Invited Speech: Dynamic Testing of an IEC 61850 Based 110kV Smart

Substation Solution

Speaker: Prof. Jian-Cheng TAN, Guangxi University, China Time: 08:30-09:10, Saturday Morning, Sep.13, 2014 Location: BoYa Zhai (博雅斋), 4th Floor, Wuhan Hongyi Hotel Abstract This paper presents the dynamic simulation and testing to verify the smart substation solutions designed for a brown field 110kV retrofitting project. An IEC 61850 based aotomation design, transitioning the conventional substation into a smart substation, where existing current/voltage transformers remain in service, and smart Field Apparatus Interface Units (FAIUs) are utilised to bridge the conventional primary system to the IEC 61850 based secondary system. While outdoor switchgears and field instrument transformers are equipped with FAIUs, MV indoor switchgears are installed with IEDs mounted on the top. Direct point-to-point connections serve as process buses, and a single PRP/RSTP LAN is employed at station bus level. Extensive dynamic simulation and testing were conducted in the Smart Substation Technologies Lab, and test results show the smart substation performance meets and exceeds the substation reliability requirement. Index Terms—process bus, station bus, GOOSE, digital substations, smart substations, parallel redudancy

Invited Speech: Phase Change Material (PCM) Integrated Thermoelectric

Cooling System for Space Cooling Purpose

Speaker: Prof. Gang TAN, University of Wyoming, USA Time: 09:10-09:50, Saturday Morning, Sep.13, 2014 Location: BoYa Zhai (博雅斋), 4th Floor, Wuhan Hongyi Hotel Abstract The thermoelectric cooling system has advantages over conventional vapor compression cooling devices, such as no mechanical moving parts, no refrigerant, and being powered by direct current. However, it has been suffering from its relatively high cost and low performance efficiency. A prototype thermoelectric cooling system integrated with phase change material (PCM) thermal energy storage for space cooling has been developed in order to achieve better system performance through improving thermoelectric cooling system thermal design. The PCM thermal storage unitfunctions as the heat sink during daytime cooling period and provides


relatively lower hot side temperature for the thermoelectric cooling system using “free” night cooling. The experimental test of the prototype system in a reduced-scale chamber has realized an average cooling COP of 0.87, with the maximum value of 1.22. Another comparison test for efficacy of PCM thermal storage unit shows that 35.3% electrical energy has been saved from using PCM for the thermoelectric cooling system. In general, PCM faces difficulty of poor heat conductivity at solid phase. This system implemented a finned inner tube to increase heat transfer during PCM charging (melting) process that directly impacts thermoelectric system’s performance. A simulation tool for the entire system has been developed including mathematical models for thermoelectric modules, the thermoelectric cooling unit, the PCM thermal storage unit, and the outdoor air-water heat exchanger. When modeling PCM thermal storage unit, the enthalpy method has been adopted. Experimental measurements have observed natural convection played a key effect on heat transfer in PCM. A modified effective thermal conductivity (ke) correlation to Rayleigh (Ra) number formula has been introduced to better capture the natural convection characteristics during the PCM charging process. Finally, a modeling-based design procedure for thermoelectric cooling system integrating with PCM has been proposed, which will also extend the PCM unit application to other areas.

Invited Speech: Power Generation Using Stirling Engines: Applications and

Thermal Modeling

Speaker: Prof. Hoseyn Sayyaadi, K. N. Toosi University of Technology, Iran Time: 09:50-10:30, Saturday Morning, Sep.13, 2014 Location: BoYa Zhai (博雅斋), 4th Floor, Wuhan Hongyi Hotel Abstract Stirling engine is a kind of heat engine with high thermal efficiency which is almost equal to the Carnot's efficiency when its processes are internally reversible, its compression and expansion processes are isothermal and ideal regeneration process is implemented between expansion and compression spaces. Stirling engines are external combustion engines; so, those could be heated using various heat sources such as solar, biomass, convectional fuel, nuclear, waste heat and so on. Stirling engines have many advantages over conventional internal combustion engines which include high potential thermal efficiency, flexibility in the used fuel, less emission of nitrogen oxide, quiet and minimal vibration operation, high reliability and the highest specific work compared to any closed regenerative cycle. In this presentation, first a brief introduction regarding various types of Stirling engines will be presented. In addition, various applications of Stirling engines from CHP including stationary power generation, solar power Stirling engines, , application in CHP and CCHP systems, air and space power generation, power generation in submarines, and so on will be introduced. As in design and optimization of Stirling engines a precise thermal model to predict power output and thermal efficiency in terms of engines


