Warm or waste water discharged from offshore-based facilities often causes environmental polution as it is transported to coastal area due to tidal actions. In this research a floating-type current control structure is introduced in order to reduce the pollutant spreading in the coastal area. Effectivenss of the structure is investigated through the numerical experiment which is based on a 3-D finite difference multi-level scheme. The warm-water spreading in the bay is reduced when the draft of the structure increases and its optimum draft is found to be between 0.25h and 0.65h, where h is the water depth. The proposed structure is also tested in the Gohyun Bay and it ts proven to be applied to controllling pollutant spreading if its draft is properly chosen.

This paper discusses the composition of the theory of reinforcement learning, which is applied in real-time learning, and evolutionary strategy, which proves its the superiority in the finding of the optimal solution at the off-line learning method. The individuals are reduced in order to learn the evolutionary strategy in real-time, and new method that guarantee the convergence of evolutionary mutations are proposed. It possible to control the control object varied as time changes. As the state value of the control object is generated, applied evolutionary strategy each sampling time because the learning process of an estimation, selection, mutation in real-time. These algorithms can be applied, the people who do not have knowledge about the technical tuning of dynamic systems could design the controller or problems in which the characteristics of the system dynamics are slightly varied as time changes. In the future, studies are needed on the proof of the theory through experiments and the characteristic considerations of the robustness against the outside disturbances.

In this paper, direct power control system for three-phase PFC AC/DC converter without the source voltage sensors is proposed. The sinusoidal input current and unity effective power factor are realised based on the estimated flux in the observer. Both active and reactive power calculated using estimated flux. The estimation of flux is performed based on the reduced-order virtual flux observer using the actual currents and the command control voltage. Moreover, source voltage sensors are replaced by a estimated flux. DC output voltage has been compensated by DC output ripple voltage estimation algorithm. The active and reactive powers estimation are performed based on the estimated flux and Phase angle. The proposed algorithm is verified through simulation and experiment.

This paper proposes an effective model predictive current control (MPCC) that involves using 10 virtual voltage vectors to reduce the current harmonics and common-mode voltage (CMV) for a two-level five-phase voltage source inverter (VSI). In the proposed scheme, 10 virtual voltage vectors are included to reduce the CMV and low-order current harmonics. These virtual voltage vectors are employed as the input control set for the MPCC. Among the 10 virtual voltage vectors, two are applied throughout the whole sampling period to reduce current ripples. The two selected virtual voltage vectors are based on location information of the reference voltage vector, and their duration times are calculated using a simple algorithm. This significantly reduces the computational burden. Simulation and experimental results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

This research investigates the potential of Adaptive TMDs for tall building damping. The Adaptive TMD under consideration is based on real-time controlled hydraulic dampers generating purely dissipative control forces. The control approach is designed to enhance the Adaptive TMD efficiency for moderate wind loads with return periods below 50 years. The resulting enhanced TMD efficiency is used to reduce the pendulum mass by 15% compared to the passive TMD while still guaranteeing the acceleration limits of the one and ten year return period winds. Furthermore, the adaptive control approach is designed to disproportionally increase the controlled damping force at wind loads with return periods of 50 years and more in order to reduce the maximum relative motion of the Adaptive TMD with only 85% pendulum mass. Compared to the passive TMD with 100% pendulum mass the maximum relative motion is reduced by 20%. Both the pendulum mass reduction and the maximum relative motion reduction significantly reduce the foot print of the Adaptive TMD which is highly desirable from the economic point of view.

석탄화력발전소는 저부하에서 효율 향상을 위해 변압운전으로, 고부하에서는 정압으로 운전하는 복합변압운전 방식으로 운전하고 있으며, 복합변압운전에는 2밸브 및 3밸브 전개모드로 구분되어 운영되고 있다. 각 발전소는 제작사 권고에 따라 터빈제어밸브 모드를 선택하여 운전하고 있으나 최적의 변압운전 부하범위로 운전되고 있지 않고, 각 발전소별 부하범위 또한 상이하게 구성 되어있다. 최적의 변압운전 부하범위로 설정되지 않으면 터빈밸브 교축 손실 발생에 따른 고압터빈 내부효율 저하가 발생되어 플랜트 효율이 저하된다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위해 본 논문에서는 터빈제어밸브 모드별 최적의 변압운전 부하 범위를 개선하기 위해 각 부하별 열 성능 분석 방법을 통해 최적의 부하범위를 선정하고자 한다.

