This paper is concerned with the design and implementation of magnetic damper system to reduce the vibration of suspension system actively. Cylindrical type electro-magnetic actuator with permanent magnet is analyzed and effective controller design is made. Magnetic force analyzed and transfer function for the total system is determined by experimental data using error minimization method. For experiments, simple suspension structure system is utilized, in which a magnetic damper composed of permanent magnet and digital controller is attached. In order to drive the system, bipolar power amplifier of voltage control type is utilized. Stable and high speed control board is used to perform digital control logic for the given system. This paper shows that the magnetic damper system using phase-lead controller excellently reduces vibration of 1-D.O.F (degree of freedom) suspension system.

When two layers of carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays are loaded to mate, the free ends of individual CNTs come into contact at the interface of the two layers. This leads to a higher contact resistance due to a smaller contact region. However, when the free CNT ends of one array penetrate into the mating array, the contact region increases, effectively lowering the contact resistance. To explore the penetration of mating CNTs, we perform molecular dynamic simulations of a simple unit cell model, incorporating four CNTs in the lower array layer coupled with a single moving CNT on the upper layer. The interaction with neighboring CNTs is modelled by long-range carbon bond order potential (LCBOP I). The model structure is optimized by energy minimization through the conjugate gradient method. A NVT ensemble is used for maintain a room temperature during simulation. The time integration is performed through the velocity-Verlet algorithm. A significant vibrational motion of CNTs is captured when penetration is not available, resulting in a specific vibration mode with a high frequency. Due to this vibrational behavior, the random behaviors of CNT motion for predicting the penetration are confirmed under the specific gap distances between CNTs. Thus, the probability of penetration is examined according to the gap distance between CNTs in the lower array and the aspect ratio of CNTs. The penetration is significantly affected by the vibration mode due to the van der Waals forces between CNTs.

This paper jointly investigates the bandwidth allocation, transmission strategy and relay positions for two-way transmission aware cellular networks with network coding (NC). Our goal is to minimize the transmission power of mobile terminals (MTs). Consider a cellular system, where multiple MTs exchange information with their common base station, firstly, we propose an efficient bandwidth allocation method and then give a transmission strategy for each MT to determine whether to use relay stations (RSs) for its two-way transmission with the BS or not. To further improve the system performance, the optimal positions of RSs are also jointly discussed. A GA-based algorithm is presented to obtain the optimum positions for RSs. Besides, the impacts of frequency reuse on MT's transmission power and system spectral efficiency (SE) under different number of relays are also discussed in our work. Numerical results show that the proposed NC aware scheme can extend MTs' battery life at least 6% more than traditional method.

On the basis of a structural analysis of radial gate (i.e. Tainter gate), the current paper focuses on weight minimization according to the location of the arms on a radial gate. In spite of its economical significance, there are hardly any previous studies on the optimum design of radial gate. Accordingly, the present study identifies the optimum position of the support point for a radial gate that guarantees the minimum weight satisfying the strength constraint conditions. This study also identifies the optimum position for 2 or 3 radial arms with a convex cylindrical skin plate relative to a given radius of the skin plate curvature, pivot point, water depth, ice pressure, etc. These optimum designs are then compared with previously constructed radial gates. Local genetic and hybrid-type genetic algorithms are used as the optimum tools to reduce the computing time and enhance the accuracy. The results indicate that the weights of the optimized radial gates are appreciably lower than those of previously constructed gates.

고속펄스 전송을 위한 다중결합된 마이크로스트립 신호버스에서 제일 근접한 선로상에 유기되는 누화피크치를 최소화시키기 위해 선로자태를 합성시키는 방법을 제안하였다. 평행하게 배열된 데이터버스에서 구동선로로부터의 누화에너지는 가장 근접한 선로에 거의 집중되므로 반사파 제어를 위한 최적화기법을 통해 선로간의 평균간격을 늘리는 방법을 채택하였다. 입출력 파형예측을 위해 일반화된 S-행렬 기법을 적용하였으며 선로간의 평균간격을 늘리기 위해 합성된 다양한 형태의 비일정선로의 누화특성을 비교 분석하였다. 그 결과 펄스가 갖는 주파수 범위내에서 스펙트럼을 고르게 반사시키게 하는, dip을 갖는 쳬비셰프형 테이퍼가 입출력 파형의 보전성에 큰 영향을 주지 않는 범위내에서 누화피크치를 최소로 함을 볼 수 있었다.

