Acoustic-pressure response of diluted hydrogen-air diffusion flames is investigated numerically by adopting a fully unsteady analysis of flame structures in low and high pressure regimes. As acoustic frequency increases, finite-rate chemistry is enhanced through a nonlinear accumulation of heat release rate for any pressure regime, leading to a high amplification index. Same numerical results are analyzed with application of a pressure-sensitive time lag model, and thereby, interaction index and time lag are calculated for each pressure regime. The interaction index has the largest value in each pressure regime at an acoustic frequency near 1000 Hz. In a high-pressure regime, flames are more unstable than in a low-pressure regime. The interaction index shows a good agreement with the amplification index.

In this paper, we analyzed the characteristics of thermal deformation of the TPS which is a core part of engine in vehicle by measuring out-of-plane deformation using ESP!. Inspection area of a test piece was minimized to 5 cm by 5 cm by using a high resolution CCD and a zoom lens. 4-step phase shifting method was used along with phase unwrapping algorithm to get a continuous phase map, configurations and deformations were displayed as 3D images. When heating the test pieces while maintaining the temperature at about $70^{\circ}C$, the out-of-plane deformations were measured. The results showed that a test piece with longer distance traveled tends to show larger thermal deformation, we could observes a convex shaped deformation on the surface. The inner defect sample, we could monitor discontinuous pattern phase map, and a concave shaped deformation on the surface.

This paper presents a design of the successive approximation ADC(SA-ADC) applicable to a midium-low speed analog-front end(AFE) for the maximum 15MS/s CCD image processing. SA-ADC is effective in applications ranging widely between low and mid data rates due to the large power scaling effect on the operating frequency variations in some other way of pipelined ADCs. The proposed design exhibits some distinctive features. The "differential capacitor-coupling scheme" segregates the input sampling behavior from the sub-DAC incorporating the differential input and the sub-DAC output, which prominently reduces the loading throughout the signal path. Determining the MSB(sign bit) from the held input data in advance of the data conversion period, a kind of the signed successive approximation, leads to the reduction of the sub-DAC hardware overhead by 1 bit and the conversion period by 1 cycle. Characterizing the proposed design in a 3.3 V $0.35-{\mu}m$ CMOS process by Spectre simulations verified its validity of the application to CCD analog front-ends.

In this paper, an effect on a GPS receiver by spoofing signal is analyzed and a GPS spoofing signal detection algorithm for GPS L1 C/A spoofing signal is proposed. A proposed detection algorithm monitors the correlation function distortion by the spoofing signal. If detected distortion is over a detection threshold, we can determine that the spoofing signal is received. The detection threshold is calculated from the statistical characteristics of a thermal noise. For verifying the suggested algorithm, a MATLAB-based simulation platform is implemented. This platform has functionalities to track GPS signal and measure the correlation values. By using this platform, the correlation function distortion by spoofing signal is observed. Also a performance of the algorithm proposed in this paper is applied and confirm the detection of a spoofing signal.

purified rapeseed(Brassica napus var. Youngsan) protein was hydrolyzed by pronase. The hyrolysate protein was investigated for the some physicochemical and functional properties. UV and intrinsic fluorescence spectra of the hydrolysate showed the maximum absorption at 274nm and 360nm respectively. Intensity of yellow color decreased in the process of hydrolysis and the surface hydrophobicity decreased up to fourfold. The main bands of hydrolysate by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(SDS-PAGE) were observed at 14,000 to 12,000 dalton molecular weight. Solubilities of hydrolyzed protein increased by 10~15% compared to those of unhydrolyzed protein at acidic pH. In the hydrolysate, while absorption of both water and oil, foam expansion and emulsion stability were increased, absolute viscosity, heat coagulation, calcium coagulation, foam stability and emulsion activity were decreased.

Fungal floras were investigated for the lysimeter soil treated with municipal sewage sludge (MSS), pig manure compost (PMC), industrial sewage sludge (ISS), leather processing sludge (LS), and alcohol fermentation processing sludge (FS). Fungal populations were higher in the FS, ISS, LS, or MSS-treated soil than in the chemical fertilizer-treated soil. Isolated fungi from the sewage sludge were identified as Penicillium spp., Gliocladium spp., Acremonium spp., Trichoderma spp., Aspergillus spp., Blastomyces spp., and Phoma spp.

