Level Gauge using FMCW Radar is widely used and researched in many areas because of contactless, long range and flexibility. However FMCW level gauge requires wideband RF bandwidth for archiving high resolution of cm grade. In this paper we propose a new tx sawtooth waveform and processing algorithm with narrowband RF for wideband performance. The proposed method is based on STFT(Short-time fourier transform) and single sinusoidal carrier estimation method. From some experiments, we show that the resolution is improved upto 8 times with 300MHz FMCW radar.

본 연구의 목적은 천해 환경에서의 파형이 점착성 유사의 이동량에 미치는 영향을 살펴보는 것이다. 이를 위하여 이상적인 진동흐름(Oscillatory Flow)을 가정하고 점착성 유사의 이동에 적합한 1DV 모형을 적용하였다. 이상적인 진동흐름을 가정할 때는 다양한 파형을 고려하기 위해 왜곡되거나 비대칭적인 조건을 적용하였다. 크기와 밀도가 변화하는 점착성 유사의 응집현상을 고려하기 위해 기존에 개발된 응집현상 모형을 1DV 모형에 결합하였다. 2차 스토크스파 조건을 모사하기 위해 왜곡된 진동흐름, 톱니파를 모사하기 위해 비대칭 진동흐름 조건을 선택하였다. 수치모의 결과, 왜곡된 진동흐름 조건에서의 점착성 유사 이동량은 흐름의 왜곡도에 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 가는 비점착성 유상의 경우는 왜곡도와 주목할 만한 관계를 보이지 않았다. 비대칭 진동흐름의 경우는 점착성 유사와 비점착성 유사가 서로 다른 방향을 나타내었다. 앞쪽으로 기운 비대칭 진동흐름 조건에서 점착성 유사의 이동량이 뒤쪽 방향으로 발생하는 반면 비점착성 유사는 흐름이 기운 방향과 동일한 방향으로 유사량을 나타내었다. 이러한 현상의 원인으로는 Phase-lag 효과가 고려되었다. 유사의 침강속도와 농도 프로파일의 변화, 물의 유동 조건 등은 복합적인 상호작용을 통해 Phase-lag 효과를 강화시키고 점착성 유사와 비점착성 유사의 이동량이 서로 다른 특성을 나타내게 하는 것으로 고려된다.

Six smittinid species were identified from Korean waters. Two of which were previously recorded in the Korean bryozoan fauna are reviewed. Parasmittina raigii (Audouin, 1826) reported from Gwabutan, Jeju Island is re-examined and reidentified as Parasmittina serrula Soule and Soule, 1973, which is new to the Korean fauna. Smittoidea reticulato (MacGillivray, 1847) is reported as species which doesn't occur in the Pacific Ocean Accordingly, Smittoidea reticulata should be deleted from the Korean bryozoan fauna and the Korean specimen identified as Smittoidea reticulata is synonymous with Smittoidea pacifica Soule and Soule, 1973. Fourteen smittinid bryozoans from Korea are thus recorded so far.

플라즈마 연구 및 응용에서 플라즈마를 구성하는 이온에 대한 정보를 얻는 것은 중요하다. 특히 플라즈마 진단, 박막 증착, 플라즈마 코팅, 플라즈마 이온주입 등과 같은 플라즈마 프로세싱에서 이온들의 종류 구성비율 및 분포는 매우 중요하다. 질량분석기는 대개 큰 규모로 복잡하고 값비싼 경향이 있다. 플라즈마 교란을 최소화하면서 충분한 질량분해능을 갖고 국소적으로 이온들을 분석할 수 있는 간단하고 작은 규모의 값싼 질량분석기가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마 내에 존재하는 이온을 분석하기 위하여 간단하고 작은 규모의 값싼 프라즈마 이온 질량분석기를 설계, 제작하였다. 이온 질량분석기는 ion extraction part, double focusing sector magnet, ion collector로 구성되어 있다. 플라즈마에 잠기는 ion extraction part의 외부 전극에 Al2O3를 코팅하여 플라즈마 교란을 최소화하였다. 이온들의 공간적 분포를 측정하기 쉽게 하기 위하여 ion extraction part를 이동하여도 질량여과기를 통과한 후에 접속되는 초점의 위치가 Faraday ion collector 에 고정되도록 ion optical system을 설계하였다. Extracting electrode에 의하여 가속된 이온들이 sector magnet에 들어갈 때 평행이 되게 하기 위하여 여러 개의 미세구조를 갖는 Mo grids를 사용하고 immersion lens를 넣어서 이온 광학 시스템을 구성하였다. extraction electrode와 sector magnet 사이에 보조 electrode를 하나 더 넣어서 extracting electrode와 보조 electrode 사이에 immersion lens를 만들었다. 질량여과기로는 permanent magnet sector와 time-varying electrical field를 결합하여 사용하였다. Extracting electrode에 1kV 정도의 전압을 인가하여 이온들을 가속시키고 sector magnet에 톱니파 형태의 전압을 인가하여 mass spectrum을 얻었다. 이온 질량분석기를 플라즈마 장치에 적용하여 질량분해능 등의 특성을 연구하였다. Hot cathode discharge와 inductively coupled RF discharge에서 발생된 질소 플라즈마를 구성하는 이온들의 종류와 그 구성비율을 연구하였다.

