This paper presents a constant power control logic for perfect starting a microtubine in vehicle. Under extremely low temperature, performance of the start-up system is severely dropped than that of room temperature because of increasing of load of mechanical parts including engine core and drop of the lead-acid battery capacity. Unfortunately, performance drop of lead-acid battery makes severe problems that cause a malfunction of fuel and lubrication system and power fail of digital devices. So we propose the new start-up logic by constant output power control of lead-acid battery using PWM inverter controller for preventing above problems and keeping good performance of start-up system for microturbine. Also, we prove usefulness of new start-up logic through experimental results under $-32^{\circ}C$ ambient temperature.

Heated glasses are widely used to prevent surface condensation and freezing in ship and building windows. This study proposes a heated glass temperature control system composed of power and control circuits to control the temperature of heated glasses. The proposed temperature control system adopts a digital controller instead of a conventional analog controller. Thus, the proposed system has better characteristics, such as precise setup and control of glass temperature, setup and control of output power, and control mode change between ON/OFF and phase controls. The system can also implement multi-functional control algorithms. The control characteristics are not dependent upon external disturbances, such as ambient temperature and electrical noises. Furthermore, the proposed temperature control system utilizes the power line communication (PLC) method to control the number of heated glasses without any extra communication lines. The system proposes a new communication protocol with strong immunity to electrical switching noises. A new sensorless algorithm is used to detect the temperature of the heated glass. This study presents the design guidelines in detail and its effectiveness are confirmed by implementing a 4-kw prototype temperature control system.

Ti-50 at. % Ni 합금 타깃으로 PLD(pulsed laser deposition)방법을 사용하여 TiNi 형상기억합금 박막을 제작하였다. Ar분위기(200 mTorr)와 고진공분위기($5{\times}10^{-6}\;Torr$)에서 제작한 TiNi 박막의 조성 및 결정성의 변화를 조사했으며, 박막의 조성은 에너지 분산 엑스선 분광 분석(EDXS)을 이용하여 조사하였고, 박막의 결정성은 엑스선 회절장치(XRD)를 이용하여 조사하였다. 박막의 조성은 기판과 타깃의 거리에 의존되었지만, 기판의 온도와는 무관함을 알 수 있었으며, Ar 분위기에서 플룸 안쪽에 기판이 위치하였을 때 조성 제어가 용이함을 알 수 있었다. 또한, Ar 가스 분위기에서 증착 된 TiNi 박막은 고진공분위기에서 증착된 박막보다 더 낮은 온도(약 $400^{\circ}C$)에서 in situ로 결정화됨을 알 수 있었다. 이들 결과는, PLD방법으로 TiNi 형상기억합금 박막을 제작할 때 분위기 가스의 압력이 결정화 온도를 낮추어 주는 중요한 역할을 할 수 있음을 시사한다.

When raining or snowing, windshield wiper system is very important for safety of driver. However, manual wiper system frequently needed to be controlled for sufficient visibility and it was very uncomfortable. So, rain sensor which controls automatically was developed. This rain sensor technology uses optical sensing technique sensed the rainfall by receiving reflected light of rain dropped on the windshield. The technology used optical sensor was simple and easy to implement as a rain sensing system in the car. However, it is sometime shown low accuracy to measure rainfall on the windshield when affected by ambient lights from surroundings. It is also given inconvenience to the driver to control the car. To solving these problems, we propose a rain sensing system using image sensor and the fuzzy wiper control algorithm.

Using industrial robots and sensors, we developed an inline car body inspection system which proposes high flexibility and sufficient accuracy. Car Body Inspection(CBI) cell consists of two industrial robots, two corresponding carriages, camera vision system, a process computer with multi-tasking ability and several LDS's. As industrial robots guarantee sufficient repeatabilities, the CBI cell adopts the concept of relative measurement instead of that of absolute measurement. By comparing the actual measured data with reference data, the dimensional errors of the corresponding points can be calculated. The length of the robot arms changes according to ambient temperature and it affects the measuring accuracy. To compensate this error, a robot arm calibration process was realized. By measuring a reference jig, the differential changes of the robot arms due to temperature fluctuation can be calculated and compensated.

