The objectives of this study focused on measuring chlorophyll fluorescence related to drought stress comparing some parameters. Almost parameters were declined although they were not significant on the basis of mean values of fluorescence of total leaf area. While the ratio of fluorescence intensity variable chlorophyll ($F_V$) to fluorescence intensity maximal chlorophyll ($F_M$) was not changed, the effective quantum yield of photochemical energy conversion in photosystemII (${\Phi}PSII$) and chlorophyll fluorescence decrease ratio ($R_{fd}$) were slightly reduced, indicating inhibition of the electron transport from quinone bind protein A ($Q_A$) to quinone bind protein B ($Q_B$). Some parameters such as non-photochemical quenching rate ($NPQ_{_-LSS}$) and coefficients of non-photochemical quenching of variable fluorescence (qN) in mid-zone of leaf and near petiole zone leaf were significantly enhanced within 4 days after drought stress, which can be used as physiological stress parameters. Decrease in ${\Phi}PSII$ could was significantly measured in all leaf zones. In conclusion, three parametric evidences for chlorophyll fluorescence responses such as ${\Phi}PSII$, NPQ, and qN insinuated the possibility of photophysiological indices under drought stress.

Flexible roll forming allows profiles to have variable cross-sections. However, the profile may have some shape errors, such as, warping which is a major defect. The shape error is induced by geometrical deviations in both the concave zone and the convex zone. In the current study, flexible roll forming was modeled with FE simulations to analyze the shape error and the longitudinal strain distribution along the flange section over the profile. A distribution of analytically calculated longitudinal strains was used to develop relationships between the shape error and the longitudinal strain distribution as a function of the defined shape parameters for the profile. The FE simulations showed that the shape error is primarily affected by the deviations between the distribution of analytically calculated longitudinal strain and the longitudinal strain distribution of the profile. The results show that the shape error can be controlled by designing the shape parameters to control the geometrical deviations at the flange section in the transition zones.

Solid Rocket Motor(SRM) has advantages such as - high specific impulse, operational safety and simplicity in design and manufacturing process but thrust magnitude can't be controlled. For studying of pintle nozzle that can control the thrust magnitude of SRM, cold flow test and numerical analysis about needle type pintle shape were performed and results were presented in this paper. As the results of this study, pintle tip's shape and nozzle contour were important design parameters because thrust performance and variable thrust range of pintle nozzle depend on them. Especially, the thrust of needle typed pintle nozzle adopted in this test was predicted 13% higher than normal nozzle without pintle.

For the behavior of the wholesale spot price, a regime switching model with time-varying transition probabilities was estimated using the data from the PJM (Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland) market. By including the temperature as an explanatory variable in the transition probability equations, the threshold effect of changing regime is clearly enhanced. And hence the predictability of the price spikes was improved. This means that the model showed a very clear threshold effect, with a low probability of switching for low loads and low temperatures and a high probability for high loads and high temperatures. And temperature showed a clearer threshold effect than load does. This implies that weather-related contracts may help to hedge against the risk in the cost of buying electricity during a summer.

This paper describes a daily operation scheduling of cogeneration systems using Genetic Algorithm. The simulation was performed in the case of bottoming cycle. The efficiency of cogeneration system which has nonlinear characteristic is obtained by the least square method based on the real data of industrial cogeneration system. In this paper, Genetic Algorithm is coded as a vector of floating point representation which can reduce computation time and obtain high precision The simulated results show that the genetic algorithm can be efficiently applied to establish the operation scheduling.

