Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-assisted relay has the advantages of ease of deployment, good communication channels, and mobility over traditional terrestrial relay, which greatly improves wireless connectivity. In this paper, we design a UAV-enabled relay network that can utilize radio frequency bands to harvest energy from sources and utilize terahertz (THz) bands to transmit information between secondary transmitters and receivers. Next, we solve the optimal position of the UAV that maximizes the relay channel capacity, and propose an algorithm to design two trajectories of UAV (a straight and an elliptical trajectory) using the derived solution. Numerical results show that the straight trajectory is better in terms of harvested energy and channel capacity.

This paper introduces a vision based autonomous mini mobile robot that is an approach to produce real autonomous vehicle. Previous autonomous vehicles are dependent on PC, because of complexity of designing hardware, difficulty of installation and abundant calculations. In this paper, we present an autonomous motile robot system that has abilities of accurate steering, quick movement in high speed and intelligent recognition as a stand-alone system using a mono camera. The proposed system has been implemented on mini track of which width is 25~30cm, and length is about 200cm. Test robot can run at average 32.9km/h speed on straight lane and average 22.3km/h speed on curved lane with 30~40m radius. This system provides a model of autonomous mobile robot adapted a lane recognition algorithm in odor to make real autonomous vehicle easily.

The diffusion phenomena of water, solid and reducing sugar in Chinese cabbage during salting (5$0^{\circ}C$, 25% salt solution) and desalting (5$0^{\circ}C$, distilled water) were investigated. Water loss and solid gain during salting were rapid in the first 6hrs and then almost leveled off. After 24hrs of salting, water loss and solid gain in 100g of initial wet Chinese cabbage were 33.35g and 6.26g respectively. Moisture content was changed from 94.29% to 83.11% during 24hrs of salting. The reducing sugar concentration was also changed from 29.2 mg/$m\ell$ to 6.5mg/$m\ell$, which was linearized as a function of the square root of salting time and showing that Y=30.1841-5.0269√t. After 24hrs salting, water gain and solid loss during desalting were rapid in the first 4hrs and then increased linearly. After 12hrs of desalting, the water gain and solid loss in 100g of initial wet Chinese cabbage were 20.82g and 9.14g respectively. The amount of solid loss after 12hrs desalting was higher than that of solid gain after 24hrs salting due to the diffusion of solute presented initially in the Chinese cabbage during salting and desalting. The concentration of salt in Chinese cabbage after 12hrs desalting was 2.98% which was a suitable salt concentration for the preparation of Kimchi. At this time, the concentration of reducing sugar was only 1.6mg/$m\ell$. The linear regression equation of reducing sugar concentration during desalting was Y=6.7854-1.5992√t.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 12-week complex training program on foot pressure patterns of the elderly women. The training program consisted of aerobic exercise and muscular training for 12 weeks. Two stages of walking were given to the participants before and after treatment: (a) straight walking; and (b) turn at $45^{\circ}$ while walking. Data related to foot-pressure distribution(FPD) while walking were collected from each stage and analyzed. Results indicated that in both stage of walking, the mean of the foot pressure(FP) was significantly reduced after the participation in the program. Results also revealed that in all stages, the patterns of the FPD and the center of pressure(COP) were widely lower and more stable. Based on the results of this study, it was concluded that participating in a 12-week complex program bas impact on the gait patterns of the elderly women, reducing the foot pressure on their shoes.

Two-dimensional finite element hydrodynamic models for long wave simulation usually adopt fixed land boundary. However moving boundary treatment is strongly required in the simulation of tidal flats for west and south coast of Korea. In this study very efficient and realistic moving boundary treatment is applied by considering incident long wave surface slope. Developed STEP-CM (Superior Two-step Explicit Program for Coastal Modeling) ,shows numerically stable results in comparative study for idealized one-dimensional channel. Real application of the model is done for Chonsu Bay where tidal flats are distributed along the coast. Nonlinear tidal current and tidal flat effects are easily simulated in STEP-CM and resulting circulations are detected around headland of Wonsan Island.

Liquid Chromatographic behavior of Pd(II) in Isonitrosoethylacetoacetate lmine, $Pd(IEAA-NR)_2$ (R=H, $CH_3$, $C_2H_5$, $n-C_3H_7$, $C_6H_5-CH_2$, $n-C_4H_9$) chelates were investigated by reversed-phase HPLC on Micropak MCH-5 column using methanol/water as mobile phase. The optimum conditions for the separation of $Pd(IEAA-NR)_2$ chelates were examined with respect to the effect of the flow rate, sample solvent, mobile phase strength and column temperature. It wass found that metal chelates were properly eluted in an acceptable range of capacity factor value($0{\leq}log\;k^{\prime}{\leq}1$). The dependence of the logarithm of capacity factor(k') on the volume fraction of water in the binary mobile phase was examined. Also, the dependence of k' on the liquid-liquid extration distribution ratio($D_c$) in methanol-water/n-alkane extration system was investigated. Both kinds of dependence are linear, which susggests that the retention of the electroneutral metal chelate is largely due to the solvophobic effect. Standard adsorption enthalpy changes (${\Delta}H^{\circ}$) and standard adsorption entropy changes (${\Delta}S^{\circ}$) of Pd(II) Isonitrosoethylacetoacetate imine chelates on Micropak MCH-5 column were calculated by measuring capacity factor with changing temperature of the column.

