본 연구에서는 단주기파랑과 고립파를 동시에 저감시키기 위해 Bragg공진현상으로부터 입사파랑에너지를 포획하여 배후로 전달되는 파랑에너지의 저감을 도모할 수 있는 2열 불투과성 사각형 잠제(이하에서는 2열잠제로 칭함)의 파랑제어능을 수치적으로 검토하였다. 단주기파랑에 대해서는 Green공식에 기초한 경계적분방정식법을, 고립파에 대해서는 3차원수치파동수로를 이용하는 3차원혼상류해석법을 각각 적용하였고, 기존의 수치해석결과 및 고립파의 특성과 비교·분석하여 본 수치해석법의 타당성을 검증하였다. 이로부터 단주기파랑의 제어에 있어서 최소반사율을 나타내는 2열잠제의 조건을 검토하였고, 고립파에 대해서는 2열잠제의 천단고, 천단폭, 이격거리 및 입사파고 등을 변화시켜 1열 불투과성 사각형 잠제(이하에서는 1열잠제로 칭함)에 의한 결과와의 대비를 통하여 고립파의 3차원파랑제어특성을 검토하였다. 수치해석결과는 1열잠제보다 단면적이 훨씬 적은(천단고는 동일함) 2열잠제가 단주기파랑 및 고립파를 훨씬 효율적으로 제어하며, 특히 본 연구의 조건하에서 2열잠제의 경우가 1열잠제에 비해 약 58%정도의 부가적인 파고저감효과를 나타내었다.

Offshore structures are subjected to wave, wind, and earthquake loads. The failure of offshore structures can cause sea pollution, as well as losses of property and lives. Therefore, safety of the structure is an important issue. The reduction of the dynamic response of offshore towers, subjected wind generated random ocean waves, is a critical problem with respect to serviceability, fatigue life and safety of the structure. In this paper, a structural control method is proposed to control the vibration of offshore structures by the probabilistic neural network (PNN). The state vectors of the structure and control forces are used for training patterns of the PNN, in which control forces are prepared by linear quadratic regulator (LQR) control algorithm. The proposed algorithm is applied to a fixed offshore structure under random ocean waves. Active control of the fixed offshore structure using the PNN control algorithm shows good results.

In this paper, a new PWM method is proposed to reduce the input current harmonics of 3 phase PWM rectifier. In the conventional carrier comparison PWM method, a triangular wave is generally used as the carrier wave. However, the large d-axis current ripple by the triangle carrier wave may be a source of large input current THD(Total Harmonic Distortion). In this paper, a new carrier comparison PWM method with saw tooth wave is proposed. Depending on the sector where the voltage command vector places, one of the rising or falling saw tooth wave is selected. To reduce the switching losses of the saw tooth carrier PWM, the discontinuous PWM is also presented. The proposed PWM method can reduce the d-axis current ripple as well as the switching losses. The performance of the conventional and proposed PWM methods is verified by the simulation and experimental results.

This study examined the effects of buoy shape and Nonlinear Froude-Krylov force (NFK) on a heaving-buoy-type Wave Energy Converter (WEC). Based on the Maclaurin expansion, the theoretical solutions of the NFK were derived for three different buoy shapes; hemispheric buoy, circular vertical cylinder, and truncated conical cylinder. A hydraulic power take-off system was adopted, and the latching control strategy was applied to maximize the extracted power from the WEC. The nonlinear effects of the Froude-Krylov force and restoring force on the heaving point absorber were investigated by comparing the heave Response Amplitude Operator (RAO) and time-averaged power extraction. The results showed that the conventional linear analyses were overestimated by up to 50% under the high amplitude wave condition. The latching control strategy was the most effective when peak wave period of regular or irregular wave was 0.4-0.45 times the heave natural period of the buoy.

