We have implemented a sensor head which consists of erbium doped fiber pumped by 1480 nm LD and single fiber Bragg grating for simultaneous measurement of strain and temperature. The measurement precision and speed are improved by using Mach-Zehnder interferometer instead of optical spectrum analyzer (OSA) as a demodulator. The measurement precision of temperature measured by the amplitude variation of output signal is 0.05$^{\circ}C$ and that of strain measured by the phase variation of output signal is 0.1$\mu$strain. The measurement precision of temperature and strain are improved nearly 140 times and 700 times, respectively, compared to those using an OSA with wavelength resolution of 0.97 nm as d demodulator.

This study was carried out for the analysis of temperature characteristics on soil surface using soil heat flux which is one of the important parameters forming soil temperature. Soil surface temperature was estimated by using the soil temperature measured at 10 cm soil depth and the soil heat flux measured by flux plate at 5 cm soil depth. There was time lag of two hours between soil temperature and soil heat flux. Temperature changes over time showed a positive correlation with soil heat flux. Soil surface temperature was estimated by the equation using variable separation method for soil surface temperature. Arithmetic mean using temperatures measured at soil surface and 10 cm depth, and soil temperature measured at 5 cm depth were compared for accuracy of the value. To validate the regression model through this comparison, F-validation was used. Usefulness of deductive regression model was admitted because intended F-value was smaller than 0.001 and the determination coefficient was 0.968. It can be concluded that the estimated surface soil temperatures obtained by variable separation method were almost equal to the measured surface soil temperature.

A technique is presented to extract differential second harmonic output from common source nodes of a cross-coupled P-& N-FET oscillator. Provided the impedances at the common source nodes are optimized and the fundamental swing at the VCO core stays in a proper mode, it is found that the amplitude and phase errors can be kept within $0{\sim}1.6dB$ and $+2.2^{\circ}{\sim}-5.6^{\circ}$, respectively, over all process/temperature/voltage corners. Moreover, an impedance-tuning circuit is proposed to compensate any unexpectedly high errors on the differential signal output. A Prototype 5-GHz VCO with a 2.5-Hz LC resonator is implemented in $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS. The error signal between the differential outputs has been measured to be as low as -70 dBm with the aid of the tuning circuit. It implies the push-push outputs are satisfactorily differential with the amplitude and phase errors well less than 0.34 dB and $1^{\circ}$, respectively.

2개의 케플러 접촉쌍성인 KIC 8804824와 KIC 10229723의 초정밀 측광 자료를 가장 최신 버전의 윌슨-디비니 코드로 분석하여 정밀한 측광 해를 산출하고, 그 잔차들을 매우 자세하게 조사하였다. 두 개의 케플러 접촉 쌍성은 제2식이 편평한 광도곡선을 가지고 있어, 이 두 쌍성은 W UMa형 A sub-group에 속한다. 또한, 광도곡선의 모양이 매우 대칭이며, 시간에 따른 변화가 크지 않다. 두 별의 측광 해를 살펴 본 결과, 두 별은 모두 주성의 온도가 부성의 온도보다 높고, 0.2보다 작은 극단적인 질량비와 90도에 거의 가까운 궤도경사각을 갖고 있다. 무엇보다도, 두 별의 측광 해의 잔차에서 공통적으로 전 위상에 걸쳐 모형화 되지 않은 특이한 구조를 발견하였다. 이 구조는 phase smearing 효과를 고려하더라도 그 구조의 모습만이 약간 달라질 뿐, 구조의 진폭에는 크게 영향을 미치지 않는 것을 발견하였다. 흥미롭게도 이 현상은 두 별의 주기가 각각 다름에도 불구하고 공통적으로 나타나며, 관측된 전 쿼터에 대해 나타난다. 이 현상의 가능한 원인에 대해 논의한다.

For an analysis of the horizontal-type geothermal heat exchanger system, an understanding of the ground temperature distributions is required in order to predict system performance. Because it is difficult to decide on the underground temperature due to the adjustment of its temperature cycle, numerous calculations are required in order to decide on the temperature cycle. In this paper, Buggs formula is utilized to decide a phase shift for outdoor temperature and ground surface temperature, which are obtained from Korea Meteorological Administration. Overall, the underground temperature distribution in the Changwon region is predicted as $10.5^{\circ}C{\sim}20.3^{\circ}C$ at a depth of 3 m.

