▼ Integrated robust planning systems that cover all levels of SC hierarchy have become increasingly important. Strategic, tactical, and operational SC plans should not be generated in isolation to avoid infeasible and conflicting decisions. On the other hand, enterprise planning systems contain over millions of records that are processed in each planning iteration. In such enterprises, the ability to generate robust plans is vital to their success because such plans can save the enterprise resources that may otherwise have to be reserved for likely SC plan changes. A robust SC plan is valid in all circumstances and does not need many corrections in the case of interruption, error, or disturbance. Such a reliable plan is proactive as well as reactive. Proactivity can be achieved by forecasting the future events and taking them into account in planning. Reactivity is a matter of agility, the capability of keeping track of system behaviour and capturing alarming signals from its environment, and the ability to respond quickly to the occurrence of an unforeseen event. Modeling such a system behaviour and providing solutions after such an event is extremely important for a SC. This study focuses on integrated supply chain planning with stochastic dynamic considerations. An integrated tactical-operational model is developed and then segregated into two sub-models which are solved iteratively. A SC is a stochastic dynamic system whose state changes over time often in an unpredictable manner. As a result, the customer demand is treated as an uncertain parameter and is handled by exploiting scenario-based stochastic programming. The increase in the number of scenarios makes it difficult to obtain quick and good solutions. As such, a Branch and Fix algorithm is developed to segregate the stochastic model into isolated islands so as to make the computationally intractable problem solvable. However not all the practitioners, planners, and managers are risk neutral. Some of them may be concerned about the risky extreme scenarios. In view of this, the robust optimization approach is also adopted in this thesis. Both the solution robustness and model robustness are taken into account in the tactical model. Futhermore, the dynamic behaviour of a SC system is handled with the concept of Model Predictive Control (MPC).

▼ Combustion technology has been used in many areas today, such as in the synthesis of advanced materials, power generation and the production of engines. Combustion has been studied for a long time and many models have been developed to describe such combustion processes. However, most of those models focused on one-step combustion reaction schemes, with few considering more complex combustion reaction schemes.Our research interest is flame propagation in a two-stage reaction under adiabatic conditions in one-dimension. Specifically, we consider the following sequential reaction:A – >B+Q1 – >P+Q2.Here both reactions are assumed to proceed at temperature-dependent rates. The first reaction transforms the fuel A into the intermediate product B and heat Q1, while the second reaction transforms the intermediate species B into the final product P and heat Q2. An exothermic-endothermic scheme is considered here, so that Q1>0 (exothermic) and Q2<0 (endothermic). The above reaction scheme has direct relevance to blast furnace chemistry, in particular to the process of iron ore reduction in iron ore/coal composites. In our study, the properties of travelling combustion waves were investigated numerically by solving a system of nonlinear differential equations subject to appropriate boundary conditions. We study the wave speed and extinction limits of the combustion wave. Throughout our numerical investigation, we have employed independent methods to check the accuracy of the numerical solutions to ensure that the dynamics of the system is observed rather than numerical artefacts.Instability in combustion waves has been detected by both experiments and numerical simulations of combustion models. In this thesis, we also present results from our preliminary investigation of oscillation and chaotic combustion profiles. The objective is to investigate how these properties vary as parameter values change. The parameters of interest include those describing the rates and activation energies of the exothermic and endothermic reactions, the ratio of thermal to mass diffusivities of the fuel and intermediates. The transitions from stable to unstable planar wave solutions as well as various bifurcations have been found and numerically analysed.

