As higher quality of image is required for digital image scaling, longer processing time is required. Therefore the technology that can make higher quality image quickly is needed. We propose the double linear-cubic convolution interpolation which creates the high quality image with low complexity and hardware resources. The proposed interpolation methods which are made up of four one-dimensional linear interpolations and one one-dimensional cubic convolution perform linear-cubic convolution interpolation in horizontal and vertical direction. When compared in aspects of peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR), performance time and amount of hardware resources, the proposed interpolation provided better PSNR, low complexity and less hardware resources than bicubic convolution interpolation.

It is possible to study the load characteristics of full-scale hingeless rotor with the changing of physical smallscaled configurations such as rectangular and paddle blades, and metal and composite hubs. In this study, a static test, and a ground and wind-tunnel test were carried out using small-scale rotor models. The static test was carried out to confirm structural stiffness, characteristics of inertia, natural frequency, and damping ratio of rotors, and the ground and wind-tunnel test was carried out to confirm the stability and aerodynamic characteristics under hovering and forward flight conditions. According to the test results, the vertical load in the case of a combination of a small composite hub with paddle blades was higher than that in the case of a metal hub with paddle blades at same condition. Further, it was confirmed that the restraint of the combination of composite hub can be more flexible than the metal hub for the motion of paddle blades.

Two-dimensional binary-phase diffraction gratings which can be employed to fabricate two- and three-dimensional periodic structures are designed and analyzed using rigorous coupled-wave analysis. These gratings serve as phase-masks which generate several diffracted waves from a normally incident beam and thus can produce a periodic interference pattern in space via nearfield holography. The properties of the diffracted beams can be controlled by varying the polarization and wavelength of the incident beam, surface-profile, groove depth and duty cycle of the mask. For the two-dimensional structure, optimum results can be obtained when the diffraction efficiency of the zero-order beam is minimized while that of the first-order maximized. On the other hand, when the diffraction efficiency of the zero-order is appreciable or even greater than other orders, we can obtain a variety of three-dimensional interference patterns which may be used to fabricate photonic crystals of tetragonal-body-centered and hexagonal structures in a submicron scale. scale.

A sandwich element is a special Hybrid structural form of the composite construction, which is consisted of three main parts : thin, stiff and relatively high density faces separated by a thick, light, and weaker core material. In a sandwich construction, the shear deformation of the faces. Therefore, in the calculation of the bending stiffness, the shear effect should be included. In this paper, the minimum weight is selected as an object function, as the weight critical structures are usually composed of these kind of construction. To obtain the minimum weight of sandwich panel, the principle of minimum potential energy is used and as for the design constraints, the allowable bending stress of face material, the allowable shear stress of core material, the allowable value of panel deflection and the wrinkling stress of faces are adopted, as well as the different boundary conditions. For the engineering purpose of sandwich panel design, the results are tabulated, which are calculated by using the nonlinear optimization technique SUMT.

In Korea, one of the most used structural systems for residential apartment buildings is the combination of the reinforced concrete (RC) wall and rahmen structures in the upper and lower floors, respectively. To alleviate the significant difference between the stiffnesses of these two structural systems, large transfer girders are generally required in the transition zone of the structure, which then results in the use of large amounts of construction materials and low economic feasibility. This paper proposes a new RC boundary-beam-wall system that can minimize the disadvantages of the RC transfer girder system. The structural performance of the proposed system subjected to axial loading was evaluated via rigorous three-dimensional nonlinear finite element analysis. Four parameters, namely the ratio of lower wall to upper wall lengths, distance between stirrups, main bar slope ratio, and slab length, were considered in the finite element analysis, and their effects on the maximum axial load were analyzed and discussed.

Suction buckets are feasible options for offshore foundations to support subsea structures in deep water, enabling suction-induced installation by pumps. Recently, hybrid suction bucket foundations that combine single or multiple suction buckets with a mat foundation have been considered. The foundations effectively increase the load capacity while reducing construction costs. However, there is still insufficient experimental validation of hybrid suction bucket foundations regarding their bearing capacity. Furthermore, research on the horizontal load capacity under low vertical and moment loads is inadequate. In this study, we investigate the feasibility of using a hybrid suction bucket foundation for subsea installations in clay. We considered two types of hybrid suction bucket foundations: a circular mat with a single suction bucket and a square mat with multiple buckets. Centrifuge tests were performed to understand the hybrid suction bucket foundation characteristics under horizontal loads and their corresponding bearing capacity. Particularly, we verified the effect of the mat foundation and bucket embedment depth on the horizontal bearing mechanism and capacities. Results confirmed that the hybrid suction bucket foundation outperforms the single suction bucket.

