This paper reports a methodology and application lot calculating distribution of the director in a liquid crystal cell by a numerical technique. To calculate distribution of the director, we applied a three dimensional finite element method (FEM) and calculated the distributions of electric potential and director in the liquid crystal cell. We have considered the free-energy density in the bulk of liquid crystal cell and calculated the switching property by the Ericksen-Leslie equation and the Laplace equation. We have calculated the optical transmission with distribution of the director by Berreman's method and confirmed the threshold voltage and the response time.

The overall aim of this paper is to determine coupling loss factor of welding point between shell and cylinder using loss factor and structural loss factor. For this purpose, two kinds of loss factor were adopted. One is loss factor of each sub structure, another is structural loss factor based on the complex welded or assembled structure. Using these two parameters, it ispossible to derive the coupling loss factor which represent characteristic condition of SEA theory. Coupling loss factor of conjunction in complex structure was expressed as power balance equation. The derived equation for a coupling loss factor has been simplified on the assumption of one way (uni-directional) power flow between multi-sub structures. Using these conditions, it is possible to find the equation of coupling loss factor expressed as above two loss factors. To check the effectiveness of above equation, this paper used two-stage application. The first approach was application between simple cylinder and shell. The next was adopted rotary compressor. Rotary compressor has three main conjunctions between shell and internal vibration part. This equation was applied to find out the optimum welding point with respect to reduce the noise propagation. It shows the effective tool to evaluate the coupling loss factor in complex structure

The diesel engine exhaust gas is know as one of the causes to produce photochemical smog, which causes damage on environmental. However, due to the high thermal efficiency and low carbon dioxide emission, the usage of a diesel engine is prevailed. In this study, the DC non-thermal plasma technology used to the particulate matter (PM) aftertreatment. The exhaust gas characteristics and energy density were investigated on the dynamometer test bed and chassis dynamometer with CVS-75 mode in a passenger diesel car. It was reported that the smoke removal efficiency has around the 70% in the dynamometer test with 80W energy consumption and the PM removal efficiency has the 68% in the real car test. The NOx also reduced the 20% according to electrode type respectively. Considering these results, plasma technology is one of the ways to simultaneously removing method the particulate matter (PM) and NOx.

Recently, with rapid development of digital media like semiconductor and large flat panel display, the manufacturing equipment is required to have high precision over large travel range. Moreover it should have high product throughput. To achieve high product throughput, a controller should perform fast point-to-point motion and high precision positioning after settling in spite of external disturbances or residual vibrations. We proposed a new mode switching control algorithm with an application to dual stage for long range and high precision positioning. The proposed algorithm uses a proximate time-optimal servomechanism for the fast settling and a time-delay controller for the high precision positioning. Experimental results show that the proposed method enables smooth mode switching and improves the settling time and the precision accuracy after settling by over than 33% and 45%, respectively.

본 논문에서는 새로운 방식의 무손실 스너버를 적용한 역률 개선회로를 제안한다. 기존 역률 개선회로의 경우 구동 주파수에 비례하여 스위칭 손실이 증가하고, 연속전류모드 구동 시 출력 다이오드의 역회복 특성 문제가 존재하였다. 하지만 제안된 방식 경우 소프트 스위칭이 가능하기 때문에 고주파수 구동에 유리하며, 출력 다이오드의 역회복 특성 문제를 해결할 수 있다. 이러한 장점으로 인하여 스위칭 주파수 상향에 유리하며 스위칭 주파수 증가 시 리액티브 소자의 부피를 대폭 저감할 수 있기 때문에 고밀도 전원회로 구현 시 유리한 장점을 갖는다. 본 논문에서 제안한 방식을 250W급 시제품 제작을 통해 실험적 결과를 제시하여 이론적 타당성을 검증한다.

