Purpose of this study is to analyze the roles and strategies of imagistic simulation observed in mental simulation about problematic situation of prediction, and thereby identify the process of generating prediction, explanation and sophistication. For this study, a framework for mental simulation process and strategy based on literary research was developed and content was validated from four experts of science education. This study was participated by 10 preliminary elementary school teachers, and a total of 20 cases were gathered for two thought experiment tasks based on the think-aloud method. The results were as follows: First, mental simulation process described based on the seven elements of 'perception,' 'interpretation,' 'statement of initial representation,' 'running imagistic simulation,' 'identifying result of simulation,' 'identifying alignment' and 'restatement structured representation.' The study confirmed that initial representation by interpreting related concepts and running imagistic simulation a number of times to develop explanation and prediction. Second, the study identified the use of strategies to enhance simulation such as 'zoom in,' 'partition,' 'dimensional enhancement,' 'dimensional reduction,' 'remove,' 'replace' and 'extreme case.' Running spatial transformation that uses strategy to enhance simulation contributed to discovering mechanism elements in problematic situations.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the conceptual simulation observed when students are thinking about the causes of the seasonal change, identifying how students come up with the explanation. For this study, a framework for conceptual simulation process and strategy based on literary research was developed and its validity was proved by four experts in the field of science education. The results were as in the following: First, through the process of explaining the causes for seasonal change, students usually base their explanation on perceptual experience learned from model experiments from a science class. Besides, construct of thought experiment using the familiar object or analogize of the familiar perceptual experience. These all contributed to on explanation firmly. Second, errors from mental simulation were found in the statement of initial representation and running imagistic simulation. It happened when statement of initial representation is not in a complete and secure state or when participants think of an inappropriate situation during running imagistic simulation. Third, the study identified that the use of strategies like 'removal' and 'replace' was shown to enhance the effects of conceptual simulation particularly in regard with solar attitude at meridian passage.

평균조도 계산법 중에서 국내에서 주로 사용되는 3배광법과 ZCM의 정확도를 비교하고, 그 적용한계를 파악하였다. 비교방법은 전반확산형 조명기구와 직접식 조명기구에 대하여 3배광법과 ZCM에 의한 조명률을 계산하고, 이 값들을 이용하여 여러 상황하에서의 평균조도를 계산하였다. 몬테카를로 시뮬레이션으로 동일상황에서의 조도값을 구하고, 이 값과 3배광법과 ZCM의 조도값을 각각 비교하였다. MCS법의 정확도는 Moon위 해석적인 방법과 비교하여 입증하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 방의 크기에 따른 평균조도 비교에서 전반확　형 조명기구와 직접식 조명기구의 경우 3배광법 보다 ZCM이 평균조도 오차가 적었다. 2. 광원의 수 변화에 따른 평균조도 비교에서 직접식 조명기구의 경우 3배광법은 광원의 수가 증가할수록 평균조도 오차가 감소하다가 다시 증가하였고 ZCM 은 점차적으로 감소하였다. 3. 실내면 반사율 변화에 따른 비교에서 직접식 조명기구의 경우 오차 범의가 3배광법에서 크고 ZCM에서 적게 나타냈다. 4. 방의 형태 변화에 따른 평균조도 비교에서 직접식 조명기구의 경우 방의 폭이 좁고 길이가 긴 공간에서 3배광법과 ZCM모두 오차가 크게 낱났다. 또 정방형에서 가까울수록 오차는 작아지면서 3배광법 보다 ZCM의 오차가 적었다. 그러므로 우리나라에서 혼용되고 있는 3배광법과 ZCM중에서 정확도가 높은 ZCM선택이 바람직하다.

An artificial body force method is presented to accurately simulate drawing processes in which back pressing is exerted. A rigid-plastic finite element method is applied together with a numerical scheme to eliminate the numerically incurred plastic deformation in rigid or elastic region, which significantly influences simulation results because it eventually changes reduction of area in drawing. Back tension or compression is applied by body force at the rear part of material to obtain numerically stable solution. Two typical examples are shown, a drawing process with back tension applied and a tube drawing with a fixed plug and back pressing applied.

The purpose of this study is deriving proper plan which is improving functionality of three-way intersection in two-way road by using shoulder. Alternatives of this study were considered as installation of yield lane and application of TWLTLs (Two-Way Left-Turn Lanes). Case studies to utilize alternatives were limited to national and local roadways which is wider than 11 meters due to be required 3 lanes. Under various traffic conditions such as traffic volume of each direction and left-turn, alternatives were analyzed by simulation. As a results, application of TWLTLs was better than installation of yield lane in terms of improving rate (8.0% vs. 3.7%). Application of TWLTLs is supposed to better alternative, however enough driver education is required to improving safety because it is different with existing driving pattern and/or behaviors. Some limitations and future research agenda have also been discussed by on-site inspections.

This paper is studied on boost AC-DC converter of high power factor and high efficiency for discontinuous current control. The converter operated in discontinuous current control eliminates the complicated circuit control requirement, and reduces a number of components. The input current waveform in proposed circuit is got to be a discontinuous sinusoidal form in proportion to magnitude of ac input voltage under the constant duty cycle switching. Therefore, the input power factor is nearly unity and the control circuit is simple. Also the switching devices in a proposed circuit are operated with soft switching by the partial resonant method. The result is that the switching loss is very low and the efficiency of system is high. The partial resonant circuit makes use of a inductor using step up and loss-less snubber capacitor. The circuit topology of the converter is simplified. Some simulative results on computer and experimental results are included to confirm the validity of the analytical results.

Kinetic energy(KE) rod warhead system is a new interceptor which combines advantages of existing ones. This system is less dependant on a precision guidance than direct hit type warhead and gives high penetration rates than blast fragmentation type warhead. In this paper, isotropic KE rod warhead system is introduced with detonation/deployment model. A penetration effects of the deployed rods are calculated using TATE penetration equation. Also, an engagement performance analysis method is suggested. Finally, an optimal detonation time and engagement geometry is derived by Monte-Carlo simulation in various engagement situation using the performance analysis factor.

In this paper, an ultra low voltage SRAM design method based on dual-boosted cell bias technique is described. For each read/write cycle, the wordline and cell power node of the selected SRAM cells are boosted into two different voltage levels. This enhances SNM(Static Noise Margin) to a sufficient amount without an increase of the cell size, even at sub 1-V supply voltage. It also improves the SRAM circuit speed owing to increase of the cell read-out current. The proposed design technique has been demonstrated through 0.8-V, 32K-byte SRAM macro design in a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. Compared to the conventional cell bias technique, the simulation confirms an 135 % enhancement of the cell SNM and a 31 % faster speed at 0.8-V supply voltage. This prototype chip shows an access time of 23 ns and a power dissipation of $125\;{\mu}W/Hz$.

A 6~10 GHz wide-band power amplifier was designed using an InGaAs enhancement-mode(E-mode) $0.15{\mu}m$ pseudomorphic high-electron-mobility transistor(pHEMT). The positive gate bias of the E-mode pHEMT device removes the need for complex negative voltage generation circuits, therefore reducing the module size. The wire bond and substrate loss parameters were modeled and extracted using a three-dimensional electromagnetic(3D EM) simulation. For wideband characteristics, lossy matching was adopted and the gate bias was optimized for maximum power and efficiency. The measured gain, in/output return loss, output power, and power-added efficiency were greater than 20 dB, 8 dB, 27 dBm, and 35 %, respectively, in the 6~10 GHz band.
