When the Chebyshev function is applied to design the waveguide transition, it exhibits poor impedance matching characteristics due to impedance discontinuities at the ends of tapered line. In this paper, an improved Chebyshev function, which is obtained by using the convolution property, is proposed to make improvements on the impedance matching characteristics of the waveguide transition. When rectangular to circular waveguide transition is designed by improved function, then the computed return loss is approximately 5 dB better than the conventional Chebyshev function.

Modal properties for tapered cantilever pipe-type beam is identified by applying the boundary conditions to a general solution for tapered beam. A bending stiffness for cracked beam is constructed based on an energy method for tapered cantilever thin-walled pipe, which has a through-the-thickness crack, subjected to bending. Then the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a tapered cantilever thin-walled cracked pipe are identified. It can be found that the phenomenon of the bending stiffness distribution along the beam length of the cracked beam is quite reasonable, the natural frequencies are decreased as the crack sizes are increased, and the mode shapes are changed due to the crack. This results may be used to the vibration-based crack identification for the tapered cantilever pipe-type tower structures.

체외 충격파 쇄석술 (ESWL)은 체외에서 발생된 충격파를 체내의 결석이 위치한 부위에 집속하여 결석을 분쇄하는 비 침습적인 치료술이다. 최근 충격파를 이용하여 근관절 질환을 치료하는 체외 충격 파 치료술 (ESWT)이 또한 임상적으로 주목을 받고 있다. 아직 ESWT를 위한 최적의 충격파 노출 조건은 알려져 있지 않지만, 일반적으로 ESWL에 비해 상대적으로 충격파장의 초점 영역이 넓고 낮은 강도의 충격파를 사용한다. 본 연구에서는 ESWT에 적합할 것으로 예상되는 테이퍼 원통형 충격파 발생 방식을 제안하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 테이퍼 원통형 충격 파 발생 의 초점 부위의 파형을 수치 해석하여 평가하고, 기존 원통형의 경우와 비교하였다. 테이퍼 원통형 충격파 발생기의 시제품을 제작하고, 발생된 강도를 평가하기 위해, 모의 결석을 제작하여 분쇄 효율을 측정하였으며, 결과를 원통형 충격파 발생기와 비교하였다.

In this paper, the design of a miniaturized wideband tapered slot antenna using slots combining various types of fan-shaped structures was studied. To miniaturize the tapered slot antenna and make it operate at low frequencies, slots combining fan-shaped structures were added to the ground plane of the tapered slot antenna. The miniaturization design process of the final proposed antenna was systematically explained by comparing the input reflection coefficient and gain variations when each fan-shaped structure was appended, compared to when there was no slot. The proposed miniaturized wideband tapered slot antenna using slots combining the fan-shaped structures was fabricated on an RF-35 substrate and its measured characteristics were compared with the simulation results. Experiment results show that the frequency band with a voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) less than 2 was 2.59-11.39 GHz, and gain within the band was measured to be 3.3-7.0 dBi. The proposed miniaturized wideband tapered slot antenna can be reduced in size by 36.9%, compared to when there are no slots in the ground plane.

In a roll-to-roll continuous system, winding is one of the most important processes since it determines the quality of the final manufactured products such as flexible film and printed electronic devices. Since an adequate winding tension can reduce the incidence of the defects that are derived from the inner stress of the wound roll such as starring and telescoping, it is necessary to determine the optimal taper-tension profile. In this study, an algorithm for the setting of an optimal taper-tension profile in consideration of the residual stress in the wound roll is suggested; furthermore, the algorithm was adjusted for the determination of an optimal taper-tension profile regarding the winding process of $10{\mu}m$ polypropylene (PP) film. As a result of the algorithm-generated, optimal taper-tension profile, the residual stress and radial stress in a PP wound roll were decreased to 27.37 % and 40.05 % (mean value), respectively.

Nuclear power plant contain many dissimilar metal welds that connect carbon steel components with stainless steel pipes using alloy600 welding materials. Primary water stress corrosion cracks at dissimilar metal welds have been continuously reported around the world. In periodic integrity evaluations, dissimilar metal welds are examined using a generic ultrasonic testing procedure, KPD-UT-10. In this procedure, the gap between the probe and examination surface is limited to 1/32 inch (0.8mm). It is not easy to test some dissimilar metal welds in Korean plants applying ordinary technology because of their tapered shapes and irregular surface conditions. This paper introduces a method for applying a flexible phased array technology to improve the reliability of ultrasonic testing results for various shapes and surface conditions. The artificial flaws in specimens with irregular surfaces were completely detected using the flexible phased array ultrasonic technology. Therefore, it can be said that the technology is applicable to field examination.

In this study, the stress reduction effect was evaluated for GFRP/Mg single lap bonded joints according to six different adherend shapes. Six different types of the single lap joint specimen were modeled and assessed using geometrically nonlinear finite element analysis. Moreover, three dimensional effect of stress distribution for the different adherend shapes was investigated. From the analysis, the dissimilar single lap bonded joint with the normal tapering and without the spew fillet (model 2) showed the highest stress values. In contrast, the peel stress values of both the square ended adherends with the spew fillet (model 3) and the reverse tapered adherends with the spew fillet (model 5) were 65.8% and 65.5% lower than the reference model.

The paper describes the vibration and the stability of nonuniform tapered beams resting on two-layered elastic foundations. The two-layered elastic foundations are constructed by discributed Winkler springs and shearing layers as ofen used in oil models. Governing equations are derived from energy experssions using Hamilton's Principle. The associated eigenvalue problems are solved to obtain the free vibration frequencies or the buckling loads. Numerical results for the vibration and the stability of beams under an axial force are presented and compared with other available solutions. Finally, vibration frequencies and critical forces are investigated for various thickness ratios, shear foundation parameters, Winkler foundation parameters, and boundary conditions of tapered beams.

최근 대학교는 CQI(Continuous Quality Improvement) 등의 방대한 교육 관련 데이터를 수집하고 있고 이를 분석하여 교육 및 경영에 활용하고 있다. 핵심어는 텍스트의 내용을 간결하게 표현할 수 있는 단어이다. 그래서 CQI 보고서의 의미를 파악하기 위해서는 먼저 핵심어 추출이 필요하다. CQI 보고서에서 핵심어를 추출하면 이후 정보 검색, 인덱싱, 분류, 클러스터링, 필터링 등과 같은 많은 응용 작업을 용이하게 수행할 수 있다. 따라서 방대한 양의 CQI 보고서로부터 핵심어 추출을 자동화한다면 이후 요약 및 의미 파악에 많은 도움이 될 것이다. 이 논문에서는 CQI 보고서 요약을 위해 자동적으로 핵심어를 추출하는 방법을 제안한다.