parameters is essential, various thermal models including closed-form, empirical and numerical model will be reviewed and the accuracy of various models will be discussed.

Article ID: 10012 Title: Power Quality Regulation using Free Market Oriented Approach Name: Tek Tjing Lie Affiliation: Serawak Energy E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Power quality is a compatibility issue between the supply systems and the connected loads. It is often considered as a customer-side problem as its significance depends primarily on the sensitivity of the affected equipment and its func-tion. Improvement solutions are implemented by or on behalf of the customers only if the negative impact is causing great financial losses. However, as the reliance on electronic devices continues to increase unabatedly, the percentage of equipment being affected is expected to grow appreciably. In due course, the number of affected equipment could be so large that it is only practical and economical to implement universal solutions instead of individual solutions. This paper provides an early view of this scenario and explores the various elements necessary for reining in the poor power quality, widely expected to deteriorate further following deregulation of power industry. It attempts to use the free market oriented approach so that solutions implemented are justified on economical basis. Article ID: 10028 Title: Establishment of Output Models and Constraints Analysis for Independent Wind/PV/Storage System Name: Linjing Hu Affiliation: Inner Mongolia University of Technology E-mail: [email protected] Abstract

In remote areas far from the grid, wind/PV/storage generating system is relatively a good choice, whatever in resource configuration, performance or prices. For the independent hybrid power system, the output models of wind turbines, photovoltaic arrays and batteries are built in this paper, and based on the objectives of the capacity configuration optimal model, constraints used in the process of capacity configuration are analyzed. These provide convenient conditions and theoretical basis for the optimal capacity configuration of independent wind/PV/storage system. Article ID: 10038 Title: Propagation Characteristics of Partial Discharge Pulses in the Cable Name: Lin Jianhua Affiliation: BDongguan Power Breuse of Guangdong Grid E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In order to determine the type and location of partial discharge in cable, the effect of partial discharge (PD) pulse propagation in the cable is studied. Firstly, pulses are injected to cables of different lengths so that input and output sig-nal can be measured at both ends of each cable. Then the transfer function of pulse propagation path can be defined. Secondly, high-voltage test is done in the cable joint with man-made defects, and typical PD waveforms are gotten. Seven parameters of waveform characteristics are calculated, including edge times, waveform shape and statistical characteristics. They are used to distinguish different types of PD or distances of the pulse propagation. Thus the effi-ciency of PD recognition in cable can be improved.

Article ID: 10045 Title: Shape Effect of Piezoelectric Energy Harvester on Vibration Power Generation Name: Seiji Hashimoto Affiliation: Gunma University E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Vibration energy harvesting is widely recognized as the useful technology for saving energy. The piezoelectric energy harvesting device is one of energy harvester and is used to operate certain types of MEMS devices. Various factors influence the energy regeneration efficiency of the lead zirconate titanate piezoelectric (PZT) devices in converting the mechanical vibration energy to the electrical energy. This paper presents the analytical and experimental evaluation of energy regeneration efficiency of PZT devices through impedance matching method and drop-weight experiments to different shape of PZT devices. The results show that the impedance matching method has increased the energy regen-eration efficiency while triangular shape of PZT device produce a stable efficiency in the energy regeneration. Besides that, it becomes clear that the power, energy and subsequently efficiency of the triangular plate are higher than those of the rectangular plate under the condition of the matching impedance and the same PZT area. Article ID: 10064 Title: Francis Turbine and Governor Improved Models Considering Step Closing Law of Guide Vanes for Power System Stability Analysis Name: Yuheng Tang Affiliation: Wuhan University E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The Francis turbine governing system models in PSD-BPA can’t precisely reflect the actual characteristics. Endeavor was done in this paper to solve the problem. An improved model of actuating

