This paper present the characteristics of micro- and meso-scale milling processes in which compressed cold air, minimum quantity lubrication (MQL) and $MoS_2$ nanofluid MQL are used. For process characterization, the microand meso-scale milling experiments are conducted using desktop meso-scale machine tool system and the surface roughness is measured. The experimental results show that the use of compressed chilly air and nanofluid MQL in the micro- and meso-scale milling processes is effective in improving the surface finish.

The device performance of nano-scale center-channel (CC) double-gate (DG) MOSFET structure was investigated by numerically solving coupled Schr$\"{o}$dinger-Poisson and current continuity equations in a self-consistent manner. The CC operation and corresponding enhancement of current drive and transconductance of CC-NMOS are confirmed by comparing with the results of DG-NMOS which are performed under the condition of 10-80 nm gate length. Device optimization was theoretically performed in order to minimize the short-channel effects in terms of subthreshold swing, threshold voltage roll-off, and drain-induced barrier lowering. The simulation results indicate that DG-MOSFET structure including CC-NMOS is a promising candidates and quantum-mechanical modeling and simulation calculating the coupled Schr$\"{o}$dinger-Poisson and current continuity equations self-consistently are necessary for the application to sub-40 nm MOSFET technology.

In this paper a watermarking algorithm is proposed to optimize the capacity of the digital watermark insertion in an experimental threshold using the characteristics of human visual system(HVS), adaptive scale factors, and weight functions based on discrete wavelet transform. After the original image is decomposed by a 3-level discrete wavelet transform, the watermarks for capacity optimization are inserted into all subbands except the baseband, by applying the important coefficients from the experimental threshold in the wavelet region. The adaptive scale factors and weight functions based on HVS are considered for the capacity optimization of the digital watermark insertion in order to enhance the robustness and invisibility. The watermarks are consisted of gaussian random sequences and detected by correlation. The experimental results showed that this algorithm can preserve a fine image quality against various attacks such as the JPEG lossy compression, noise addition, cropping, blurring, sharpening, linear and non-linear filtering, etc.

코발트 보호막 코팅이 적용된 페라이트계 스테인리스 스틸인 STS 430과 STS 444 소재에 대해 고체산화물 연료전지용 금속연결재로서의 고온 산화 특성에 대해 살펴보았다. 코발트 코팅층은 $800^{\circ}C$ 고온 산화 후 코발트 산화물 및 $Co_2CrO_4$, $CoCr_2O_4$, $CoCrFeO_4$ 등과 같은 코발트가 함유된 스피넬 상을 형성하였다. 또한 페라이트계 스테인리스 스틸과 코발트 코팅의 계면에서 크롬과 철이 함유된 치밀한 산화층을 형성하여 금속연결재 표면의 스케일 성장속도를 감소시키고 금속연결재 내에 함유된 크롬의 외부 확산을 효과적으로 억제하였다. 한편 STS 430은 고온 산화 후 표면에 형성된 스케일 하부에 $SiO_2$와 같은 내부 산화물이 형성된 반면 STS 444는 표면 스케일 이외에 다른 내부 산화물은 확인되지 않았으며 고온에서의 면저항 측정 결과, 코발트가 코팅된 STS 444의 전기 전도성이 STS 430 보다 우수한 것으로 나타났다.

This study carried out finite element vibration analysis of composite plate structures for construction using multi-scale approaches, which is based on the higher-order theory. The finite element (FE) models for composite structures using multi-scale approaches described in this paper is attractive not only because it shows excellent accuracy in analysis but also it shows the effect of the material combination. The FE model is used for studying free vibrations of laminated composite plates for various fiber-volume fractions. In particular, new results reported in this paper are focused on the significant effects of the fiber-volume fraction for various parameters, such as fiber angles, layup sequences, and length-thickness ratios. It may be concluded from this study that the combination effect of fiber and matrix, largely governing the dynamic characteristics of composite structures, should not be neglected and thus the optimal combination could be used to design such civil structures for better dynamic performance.

본 논문은 웨이블릿 변환 계수의 특성을 이용하여 영상에 워터마킹을 하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법은 영상을 3단계 웨이블릿 변환 후 워터마크의 견고성(robustness)을 고려하여 저주파 영역 계수의 경우 인접계수간의 차이를 기준으로 워터마크를 삽입하고, HVS(Human Visual System)를 고려하여 고주파 영역 계수의 절대치를 기준으로 워터마트를 삽입하였다. 또 대역별로 반감확률을 적용한 스케일 변수를 다르게 부여함으로써 워터마크된 영상의 화질 열화를 줄일 수 있었고, 워터마크의 견고성을 증가시킴으로써 보다 안전한 디지털 컨텐츠 보호에 중점을 두고자 하였다.

본 논문에서는 HVS(human visual system)의 특성을 고려한 새로운 스케일러블 코딩방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 먼저 영상 내에서 관심영역(saliency map)을 찾고 관심영역을 제외한 부분에 에지 보존 필터를 적용한다. 그 영상은 정해진 양자 파라미터 값으로 인코딩 되어 제안된 코딩 시스템의 베이스 층(base layer)이 된다. 기존 스케일러블 코딩 표준에서의 베이스 층과 다르게 본 논문의 베이스 층은 관심 있는 중요영역(foreground)을 보존하고 또한 배경(background)의 에지 성분도 보존한다. 기본 층이 전송되면 개선층(enhancement layer)은 원 영상과 복원된 베이스 층 영상간의 차분 영상에서 관심영역 순으로 보내진다. 실험은 HEVC 를 바탕으로 수행되었고 스케일러블 코딩 표준인 SHVC 와 관심영역에서 비교를 했을 때 제안된 알고리즘이 더 높은 PSNR 을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 전체적으로 지각적인 품질(perceptual quality) 또한 향상되었음을 확인하였다.

To analyze the fluid flow and thermal characteristics in a nanoscale system, the planar Poiseuille flow of a Lennar-Jones liquid through parallel plates formed by fixed atoms is studied using nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. The role of important simulation parameters such as the channel width, the magnitude of external field, the temperatures of the top and bottom plates, and the interaction potential parameter between fluid and wall atoms, which affect flow patterns and heat transfer rate inside the channel, are investigated. Under the various simulation conditions, interesting phenomena deviated from the continuum predictions have found.

In this paper, we propose a new framework for scalable media object to adapt the various QoS requirements in the heterogeneous networking environment. An MPEG-2 video is split into a set of scalable media objects in terms of temporal scaling and fidelity scaling. The portion of the scalable media objects is selectively delivered to adapt the QoS requirement. This framework can satisfy the various QoS requirements on bandwidth, even though the clients share a multipoint channel. By analysis on the rate-distortion characteristics of scalable media object framework, we shows our approach is feasible to support the various QoS requirements.
