The indirect-contact ECG measurement is a newly developed method for unconstrained and nonconscious measurement in daily life. This study introduced a new method of electrode circuit design developed for reducing the 60Hz power line noise observed at the indirect-contact ECG measurement. By the introduced common-mode-driven shielding, the voltage of the electrical shield surrounding the capacitive coupling electrode is maintained at the same as the common mode voltage. Though the method cannot reduce the level of common mode voltage itself, that reduces effectively the differential mode noise converted from the common mode voltage by the difference of cloth impedance between the two capacitive coupling electrode. The experiment results using the actual indirect-contact ECG showed that the 60Hz power line noise was reduced remarkably though the reduction ratio was smaller than the expected by the theory. Especially, the reduction ratio became large for the large difference of cloth. It is expected that the introduced method is useful for reducing the power line noise under condition of poor electrical grounding.

Optical parametric amplification has been analyzed for the Cerenkov-idler configuration in planar waveguides. The coupled-mode theory is employed for the analysis. The coupled-mode equations are derived and the approximate analytic solution is obtained for no pump depletion. From the analytic solution, it is shown that the signal power gain can be enhanced as the Cerenkov radiation angle of the idler approaches to zero. The numerical example is also shown for the effect of the Cerenkov radiation angle approaching zero.

A new mode of operation is observed in this paper which involves the tractive wave interaction between a cyclotron ways and a synchronous electron beam. The wave interaction is analysed by using both electron dynamics and coupled-mode methods. The gain expression derived from the analysis prognoses a new type of improved uhf amplifier with low noise and high power. Based on the theoretical analysis, experimental tubes have been designed, constructed arid exporimented. As a result, a low noise amplifier is anticipated well into millimeter lave region.

The transmission spectra, the wavelength tunability. and the polarization characteristics of mechanically induced long-period fiber gratings (LPFG's) are investigated experimentally and analyzed theoretically. The transmission and mode coupling characteristics of the fabricated LPFG's agree well with the theoretical results. The resonant wavelengths at which the mode coupling occurs can be tuned over 180 nm and the peak wavelengths for of oethogonally polarized lights are split by -9 nm.

부분구조 합성법(substructuring or substructure synthesis)은 부분구조(substructure)의 주파수 응답함수(FRFs, frequency response functions)를 이용하여 합성된 전체 구조물의 동특성(dynamic behavior)을 파악하는 기술로서 이에 관한 이론은 명확하며 간단하다. 즉, 역행렬 계산과 같은 기본적인 행렬연산으로 부분구조 합성을 수행한다. 그러나, 여러 가지 요인으로 인하여 계산된 합성 결과는 실제로 결합된 전체 구조물의 동특성과는 차이를 보인다. 현실적인 이유로 고려하지 못하는 회전자유도와 실험에서 수반되는 여러 가지 측정오차는 주요한 요인이며 이에 대한 연구 또한 많이 진행되었다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 요인 중, 상대적으로 덜 중요하게 평가된 모드자름 오차(modal truncation error)의 영향을 고려한다. 단순한 구조물에 대하여 모의실험을 수행함으로써, 모드자름 오차로 인하여 완전히 잘못된 합성 결과가 나을 수 있다는 것을 보인다. 측정된 FRE를 이용하여 이러한 오차를 보정(compensation)하는 소개하고 이를 대상 구조물에 적용하여 모드자름 오차의 영향을 상당히 줄일 수 있다는 것을 보인다. 복잡한(complicated) 구조물에 대하여 모드자름 오차의 영향을 줄이기 위해서 모든 FRFs를 보정하는 것은 어려우므로 현실적인 대안을 모색한다.

Optical wavelength filters based on directional couplers are rigorously designed and analyzed by Modal Transmission-Line Theory (MTLT). The conventional parallel directional coupler is utilized to implement a narrow-band filter, and it takes up the coupler with tapered structure as a wide-band filter. The power transfers of TE/TM modes in narrow-band filters are maximized at ${\lambda}=1.303{\mu}m\;and\;1.1496{\mu}m$, and the optical bandwidths are then 30nm and 10nm, respectively. Furthermore, when the coupling lengths of TE/TM modes in wide-band filters operating at ${\lambda}=1.55{\mu}m$ are selected as $183{\mu}m\;and\;178{\mu}m$, those are operated as the stop-band and pass-band filters, respectively.

In this paper, a multi-layer dual-band bandpass filter using aperture-coupling is proposed. Two coupling paths are formed with the two apertures which exist between two dual-mode resonators. The coupling coefficients can be adjusted without changing the shape of resonators. The bandwidth of the second passband can be adjusted without affecting the bandwidth of the first passband using the size of an aperture between stubs of the dual-mode resonator. The aperture coupling mechanism is theoretically analysed. The dual-mode bandpass filter for the 2.4 GHz WLAN, 3.5 GHz WiMax was designed and fabricated. The fabricated filter shows centered 2.45 GHz and 3.5 GHz with 9 % and 8 % of the bandwidth.

An optical directional coupler, which consists of quantum wells with nanothickness, is designed by using Modal Transmission Line Theory (MTLT). To demonstrate the validity and usefulness, the propagation characteristics and the coupling efficiencies are rigorously evaluated at nanoscale couplers, which consist of double quantum wells with different effective masses. The numerical result reveals that the coupling efficiency of nanoscale couplers is maximized at a coupling length 2052.3 nm, if the total electron energy is 83.9 meV. Furthermore, the coupler operates as a filter with narrower band as the barrier thickness increases.

An investigation was performed to study the predicting the joint strength of mechanical fasteners. Bearing failure is most important failure mode for designing joint. So in this study, the prediction method in consideration with bearing failure was chosen. In the proposed method, the characteristic length is combined with the Yamada-Sun failure criterion, Tsai-Hill failure criterion and characteristic length for Tension and Compression is determined from investigation. Especially the length of compression is determined from the "bearing failure test" that newly conceived to take bearing failure into consideration. The proposed prediction method was applied to quasi-isotropic carbon/epoxy joint showing net-tension and bearing failure experimentally. Good agreement was found between the predicted and experimental result for each joint geometry. geometry.

A rigorous modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) based on effective dielectric method (EDM) is introduced and developed to analyze the polarization beam-splitting of optical rib-type directional coupler with three guiding layers. Furthermore, to confirm the validity of approach proposed in this paper, we compare our results with those ones of BeamPROP, which is a commercial software package used widely. Consequently, the numerical results reveal that the hybrid modes incident into a guiding channel of rib-type coupler are split well through upper and lower guiding channels in a polarization length.
