We investigated the optimal etching conditions and properties of the surface change due to molten KOH/NaOH chemical wet etching using an AlN wafer which has been put to practical use in the present study. Results were observed using a scanning electron microscope after 5 minutes etching at $350^{\circ}C$, was found to have a surface form of the respective other Al-face, the N-face. In particular, etch-pit in the form of a hexagon, which is observed in the Al-face appeared, It was calculated at $2{\times}10^6/cm^2{\sim}10^{10}/cm^2$ dislocation density. In the case of N-face, lattice defects in the form of the hexagonal pyramids is formed. It was discovered that in order to observe the orientation of the wafer, which corresponds to the C-axis direction of the resulting hexagonal AlN which was analyzed using XRD (0002) and is a state of being oriented in the (0004) plane. The Radius of curvature of AlN wafer was 1.6~17 m measured by DC-XRD rocking curve position.

Recently, electronic devices with bendable electronic devices based on flexible substrates are being sold, and therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibility of flexible substrates of conductive transparent tapes. As a transparent electrode, carbon nanotube (CNT) was formed by the coating method developed by the research team, and samples coated up to 5 times were fabricated. The surface resistance and transmittance of the substrate were measured, and both resistance and transmittance decreased as the number of CNT coatings increased. After the tape was detached from the glass, the surface resistance slightly increased in all samples, and the transmittance increased by about 10% in all measured wavelength ranges because the glass was removed. Next, the tape coated with CNT twice was used to a bending test 20,000 times under the condition of a radius of curvature of 2 mm. The electrical and optical properties before and after bending did not change, which means that there was no change in CNT properties due to bending.

In this paper, the frost heaving and thawing characteristics of flexible pavement structure were evaluated in the large scale freezer which have a specification of temperature range $-20^{\circ}C{\sim}10^{\circ}C$ and $3.2m(L){\times}3.2m(B){\times}2.4m(H)$ in size. The insulated steel box with the size of $0.9m(L){\times}0.9m(B){\times}0.9m(H)$ was used to simulate actual pavement road structure. The variation of temperature, frost heave amount and frost heave pressure were measured through the instrument of TDS-602 data logger. LFWD (light falling weight deflectometer) was used to determine the change of deflection due to the frost heaving and thawing. Furthermore, the influence of aggregate layer to the freezing of the subgrade soil was studied to verify the function and effectiveness of the anti-freezing layer.

For the far field radiation pattern of a microstrip array antenna which is conformed to a cylindrical surface and forms an arc array, an approximate analysis method using FOURIER TRANSFORM is presented. In this method, the conformal array antenna is projected on the effective aperture plane and assumed to be an aperiodic array with nonlinear phase tilt. The effective aperture plane includes four end-points of each arc on the cylindrical surface. When the effective aperture ratio which is normalized to the planar type is from 1.0 to 0.9, it is confirmed that this approximate method is valid. To the array on the effective aperture plane, it is assumed that the phase tilt is due to the distance between aperture plne and curvature surface. Specially, when the radius of arc is more than 5 times to its length, the FOURIER TRANSFORM METHOD could be used with only varying scale factors. The results of calculating by approximate method are good agreement with the results of COORDINATE TRANSFORM METHOD and experimentally measured value in the range of -40dB. And, the difference of half power angle is less than 5 degrees when the effective aperture ratio moer than 0.9.

This study proposed piezoelectric ceramic bender actuators for application to small walking robots. As the space where human access has recently become increasingly restricted (e.g., highly concentrated radioactive storage areas, viral contaminated areas, terrorist zones, etc.), the scope of using robots is becoming more diverse, and many actions that were possible only in the past have been attempted to be replaced by small robots. This robotic concept has the advantage of being simple in structure, making it compact and producing a large size work force. The dynamic modeling, using finite element analysis, maximized the robot's mobility performance by optimizing the shape of the actuator, and the results were verified through fabrication and experimentation. The actuator moved at a maximum speed of 236 mm/s under no load conditions, and it could move at a speed of 156 mm/s under load conditions of 5g. The proposed actuator has the advantage of modular additions depending on the mission and required performance, which ensured that they are competitive against similar drive sources previously created.