▼ This dissertation is devoted to the development of distributed algorithms, with which nodes in a large decentralized network can accomplish tasks that are seemingly difficult without an omniscient central node. The tasks include estimating the graph spectrum, from which each node can draw its own conclusion about the network structure, computing the eigenvector centrality, from which every node can judge its own importance in the network, and solving a system of linear equations whose data are scattered across the network or discovering that no solution exists. The ability to perform these tasks enhances the capability of existing and emerging networks such as smart power grids, social networks, and ad hoc sensor networks, potentially allowing them to function in ways that are not previously thought to be possible. We begin with the design of a novel, two-stage distributed algorithm that enables nodes in an undirected and connected graph to jointly estimate the spectrum of a matrix associated with the graph, which includes the adjacency and Laplacian matrices as special cases. In the first stage, the algorithm uses a discrete-time linear iteration and the Cayley-Hamilton theorem to convert the problem into one of solving linear equations, where each equation is known to a node. In the second stage, if the nodes happen to know that said matrix is cyclic, the algorithm uses a Lyapunov approach to asymptotically solve the equations with an exponential rate of convergence. Otherwise, it uses a random perturbation approach and a structural controllability result to approximately solve the equations with an error that can be made small. We then consider the fundamental problem of cooperatively solving a general system of linear equations over a network, for which a continuous-time distributed algorithm is devised. We show that the algorithm enables the nodes to asymptotically agree on a solution when there are infinitely many solutions, determine the solution when there is exactly one, and detect that no solution exists when there are none. We also establish that the algorithm is globally exponentially convergent, derive an explicit lower bound on its convergence rate that it can do no worse than, and prove that the larger the network's algebraic connectivity, or the further away from being singular the system of equations, the larger this lower bound. Finally, we address the open question of whether it is possible to calculate eigenvector centrality over a network. We provide an affirmative answer by presenting a class of continuous-time distributed algorithms and an asynchronous gossip algorithm, which allow every node i in a graph to compute the ith entry of the Perron-Frobenius eigenvector of a symmetric, Metzler, and irreducible matrix induced by the graph, as well as the corresponding eigenvalue, when node i knows only row i of the matrix. We show that each continuous-time distributed algorithm is a nonlinear networked dynamical system with a skew-symmetric structure, whose state is guaranteed to… Advisors/Committee Members: Tang, Choon Yik (advisor), Cruz, J.

▼ Mobile phones have been completely changing the way people think and behave, making our lives convenient. At the same time, this accelerated growth has brought with it unprecedented new threats related to user privacy. A myriad of apps in Android phones are handling various user data. However, each app developer has the principle responsibility to protect them because the Android framework lacks direct support for them. This is not good news, because developers have varying levels of secure coding practice, and the resulting apps may inadvertently misuse of sensitive data of users. In this thesis, I will present my studies with various Android apps and the Android framework to understand the misuse of secrets in the mobile environment. To assist my work, I have used various analysis techniques and developed a dynamic analysis framework to perform systematic analyses of Android apps. This dissertation describes approaches and tools I have developed, my findings on how sensitive data is misused, and mitigation to address found security problems. Our research has had a significant practical impact and helped to mitigate the misuse of secrets in the mobile ecosystem. Specifically, I designed a memory analysis framework that provides physical and logical memory dumping, along with a high degree of automation of experiments. We have discovered that Android keeps TLS master secret live in memory for an unnecessarily long period of time, posing a threat to all Android applications built on standard HTTPS libraries. I found modest changes to Android codebase could mitigate these issues, and reported to Google. Also, our comprehensive analysis of variety of apps revealed that user passwords can survive in a variety of locations for an extended period of time, including UI widgets where users enter their passwords, apps that retain passwords rather than exchange them for tokens, old copies not yet reused by garbage collectors, keyboard apps, password management apps, and even the lockscreen system service. I have developed solutions that fix these problems and assist apps to follow more secure practices. Lastly, I will present FlowPass, an efficient and informative dynamic taint tracking system that I developed. FlowPass found 13 previously unknown security bugs in popular apps that have each been installed more than one million times. I have reported these misuses to the app vendors, and most have fixed the bugs shortly afterward. Advisors/Committee Members: Wallach, Dan Seth (advisor).

M.S. University of Hawaii at Manoa 2010.