고온초전도 선재 중에서 YBCO 박막을 금속테이프에 증착하여 제조되는 coated conductor는 높은 자기장에서도 임계전류밀도의 감소가 크지 않아 고자장용 초전도 자석을 제조하는데 많이 활용될 것으로 기대되고 있다. coated conductor를 고자장용 초전도 자석제작에 활용하기 위해서는 긴 길이의 도체를 제조하는 것과 함께, 도체의 접합기술이 필요하다. 이는 초전도 자석을 영구전류모드로 운전하기 위해서는 도체의 접촉저항이 충분히 적어야 하기 때문이다. 그러나 박막형 coated conductor는 아직 긴 길이의 선재제조기술이 확립되어 있지 않고, 또 박막형 coated conductor의 형태와 사용되는 제조기술이 본질적으로 초전도 접합을 형성시키기에 매우 어려워서 아직 까지 초전도 접합에 대한 연구결과가 발표되지 않고 있으며, 접합 특성을 측정하는 기술도 개발되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 coated conductor의 접합특성을 측정하기 위한 기본적인 시험방법을 제안하고, 전도성 금속접합재를 이용한 접합시료를 제작하여 그 특성을 평가한 결과를 발표한다.

The static photoelastic experiment was applied to orthotropic materials. And then the specimens used in photoelastic experiment were fractured under static load. The static photoelastic experimental hybrid method for orthotropic material was introduced and its validity had been assured. Crack propagation criterion used the stress components, which are considered the higher order terms, obtained from the static photoelastic experimental hybrid method was introduced and it was applied to the minimum strain energy density criterion, the maximum tangential stress criterion and mode mixity. Comparing the actual initial angle of crack propagation with the theoretical initial angle of crack propagation obtained from the above failure criterions, the validities of the above two criterions are assured and the optimal distance (${\gamma}$) from the crack-tip is 0.01mm in order to get the initial angle of crack propagation of orthotropic material(C.F.E.C.).

The power flow analysis(PFA) can be effectively used to predict structural vibration in medium-to-high frequency ranges. In this paper, vibration experiment has been performed to observe the analytical characteristics of the power flow analysis of the vibration of a plate. In the experiment, the loss factor of the plate and the input mobility at a source point have been measured. The data for the loss factor has been used as the input data to predict the vibration of the plate with PFA. The frequency response functions have been measured over the surface of the plate. The comparison between the experimental results and the predicted results for the frequency response functions showed that PFA can be an effective tool to predict structural vibration in medium-to-high frequency ranges.

Portable fuel cells are commonly operated in the dead-end mode because of such as high fuel utilization. However, the performance of such systems deteriorates continuously with an increase in the amount of by-products such as water vapor and nitrogen. In this study, to verify the effect of water vapor on Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs), constant-load experiments were carried out for a current density of 600 mA/cm2 and a voltage of 0.4 V, respectively. The performance of the cell was more stable under constant voltage conditions than under constant current density conditions. Condensed water accumulated in the anode channel near the cell outlet. The experimental results show how the relative humidity (RH = 0.15, 0.4 and 0.75) of air at the cathode side affect the performance of PEMFCs with dead-end anode. At RH values higher than 0.15, the mean power density increased by up to 51% and the mean purge duration decreased by up to 25% compared to the corresponding initial values.

This paper deals with the high precision of GPS measurement reduction and its implementation on near real-time and kinematic mode for those applications requiring centimeter-level precision of the estimated coordinates, even if target stations are a few hundred kilometers away from their references. We designed the system architecture, data streaming and processing scheme. Intensive investigation was performed to determine the characteristics of the GPS medium-range functional model, IGS infrastructure and some exemplary systems. The designed system consisted of streaming and processing units; the former automatically collects GPS data through Ntrip and IGS ultra-rapid products by FTP connection, whereas the latter handles the reduction of GPS observables on static and kinematic mode to a time series of the target stations' 3D coordinates. The data streaming unit was realized by a DOS batch file, perl script and BKG's BNC program, whereas the processing unit was implemented by definition of a process control file of BPE. To assess the functionality and precision of the positional solutions, an experiment was carried out against a network comprising seven GPS stations with baselines ranging from a few hundred up to a thousand kilometers. The results confirmed that the function of the whole system properly operated as designed, with a precision better than ${\pm}1cm$ in each of the positional component with 95% confidence level.
