The numerical methods for finding the optimal parameters in 640 Gbps (16 channels $\times$ 40 Gbps) WDM system with optical phase conjugator (OPC) are proposed, which effectively compensate the distorted overall WDM channels. The considered optimal parameters are the OPC position and the dispersion coefficient of fibers. The numerical approaches are accomplished through two different procedures. One of these procedures is that the optimal OPC position is previously searched and then the optimal dispersion coefficient is searched at the obtained optimal OPC position. The other is the reverse of the above procedure. From the numerical results, it is confirmed that two optimal parameters depend on each other, but less related with the searching procedure. The methods proposed in this research will be expected to alternate with the method of making a symmetrical distribution of power and local dispersion in real optical link which is a serious problem of applying the OPC into multi-channels WDM system.

The various techniques to compensate for the signal distortion due to the group velocity dispersion (GVD) and nonlinear Kerr effects of optical fibers in the optical links have been proposed in the literature. We propose a flexible dispersion-managed link configuration consisted of single-mode and dispersion-compensating fibers with irregular dispersion coefficients over all fiber spans, and an optical phase conjugator added midway along the optical links. By distributing the lengths of the single mode fibers, we achieve a flexible optical link. The simultaneous ascending and descending distribution of the single-mode fiber lengths before and after the optical phase conjugator, respectively, best compensates the distorted wavelength division multiplexed signals in the optical link with non-fixed coefficients. Our result is consistent with those of our previous work on fixed coefficients. Therefore, to improve the compensation at any magnitude of dispersion coefficient, we must artificially distribute the lengths of the single-mode fibers into a dispersion-managed link.

An equivalent retention has been experimentally observed in thermal field-flow fractionation (ThFFF) for different polymer-solvent systems. It is shown that iso-retention between two sets of polymer-solvent systems can be obtained by adjusting the temperature difference (ΔT) according to the difference in the ratio of ordinary diffusion coefficient to thermal diffusion coefficient. This method uses a compensation of field strength (ΔT) in ThFFF at a fixed condition of cold wall temperature. It is applied for the calculation of molecular weight of polymers based on a calibration run of different standards obtained at an adjusted AT. The polymer standards used in this study are polystyrene (PS), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), and polytetrahydrofuran (PTHF). Three carrier solvents, tetrahydrofuran (THF), methylethylketone (MEK) and ethylacetate (ETAc) were employed. Though the accuracy in the calculation of molecular weight is dependent on the difference in the slope of log λ vs. log M which is related to Mark-Houwink constant a, it shows reasonable agreement within about 6% of relative error in molecular weight calculation for the polymer-solvent systems having similar a value.

Lithium-ion batteries used for IT, automobiles, and industrial energy-storage devices have battery management systems (BMS) to protect the battery from abnormal voltage, current, and temperature environments, as well as safety devices like, current interruption device (CID), fuse, and vent to obtain positive temperature coefficient (PTC). Nonetheless, there are harmful to human health and property and damage the brand image of the manufacturer because of smoke, fire, and explosion of lithium battery packs. In this paper, we propose a systematic protection algorithm combining battery temperature, over-current, and interconnection between protection elements to prevent copper deposition, internal short circuit, and separator shrinkage due to frequent and instantaneous over-current discharges. The parameters of the proposed algorithm are suggested to utilize the experimental data in consideration of battery pack operating conditions and malicious conditions.

원자력 발전소로부터 방출되는 기체상 방사성 물질에 의한 환경 영향을 평가함에 있어서 방사성 물질의 대기중에서의 수송과 확산을 기술하는 모델로써 Gaussian plume mode띠 널리 사용되고 있다. Gaussian plume model은 평탄한 지형에 적용하도록 만들어진 모델이므로 대부분의 국토가 복잡한 산악으로 구성된 한극의 경우에 적용하기 위해서는 모델의 수정이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 2차원적 x-ｚ 평면에서 확산방정식을 해석한 numerical diffusion model과 Gaussian plume model을 비교하여, Gaussian plume mode에서 가장 중요한 변수인 dispersion coefficient를 지형의 높이에 대하여 보정하였다. 보정된 dispersion coefficient 값을 Gaussian plume mode에 적용시켜 계산을 수행한 결과를 보면, 산악지역에서의 방사성 물질의 농도는 평지에서보다 낮게 나타나고 있다.

