The electrical and mechanical properties of room temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone rubber composites are investigated as functions of multi-walled carbon nanotube (CNT), carbon black (CB), and thinner content. The thinner is used to improve the CNT and CB dispersion in the matrix. The electrical and mechanical properties of the composite with CNT are improved when compared to the composite with CB at the same content. As the thinner content is 80 phr, the electric resistance of the composite decreases significantly with the CNT content and shows contact point saturation of CNT at 2.5 phr. As the thinner content increases, the dispersion of conductive particles improves; however, the critical CB content increases because of the reduction in the CB weight ratio. It is believed that an electrode that needs good flexibility and excellent electrical properties can be manufactured when the amount of CNT and CB are increased with the thinner content.

In this paper, we propose an effective method to detect the regions of interests in the Videostrobokymography System. Videostrobokymography system is a medical image processing system for extracting automatically the diagnosis parameters from the irregular vibratory movements of the vocal fold. We detect the regions of interests through three steps. In the first step, we remove the noise in the input image and we find the minimum energy value in each frame. In the second step, we computed the edge by everage value for the one line. In the third step, the regions of interests can be extracted by using the Merge Algorithm which uses the variance of luminance as the feature points. We experimented this method for the vocal fold images of nineteen patients. In consequence, the regions of interests are detected in most vocal fold images. The method proposed in this study is efficient enough to extract the region of interests in the vocal fold images with the frame rate of 40 frames/second and the resolution of 200${\times}$280 pixels.

Presently, safety management of facilities is conducted as a site-oriented safety inspection, but depending on the facilities, there are difficulties in access to the site, and the cost and time of inspection are inefficient due to excessive reliance on human resources. Therefore, the necessity of sensor-based safety management is being raised to ensure the safety of the facility at all times, and various studies on sensor safety management are being conducted, but the research on verification of practicality is still insufficient. Therefore, the improvement points were presented through analysis of domestic and international studies, and additional processes for setting sensor attachment location and threshold were derived by analyzing the H city sensor safety management process, and practicality of sensor safety management was verified through sensor data measurement values. It is expected that efficient, sensor-based facility safety management will be possible if clear criteria and ongoing practicality verification for the additional processes presented in this study should be carried out in the future.

과거 1990년대에 인터넷 이용이 전 세계로 확산되면서 World Wide Web를 이용하여 다양한 웹 서비스 기술의 구현 및 유통은 현재에도 개발되고 있다. 일반적으로 오늘날의 서비스는 XML 및 인터넷을 통하여 웹 서비스로 구현한 응용프로그램간의 연동을 가능하게 하는 기반기술이다. 이는 단순 객체 접근 프로토콜(SOAP), 웹 서비스 기술 언어(WSDL), 전역 비즈니스 레지스트리(UDDI) 등의 표준 기술을 사용하여 네트워크에 연결된 다른 컴퓨터 간의 분산 컴퓨팅을 지원하는 소프트웨어 및 기술이다. 이러한 웹 서비스의 발전으로 웹 서비스의 성능이 웹 서비스 제공자의 성패를 좌우하게 되고, 제공하고 있는 웹 서비스에 대한 검증이 필요하게 되었다. 웹 서비스에 대한 검증은 미국 Bloor NA(Bloor Research-North America)에서 웹 서비스 아키텍처의 단점을 발표하여 서비스의 품질과 신뢰성 및 개선점에 대하여 제시되어 활발한 연구가 진행 중에 있다. 그러나 사용자 관점에서 웹 서비스의 성능을 측정하고, 단순한 서비스 제공자의 서비스 검증 목적만이 아닌 서비스 제공자의 성능을 서비스 사용자에게 제공하는 검증 방법에 관한 연구가 많지 않은 실정이다. 하천공간정보에 대하여 웹 서비스 방식 중 통신 프로토콜인 HTTP 등을 이용한 인터넷상의 메시지 교환을 가능하게 하는 통신 프로토콜인 SOAP 및 WWW와 같은 분산 하이퍼미디어 시스템을 위한 소프트웨어 아키텍처의 한 형식인 REST(Representational State Transfer)를 실행하여 이에 따른 검증 프로세스를 수립하였다. 하천공간정보 웹 서비스에 대한 테스트 시나리오는 응답시간, 임계성능, 이용가능성, 신뢰성 및 접근성에 대하여 검증하며 하나 이상의 웹 서비스들 간의 호환성 표준의 준수 여부와 상호 운용 가능 여부를 테스트 하는 상호운용성 테스트, 신뢰성 메시징 및 분산 환경에서의 트랜잭션 처리 성능을 검증하는 웹 서비스 프로세스 품질 테스트를 실시하는 방안을 도출하고자 한다.

