This paper proposes an asymmetric split-loop resonator with an outer square loop (ASLR-OSL), which can actively control terahertz wave transmission properties while maintaining a high-Q-factor of the asymmetric split-loop resonator (ASLR). An added outer square loop is designed to play the roles of both a metamaterial and a micro-heater, which can control the temperature through a directly applied bias voltage. A vanadium dioxide ($VO_2$) thin film, which exhibits an insulator-metal phase transition with temperature change, is used to control the transmission properties. The proposed ASLR-OSL shows transmission properties similar to those of the ASLR, and they can be successfully controlled by directly applying bias voltage to the outer square loop. Based on these results, an electrically controllable terahertz high-Q metamaterial could be achieved simply by adding a square loop to the outside of a well-known high-Q metamaterial.

This paper presents the control algorithm of active walking aids estimating external torque of the wheels from user's will. Nowadays, interest of the walking aids is increased according to the increase in population of elder and handicapped person. Although many walking aids are developed, most of walking aids don't have any actuators for its movement. However, general walking aids have weakness for its movement to upward/download direction of slope. To overcome the weakness of the general walking aids, many researches for active type walking aids are being progressed. Unfortunately it is difficult to precision control of walking will during its movement, because it is not easy to recognize user's walking will. Many kinds of methods are proposed to recognize of user's walking will. In this paper, we propose control algorithm of walking aids by using torque estimation from wheels. First, we measure wheel velocity and voltage at the walking aids. From these data, external forces are extracted. And then walking will that is included by walking velocity and direction is estimated. Finally, walking aids are controlled by these data. Here, all the processes are verified by simulation.

The paper deals with comparative study for characteristics of approximation of design space according to various approximate models and sensitivity analysis using orthogonal array experiments in structure design of active type DSF which was developed for float-over installation of offshore plant. This study aims to propose the orthogonal array experiments based design methodology which is able to efficiently explore an optimum design case and to generate the accurate approximate model. Thickness sizes of main structure member were applied to the design factors, and output responses were considered structure weight and strength performances. Quantitative effects on the output responses for each design factor were evaluated using the orthogonal array experiment. Best design case was also identified to improve the structure design with weight minimization. From the orthogonal array experiment results, various approximate models such as response surface model, Kriging model, Chebyshev orthogonal polynomial model, and radial basis function based neural network model were generated. The experiment results from orthogonal array method were validated by the approximate modeling results. It was found that the radial basis function based neural network model among the approximate models was able to approximate the design space of the active type DSF with the highest accuracy.

There are several improved designs of passive radar reflector available, but their performance is ultimately limited by the cross-section area and this is governed by the size of the buoy and the acceptable windage. Therefore it is needed to investigate the low-cost, low power, a active device that can be improve the reliability of response. Active Radar Reflector(AAR) consists of a microwave amplifier with separate receive and transmit antennas. It is a device which automatically transmits a signal in response to an interrogating signal received. It was intended to improve the consistency of the radar return from the buoy and the small craft, particularly in poor sea conditions. And it directly improves safety of navigation at sea.

Bovine incisor was investigated using active infrared thermography(IRT) to visualize crack on bovine teeth. An artificial crack was carefully created in bovine incisor sample by compression load of universal tensile machine. While applying a sinusoidal heat wave to the cracked bovine incisor through halogen lamp, consecutive digital infrared images was captured from the sample surface at a frequency synchronized with heat excitation. Phase information of thermal image was calculated by four-point correlation method and processed to produce the phase image of bovine incisor. This phase image showed clearly the crack on the incisor, which was hardly detected in traditional passive thermography.

A circuit model for active-controlled field emitter array(ACFEA) as an electron source of active-controlled field emission display(ACFED) has been proposed. The ACFEA with hydrogenated amorphous silicon thin-film transistor(a-Si:H TFT) and Spindt-type molibdenum tips (Spindt-Mo FEA) has been fabricated monolithically on the same glass. A-Si:H TFT is used as a control device of field emitters, resulting in stabilizing emission current and lowering driving voltage. The basic model parameters extracted from the electrical characteristics of the fabricated a-Si:H TFT and Spindt-Mo FEA were implemented into the ACFEA model with a circuit simulator SPICE. The accuracy of the equivalent circuit model was verified by comparing the simulated results with the measured one through DC analysis of the ACFEA. The transient analysis of the ACFEA showed that the gate capacitance of FEA along with the drivability of TFT strongly affected the response time. With the fabricated ACFEA, we obtained a response time of 15$mutextrm{s}$, which was enough to make 4bit/color gray scale with the pulse width modulation (PWM).

역위상의 소음, 진동을 이용하여 원래의 소음, 진동을 제어하려는 능동제어 기법의 물리학적 기본원리는 매우 오래전부터 알려져 있었으며 특허의 형태 로 본 기술이 구체화된 것은 1934년 독일의 Lueg에 의해서였다. Lueg의 능 동제어 개념 중 단일주파수음의 제거, 자유공간에 놓여진 음원 및 복잡한 파 형에 대한 개념은 능동제어 분야에서 많은 연구의 기초가 되고 있다. 1980년 대에 들어서는 디지탈 신호처리기술의 놀라운 발전에 힘입어 계산속도의 장 벽이 제거되고 능동제어에 대한 보다 나은 모델과 방법수립이 가능해짐에 따라 소음진동제어 방법으로서 능동제어기술이 더욱 실용화되기에 이르렀으 며 최근에 들어서는 실험실에서의 연구개발 단계를 벗어나 국내외적으로 본 기술을 실제 현장에 적용하려는 실용화 노력이 여러 분양에서 진행되고 있 다. 본 고에서는 최근의 국내외 능동소음진동제어 기술 연구 개발 동향을 살 펴보고 현장적용의 문제점등을 검토함으로써 보다 효율적이고 현실적인 본 기술의 실용화 연구에 도움이 되었으면 한다.