교차도파관 방향성결합기는 결합도가 증가함에 따라 방향성이 감소하는 특성을 갖고 있다. 본 논문에서는 교차도파관 방향성결합기의 방향성을 향상시킬 수 있도록 X형 슬롯 쌍의 구조 변수를 수정하고, 그에 따른 관계식을 제안하였다. 그리고 K밴드 주파수 대역에서 그 관계식을 토대로 설계된 교차도파관 방향성결합기는 WR42 도파관을 사용하여 제작하였다. 측정한 결과 WR42 주파수 대역인 $18GHz{\sim}26.5GHz$에서 평균 결합도는 21.05dB, 방향성은 최소 23.9dB로 나타났다.

Autogenous shrinkage of high-strength mass concrete is affected high temperature history. So to evaluate autogenous shrinkage of high-strength mass concrete accurately, thermal expansion in it should be removed. In this study, compensated autogenous shrinkage was calculated after gathering thermal expansion coefficient at early age experimentally. As a result of the study. Autogenous shrinkage of mass specimen (300 ${\times}$ 300 ${\times}$ 300mm) was remarkably higher than it of standard specimen (100 ${\times}$ 100 ${\times}$ 400mm). So it was found that compensation on thermal expansion should in evaluating autogenous shrinkage of high-strength mass concrete. And this study shows results on opc and similar own contraction, if used retarder.

PET/CT촬영 시 호흡에 의해 병소의 움직임으로 인한 영상의 왜곡이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는본원에서 보유하고 있는 호흡보정 Plumonary Toolkit을 이용한 폐결절부위를 영상화 함으로써 보정을 하지 않은 영상과 비교하여 SUV값의 변화와 영상의 왜곡을 어느 정도 교정할 수 있는지 실험하였다. 2008년 5월에서 8월까지 폐암을 진단받은 환자 17명을 대상으로 하였다. 실험결과 Max SUV값은 최소 4.08%에서 최대 43.10%까지의 증가율을 보였고 폐결절의 평균 Max SUV값은 6.07에서 7.00로 12.16%로 증가가 되었다. 호흡보정 PET/CT의 경우 영상의 왜곡이 개선되었다. SCC-Adenocarcinoma에서는 호흡보정 전.후에 통계적의로 유의한 수준(P<0.05)을 보였으나 SCC와 Adenocarcinom에 대한 각각의 비교에서는 유의성을 보이지 않아 Cell type과 관계없이 호흡보정에 효과가 있었다. 실험 결과Pulmonary Toolkit을 사용할 경우 표준섭취 계수값과 영상에서의 왜곡이 보정되었다. 따라서 폐암의 진단 및 추적관찰에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare universal goniometry (UG), which is commonly used in clinical practice to measure the range of motion (ROM) of finger joints with a wearable soft sensor glove, and to analyze the reliability to determine its usefulness. Methods: Ten healthy adults (6 males, 4 females) participated in this study. The metacarpophalangeal joint (MCP), interphalangeal joint (IP), and proximal interphalangeal joint (PIP) of both hands were measured using UG and Mollisen HAND soft sensor gloves during active flexion, according to the American Society for Hand Therapists' measurement criteria. Measurements were taken in triplicate and averaged. The mean and standard deviation of the two methods were calculated, and the 95% limits of agreement (LOA) of the measurements were calculated using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Bland-Altman plot to examine the reliability and discrepancies between the measurements. Results: The results of the mean values of the flexion angles for the active range of motion (AROM) of the finger joints showed large angular differences in the finger joints, except for the MCP of the thumb. In the inter-rater reliability analysis according to the measurement method, the ICC (2, 1) value showed a low level close to 0, and the mean difference by the Bland-Altman plot showed a value greater than 0, showing a pattern of discrepancy. The 95% LOA had a wide range of differences. Conclusion: This study is a preliminary study investigating the usefulness of the soft sensor glove, and the reliability analysis showed a low level of reliability and inconsistency. However, if future studies can overcome the limitations of this study and the technical problems of the soft sensor glove in the development stage, it is suggested that the measurement instrument can show more accurate measurement and higher reliability when measuring ROM with UG.
