In this study, a reliability-based design optimization of a 130-m class fixed-type offshore platform, to be installed in the North Sea, was carried out, while considering environmental, material, and manufacturing uncertainties to enhance its structural safety and economic aspects. For the reliability analysis, and reliability-based design optimization of the structural integrity, unity check values (defined as the ratio between working and allowable stress, for axial, bending, and shear stresses), of the members of the offshore platform were considered as constraints. Weight of the supporting jacket structure was minimized to reduce the manufacturing cost of the offshore platform. Statistical characteristics of uncertainties were defined based on observed and measured data references. Reliability analysis and reliability-based design optimization of a jacket-type offshore structure were computationally burdensome due to the large number of members; therefore, we suggested a method for variable screening, based on the importance of their output responses, to reduce the dimension of the problem. Furthermore, a deterministic design optimization was carried out prior to the reliability-based design optimization, to improve overall computational efficiency. Finally, the optimal design obtained was compared with the conventional rule-based offshore platform design in terms of safety and cost.

Nut fasteners that require ultra-precise control are required in the overall manufacturing industry including electronic products that are currently developing with the automobile industry. Important performance factors when tightening nuts include loosening due to insufficient fastening force, breakage due to excessive fastening, Tightening torque and angle are required to maintain and improve the assembling quality and ensure the life of the product. Nut fasteners, which are now marketed under the name Nut Runner, require high torque and precision torque control, precision angle control, and high speed operation for increased production, and are required for sophisticated torque control dedicated to high output BLDC motors and nut fasteners. It is demanded to develop a high-precision torque control driver and a high-speed, low-speed, high-response precision speed control system, but it does not satisfy the high precision, high torque and high speed operation characteristics required by customers. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a control technique of BLDC motor variable speed control and nut runner based on vector control and torque control based on coordinate transformation of d axis and q axis that can realize low vibration and low noise even at accurate tightening torque and high speed rotation. The performance results were analyzed to confirm that the proposed control satisfies the nut runner performance. In addition, it is confirmed that the pattern is programmed by One-Stage operation clamping method and it is tightened to the target torque exactly after 10,000 [rpm] high speed operation. The problem of tightening torque detection by torque ripple is also solved by using disturbance observer Respectively.

The purpose of this study is to analyze elementary school teachers' mindsets about students' mathematical ability. For this purpose, we developed a 20-item scale to measure teachers' mindset through a review of the literature. In order to verify the developed scale, a survey was conducted among 158 elementary school teachers, and the structure of the items was analyzed by exploratory factor analysis. As a result, three factors were identified: "growth mindset toward change in mathematical ability", "fixed mindset toward change in mathematical ability", and "mindset toward innate mathematical ability". Four groups were distinguished by latent profile analysis, using the scores on these three factors as variables, to characterize the different groups of teachers based on their mindset. The groups with the most participants in the study were, in order, growth mindset teachers, neutral mindset teachers, strong growth mindset teachers, and fixed mindset teachers. Interviews were also conducted with representative participants from each group to learn more about the characteristics of teachers in each profile. Based on the results of the study, we discussed the implications of mindset in terms of the classification of teachers' mindset about students' mathematical ability, the popularity of growth mindset among elementary school teachers in Korea, and research on teachers' mindset about innate mathematical ability.

As a method of seismic-design for pile-supported wharves, equivalent static analysis, response spectrum analysis, and time history analysis method are applied. Among them, the response spectrum analysis is widely used to obtain the maximum response of a structure. Because the ground is not modeled in the response spectrum analysis of pile-supported wharves, the amplified input ground acceleration should be calculated by ground classification or seismic response analysis. However, it is difficult to calculate the input ground acceleration through ground classification because the pile-supported wharf is build on inclined ground, the methods to calculate the input ground acceleration proposed in the standards are different. Therefore, in this study, the dynamic centrifuge model tests and the response spectrum analysis were carried out to calculate the appropriate input ground acceleration. The pile moment in response spectrum analysis and the dynamic centrifuge model tests were compared. As a result of comparison, it was shown that the response spectrum analysis results using the amplified acceleration in the ground surface were appropriate.

The characteristics of the responses obtained in thermosonic tests are investigated in this study to improve the performance of a thermosonic test system. Thermosonic tests are conducted with an acoustic horn with high power capability to investigate the characteristics of the vibration produced in turbine blades with complex geometry. The influences of the excitation signal that is input to the horn and the coupling methods between a clamp and the acoustic horn on the characteristics of the vibration excited in a component are presented. As a result, an excitation method with a fast narrow band chirp test (sweep test) and a stud coupling is proposed as an excitation method for thermosonic testing. This method can be applied to different types of turbine blades and also to other components.

On-line/off-line signature is a technique for performing heavy computations required for signature generation in the off-line stage and completing the final signature by a simple operation in the online stage. This is suitable for application environments that require immediate signing responses to multiple users. In this paper, we propose two new on-line/off-line signature schemes based on RSA problem. The first technique can generate a signature with a fixed base exponentiation when signing online, and the second technique can complete an online signature with a very simple calculation such as a hash operation. The security of both signatures is based on the RSA problem, which is proven to be tightly secure without security loss in the random oracle model.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 에너지 효율적인 네트워크 구성을 위해 데이터를 수집하는 싱크 노드에 이동성을 적용시킨 모바일 싱크를 이용한 데이터 수집 기법이 활발하게 연구되고 있다. 하지만 최근 모바일 싱크를 적용한 데이터 수집 기법에서는 무선 센서 노드들의 에너지 소모를 분산시켜 네트워크의 수명은 증가시켰지만 고정적인 경로를 기반으로 하여 이벤트 데이터의 신속한 수집이 불가능하거나 이동성을 갖는 모바일 싱크로의 동적 라우팅 패스의 빈번한 설정으로 인해 최적화된 에너지 효율을 제공하지 못한다. 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 모바일 싱크 기반의 무선 센서 네트워크 환경에서 에너지 효율성을 고려하여 이벤트 데이터를 우선 수집하는 데이터 수집 기법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 특정 이벤트가 발생할 경우, 모바일 싱크의 이동성을 이용하여 특정 이벤트 데이터를 빠르게 수집하며 일반적인 모니터링 데이터의 압축과 전송 주기를 변경함으로써 전반적인 QoS를 향상시킨다. 성능평가 결과, 제안하는 기법은 기존 기법에 비해 이벤트 데이터에 대한 응답시간이 평균 57% 감소하였고, 네트워크의 수명이 평균 19% 증가하였다.

The implement the adaptive partial response maximum likelihood (PRML) detector with tilt analyzer for asymmetric high-density optical storage system. For the estimation of disc tilt, we exploit spc patterns in each data frame. Because of using the ROM table to renew the coefficients of equalizer and reference values of branches, the complexity of the hardware is reduced. The proposed PRML has been designed and verified by VerilogHDL and synthesized by the Synopsys Design Compiler with Hynix $0.35{\mu}m$ STD cell library. In the result, the total gate count is 35K, and the maximum operating frequency is 140MHz.