단련용 다결정 Ni기 초내열합금은 우수한 가공성, 내산화성, 고온특성 등으로 가스터빈 연소기, 디스크, 증기발생기 전열관 등 발전용 고온부품 소재에 널리 적용되고 있다. 최근 발전설비의 고효율화를 꾀하기 위해 작동 온도를 현격히 증가시키는 기술방향으로 발전하고 있고, 소재측면에서는 기존의 초내열합금 대비 고기능성을 확보할 수 있는 차세대 Ni기 초내열합금 개발이 유럽, 미국, 일본, 중국 등을 중심으로 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 소재의 고온강도 (온도수용성)를 향상시키기 위해서는 통상 규칙격자 금속간화합물인 $Ni_3(Al,Ti)-{\gamma}'$상의 분율을 증가시킬 수 있지만, ${\gamma}'$상분율이 증가할 경우 용접 및 후열처리 동안 용접열영향부 (HAZ)에서 액화균열이 발생할 가능성이 높아진다. 결정립계를 따라 발생하는 HAZ 액화균열은 입계특성에 의해 크게 영향을 받을 것으로 판단된다. 한편, 본 연구자들은 최근 입계 serration 현상을 단련용 합금에 도입시키는 특별한 열처리를 이론적 접근법을 통해 개발하였다. 형성된 파형입계는 결정학적인 관점에서 조밀 {111} 입계면을 갖도록 분해 (dissociation)되어 낮은 계면에너지를 갖게 됨을 확인하였으며, 입계형상 변화뿐만 아니라 탄화물 특성변화까지 유도하여 크리프 수명을 기존대비 약 40% 정도 향상시킴을 확인하였다. 이러한 직선형 입계 대비 'special boundary'로 간주되는 파형입계가 도입될 경우, HAZ 결정립크기 변화 및 액화거동에 미치는 영향을 고찰하고, 아울러 입계특성 제어가 용접성/용접부 품질 향상에 기여할 수 있는 가능성도 토의하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 재현 HAZ 열사이클 시험을 통해 미세구조를 정량적으로 비교하였다. 상대적으로 입계구조가 안정된 파형입계의 이동속도가 高계면 에너지를 갖는 직선형 입계보다 느려 HAZ 결정립 성장이 효과적으로 억제됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 입계 액화거동을 살펴보면, 두 시편 모두 $M_{23}C_6$, MC 등 입계탄화물 계면이 빠른 승온중 액화반응 (constitutional liquation)에 의해 입계가 액화되었으며, 이후 급냉에 의해 입계에 액상막이 존재한 흔적이 발견되었다. 최고온도별로 입계액화 폭/비율을 정량적으로 비교한 결과, 파형입계가 직선입계 대비 대체로 낮음을 확인할 수 있었으며, 때때로 액화되지 않고 잔존하는 입계 탄화물이 관찰되었다. 재현 HAZ 미세조직을 통해 Hot ductility 시험 결과를 유추하자면, 파형입계가 직선입계 보다 좁은 취성온도영역 (Brittle Temperature Range)을 나타낼 것으로 예상되어, 입계특성제어에 의해 Ni기 초내열합금의 용접성을 향상 가능성을 확인하였다.

강변여과는 지표수와 지하수가 각기 갖는 장점과 제약점을 상호 보완하여 수질이 양호한 상수원수를 대량 확보하기 위한 실제적 대안이다. 자연적인 여과작용에 의해 수질이 개선되는 효과가 있어 경제적이고 안정적으로 확보할 수 있지만, 장기간 취수는 지하수위의 저하를 가져 올 수 있으므로 유역의 수문분석을 통한 기저유출량 산정에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 대상지역으로는 현재 강변여과를 개발중인 창원시 대산정수장 취수장 지역이며, 대상지역의 기저유출량을 산정하기 위해 대상지역 상류에 위치한 낙동강 본포교의 낙동강 유량을 기초로 기저유출량을 산정하여 지하수 함양율을 평가하였다. 수문곡선 분리는 여러 방법 중 다른 방법보다 상대적으로 간편하고 실무에서 많이 사용되는 방법인 수평직선분리법을 사용하여 적정 취수 가능량을 산정하기 위한 최소 기저유출량을 산정하고자 한다. 이에 따라, 보유 자료 중 연 평균 최저 유출량을 보인 2008년 가을 갈수기의 시작(2008년 10월)부터 2009년 가을 갈수기의 시작(2009년 10월)까지의 자료를 분석했다. 본포교 유량 자료는 8일부터 10일 간격으로 측정되고 있기 때문에 결측치는 최인접 두 지점 사이의 선형보간법으로 보완했다. 다소 많은 양의 결측치에 대한 보정과 해당 유역의 연간 유출 특성을 파악하기 위해서 이동평균(moving average)을 적용했으며, 적용 결과 관측 주기에 해당하는 10일 이동평균 유출수문곡선이 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 10일 이동평균에 의한 유출수문곡선에 의하면 상승부의 기점은 2009년 6월 12일로 나타났으며 유출량은 47.87cms로 나타났다. 따라서 총 기저유출량은 상승부 기점의 유출량으로 111일 동안 발생하는 것을 알 수 있었으며 그 총량은 약 45,900만$m^3$으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서의 결과 본포교를 유역출구로 하는 이 유역에는 임의 유출이 생기는 호우사상 시, 기저유출량은 총 유출량의 6.38%를 최소한 기대할 수 있음을 알 수 있다.

Chromatographic retention mechanism of seven benzoic acids in RPLC were investigated. Inorganic salt is pertinent for the measurement of dead time in benzoic acid. Logarthims of capacity factor (log k') and Hildebrand solubility parameter (${\delta}$) showed proportional relationship which imply the hydrophobic effect of the retention mechanism in RPLC. Enthalpies of solute transfer showed inverse proportion to temperature and organic modifier ratio of the mobile phase. It was found that the S value showed positive slope in plot of log k' vs. volume fraction of water in mobile phase. Free energy change increases with increasing organic volume fraction. The hydrophobicity index, ${\varphi}_0$(organic volume fraction) is inversely proportional to column temperature.