mechanism was developed, which could reflect the step closing characteristic of hydro guide vanes. The effect of the inflection point value of actuating mechanism on load rejection was analyzed based on simulation. The non-linear Francis turbine model with power versus gate position module was researched in this paper. Based on field test, comparisons of simulation results with measured data were presented. The analysis demonstrates that the improved models of Francis turbine and governor proposed in this paper are more realistic than the models of BPA, and can be applied in power system simulation analysis better. Article ID: 10065 Title: Auxiliary-Service Smart Monitoring Solutions: A Study in High-Power Substations in Colombia Name: Luis Rojas Affiliation: Universidad Distrital E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The present study assesses the possibility of implementing an auxiliary-service smart monitoring solution at power sub-stations. The solution is intended to improve substation indices in terms of accident rates and undesired events that result from initial incidents associated to failure of the Direct-Current systems in charge of supporting the operation of protection elements. In recent years in Colombia, substation fires have been reported, and auxiliary services have been identified as a potential initial cause of these unfortunate events. In fact, in Bogotá (Capital city of Colombia), in the last decade, incidents occurred at four high-power substations, and the potential failure cause was associated to the operation of auxiliary services, according to the criteria of experts in the electrical sector. The present study illustrates how a monitoring system substantially improves the lifecycle of battery banks in a three-year period (8% lifecycle improvement together with an increase in reliability of the system by allowing more time for failure identification). The estimated financial benefits reach


2 million US dollars and stem from reducing the frequency of explosions at substa-tions by 11%. The technology in question is assessed and recommended based on the results of various experiments, where various monitoring methods are tested, also considering the operation and maintenance costs that constitute an appropriate lifecycle evaluation. Article ID: 10073 Title: The Analysis of the Differences Between Electromechanical Transients Simulation and Electromagnetic Transients Simulation Name: Haoyu Huang Affiliation: South China University of Technology E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The paper firstly interprets the differences between electromechanical transients program BPA and electromagnetic transients program EMTDC in the field of principle, model and algorithm. Then the authors carry out the simulation based on single-machine infinite-bus system and draw some conclusions. The time consumption of the simulation using EMTDC is much longer than the simulation using BPA under the same length of time. The results of BPA are close to those of EMTDC under steady conditions. The fundamental frequency component of the EMTDC results seems closer to the BPA results than its original value, but they still away from completely consistent. In this simulation of single-machine infinite-bus system, the transient stability results of BPA and EMTDC are close, but the results of BPA are apt to be more conservative. All the conclusions above have a certain reference value to both hybrid simulation and comprehensive analysis method in the study of the AC/DC digital simulation of large power grid. Article ID: 10076 Title: Research on the Optimized Network Configuration of DC Blocking Device

Name: Chengjun Xia Affiliation: South China University of Technology E-mail: [email protected] Abstract HVDC transmission system has considerable impact on the surrounding power transformers when the system running in the unipolar ground mode, which will cause the DC magnetic biasing phenomenon on transformers. This problem would be more serious, after commission and operation of UHVDC transmission system in China. According to the Guangdong power grid under the influence of DC magnetic bias seriously, but little research about the using of blocking device, this paper proposed a optimization scheme about the usage of blocking device combination. Firstly, the subject studied the method of suppressing transformer neutral point DC depending on analysis the mechanism of magnetic biasing, and then found out the changes of power grid after use the capacitance blocking device which is popular used by Guangdong power grid. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) has been used to find a better way to suppress the DC in power grid, and combined with NSGA to solve the mixed integer programming problem. The final data validation this method is valuable in engineering application. Article ID: 10077 Title: Analysis of Commutation Failure in Multi-Infeed HVDC System under Different Load Models Name: Zhongchao Yang Affiliation: South China University of Technology E-mail: [email protected] Abstract HVDC technology has been widely used in modern power system. On one hand, HVDC has the advantages of economy, high efficiency and strong controllability. While on the other hand, it makes the dynamic characteristics of the power system becoming more and more complex. That puts forward a new


