The elasticity of the contact wire is one of important static parameters for the catenary system. This paper presents how to analyse the elasticity of the catenary system using both simple string model method and finite element method with their formula. Analysis results obtained by these two methods for KTX catenary system are compared. A measurement of the elasticity for the KTX catenary under construction which is located near Kumkang bridge is made for the comparison with the analysis results. Both a dynamic and a static methods are tried for the measurement. Because of wave propagation, the dynamic method with 5 km/h running presented an asymmetric variational pattern of the elasticity while the static method presented a symmetric pattern of the elasticity in the span. Measured elasticity using the static method is found to be a little higher than the analysis results. But, the static method can presented us a variational pattern of the elasticity in the span similar to the analysed results. Therefore, the static method can be used for evaluating the elasticity of the catenary system

In this paper, we propose two receiver structures of the impulse radio (IR) system to improve its performance in multipath environments. Recently, the impulse radio system has drawn much attention for future high-speed wire-less communication services. The conventional IR receiver directly correlates received signals with the ideal reference waveform, which results in performance degradation in multipath environments. The Key idea of the proposed receiver structures is to reflect the multipath Characteristics into the IR receiver. One is to deconvolve the received waveform with estimates of the multipath gains to obtain the transmitted waveform while the other is to modify the reference waveform of the correlator according to the estimates of the multipath gains. We examine the performance of the proposed schemes for the statistical indoor wireless communication channel model using computer simulation.

The electric near-fields from a cellular phone's antenna are calculated using TLM method. The cellular phones is assumed to be a conductive box and the frequency is set to be 900 [MHz] and the radiated power is set to be 0.6 [W]. The near-fields and far-field patterns are obtained for wire antennas of 1/4 and 1/2 wavelengths. For the same radiation power, (0.6 [W]), it is found out the near-field for antennal length of λ/2 is much weaker than that for λ/4 antenna. The maximum SAR calculated in a simple head model becomes 1.4[W/kg].

Automated vision inspection has become a vital part of computer related industries. Most of the existing inspection systems mainly utilize black and white images. In this paper, we consider an application of automated vision inspection in which cable color has to be recognized in order to detect the quality status of assembled wire harness. A back-propagation neural network is proposed to classify seven different cable colors. To represent a single point in image space, we use the ($L^*,\;a^*,\;b^*$) model which is one of commonly used color-coordinate systems in image processing. After training the neural network with ($L^*,\;a^*,\;b^*$) data obtained from color image, we tested its performance. The results show that the neural network is able to classify cable colors with high performance.

A three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes solver is developed for the flow analysis around Micro Air Vehicle(MAV) designed by MACDL(Micro Aerodynamic Control and Design Lab), Seoul National Univ., Validations of this solver are presented for two cases, first flow over the circular cylinder with infinite length, second flow over infinite wing with wing section, E387 airfoil. Simultaneously, Wind Tunnel test is performed with Flatform Wire type sir-component balance and model designed by MACDL. The numerical results are also examined through comparison with experimental data.

Recently, a study on condensers for refrigerators has focused on new model which will cost less and will be more efficient. Some widely used condensers for domestic refrigerators are wire-and-tube type condenser, hot-wall type condenser, and spiral type condenser. Some companies which use the spiral type condenser at the moment try to develop a new type condenser which will cost less and will be as efficient as the spiral type. The new type condenser consists of a steel tube, steel plates and louver fins attached to the tube. The tube and the plate are bent into a single-passage serpentine shape.

The design of a current collection system of high speed train requires the fundamental understandings fer the dynamic characteristics of a catenary system and pantograph. The stiffness of the catenary system of high speed train has the varying characteristics for the change of the contact point with a pantograph, since the supporting pole and hanger make the different boundary conditions for the updown stiffness of a trolley wire. The variation of stiffness results in Mathiue equation, which characterizes the stability of the system. However, the two terms variation of the stiffness due to span length and hanger distance cannot be solved analytically. In this paper, the stiffness variations are calculated, and the physical reasoning of linear model and one term Mathieu equation are reviewed. And the numerical analysis for the two term variation of the stiffness is done for the several design parameters of the pantograph.

In this paper, the blue-green algae monitoring program of applying IoT(Internet of things) technologies is designed and implemented that can check out the status of the river's water quality in real time. The proposed system is to extract the image data from the camera of raspberry pi by an wireless network, and it is analyzed through the HSV color model. We measure the temperature using a DS18B20 1-wire temperature sensor. The extracted information of image data and temperature is then analyzed in C and Python programs for use with Raspberry Pi. The XML data in PHP program is made from the analyzed information and provides Web services. It also allows to refer the XML data using mobile devices.

In this paper, the general electromagnetic design process of a 10-MW-class high-temperature superconducting (HTS) synchronous generator that is intended to be utilized for large scale offshore wind generator is discussed. This paper presents three-dimensional (3D) electromagnetic design proposal and electrical characteristic analysis results of a 10-MW-class HTS synchronous generator for wind power. For more detailed design by reducing the errors of a two-dimensional (2D) design owing to leakage flux in air-gap, we redesign and analyze the 2D conceptual electromagnetic design model of the HTS synchronous generator using 3D finite element analysis (FEA) software. Then electrical characteristics which include the no-load and full-load voltage of generator, harmonic contents of these two load conditions, voltage regulation and losses of generator are analyzed by commercial 3D FEA software.

This paper investigates the transient characteristics of grounding systems used in under-ground distribution power cables. Recently, two kinds of grounding system are used for underground distribution cables in Korea. The first one is conventional multi-point grounding system, the other is newly proposed non-bundled common grounding system. The non-bundled common grounding system has an advantage the decreasing the power loss due to decrease of the shield circulation current. In this paper, the lightning overvoltage induced in neutral wire (in case of non-bundled common grounding system, overvoltage between opened neural wires and grounding in each phase) of these two kinds of grounding systems are estimated and compared by field tests and EMTP simulations. The EMTP simulation methods are firstly verified by comparison of measurement and simulation. Finally, the insulation level against lightning is expected by EMTP simulation results using verified model.