Recently, the development and field applications of Ternary Blended Cement(TBC), where blast furnace slag and fly ash are recycled in Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC) in order to obtain improvements in the durability and heat of hydration reduction performance in large scale civil structures, have been increasing. Also, there are continuing efforts by construction companies to reduce the construction time with the aim of reducing construction costs. Therefore, there is a need to improve the performance of TBC, which has a relatively slow early strength development. In order to improve the early strength of TBC mortar, the compressive strength, SO3 content, and SEM analysis was determined in this study on mortar with the fineness and content of blast furnace slag and anhydrite regulated. As a result, to secure the early strength of TBC mortar, using blast furnace slag with a fineness of approximately $4,200cm^2/g$, adding 3.5% anhydrite with a fineness of approximately $10,000cm^2/g$, and managing the $SO_3$ content to roughly 3.72% was found to provide the most outstanding early strength properties.

Fire fighters rely on fire fighter protective clothing (FFPC) to provide adequate protection in the various hazardous environments. To enhance its protection performance, the FFPC material must be thick and thus it is difficult to achieve weight reduction. One of the methods of overcoming this problem, the addition of phase change material (PCM) to FFPC, is a new technology. In previous studies, the researches was mostly related to the temperature characteristics of the fibers incorporating PCM, but little information is available about its effect on burn injuries. Thus, in this study, the inhibitory effects of adding PCM to FFPC on second degree burns were investigated through numerical calculations. Thermal analyses of biological tissues and FFPC with embedded PCM exposed to several fire conditions causing severe tissue damage were studied by using a finite difference method based on the Pennes bio-heat equation. FFPC with embedded PCM was found to provide significantly greater protection than conventional fire fighting clothing, because the heat of absorption due to the phase change within the material is used to limit the heat conduction of the material.

탄소 나노튜브(Carbon nanotubes, CNTs)는 육각형 모양의 구조로서 오직 탄소만으로 이루어진 소재이다. CNT는 열전도율이 다이아몬드보다 약 2배 우수하고, 전기 전도는 구리에 비해 1,000배 높으며, 강도는 강철보다 100배나 뛰어나다. CNT의 이러한 특성을 이용한 트랜지스터, 태양전지, 가스 검출을 위한 고감도 센서, 나노 섬유, 고분자-탄소나노튜브 고기능 복합체 등 많은 분야에서 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 또한 수직으로 성장된 탄소 나노튜브는 일반적인 재료에서는 보기 드물게 힘들게 직경이 나노 크기인 반면 길이는 수 mm까지 합성 되기 때문에 앞서 언급한 분야로의 활용이 더욱 유리하며, 그 중에서도 나노 섬유, 나노 복합체로서의 활용에 극히 유용하다. 이러한 이유로 수직 배열된 CNT 합성에 많은 연구가 집중 되고 있다. 여러 합성 방법 중 성장 변수를 비교적 용이하게 조절 가능한 열 화학 기상 증착법(Thermal chemical vapor deposition, TCVD)을 이용하여 수직 배열된 수 mm의 CNT를 합성한 연구 결과들이 보고된 바 있다. 그러나 앞선 연구결과들은 CNT의 성장속도가 느릴 뿐만 아니라 합성 시간이 길어질수록 성장 속도가 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 반면, 마이크로웨이브 플라즈마 화학 기상 증착법(Microwave plasma CVD, MPCVD)은 기존의 다른 TCVD에 비해 낮은 온도에서 CNT를 합성할 수 있는 장점을 가지며, 고출력(~600 W 이상)의 플라즈마를 사용하기 때문에 성장률이 높고 고밀도의 CNT 합성이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 철을 촉매금속으로 사용하고 MPCVD을 이용하여 얇은 다중벽 CNT를 합성하였다. 철은 직류 마그네트론 스퍼터(D.C magnetron sputter)를 사용하여 증착하였다. 합성시 가스는 탄소 공급원인 메탄($CH_4$)과 함께 플라즈마 공급원인 수소($H_2$)를 사용하였다. 또한 산소($O_2$)의 주입 여부에 따른 CNT의 성장 속도와 성장 길이를 비교하였다. 산소를 주입하였을 때, CNT의 성장 속도와 길이 모두 크게 향상됨을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이는 촉매금속 표면의 비정질 탄소의 흡착으로 인해 활성화된 촉매금속의 반응시간을 증가시키기 때문이다. 성장된 CNT는 주사전자 현미경(Scanning Electron Microscopy, SEM)과 라만 분광법(Raman spectroscopy)을 통해 표면형상과 결정성을 분석하였다.

The capnograph system for determining the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the blood of a patient was developed based on the NDIR(non-dispersive infrared) absorption technology. NDIR gas analyzing method requires an optical absorption chamber and signal processing hardware. In this paper, we have designed and implemented NDIR type $CO_2$ gas chamber in consideration of the time response characteristics and lamp chopping frequency. And we have implemented signal processing hardware using two infrared sources to reduce the thermal background effect. The implemented gas chamber and signal processing hardware were tested in the temperature variation experiment and human expiratory experiment. The results showed that the system could produce a stable output signal and a good $CO_2$ gas concentration curve like a typical capnogram.