challenge to system stability and raises new questions for power system simulation. This paper focuses on the interaction between AC and DC systems, especially the problem of commutation failure caused by AC system fault. Based on the data of China Southern Power Grid, this paper calculates the fault regions that may cause commutation failure and calculates the system critical clearance time under different load models, analyzes the impacts of different load models on commutation failure and the stability of AC/DC hybrid system. Article ID: 10078 Title: Study on Identification of Inductive-motors Load Partition Based on Coherence Name: Chengjun Xia Affiliation: South China University of Technology E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new inductive motors load equivalence algorithm based on coherence is proposed in this paper. In order to partite motors load rapidly and accurately, fuzzy c-means clustering along with particle swarm optimization (PSO-FCM) algorithm is proposed to identify coherent motors base on its physical essence of fuzziness. The merits of PSO algorithm are independent to initial value and convergent to optimum value rapidly, and the validity function is constructed to assess clustering validity. The test on IEEE 39-Bus System is presented to evaluate the effectiveness of the new algorithm, the membership matrix definite not only coherence group of motors but also correlation value of coherence between motors. The algorithm can be used to partite motor load based on coherency in dynamic equivalence with power system operating on different modes. Article ID: 10084 Title: Reasearch on the Transient Power Characteristics of the Inverter for Yun-Guang UHVDC

Article ID: 10099 Title: Stop Control Strategy of Modular Multilevel Converter Based HVDC System Name: Xia Chengjun Affiliation: South China University of Technology E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The stop control strategy of modular multilevel converter based HVDC transmission system is proposed. This stop process is divided into stages of energy feedback and energy consumption. The DC voltage controller is coordinated to the used modules per phase when active power is transmitted prior to reactive power, so that the energy is fed back to the AC power grid connected to the converter station which uses the fixed dc voltage controller. In addition, in view of the different forms connected to the grid, specifically when the converter station supplies power for passive network, the passive converter station can take a certain auxiliary trigger strategy to make its maximum energy feedback to the grid. Finally, a simulation system of the MMC-HVDC system is


constructed in Matlab/Simulink environment, and simulation results show that the proposed stop strategies are effective.

Article ID: 10082 Title: Experimental Investigation On The Effection Of Flow Regulator In A Multiple Evaporators/Condensers Loop Heat Pipe With Plastic Porous Structure Name: Xinyu Chang Affiliation: Nagoya University E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Multiple loop heat pipes which have two evaporators and two condensers in one loop are a kind of active heat transfer device. Since they have two evaporators and two condensers, the operating mode also becomes multiple. This work discusses the cases that multiple loop heat pipes were operated with one condenser at high temperature and the other at low temperature. To avoid the high temperature returning liquid and keep the multiple loop heat pipes work properly, the flow regulator which was made of polyethylene was designed, fabricated and applied in this test. The effect of flow regulator was confirmed and analyzed. In the test that large temperature difference existed between two sinks, it can be found according to the result that the flow regulator worked effectively and prevented the high temperature vapor to enter the inlet of common liquid line, which can keep the evaporators and returning liquid to operate at low temperature. With the increment of heat loads and the temperature difference between two sinks, the pressure difference between two condensers became larger and larger. When the pressure difference was larger than the flow regulator`s capillary force, the flow regulator could not work properly because the high temperature vapor began to flow through the flow regulator. According to the test data, the flow regulator can work properly within the sinks` temperature 0/60℃and the two evaporators` heat load 30/30W.

Fluid friction is however not the only source of loss in channel flows with heat transfer. For such flow problems, thermal energy degradation, in addition to mechanical energy degradation, add to the total loss in thermodynamic head. To assess the total loss in a channel with combined convection and radiation heat transfer, the conventional frictional head loss parameter is extended in this study. The analysis is applied to a 3D turbulent channel flow and identifies the critical locations in the flow domain where the losses are concentrated. The influence of Boltzmann number is discussed, and the best channel geometry for flows with combined heat transfer modes is also determined.

