Recently, the growth of applications and services over high-speed Internet increases, ATM networks as wide area back-bone has been a major solution. As the conventional TCP/IP suite is still the standard protocol used to support upper application on current. Internet, the issues regarding whether TCP/IP will operate efficiently on top of an ATM infrastructure and how to control its QoS still remain for studies. TCP uses a window-based protocol for flow control in the transport layer. When TCP uses the UBR service in ATM layer, the control method is only buffer management. If a cell is discarded in ATM layer, one whole packet of TCP will be lost; this fact occur the most TCP performance degradation. Several dropping strategies, such as Tail Drop, EPD, PPD, SPD, FBA, have been proposed to improve the TCP performance over ATM. In this paper, to improve the TCP performance, we propose a packet dropping scheme that is based on comparison with EPD, SPD and FBA. Our proposed scheme is applied to schemes discussed in the previous technology. Our proposed scheme does not need to know each connection's mean packet size. When the buffer exceeds the given threshold, it is based on comparison between the number of dropped packet and the approved packet. Our results are reported and discussed for comparing these discarding schemes under similar conditions. Although the number of virtual channel (VC) is increased, the simulation results showed that the proposed scheme can allocate more fairly each VC than other scheme.

Rolling bearings are assorted one of the most important machine elements. The various functions of bearings are greatly influenced by grease, and higher performance of rolling bearing greases is required to improve rolling bearing lubrication. The two conditions for optimum grease synthesis were selected by SSRED (Six Sigma Robust Engineering Design) program by using dropping points and OIT values respectively. And the optimized two urea/ether oil greases were synthesized to compare the performance. The typical physical properties of grease were investigated. And life test of these greases was conducted by rolling bearing grease life tester The characteristics of the greases before and after life test were investigated using FTIR, microscope, SEM, TG/DSC, OIT and TAN meter The optimized two greases showed longer life time than typical urea/ether oil grease. The optimized grease by means of OIT value showed higher performance such as long life time. low TAN value and high oil bleeding amount in comparison with the optimized grease using dropping point.

There are a number of ways to reduce the ground vibrations, one of which is by installing underground walls. Model tests for ground vibration have been conducted in recent years, but limited attention has been paid to underground wall which can reduce high vibrations. Up to date, only barriers have been actually installed in dry sand because of many unknown factors subsisting on the behavior of the ground. The characteristics of vibration sources, ground conditions and wall barriers have not been well understood yet, therefore centrifugal modeling was adopted to examine all these characteristics. This paper describes a ball dropping system, which can generate a pulse wave propagation through soil mass, and the test results show the effectiveness of underground wall barrier in reducing mechanical vibration.

This paper describes the acoustic emission measurement method to diagnose GIS for particles. We measured and analyzed the signals of acoustic waves using acoustic two types sensors with 125KHz and 50KHz resonant frequency respectively when the particles were dropped on the surfaces of circular plates and inside of GlS tanks. We found that the difference between peak outputs of two sensors depended on the types and materials of particles and the conditions of dropping position. These results showed that the outputs of 125KHz sensor were higher than those of 50KHz sensor in circular plate and 362㎸ GIS tank made of steel and vice versa in circular plate and 800㎸ GIS tank made of aluminum. The ratios outputs of 125KHz sensor to those of 50KHz sensor were 1.4 - 2.37 in 800㎸ GIS tank and were 0.5 - 1.0 in 362㎸ GIS tank. Therefore we knew that adaption of two types acoustic sensors which had different resonant frequencies as a very useful method in diagnosis of GIS.

The synthesis and characterization of silver colloidal nanoparticles by chemical reduction of silver ions in aqueous $AgNO_3$ using sodium borohydride $(NaBH_4)$ as the reducing agent are described. The experimental conditions for aggregation and paricle size of nanosilver particles in water is investigated in terms of concentration of $NaBH_4$, reaction temperature, dropping rate of $AgNO_3$ and concentration of laponite. Stable nanosilver sol is obtained at three molar ratio of $NaBH_4/AgNO_3$ in conditions of without laponite. The size of nanosilver particles is increased as the reaction temperature is increased. The large size of nanosilver sol is obseved as the dropping rate of $AgNO_3$ is increased due to the aggregation of initial high local concentration of nanosilver particles. Stable nanosilver sol at high temperature $(>\;100^{\circ}C)$ can be prepared when laponite is used as protective colloid.

Almost all concrete structures have many inevitable cracks for various reasons such as drying shrinkage, heat liberation of cement, fatigues or repeating loads and movements. Conventionally, they are repaired with epoxy materials. The Epoxy resins used by repair materials are different from properties of the base concrete materials such as thermal and mechanical properties - thermal expansion coefficients, bending strength. And the epoxy resin cannot release the water inside the concrete structure and cause corrosion of the steel bars. In this study, before the experiment got launched, we had analyzed cement and slag. Then We blended the two grades of ultra fine cement using high blaine cement and slag. And the cement slurry was produced by water and suprplasticizer to each blended ultra fine cement in various conditions. The slurry produced by each conditions was evaluated with flow properties such as viscosity, dropping time, segregation and observation of dry surface after injection.

With the contact angle of phase dropping epoxy resin on the inorganic filler(glass plate) surface treated with air plasma, we have studied about the interfacial wettability between epoxy resin and glass plate as a simple model of glass fiber reinforced composite materials. The contact angle on the inorganic filler surface varied with surface treatment conditions. The contact angle significantly depends on plasma treating time and environment temperature in the oven. From the view point of plasma treatment condition in this work, when discharge conditions were pressure 200mtorr, voltage 800V, magnetic flux density 8OGauss, optimum treatment time were proved as 3,4 and 5 minutes for the environment of >$80^{\circ}C$, >$100^{\circ}C$ and >$120^{\circ}C$, respectively.

We made a selection of engine operating conditions in the natural aspiration type diesel engine as load and speed. The effects on the power, smoke emission and cylinder pressure characteristics of these variations in operating conditions were observed experimentally. Also, the smoke emission was predicted by using the Arrhenius equation and empirical equation of the smoke emission was made. At the same time, the correlations, between the combustion and smoke emission characteristic were examined. From the above results, it is clear that to prevent power dropping and to decrease exhaust fume whin the conditions are changed, one should improve the intake system. To do this, the best way is to lower the air-fuel mixing ratio. We found that the parameters of the indicated mean effective pressure, maximum pressure and its location and combustion duration, etc. change the motion in accordance with the conditions described above. Also, we found that the variation of the pressure cycle comes from an amplified variation of the early part of process. From the analysis of comparing combustion and exhaust fume, the exhaust fume is produced at the latter time of combustion and decreased when the combustion ratio is higher. Also, we developed a special formula which can predict the exhaust fume value according to the engine load and speed.
