A refrigerator has many components which are made from diverse materials such as metal, polymer, plastic, and rubber. So, it generally requires much time and efforts to build up an analysis model in finite element analysis. In this work, to reduce the computational time and efforts a simplified modeling method was proposed for the analysis of a refrigerator. Occasionally, a stick-slip noise occurs in a refrigerator due to relative slip between shelf and inner-case. When we solve the problem by a FE analysis, we should model the structures with detail for considering the contact conditions; by this reason, too many efforts are consumed in the conventional analysis method. Through this work, we shows the concept of simplifying approach and a good agreement with the results of a real model analysis. And also, the evaluation of the proposed method and the application of contact analysis using the simplified model are discussed.

Six types of planar thermal converters from TC 1 to TC 6 were designed and fabricated for the purpose of being used as practical standards to alternating current. The respective voltage responses in air and in a vacuum of TC 6, which has the smallest thermal loss, were about 4.03mV/mW and about 6.38 mV/mW. Thermal time constant of TC 6, which has also the smallest heater thermal inertia, was about 8 ms. The respective variations of AC-DC voltage and current transfer errors from sample to sample, which were measured by FRDC(fast reversed DC) method, were about $\pm$0.41 ~$\pm$0.85 ppm and about $\pm$0.15~$\pm$1.16 ppm in the frequent range of 40 Hz~10 KHz with appling 1 V and 5 mA rms sine waves to the converters. All converters investigated exhibited sufficiently low AC-DC transfer errors to be used as practical standards.

III-V반도체 태양전지는 다양한 에너지 밴드갭을 만들 수 있으며 다중접합 태양전지의 경우 흡수 전류가 커져 효율이 증가한다. 태양전지의 효율의 증가는 태양광 발전시스템의 발전 단가를 낮추는 중요한 요인이다. 우리는 효율이 높은 III-V 태양전지를 제작하기 위해 일차적으로 Ge기판 위에 GaAs를 성장하고자 한다. Ge기판과 GaAs의 격자상수는 0.07%차이로 거의 일치하나 물질의 열팽창계수가 다르고 비극성인 Ge기판 위에 극성인 GaAs를 성장 시 위상불일치(Anti Phase Domain) 나타난다. 위상불일치 현상을 줄이기 위해 성장 시 온도와 V/III비율, 성장두께 등을 달리하여 성장한다. 표면의 상태가 좋아질수록 위상불일치 현상이 작으며 단일성장 보다 두 단계 과정으로 성장 했을 때 표면의 상태가 더 좋은 결과를 바탕으로[1], 20nm 이하로 얇게 seed층을 성장하고 그 위에 두꺼운 버퍼층을 성장하는 두 단계로 진행하였다. seed층의 성장온도는 $400{\sim}550^{\circ}C$, V/III 비율을 3.5~30으로 다양하게 바꿔가면서 표면의 상태를 비교하였다. 이때 버퍼층의 성장 온도와 V/III 비율은 $680^{\circ}C$, 192으로 일정하게 유지하였다. 표면은 SEM과 AFM을 통해 분석하였으며 결정질의 상태는 XRD 장비(Panalytical사)로 분석하고 광학적 특성은 LTPL(Accent Optical Technologies사)로 측정하였다. 실험의 결과는 seed층의 온도가 낮고 V/III 비율이 낮으며 성장률이 높았을 때 표면상태가 좋은 반면 버퍼층은 온도가 높고 V/III 비율이 높으며 성장률이 낮을 때 표면상태가 좋았다. seed층을 $450^{\circ}C$온도에서 V/III 비율이 3.5이고 성장률이 버퍼층에 비교하여 크게 하여 성장 했을 때 표면 거칠기가 3.75nm로 작아 표면의 상태가 좋음을 확인할 수 있었다. 두 단계 성장 시 표면의 상태는 seed층의 조건에 따라 결정됨을 알 수 있었다. 표면상태가 좋았을 때 결정상태 역시 좋았으며 성장률이 바뀜에 따라 반치폭이 42~45 arcsec의 값을 나타내었다. 광학적 특성은 10K에서 1.1512eV 밴드갭 에너지를 가지고 있어 양질의 GaAs가 성장됨을 알 수 있다.

Single mode fiber optic interferometers using the Fabry-Perot configuration were embedded in a reinforced concrete structure. These interferometers investigated the character of phase shift and strain for internal loads. The 10 mm length of FFPI in the continuous length of single mode fiber (SMF) were produced with two pieces of SMF coated were $TiO_2$ dielectric film utilizing the fusion splicing technique. The fabricated fiber optic Fabry-Perot interferometer(FFPI) and the 6 mm length of steel bar were buried with specimen ($100{\times}100{\times}50\;mm^3$) which was made of concrete structure. The resin protects FFPI and fiber leads from squeezed concrete. Sensors at different point in the structure were multiplexed by TDM (Time Division Multiplexing) method and the deformation to the external loads at each point could be monitored simultaneously. The output signals were proportional to the external loads applied to the structure and the sensitivity of the sensors were $1.03^{\circ}/kg$ and $0.76^{\circ}/kg$ respectively.