Article ID: 10047 Title: Investigations on structural safety of office room based on fire simulation and transient heat transfer analysis Name: Ah Young An Affiliation: Ewha Womans University E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This study aims at investigating heat propagations inside the structural members due to fire using fire simulation and transient heat transfer analysis. Toward that goal, fire simulation and transient heat transfer analysis for a 5-story building are carried out sequentially using Fire Dynamics Simu-lator (FDS) and ABAQUS 6.10-3, respectively. As results from fire simulation, temporal temperature information is obtained depending on various locations of the building, which is used as boundary condition for the structural elements generated in transient heat transfer analysis. Predictions from the transient heat transfer analysis show that the structural members are exposed spatially non-uniform temperatures which can cause significant eccentric deformation and acceleration of


structural damages. Article ID: 10049 Title: Development Strategy of Infrastructure Risk Assessment based Disaster Response and Management System Name: Eun-Ho Oh Affiliation: Korea Institute of Construction Technology E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Major infrastructures such as levee, dam, bridge, road, etc. have a significant meaning in that they are the means to support ordinary social and industrial activities and also protect human and physical assets at the occurrence of disaster. Especially, integrated risk management of SOC facili-ties provides the policy maker in charge of SOC facility safety and related disaster prevention with a reasonable means of decision making and ultimately contributes to improving the safety of the ap-plicable SOC facility. Furthermore, a variety of issues raised in the Sewol ferry disaster that occurred recently in Korea, such as, a proper response method and the relevant Golden time decision making at the occurrence of disaster, rapid grasping and reporting the situation on disaster sites, manage-ment and mobilization of resources for rescue and recover, loss of integrated control tower function, etc., might be occurred as well in facility disaster management. As the method of solving such issues adequately, this study suggests a strategy of new disaster response and management system. The analyses of Hazus-MH (FEMA) and DIMSuS (Purdue University) were comprehensively conducted, and based on the results required functions of new disaster response system of major infrastruc-ture and its development directions were suggested.

Name: Amal Bouaoud Affiliation: University of Le Havre E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In compartment fires (houses, buildings, underground, warehouse, etc.), smokes are a major danger during firemen intervention. Most of the time, they are at high temperature (&amp;gt;800&amp;#176;C) and they flow everywhere through many kinds of ducts, which leads to the propagation of the combustion by the creation other fires in places which may be far from the initial fire. In the presentation we will introduce a new approach of the problem, which allows to better follow the fire behavior and especially to detect the dangers that may appear and endanger firefighters. This approach consists in a mathematical analysis based on the comparison of moving averages centered in the past, calculated on the temperature recordings of the smokes. As a consequence, this method may allow improving decision support in real time and therefore to improve the security and the efficiency of firefighters in their operations against that kind of fires. Article ID: 10085 Title: Danger detection during fight against com-partment-fire using moving averages in temperature recordings Name: Michel Lebey Affiliation: University of Le Havre E-mail: [email protected] Abstract In compartment fires (houses, buildings, underground, warehouse, etc.), smokes are a major danger during firemen intervention.

Article ID: 10108 Title: Effects on Strengths of Cement Mortar When Using Incinerator Bottom Ash as Fine Aggregate Name: Yang Min-Jen Affiliation: National Pingtung University of Science and Technology E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The main purpose of this paper is to study the feasibility of using the Incinerator bottom ash fine aggregate to replace natural fine aggregate in the cement mortar products. The research adopts high cement content mortar to conduct the experiment, in which the weight ratio of ce-ment/aggregate is 1/2. The experiment uses Incinerator bottom ash fine aggregates, which passes through #16 sieve, and natural sand of the same size as the aggregate, and separates mortar specimens into two main categories based on different W/C ratio. Moreover, different proportions of furnace slag and F-class are used to replace a portion of cement so as to explore the influence on strength of Incinerator bottom ash aggregates mortar by adding the two admixtures. The study shows that, based on the 1:2 cement/aggregate weight ratio, Incinerator bottom ash fine aggre-gates mortar, unit weight around 1.8 g/cm3, is 20% lighter natural fine aggregate mortar, unit weight around 2.2 g/cm3. The Incinerator bottom ash fine aggregates mortar can only reach 60%-70% the compressive strength of natural fine aggregates mortar. Direct tensile strength and flexural tensile strength

