This paper proposes a reduced order method which reduces passband error by changing controllability and observability gramian based on weighted functions in the linear time invariant system. In the case that the 4-order model is the reduced to 3-order model in the low-pass filter, the QEI in the proposed method is improved to 6.15724 compared to 10.16464 in the balanced realization method and the sensitivity is improved to 5.45962 compared to 7.790568. The frequency property curves show that the proposed method is superior to the balanced realization method.

In this paper, the properties of Mo as PMOS gate electrodes were studied. The work-function of Mo extracted from C-V characteristic curves was appropriate for PMOS. To identify the electrical and chemical stability of Mo metal gate, the changes of work-function and EOT(Effective Oxide Thickness) values were investigated after 600, 700, 800 and 90$0^{\circ}C$ RTA(Rapid Thermal Annealing). Also it was found that Mo metal gate was stable up to 90$0^{\circ}C$ with underlying SiO$_2$through X-ray diffraction measurement. Sheet resistances of Mo metal gate obtained from 4-point probe were less than 10$\Omega$/$\square$ that was much lower than those of polysilicon.

This study presents the assessment of pseudostatic approach for obtaining the internal response of Single Column/Shaft subjected to earthquake loading. In numerical procedure, various lateral load transfer characteristics (p-y curve and Bi-linear curve) were used to model the nonlinear behavior of soil reactions including soil-pile interaction. The analysis using nonlinear soil model could estimate the seismic performance of soil-pile system, despite its relative simplicity. It was found that lateral behavior of single column/shaft obtained from the response displacement method was larger than those by seismic intensity method. To investigate the effects of soil-pile rigidity and pile head condition on the internal pile response, parametric studies were carried out for various soil models. The results from numerical analysis showed that lateral deflection was decreased with fixed condition of pile head and decreasing the soil-pile rigidity. The seismic analysis using Bi-linear model of JRA could reasonably predict the lateral behavior of Single Column/Shaft.

The observed data of enough period need for design of hydrological works. But, most hydrological data aren't enough. Therefore in this paper, hourly precipitation generated by nonhomogeneous Markov chain model using variable Kernel density function. First, the Kernel estimator is used to estimate the transition probabilities. Second, wet hours are decided by transition probabilities and random numbers. Third, the amount of precipitation of each hours is calculated by the Kernel density function that estimated from observed data. At the results, observed precipitation data and generated precipitation data have similar statistic. Also, rainfall mass curve is derived by calculated transition probabilities for generation of hourly precipitation.

Deformational characteristics of subgrade soils are important properties in the mechanistic analysis and design of pavement system. In this study, to evaluate the effect of specimen construction methods on deformational characteristics of subgrade soils in Korea, resonant column tests were performed for specimens constructed by various methods. Specimen construction method affected to the modulus value but the variation in the normalized modulus reduction curve was almost identical. The effects of specimen construction method on modulus are decreased with increasing confining pressure. The average maximum variation in the modulus value with different specimen construction methods was estimated as 16.8%. The differences in the modulus value of the specimens with same water content and dry density conditions that made by gyratory compaction and impact compaction were very small within 5.2%. The impact compaction method was proposed as a specimen construction method for determining the design input parameter testing considering that impact compaction method is much simpler and require less expensive specimen construction equipment and setup than gyratory compaction method.

The behavior of horizontally curved I-girder bridges is complex because the flexural and torsional behavior of curved girders are coupled due to their initial curvature. Also, the behavior is affected by cross beams. To investigate the behavior of horizontally curved I-girder bridges, it is necessary to consider curved girders with cross beams. In order to perform free vibration analyses of horizontally curved I-girder bridges, a finite element formulation is presented here and a finite element analysis program is developed. The formulation that is presented here consists of curved and straight beam elements, including the warping degree of freedom. Based on the theory of thin-walled curved beams, the shape functions of the curved beam elements are derived from homogeneous solutions of the static equilibrium equations. Third-order hermits polynomials are used to form the shape functions of the straight beam elements. In the finite element analysis program, global stiffness and mass matrix are composed, based on the Cartesian coordinate system. The Gupta method is used to efficiently solve the eigenvalue problem. Comparing the results of several examples here with those of previous studies, the formulation presented is verified. The validity of the program developed is shown by comparing results with those analyzed by the shell element.

Red pine(Pinus densiflora) square timbers with 14.0 cm and 16.5 cm of face size and 24 m long were dried in a vacuum-press kiln and in a radio-frequency/vacuum(RF/V) kiln to compare drying rate, moisture content(MC) distribution and specific energy. RF/V drying rate was higher than vacuum-press drying rate. The effect of size of cross section on the RF/V drying rates were more pronounced than those of vacuum-press drying. The longitudinal- and the transverse MC distribution of dried square timber showed convex profile for the vacuum-press drying and concave profile for the RF/V drying. Moisture gradient of width direction was similar to the thickness direction in vacuum-press dried square timber and was more slight than that of the thickness direction in the RF/V dried large square timber. The specific energy consumption curve increased as MC decreased. Specific energy(kWh/kg of water evaporated) of the vacuum-press process required more than that of the RF/V process.

