We developed a new standing wave type ultrasonic linear motor that can be driven bi-directionally. The operation principle of the motor was derived in an analytical form and the detailed structure was designed by the finite element method. Based on the design, a motor sample and a driving circuit were fabricated, and validity of the structure was verified through experiments.

This paper presents a new high-performance VLSI architecture and VLSI implementation for full-search block matching algorithm. The proposed VLSI architecture has the feature of two directional parallel and pipeline processing, thereby reducing the PE idle time at which the direction of block matching operation within the search area is changed. Therfore, the proposed architecture is faster than the existing architectures under the same clock frequency. Based on HSPICE circuit simulation, it is verified that the implemented procesing element is operated successfully within 13 ns for 75 MHz operation.

The suspension system of railway rolling-stock is composed of the primary and secondary suspension elements. Recently, a conical rubber spring is widely used as the primary suspension element due to the merits of the three directional stiffness characteristics. So, understanding the properties and characteristics of the conical rubber spring is very important from the viewpoint of vehicle stability and efficient maintenance. Thus, this study is started to acquire the basic data for maintaining spring elements efficiently. For this, we tested the conical rubber spring samples including a new and old specimen with aging. As a test result, we have obtained the property characteristics of the aged spring comparing with the new product and we describe the results.

Optical Switching Matrix (OSM) or Optical Multistage Interconnection Networks (OMINs) comprising photonic switches have been studied extensively as important interconnecting blocks for Optical Cross Connects (OXC) based on Optical Burst Switching (OBS). A basic element of photonic switching networks is a 2$\times$2 directional coupler with two inputs and two outputs. This paper is concerned with the diagnosis of multiple crosstalk-faults in OSM. As the network size becomes larger in these days, the conventional diagnosis methods based on tests and simulation become inefficient, or even more impractical. We propose a simple and easily implementable algorithm for detection and isolation of the multiple crosstalk-faults in OSM. Specifically. we develop an algorithm for isolation of the source fault in switching elements whenever the multiple crosstalk-faults arc detected in OSM. The proposed algorithm is illustrated by an example of 16$\times$16 OSM.

Flagellate bacteria such as Escherichia coli or Serratia marcescens possess a remarkable motility system based on a reversible rotary motor. We have employed S. marcescens as microactuators in low Reynolds number fluidic environments to move a larger engineering element around. Microstructures fabricated using conventional microfabrication techniques are blotted on the swarm plate, which leaves a bacterial monolayer on the surface of the microstructure. We have investigated microstructures powered by bacteria to determine how cell orientation on the microstructure surface relates to the swarming patterns as well as how the orientation is affected by the blotting process. This study will help to refine directional control of bacterial transporters by exploiting bacterial sensory mechanisms.

본 논문에서는 다수의 변환자 소자를 사용해서 빔을 역 초점화하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 64개의 소자를 사용해서 한 개의 소자에서 얻은 것과 거의 동일한 모양의 구면파를 얻을 수 있다. 이렇게 얻은 구면파는 합성집속에서 영상의 신호 대 잡음비를 높이는데 사용된다. 실험에서 제안된 방법은 영상의 해상도를 저하시키지 않고 신호대 잡음비를 크게 향상시킬 수 있음을 보여주었다. 특히 제안된 방법은 기존의 역초점화 방법에 의해 우수한 잡음 특성을 갖는다. 여기서 영상은 송수신의 양방향 빔집속에 의해서 얻었다.

To evaluate the aerodynamic efficiency of TR-S4 configuration, wind tunnel tests of 40% scaled model were done in KARI LSWT. TR-S4 configuration has different nacelle shape, larger EO/IR camera and aftward wing location compared with TR-S2. Component build-up test after adding each element of model is performed. Also effects of horizontal tail incidences, Flaperon and Aileron deflection. on aerodynamic characteristics are measured. Test results showed that TR-S4 configuration has favorable stability characteristics in longitudinal, lateral and directional for the pitch and yaw motions.

The most recent trend on digital hearing aid is to increase the ratio of signal to noise by directivity or to develop noise reduction algorithm inside DSP IC chip. This paper designed, fabricated and tested a digital hearing aid directivity testing device in which a micro-mouse-like the stepping motor with a speaker rotates around an examinant. Both ears of the examinant were fixed with ITE hearing aids in order to respond to receiving sound. The experimental results were compared with those of a boundary element method program for verification. The diameter of the directivity testing device was 2 m and the micro-mouse was precisely controlled by PICBASIC micro processor.

Typical Tonpilz type underwater acoustic transducers making use of piezoelectric ceramics detect the magnitude of an acoustic pressure, a scalar quantity, and convert this pressure into a proportional output voltage. The scalar sensor has no directional sensitivity. In this paper, we have proposed a new vector sensor based on the Tonpilz transducer structure, which is sensitive to both the magnitude and the azimuthal direction of an acoustic wave. Validity of this new design has been confirmed with analytic equations and finite element analyses.