tests are 15% and 30% of compressive strength respectively, due to the irregular strength development, which does not follow general concepts, such as low W/C ratio and mineral admixtures will not necessarily help in strength development in Incinerator bottom ash fine aggregates mortar. Article ID: 10111 Title: Structural Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete for Slabs on Ground Name: Philipp Loeber Affiliation: University of Applied Sciences E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This paper aims to contribute to the classification and specification of glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) and to deal with the question if structural glass fiber reinforced concrete as a special kind of glass fiber reinforced concrete is suited for use in load-bearing members. Despite excellent material properties, the use of glass fibers in a concrete matrix is carried out so far only in non-structural elements or as a modification for the prevention of shrinkage cracks. The aim of research at the University of Applied Sciences in Leipzig is the use of alkali-resistant macro glass fibers as concrete reinforcement in structural elements as an alternative to steel fiber reinforcement. Slabs on ground, as an example for structural members, provide a sensible application for the new material because they can be casted as load bearing and non-loadbearing and are mostly made of steel fiber reinforced concrete. In the future, structural glass fiber reinforced concrete shall provide a simple and visually appealing alternative to conventional steel bar or steel fiber reinforced concrete. The glass fibers can also be used in combination with conventional reinforcing bars or mat reinforcements. Initial investigations have announced some potential. Article ID: 10050 Title: Understanding of Earthquake Damage Pattern


Through Geomorphological Approach: A Case Study of 2006 Earthquake in Bantul, Yogyakarta, Indonesia Name: Dwi Wahyuni Nurwihastuti Affiliation: State University of Medan E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The last major earthquake in Bantul caused severe damage occurred on May 27th, 2006. The dam-ages in the flat area of Bantul had a certain pattern. The damages pattern controlled the subsurface characteristic below the flat area. Understanding earthquake damage pattern through geomor-phological approach is important for earthquake hazard analysis. The techniques of remote sensing and Geographical Information Systems were applied to analyze earthquake damage pattern and geomorphological characteristics. Gravity analysis was used to identify the subsurface structure and the basement depth. While geoelectric analysis was used to identify sediment depth. Moreover, spatial correlation analysis was used to identify the relationship between the earthquake damage, geomorphological characteristics, and subsurface characteristics. The results show that fluvial, marine, and aeolian landforms have low rock density value based on gravity analysis. These indicate that they were composed by thick unconsolidated material of Qu-aternary alluvium. While denudational, structural, and solutional landforms composed by material of Tertiary rocks have high rock density value. The severe damage occurred in the area that have a lower value of local gravity and deeper basement. In contrast, the slight damage occurred in the area that have higher values of local gravity and shallower basement. Moreover, the severe damage occurred in areas of thicker sediment that consist of unconsolidated material. Consequently, the area of unconsolidated material that have deeper basement and thicker sediment is prone to earthquake. Article ID: 10104

Article ID: 10121 Title: How water-development nexus can reunite Central Asia? Name: Zulfiya Mamatova Affiliation: Wageningen University E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Zulfiya MAMATOVA, PhD Candidate at the Wageningen University, the Netherlands Dilshod IBROKHIMOV, PhD Candidate at the Academy of Public Administration under the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan No country stands alone, even if the difference between them seems to be irreconcilable. In a time of water crisis and a warming climate when the national interests prevail in Central Asia, there are many determining factors that can smooth out differences and lead to the economic prosperity at the regional level. For the last two decades Central Asian water issue is considered by foreign experts as a likely source of conflict.

