Nonlinear equations of structures are generally solved numerically by the iterative solution of linear equations. However, this iterative procedure diverges when the tangent stiffness is ill-conditioned which occurs near limit points. In other words, a major challenge with simple iterative methods is failure caused by a singular or near singular Jacobian matrix. In this paper, using the Newton-Raphson algorithm based on Davidenko's equations, the iterations can traverse the limit point without difficulty. It is argued that the propose algorithm may be both more computationally efficient and more robust compared to the other algorithm when tracing path through severe nonlinearities such as those associated with structural collapse. Two frames are analyzed using the proposed algorithm and the results are compared with the previous methods. The ability of the proposed method, particularly for tracing the limit points, is demonstrated by those numerical examples.

This paper is a study on the reduction of computation time in case of nonlinear magnetic field analysis by finite element method and Newton-Raphson method. For the purpose, the nonlinear convergence equation is computed by the conjugate gradient method which is known to be applicable to symmetric positive definite matrix equations only. As the results, we can not prove mathematically that the system Jacobian is positive definite, but when we applied this method, the diverging case did not occur. And the computation time is reduced by 25-55% and 15-45% in comparison with the case of direct and successive over-relaxation method, respectively. Therefore, we proved the utility of conjugate gradient method.

The target of the ULTC(Under Load Tap Changer) control purpose is to minimize the operation number of the tap of the ULTC doing the error voltage which is the difference between the measured bus voltage End the reference bus voltage of the receiving end becomes less than the tolerance limits. The existing ULTC control method controls each ULTC considering only its bus voltage of the receiving end. However, this method did not cons der the coordinated control of the ULTCs of the system. In this paper, I proposed a coordinated control of the ULTC in :he loop power system using the Jacobian matrix. To show the validity of the proposed method, I made simulations for three cases: no action of the ULTC, the control of the ULTC by the existing control method, and the control of the ULTC by the coordinated control among the ULTCs of the system. The simulation result shows that the proposed method has more improvement of the operation of the ULTC than other methods.

A finite element implementation of the modified compression field theory (MCFT) using a tangential formulation is presented in this work. Previous work reported on implementations of MCFT has concentrated mainly on secant formulations. This work describes details of the implementation of a modular algorithmic structure of a reinforced concrete constitutive model in nonlinear finite element schemes that use a Jacobian matrix in the solution of the nonlinear system of algebraic equations. The implementation was verified and validated using experimental and analytical data reported in the literature. The developed algorithm, which converges accurately and quickly, can be easily implemented in any finite element code.

This paper presents a new practical method for optimal active and reactive power control for the economic operation in electrical power system, and the programs are developed for digital computer solution. The major features and techniques of this paper are as follows: 1) The method is presented for finding the equivalent active power balance equation applying the sparse Jacobian matrix of power flow equation instead of using B constant as active power balance equation considering transmission loss, and thus for determining directly optimal active power allocation berween generator unitw satisfying the equality and inequality constraints. 2) The method is proposed for solving directly the optimum economim dispatch problem without using gradient method and penalty function for both active and reactive power control. As a result, the computing time are reduced and convergence characteristic is remarkably improved. 3) Unlike most of conventional methods which adopt the transmission loss as a objective function for reactive power control, the total fuel cost of themal power plant is adopted as objective function for both active and reactive power control. consequently, more reasonable and economic profit can be achieved.

Object-oriented programming is a solution for problems in the development, maintenance, and update of large software such as power system analysis software. However, many applications in the electrical industry critically depend on the computational efficiency of the implementation. In order to be flexible and reduce the computation time, this paper represents an efficient method for constructing a Jacobian matrix and for factorizing it, and designs the class hierarchy for power system. This method is applied to four different power systems for load flow calculation. The performance of the object-oriented program developed in C++ is assessed in computer simulation.

This paper deals with direct voltage stability analysis using a power system energy function. The structure preserved energy function is proposed as an energy function for voltage stability analysis. With the use of the proposed energy function voltage collapse conditions are derived, which yields the exactly same results with the Jacobian matrix approach. The voltage collapse phenomenon is analyzed by several methods, which shows that all of the methods produce the same voltage condition. This study also investigates the voltage collapse dynamics by using the proposed energy function. As a result, it has been found that the voltage collapse can be classified into two categories: static and dynamic instablilties which have quite different behaviors. In addition a new method is presented to calculate the power capacity limit of transmission lines with respect to voltage stability. The proposed method is tested for a 2-bus sample system, which shows the characteristics of voltage collapse phenomenon via the energy function.

Hopf and saddle-node bifurcation have been recognized as some of the reasons for voltage stability problems in a variety of power system models. Local bifurcations are detected by monitoring the eigenvalues of the current operating point. Therefore, many papers have used the methods using the eigenvalues. However, this paper discusses the bifurcations without calculating the eigenvalues as the system parameters vary In the 3 node system. Instead of calculating the eigenvalues, we use directly the coefficients of characteristic equation of Jacobian matrix. Also, the coefficients are used as stability index.

In this paper, we describe the OGY method that convert the motion on a chaotic attractor to attracting time periodic motion by malting only small perturbations of a control parameter. The OGY method is illustrated by application to the control of the chaotic motion in chaotic attractor to happen at the famous Logistic map and Henon map and confirm it by making periodic motion. We apply it the chaotic motion at the behavior of the thin beam under periodic torsional base-excitation, and this chaotic motion is made the periodic motion by numerical experiment in the time evaluation on this chaotic motion. We apply the OGY method with the Jacobian matrix to control the chaotic motion to the periodic motion.

본 논문은 차원이 큰 행렬 연산 때문에 많은 계산 시간을 필요로 하는 ET 영상 복원 응용의 속도를 개선하기 위하여 3 대의 PC로 구성된 클러스터를 구축하고 복원 과정 중 가장 많은 시간을 차지하는 자코비언 행렬 계산에 대해 병렬 계산 기법을 제시한다. 각 노드는 리눅스 운영체제, MPI, 산술 계산 라이브러리 등을 탑재하여 C 언어로 옹용이 작성될 수 있으며 자코비언 행렬은 각 계산 루프의 데이터 독립성이 강하므로 병렬 계산의 장점을 최대화 할 수 있다. 구현된 클러스터 자코비언 프로그램은 주어진 인자를 분석하여 MPI 프리미티브에 의해 각각의 노드에 분배시키고 각 노드들로 하여금 자신의 계산 라이브러리를 이용하여 계산하게 한 다음 이 부분 결과를 모아 최종적인 자코비언 행렬을 생성한다. 이 프로그램을 클러스터에서 수행시키고 그 수행시간을 측정한 결과 기존의 자코비언 프로그램에 비해 최대 40% 까지 수행시간을 단축시킬 수 있었으며 추후 행렬의 차원이 증가할 경우 클러스터 컴퓨팅에 의한 성능 개선을 기할 수 있다.
