상계요소 해석(UBET) 프로그램은 비대칭 단조공정에서의 다이 충만과정과 단조 하중등을 예측하기 위하여 개발되었다. 보다 용이하게 단조 공정을 해석하기 위하여 비대칭 형상의 단조공정을 평면변형부(길이 부분)과 축대칭변형부(라운딩 부분)으로 나누었다. 평면변형부와 축대칭 변형부의 경계는 전단에너지를 고려하여 결합하는 빌딩 블록 방법(building block method)을 이용하였다. 그리고 본 연구의 비대칭 형상을 단조하는데 최적의 초기시편 형상으로 아령형의 시편(dumbbell-typed billet)을 제시하였다. 또한 실험은 상온에서 플라스티신을 사용하여 수행되었고 수치해석 결과와 실험결과는 비교적 잘 일치하였다.상계요소 해석(UBET) 프로그램은 비대칭 단조공정에서의 다이 충만과정과 단조 하중등을 예측하기 위하여 개발되었다. 보다 용이하게 단조 공정을 해석하기 위하여 비대칭 형상의 단조공정을 평면변형부(길이 부분)과 축대칭변형부(라운딩 부분)으로 나누었다. 평면변형부와 축대칭 변형부의 경계는 전단에너지를 고려하여 결합하는 빌딩 블록 방법(building block method)을 이용하였다. 그리고 본 연구의 비대칭 형상을 단조하는데 최적의 초기시편 형상으로 아령형의 시편(dumbbell-typed billet)을 제시하였다. 또한 실험은 상온에서 플라스티신을 사용하여 수행되었고 수치해석 결과와 실험결과는 비교적 잘 일치하였다.

The tread pattern of a tire has an important effect on tire performances such as handling, wear, noise, hydroplaning and so on. However, a finite element analysis of a patterned tire with detailed tread blocks has been limited owing to the complexity of making meshes for tread blocks and the huge computation time. The computation time has been shortened due to the advance in the computer technology. The modeling of tread blocks usually requires creating a solid model using a CAD software. Therefore it is a very complicated and time-consuming job to generate meshes of a patterned tire using a CAD model. A new efficient and convenient method for generating meshes of a patterned tire has been developed. In this method, 3-D meshes of tread pattern are created by mapping 2-D meshes of tread geometry onto 3-D tread surfaces and extruding them through tread depth. Then, the tread pattern meshes are assembled with the tire body meshes by the tie contact constraint. Residual aligning torque and frictional energy are calculated by using a patterned tire model and compared to the experimental results. It is shown that the calculated results of a patterned tire model are in a good agreement with the experimental ones.

This paper presents an effective motion estimation to improve the performance of the motion compensated temporal filtering (MCTF) which is a core part of the wavelet-based scalable video coding. The proposed scheme makes the motion vector field uniform by the modified median operation and the search strategies using adjacent motion vectors, in order to enhance the pixel connectivity which is significantly relevant to the performance of the MCTF. Moreover, the motion estimation with variable block sizes that reflects the features of frames is introduced for further correlation improvement of the motion vector field. Experimental results illustrate that the proposed method reduces the decomposed energy on the temporal high frequency subband frame up to 30.33% in terms of variance compared to the case of the full search with fixed block sizes.

This paper describes a DC-DC Boost converter for Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting. The designed converter boosts the $V_{DD}$ through a start-up block from a low output voltage of thermoelectric devices and the boosted $V_{DD}$ is used to operate the internal block circuits. When $V_{DD}$ reaches a predefined value, a detector circuit makes the start-up block turn off for minimizing current consumption. The final boosted $V_{OUT}$ is achieved by alternately operating the DC-DC converter for $V_{DD}$ and the other converter for final output $V_{OUT}$ according to the comparator output. Simulation results shows that the designed converter outputs 2.8V from an input voltage of 200mV. The area of the chip designed using a 0.35um CMOS process is $1.52mm{\times}0.95mm$ including pads.

A numerical simulation has been performed for the penetration of a long-rod penetrator into a metal block (ceramic-tile-inserted 4340-steel plate). The impact velocity is 1.5km/s at a normal incidence angle. The first two validations are conducted for a semi-infinite block measuring the depth of penetration (DOP). The material model of ceramic is the JH-2 (Johnson-Holmquist) model. The predicted DOP values are in close agreement with the experimental data. Then, the primary simulation is performed by varying the position of the confined ceramic tile for three types of thickness of ceramic tile. The residual velocity, residual mass and residual kinetic energy of the long-rod are obtained from the simulation. Based on these predicted values, the trend of the ballistic performance of the protective structure is estimated. In addition, the mass efficiency is calculated in order to determine the performance of the ceramic-tile-inserted metal block. Finally, the optimum protective structure is identified.

Transform, subband, and wavelet transform decompositions are powerful linear transformation tools in image coding because of their decorrelating effects on image pixels, the concentration of energy in a few coefficients, their multirat/multiresolution framework, and their frequency splitting, which allows for efficient coding matched to the statistics of each frequency band and to the characteristics of the human visulal system. Thus, a growingbody of research has bee performed to extend these tools in various kinds of modified formations. Hence, in this paper, an overall survey to achieve a general view on these transformation tools have been attempted. Starting from basic tools such as orthogonal transforms, lapped transforms, QMF(quadrature mirror filter) subband filter banks, and wavelet transforms, their hierarchical extensions, vector extensions, and linear time-varying extensions are investugated in detail.

Underground compressed air energy storage (CAES) system in a lined rock cavern is considered one of the promising large-scale energy storage technologies. In this study, permeabilities of concrete lining block and its construction joint, which are the major components of an air tightness system of the undeground CAES, were measured from a model experiment. From the experiment, it was found that intrinsic permeability of construction joint was larger than that of concrete block by the order scale of $10^1{\sim}10^4$, so that it would be very important to control the quality of construction joints in-situ in order to secure air tightness of storage system. And the permeability of construction joint could be decreased as low as that of the concrete block by pasting an acryl-type adhesive on bonding surfaces. Higher degrees of water saturation of the concrete block resulted in the lower permeability, which is more preferable in the viewpoint of air tightness of storage cavern.

In the global IT market, a lot of issues for responding to various environmental regulations emerged. In case of the data centers, it is consuming huge amounts of energy to maintain. So there have been various technical attempts as Consolidation, Virtualization, Optimization to efficiently manage energy and data storage to fix the problems. In this paper, we propose a new RAID(Redundant Array of Independent Disks) mechanism which is differing the intensity of power consumption and works to provide data protection and disaster recovery(backup, mirroring etc.) to stratify multiple volumes. G-RAID minimize the power consumption and the lower of I/O performance by selecting the volume depending on the frequency of data access while classifying the power consumption between volumes in storage system. Also, it is possible that a filesystem and block map information of G-RAID is processed by basic unit which is group located in a row for the blocks to work efficiently and can minimize the performance degradation of block mapping load by the access frequency in each groups. As a result, we obtained to elevate a little bit of response time caused by block relocation work, but showed the decrease of power consumption by 38%.
