The ceria powder is excellent in oxygen storage capacity (OSC) through the oxidation and reduction reaction of Ce ions and is used as a typical material for a three-way catalyst of an automobile which purifies the exhaust gas. However, since ceria generally has poor thermal stability at high temperatures, it is doped with metal ions to improve thermal stability. Therefore, in this study, Zr ions were doped into ceria powder, and their characteristics were further improved due to the increase of specific surface area with decreasing particle size due to doping. In this study, the synthesis of zirconium doped ceria nanopowder was synthesized by hydrothermal process. In order to synthesis Zr ion doped ceria nanopowder, the precursor reaction at was $200^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours. The average particle size of synthesized Zr doped $CeO_2$ nanopowder was below 20 nm. The specific surface area of synthesized Zr ion doped ceria nanopowder increased from $52.03m^2/g$ to $132.27m^2/g$ with Zr increased 30 %.

In this paper, it is tested that an individual is able to be identified with finger face images and the results are presented. Special operators, FFG(Facet Function Gradient) masks by which the gradient of a facet function fit on a gray levels of image patches can be computed are used and a new procedure named F-algorithm is introduced to match the finger face images. The finger face image is divided into the equal subregions and each subregions are divided into equal patches with this algorithm. The FFG masks are used for convolution operation over each patch to produce scalar values. These values from a feature matrix, and the identity of fingers is determined by a norm of the elements of the feature matrices. The distribution of the norms shows conspicuous differences between the pairs of hand images of the same persons and the pairs of the different persons. This is a result to prove the ability of discrimination with the finger face image. An identification rate of 95.0% is obtained as a result of the test in which 500 hand images taken from 100 persons are processed through F-algorithm. It is affirmed that the finger face reveals to be such a good biometrics as other hand parts owing to the ability of discrimination and the identification rate.

새로운 급속소결방법인 고주파유도가열 소결법과 펄스전류활성 소결법을 이용하여 습식 볼밀링으로 혼합한 WC-8wt.%Co분말에 60MPa의 압력과 90%의 고주파출력 또는 2800A의 필스전류를 가하여 상대밀도가 98.6% 이상인 초경재료를 2분이내의 짧은 시간에 제조하였다. 초기의 WC분말의 입도가 미세해짐에 따라 고주파유도가열 소결법과 펄스전류활성 소결법 모두 소결시간이 단축되는 경향을 보였으며 그 소결체의 결정립 크기도 감소하였다. 고주파유도가열 소결법으로 제조된 초경합금의 WC 결정립 크기는 초기입도가 증가함에 따라 가각 410, 540, 600, 700 및 850nm으로 측정되었으며. 그 결과를 Fig. 1.에 나타내었다. WC의 초기입도가 $0.5{\mu}m$일 경우 고주파유도가열 소결법과 펄스전류활성 소결법으로 제조된 WC-8wt.%Co 소결체의 경도와 파괴인성은 각각 $1923kg/mm^2$과 $10.5MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$ 및 $1947kg/mm^2$과 $10.8MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$ 이었다.

Using micro-Raman spectrometer, we investigated the evaluation of microstress on silicon surface after the local thermal oxidation. The induced stress of silicon surface after local thermal oxidation shows maximum value at the interface of silicon oxide and active area. The smaller the size of active area, the larger stress. From the evaluation of three other device isolation processes, A, B and moB, whose active size has $0.45{\mu}m$ in length, moB process is turned out to have the lowest stress value and the smallest bird's beak effect.

Attritor mill로 분쇄처리된 $UO_2$-30mo1%CeO2$_2$(masterblend) 분말을 turbular mixer와 attritor mill 에서 $UO_2$와 혼합, $UO_2$-5mol%CeO$_2$ 분말을 만들고, 이를 통해 분말처리 및 소결분위기가 각 성형체의 소결거동에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. $UO_2$-30mo1%CeO$_2$ 분말을 attritor mill로 1 시간동안 분쇄하면 평균 분말크기는 3.7 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 이었다. Turbular mixer에서 만들어진 $UO_2$-5mol%CeO$_2$ 분말이 H$_2$ 및 Ar-4%H$_2$ 분위기에서 소결되면, 분말처리 방법에 따라서 소결밀도는 각각 10.07-10.11, 9.81-9.85 g/㎤이었다. 이러한 방법으로는 masterblend 분쇄처리 과정에 만들어진 agglomerate 는 소결이 거의 이루어지지 않아서 소결체내에 그대로 잔존되었다. Agglomerate는 그 내부에 균열이 생성되어 있었고, 또한 $UO_2$ 지지내의 확산도 방해하여 기지내부에도 큰 기공들이 많이 분포하였다. 희석혼합을 turbular mixer 대신 attritor mill에서 하게되면, 밀도는 H$_2$ 및 Ar-4%H$_2$ 분위기에서 각각 10.54, 10.39 g/㎤ 이었으며, 결정립크기는 5, 9.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 이었다. 이 경우에는 소결체내에 agglomerate가 거의 잔존하지 않았다.