Along with the diminishing supplies of fossil fuels, the continually increasing price of oil, and the deterioration of the environment as an effect of fossil fueled vehicles, the world now focuses its attention on green energy and vehicle hybridization. This has given rise to many alternatives in internal combustion engine vehicle hybridization such as the parallel and series hybrids, as well as plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. This paper proposes a new method of hybridization which allows ICE vehicles to be retrofitted to take advantage of regenerative braking and acceleration assistance. The conjoined automotive regenerative braking system is a small trailer like device that can be attached via trailer hitch to the ICE vehicle in order to create a pseudo parallel hybrid. The CARB will be connected to the trailer hitch of the ICE vehicle through a series elastic element in order to filter impulse shock loads as well as provide stability and robustness in force control. This thesis explains the dynamic modeling of the system as well as the response of the system to varying control schemes. Firstly, the system was analyzed analytically as a Series Elastic Actuator. The system model is very simple and a PD force controller is implemented to regulate the force in the spring connecting the CARB and the Vehicle. The closed loop transfer function is determined and the step response of the system was analyzed to determine that the closed loop natural frequency of the system needed to be above 100Hz in order for the transients in the response to die out within half of a second. Secondly, a simulink model of the system was created. A linear damper is added in parallel with the series elastic element between the vehicle and the CARB. The system input is a feed forward desired force for the vehicle determined from the Federal Urban Driving Schedule and the mass of the vehicle. A proportion of this feed forward desired force of the car is used as the desired force from the CARB. A PID controller regulates the torque of the CARB to minimize the force error between the desired force and the load force. The control parameters for this load force control scheme are determined using the signal constraint block in simulink and are determined for a variety of linear spring constants and linear damping constants. The velocity error of the system velocity response versus FUDS is less than 0.3 m/s for any simulation, and the load force error was limited to less than 150 N. The power used by the vehicle was shown to be significantly lessened by the addition of the CARB. Thirdly a more detailed Simulink model was created using the Simscape toolbox which allowed for highly detailed simulated physical entities, such as drivelines, inertias, electronics, etc. This system uses a battery model and DC/DC converter which is connected to a 50kW PMSM to simulate the electronics of the CARB, The longitudinal and tire dynamics of the car and of the system are accounted for. A model of an ICE was used to…

▼ I begin with a brief introduction to dynamic systems, the identification of system parameters from records of input and output, and also wave energy converters which provide case studies to motivate the research. The dynamic systems discussed are categorized as linear or nonlinear dynamic systems. I present brief reviews of strategies for identification of dynamic systems which cover the history and also the areas of applications. The discretization of differential equations for dynamic systems is a recurrent theme and I consider forward, backward and central differences in detail for linear systems. The estimation techniques discussed are the principle of least squares, the Kalman filter and spectral analysis. Several system identification techniques for nonlinear dynamic systems in the time domain and in the frequency domain are presented and compared. The main focus of the thesis is estimation methods based on wavelets. I present some introduction to the wavelet transforms, which cover both continuous and discrete wavelet transforms. Wavelet methods for system identification of linear and nonlinear dynamic systems are discussed. Throughout this research, I have published four research articles guided by my supervisors. The first article discusses the wavelet based technique for linear system, and the technique was compared to the spectral analysis technique. The second article compare two types of wave energy converters, where the heaving buoy wave energy converter (HBWEC) is modelled as a linear system and the oscillating flap wave energy converter (OFWEC) as a nonlinear system. The frequency domain technique for system identification of nonlinear dynamic systems have been applied on the OFWEC model. Unscented Kalman filter have been discussed in the third article where the nonlinear OFWEC system have been used as the case study. A wavelet approach for nonlinear system identification has been discussed in the fourth article together with the probing technique. The probing technique was used to find the generalized frequency response functions of the nonlinear dynamic systems based on the nonlinear autoregressive with exogenous input (ARX) model. Both technique were compared for two weakly nonlinear oscillators, the Duffing and the Van der Pol. Once again, we selected the OFWEC system as a case study.