The formation of silicon-on-nothing (SON) structure during an annealing process from the silicon substrate including the trench structures has been considered as an effective technique to construct the structure that has an empty space under the closed flat surface. Previous studies have demonstrated the mechanism of the formation of SON structure, which is based on the surface diffusion driven by the minimization of their surface energy. Also, it has been fragmentarily shown that the morphology of SON structure can be affected by the initial design of trench (e.g., size, number) and the annealing conditions (e.g., temperature, pressure). Based on the previous studies, here, we report a comprehensive study for the design of the cavity-embedded structure (i.e., SON structure). To do this, a dynamic model has been developed with the phase field approach. The simulation results represent that the morphology of SON structures could be detailedly designed, for example the position and thickness of cavity, the thickness of top and bottom layer, according to the design parameters. This study will give us an advantage in the effective design of SON structures.

Supported Liquid Membranes (SLMs) have been widely studied as feasible alternative to traditional processes for separation and purification of various chemicals both from aqueous and organic matrices. This technique offers various advantages like active transport, possibility to use expensive extractants, high selectivity, low energy requirements and minimization of chemical additives. SLMs are not yet used at large scale in industrial applications, because of the low stability. In the present paper, after a brief overview of the state of the art of SLM technology the facilitated transport mechanisms of SLM based separation is described, also introducing the small and the big carrousel models, which are employed for transport modeling. The main operating parameters (selectivity, flux and permeability) are introduced. The problems related to system stabilization are also discussed, giving particular attention to the influence of membrane materials (solid membrane support and organic liquid membrane (LM) phase). Various approaches proposed in literature to enhance SLM stability are also reviewed. Modification of the solid membrane support, creating an additional layer on membrane surface, which acts as a barrier to LM phase loss, increases system stability, but the membrane permeability, and then the flux, decrease. Stagnant Sandwich Liquid Membrane (SSwLM), an implementation of the SLM system, results in both high flux and stability compared to SLM. Finally, possible large scale applications of SLMs are also reviewed, evidencing that if the LM separation process is opportunely carried out (no production of byproducts), it can be considered as a green process.

we studied the effect of the type of non-thermal plasma on the decomposition of $CF_4$. 3 types of reactors were manufactured to generate different types of plasma respectively, and went into the experiments. As the results, we found that high density of the energy of non-thermal plasma and the minimization of non-discharged area should be met in order to elevate decomposition rate of $CF_4$. Among the reactors used in the study, the hole-type reactor was such one that satisfying that requirement. Using the hole-type reactor, treatment efficiency for high concentration of $CF_4$ was excellent. We got decomposition rate of more than 95[%] between 500[ppm] around and less than 400[ppm], and up to 85[%] at 900[ppm].

지금까지 무선 센서 네트워크에서 에너지를 효율적으로 사용하기 위한 많은 라우팅 및 MAC 프로토콜들이 개발되어 왔다. 특히 에너지 효율적 센서 MAC 프로토콜들 중 Sensor-MAC (S-MAC) 프로토콜은 listen 시간과 sleep 시간을 주기적으로 반복하여, 데이터 전송이 없을 경우 노드의 통신 모듈을 Sleep시킴으로써 그 만큼의 에너지를 절약한다. 노드의 sleep시간이 길수록 더 많은 에너지를 절약할 수 있으나, 대신 sleep시간에 발생된 데이터는 다시 다음 주기의 listen시간이 시작될 때까지 지연되어야 한다는 단점이 있다. 이러한 데이터 전송 지연은 센서 네트워크에서 다양한 어플리케이션을 지원하기 위해 반드시 개선되어야 할 사항이다. 본 논문에서는 S-MAC의 listen/sleep 주기를 그대로 사용하여 에너지를 절약하면서도, 큰 오버헤드를 발생시키지 않고 데이터 전송시의 지연 시간을 최소화하는 기법에 대해 논의한다. 또한 시뮬레이션을 통해 기존의 S-MAC 및 Adaptive S-MAC 프로토콜과 지연시간 및 에너지 소비량을 비교하여, 제안된 기법이 지연시간을 감소시키면서도 기존 MAC 프로토콜들과 비슷한 에너지 소비량을 갖는다는 것을 증명하였다.
