Porous Al metal was produced by batch type casting process. In this foaming process, the viscosity and surface tension of molten Al as two most important factors have been investigated in the temperature range of 680-95$0^{\circ}C$ by the ring method and rotational method respectively. The experimental results showed that both the surface tension and viscosity of the melt decreased linearly with increasing temperature. Addition of Ca decreased surface tension, but increased viscosity significantly.

Conventional methods for selecting jamming techniques in electronic warfare are based on libraries in which a list of jamming techniques for radar signals is recorded. However, the choice of jamming techniques by the library is limited when modified signals are received. In this paper, we propose a method to predict the jamming technique for radar signals by using deep learning methods. Long short-term memory(LSTM) is a deep running method which is effective for learning the time dependent relationship in sequential data. In order to determine the optimal LSTM model structure for jamming technique prediction, we test the learning parameter values that should be selected, such as the number of LSTM layers, the number of fully-connected layers, optimization methods, the size of the mini batch, and dropout ratio. Experimental results demonstrate the competent performance of the LSTM model in predicting the jamming technique for radar signals.

In an effort to find a solution to the eutrophication of major Korean rivers, a method to utilize multi-purpose filtration pond was investigated. As literature showed that oyster shell is known to be the most adequate for the removal of dissolved phosphorus in Korean rivers, batch and column experiments were performed using oyster shell as an adsorbent in this study. The results of the batch experiment showed that the removal of dissolved phosphorus from river water through adsorption as a way of preventing algal growth was not practical. The results obtained from the column experiment, however, suggested that oyster shell may be utilized as an adsorbent under limited conditions. Based on the results of the experiments a methodology was proposed to remove algae from river water through the use of multi-purpose filtration pond. This method involves mechanically removing the accumulated algae cake from the surface of the artificial stream in the pond towards the condensing part located at the lower reach of the stream, where particles gather before the final removal. In addition, employment of oyster shell as an adsorbent in the condensing part allows prevention of phosphorus released from the dead algae re-entering the river water.

This study presents the influence of ammonium-nitrogen on microorganisms in swine wastewater. For the anaerobic batch fermentation, two different methods were used. One is the dilution of wastewater with water. The other method is the elimination of ammonium-nitrogen from the wastewater. By addition of MgO into wastewater, non-soluble crystall was formed under alkaline condition as MgNH$_4$PO$_4$6$H_2O$ (MAP). The master culture was adapted in swine wastewater for more than 3 months, in water-dilution method, the dilution of wastewater with 25% water gave us the best result in efficiency of COD removal. Two hundred hours later MAP-treated wastewater showed the efficiency of the COD removal more than 80%. Under same condition obtained none MAP-treated wastewater about 50%. MAP treatment carried out the very effective anaerobic digestion with swine wastewater. The important result in this study is that the low ratio of C:N influenced on anaerobic microorganisms more than high concentration of ammonium nitrogen in swine wastewater. The struvite for the crystallforming has no toxic effect on methanogenic bacteria.

Simulated Moving Bed(SMB) process consists of multiple chromatographic columns, which are usually partitioned into four zones. Such a process characteristic allows a continuous binary separations those are impracticable in conventional batch chromatographic processes. Compared with batch chromatography, SMB has advantages of continuity, high purity and productivity. Various researches have been reported for the integration of reaction and recovery during process operation on the purpose of economics and effectiveness. Simulated Moving Bed Reactor(SMBR) is introduced to combine SMB as a continuous separation process and reactor. Several cases of SMBR have been reported for diverse reactions with catalytic, enzymatic and chemical reaction on ion exchange resin as main streams. With an early type of fixed bed using catalyst, SMBR has been developed as SMB using fluidized enzyme, SMB with immobilized enzyme and SMB with discrete reaction region. For simple modeling and optimization of SMBR, a method considering convection only is possible. A complex method considering axial dispersion and mass transfer resistance is needed to explain the real behavior of solutes in SMBR. By combining reaction and separation, SMBR has benefits of lower installation cost by minimizing equipment use, higher purity and yield by avoiding the equilibrium restriction in case of reversible reaction.

It is very important to reduce the computational processing time for the application of the vision system in real time such as inspection, the determination of object's dimension and welding etc, because the vision system model involves a lot of measurement data acquired by CCD camera. Also, a lot of computation time is required in estimating the parameters in the vision system model if the iterative batch estimation method such as Newton Raphson is used. Thus, the effective computation method such as the Extended Kalman Filtering(EKF) is required to solve the above problems. The EKF has much advantages in that it takes explicitly into account the measurement uncertainties, and is a simple and efficient recursive procedures. Thus, this study is to develop the EKF algorithm to compute the parameters in the vision system model in real time. This vision system model involves the six parameters to account for the cameras inner and outer parameters. Also the EKF is applied to estimate the object's dimension. Finally, practicality of the estimation scheme of the vision system based on the EKF is verified experimently by performing the estimation of object's dimension.

This study evaluated the ecotoxicological properties of livestock waste water treated by a LID (Low Impact Development) system, using a mixture of bio-reeds and bio-ceramics as suitable bed media for a subsequent treatment process of a livestock wastewater treatment plant. The relationship between the pollutant reduction rate and the ecotoxicity was analyzed with the effluents from the inlet pilot plant, with vegetated swale and wetlands and the batch type of an infiltration trench. Each pilot plant consisted of a bio process using bio-reeds and bio-ceramics as bed media, as well as a general process using general reeds and a bed as a control group. The results indicated that, after applying the HRT 24 hour LID method, the ecotoxicity was considerably lowered and the batch type pilot plant was shown to be effective for toxicity reduction. The LID method is expected to be effective for water quality management, considering ecotoxicity by not only as a nonpoint source pollution abatement facility but also, as a subsequent treatment process linked with a livestock manure purification facility. It is necessary to take the LID technic optimization study further to apply it as a subsequent process for livestock wastewater treatment.

A pretreatment method to increase enzymatic digestibility for waste paper such as newspaper was investigated. Ash content, substrate size and printed ink were considered to be factors that affect on enzymatic hydrolysis. The effect on enzymatic digestibility of varying these factor were measured. Printed ink had the highest effect of the three factors, so a method was developed to remove the ink during pretreatment. Fist, a pretreatment process using a percolation reactor was tried. The digestibility of the substrate pretreated at 170$\^{C}$, however, was less than that of the untreated substrate because only small portion of ink was removed. Therefore, a batch type process at less than 100$\^{C}$ was devised. Of several schemes, a method using amonia-hydrogen peroxide mixture on a shaking bath proved most effective. The digestibility obtained from this method was about 85%--approximately 20% greater than the untreated substrate. This proves the pretreatment method was very effective in treating waste paper. The high digestibility obtained from this pretreatment is probably due to the effects of the hydrogen peroxide that can enhance ink removal and substrate swelling.

In this paper, we present a very useful method for updating digital satellite radio broadcast channel information. When a devices equipped with function to receive Digital Satellite Radio such as Home Theater, MP3 player, mobile phones, car audio system and various other types of Digital Devices, receives new Digital satellite radio (will be mentioned as XM radio onwards) broadcast channel information, only the current received XM radio broadcast channel and N number of pre/post nearby broadcast channels are scanned randomly in zigzag manner. Then the previous XM radio broadcast channel information updated with the newly received XM radio broadcast channel information. Since this method can prevent batch update for all XM radio channel, including some channels which less likely did not select by user, update process for real time frequently changed XM radio broadcast channel information can be performed efficiently with minimal or without delay.