Multilayered structures include lamination by relatively thick plies and thin interlayers. For efficient peridynamic analysis of dynamic fracturing multilayered structures, the interlayer is modeled using ghost peridynamic particles while the ply is formulated via real peridynamics. With the nonlocal ghost interlayer, one may keep the discretization resolution low for the ply. In this study, the characteristics of dynamic wave propagation through the nonlocal ghost interlayer in peridynamic analysis are investigated. It is observed that the interlayer not only binds adjacent plies, but also significantly influences energy transfer between plies, and thereby their deformation and motion. In addition, near a surface or boundary, peridynamic particles do not have a full nonlocal neighborhoods. This causes the effective material properties near the surface to be different from those in the bulk. Surface correction based on neighborhood volumes is employed. The impact of surface correction on wave propagation in multilayered structures is investigated.

Cu(In,Ga)Se₂(CIGS) 태양전지 연구개발은 1970년대부터 지속적으로 발전하여 유리 및 플렉서블 기판에서 모두 20% 이상의 고효율을 달성하였으며, 상용화도 성공적으로 이루었다. 최근 태양전지의 초고효율화를 위한 방안으로 태양전지를 적층하는 다중접합 태양전지 특히 제조원가를 고려한 탠덤 구조에 대한 연구가 상당히 주목을 받고 있다. 이는 페로브스카이트 태양전지를 상부셀로 적용하였을 때, 29.5%의 초고효율이 보고되었기 때문이다. 이런 추세로 보면 태양전지의 탠덤 구조는 초고효율화 달성에 필연적으로 사용될 것으로 생각된다. 하지만 초고효율화와 더불어 BIPV, VIPV, 모바일소자 등 심미성, 경량성, 유연성을 갖춘 다기능성 태양전지에 대한 요구까지 충족시키기 위해서는 궁극적으로 유연한 하부셀이 사용되어야 한다. 이런 점들을 고려하였을 때, 초고효율 유연 탠덤 태양전지의 하부셀로 유연 CIGS 박막 태양전지가 적합한 선택이 될 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 본 글에서는 CIGS 박막 태양전지를 기반으로 하는 탠덤 태양전지의 연구개발 현황에 대해서 살펴보고 향후 유연 탠덤 태양전지의 전망에 대해서도 기술하고자 한다.

Recently, the interests in structural monitoring of civil infrastructures are increased. Especially, as the civil infrastructures such as bridges, tunnels and buildings become large-scale, it is necessary to monitor and maintain the safety state of the structures, which requires smart systems that can supply long-term monitoring during the service time of the structures. In this paper, we investigated the possibilities of fiber optic sensor application to the various structures. We investigate the possibility of using fiber optic Bragg grating sensors to joint structure. The sensors show good response to the structural behavior of the joint while electric gauges lack of sensitivity, durability and long term stability for continuous monitoring. We also apply fiber optic structural monitoring to the composite repaired concrete beam structure. Peel-out effects is detected with optical fiber Bragg grating sensors and the strain difference between main structure and repaired carbon sheets is observed when they separate each other. The real field test was performed to verify the behaviors of fiber Bragg grating sensors attached to the containment structure in Uljin nuclear power plant in Korea as a part of structural integrity test which demonstrates that the structural response of the non-prototype primary containment structures. The optical fiber Bragg grating sensor smart system which is the probable means for long term assessments can be applicable to monitoring of structural members in various civil infrastructures.

Pipe welding is used in various ranges such as civil engineering and ship building engineering. Until now, many technicians work for pipe welding manually under harmful, dangerous and difficult conditions. So it is necessary to install automation process. For automation pipe welding, relation between welding parameters & bead shape should be considered. Using this relation, bead shape could be expected from welding parameters. FCAW was used in this study. Instead of pipe workpiece, fillet joint plate is used, which were inclined 0,45,90,135,180 degree. By analyzing between welding parameters (current, welding speed, voltage) and bead shape parameters with non-linear multiple regression, bead shape parameters could be expected. Piecewise Cubic Hermite Interpolation was used to expect smooth curved bead shape with bead shape parameters. From these processes, bead shape could be expected from welding parameters.

Although many different methods have been used to solve stereo correspondent problems, the deviation of accuracy is too big. Among those many methods, the one that uses segmentation information of input image has received high attention in academic field since it is very close to vision recognition. In this thesis, the existing method of acquiring a single value by using the segment information and initial disparity value was viewed in NP-hard problem to propose a new method. In order to verify the validity of the proposed method, well-known data were used for experiment and the resulted data was analyzed. Although there were some disadvantages in the time aspect, it showed somewhat useful results in the accuracy aspect.

This paper proposes a hybrid machine translation system which integrates SMT, RBMT, and PBMT in serial manner. SMT in our project has been implemented as a Quasi-syntax-based system where monotone search is done, given a preprocessed string of foreign language. Preprocessing includes rule-based reordering, NE recognition, clausal splitting, and attaching pattern translation information at the end of the input text. For lengthy & complex sentences, clausal splitting turned out to generate better translation than normal input.
