We present a numerical model to simulate coupled hydro-mechanical behavior of fault using TOUGH-FLAC simulator. This study aims to develop a numerical method to estimate fluid injection-induced fault reactivation in low permeability rock and to access the relevant hydro-mechanical stability in rock as part of DECOVALEX-2019 Task B. A coupled fluid flow and mechanical interface model to explicitly represent a fault was suggested and validated from the applications to benchmark simulations and the field experiment at Mont Terri underground laboratory in Switzerland. The pressure build-up, hydraulic aperture evolution, displacement, and stress responses matched those obtained at the site, which indicates the capability of the model to appropriately capture the hydro-mechanical processes in rock fault.

A fiber-coupled laser-diode pumped ceramic Nd:YAG laser for compensating the thermal tensing effect was developed. The thermal tensing effect was compensated using a convex lens, which was 25 mm away from the laser rod, with a focal length of 30 mm and an effective clear aperture of 22 mm. Without a compensator, the laser output power decreased suddenly above a pump power of 6 W. Using a compensator, the laser output power increased linearly according to the pump power. The beam propagation factor $M^{2}$ was 2.4 under a pump power of 12 W.

This paper describes a design for the circularly polarized microstrip EMC cross dipole array antenna with the wide bandwidth. To realize the characteristics of wide bandwidth and circular polarization, the electromagnetic-coupled cross dipole element is proposed. The optimum design parameters of a circularly polarized EMC cross dipole element are calculated by the FDTD and the Ensemble. To obtain the uniform aperture illumination of electric field in an array, offset technique that the cross dipole elements are alternatively arranged on center of the microstrip feed line is adopted. In 20-element array design, the calculated axial ratio and gain are about 0.1dB and 9.9 dBi at 12 GHz, respectively, The frequency characteristics of a fabricated 20-element array antenna are measured. The calculated results agree well with the measured ones.

Recently, focused ion beam (FIB) applications have been investigated for the modification of VLSI circuit, the MEMS processing, and the localized ion doping, A multi aperture FIB system has been introduced as the demands of FIB applications for high speed and large area processing increase. A liquid metal ion source has problems, a large angular divergence and a metal contamination into a substrate. In this study, a gas ion source was introduced to replace a liquid metal ion source. The gas ion source generated inductively coupled plasma (ICP) in a quartz tube (diameter: 45 mm). Ar gas fed into the quartz was ionized by a 2 turned radio frequency antenna. The Ar ions were extracted by 2 extraction grids. The maximum extraction voltage was 10 kV. A numerical simulation was used to optimize the design of extraction grids and to predict an ion trajectory. As a result, the maximum ion current density was 38 $mA/cm^2$ and the spread of ion energy was 1.6 % for the extraction voltage.

Effect of substrate thickness, perforation position and size on the bandwidth and radiation characteristics of a proximity coupled perforated microstrip patch antenna (PCPPA) with $2{\times}2$ square perforations inside a patch is investigated. As the thicknesses of antenna substrate and feed substrate increase, the bandwidth of a PCPPA increases without the degradation of radiation characteristics. As the position of a perforation moves toward the edge of a patch along the length direction, the bandwidth of a PCPPA increases without the degradation of radiation characteristics, while the effect of changing the position of a perforation along the width direction on the bandwidth and radiation characteristics of a PCPPA is negligible. As the perforation size is decreased, the bandwidth of a PCPPA is increased and the radiation characteristics of a PCPPA are enhanced.

In this paper, the novel patch antenna for polarization diversity using switching element is presented. The proposed antenna consists of the square patch with a pair of truncated corners and a microstrip-feed line with power divider. A switching microstrip-line feed works at schottky diode ON / OFF that is placed at $\lambda$/4 point from branch-off point of power divider. Polarization diversity has two types(LHCP. RHCP) as switching the schottky diodes. The measured 3 ㏈ axial ratio bandwidth for switching operation is about 2 %.

There are many researches going on to develop the information storage devices using Blue-ray disc and DVD as a demand for high-density information storage devices is highly increasing. This high-density information storage device requires a short-wave laser and objective lens of high numerical aperture set in fer its operation. And, that brings out rapid decrease of tilt tolerance. Therefore, it is necessary that an actuator should control tilt motions to get a stable signal. In this paper, a new mathematical form of 3-D.O.F coupled model is formulated and magnetic circuit in constraints is most effectively designed with the use of the moving coil type actuator in higher sensitivity. Further, this paper presents a tilt coil whose rotational center point is put on that of the lens through the variation of tilt coil and proposes a 3-axis actuator with high sensitivity improved in its dynamic property through its structure analysis.