By laying its drum horizontally, front-loaded washing machine mostly used in Europe that uses the head of the water to launder was appropriate for washing only small amount of laundry. However, the demands of customers are requiring front-loaded washing machine to handle big capacity laundry as well, and have faster rotation speed to increase drying ability. To meet such demands, more stress from bending and twisting are complexly loaded onto the shaft supporting the horizontal drum, causing problems in fracture strength and fatigue life. Shafting system is mainly divided into flange and shaft. Flange is located between the drum and shaft, transferring power from the shaft to drum, and acting as a supporter of the back of the drum. Shaft is connected from the flange to insert production, transferring power from the motor to drum, and mainly acting as stiffness against the horizontal weight of the shafting system. In this paper, strength analysis and experiment were executed on both the shaft and flange of front-loaded washing machine to suggest the design improvement of shafting system for big capacity, high-rotation drying. Also, verification of this evaluation was executed on fracture strength and fatigue life for studied shaft system.

In this paper, a lens actuator for mobile devices is proposed using stack type piezoelectric materials. In general, the deformation of PZT actuators is not enough for lens motion when the allowed voltage is applied. The small stroke problem can be solved by accumulating a lot of small displacements in high frequency. In this paper, a new inch-worm type model for focusing actuator is suggested based on the interaction of inertial and frictional forces. Theoretical analysis and simulation using ANSYS are performed to verify the feasibility of the inch-worm PZT actuator model. Various types of clamps are considered to determine the effect of frictional force on the motion, and appropriate clamp-actuator models are proposed. The proposed models are experimentally verified and the experimental results show high correspondence with theoretical and simulated values. The inch-worm type focusing actuator enable a large stroke with 7.79 mm/sec with 10kHz and 10V.

The optical characteristics and power transfers between guiding channels of blazed grating-assisted directional coupler (B-GADC) are evaluated in detail by using novel and rigorous modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) based on eigenvalue problem. To evaluate the coupling efficiency of B-GADC, the dispersion curves as a function of the grating period and wavelength are analyzed numerically for quasi-TE and quasi-TM modes. Furthermore, symmetric, sawtooth and asymmetric grating profiles are considered to know the effect of blazing characteristics on power transfer of GADC. The numerical results show that the grating period for minimum-gap condition to obtain maximum power transfer decreases gradually as the blazed structure changes from symmetric to asymmetric profile. On the other hand, the coupling length increases reversely.

Background: The serratus anterior and upper trapezius muscles act synergistically to allow for an appropriate scapulothoracic rhythm. However, a decrease in serratus anterior activation causes the upper trapezius to become overactivated, resulting in dysfunction. This study compared serratus anterior and upper trapezius muscle activity according to sling angle and compared serratus anterior strength between healthy adults and patients with shoulder instability. Methods: Twenty participants (10 healthy adults and 10 patients with shoulder instability) were included in this study. The participants had their arms extended at sling angles of 30°, 60°, and 90° in reach forward with shoulder flexion using goniometer. Serratus anterior strength was measured three times while the participants were supine. The outcome measures were surface electromyography amplitude of the upper trapezius and serratus anterior and serratus anterior strength. Results: The Wilcoxon signed-rank test indicated that the upper trapezius was significantly different between healthy group and shoulder instability group at a sling angle of 60°, and both the upper trapezius and serratus anterior exhibited significant differences at 90°. Moreover, a significant difference was noted in the muscle strength of the serratus anterior. Conclusion: Our results provide novel and promising clinical evidence that patients with shoulder instability have decreased serratus anterior activation and upper trapezius overactivation, resulting in muscle imbalance. In addition, there was a significant difference between the healthy group and shoulder instability group in the serratus anterior muscle strength

Sargassum serratifolium is a rich source of antioxidant meroterpenoids. The optimal extraction temperature and time for obtaining maximal antioxidant yield, antioxidant activity, and phenolic content from Sargassum serratifolium were determined using response surface methodology (RSM). The ranges of the independent variables for extraction temperature and time were 30-70℃ and 12-36 h, respectively. With increasing temperature and time, the yield increased significantly, while DPPH (2,2-dipheny-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical-scavenging activity and total phenolic content decreased significantly. The optimal extraction temperature and time obtained by RSM were 54℃ and 7 h, respectively, providing a yield of 8.2%, DPPH radical-scavenging activity of 60%, and total phenolic content of 163 mg GAE/g. The findings of this study provide useful information for the development of Sargassum serratifolium extraction processes for the food and cosmetic industries.
