This paper reports on estimating the Schottky barrier height of small contacts using a thermionic-field emission model. Our results indicate that the logarithmic plot of the current as a function of bias voltage across the Schottky diode gives a linear relationship, while the plot as a function of the total applied voltage across a metal-silicon contact gives a parabolic relationship. The Schottky barrier height is extracted from the slope of the linear line resulting from the logarithmic plot of current versus bias voltage across the Schottky diode. The result reveals that the barrier height decreases from 0.6 eV to 0.49 eV when the thickness of the barrier metal is increased from 500 ${\AA}$ to 900 ${\AA}$. The extracted impurity concentration at the contact interface changes slightly with different Ti thicknesses with its maximum value at about $2.9{\times}10^{20}\;cm^{-3}$, which agrees well with the results from secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) measurements.

Noise harriet Is used for noise reduction method of traffic noise. The length and the total cost of that are increased In this national area. But. a maintenance management of noise barrier is not systematic. and the guideline of that is not prepared for maintenance manual. The situations of existed installation and management of noise barriers Installed at 3.619 positions were investigated by questionnarie and direct field survey. And comparisons with foreign management guideline of noise harrier were carried out. The results show that the improvement methods of maintenance management system such as practical checklist and required Items for management of noise barrier were suggested.

Based on the MacDonald's analytic model for the diffracted sound field of a semi-infinite noise barrier, computer simulations were performed for various positions of error microphones for an active noise barrier system. The simulation process also included the effects of floor reflections on both sides of the barrier. The results were also compared with Niu's simulation results and showed a straight line arrangement of sensors and actuators, in the order of primary source, secondary source and error microphone is better than over the top arrangement of the error microphones.

To produce a fine structure with uniform surface of barrier ribs in PDP, acid etching process has been used in manufacture process. It is necessary to understand the mechanism of etching, particularly on the interface of ceramic fillers and matrix glass. We investigated the effect of ceramic fillers (ZnO, $Al_2O_3$) on the microstructure of borate glass system to find an etching mechanism of barrier ribs. The barrier ribs was etched with several steps, dissolving a small amount of residual glass, taking out alumina fillers, and removing a cluster type of ZnO fillers and glass matrix.

In this study, we investigated the mechanical behaviors of layered thermal barrier coatings by indentations. Various single and double-layered thermal barrier coatings were deposited by air plasma spray process using different type of commercialized YSZ (Yttria stabilized zirconia) starting powders. Indentation stress-strain curve, load-displacement curve and hardness of the single and the double-layered thermal barrier coatings were obtained experimentally and analyzed. The indentation damages at the same loads were compared, and thus, the results depend on the structure of each coating. The result indicates improvement in damage resistances from tailoring of layered structures in the component of gas turbine system is expected.

Development of a barrier system for floating debris at river is introduced. The system is to prevent pollution of coastal water caused by marine debris which originates from land. The system consists of harrier boom, mooring system and boom winder. The harrier boom, which is self-inflatable with circular band spring, guides floating debris to a collecting conveyer system. Design parameters of the harrier system were reviewed and its design criteria were established. Based on the established design criteria, a pilot harrier system was built and tested at Tanchon branch of the Han river. It is proved that the suggested system is very efficient to collect floating debris at river.

We present a novel head tracking system for stereoscopic displays that ensures the viewer has a high degree of movement. The tracker is capable of segmenting the viewer from background objects using their relative distance. A depth camera using TOF(Time-Of-Flight) is used to generate a key signal for eye tracking application. A method of the moving parallax barrier is also introduced to supplement a disadvantage of the fixed parallax barrier that provides observation at the specific locations.

The need to increase the reliability of a structural system has been significantly brought in the procedure of real designs to consider, for instance, the material properties or geometric dimensions that reveal a random or incompletely known nature. Reliability based design optimization of a real system now becomes an emerging technique to achieve reliability, robustness and safety of these problems. Finite element analysis program and the reliability analysis program are necessary to evaluate the responses and the probabilities of failure of the system, respectively. Moreover, integration of these programs is required during the procedure of reliability based design optimization. It is well known that reliability based design optimization can often have so many local minima that it cannot converge to the specified probability of failure. To overcome this problem, barrier function method in reliability based design optimization is suggested. To illustrate the proposed formulation, reliability based design optimization of a bracket is performed. AMV and FORM are employed for reliability analysis and their optimization results are compared based on the accuracy and efficiency.

A median barrier in the road is to separate driver and passenger the traffic flow in the 4-line over highway. In order to keep thee safety of and minimize the traffic jam in the traffic accidents, the ubiquitous intelligent median barrier system is proposed in this paper. This system is required to develop the sensor node fields in the median barrier, which detects the traffic accident using vibration sensors and wireless communication network. Free space test to sensing & receiving radio frequency, verification of middleware to report and countermeasure the accident intelligently to police and hospital are carried out.

In recent years, residential apartment building parking lots are built in underground spaces, and with conjunction to improve the environment of the urban area, artificial greeen roof systems are installed on the upper slabs. However, early plant growth are resulting in root penetration into concrete cracks and in turn into the waterproofing membranes, leading to degradation and damaging of the waterproofing system and structural durability. This issue highlights a problem of conventional maintenance system of concrete structures, and proposals for amendments follow. In this study, a waterproofing and root barrier construction design for the upper slabs of residential building underground parking lots is proposed, and motioned to be added into future construction specifications.
