Superconducting B $i_2$S $r_2$C $a_{n-l}$C $u_{n}$ $O_{x}$(n=2～4) thin films were prepared by single target DC-magnetron sputtering. And, that was compared with the B $i_2$S $r_2$C $a_{n-l}$C $u_{n}$ $O_{x}$(n=1～3) thin film fabricated by using the ion beam sputtering. Phase intergrowth among n=2-3, 3-4 and 4-5 phases was observed. The molar fraction of each phase in the mixed crystal of the deposited films was determined by x-ray diffraction analyses and investigated as a function of $O_2$ gas pressure during sputtering. We investigated the changes of the superconducting properties by molar fraction of each phase. Also, the thin film surface observation was carried out by atomic force microscope. The images show the average particle size decreases, and the distribution density of particles on the film surface was to increase with lower gas pressures. The fabrication conditions for selective growth of the single n=2, 3 and 4 phases in BiSrC $a_{n-l}$C $u_{n}$ $O_{x}$(n=2～4) thin film are discussed.e discussed.ussed.

버스와 같은 대중교통의 경우에는 서비스수준을 평가하는 효과철도에 확률의 개념이 사용되어, 확률값의 선형비례적인 수치를 기준으로 A~F의 서비스수준의 등급을 구분하기도 한다.(TCQSM: Transit Capacity and Quality of Service Manual-2nd Edition, TRB, Washington DC., 2003) 이 경우 운전자나 승객이 느끼는 정도와 확률값이 선형비례 관계에 있지 않을 수 있는데 이는 서비스수준을 적절하게 반영한다고 볼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 TCQSM에서 제시하고 있는 버스 운행의 정시성 평가 사례를 통해 확률값의 선형비례적인 수치를 기준으로 서비스수준의 등급을 구분할 때 발생하는 문제점을 분석하고, 이러한 문제점을 보완하는 적절한 서비스수준 기준을 산정하는 방법론을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 차두간격 분산계수 분포의 확률밀도를 기준으로 서비스수준의 기준을 산정하는 방법은 승객의 평균 대기시간을 적절하게 반영하고, 실제 버스 운행 자료를 사용하여 적용한 결과, TCQSM에서 제시한 방법보다 더 적절하게 버스의 운행 신뢰성을 평가하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 효용함수를 이용하여 서비스수준의 기준을 산정하는 방법은 이용자가 느끼는 서비스수준과 효용차이의 관계에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 본 연구의 한계로 남는다.

목 적: 나선형 토모테라피 방사선치료를 위한 환자별 품질관리용 라디오크로믹 필름 및 3차원 분석시스템인 Dosimetry CheckTM (DC, MathResolutions, USA)의 성능평가를 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법: 인체모형팬톰(Anderson Rando Phantom, USA)을 이용하여 위치 변이가 있는 3가지 형태의 복부 종양(130.6㎤), 복막 후면 종양(849.0㎤) 및 전 복부 전이 종양(3131.0㎤)을 모델링하였다. 조사면 고정너비(field width, FW)를 2.5-cm, 5.0-cm, 피치(pitch) 0.287, 0.43으로 하여 부위별 4개씩(plan01-plan04), 총 12개의 비교용 치료계획을 수립하였다. 이온전리함(1D)과 라디오크로믹 필름(Gafchromic EBT3, Ashland Advanced Materials, USA)을 치즈팬톰 내 삽입하는 방법(2D)과 빔 플루언스 로그정보를 이용하여 CT영상 위에 선량을 3차원으로 재구성하는 방식의 DC측정을 진행하였다. 스레드효과(thread effect)를 분석을 위해 리플(ripple) 진폭(%)를 계산하였고, 선량 분포의 패턴 분석을 위해 감마인덱스 분석(DD: 3%/DTA: 3mm, 합격 문턱 값: 95%)을 수행하였다. 결 과: 리플 진폭 측정 결과 복막 후면 종양이 평균 23.1%로 가장 높았다. 라디오크로믹 필름의 분석결과, 절대 선량 평균 1.0±0.9%, 감마인덱스분석 평균 96.4±2.2%로 95% 이상 통과하였으나 전 복부 전이 종양과 같이 넓은 부위 평가에 범위의 제한적이었다. 인체모형팬톰에 적용한 DC 분석결과 FW가 5.0-cm인 세 부위의 2D 및 3D 플랜 평균이 91.8±6.4%였다. 세 단면 및 선량 프로파일 분석을 통해 복막 후면 및 전 복부 종양 표적 전체 영역에 분석이 가능하였고, 선량-용적 히스토그램을 통한 계획 선량 대 측정의 선량 오차가 FW 및 pitch에 따라 커지는 것을 확인하였다. 결 론: DC측정방법은 별도의 측정기 없이 조사 중 측정된 빔 플루언스 로그정보만으로 3차원 환자 영상 데이터 위에 선량 오류를 구현할 수 있고 종양의 위치나 크기에 제한이 없어 크고 불규칙한 종양의 나선형 토모테라피의 치료 시 환자별 품질관리 성능이 매우 우수하며 활용도가 높을 것으로 생각한다.

A Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) model is proposed to eliminate the short-term voltage disturbances that occur in the grid-connected mode, the switching between grid-connected mode and the stand-alone mode of a Microgrid. The proposed DVR structure is based on a conventional cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter (MLI) topology; a novel composite control strategy is presented, which could ensure the compensation ability of voltage sag by the DVR. Moreover, the compensation to specified order of harmonic is added to implement effects that zero-steady error compensation to harmonic voltage in specified order of the presented control strategy; utilizing wind turbines-batteries units as DC energy storage components in the Microgrid, the operation cost of the DVR is reduced. When the Microgrid operates under stand-alone mode, the DVR can operate on microsource mode, which could ease the power supply from the main grid (distribution network) and consequently be favorable for energy saving and emission reduction. Simulation results validate the robustness and effective of the proposed DVR system.

A simulation method to estimate microstructure dependent material properties and their influence on performance for a honeycomb structured SiC heating element has been established. Electrical and thermal conductivities of a porous SiC sample were calculated by solving a current continuity equation. Then, the results were used as input parameters for a finite element analysis package to predict temperature distribution when the heating element was subjected to a DC bias. Based on the simulation results, a direction of material development for better heating efficiency was found. In addition, a modified metal electrode scheme to decelerate corrosion kinetics was proposed, by which the durability of the water heating system was greatly improved.

We present a novel schematic using a 3-dB coupler to transmit radiofrequency (RF) power to two receivers selectively. Whereas previous multiple receiver supporting schemes used hardware-switched methods, our scheme uses a soft power-allocating method, which has the advantage of variable power allocation in real time to each receiver. Using our scheme, we can split the charging area and focus the RF power on the targeted areas. We present our soft power-allocating method in three main points. First, we propose a new power distribution hardware structure using a FPGA (field-programmable gate array) and a 3-dB coupler. It can reconfigure the transmitting power to two receivers selectively using accurate FPGA-controlled signals with the aid of software. Second, we propose a power control method in our platform. We can variably control the total power of transmitter using the DC bias of the drain input of the amplifier. Third, we provide the possibility of expansion in multiple systems by extending these two wireless power transfer systems. We believe that this method is a new approach to controlling power amplifier output softly to support multiple receivers.

In some American English dialects, the vowels /a:/ or /c:/ have been replaced with /a:/, as in caught /ka:t/ dog /da:g/ that were pronounced in /kc:t/, and /dc:g/ previously. General American does not have /a:/ in its vowel system. But in East American and Western Pensylvania, cot and caught are homophones, /ka:t/, and similarly with other pairs such as collar vs. caller, stock vs. stalk, don vs. down, knotty vs. naughty. The use of /a/ or /c/ is quite unstable, and is a well-known diagnostic for distinguishing the northern speech area of the United States from the midland and southern area. For an increasing number of Americans, however, entirely lack the opposition between /a/ and /c/, merging to /a/, referring to 'both' of the vowels of lot. This paper investigates the use of /b:/ in American dialects and its relationship with /a:/, /c:/ in AE, and with short /a/ in RP. Examining the isoglosses of the use of /a:/ in various databases of the phonological atlas of North America, this paper discusses the use, position, and trend of merger to /a:/ from the vowels of /a:/ and /c:/ in Current American English.

Ultrasonic atomic force microscopy (Ultrasonic-AFM) has been used to investigate the elastic property of the ultra-thin coating layer in a thin-film system. The modified Hertzian theory was applied to predict the contact resonance frequency through accurate theoretical analysis of the dynamic characteristics of the cantilever. We coat 200 nm thick Aluminum and Titanium thin films on the substrate using the DC Magnetron sputtering method. The amplitude and phase of the contact resonance frequency of a vibrating cantilever varies in response to the local stiffness constant. Ultrasonic-AFM images were obtained using the variations in the elastic property of the materials. The morphology of the surface was clearly observed in the Ultrasonic-AFM images, but was barely visible in the topography. This research demonstrates that Ultrasonic-AFM is a promising technique for visualizing the distribution of local stiffness in the nano-scale thin coatings.

With the purpose of copyright protection for digital video, a novel H.264/AVC watermarking algorithm based on JND model is proposed. Firstly, according to the characteristics of human visual system, a new and more accurate JND model is proposed to determine watermark embedding strength by considering the luminance masking, contrast masking and spatial frequency sensitivity function. Secondly, a new embedding strategy for H.264/AVC watermarking is proposed based on an analysis on the drift error of energy distribution. We argue that more robustness can be achieved if watermarks are embedded in middle and high components of $4{\times}4$ integer DCT since these components are more stable than dc and low components when drift error occurs. Finally, according to different characteristics of middle and high components, the watermarks are embedded using different algorithms, respectively. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed watermarking algorithm not only meets the imperceptibility and robustness requirements, but also has a high embedding capacity.
