The transmit/receive(T/R) module is a key component in the active phased array system. The brick-type T/R module has been widely used and the miniaturization has been an important factor to get the flexibility of the system configuration. For the miniaturization, multi-function chips(MFC) having a common leg configuration are suitable to reduce the number of required MMICs and a high isolation between transmit and receive paths is necessary for the high gain T/R modules. In this work, we propose a bias timing scheme for the compact T/R module and show the optimum timing based on measurements, in order to improve the feed-back path loop problem and the consequent isolation problem of the common leg configuration. We have implemented high power(7 W/channel) and high T/R gain(35 dB transmit and 30 dB receive gains) within the half size($140{\times}80{\times}16mm^3$) of the conventional T/R modules.

Optimization of process parameters in polymer extrusion is an important task to reduce manufacturing cost. To determine the optimum values of the process parameters, it is essential to find their influence on the elongation of polymer breathable thin film. The significance of six important process parameters namely, extruder cylinder temperature, extruder speed, extruder dies temperature, cooling roll temperature, stretching ratio, stretching roll temperature on breathable film elongation of polymer extrusion was determined. Moreover, this paper presents the application of Taguchi method and analysis of variance(ANOVA) for maximization of the breathable film elongation influenced by extrusion parameters. The optimum parameter combination of extrusion process was obtained by using the analysis of signal-to-noise ratio. The conclusion revealed that stretching ratio were the most influential factor on the film elongation. The best results of film elongation were obtained at lower stretching ratio.

In this paper, we consider a constant modulus (CM) based blind adaptive receiver design for downlink multi-carrier code-division multiple access (MC-CDMA) systems employing simple space-time block coding (STBC). In the paper, filter weight vectors used for the detection of the transmitted symbols are partitioned into its subvectors and then, special relations among the optimal subvectors minimizing the CM metric are derived. Using the special relations, we present a modified CM metric and propose a new blind adaptive stochastic-gradient CM algorithm (SG-CMA) by minimizing the modified CM metric. The proposed blind adaptive SG-CMA has faster convergence rate than the conventional SG-CMA because the filter weight vectors of the proposed scheme are updated in the region of satisfying the derived special relations. Computer simulation results are given to verify the superiority of the proposed SG-CMA.

Concrete quality is mainly managed through the reliable prediction and control of compressive strength. Although related industries have established a relevant datasets based on the mixture proportions and compressive strength gain, whereas they have not been shared due to various reasons including technology leakage. Consequently, the costs and efforts for quality control have been wasted excessively. This study aimed to develop a web-based numerical model, which would present diverse optimal values including concrete strength prediction to the user, and to establish a sustainable database (DB) collection system by inducing the data entered by the user to be collected for the DB. The system handles the overall technology related to the concrete. Particularly, it predicts compressive strength at a mean accuracy of 89.2% by applying the artificial neural network method, modeled based on extensive DBs.

In this study, the quality properties according to the ratio of magnesia and potassium phosphate of the magnesia composite were evaluated to control the quality of the parent material in terms of materials when designing living concrete panels. The quality properties are 7 levels (30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55 and 60%) for W/B, 4 levels for P:M (1:0.5, 1:1.0, 1:2.0 and 1:3.0 vol. %) was prepared and evaluated. As a result of evaluating the flow of the magnesia complex, as W/B increased, the flow showed a tendency to increase, and the flow showed a tendency to decrease as the P:M increased. As a result of the evaluation of the compressive strength of the magnesia composite, the strength showed a tendency to decrease as P:M increased. In addition, it was confirmed that an optimal P:M ratio exists.

In this study, a trim tab on the stern hull of a small high-speed vessel of approximately 10 m length sailing at a Froude number of 1.0 was designed for energy efficiency. The running attitude and resistance performance of the bare hull and trim tab hull at several angles to the base line were analyzed for model and full scale ships using computational fluid dynamics, and compared to investigate the scale effect. The analysis results for the bare hull were quite similar, but a difference in the attitude control under same conditions of the trim tab was observed, resulting in the total resistance error. However, there was no significant difference in tendency of the variation in the resistance with the attitude. Thus, the optimum running attitude could be determined from the tendency despite the scale effect, but a full scale analysis is required to analyze the control of the attitude by the trim tab and flow characteristics near the full scale ship.

Permanent magnet synchronous motors can secure high power density and efficiency, but have problems in that the materials required for manufacturing are expensive and design is somewhat more difficult than induction motors. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an optimal motor that considers both efficiency and maintenance convenience and related control research. In addition, driving by a practical motor leads to a request to increase the highest efficiency in a narrow rated range, an increase in average efficiency in the entire electric driving range, and an increase in average output. Due to this movement, a reluctance motor that does not require a permanent magnet is being considered as an alternative. In this paper, in line with the issues of the times that require the development of future technology that can replace rare earth permanent magnet motors and the technological preemption of rare earth reduction motors and rare earth motors, switched reluctance motors without permanent magnet For motor, SRM), modeling through machine language (C language) and the characteristics of SRM accordingly are to be studied.

In this paper, we presented an optimized crack and flexural strength analysis of a glass-fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) rebar, used as reinforcements for in-site railway concrete slabs. The insulation performance of a GFRP rebar has the advantage of avoiding the loss of signal current in an audio frequency (AF) track circuit. A full-scale experiment, and three-dimensional finite element simulation results were compared to validate our approaches. Parametric numerical results revealed that the diameters and arrangements of the GFRP rebar had a significant effect on the flexural strength and crack control performances of the concrete track slabs. The results of this study could serve as a benchmark for future guidelines in designing more efficient, and economical concrete slabs using the GFRP rebar.

With the recent development of IoT and artificial intelligence technology, research and applications for optimization of real-world problems by collecting and analyzing data in real-time have increased in various fields such as manufacturing and smart city. Representatively, the digital twin platform that supports real-time synchronization in both directions with the virtual world digitized from the real world has been drawing attention. In this paper, we define a digital twin concept and propose a digital twin platform prototype that links real objects and predicted results from the virtual world in real-time by utilizing the oneM2M-based IoT platform. In addition, we implement an application that can predict accidents from object collisions in advance with the prototype. By performing predefined test cases, we present that the proposed digital twin platform could predict the crane's motion in advance, detect the collision risk, perform optimal controls, and that it can be applied in the real environment.
