In this work, the finite element method was used to investigate the shifts of resonance frequencies and quality factor of whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) for an opto-fluidic ring resonator (OFRR) biosensor. To describe the near-field radiation transfer, the time-domain Maxwell's equations were employed and solved by using the in-plane TE wave application mode of the COMSOL Multiphysics with RF module. The OFRR biosensor model under current study includes a glass capillary with a diameter of 100 mm and wall thickness of 3.0 mm. The resonance energy spectrum curves in the wavelength range from 1545 nm to 1560 nm were examined under different biosensing conditions. We mainly studied the sensitivity of resonance shifts affected by changes in the effective thickness of the sensor resonator ring with a 3.0 mm thick wall, as well as changes in the refractive index (RI) of the medium inside ring resonators with both 2.5 mm and 3.0 mm thick walls. In the bulk RI detection, a sensitivity of 23.1 nm/refractive index units (RIU) is achieved for a 2.5 mm thick ring. In small molecule detection, a sensitivity of 26.4 pm/nm is achieved with a maximum Q-factor of $6.3{\times}10^3$. These results compare favorably with those obtained by other researchers.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to find the optimum working conditions for spot welding of wire Cu alloys to achieve high-level quality. The parts subject to spot welding are brush card assemblies, which are the main module of the electric movement method of the car seat. Methods: In this study, the signal-to-noise ratio(SN ratio) and the loss function [L(y)] are used as Taguchi method for dynamic characteristics. Results: The results of the study are as follows. First, the analysis of variance using SN ratio showed 6 significant factors(p = 0.1% or less) among 7 factors except press force. Second, the optimal design of the dynamic characteristics is the tip exchange cycle: 50,000 ea., the welding time is 110 ms, the pressing force is 11 kgf/cm2, the rise time is 40 ms, and the tip dressing is 3,000 ea., Tip angle is 12o and electric current is 1,800 A. Conclusion: The validity of the spot welding process of the manufacturer's brush card assembly was verified and proved to be consistent with the study results. The results of this study are expected to standardize the welding conditions and guarantee the quality level required by the customers.

The Bark Coherence Function (BCF) defies a coherence function within perceptual domain as a new cognition module, robust to linear distortions due to the analog interface of digital mobile system. Our previous experiments have shown the superiority of BCF over current measures. In this paper, a new BCF suitable for VoIP is developed. The unproved BCF is based on the wavelet series expansion that provides good frequency resolution while keeping good time locality. The proposed Wavelet based Bark Coherence function (WBCF) is robust to variable delay often observed in packet-based telephony such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). We also show that the refinement of time synchronization after signal decomposition can improve the performance of the WBCF. The regression analysis was performed with VoIP speech data. The correlation coefficients and the standard error of estimates computed using the WBCF showed noticeable improvement over the Perceptual Speech Quality Measure (PSQM) that is recommended by ITU-T.

LED light sources have been known to have a long life and good energy efficiency compared to traditional light sources. Recently, headlamps using LED light sources have ensured the forward visibility and safe operation of high-speed rolling stock. However, assessing the lifespan of LED headlamps based on real test data is not easy because it depends on the multiple stress factors such as a fixed driving current, junction temperature, vibration and so on. Generally, LED headlamps have failed before their advertised life span mainly due to temperature. Thus, the performance assessment of a temperature control unit should be done before a life cycle test of LED headlamps. This study attempted to develop a prototype temperature control module for a lifecycle test system using a commercial LED headlight and verified the system through experiments.

In this paper, a trench structure was fabricated by femtosecond-laser machining to eliminate thermal crosstalk in a multichannel variable optical attenuator (VOA), to prevent decreasing attenuation efficiency of the VOA. Trenches of a variety of widths and depths were fabricated on the VOA chips by femtosecond-laser processing. After the machining, attenuation according to current change was observed in each VOA chip module with trenches. As a result, we could observe high responsivity of attenuation and low power consumption, and that the heat of each channel barely influenced other channels.

The increase of world's population and economic development are the keys drivers behind growing demand for energy. Especially the demand for electricity would eventually result in an increase of coal usage. Therefore ultra supercritical circulating fluidized bed boiler has been developed as solutions of economic eco-friendly technologies for coal and of increasing supplies of low grade fuels. Ultra supercritical circulating fluidized bed boiler has an once through type of steam cycle different from drum type in subcritical circulating fluidized bed boiler. Also, the duplication of a proven commercial module with 100-300 MWe subcritical circulating fluidized bed might be the key for design of 500~800 MWe ultra supercritical circulating fluidized bed boiler. After 2017, ultra supercritical circulating fluidized bed boiler might become standard model over subcritical circulating fluidized bed boiler. Therefore, this paper will help you to understand ultra super critical circulating fluidized bed (USC-CFB) through describing the background, status and prospect of the CFB technology.

Context-awareness is a technology to facilitate information acquisition and execution by supporting interoperability between users and devices based on users' context. It is one of the most important technologies in ubiquitous computing. In this paper, we propose a middleware and a context server for dealing with context-awareness in ubiquitous Computing and implement an application system using them. The middleware proposed in our work plays an important role in recognizing a moving node with mobility by using a Bluetooth wireless communication technology as well as in executing an appropriate execution module according to the context acquired from a context server. In addition, the proposed context server functions as a manager that efficiently stores into a database server context information, such as user's current status, physical environment, and resources of a computing system. Finally, our application system implemented in our work one which provides a music playing service based on context information, and it verifies the usefulness of both the middleware and the context server developed in our work.

The study considers the meaning of the composite images created when users capture present images over past images tagged location data in using the mobile augmented reality technology. The composite image through the location-based augmented reality technology is the result of matching the same location data between present images users are capturing and past images captured already. It is the new composite images that contain two different narratives-current and past in the same space and in real-time. We developed the mobile application implemented augmented reality technology and analysed the process that users create multi-layered narrative in the middle of capturing present image through augmented reality module. In addition, through the comparison with similar studies and applications of the augmented reality, we found that the key to give the multi-narrative in the composite images is the user's participation to put its personal intentions in real-time capturing process. In further development, we'll be able to utilize the application in order that users easily create multi-layered narrative composite image using cultural and personal records.

In this paper, we have developed a data monitoring system for activation analysis based on fuel heater of diesel cars. The light oil of diesel engine below a constant temperature be changed to the waxing materials of a semisolid status like a paraffin, and then it may not start. In order to evaluate an engine activation performance, we suggest an engine start time with an change between an extremely low temperature and high temperature, a delay time goes with heater resistor and current and pressure. So, we have developed sensor module system that can obtain the operational status data between fuel line and fuel heater, and evaluate the performance of fuel heater through monitoring of a temperature and pressure. Finally, we can gather the temperature and pressure data of this system with mobile terminal, remotely and propose an utility of this system that can find problems of fuel heater through measured data.