혈관에 흐르는 혈류 속도의 측정은 혈압 및 심박수와 관련된 혈류의 역학적 변화를 관찰하는 데 있어서 주로 사용되는 방법 중의 하나이다. 이 혈류 속도는 일반적으로 도플러 효과에 의하여 주파수가 변화하는 현상을 이용하여 추정하게 된다. 그런데 기존의 주파수 추정 방법들은 시불변 시스템을 가정하고 있지만 실제 혈관 속은 혈구가 일정하지 않은 속도를 갖는 시변 시스템이라 할 수 있기 때문에 이러한 시변 특성이 강한 경우 기존의 방법을 이용하게 되면 그 성능이 저하되는 경향을 보인다. 또 피시험자의 몸 상태에 따라서 서로 다른 주파수 변화 추이를 보이므로 하나의 고정 변수로써 최적화된 성능을 기대하기도 어렵다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 시변 시스템에서 좋은 성능을 갖는 가변 망각 인자(variable forgetting factor, VFF)를 사용한 순환적인 완전 최소 자승법(recursive total least squares, RTLS) 기법을 이용한 주파수 추정 방법을 제안한다. RTLS란 TLS 기법을 순차적으로 계산하는 방법으로 시변 적응력을 향상시키는 방법이다. 또한 이 기법에 가변 망각 인자(VFF)를 적용시키는 것은 시변 시스템에서 외부적인 변화에 대하여 좀더 효율적으로 대응할 수 있기 위함이다. 기존의 방법과 성능 비교를 위하여 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 하였으며 그 결과 시변 시스템에서 본 논문에서 제안한 VFF를 이 용한 RTLS 기법이 보다 향상된 성능을 가지고 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다.

This paper examines the problems of big data analysis education and suggests ways to solve them. Big data is a trend that the characteristic of big data is evolving from V3 to V5. For this reason, big data analysis education must take V5 into account. Because increased uncertainty can increase the risk of data analysis, internal and external structured/semi-structured data as well as disturbance factors should be analyzed to improve the reliability of the data. And when using opinion mining, error that is easy to perceive is variability and veracity. The veracity of the data can be increased when data analysis is performed against uncertain situations created by various variables and options. It is the node analysis of the textom(텍스톰) and NodeXL that students and researchers mainly use in the analysis of the association network. Social network analysis should be able to get meaningful results and predict future by analyzing the current situation based on dark data gained.

In this paper, we propose a turbine mass flow rate model for a variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) using an artificial neural network (ANN). The model predicts the turbine mass flow rate using the VGT vane position, engine rotational speed, exhaust manifold pressure, exhaust manifold temperature, and turbine outlet pressure. The ANN is used for the estimation of the effective flow area. In order to validate the results estimated by the proposed model, we have compared estimation results with engine experimental results. The results, in addition, represent improved estimation accuracy when compared with the performance using the turbine map.

결정질 태양전지에서 도핑(Doping)은 반도체(Semiconductor)의 PN 접합(Junction)을 형성하는 중요한 역할을 한다. 도핑은 반도체에 불순물(Dopant)을 주입하는 공정으로 고온에서 진행되며 온도는 중요한 변수(Parameter)로 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 여러 가지 에미터(emitter)층 형성방법 중에 가장 저가이면서 공정과정이 간단하며 대면적 도핑이 용의한 Spray 방법을 통해 효과적인 에미터 층 형성의 최적화를 위해 DI water에 각각 1%, 3%, 5% 7%로 희석된 H3PO4용액 으로 850$^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 시간을 가변해 가며 최적화된 면저항과 표면농도 특성을 분석하였다. 도핑소스가 웨이퍼(wafer) 각각의 표면에 흡착시킨 후 오븐에 넣어 150$^{\circ}C$에서 5분간 건조시킨 후 퍼니스(furance)에 넣어 시간을 가변해 가며 도핑시켰다. Spray 방식은 기존의 방식보다 저렴하고 In-line 공정에 적합하며 대용량으로 전환이 쉽다는 많은 장점을 가지고 있다. 도핑시 먼저 spray를 이용하여 웨이퍼 표면에 균일하게 용액을 흡착시킨 후 오븐에서 150$^{\circ}C$에서 5분간 건조 후 furnace에 넣어 850$^{\circ}C$에서 시간을 가변 해가며 실험하였다. H3PO4용액의 비율이 1%일 때는 2분 이상 열처리를 하였을 때 60${\Omega}/{\Box}$ 이하로 내려가지 않았다. 이는 최초 표면농도가 낮아 더 이상 확산되지 않음을 의미한다. 또한 H3PO4의 비율이 3% 이상일 때는 열처리 시간이 1분 이하일 때 면저항의 변화가 거의 없었으나 2분 이상일 때는 시간에 따라서 점차 낮아졌으며 균일도 역시 좋아졌다. 이는 H3PO4의 비율이 3% 이상일 때는 표면농도가 높아서 1분 이하의 열처리 시간에서는 확산해 들어가는 양이 거의 같음을 알 수 있었다.