▼ Although the operations of enterprise includes four perspectives â finance, customer, internal business processes, learning and growth, the content of each perspective can be further divided into many subjects according to the different characteristic of each enterprise or business field. Among each perspective, they all have causal relationship directly or indirectly. Very often, the other perspectives will be impacted when the strategy or performance of one perspective has been changed, and the final overall performance of enterprise will also be affected via this kind of relationship. Because the relationship among these perspectives is complicated and the problem of time delay is serious, it is difficult for a manager to make correct decisions in this complicated operation system. Once the wrong strategy is taken, the growth of enterprise will be postponed, or even worse, the enterprise will be out of business by the potential risk that caused by the wrong strategy. For instance, the magic development stories of Wonder Techs and People Express are both very typical examples. This research takes A Corporation as the object of case study. Through the collection and study of domestic and foreign relative literature, paper and theses, this case study will help the object company find out the opportunity and its orientation on the present and future market environment by STEP analyzing, inspect the companyâs competition and threat by Michael E. Porterâs Five Basic Competitive Forces Analysis, and survey the strength, weakness, opportunity and threat of the company on the market by SWOT method. And finally, the causal relationship diagram of the enterprise operations can be drawn by system thinking methodology with the four-perspective framework of balanced scorecard from the overall view of enterprise. The analysis of this causal relationship feedback diagram will check the influence of the whole enterpriseâs operation system by all kinds of operation activities, and even, can set up the enterpriseâs Dynamic Strategy Map based on this study. The Dynamic Strategy Map will help the manager analyze the operation strategy through the angle of the whole system operations to avoid just emphasizing on the short-term performance and neglecting the necessary of the long-term fundamental measures required for running the enterprise forever. Moreover, it can also assist the manager to pursue the high leverage point from the causal feedback diagram to be the key performance indicator for improving the enterpriseâs operation quality and enhancing its competitiveness, and to allocate the limited resources on the most suitable places to create best benefit. This case study takes the present condition of A Corporation as the research scope. Restricted by companyâs specific characteristic and present operation condition, the findings of this research cannot be applied to the other enterprises directly. But by comparing with the similar operation activities of the other enterprise or group, the causal relationship feedback among these… Advisors/Committee Members: Chang-yung Liu (chair), Yi-min Tu (committee member), Leon Chong (chair).

Diversas aplicações executadas em ambientes de cluster necessitam de uma área de armazenamento permanente com alta capacidade e que forneça uma visão homogênea dos dados entre todos os nós. Esta área compartilhada é comumente implementada através de um sistema de arquivos distribuído, permitindo o acesso através da abstração mais comum para gerenciamento de dados. A disparidade entre poder de processamento e desempenho de dispositivos de armazenamento atuais, no entanto, torna tais sistemas um ponto crítico ao desempenho de aplicações paralelas que lidam com grandes volumes de dados. Ambientes de cluster podem apresentar execução concorrente de aplicações em conjuntos independentes de máquinas. Desta forma, uma grande quantidade de clientes com características distintas farão acessos ao sistema de arquivos compartilhado. Em tais casos, o dimensionamento do sistema de armazenamento distribuído nem sempre poderá prover o desempenho necessário à execução das aplicações com os recursos inicialmente a ele destinados. O presente trabalho propõe uma estratégia de reconfiguração dinâmica para o sistema de arquivos dNFSp. Esta estratégia leva em consideração o comportamento temporal presente em aplicações paralelas para inserir servidores de dados exclusivos a aplicações com alta demanda de I/O. Com a utilização de servidores exclusivos, torna-se possível isolar aplicações com comportamentos que causam grande perda de desempenho no sistema como um todo. Foi desenvolvida uma ferramenta de monitoramento do desempenho junto aos servidores do dNFSp, de forma a solicitar novos servidores apenas quando a interação das fases de I/O das aplicações em execução interferirem no desempenho do sistema. Esses novos servidores são solicitados para um sistema escalonador de recursos para cluster, de forma a utilizar nós livres para o armazenamento de dados. Os resultados mostram que a estratégia proposta é capaz de detectar a saturação do sistema de armazenamento e iniciar os servidores exclusivos, levando a um ganho de desempenho para as aplicações em execução. A reconfiguração dinâmica também mostrou-se capaz de evitar baixos desempenhos causados pela interação dos períodos de inatividade de aplicações temporais e pela utilização de diversos processos de I/O em um único nó.

