In this paper, an optimal power distribution algorithm is proposed for the small electric vehicle with front in-line and rear in-wheel motors. First, it is assumed that the vehicle driving torque and velocity are given conditions. And, an optimal problem is defined that finding the front and rear motor torques which minimizes the battery power. From the above optimization problem, the optimized front-rear motor torque distribution map is obtained. And, the vehicle simulations are performed to verify the performance of the optimal power distribution algorithm which is proposed in this study. The simulations are performed based on the federal urban driving schedule for two cases which are constant ratio power distribution, and optimal power distribution. From the simulation results, it is found that the optimal power distribution shows the 6.3% smaller battery energy consumption than the constant ratio power distribution.

Optimal routing of distribution networks can be attained by keeping the line power capacity limit to handle load requirements, acceptable voltage at customer loads, and the reliability indices such as SAIFI, SAIDI, CAIDI, and ASAI limits. This method is composed of optimal loss reduction and optimal reliability cost reduction. The former is solved relating to the conductor resistance of all alternative routes, and the latter is solved relating to the failure rate and duration of each alternative route. The routing considering optimal loss only and both optimal loss and optimal reliability cost are compared in this paper. The case studies with 10 and 24 bus distribution networks showed that reliability cost should be considered as well as loss reduction to achieve the optimal routing in the distribution networks.

The optimal operation in distribution system is to select tie switches considering important elements(Load balance, Loss minimization, Voltage drop, Restoration index..) in distribution system. Optimal Tie Switches Selection is very important in operation of distribution system because that is closely related with efficiency and reliability. In this paper, a new algorithm considering important elements is proposed to find optimal location of tie switches. In the case study, the proposed algorithm has been testified using real distribution network of KEPCO for verifying algorithm and complex network for applying future distribution network.

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to determine optimal replacement age using non-informative prior information and Bayesian method. Methods: We propose a novel approach using Bayesian method to determine the optimal replacement age in block replacement policy by defining the prior probability with data on failure time and repair time. The Marcov Chain Monte Carlo simulation is used to investigate the asymptotic distribution of posterior parameters. Results: An optimal replacement age of block replacement policy is determined which minimizes cost and nonoperating time when no information on prior distribution of parameters is given. Conclusion: We find the posterior distribution of parameters when lack of information on prior distribution, so that the optimal replacement age which minimizes the total cost and maximizes the total values is determined.

This paper presents a problem that reconfigure distribution power system using branch exchange method. Optimal reconfiguration problem calculates line loss, voltage condition about system states of all situations that become different according to line On/off status, and search for optimum composition of these. However, result is difficult to be calculated fast. Because radiated operation condition of system is satisfied using many connection and sectionalize switches in the distribution power system. Therefore, in this paper, optimization method for reducing system total loss and satisfying operating condition of radial and constraints condition of voltage is proposed using the fastest branch exchange. And optimal solution at branch exchange algorithm can be wrong estimated to local optimal solution according to initial operating state. Considering this particular, an initial operating point algorithm is added and this paper showed that optimal solution arrives at global optimal solution.

The probability distribution of the repair process should be determined to choose the optimal spare level of a weapon system with a queueing model. Though most weapon systems have a multi-step repair process, previous studies use the exponential distribution for the multi-step repair process. But the PH distribution is more appropriate for this case. We utilize the PH distribution on a queueing model and solve it with MGM(Matrix Geometric Method). We derive the optimal spare level using the PH distribution and show the difference of results between the PH and exponential distribution.

Thermoforming is one of the most versatile and economical processes available for the manufacturing polymer products. The drawback of thermoforming is difficult to get uniform thickness of final products. For the distribution of thickness strongly depends on the temperature distribution of sheet, the adjustment of heater power is very important In this paper, an optimization study for getting uniform temperature distribution was carried out using dual optimization steps. At first, the steady state optimal distribution of heater power is searched by numerical optimization to get uniform temperature of sheet surface. In the second step, time-dependent optimal heater inputs have been found out to decrease the temperature difference through the direction of thickness using Rseponse Surface Method and D-optimal method. The optimization results show that the time-dependent optimal heater power distribution gives acceptable uniform sheet temperature in the field of forming temperature..

항로는 선박의 통항이 빈번하고 특히, 항로의 입구부는 선박의 출입이 잦아 사고의 위험이 높은 지역이지만, 항로 단면에서의 통항분포에만 초점을 맞춘 연구가 다수였으며, 항로 통항 선박간의 시간분포에 대한 연구는 부족하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 대상항로에서의 통항선박간의 시간 최적분포를 분석하기 위해서 1주일간의 선박의 통항현황을 조사하였다. 통항현황을 바탕으로 항로 입구부에 1개의 Gate line을 선정하고, Gate line을 통과하는 선박을 입출항, 교통량으로 구분하여 분석하였다. 대상항로의 해상교통 분석 자료를 바탕으로 입출항과 교통량으로 구분하여 항로 통항 선박간의 시간 최적 확률분포를 분석하였다. 최적 확률분포를 분석하기 위하여 경계분포, 비경계분포, 비음수분포, 고급분포로 구분하여 총 31개의 확률분포를 적용하였으며, 최적 확률분포 상위 3개를 분석하기 위하여 KS 검정을 사용하였다. 분석 결과 대상항로에서 통항 선박간의 최적 시간 확률분포는 Wakeby 분포로 분석되었으며, 도로교통 등의 선행연구에서 사용한 비음수 분포와 다르게 고급분포가 대부분을 차지하는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 향후 항로 통항 선박간의 시간 분포를 적용함에 있어 다른 교통 분야의 선행연구에서 사용한 대표적인 확률분포를 적용하는 것은 적합하지 않는 것으로 판단된다. 또한 실제 교통조사 시 통항 선박간의 거리와 최적 확률분포로 추정한 거리가 비교적 유사함을 확인하였다. 다만 본 연구는 대표적인 1개의 항로를 분석한 만큼 향후 다양한 항로에서의 통항 선박간의 시간간격 및 교통용량 산정 등의 후속연구가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.
