발전소 등의 대규모 공정 플랜트에서 사용하고 있는 대부분의 상용 제어기는 PID 제어기이며, 온도 루프를 제외한 대부분의 제어루프가 PI 제어기를 채용하고 있다. 제어 시스템의 성능이 제어기 파라미터의 값에 의해 결정되므로, PI 제어기의 튜닝이 중요하다. 한편, 실제 현장에서의 PI 제어기의 튜닝은 많은 시간과 노력을 필요로 하는 시행착오에 의해서 이루어지고 있으며, 각 제어 루프 제어기 파라미터의 초기값 설정에 어려움을 갖고 있는 실정이다. PI 튜닝 기법이 많이 나와 있지만 시험 신호의 인가 문제로 인해 현장 활용에는 많은 어려움을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 단순한 시험 신호로부터 PI 초기 설정값을 산출할 수 있는 방법에 대해서 알아본다. 또한 발전소에 적용된 국산 분산 제어 시스템을 보면, 대부분 데이터 로깅 시스템으로서만 활용되고 있고, 제어 시스템으로의 활용은 거의 이루어지지 않고 있으며, PID제어기에 대한 구현도 완벽하지 못하여 디지털 PI 제어기의구현 방법에 대한 고찰도 요구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 디지탈 PI 제어기를 구현하는데 있어서 필요한 사항들, 즉 아날로그 제어기의 디지털 등가 제어기로의 변환 기법, 샘플링 주기의 결정 방법, 그리고 그 외에 공정 제어기가 가져야할 기능들에 대해서 언급한다. 그리고나서 PI 튜닝 기법과 아날로그 제어기의 디지털 등가 제어기로의 변환기법, 샘플링 주기 결정 방법 등에 대해 플랜트 모델을 선정하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 효용성을 보인다.

지금까지 감성측정은 심박 변화율, 피부저항, 피부온도 등의 생리 신호를 측정하고 그 신호를 이용하여 비교, 분석하여 왔다. 심박 변화율, 피부저항, 피부온도와 마찬가지로 자율신경계 반응의 하나로써 맥파 또한 인간의 감성을 평가하는 한 파라미터가 될 수 있음을 예상하고 본 연구를 수행하였다. 건강한 피험자 5명을 상대로 긍정과 부정 시각 자극을 각각 주어서 심박 변화율과 맥파의 생리신호를 측정한 후 그 동안 발표되었던 심박 변화율의 결과를 기준으로 맥파의 결과와 비교, 분석하였다. 그 결과 평균 R-R 간격의 변화율과 맥파의 최고점 평균 시간 간격의 변화율 그리고 맥파의 최대 기울기점 사이의 시간 간격의 변화율이 유사함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 맥파의 Baseline Deflection 과 Amplitude를 이용하여 감성 측정을 시도하였다. 긍정 시각 자극에 비해 부정 시각 자극 일 때 맥파의 최고점 및 최대 기울기점의 평균 시간 간격은 감소하였고, Baseline Deflection은 증가하였고, Amplitude 는 감소하였다. 이는 부정시각 자극이 교감신경계를 활성화시킴을 보여 주는 것이다. 본 연구를 통하여 맥파도 자율 신경계의 반응을 대면하는 생리신호로써 감성 측정에 유용한 도구임을 검증할 수 있었다.

Creep life prediction has been commonly used by a time-temperature parameter (TTP) which is correlated to an applied stress and temperature, such as Larson-Miller (LM), Orr-Sherby-Dorn (OSD), Manson-Haferd (MH) and Manson-Succop (MS) parameters. A stress-temperature linear model (STLM) based on Arrhenius, Dorn and Monkman-Grant equations was newly proposed through a mathematical procedure. For this model, the logarithm time to rupture was linearly dependent on both an applied stress and temperature. The model parameters were properly determined by using a technique of maximum likelihood estimation of a statistical method, and this model was applied to the creep data of Alloy 617. From the results, it is found that the STLM results showed better agreement than the Eno’s model and the LM parameter ones. Especially, the STLM revealed a good estimation in predicting the long-term creep life of Alloy 617.

Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) has recently received attention in developing implantable surgical equipments and it is expected to lead the future medical device market by adequately imitating surgeons' flexible and delicate hand movement. However, SMA actuators have not been used widely because of their nonlinear behavior called hysteresis, which makes their control difficult. Hence, we propose a parameter, $t_1$, which is necessary for temperature control, by analyzing the open-loop step response between current and temperature and by comparing it with the values of linear differential equations. $t_1$ is a pole of the transfer function in the invariant linear model in which the input and output are current and temperature, respectively; hence, $t_1$ is found to be related to the state variable used for temperature control. When considering the parameter under heat treatment conditions, $T_{max}$ was found to assume the lowest value, and $t_1$ was irrelevant to the heat treatment.

A pixel-level readout circuit is studied for 2-dimensional microbolometer focal plane arrays (FPAs). A current mirroring injection (CMI) input circuit with 2-step current-mode bias suppression is proposed for a pixel-level architecture with high responsivity and long integration time. The proposed circuit has been designed using a $0.35-{\mu}m$ 2-poly 4-metal CMOS process for a $320{\times}240$ microbolometer array with a pixel size of $50{\mu}m{\times}50{\mu}m$. The proposed 2-step bias-current suppression has sufficiently low calibration error with wide calibration range, and the calibration range and error can be easily optimized by controlling some design parameters. Due to high responsivity and a long integration time of more than 1 ms, the noise equivalent temperature difference (NETD) of the proposed circuit can be improved to 26 mK, which is much better than that of the conventional circuits, 67 mK.

The procedure using equivalent time at reference temperature has been assessed for the estimation of kinetic parameters with experimental data. Kinetic studies of nonenzymatic browning reaction in model and food system were carried out with linearly increasing temperature method. These kinetic parameters, n, $k_{ref}$ and $E_a$ of the systems were evaluated from original data in one step by nonlinear least square regression. The one step procedure yielded efficiently accurate parameter estimation. Computer simulated data with the kinetic models were well consistent with experimental data (average correlation coefficient=0.96).

Batch experiments were carried out for adsorption equilibrium, kinetics and thermodynamic parameters of the brilliant brown R onto granular activated carbon. The operating variables studied were the initial dye concentration, contact time and temperature. Experimental equilibrium adsorption data were fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm by linear regression method. The equilibrium process was well described by Freundlich isotherm model and from the determined separation factor (1/n), granular activated carbon could be employed as an effective treatment for the removal of bismarck brown R. From kinetic experiments, the adsorption processes were found to confirm the pseudo second order model with a good correlation and the adsorption rate constant ($k_2$) increased with increasing adsorption temperature. Thermodynamic parameters like the activation energy, change of Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, and entropy were also calculated to predict the nature of adsorption in the temperature range of 298~318 K. The activation energy was determined as 8.73 kJ/mol for 100 mg/L. It was found that the adsorption of bismarck brown R on the granular activated carbon was physical process. The negative Gibbs free energy change (${\Delta}G$ = -2.59~-4.92 kJ/mol) and the positive enthalpy change (${\Delta}H$ = +26.34 kJ/mol) are indicative of the spontaneous and endothermic nature of the adsorption process.

Transparent and conducting tin oxide films were prepared on Pyrex glass substrates by the remote plasma chemical vapor deposition (RPCVD). The main control variables of the RPCVD process included the deposition time, the flow rates of tetramethyltin, oxygen and argon, the radio-frequency power, and the substrate temperature. Dependence of the deposition rate, electric resistivity, optical transmittance and crystal structure on these parameters was systematically examined to prepare high qualities of tin oxide films and to better understand RPCVD process. The effect of those parameters on the properties of tin oxide films in complicatedly related on another. A tin oxide film parameters on the protimized deposition conditions exhibited deposition rate of 102 $\AA$/min, electric resistivity of $9.7\times 10^{-3}\Omega$cm and visible transmittance of ~80%.

In the industrial field, the theory of drying process is different from the practical application, and it is effective to reduce energy by recirculation of the heat of exhausting gas. But the study of this field may not be performed still. The cure properties of the urea resin moulding compounds was investigated according to drying temperature, drying time, recycle rate of exhausting gas and moulding temperature in the process of drying and moulding. We obtained the following results; water content of material decreases with increasing drying time and drying temperature, and the rate of drying also decreases with increasing recycle rate of exhausting gas. Specially, The cure fluidity of the urea resin moulding compounds decreases, with increasing drying temperature, recycle rate of exhausting gas and moulding temperature. And the correlation equations on water content and cure fluidity of the urea resin moulding material were obtained through a regression analysis of experimental data.
