Physics-based sound synthesis usually requires high computational costs and this results in a restriction of its use in real-time applications. This motivates us to implement the sound synthesis algorithm of plucked-string instruments using multi-core processor architectures and determine the optimal processing element (PE) configuration for the target instruments. To determine the optimal PE configuration, we evaluate the impacts of a sample-per-processing element (SPE) ratio that is defined as the amount of sample data directly mapped to each PE on system performance and both area and energy efficiencies using architectural and workload simulations. For the acoustic guitar, the highest area and energy efficiencies are achieved at a SPE ratio of 5,513 and 2,756, respectively, for the synthesis of musical sounds sampled at 44.1 kHz. In the case of the classical guitar, the maximum area and energy efficiencies are achieved at a SPE ratio of 22,050 and 5,513, respectively. In addition, the synthetic sounds were very similar to original sounds in their spectra. Furthermore, we conducted MUSHRA subjective listening test with ten subjects including nine graduate students and one professor from the University of Ulsan, and the evaluation of the synthetic sounds was excellent.

Material characteristics and the prediction of life time of polyacrylic rubber (ACM) for automotive engine gasket were studied. Two kinds of ACM rubber compounds, having chlorine cure-site and carboxyl cure-site, were made with optimum formulations and the properties of each materials were examined. As a test results for the thermal properties and compression set, which are very important in the application for the automotive engine gasket, the compound using ACM with carboxyl cure-site was evaluated as having a better characteristics than that of ACM with chlorine cure-site. Arrhenius relationship based on time-temperature superposition principle (TTSP) was obtained through the accelerated heat aging test to predict the useful life-time for the compound using ACM with carboxyl cure-site.

In this paper, we proposed a Proactive Application Service Engine (PASE) supporting tailor-made distributed application services based on the Distributed Object Group Framework (DOGF) efficiently managing distributed objects, in the viewpoint of distributed application, composed application on network. The PASE consists of 3 layers which are the physical layer, the middleware layer, and the application layer. With the supporting services of the PASE, the grouping service manages the data gathered from H/W devices and the object's properties for application by user's request as a group. And the security service manages the access of gathered data and the object according to user's right. The data filtering service executes the filtering function to provide application with gathered data. The statistics service analysis past data. The diagnostic service diagnoses a present condition by using the gathered data. And the prediction service predicts a future's status based on the statistics service and the diagnostic service. For verifying the executability of the PASE's services, we applied to a greenhouse automatic control application in ubiquitous agriculture field.

A steady state performance simulation and diagnostics program for the turboprop engine (PT6A-62), which is the power plant of the first developed military basic trainer KT-1 in Republic of Korea, was developed. The developed steady state performance analysis program was evaluated with the performance data provided by the engine manufacturer and with analysis results of GASTURB program, which is well known for the performance simulation of gas turbines. Performance parameters were discussed to evaluate validity of the developed program at various cases such as altitude, flight velocity and part load variation. GPA(Gas Pass Analysis) allows engine performance deterioration to be identified at the module level in terms of reduction in component efficiencies and changes in mass flow. In order to find optimal instrument set to detect the physical faults such as fouling, erosion and corrosion, a gas path analysis approach is utilized. This study was performed in two cases for selection of optimal measurement parameters. One case was considered with the effect of instrument number by changing independent parameter number. The other case was performed with selection of independent parameter set. According to the analysis results, the optimal measurement parameters selected were eight dependent variables such as shaft horsepower, fuel flow rate, compressor exit pressure and temperature, compressor turbine inlet pressure and temperature and power turbine inlet pressure and temperature.

This article explains the theory of multiple mode/physical coordinate synthesis method in order to analyze the dynamic characteristics for an huge marine engine. The theory leads to make a simulation code. The natural frequencies obtained from the simulation code is compared to those from a commercial analysis software, ANSYS. The simulation code is well reviewed.

인터넷의 활용이 급속하게 증가하여 인터넷에서의 정보보호에 대한 필요성이 대두되면서 표준화된 인터넷 정보보호 프로토콜인 IPsec이 등장하게 되었다. 이러한 IPsec은 현재 여러 가지 플랫폼에서 구현되고 있으며, 이러한 구현은 일반적으로 IP 계층에 통합하는 방법, BITS, BITW 중 하나의 방법론을 선택하고 있다. BITW는 outboard crypto processor를 사용하여 물리적인 인터페이스 카드 내에 IPsec을 구현하는 방법으로 효율성이 문제가 되므로 본 논문에서는 IP 계층에 통합하는 방법과 BITS 방법을 중심으로 장단점을 분석한다. 이에 본 논문은 리눅스 커널 상에서 IPsec을 구현하기 위해 리눅스 커널 모듈을 분석하고 가장 효율적이라 생각되는 IP 계층에 통합된 IPsec을 구현하는 방법을 제안한다.

초임계 유체의 고유한 물리적 특성변화와 난류유동을 결합하여 성능을 높이는 데 활용하고 있는 가장 대표적인 시스템 중의 하나는 연소기이다. 이때 연료와 산화제의 연소반응은 저압조건과 다른 고유한 특성을 가지고 있어 기존의 연소모델에 의해서는 정확한 분석이 어렵게 된다. 따라서 초임계 압력조건에 대한 연소과정을 분석할 수 있는 연소모델이 필요하고 이러한 연소과정이 난류유동조건에서 발생하기 때문에 최근 많은 연구가 초임계 난류연소모델 개발에 집중되어 왔다. 이 글에서는 특히 액체로켓엔진 관련 초임계 연소모델 개발 분야의 연구동향을 살펴보고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 초등학생을 위한 교육용 3D 골드버그 장치 애플리케이션을 개발하였다. 골드버그 장치는 창의력 증진을 위해 많이 제작한다. 하지만 골드버그 장치를 제작하기 위해서는 넓은 장소와 많은 도구가 필요해서 비용이 부담된다. 그래서 애플리케이션으로 개발하여 부담을 줄이고 실제로 골드버그 장치를 제작하는 것처럼 하기 위해 Unity 3D 엔진을 이용하여 3D와 물리법칙을 적용했다. 개발한 애플리케이션은 교육 프로그램에서 활용하여 초등학생의 창의성 증진, 물리법칙 이해, 공학적 설계능력 향상, 수학적 사고력 향상에 도움이 될 수 있다고 생각한다.