Nevertheless, countries in the region can resolve this issue if they keep in mind that economic development will be provided only by mutual dialogue and not by confrontation. With the population more than 63 million people five Central Asian republics (Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan) are located in the basins of the transboundary rivers of Central Asia, the Amudarya and Syrdarya that have historically formed one of the largest and oldest region irrigated agriculture in the world and this single hydrological system with the area over four millions km2. As livelihoods and economies rely heavily upon the water recourses they are considered as a strategic resource. It is a basic resource for agriculture and energy supply. In general, the research findings will lead the discussion towards identifying the strategy for reducing the potential for conflict over water issues, activating regional economic cooperation, ensuring economic growth and improving interstate mutual understanding in Central Asia. Article ID: 10114 Title: Assessment of physical vulnerability in Santo Domingo de Heredia, Costa Rica, Central America Name: Daniel Solis Affiliation: University of Costa Rica E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This work assesses the physical vulnerability of the Santo Domingo Canton in the province of Heredia in Costa Rica. We evaluate the vulnerability of areas located in high risk zones as well as the structural resistance of structures of the canton and then combine them to obtain an index of Physical Vulnerability. Most of the communities in high risk areas in this Canton have not been properly identified and mapped. This identification and mapping will enhance the management of disaster risks, reduce the infrastructure vulnerability and protect vulnerable families in there . We created an index ranging between 0 and 1 for each indicator of physical


vulnerability (human settlements in areas of high risk and structural resistance) and another similar index resulting from the combination of vulnerability information from both indicators. The greater part of the territory of Santo Domingo has low physical vulnerability but there are critical sites in the West and the East of the canton.

Article ID: 10024 Title: A Graduated Nonconvex Regularization for Sparse High Dimensional Model Estimation Name: Yuying Li Affiliation: University of Waterloo E-mail: [email protected]

Abstract Many high dimensional data mining problems can be formulated as minimizing an empirical loss function with a penalty proportional to the number of variables required to describe a model. We propose a graduated non-convexification method to facilitate tracking of a global minimizer of this problem. We prove that under some conditions the proposed regularization problem using the continuous piecewise linear approximation is equivalent to the original l_0 regularization problem. In addition, a family of graduated nonconvex approximations are proposed to approximate its l_1 continuous approximation. Computational results are presented to illustrate the performance. Article ID: 10052 Title: Parallel K-Means Algorithm for Shared Memory Multiprocessors Name: Tayfun Kucukyilmaz Affiliation: University of Turkish Aeronautical Association E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Clustering is the task of assigning a set of instances into groups in such a way that is dissimilarity of instances within each group is minimized. Clustering is widely used in several areas such as data mining, pattern recognition, machine learning, image processing, computer vision and etc. K-means is a popular clustering algorithm which partitions instances into a fixed number clusters in an iterative fashion. Although k-means is considered to be a poor clustering algorithm in terms of result quality, due to its simplicity, speed on practical applications, and iterative nature it is selected as one of the top 10 algorithms in data mining [1]. Parallelization of k-means is also studied during the last 2 decades. Most of these work concentrate on shared-nothing architectures. With the advent of current technological advances on GPU technology, implementation of the k-means algorithm on shared memory architectures recently start to attract some attention. However, to


the best of our knowledge, no in-depth analysis on the performance of k-means on shared memory multiprocessors is done in the literature. In this work, our aim is to fill this gap by providing theoretical analysis on the performance of k-means algorithm and presenting extensive tests on a shared memory architecture.

Article ID: 10102 Title: Cognitive Robotics: For Never was a Story of More Woe than This Name: Emanuel Diamant Affiliation: VIDIA-mant E-mail: [email protected] Abstract We are now on the verge of the next technical revolution – robots are going to invade our lives. However, to interact with humans or to be incorporated into a human “collective” robots have to be provided with some human-like cognitive abilities. What does it mean? – Nobody knows. But, robotics research communities are trying hard to find out a way to cope with this problem. Meanwhile, despite abundant funding these efforts did not lead to any meaningful result (only in Europe, only in the past ten years, Cognitive Robotics research funding has reached a ceiling of 1.39 billion euros). In the next ten years, a similar budget is going to be spent to tackle the Cognitive Robotics problems in the frame of the Human Brain Project. There is no reason to expect that this time the result will be different. We would like to try to explain why we are so unhappy about this. Article ID: 10118 Title: Dynamic Characteristics of Selemion CMV-based IPMC Actuators in High Humidity Environment Name: Harrison Ngetha Affiliation: Gifu University E-mail: [email protected]