Several applications executed in cluster environments need a shared storage area with high capacity and a homogeneous view of the stored data to all processing nodes. This area is commonly implemented as a distributed file system, allowing the access to data through the well-known file abstraction. The great gap in performance of processors and storage devices, on the other hand, makes such system a critical point to the performance of parallel applications. A common trait of large cluster environments is the concurrent execution of applications. In this scenario, many clients with distinct behaviors will compete to access the shared storage system. The number of I/O resources originally dedicated to this shared storage may provide unsatisfactory performance to the…

▼ Flexible ac transmission system (FACTS) controllers offer new opportunities to better control power systems, and can address some of the critical challenges faced by the grid, especially in the context of smart grids. Furthermore, the smartening of distribution systems with distributed generation, storage devices, and intelligent loads have created challenges for the operation of distribution feeders, which can be addressed adequately with power-electronics based controllers and FACTS controllers for distribution systems. However, the capital intensive nature of these controllers is a major obstacle for a wide application of this technology in power systems. A cost effective FACTS controller has been introduced in the literature, which yields operating characteristics similar to those of the versatile Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC). This device consists of converters as well as passive components, and is referred to as the Hybrid Power Flow Controller (HPFC). The study of the HPFC and its performance in electric power systems requires adequate and relevant models representing the device behavior according to the intended studies, such as steady state or time-domain dynamic analyses; moreover, the benefits of an HPFC are determined by its limits and operating constraints. Therefore, static and dynamic models of the HPFC for transmission and distribution system applications are proposed and studied in this work. First, steady-state models of the HPFC for power flow and optimal power flow (OPF) studies are proposed in this work, considering its multiple control modes and operating constraints. Thus, a strategy for control limit handling in power flow calculations is proposed, while considering a discrete passive shunt capacitor bank in the device. Moreover, an OPF model of the device is proposed and explained in detail, representing all the device control and physical limits as constraints in the mathematical formulation, so that the HPFC can be optimally dispatched as a part of the transmission system control assets; this model is used to determine the optimal ratings of the device based on a cost – benefit analysis. The proposed power flow and OPF models are tested and validated based on several loadability studies on a two-area benchmark test system. The HPFC power flow model is also tested and applied to a detailed model of Ontario grid and its neighboring networks with more than 6000 buses. The analyses demonstrate the application of the models for planning and operation studies, evaluating the performance and the effectiveness of the device based on realistic studies and scenarios. Second, the merits and the added value of the HPFC application to distribution systems are discussed here through detailed modeling and time-domain simulations, examining its impact on a distribution network under different conditions. Thus, a detailed dynamic representation of the HPFC is developed and implemented in PSCAD/EMTDC, describing and proposing control strategies to properly operate this controller in…

▼ There is a general consensus worldwide for a need to increase the capacities of transmission lines by not physically altering the transmission structures. Amidst this challenge, dynamic thermal rating (DTR) system appears as an appropriate option. Besides that, many countries have also pledged to integrate wind energy sources into their power networks. Taking these as motivations, the purpose of this thesis is to carry out the reliability analysis of DTR system for transmission lines. The two main standards - IEEE 738 and CIGRE, use for calculating the line rating of overhead lines has been analysed and compared. It was demonstrated that the two standards yield insignificant differences in their calculated line ratings. A new methodology that can systematically assess the reliability and risk of any DTR system designs was proposed in this thesis. In the reliability assessment part, methods such as the event tree analysis (ETA), risk reduction worth (RRW) and wide range method (WRM) were used. The risks of DTR systems were evaluated by implementing them in the IEEE 24-bus reliability test network (RTN). The network’s loss of load and the percentages of the conductor loss of tensile strength constitute the risks of DTR systems. In the risk assessment part, a multiple-linear regression (MLR) model was proposed to estimate missing weather values during the failure of DTR sensors. Results in this thesis show that the MLR model is accurate and has only estimation error of less than 6%. It avoids overestimating the risk of DTR systems. An optimum DTR system design was also selected. The strategic placement of DTR sensors along a transmission line is an important reliability issue too. Hence, a new DTR sensor placement algorithm that considers the effects of DTR system ratings on the amount of line sagging, conductor annealing and the correlation between DTR system ratings and actual line ratings was proposed. Results in this thesis show that the newly proposed algorithm outperforms the currently published algorithm in terms of causing no spans to sag beyond their ground clearance limits and all spans experience lesser annealing effects. The 2-dimensional movement of line spans in their longitude and latitude directions, which the currently published algorithm also lacks, are considered in the proposed algorithm. This thesis also investigates the reliability behaviours of a power network that has DTR systems and wind farms. The proposed methodology for achieving that considers the reliability of transmission lines, DTR systems, conventional generators and wind turbines. The chronological behaviour of DTR ratings and wind farm power outputs was modelled using the auto-regressive and moving-average (ARMA) model. The correlations between the ARMA models were also considered. Results in this thesis show that by considering the correlation effects, the network’s reliability indices are not over and under estimated. A new reliability index for describing the amount of wind power integration named as Expected Wind Power Delivered… Advisors/Committee Members: MILANOVIC, JOVICA JV, Cotton, Ian, Milanovic, Jovica.