This paper deals with the secondary excited induction generator applied to random wave input generation system. As it is preferred to stabilize the output voltage and frequency in the constant level, microcomputer controlled CSI connected to the secondary windings supplies the secondary current with slip frequency. For testing this method, the input torque simulator is constructed, according to the power flow analysis. The experimental and numerical results show the advantage of secondary excited induction generator system for the random input wave generation system.

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are modulated using a square wave pulse sequence for flicker prevention and dimming control in visible light communication (VLC). In a VLC transmitter, the high and low bits of the non-return-to-zero (NRZ) data are converted to two square waves of different frequencies, which continue for a finite time defined by the fill ratio in an NRZ bit time. As the average optical power was kept constant and independent of data transmission, the LED was flicker-free. Dimming control is carried out by changing the fill ratio of the square wave in the NRZ bit time. In the experiments, the illumination of the LED light was controlled in the range of approximately 19.2% to 96.2% of the continuous square wave modulated LED light. In the VLC receiver, a high-pass filter combined with a latch circuit was used to recover the transmitted signal while preventing noise interference from adjacent lighting lamps.

10 MW급의 파력-해상풍력 복합발전 플랫폼 설치해역으로 고려되고 있는 차귀도 해역에서 측정된 파랑정보를 이용하여 파랑스펙트럼을 구하고, 이로부터 생성된 불규칙파에 따라 수직 운동하는 파력발전기에 Sheng et al.(2015)이 제안한 래칭 제어기법을 적용하였다. 래칭 시간을 정할 때 필요한 입사파의 주기로 불규칙파의 통계 대푯값인 피크 주기를 사용하였다. 래칭 제어기법을 불규칙파중 부이의 시간영역 해석에 적용한 결과, 약 50%의 추출파워의 증가를 가져왔다.

차량통신은 통신시스템과 차량산업을 융합하여 ITS(Intelligent Transport Systems) 분야에서 다양한 서비스 제공을 위해 고려되어 왔다. 일반적으로 차량통신은 WAVE(Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments)라고 알려져 있는 IEEE 802.11p/1609표준을 채택하여 vehicle-to-vehicle(V2V)와 vehicle-to-infra(V2I) 통신에 이용된다. WAVE 시스템은 OFDM(Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) 신호를 5.835~5.925 GHz대의 주파수를 사용하여 전송하는 시스템이다. 본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11p 표준에 따라 구현한 WAVE 시스템의 MAC(Media Access Control)단에서 채널 모니터링을 32 비트 처리한 다음 데이터를 수신하여 성능을 평가하였다. 실제 고속도로에서 OBU(On Board Unit)로 구성된 테스트베드를 구축하고, OBU간에 WSM(WAVE Short Message)을 무선으로 송수신한 다음, 프레임 당 채널 점유 시간과 처리량을 산출하였다.

Background: Median F-wave latencies are physiologically shorter than ulnar latencies, but they are often longer relative to ulnar latencies in carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). This study aimed to investigate the value of absolute F-waves and relative latency changes compared to ulnar latencies in the diagnosis of CTS. Methods: F-wave latencies of median and ulnar nerves in 339 hands from 339 patients with CTS and 60 hands from 60 control subjects were investigated. Mean F-wave minimal latencies of median and ulnar nerves were compared between groups. Patients were further divided into subgroups based on Canterbury grading and then analyzed using F-wave latency differences (FWLD) and F-wave ratio (FWR). Results: Of 339 hands in the CTS group, 236 hands exhibited F-wave inversion based on the FWLD criterion and 277 hands had F-wave inversion based on the FWR criterion. F-wave inversion had a sensitivity of 81.7% using the FWR criterion to diagnose CTS. The mean FWLD and FWR were significantly greater in all patient subgroups compared to the control group (p < 0.001). In addition, mean FWLD and FWR showed significant correlations (r = -0.683 and r = 0.674, respectively, p < 0.001) with disease severity. Conclusions: F-wave studies are effective supplementary diagnostic tools comparing to other standard electrophysiologic criteria for screening patients with CTS.
