The present study is to analyze an integral test, BETHSY test 6.9c, which represent loss of RURS accident under mid-loop operation. Both the pressurizer manway and the steam generator outlet plenum manway are opened as vent paths in order to prevent the system from pressurization by removing the steam generated in the core. The main purposes are to gain insights into the physical phenomena and identify sensitive parameters. Assessment of capability of CATHARE2 prediction can be established the effective recovery procedures using the code in an actual plant. Most of important physical phenomena in the experiment could be predicted by the CATHARE2 code. The peak pressure in the upper plenum is predicted higher than experimental value by 7 kPa since the differential pressure between the pressurizer and the surge line is overestimated. The timing of core uncovery is delayed by 500 seconds mainly due to discrepancy in the core void distribution. It is demonstrated that openings of the pressurizer manwey and the steam generator manway can prevent the core uncovery using only gravity feed injection. Although some disagreements are found in the detailed phenomena, the code prediction is considered reasonable for the overall system behaviors.

This study has developed a water balance model for the catchment of Byungchun river using a BROOK90 4.4e physical deterministic water balance model with the long-term meterological data and stream run off data obtained from the basin of Byungchun river in Korea. It is intended that the validation model with calibrated model fitting parameter can build a long-term water balance plan for a period when meterological data are available but stream runoff data are not. Results of this study have satisfied the first expectation as an experiment for water balance modeling since measured stream runoff data have turned out to be very similar to simulated stream runoff data. Through the confirmation of model fitting parameters and validated simulation, water balance for the period of 1998 to 2006 has been restored. Unless the conditions of geomophology, vegetation, soil and land use change, meterological data alone can produce various hydrometeorological data related to stream runoff amount, soil water amount, and evapotranspiration. This study opens up a new horizon in restoring water balance in the past as well planning water balance in the present. The obtained results from this study are expected to be used in predicting future water balance in the wake of the changes in climate and vegetation in Korea.

The transmission bandwidth of shorted-monopole antenna in the frequency range of LF and MF was analyzed and the transmission mode considering the permissible data rate dependant on the transmission bandwidth was analyzed in this paper. Based on the required ERP, the output power of transmitter was deduced by considering the antenna efficiency. The analyses are for DGPS and time information transmission system in the frequency range of 283.5kHz and 65kHz respectively. The transmission antenna was modeled as TLM antenna that designed in the limited antenna site. The antenna equivalent circuit and antenna bandwidth were deduced based on the simulation analysis of antenna characteristics. The analyzed antenna bandwidth was compared with the simulated antenna bandwidth. Also the transmission mode for transmitter of LF and MF was proposed by considering the antenna bandwidth.

IDDQ Testing is a very effective testing method to detect many kinds of physical defects occurred in CMOS VLSI circuits. In this paper, we consider the most commonly occurring bridging faults in current CMOS technologies and develop pattern generator for IDDQ testing using efficient IDDQ test algorithms. The complete set of bridging faults between every pair of all nodes(internal and external nodes) within circuit under test is assumed as target fault model. The merit of considering the complete bridging fault set is that layout information is not necessary. Implemented test pattern generator uses a new neighbor searching algorithm and fault collapsing schemes to achieve fast run time, high fault coverage, and compact test sets. Experimental results for ISCAS benchmark circuits demonstrate higher efficiency than those of previous methods.

Crosstalk canceller in stereo channel audio reproduction system has the purpose to deliver desired signals exactly at the listener's ear. Generally. it has a Poor performance in low frequency bands. Frequency-warped Otters are used to provide improved performance in crosstalk canceller for these problems. However. such filters are more complex to implement than conventional filters. This paper presents an efficient method for low-order IIR approximation of frequency warped crosstalk cancellation filters using Pole-zero dewarping. The method preserves the advantages of frequency warping, but has a computational complexity that is similar to the conventional method. This Paper also presents a series of experiments that validate the method of crosstalk canceller.

Physical modeling has been widely used for sound synthesis since it synthesizes high quality sound which is similar to real-sound for musical instruments. However, physical modeling requires a lot of parameters to synthesize a large number of sounds simultaneously for the musical instrument, preventing its real-time processing. To solve this problem, this paper proposes a single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) based multi-core processor that supports real-time processing of sound synthesis of gayageum which is a representative Korean traditional musical instrument. The proposed SIMD-base multi-core processor consists of 12 processing elements (PE) to control 12 strings of gayageum in which each PE supports modeling of the corresponding string. The proposed SIMD-based multi-core processor can generate synthesized sounds of 12 strings simultaneously after receiving excitation signals and parameters of each string as an input. Experimental results using a sampling reate 44.1 kHz and 16 bits quantization show that synthesis sound using the proposed multi-core processor was very similar to the original sound. In addition, the proposed multi-core processor outperforms commercial processors(TI's TMS320C6416, ARM926EJ-S, ARM1020E) in terms of execution time ($5.6{\sim}11.4{\times}$ better) and energy efficiency (about $553{\sim}1,424{\times}$ better).

In this paper, we consider a two-way relay (TWR) system, where two user nodes exchange their information within two transmission phases, by the help of a relay node adopting physical layer network coding. In the system, two users transmit their binary phase shift keying symbols simultaneously in the first phase, and the relay node decodes the XORed version of two user data and broadcasts it back to two users in the second phase. The performance of the system is analyzed in terms of the average end-to-end symbol error probability in Nakagami-m fading channels, for which a tight upper bound is derived in a closed form to provide an accurate and handy estimate on the performance. The results show that our upper bounds are almost indistinguishable from simulation results for various channel and system configurations. In addition, the optimal relay location and power allocation for various conditions can be obtained quickly with our analysis.

Mathematical models have been developed in which storage-relaease processes of pollutants are modeled to explain storage effect of variations of flow and channel geometry on mixing and transport of polluted releases in natural channels including low flow conditions. The models were tested by using the laboratory dispersion data. Comparisons between concentration-time curves predicted by using the proposed model incorporating two different submodels show that Storage-Diffusion Model seems to be superior in explaining physical processes inside the storage zone to the Storage-Exchange Model even though accuracies of simulation results by two models are about the same. The proposed model shows significant improvement over the conventional one-dimensional dispersion model in predicting natural mixing processes in open channels.

This paper researches the estimating location using repeater effect adjustment method in CDMA based system. Repeaters are commonly used by commercial and amateur radio operators to extend signals in the radio frequency range from one receiver to another. The repeater signals are increasing arrival time from base station to mobile station. So if we calculates the mobile station using repeater signals, the estimating position error is increased. However nobody researched about adjusting repeater effects. This paper proposes repeater effect adjustment algorithm. For adjusting repeater effects, we make the triangle using mobile station, reference base station and neighbor base station, and then detect the repeater effects using the triangle characteristic. The proposed method system showed the improved performance in estimating parameters and locating positions by computer simulations.