플라즈마 공정은 DRAM, 이종접합 양극성 트랜지스터(HBTs), 레이저, 평면도파로(planar lightwave circuit)와 같은 전자소자 및 광조자 제작에 있어서 핵심 공정중의 하나이다. 최근 미세 구조의 크기가 극도로 감소하게 됨에 따라 실제 소작 제작에 있어서 미세한 모양을 식각하는 공정이 매우 중요하게 되었다. 그 중에서 고밀도 유도결합 플라즈마(high density inductively coupled plasma)를 이용한 기술은 빠르고 정확한 식각률, 우수한 식각 균일도와 높은 재현성 때문에 습식식각 기술보다 선호되고 있다. 본 연구는 평판형(planar) 고밀도 유도결합 플라즈마 식각장치를 이용하여 BCl$_3$와 BCl$_3$/Ar 플라즈마에 따른 AlGaAs/GaAs의 식각결과를 비교 분석하였다. 공정 변수는 ICP 소스(source power)파워, RIE 척(chuck) 파워, 공정 압력, 그리고 Ar 조성비(0-100%)이었다. BCl$_3$에 Ar을 첨가하게 되면 순수한 BCl$_3$ 플라즈마에서의 AlGaAs/GaAs 식각률(> 3000 $\AA$/min) 보다 분당 약 1000$\AA$ 이상 높은 식각률(>4000 $\AA$/min)을 나타내었다. 이 결과는 Ar 플라즈마의 이온보조(ion-assisted)가 식각률 증가에 기인한다고 예측된다. 그리고 전자주사 현미경(SEM)과 원자력간 현미경(AFM)을 사용하여 식각 후 표면 거칠기 및 수직 측벽도 둥을 분석하였다. 마지막으로 XPS를 이용하여 식각된 후에 표면에 남아 있는 잔류 성분 분석을 연구하였다. 본 결과를 종합하면 BCl$_3$에 기초한 평판형 유도결합 플라즈마는 AlGaAs/GaAs 구조의 식각시 많은 우수한 특성을 보여주었다.79$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.016$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 2는 0.045$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.014$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 3은 0.123$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.017$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 4는 0.055$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.016$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 5는 0.031$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.015$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 혼합재료 6은 0.111$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$, 0.020$\ell/\textrm{cm}^3$로 나타났다. 3. 단일재료의 악취흡착성능 실험결과 암모니아는 코코넛, 소나무수피, 왕겨에서 흡착능력이 우수하게 나타났으며, 황화수소는 펄라이트, 왕겨, 소나무수피에서 다른 재료에 비하여 상대적으로 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 혼합충진재는 암모니아의 경우 코코넛과 펄라이트의 비율이 70%:30%인 혼합재료 3번과 소나무수피와 펄라이트의 비율이 70%:30%인 혼합재료 6번에서 다른 혼합재료에 비하여 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 황화수소의 경우 혼합재료에 따라 약간의 차이를 보였다. 4. 코코넛과 소나무수피의 경우 암모니아가스에 대한 흡착성능은 거의 비슷한 것으로 사료되며, 코코넛의 경우 전량을 수입에 의존하고 있다는 점에서 국내 조달이 용이하며, 구입 비용도 적게 소요되는 소나무수피를 사용하는 것이 경제적이라고 사료된다. 5. 마지막으로 악취제거 미생물균주를 접종한 소나무수피 70%와 펄라이트 30%의 혼합재료를 24시간동안 장기간 운전

We have fabricated and analyzed the lasing characteristics of 1.3$\mu\textrm{m}$ Spot-Size-Converter (SSC) integrated Fabry-Perot (FP) laser diodes, which are very promising light sources for optical subscriber networks. SSC-LDs has been developed by BIB (buttjoint-built-in) coupling and selective MOVPE growth. High-performances were achieved such as the slope efficiency from the SSC facet of 0.23-0.32 mW/mA, the full-width at the half maximum of the far-field pattern (FFP) of 9.5$^{\circ}$~12.3$^{\circ}$, the alignment tolerances of $\pm$2.3$\mu\textrm{m}$ and $\pm$2.5$\mu\textrm{m}$ within the extra-coupling loss of 1 dB for the vertical and parallel directions, respectively. These experimental results were compared to theoretical ones in order to clarify the operational problems and give a good design direction of the fabricated SSC-LDs. It was revealed that an asymmetric output power from the facets, an irrelevancy of FFP and the waveguide structure around SSC facet region, and a poor temperature characteristics were originated from the scattering in the BIB and SSC sections and SHB effect in the active section for the first time.t time.

In this paper, X/Ku band waveguide diplexers with H-plane T-junction for satellite communication systems is proposed and its characteristics is cinfirmed. Two frequency bands such as X(7.25 ~ 8.4 GHz) and Ku(12.25 ~ 14.5 GHz) can be separated by the proposed waveguide diplexers. A diplexers is normally including low pass filter, high pass filter and junction waveguide. To simplify the structure of the proposed diplexers, the proposed waveguide diplexers is using impedance matching technique on H-plane of the high pass filter without low pass filter. To use vertical and horizontal polarization, the proposed diplexers with orthomode transducer(OMT) characteristics is also designed. Therefore, it is confirmed that the proposed waveguide diplexers can be used as dual-band and dual-polarization diplexers for satellite communication feed systems.

In this paper, TX/RX dual operation microstrip single antenna for satellite communication is designed, analyzed, fabricated and measured. TX/RX frequency ranges are 14.0∼l4.5 GHz, 11.7∼12.75 GHz in respectively and vertical and horizontal polarizations are used for TX and RX. This antenna uses microstrip direct feeding for RX and aperture coupled strip-line feeding for TX and accommodates stacked elements for a high directivity and wide impedance bandwidth. In an analysis of single element, FDTD and MOM was compared and FDTD analysis was more accurate because of the consideration of finite structure and imperfect two ground planes. The proposed structure facilitates generally to an extension of two dimensional array and lower an unwanted radiation by strip-line feed in TX. TX/RX 8${\times}$4 array has a return loss below -10 dB, -14 dB in TX, RX respectively and a gain ranging from 19.1∼20.7 dB in TX, 21.2∼21.8 dB in RX which has a radiation efficiency of 43∼5l %, 52∼57 %.
