This paper presents a design approach for passive vibration control to reduce vertical vibrations transmitted to the control unit during hovering flight of a quadrotor drone. Ground vibration test simulation based on finite element model was performed for forced vibration analysis of the quadrotor drone. First, modal analysis was performed to evaluate dynamic characteristics. Forced vibration response analysis was then performed to obtain the steady-state response within the operating frequency range under the hovering flight condition. Furthermore, to obtain the vibration reduction effect, a viscous damping tape was applied at positions that could induce vibrations transmitted to the control unit under the same conditions. Such a passive vibration control approach was investigated. Relevant vibration reduction effect was assessed with respect to the application of damping materials and the attachment position.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) suffer from not only a short lifetime due to limited energy but also an energy imbalance between nodes close to the sink and others. In order to fundamentally solve the short lifetime, recent studies utilize the environmental energy such as solar power. Additionally, WSNs using mobile sinks are being studied to address the energy imbalance problem. This paper proposes an improved CTP (Collection Tree Protocol) scheme which uses these two approaches simultaneously. Basically, it is based on a CTP scheme which is a very popular data collection strategy designed for the typical battery-based WSNs with a fixed sink. Therefore, we tailored it for solar-powered WSNs with a mobile sink. Performance verification confirms that our scheme reduces the number of blackout nodes significantly compared to the typical CTP, thus increases the amount of data collected by the sink.

A stochchastic analysis procedure of generating floor response spectra for proportionally damped linear systems subject to earthquake loading is presented. Theories of random vibration and mode acceleration method are used in the formulation of governing equations. The structure-oscillator interaction is not considered. It is assumed that the input motions and oscillator responses are stationary Gaussian processes with mean zero. The nonstationary characteristics of earthquake motion are incorporated in the peak factor which is based on Vanmarcke's theory. Floor response spectra for both resonance and non-resonance cases are calculated under the assumption that the peak factors for structure and oscillator are equal to that for ground response spectrum. The validity of this method is demonstrated by comparing the results obtained by proposed method with those by time history analyses. The results obtained by this method are conservative and accurate with tolerable precision. This method saves much computing time compared with time history analysis method.

A Study on the dynamic characteristics of a rotor driven by a tipjet system in hovering condition was carried out. The sectional modeling was performed for the tipjet blade in which the flow path was inserted, and the dynamic characteristics analysis was conducted by modeling the components of the proposed rotor system. The analysis was conducted with respect to the rotational speed and the collective pitch. As a result of the analysis, it was checked that the proposed tipjet rotor did not have aeroelastic instability within the designed operating range. The tipjet test equipment was constructed in order to verify the analysis approach. It was confirmed that the proposed rotor was driven normally by tipjet. The non-rotating eigenmode measurement test and the rotation test were performed, and the validity was proved by comparing the test results and the analysis results.

The present study has been conducted to propose an algorithm regarding real-time load estimation of a gas engine-driven heat pump. In the study, thermal load of an indoor unit is estimated in terms of air-side and refrigerant-side. The air-side estimation is based on a typical heat exchanger model and is found to be in good agreement with experimental data. When it comes to the refrigerant-side load, a pressure difference across a valve must be estimated. For the estimation, it is assumed to be proportional to a bigger pressure difference that is available either by measurement or by estimation. Relative good agreement between the air- and refrigerant-sides suggests that the assumption may be plausible for the load estimation. The summed flow rate of all of indoor units is in good agreement with the throughput of the compressor which are calculated from the manufacturer's software. Accordingly, estimated thermal loads are also in good agreement. The proposed algorithm may be further developed for improved control algorithm and fault diagnosis.

The picosecond time resolved fluorescence spectra of Hematoporphyrin Derivative (HPD) in both solutions and cancer cell are measured by a time correlated single photon counting system with a synchronously mode locked dye laser. Two exoponential decay components in the fluorescence spectra were observed. The slow decay(6.3 ㎱)and the fast one(350 ㎰)are attributed to be originated from monomers and dimers, respectively. The absorption and fluorescence measurements in steady state also showed the presence of a monomeric and dimeric forms of HPD molecules. The monomer lifetime in the cancer cell was measured to be longer than that in solution, which was expected from the blue shift and narrowing of the absorption spectra for HPD-treated in vitro. The relative amplitude of the fast component was found to be enhanced in cancer cell, strongly indicating the higher affinity of the dimer for the cancer cell.

The network based security techniques well-known until now have week points to be passive in attacks and susceptible to roundabout attacks so that the misuse detection based intrusion prevention system which enables positive correspondence to the attacks of inline mode are used widely. But because the Misuse detection based Intrusion prevention system is proportional to the detection rules, it causes excessive false alarm and is linked to wrong correspondence which prevents the regular network flow and is insufficient to detect transformed attacks, This study suggests an Intrusion prevention system which uses Support Vector machines(hereinafter referred to as SVM) as one of rule based Intrusion prevention system and Anomaly System in order to supplement these problems, When this compared with existing intrusion prevention system, show performance result that improve about 20% and could through intrusion prevention system that propose false positive minimize and know that can detect effectively about new variant attack.

As the portable electronic equipments are developed and popularized, the batteies are more important. To prolong life of the equipments, engineers demand to have batteries of high-power density and they are used to use Li-ion batteries popularly Li-ion batteries are better than conventional batteries, Ni-cd, about power density per volume and weight, but they have a fault that discharge voltage of them goes down. In order to maximize life of the Li-ion batterries, we have to use a converter which is suitable for the characteristic of Li-ion batteries. Therefore, capacitive idling SEPIC(Single Ended Primary Inductance Converter) that is derived from the SEPIC topology is proposed as a source of the Portable low-power applications. The converter has characteristics of buck-boost porformance. Besides, that makes it possible to increase the switching frequency by partial soft commutation of power switches through adding a diode and a switch. This paper is presented the characteristics, DC voltage conversion ratio, circuits of operation modes, of the converter and it is analized and implemented.

This research was to develop the cycling system of lower limbs for rehabilitation during cycle exercise in supine position. Also we analyzed the muscular activity of lower-limbs at various exercise conditions according to exercise mode, load, velocity. 42 healthy subjects(ages 20-60 years) were participated. We measured the muscular activities of right lower limb muscle in rectus femoris, biceps femoris, tibialis anterior, medial gastrocnemius, soleus. Results, medial gastrocnemius shows high value on load 10 stage than load 1 and 5 stage. And all muscular activity except medial gastrocnemius was decreased as increase of velocity. We have found that there is a difference of lower limbs activity depending on exercise mode and method. This study could be applied to reference data to develop cycle system of lower limbs for rehabilitation.