Two types of white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with different phosphor structures were fabricated and compared in terms of their optical characteristics. Their spectroscopic properties were analyzed as a function of temperature, from room temperature to $80^{\circ}C$. The temperature dependence of the luminance and the color coordinates showed that the decrease in luminance and change in the color coordinates of the remote-phosphor type LED were much smaller compared to the conventional white LED. These improvements were attributed to the decrease in phosphor temperature, due to the distance between the LED chip and the phosphor layer, as well as to the reduced absorption by the LED chip of the light emitted from the phosphor layer.

지진에 대한 건축물의 확률적 성능평가에 대해서는 지진하중에 대한 건축물의 손상확률 또는 파괴확률을 나타내는 지진취약도 함수를 작성하여 대상 건축물에 대한 지진위험도를 평가하는 방법을 이용하고 있으며 이에 대한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지진하중과 구조물 재료특성의 불확실성을 고려하고 대상 건축물의 지진취약도 해석을 통하여 비내력벽의 유무에 따른 건축물의 지진거동 및 내진성능을 평가하였다. 비내력벽을 보편화된 모형화 방법인 등가의 대각 압축 스트럿으로 고려하여 비내력벽의 유무에 따른 저층 철근콘크리트 건축물을 모형화하였으며 지진하중의 강도는 유효최대지반가속도를 이용하여 각 건축물에 대하여 지진취약도를 작성하였다. 취약도해석 결과로 연약층을 가지고 있는 건축물의 경우는 손상확률이 골조만 있는 경우보다 크며 동일한 해석모델의 경우에도 해석방법에 따라서 취약도 곡선의 형태가 다름을 알 수 있었다.

지하수함양은 크게 강우 중에 침투되는 자연함양, 하천 또는 저수지에서 침투되는 지표수 함양, 인위적으로 물을 지하로 침투시키는 인공함양 등이 있는데, 본 연구에서는 강우에 의해 지하로 침투되는 자연함양율을 구하기 위하여 다음 두 가지 방법을 이용하여 지하수함양율을 산출하고자 하였다. 첫 번째 누적강수량과 지하수수위곡선을 이용하는 방법(문상기, 우남칠, 2001)은 강우기간 중 누적강수량을 고려하여 지하수위변화로부터 지하수함양율을 추정하고, 두 번째 무강우기간 동안의 지하수위감수곡선을 이용하는 방법(최병수, 안중기, 1998)은 토양특성, 증발산을 배재한 상태에서 무강우기간의 지하수위감쇠곡선으로부터 함양량을 추정한다. 즉 같은 지역에서 선행강우기간 중 지하수침투가 시작되는 강우량과 어떤 시점에서의 강우기간 중 지하수침투가 시작되는 강우량의 차이가 토양함수조건에 따라 다를 수 있으나 평균개념으로 볼 때 그 차이가 무시될 수 있다고 가정하여 토양특성을 배재하고, 지하수수위가 지표에서 1.0~l.5m이상 되면 지하수로부터의 증발산은 무시될 수 있다고 가정하고 있다. 연구지역은 충청북도 청원군 북일면과 북이면에 위치하며, 지하수위 장기관측은 암반관정과 충적관정을 두 지점에 설치하여 총 4개의 관측정에서 지하수위자동측정기 Orphimedes (기포식수위계, OTT Hydrometrie사 제작)로 1시간 간격으로 지하수위변화를 기록하였다(그림1, 그림2). 강우량은 현장에서 자기우량계(모델명 : HGR-200, SEBA Hydrometrie사 제작)를 설치하여 직접 측정하였고, 자료가 유실된 기간은 청주기상대 자료로 보완하였다. 그러나 본 연구지역은 면적이 32.35$\textrm{km}^2$이고 1998년까지 개발된 기설관정의 개수가 무려 1,547여공으로 단위면적당 관정수는 48여공/$\textrm{km}^2$로 다른 지역에 비해 관정이 밀집되어 있어 지하수연간사용량을 무시할 수 없다. 그림2에서 보는 바와 같이 주변관정들의 양수로 인하여 관측정에서의 지하수위변화가 영향을 받는 것을 알 수 있다. 그러므로 본 연구지역을 대상으로 추정한 함양율은 지하수이용에 따른 지하수위하강에 대한 보정을 할 필요가 있으며 지하수이용실태조사를 추가로 하여 그 이용량만큼을 지하수함양량에 더하여야 할것이다.
