effective way. In this paper, model for HPS consisting of photo voltaic (PV) module and wind mill as renewable energy sources (RES) and solar lead acid battery as storage device connected to unidirectional grid is developed for peak demand reduction. Life time energy cost of the system is evaluated. One year hourly site condition and load pattern are taken into account for analysing the HPS. The optimal HPS is determined for least life time energy cost subject to the constraints like state of charge of the battery bank, dump load, renewable energy (RE) generation etc. Optimal solutions are also found out individually for PV module and wind mill. These three systems are compared to find out the most feasible combination. The results show that the HPS can deliver energy in an acceptable cost with reduced peak consumption from the grid. The proposed optimization algorithm is suitable for determining optimal HPS for desired location and load with least energy cost.

In this paper we present a new approach to estimate link travel speed based on the hybrid neuro-fuzzy network. It combines the fuzzy ART algorithm for structure learning and the backpropagation algorithm for parameter adaptation. At first, the fuzzy ART algorithm partitions the input/output space using the training data set in order to construct initial neuro-fuzzy inference network. After the initial network topology is completed, a backpropagation learning scheme is applied to optimize parameters of fuzzy membership functions. An initial neuro-fuzzy network can be applicable to any other link where the probe car data are available. This can be realized by the network adaptation and add/modify module. In the network adaptation module, a CBR(Case-Based Reasoning) approach is used. Various experiments show that proposed methodology has better performance for estimating link travel speed comparing to the existing method.

This paper demonstrates the performance of a metal-substrate power module with multiple fabricated chips for a high current electrical application, and evaluates the proposed module using a 1.5-kW sinusoidal brushless direct current (BLDC) motor. Specifically, the power module has a hybrid structure employing a single-layer heat-sink extensible metal board (Al board). A fabricated motor driver IC and trench gate DMOSFET (TDMOSFET) are implemented on the Al board, and the proper heat-sink size was designed under the operating conditions. The fabricated motor driver IC mainly operates as a speed controller under various load conditions, and as a multi-phase gate driver using an N-ch silicon MOSFET high-side drive scheme. A fabricated power TDMOSFET is also included in the fabricated power module for three-phase inverter operation. Using this proposed module, a BLDC motor is operated and evaluated under various pulse load tests, and our module is compared with a commercial MOSFET module in terms of the system efficiency and input current.

최근 레이저를 이용하여 전자 소자 및 모듈을 절단하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 레이저를 이용하여 LED 모듈을 초고속 절단하기 위한 기초 연구를 수행하였다. 특히 기존의 다이싱(dicing) saw의 절단 속도를 훨씬 능가하는 100 mm/s의 초고속 레이저 절단의 가능성을 검토하였다. 이를 위하여 LED 모듈의 구성 재료인 copper/ceramic 및 silicone/ceramic 이종 복합 기판을 제작하여 레이저 절단 후, 절단면의 표면 특성, 표면조도, 굽힘 강도를 다이싱 saw를 이용하여 절단한 샘플과 비교하였다. 복합 기판에 대한 최적의 레이저 절단 조건을 찾기 위하여, 세라믹 및 구리 단일 기판의 레이저 절단을 통하여 다양한 레이저 공정 조건들에 대한 영향 검토하였다. 절단면의 표면 특성이 가장 좋은 최적의 레이저 절단 조건은 Ar 보조 가스의 사용, 높은 레이저 파워 및 높은 보조 가스의 압력이었다. Copper/ceramic 및 silicone/ceramic 이종 복합 기판에 대하여 레이저 절단과 다이싱 saw로 절단한 기판의 절단면을 비교한 결과, 레이저로 절단된 기판이 다이싱 saw 절단에 비하여 표면이 거칠고 표면 특성이 약간 나쁘다. 레이저 절단면의 평균 표면조도는 약 $9{\mu}m$ 이며, 다이싱 saw로 절단된 절단면의 표면조도는 약 $4{\mu}m$ 이었다. 그러나 다이싱 절단의 절단 속도(3 mm/s)를 고려하면 레이저 절단면의 표면 morphology가 비교적 균일하고, 표면조도도 다이싱 절단의 경우와 큰 차이가 없기 때문에 어느 정도 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었다고 판단된다. 또한 레이저 절단된 기판의 굽힘 강도가 다이싱으로 절단된 기판의 굽힘 강도보다 동등하거나 약간 열세이었다. 그러나 향후 레이저의 절단 조건이 좀 더 최적화된다면 LED 모듈의 초고속 레이저 절단이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

