  • Solar Radiation Estimation Algorithm and Field Verification in Taiwan
    energies Article Solar Radiation Estimation Algorithm and Field Verification in Taiwan Ping-Huan Kuo 1 ID , Hsin-Chuan Chen 2 and Chiou-Jye Huang 3,* ID 1 Computer and Intelligent Robot Program for Bachelor Degree, National Pingtung University, Pingtung 90004, Taiwan; [email protected] 2 School of Computer Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China Zhongshan Institute, Zhongshan 528402, China; [email protected] 3 School of Electrical Engineering and Automation, Jiangxi University of Science and Technology, Ganzhou 341000, China * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 5 May 2018; Accepted: 22 May 2018; Published: 29 May 2018 Abstract: The power generation potential of a solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation system is closely related to the on-site solar radiation, and sunshine conditions are an important reference index for evaluating the installation of a solar PV system. Meanwhile, the long-term operation and maintenance of a PV system needs solar radiation information as a reference for system performance evaluation. Obtaining solar radiation information through the installation of irradiation monitoring stations is often very costly, and the cost of sustaining the reliability of the monitoring system, Internet stability and subsequent operation and maintenance can often be alarming. Therefore, the establishment of a solar radiation estimation model can reduce the installation of monitoring stations and decrease the cost of obtaining solar radiation information. In this study, we use an inverse distance weighting algorithm to establish the solar radiation estimation model. The model was built by obtaining information from 20 solar radiation monitoring stations in central and southern Taiwan, and field verification was implemented at Yuan Chang Township town hall and the Tainan Liujia campus.

  • A New Fuzzy DEA/AHP Methodology for the Facility Layout Problem in a Fuzzy Environment
    Proceedings of the 4th World Congress on Mechanical, Chemical, and Material Engineering (MCM'18) Madrid, Spain – August 16 – 18, 2018 Paper No. ICMIE 115 DOI: 10.11159/icmie18.115 A New Fuzzy DEA/AHP Methodology for the Facility Layout Problem in a Fuzzy Environment C.-K. Hu1, F.-B. Liu2, C.-F. Hu3 1Department of International Business, Kao Yuan University No. 1821, Jhongshan Rd., Lujhu, Kaohsiung, Taiwan [email protected] 2Department of Mechanical and Automation Engineering, I-Shou University No.1, Sec. 1, Syuecheng Rd., Dashu District, Kaohsiung, Taiwan [email protected] 3Department of Applied Mathematics, National Chiayi University No. 300 Syuefu Rd., Chiayi, Taiwan [email protected] Extended Abstract The facility layout problem has been a subject of tremendous interest in manufacturing system. It is concerned with the allocation of activities to space such that a set of criteria is met and/or some objectives are optimized. A number of formulations have been developed for the facility layout problem. Most of them involve over simplifying assumptions and request overwhelming computational efforts such that they cannot be manipulated with ease in practice [1]. To cope with the difficulties being the cause of this complexity and the vagueness involved in the real-world decision-making problem, this work develops a novel approach combining the Tchebycheff model in fuzzy data envelopment analysis (DEA) and the analytical hierarchical process (AHP) for evaluating the facility layout problem with multiple fuzzy criteria. The hybrid fuzzy DEA/AHP approach takes the best of both fuzzy DEA and AHP methods by avoiding the pitfalls of each.

Finalists this year reflect a wide geographic spread with a growth in new communities making their debut at the finals.

  • Globalization, Land Expropriation, and Community Resistance: a Case Study in Wanbao Community, Miaoli County, Taiwan by Janice H
    GLOBALIZATION, LAND EXPROPRIATION, AND COMMUNITY RESISTANCE: A CASE STUDY IN WANBAO COMMUNITY, MIAOLI COUNTY, TAIWAN BY JANICE HSU THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Urban Planning in Urban Planning in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Master’s Committee: Professor Faranak Miraftab Professor Shih-Jung Hsu, National Chengchi University, Taiwan Abstract The Land Expropriation Act of Taiwan, enacted in the year 2000, has been abused by the local authorities without proper oversight from the public, and this abuse has often caused displacements without reasonable compensation. The abuse of land expropriation can be devastating to those who live in the rural areas of Taiwan, where agricultural land for development is abundant and farmers are the culturally disadvantaged group of the society. This research specifically focuses on the land expropriation experience of Wanbao Community, a rural farming community located in the middle-west part of Taiwan that has successfully resisted land expropriation through a grassroots movement. This paper strives to offer the following: a comprehensive understanding of the legitimization of land expropriation from the local as well as the global perspective; background information on the rise of land expropriation in Taiwan; and the effects of such processes on farmers’ social status. Moreover, based on field research in Wanbao Community, this thesis analyzes the keys to successful resistance to land expropriation and discusses possible planning solutions to prevent it. Research shows that arbitrary land expropriation in Taiwan can be propelled by the state’s pursuit of current trends in global capitalism, also known as globalization, and the urban citizens’ pursuit of a modern lifestyle.

The quality of coaching and training is the key factor in the performance of young players during competition. Wireless sensor network (WSN) technology has been developed to index, navigate, store, and analyze data in sports. We investigated the correlations between the performance of college baseball players during a competition game and the following three factors: (1) athletes’ physical fitness, (2) athletes’ psychological state, and (3) the training environment. Wireless wearable devices were applied in this research to construct the indicators for monitoring the development of players in terms of the three aforementioned factors during routine training.