The spray characteristics and drop size measurements have been experimentally studied in liquid jets injected into subsonic crossflow. With water as fuel injection velocity, injection angle and atomize. internal flows were varied to provide of jet operation conditions. The injector internal flow was classified as three modes such as a non-cavitation flow, cavitation, and hydraulic flip flows. Pulsed Shadowgraph Photography measurement was used to determine the spatial distribution of the spray droplet diameter in a subsonic crossflow of air. And this study also obtains the SMD (Sauter Mean Diameters) distribution by using Planar Liquid Laser Induced Fluorescence technique. The objectives of this research are get a droplet distributions and drop size measurements of each condition and compare with the other flow effects. As the result, This research has been showned that droplet size were spatially dependent on air-stream velocity, fuel injection velocity, injection angle effects, and normalized distance from the injector exit length(x/d, y/d). There are also different droplet size characteristics between cavitation, hydraulic flip and the non-cavitation flows.

Radicals of Korean characters consist of some strokes, and complete letters are comprised of a combination of radicals. During the process of combining strokes and radicals, it requires a lot of effort as the size and the position of the components can be changed. Unlike this, METAFONT can improve the efficiency in the production process of fonts by changing its parameters. It also provides a system which can easily transform size and position of the strokes and radicals. We propose a structural Korean font generator which allows users to modify parameters of letters through METAFONT and generates a variety of fonts automatically. The suggested Korean font generator can be applied to font embedding and font editor.

For the treatment of regulatory clearance of the soils, a procedure for the radionuclides and radioactivity concentration analysis is under development. A strategy for soil sampling including random sampling after homogenization and standardization was set up. Statistical representativeness is considered for not only sampling strategy but also sample size. In this study, designed sample size was designed with confidence interval and error bound of soil using the pilot samples which were taken following the sampling strategy.

This paper aims to provide information to generate a statistical load model of an educational server by analyzing workload of an e-Learning sewer at Dankook University. The result of the analysis shows file size distribution, access frequency and transmission volume for each file type, access interval, changes in preference and clients access rate by networks. In particular, it had different results from previous studies about video file's size distribution and file distribution based on access frequency. This is because the characteristics of e-learning are influenced by using authoring tools for making into video file and by freeing the number of students who register for a course. The result in this paper can be used as a basic data for studies designed to improve e-learning system architecture and server performance.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine a suitable type and size of Hangul fonts for printed materials in the presbyopic age. Methods: Based on the most common Hangul fonts used today, three types of fonts were used Hamchrombatang, Sinmoonmyungjo and Sinmyungjo at small font sizes in the range 9-11 point (pt). Subjects were 101 volunteers aged 41 through 85 years. Near visual acuity (VA) was corrected to read VA 0.5 at 40 cm after distance correction. The subjects were asked to read words containing 88 characters in 10 pt after a question about preference. Readability was assessed by reading rate that was calculated as the number of words read correctly in one minute (words per minute, wpm). Results: The most preferred font type was Simmyungjo at small font sizes. Although preferred font sizes were different in each font type, Sinmyungjo was generally preferred at 10 pt more than other fonts. Hamchrombatang and Sinmyungjo were read significantly faster than Sinmoonmyungjo. There was a weak negative relationship between readability and age in Sinmyungjo. In comparing between the top 10% and the bottom 10% group sorted by reading rate, the top group showed lower average age and addition than the bottom group, however there were no significant differences in reading rate among the fonts. Conclusions: Although increasing age tends to be low in readability for Sinmyungjo, in the light of preferred font and readability, it is recommended to use a 10 pt Sinmyungjo font in printed materials for the presbyopic age.