가로등 및 방폭등용 고출력 LED 조명 시스템의 광원으로서, 다수의 LED 칩이 실장된 50와트급 LED 어레이 모듈을 chip-on-board형 고방열 세라믹-메탈 하이브리드 기판을 사용하여 제작하였다. 고방열 세라믹-메탈 하이브리드 기판은 고열전도 알루미늄 금속 열확산 기판에 저온소결용 글라스-세라믹 절연 페이스트와 은 전극 페이스트를 후막 스크린 공정에 의해 도포한 다음, 건조 후 $515^{\circ}C$에서 동시소성하여 LED 칩을 실장할 세라믹 절연층과 은전극 회로층을 형성하여 제조하였다. 이 하이브리드 기판의 방열특성 평가를 위한 비교 샘플로서 기존의 에폭시 기반 FR-4 복합수지로 만든 써멀비아형 PCB 기판에도 동일한 디자인의 LED 어레이 모듈을 제작한 다음, 다중채널 온도측정장치와 열저항 측정기로 방열특성을 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과, $4{\times}9$ type LED 어레이 모듈에서 세라믹-메탈 하이브리드 기판의 열저항은 써멀비아형 FR-4 기판에 비하여 약 1/3로 나타났으며, 이것은 곧 방열성능이 적어도 3배 이상 높은 것으로 볼 수 있다.

Glaucoma is one of the most common causes of blindness which is caused by increase of fluid pressure in the eye which damages the optic nerve and eventually causing vision loss. An automated technique to diagnose glaucoma disease can reduce the physicians’ effort in screening of Glaucoma in a person through the fundal retinal images. In this paper, optimal hyper analytic wavelet transform for Glaucoma detection technique from fundal retinal images is proposed. The optimal coefficients for transformation process are found out using the hybrid GSO-Cuckoo search algorithm. This technique consists of pre-processing module, optimal transformation module, feature extraction module and classification module. The implementation is carried out with MATLAB and the evaluation metrics employed are accuracy, sensitivity and specificity. Comparative analysis is carried out by comparing the hybrid GSO with the conventional GSO. The results reported in our paper show that the proposed technique has performed well and has achieved good evaluation metric values. Two 10- fold cross validated test runs are performed, yielding an average fitness of 91.13% and 96.2% accuracy with CGD-BPN (Conjugate Gradient Descent- Back Propagation Network) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) respectively. The techniques also gives high sensitivity and specificity values. The attained high evaluation metric values show the efficiency of detecting Glaucoma by the proposed technique.

Solar power generation, which is one of the methods of using solar energy, has a high possibility of practical implementation compared to other renewable energy power generation, and it has the characteristic that it can generate as much power as needed in necessary places. In addition, maintenance is easy, unmanned operation is possible, and power management can be performed more efficiently if operated in a hybrid method with existing electric energy. Therefore, in this study, numerical analysis using a computer program was performed to analyze the efficient operation and performance improvement of solar energy of the rotating condensing type solar LED street lamp. As a result, the two-axis tracking type could obtain 15.23 % more electricity per year than the fixed type, and additional auxiliary power generation was required for the fixed type by 19 % per year than the tracking type. As a result of computational fluid dynamics(CFD) simulation for PV module surface temperature prediction, the The surface temperature of the Photovoltaics(PV) module incident surface was predicted to be about 10℃ higher than that of the fixed type.

In this paper, we propose the HMM with the MIN module. Because initial and re-estimated variance vectors are important elements for performance in HMM recognition systems, we propose a method which compensates for the mismatched statistical feature of training and test data. The MIN module function is a differentiable function similar to the sigmoid function. Unlike a continuous density function, it does not include variance vectors of the data set. The proposed hybrid HMM/MIN module is a unified network in which the observation probability in the HMM is replaced by the MIN module neural network. The parameters in the unified network are re-estimated by the gradient descent method for the Maximum Likelihood (ML) criterion. In estimating parameters, the variance vector is not estimated because there is no variance element in the MIN module function. The experiment was performed to compare the performance of the proposed HMM and the conventional HMM. The experiment measured an isolated number for speaker independent recognition.

Based on innovative membrane module concepts reverse osmosis and nanofiltration are going to become important instruments in environmental engineering. One example is the Disc-Tube-module and its application for the purification of landfill leachate. Currently over 45 different landfills are using this ROCHEM DT-module, in some cases combined with the high pressure reverse osmosis versions of this module, operating at up to 120 bar and 200 bar. This state of the art membrane technology and the DTF-module for nanofiltration, developed by ROCHEM on the basis of the DT-module and RO-systems for the purification of landfill leachate, make possible in hybrid processes permeate recovery rates of more than 97 % with concentration factors up to 40.