To investigate the effects of short-term exposure of beryllium on the human immune system, the proportion of T-lymphocytes such as CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, CD95, and NK cells, and the proportion of B cells and $TNF{\alpha}$ level in peripheral blood and immunoglobulins in the serum of 43 exposed workers and 34 healthy control subjects were studied. External exposure to beryllium was measured by atomic absorption spectrometer as recommended by the NIOSH analytical method 7300. T lymphocyte subpopulation analysis was carried out with flow cytometer. The working duration of exposed workers was less than 3 months and the mean ambient beryllium level was $3.4{\mu}g/m^3$, $112.3{\mu}g/m^3$, and $2.3{\mu}g/m^3$ in molding (furnace), deforming (grinding), and sorting processes, respectively (cited from Kim et al., 2008). However, ambient beryllium level after process change was non-detectable (< $0.1{\mu}g/m^3$). The number of T lymphocytes and the amount of immunoglobulins in the beryllium-exposed workers and control subjects were not significantly different, except for the total number of lymphocytes and CD95 (APO1/FAS). The total number of lymphocytes was higher in the beryllium-exposed individuals than in the healthy control subjects. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed lymphocytes to be affected by beryllium exposure (odd ratio = 7.293; p<0.001). These results show that short-term exposure to beryllium does not induce immune dysfunction but is probably associated with lymphocytes proliferation.

It is more likely that the degree of air quality degradation that we have faced would be much lessen, if integrated management of air pollution control and assessment had been fully enforced by the local administrations, not by the centralized environmental agency in the first place. As the selfgoverning local administrations have been established since 1995, the need for air quality control by the local administration or local agency is getting the ground. However, in practice, air quality control by the local administration rarely put into effect due to lack of basic data which cover the present trends of air quality in each local city or county and are necessary for decision making. The emissions of SO$_2$ in each city and county of Korea in 1993 were calculated in this study, based on energy consumptions and emission factors. The ambient concentrations of SO$_2$ also were estimated by applying modified Miller-Holtzworth model. Observed and estimated concentrations of SO$_2$ showed that about 17.5 percents of cities and counties in the country were more polluted than the target value, 20ppb/year. The emissions and ambient concentrations of SO$_2$ in each city and county in 2000, 2005, and 2010 were also forecasted, assumed business as usual senario. It was shown that, in 2010, the emissions of SO$_2$ will be 2.8 times more than those of 1993 and much of them are from industrial sector. Also shown that 38.3 percents of cities and counties will be more polluted than the target value and most of them are polluted areas in 1993. The methods and results of this study could be used in developing the efficient reduction strategies in each city and county.

CMOS 카메라 영상의 화질을 좌우하는 것은 여러 가지가 있는데 그 중에서 영상 노출시간은 중요한 요소이다. 영상 노출시간이 길게 되면 화면 전체 영상이 밝아지게 되고 노출시간이 짧아지면 전체 영상이 어두워지게 된다. 정지 피사체를 사진 촬영할 경우 자동노출 시스템이 적절한 노출시간을 얻는데 충분한 시간이 주어지기 때문에 실시간성이 요구되지 않는다. 하지만 주행 중인 자동차의 블랙박스 같이 주변 빛 환경이 빠르게 변하게 되면 이에 맞추어서 노출시간도 실시간으로 반응하여 적용되어야 한다. 이를 위해서는 실시간성과 주변 빛 환경에 대하여 강건한 자동노출 시스템이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 ZYNQ의 로직과 ARM코어를 적용한 임베디드 시스템 설계로 병렬 연산처리 가능한 실시간 제어 시스템을 설계하였고 이를 바탕으로 PID 제어를 통해서 66ms 이내에 원하는 목표 값으로 수렴하고 노이즈에 강건한 실시간 CMOS 자동 노출 시스템을 개발하였다.