Abstract Electrically-induced bending of Selemion IPMC is caused by the charge induced into the IPMC. This induced charge quantity is susceptible to the absolute humidity of environment. There are two types of charges, the charge causing bending and the rest of charge that causes no bending. In the high humidity environments, where absolute humidity is above 10 gm-3, the quantity of charge causing no bending accounts for the large part of whole charge induced into the Selemion IPMC, while quantity of such charge is negligibly small at the absolute humidity of less than 10 gm-3. Esti-mating the quantity of those two types of charges individually, we successively analyzed the bending stability of Selemion IPMC at the absolute humidity above 10 gm-3. Consequently, we deduced the following conclusions. (i) There exists a large time delay in the current in response to the voltage input, (ii) Current is highly dumping, and (iii) Bending behavior is marginally stable under the input of any frequency.

The relationship between EOG and gaze distance is linear. Detection object position in 3-dimensional area using gaze motion was proposed in this research. To calculate distance of gaze motion in pixel unit, affine transform method was developed. The homogeneous matrix from five geometry process: transformation-1, rotation, transformation-2, shear, and dilatation was determined. To give tracking ability in 3-dimensional area, two cameras were attached each in front of and top side of object. The cameras were accessed by voluntary blink.

The EOG characteristic of blink eye was determined based on the absolute ratio between positive peak and negative peak which was greater than. Every blinks toggled the active camera. The position of object was given by the perceived locations from the two cameras. Every movement in pixel coordinate was converted into centimeter unit. This perceived location than used to calculate to the base coordinate. The result shows that the blink method successfully accessed the camera. Both of the cameras could show the location of object from their side. Calculating the gaze distance using affine transform was also give a satisfied result. Using this method controlling a machine in 3-dimensional area by EOG could be developed. Article ID: 10101 Title: A Framework Study for Healthcare Information Systems Name: Celal Ceken Affiliation: Sakarya University E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Healthcare information systems are crucial components for better coordination of healthcare. They focus on the proper generation, transmission, storage, and retrieval of health data. It is obvious that production of accurate, relevant, and timely health information is foundation of good decision making. Rapid progress in wireless communications and em- bedded systems result in wireless sensor networks to be employed even in biomedical applications as well as their prominent deployment options. This study proposes a healthcare information system framework which consists of such components as; wireless sensor networks, cellular networks, a MATLAB interface, a database, and a web based monitoring interface. A case study that includes sensing, transferring, storing and web based monitoring processes of ECG signal is also introduced in the study, so that the behavior of the system developed can be tested. The results show that the framework presented here can not only be employed as a


healthcare information system, but it can also be used as an infrastructure in related research activities and consequently, lots of time can be saved from creating an experimental environment. Article ID: 10130 Title: A Humanoid Robot Gait Planning and its Stability Validation Name: Zeng Jian Affiliation: University of Science and Technology of China E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Gait planning based on linear inverted pendulum (LIPM) on structured road surface can be quickly generated because of the simple model and definite

physical meaning. However, over-simplification of the model and discontents of zero velocity and acceleration boundary conditions when robot starts and stops walking lead to obvious difference between the model and the real robot. In this paper, parameterized gait is planned and trajectories’ smoothness of each joint angle and centroid are ensured using the 3-D LIPM theory. Static walking method is used to satisfy zero velocity and acceleration boundary conditions. Besides, a Multi-link model is built to validate the stability. Simulation experiments show that: despite of some deviation from the theoretical solution, the actual zero-moment point (ZMP) is still within the support polygon, and the robot walks steadily. In consequence, the rationality and validity of model simplification of LIPM is demonstrated.
