The unified power flow controller(UPFC) is one of the most effective devices in the FACTS family. This paper concerns about a filtering technique for reducing the computer calculation to determine the optimal location of UPFC in a power system. The sensitivities of the power generation cost for UPFC control parameters are evaluated. This technique requires that only one optimal power flow is run to get UPFC sensitivities for all possible transmission lines. To find out a optimal locating of a single UPFC in power system, an ideal transformer model which consists of a complex turns ratio and a variable shunt admittance was used. In this model, the UPFC control variables do not depend on UPFC input and output currents and voltages. The sensitivity method was tested on a 5-bus system derived from the IEEE 14-bus system and IEEE 14-bus system to establish its effectiveness.

Maximum single bus throughput of standard IEEE 802.6 DQDB(Distributed Queue Dual Bus) is not obtained over 1. Therefore, lots of studies for improving bus throughput have done by QA slot preuse/reuse. We propose three calculation cethods for network's utilization with preuse/reuse scheme based on erasure nodes. One is calculation method by traffic density function, other is calculation method for obtaining maximum throughput. The other is calculation method using probability concept which follows real DQDB operation mechanisms. The calculated throughputs are compared with each others. The results shows some favorite phenomena. The proposed calculation methods can be casily expanded in mumber of nodes or in number of erasure nodes.

This paper presents a modified Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation Technique (SVPWM), which solves the well-known problem of voltage imbalance in the capacitors of a single-phase multilevel inverter. The proposed solution is based on the measurement of DC voltage levels at each capacitor of the inverter DC bus. The measurements are then used to adjust the size of the active vectors within the SVPWM algorithm to keep the voltage waveform sinusoidal regardless of any voltage imbalance on the DC link capacitors. When a voltage deviation exceeds a predetermined hysteresis band, the correspondent voltage vector is restricted to restore the voltage level to an acceptable threshold. Hence, the need for external voltage regulators for the voltage capacitors is eliminated. The functionality of the proposed algorithm is successfully demonstrated through simulations and experiments on a grid tied application.

This paper proposes a new single-stage, single-switch AC/DC converter based on the boost power factor correction (PFC) cell. The converter offers both high power factor and high efficiency. To reduce the dc voltage on the energy storage capacitor, the dc bus voltage feedback method was used. A 100W (5V/20A) prototype was built and tested to show the validity of the proposed converter.

Kyeonggi Provincial Government is considering double decker bus service to solve the problem of heavy rush hour traffic. However, the height-to-width ratio is more than 1.16 times larger than that of a general high-speed single decker bus, and the center of gravity is higher. This could cause driving stability problems, such as turnover and breakaway from the lane, especially under strong side-wind conditions at high speed. In this numerical study, the driving characteristics of a model double decker bus were reviewed under side-wind and superelevation conditions at high driving speed. The rolling, pitching, and yawing moment of the model bus were calculated with CFD numerical simulation, and the results were compared to the recovery angular moments of the model bus to evaluate the dynamic stability under given driving conditions. As the model vehicle moves on a straight level road, it is stable under any side-wind conditions. However, on a curved road under side-wind conditions, it could reach unstable conditions dynamically. There is a chance that the bus will turn over when it moves on a curved road with a radius of gyration less than 100 m under side-wind (15 m/s). However, there is a very small chance of breakaway from the lane under any driving conditions.

In order to enhance public transportation and to maintain information credibility, improvement of accuracy regarding route and positional information of public transport is very significant. There have been a variety of methods using GPS to measure accuracy of location-based services. However, the researches of evaluation regarding kinematic position of linear objects measured by vehicle/kinematic GPS are still insufficient. That's why our paper aims to suggest method of evaluation accuracy on a real-time bus route surveyed by GPS by SBM(Single Buffering Method). To make it come true, we compared the findings on the static and dynamic positioning by using PP(Point Positioning), DGPS and GPS/INS integrated systems and analyzed the accuracy and error effects among them, focusing on Anyang city. Consequently, we can find out that in case of P.P. comparing positioning accuracy between RTK DGPS and GPS/INS, both of them have survey result within a margin of error of 5m. More importantly, we can evaluate positional accuracy of each GPS system based on the work provision of a public survey such as error for P.P.(14.5m, 18.1m), DGPS(16.9m, 18.5m), and GPS/INS(18.4m, 18.5m). We are expecting that proposed method in our paper can be utilized in a wide range of categories such as feasibility testing of GPS field survey and high accuracy of positioning for Bus Information System.

The aim of this study is to empirically identify the differentiating characteristics of determinant factors on sing-person households' commuting mode choice compared to multi-person households' one in order to establish the customized police directions to decrease private car use in commuting. While the study use the 2% sample survey data on the population and housing in 2015, it employ multinomial logit models on relative choice probability of such alternative commuting modes as bus, subway or rail, and walking, rather than driving. As potential determinant factors, the study employs demographic, socio-economic, and housing and residential one for both models of single-person and multi-person households. The study finds that the behavior of commuting mode choice has distinctive difference by gender, marriage status, physical activity constraint, job type, residential period in current housing of the single-person household's workers compared to the multi-person households' ones. Based on the findings, the study deduce ten commuting policy directions customized for the single-person household.