In this paper, the X-band reconfigurable frequency selective surface having flexible geometry was proposed. The proposed RFSS is composed of patterns of cross-shaped loop with inductive stub, which can control the frequency response for C-Band and X-band by ON/OFF state of PIN diode. To minimize the parasitic effect and to obtain the high level of isolation between the unit cell of FSS and the bias circuit, we designed the grid type bias line on bottom layer through via hole. The measured transmission characteristics show good agreement with the simulation results and good stability of frequency response for different incident angles and curvatures of surface.

The goal of this paper is to investigate the effects of out-of-plane deposition angle on product characteristics of a UV photo-curing process. Specimens are manufactured from a commercialized UV photo-curing machine, the NOBEL V1.0. The influence of the out-of-plane deposition angle of the specimen on surface characteristics, including morphology of the sloped surface, pick-to-pick distance of convex region, and roughness of the sloped surface, is examined via the observation of the sloped surface. In addition, the influence of the radius of curvature of the specimen on the surface roughness of the sloped surface is evaluated. The effects of the out-of-plane deposition angle on impact strength of specimens are investigated via Izod impact experiments. Finally, we discuss the influence of the out-of-plane deposition angle on failure characteristics of specimens for impact loads.

The measuring Method by stylus, which measures surface roughness, has been widely used since G. Schmaltz developed the first equipment of that type. Withe the resent development of the measuring method by stylus, surface foughness testing instruments of the very high magnification ratio, hundreds of thousands, are manu- factured. However, as the techniques of the high precision roughness measurement are being required, the response problems due to the tip shapes and the plastic deformations of measured surface of mild material are to be serious factors. In this study, diamond stylus of tip radius $0.5\mu\textrm{m}$, $2\mu\textrm{m}$, $5\mu\textrm{m}$ and $10\mu\textrm{m}$ were used under the measuring force of 0.01gf, 0.02gf, 0.07gf, 0.4gf and 1.6gf, and from the experimental data, maximum measured value devrements between $2\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus and $5\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus, $2\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus and $10\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus are 22% and 31%, respectively when the measured value of $2\mu\textrm{mR}$ stylus goes to $0.01\mu\textrm{m Ra}$, $\lambda$ c2.5mm. And it is shown that plastic deformations on the plastic deformations on the measured surface are proportional to W/R(W;measured force, R;stylus tip radius).

In image guided surgery, a patient registration process is a critical process for the successful operation, which is required to use pre-operative images such as CT and MRI during operation. Though several patient registration methods have been studied, we concentrate on one method that utilizes 3D surface measurement data in this paper. First, a hand-held 3D surface measurement device measures the surface of the patient, and secondly this data is matched with CT or MRI data using optimization algorithms. However, generally used ICP algorithm is very slow without a proper initial location and also suffers from local minimum problem. Usually, this problem is solved by manually providing the proper initial location before performing ICP. But, it has a disadvantage that an experience user has to perform the method and also takes a long time. In this paper, we propose a method that can accurately find the proper initial location automatically. The proposed method finds the proper initial location for ICP by converting 3D data to 2D curvature images and performing image matching. Curvature features are robust to the rotation, translation, and even some deformation. Also, the proposed method is faster than traditional methods because it performs 2D image matching instead of 3D point cloud matching.

Hull form can be described numerically by two approaches, one is to describe a hull form with a set of curves("curve approach"), and the other is to describe it with surfaces directly("surface approach"). This paper describes the numerical definition scheme of hull form using curve approach method which defines the hull form by a set of curves consisting of 2-dimensional transverse section curves and 3-dimensional longitudinal curves. A set of curves in the hull form definition scheme is described by the modified cubic spline which modified the general parametric cubic spline in order to ensure a very smooth curvature distribution within the curve segment even though a curve segment has large tangent angle at its end points. Illustrative examples are given showing the application of the method to represent the hull form of SWATH ship and oceanographic research vessel. Also, examples for hull form transformation are shown by using this method connected with transformation technique.