▼ Renewable energy has a significant potential to reduce global carbon emissions and secure long-term sustainable power supply. Higher penetration of renewable energy, however, is largely hindered by the inherent variability and intermittency of renewable resources, and renewable energy is generally considered as non-dispatchable. In other words, rather than control and dispatch the renewable energy economically, grid operators must arrange other generation units in response to what produced by wind turbines or solar panels in order to maintain network stability and meet reliability parameters.This motivates the development of microgrids supplied by renewable energy resources. Either grid-connected or islanded, these decentralized power systems are believed to be a promising solution to achieve higher penetration of clean energy in the future. Given proper control of storage units and communications with the energy market, the non-dispatchable energy can be regulated to reduce the difficulty of power scheduling in the grid operation.Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are used in many research to make renewable energy more controllable and usable on demand. Assisted by appropriate prediction techniques and control algorithms, BESS can store part of the generated renewable energy and supply some stored energy at different periods, so that the actual power dispatched can meet the required operating criteria.The main focus of this thesis is the optimal control strategy of microgrids with renewable energy systems and battery energy storage systems. The control algorithms introduced in this thesis are developed to maximize the profit and minimize the energy cost in microgrids, which require predicted data on renewable power, temperature, electricity price, and load demand. In comparison with many previous studies in this area, we developed some novel algorithms that have an emphasis on the battery lifetime degradation and computation speed, which can be critical in achieving the optimal dispatch in microgrids.

▼ Micro-combined heat and power systems (MCHP) provide an efficient, decentralised means of power generation that can complement the composition of the electricity generation mix. However, intermittent load conditions, transient system behaviour and ensuring self-sufficiency represent challenges that MCHP systems currently on the market need to address. System efficiency and run times can be increased by combining MCHP units with thermal and electric energy storage (EES) systems, decoupling energy supply and demand. When local generation of energy is complemented with energy storage during times of high supply and with discharge of stored energy during periods of high demand, self-sufficiency can be increased. Reducing demand at peak times makes the electricity grid more resilient and potentially lowers electricity costs for consumers.Two simulation models of MCHP systems based on thermodynamic principles were developed and combined with data from an MCHP test stand at the Technology Centre Energy (TCE), Univ. Applied Sciences Landshut, Germany. Dynamic tools capable of handling transient system behaviour are required to assess MCHP efficiency beyond a mere static analysis based on steady-state design parameters. A range of analysis tools were used, such as exergy, degree of self-sufficiency, peak time coverage and load duration curves.The concept of exergy allows direct comparison of different forms of energy. Exergetic definitions for different operational system states were combined to continuously quantify overall system efficiency. A sensitivity analysis assessed the effect on MCHP performance under varying engine speed, thermal energy storage (TES) size and fluid storage temperature. Selecting specific TES fluid temperatures can improve system efficiency.A quantitative assessment was made on how the existing TCE control logic behaved and could be improved. It had been implemented to optimise MCHP unit run time, taking energy storage charging levels into account. It was determined how the MCHP unit and EES system can complement each other to benefit the system performance. Supply composition characteristics were identified that lead to higher load coverage by MCHP-generated electricity. Incorporating an EES system has a significant impact on balancing supply and demand and also ensures longer MCHP run times. Improvements to the system control logic were proposed to increase self-sufficiency and enhance electrical demand coverage during peak time.