In thesis we applied the short or open reflection type for IQ vector modulator The open or short type is operated even exception of other redundancy circuit. Generally IQ vector modulator uses MESFET in performing reflection open or short, then minus voltage which is having complex structure is required to operate MESFET via IQ signal. However BJT can be substituted for MESFET, BJT is improved characteristics like as cutoff frequency, electron mobility and so on. We used BJT in IQ vector modulator which is compatible with TTL level in I,Q digital signal, and attached AGC function. We got the result of operations within ${\pm}$ 1$^{\circ}$ phase and ${\pm}$ 0.6 dB amplitude Variation With full range of 20 dB and Variation of ${\pm}$ 6$^{\circ}$ Phase and ${\pm}$ 0.5 dB amplitude Versus full temperature range.

The wall heat transfer of backward-facing step laminar flows with different Prandtl numbers and a pulsating inlet is investigated by unsteady simulations. The inlet is perturbed by the variation of frequency and amplitude. Temperature-dependent transport properties are adopted. Various characteristics of the wall heat transfer are explained by the variation of the thermal boundary layer. For Pr < 1, the wall heat transfer of temperature-dependent properties is decreased compared to that of constant properties, whereas it increases for Pr < 1. In addition, the wall heat transfer increases depending on the pulsating amplitude. However, the results of frequency variation for St < 0.2 show that the heat transfer is strongly enhanced at a specific frequency. In particular, the increase in the wall heat transfer is strongly related to the root mean square of the fluctuations of the reattachment length.

Compaction is known to critically affect pavement performance. Due to its importance, a theoretical modelling of compacted density in the term of number of roller coverages is attempted by assuming compaction process essentially identical to pavement rutting. Excellent data fittings by the developed equation may prove the validation of assumptions made as well as justification of its use. According to the derived equation, a plot of density difference with respect to number of roller coverages in the logarithmic scale Produces a linear relationship. However, this linearity is turned out to be deviated by cooling effect, change of amplitude and frequency. Investigation of these three factors proposes a new generalized compaction density equation, which shows a promising future. By applying this general formula, the equations for the number of roller coverages required and the final compaction density obtained for a particular compaction project is derived first time in compaction research.

A new measuring system for ultrasonic spectroscopy was constructed, utilizing PVDF [poly(vinylidene fluoride)] polymer films as wideband transducers. In a test of its performance, this measuring system was successfully applied to study of the nematic-isotropic phase transition in MBBA(p-methoxybenzylidene-p-n-butylan iline) liquid crystal. We could be confirmed that the phase transition in MBBA is $47^{\circ}C$, which is agree with the exciting optical method. The dependence of frequency on the phase transition was not observed, and but Maximum ultrasonic amplitude is measured for the resonance frequency 2MHz in PVDF transducers, These results shows that the spectroscopy with PVDF transducers takes advantage of studying the transient phenomena. When our apparatus is applied in medical purposes, It will be possible diagnostic for sickle-cell anemia and arterial sclerosis.

In relation to the application of magnetic method to the evaluation of irradiation damage (embrittlement) changes in the magnetic parameters(hysteresis loop and Barkhausen noise) and Vickers microhardness due to neutron irradiation and heat treatment were measured and compared. In the case of irradiation $(2.3{\times}10^{19}\;n/cm^2,\; E{\ge}1\;Mev,\; 288{\circ}C)$ hysteresis loop measurements show that susceptibility decreases as coercivity increase. Saturation magnetization do not show any change. Barkhausen noise amplitude and Barkhausen noise energy have decreased while Vickers microhardness has increased. For isothermally heat treated condition of irradiated specimen at 470 $^{\circ}C$ and 540 $^{\circ}C$, Barkhausen noise energy has increased while Vickers microhardness has decreased. Results of BNE and Vickers microhardness are reversed to the results on irradiated condition. All these consistent changes in magnetic parameter and Vickers microhardness measurement, which are thought to be resulted from the interaction between irradiation-induced defects and dislocation, and magnetic domain, respectively, show a possibility that magnetic measurement may be used to the evaluation of material degradation and recovery due to neutron irradiation and heat treatment, respectively, if a relevant large database in prepared.
