  • This paper discusses the issues associated with the design of high speed machines for applications with a wide constant-power region requirement. Using described multi-domain design environments which put equal weight on the electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical considerations, the suitability and power density achievable using Induction Machines (IM) and Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSM) are compared.

  • Spin-coated waterborne polyurethane to protect glass surface from environmental attacks was cured by using microwave heating. The effect of microwave heating on the reaction kinetics, chemical durability, and transmittance of polyurethane was investigated. In comparison to the conventional heating the results show that the microwave heating substantially accelerates the curing process of waterborne polyurethane and the total time for the completion of the reaction is only 1/7 of that in the conventional process. The microwave cured sample showed an excellent caustic resistance compared to conventional cured one. It means that microwave heating produces dense structure during curing process. The dense structure does not affect to the transmittance in the visible region.

  • This paper describes best-practices in lifting an image metadata standard to the Semantic Web. We provide guidelines on how an XML-based metadata format can be converted into an OWL ontology. Additionally, we discuss how this ontology can be mapped to the W3C's Media Ontology. This ontology is a standardization effort of the W3C to provide a core vocabulary for multimedia annotations. The approach presented here can be applied to other XML-based metadata standards.

  • Wind-induced vibrations of mast arms of cantilever traffic signal structures can lead to fatigue failure. Two such structures were instrumented each with a sonic anemometer and a camera that records the motions of the tip of the arm. It was observed throughout this experiment that large amplitude vertical vibrations of mast arms with signals with backplates occur for the most part at low wind speed ranges, between 2 to 7 m/s, and as the wind speed increases the amplitude of the vertical vibrations decreases. The results of these experiments contradict the generally accepted belief that vortex shedding does not cause significant vibrations of mast arms that could lead to fatigue failure, which have been attributed to galloping in the past. Two damping devices were tested with mixed results.

  • This paper proposes a theoretically rigorous analysis procedure that compares the position domain and range domain carrier-smoothed-code filters for differential GNSS positioning. Utilizing consistent error covariance formulation, it is shown that filtering in the position domain is, in theory, more advantageous than range domain carrier-smoothed-code filtering. It is also shown that if the visible satellite set does not change during a sufficiently long time interval the performances of position and range domain filters are similar.

  • Across the world, building energy codes are becoming stricter, demanding higher levels of energy performance with each issuance. Some locations have taken initiatives to eliminate operational emissions altogether by requiring buildings to be carbon neutral. However, while the objectives of carbon neutrality are without doubt statement worthy, we believe that once operational performance has been tackled to a reasonable level of performance the sights should be trained on a different objective-life; cycle carbon. This paper defines what we mean by life cycle carbon neutrality and presents an approach toward reducing it.

  • ASTRO-F is the next generation Japanese infrared space mission of the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science. ASTRO-F will be dedicated to an All Sky Survey in the far-infrared in 4 bands from 50-200microns with 2 additional mid-infrared bands at 9microns and 20microns. This will be the first all sky survey in the infrared since the ground breaking IRAS mission almost 20 years ago and the first ever survey at 170microns. The All Sky Survey should detect 10's of millions of sources in the far-infrared bands most of which will be dusty luminous and ultra-luminous star forming galaxies, with as many as half lying at redshifts greater than unity. In this contribution, the ASTRO-F mission and its objectives are reviewed and many of the mission expectations are discussed.

  • 급속한 정보 기술의 발전에 따라 인터넷 서비스의 고속화에 대한 요구가 급증하고 있다. 이에 따라 인터넷 관련 네트워크 장비들의 수요가 앞으로도 지속적으로 증대할 것으로 쉽게 예상할 수 있다. 하지만 국내 네트워크 관련 장비들은 아직도 외산에 많이 의존하는 실정이며, 특히 인터넷 망을 구성하는 핵심 요소인 인터넷 서버는 외산에 절대적으로 의존을 하고 있다. 따라서 개인용 컴퓨터 생산기술, 중대형 컴퓨터 설계 개발 기술, 메모리 설계 생산 기술 등 국내 산업계가 보유하고 있는 우수한 기술을 바탕으로 지속적인 연구 개발이 이루어져야 할 것이다. 본 논문은 인터넷 기반에서 1Gbps의 전송속도를 갖는 스트리밍 서버의 핵심 구성요소인 네트워크 스토리지 서브시스템의 구조를 제안한다. 본 연구를 통하여 국내에서도 중대형시스템을 위한 컴퓨터시스템의 구조에 대한 연구가 활성화되기를 기대한다.