▼ This thesis primarily focuses on studying the impact of Distributed Generation (DG) on the electromechanical transients in the electric grid (distribution, transmission or combined transmission and distribution (TandD) systems) using a Three Phase Dynamics Analyzer (hereafter referred to as TPDA). TPDA includes dynamic models for electric machines, their controllers, and a three-phase model of the electric grid, and performs three-phase dynamic simulations without assuming a positive sequence network model. As a result, TPDA can be used for more accurate investigation of electromechanical transients in the electric grid in the presence of imbalances. At present, the Electromagnetic Transient Program (EMTP) software can be used to perform three-phase dynamic simulations. This software models the differential equations of the entire electric network along with those of the machines. This calls for solving differential equations with time constants in the order of milliseconds (representing the fast electric network) in tandem with differential equations with time constants in the order of seconds (representing the slower electromechanical machines). This results in a stiff set of differential equations, making such an analysis extremely time consuming. For the purpose of electromechanical transient analysis, TPDA exploits the difference in the order of time constants and adopts phasor analysis of the electric network, solving differential equations only for the equipment whose dynamics are much slower than those of the electric network. Power Flow equations are solved using a graph trace analysis based approach which, along with the explicit partitioned method adopted in TPDA, can eventually lead to the use of distributed computing that will further enhance the speed of TPDA and perhaps enable it to perform dynamic simulation in real time . In the work presented here, first an overview of the methodology behind TPDA is provided. A description of the object oriented implementation of TPDA in C++/C# is included. Subsequently, TPDA is shown to accurately simulate power system dynamics of balanced networks by comparing its results against those obtained using GE-PSLF®. This is followed by an analysis that demonstrates the advantages of using TPDA by highlighting the differences in results when the same problem is analyzed using a three-phase network model with unbalances and the positive sequence network model as used in GE-PSLF®. Finally, the impact of rapidly varying DG generation is analyzed, and it is shown that as the penetration level of DG increases, the current and voltage oscillations throughout the transmission network increase as well. Further, rotor speed deviations are shown to grow proportionally with increasing DG penetration. Advisors/Committee Members: Broadwater, Robert P.

▼ Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) diagnosis is based on four standard approaches, i.e., observation, smelling/listening, inquiry, and palpation. Observation tops the four ways of TCM diagnosis and tongue corresponds to the major subject of focus during observation. Traditional teaching methodology, namely, classroom lecture and textbook with a limited number of illustrations, were usually the major means of acquiring knowledge relevant to tongue diagnosis. The exemplary illustrations were usually captured under poorly controlled lighting environment and printed with low color quality. The teaching material cannot be updated dynamically and the static assessment questions cannot be adjusted to meet the needs of each individual learner. The limitations in terms of learning location, time and type, and teaching and assessment methods leave much to be desired. With the help of computer technology, a diversified digital learning and assessment platform is constructed to lift these aforementioned constraints. In light of the pitfalls of traditional TCM education and static assessment, this paper focuses on the dynamic assessment system of tongue diagnosis based on Mashup technique (DASTD). The continuum of assessment is dynamically adapted according to specific userâs answering pattern of previous questions. Supplemented by the teaching materials constantly updated through the Mashup technique, the user is provided with pertinent information tailored to his needs. Dynamic assessment, coupled with Mashup-powered digital education, form an efficient framework for the learning of TCM tongue diagnosis. 34 college students, ranging from 1st to 3rd year, in TCM department are tested by the DASTD developed. The efficacy of the DASTD is evaluated based on the pre-test and post-test performance, with interleaving learning sessions targeting on the weakness of the student under test. The result of t-test demonstrates that significant difference is reached between gain scores of pre- and post-tests, and positive correlation between gain scores and length of time spent on learning, while no significant differences between the gender and post-test gain score, and the years of students in school and the progress in gain score.