In this study, cationic gemini surfactants were synthesized by increasing the length of the hydrophobic chain and using 1,4-butanediol as a spacer, and the result was confirmed by $^1H-NMR$. The synthesized surfactant was a white powder, and Kraffts point was below $0^{\circ}C$. Surface tension measurements revealed that the evaluated critical micelle concentration (c.m.c) was $1.8{\times}10^{-3}{\sim}6.5{\times}10^{-4}mol/L$ with a surface tension of 22.5~26.1 dyne/cm at the c.m.c. The initial foam height for CG 14-6E-14 estimated by Ross-Miles method was 16 cm and after 5 minutes the height was 14 cm. It was confirmed that the initial foam force and foam stability were the highest. The foam test and emulsion stability of synthesized gemini cationic surfactants were also compared to those of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), a commoly used surfactant.

Several typical hyper-elastic constitutive models that encompass both conventional and advanced ones were investigated for the application of instability problems, including the biaxial tension of a rubber patch and inflation of spherical or cylindrical balloons. The material models included the neo-Hookean model, Mooney-Rivlin model, Gent model, Arruda-Boyce model, Fung model, and Pucci-Saccomandi model. Analyses can be done using membrane equations with particular strain energy density functions. Among the typical strain energy density functions, Kearsley's bifurcation for the Treloar's patch occurs only with the Mooney-Rivlin model. The inflation equation is so generalized that a spherical balloon and tube balloons can be taken into account. From the analyses, the critical material parameters and limit points were identified for material models in terms of the non-dimensional pressure and inflation volume ratio. The bifurcation was then identified and found for each material model of a balloon. When the finite element method was used for the structural instability problems of rubber-like materials, some careful treatments required could be suggested. Overall, care must be taken not only with the analysis technique, but also in selecting constitutive models, particularly the instabilities.

This paper presents an analysis of the instability phenomenon on motorways, with the aim of arriving at the definition of a control strategy suitable for keeping the flow stable. By using some results of the motorway reliability theory, a relationship and some flow characteristics is obtained, which shows that the existence of a reliability threshold critical for flow stability. The macroscopic flow characteristics corresponding to this threshold are very different in different situations, so that this control of flow stability requires the analysis of speed and density microscopic process surveyed on a cross section of the motorway carriage ways to be controlled. A method is presented, based on integrated moving average(IMA) analysis in real time of these processes, by which it is possible to detect the approach of instability before its effects become manifest, and to single out the proper control strategy in different situations.

Electrochemistry of 1.0 mM bis(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(II) $(Cu(ph){_2}^{2+})$ in 100 mM NaCl solution including 27 mM $MgCl_2$ with and without sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is studied. In the presence of SDS, $E_{pa}$ and $E_{1/2}$ of $Cu(ph){_2}^{2+}$ by adding $Mg^{2+}$ shifts to a positive direction compared to the SDS free. The intersection of two lines on ${\Delta}E_p$ vs -log[SDS] plot is determined as a critical micelle concentration (CMC). When $Mg^{2+}$ is added, it seems that the double layer became more compact. And the formation of micelles is retarded.