우리나라의 건설안전 관리시스템은 그동안 꾸준히 개선되어 왔으나 재해강도율은 감소되지 않고 있고 건설산업의 안전수준도 향상되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 재해강도율을 감소시키기 위해서는 건설현장에서의 안전관리도 중요하지만 안전설계 의무화 및 설계 안전성 평가의 도입이나 건설업 산업안전보건관리비의 효과적인 사용방안 등 제도적인 틀을 개선하는 것이 필요하다. 그 중 안전관리비는 낙찰률에 따라 당초 설계금액보다 줄어드는 문제와 현장에서 사용시 안전관리자 등의 인건비에 비해 안전시설비용이 상대적으로 적게 집행되는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구는 건설업 재해강도율이 감소하지 않는 주요원인을 살펴보고 그 원인을 제거할 수 있는 방안으로 안전관리비와 관련된 문제점 분석을 통해 효과적인 개선방안을 제시함으로써 건설현장의 재해강도율을 낮추는데 기여하고자 한다.

메가골조시스템은 사용되는 구조재료를 절약하면서도 구조물의 강성을 효과적으로 높일 수 있는 장점 때문에 고층건물의 설계에 많이 사용되고 있다. 이러한 메가골조시스템이 주로 적용되고 있는 초고층건물의 구조설계에서는 횡하중에 대한 거주자의 불안감을 최소화시키는 것이 주요한 관심사중의 하나이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 메가골조구조물의 사용성을 향상시키기 위한 방법으로 일반적인 수동 TMD의 제어성능을 개선한 준능동 TMD(STMD)를 사용하였다. 이를 위하여 TMD에서 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 수동감쇠기 대신 준능동 MR 감쇠기를 사용하여 STMD를 구성하였다. 메가골조구조물의 일반적인 유한요소해석모델은 매우 많은 수의 자유도로 구성되어 있기 때문에 원형모델을 사용하여 STMD의 제어성능을 검토하는 것은 현실적으로 불가능하다. 따라서 메가골조구조물의 동적 거동을 정확하게 표현할 수 있는 최소한의 자유도를 가진 응축모델을 행렬응축기법을 이용하여 제안하였다. 또한 일반적인 행렬응축기법의 효율성을 향상시키기 위하여 메가골조구조물의 특성을 활용한 다단계 행렬응축기법을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 응축모델을 사용한 제어의 효율성과 정확성 및 메가골조구조물에 대한 STMD의 제어성능을 예제해석을 통하여 검증하였다.

This study presents the estimation method for the optimal capacity of BESS(Battery Energy Storage System) in order to reduce the electric charges of common consumer. The daily optimal charge and discharge plan of BESS which satisfies the given constraints is established using linear programming through the change of rated output/rated capacity of the time that shows the electric charges in the highest reduced rate has been selected. There will be a problem to compare only reduced rate because the bigger the rated capacity, the more reduced rate is increased. Therefore, rated output/rated capacity of the time when the reduced amount of electric charges for a year is higher than the investment cost of BESS was selected.

This paper deals with the design and implementation of an efficient topology for cascaded multilevel inverters with reduced part counts. In the proposed design, a well-established basic unit is first developed. The series extension of this unit results in the formation of the proposed multilevel inverter. The proposed design minimizes the number of power electronic components including insulated-gate bipolar transistors and gate driver circuits, which in turn cuts down the size of the inverter assembly and reduces the operating power losses. An explicit control strategy with enhanced device efficiency is also acquired. Thus, the part count reductions enhance not only the economical merits but also the technical features of the entire system. In order to accomplish the desired operational aspects, three algorithms are considered to determine the magnitudes of the dc voltage sources effectively. The proposed topology is compared with the conventional cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter topology, to reflect the merits of the presented structure. In continue, both the analytical and experimental results of a cascaded 31-level structure are analyzed. The obtained results are discussed in depth, and the exemplary performance of the proposed structure is corroborated.