▼ The starting point is that the current energy system is largely dependant on fossil fuels. This phenomenon, which is labelled as carbon lock-in by Unruh (2000), makes the breakthrough of renewable energies long, slow, and tedious. The most suitable theoretical approach to analyse the development, diffusion and implementation of emergent technologies, such as renewable energies, is the Technological Innovation Systems' (TIS) perspective as developed by Carlsson and Stanckiewicz (1991). This approach focuses on a particular technology and includes all those factors (institutions, actors, and networks) that influence its development. Recent research has identified several so-called System Functions that need to be fulfilled for a TIS to support successfully the evolution of a technology. In this paper we will use the following set of System Functions: F1: Entrepreneurial Activities, F2: Knowledge Development (learning), F3: Knowledge Diffusion through Networks, F4: Guidance of the Search, F5: Market Formation, F6: Resources Mobilisation, F7: Counteracting Resistance to Change (also Support from Advocacy Coalitions). By focusing on the System Functions the key processes that occur in a system which influence the development, diffusion and implementation of that technology will be identified and insight will be gained in the system dynamics. The System Functions are not independent but interact and influence each other. The nature of interactions whether they are positive or negative will influence the performance of the system respectively. Positive System Function fulfilment can lead to positive, i.e. virtuous cycles of processes that strengthen each other and lead to the building up of momentum that creates a process of creative destruction within the incumbent system (Jacobsson and Bergek 2004). According to the same reasoning, a system in decline is characterised by one or more vicious cycles, where the System Functions interact and reinforce each other in a negative way. The results from the case studies showed that different functional patterns occurred for the Biomass Innovation Systems. These can be divided into virtuous and vicious cycles. In the case of virtuous cycles a successful diffusion of the respective technologies occurred (for example biomass digestion in Germany and biomass co-firing in the Netherlands), whereas low diffusion is observed for the technologies (for example biomass digestion, biomass gasification and stand-alone biomass combustion in the Netherlands) where vicious cycles dominated the system. Furthermore, the findings show that biomass technologies go through long-term trajectories (10-30 years) of development, diffusion and implementation. However, the Dutch government only provided short-term policies and removed all support when the technical problems were not solved within this short term. In order to accelerate the diffusion of biomass energy technologies a long-term and stable guidance by the government is needed where time and space for trial and error are provided, where a market…

O presente trabalho discorre sobre os principais fatores que influenciam o projeto do sistema de posicionamento dinâmico (SPD) de um navio aliviador. Os fatores discutidos estão relacionados às questões de confiabilidade de sistemas e às características dos atuadores tipicamente utilizados em embarcações com SPD, tais como, dutos e azimutais. Em relação à confiabilidade de sistemas, os métodos de avaliação por diagramas de blocos e análise de modos de falha e efeitos (FMEA) são discutidos com a aplicação direcionada aos navios aliviadores com SPD. O uso de banco de dados de incidentes de operações com sistemas flutuantes com SPD também é comentado. As alternativas mais utilizadas de arranjo propulsivo para navios aliviadores são apresentadas e analisadas. As interações hidrodinâmicas entre casco-atuador, atuador-atuador e atuador-corrente são apresentadas e comentadas. Ensaios realizados em tanque de provas com propulsores em duto e azimutais instalados em modelos em escala reduzida são apresentados. O texto apresenta a execução de um projeto de dimensionamento propulsivo de um navio aliviador com SPD que opera em águas brasileiras. Para tanto, um procedimento de projeto é sugerido com as seguintes etapas: estudo dos pontos de operação, definição de requisitos de projeto, cálculo de estimativas iniciais, tomada de decisão para a escolha do arranjo propulsivo pelo método de análise hierárquica (AHP), análise de confiabilidade do SPD por FMEA e, por fim, avaliação de desempenho. A avaliação do desempenho do sistema propulsivo projetado é realizada por diagramas de capacidade e simulações dinâmicas. Uma breve comparação entre navios aliviadores com classificações diferentes é realizada e comentada.
