It has been estimated that the equivalent of approximately $US 50 billion has been spent on research on the behavior and fate of pesticides in the environment since Rachel Carson published “Silent Spring” in 1962. Much of the resulting knowledge has been summarized explicitly in computer algorithms in a variety of empirical, deterministic, and probabilistic simulation models. These models describe and predict the transport, degradation and resultant concentrations of pesticides in various compartments of the environment during and after application. In many cases the known errors of model predictions are large. For this reason they are typically designed to be “conservative”, i.e., err on the side of over-prediction of concentrations in order to err on the side of safety. These predictions are then compared with toxicity data, from tests of the pesticide on a series of standard representative biota, including terrestrial and aquatic indicator species and higher animals (e.g., wildlife and humans). The models' predictions are good enough in some cases to provide screening of those compounds which are very unlikely to do harm, and to indicate those compounds which must be investigated further. If further investigation is indicated a more detailed (and therefore more complicated) model may be employed to give a better estimate, or field experiments may be required. A model may be used to explore “what if” questions leading to possible alternative pesticide usage patterns which give lower potential environmental concentrations and allowable exposures. We are currently at a maturing stage in this research where the knowledge base of pesticide behavior in the environmental is growing more slowly than in the past. However, innovative uses are being made of the explosion in available computer technology to use models to take ever more advantage of the knowledge we have. In this presentation, current developments in the state of the art as practiced in North America and Europe will be presented. Specifically, we will look at the efforts of the ‘Focus’ consortium in the European Union, and the ‘EMWG’ consortium in North America. These groups have been innovative in developing a process and mechanisms for discussion amongst academic, agriculture, industry and regulatory scientists, for consensus adoption of research advances into risk management methodology.

Recently, a great deal of research is focused on the printed electronics. One of their mainly concerned products is printed RFID tag. RFID technology has attracted researchers and enterprises as a promising method for automatic identification, and they are expected to replace conventional bar codes in inventory tracking and management. The key to successful RFID technology lies in developing low-cost RFID tags and the first step in applying printing technology to RFID systems is to replace antennas that are conventionally produced by etching copper or aluminum. However, due to the printing quality variations, errors, and lower conductivity, the performance of the printed RFID antennas is lower than that of antennas manufactured by conventional etching methods. In this paper, the effect of variations in the printing conditions on the antenna performance is investigated. Three levels for each condition parameter is assumed and effect on the resonant frequency are examined experimentally based on orthogonal array. The most serious factor that affects the resonant frequency of the antenna is the non-uniformity of the edge and the resonant frequency is found to be lower as the non-uniformity increases.

Nationally, flatfish vaccination has been performed manually, and is a laborious and time-consuming procedure with low accuracy. The handling requirement also makes it prone to contamination. With a view to eliminating these drawbacks, we designed an automatic vaccine system in which the injection is delivered by a Cartesian coordinate robot guided by a vision system. The automatic vaccine injection system is driven by an injection site location algorithm that uses a template-matching technique. The proposed algorithm was designed to derive the time and possible angles of injection by comparing a search area with a template. The algorithm is able to vaccinate various sizes of flatfish, even when they are loaded at different angles. We validated the performance of the proposed algorithm by analyzing the injection error under randomly generated loading angles. The proposed algorithm allowed an injection rate of 2000 per hour on average. Vaccination of flatfish with a body length of up to 500mm was possible, even when the orientation of the fish was random. The injection errors in various sizes of flatfish were very small, ranging from 0 to 0.6mm.

The sediment delivery ratio (SDR) is widely used to estimate sediment loads by multiplying soil loss through the Revised Universal Equation (RUSLE). In this study, the SDR equation was developed for the Lake Imha watershed using soil loss calculated by RUSLE and sediment loads by the calibrated Hydrological Simulation. Program Fortran (HSPF). The ratio of watershed relief and channel length ($R_f/L_{ch}$), the ratio of watershed relief and watershed length ($R_f/L_b$), curve number (CN), area (A), and channel slope ($SLP_{ch}$) demonstrated strong correlations with SDR. SDR equations were developed by a combination of subwatershed parameters by referring to the correlation analysis. The area based power functional SDR developed in this study showed significant errors at the point right after entering major tributaries, because SDR was unrealistically reduced when the watershed area increased significantly. The $SLP_{ch}$-based power functional SDR also showed extraordinary values when the channel slope was gradual. The SDR equation that showed the highest value of the coefficient of determination also presented unrealistic changes in the sediment loads within a relatively short river distance. The SDR equation $SDR=0.0003A^{0.198}R_f/L{_w}^{1.167}$ was recommended for application to the Lake Imha watershed. Using this equation, sediment loads at the outlet of the Lake Imha watershed were calculated, and the HSPF parameters related to sediment in the uncalibrated subwatersheds were determined by referring to the sediment loads calculated with the SDR equation.

As the management of fuel efficiency becomes globally reinforced in attempts to find an environment-friendly vehicle that will operate against global warming, the interest in and the demand for the type of vehicle with a high-efficiency diesel engine using light oil. However, it also emits a greater amount of PM (particulate matter) and NOx than emissions from vehicles using other types of fuels. Therefore, the DME (Dimethyl Ether), an oxygen containing fuel draws attention as an alternative fuel for light oil that can be used for diesel engines since it generates very little smoke. But to develop and compare performance of an electric controlled common-rail DME engine, engine tests requires optimized injection conditions at required engine RPM and engine torque. These injection conditions cannot be set freely and the data configuration through the experimentally repeated application requires much time as well as a significant amount of errors and effort. The object of this study is to configure the basic injection map using the results of the DME engine experiments performed so far. For this, in this study, the functionalization of the required equations were performed along with the basic review of the factors that had influence on the data map. Through this, the information on the injection pressure, injection amount, injection duration, injection timing, etc. under certain operation condition could be obtained.

한정된 배터리 용량으로 장시간 모바일 시스템을 구동시키기 위하여 저전력 설계에 대한 요구가 높아지면서 PMIC(Power Management IC)의 핵심 부분인 LDO(Low Drop-Out) 레귤레이터의 설계에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Dongbu HiTek $0.5{\mu}m$ BCDMOS 공정을 이용하여 최적화 기법 중 하나인 기하 프로그래밍(Geometric Programming: GP)을 통해 외부 커패시터가 없는 LDO 레귤레이터의 성능을 최적화하였다. 계수가 양수인 단항식 (monomial)으로 모델링된 트랜지스터의 특성 파라미터들을 이용하여 안정도(stability)와 PSR(Power-Supply Rejection)과 같은 LDO 레귤레이터의 특성을 기하 프로그래밍(Geometric Programming: GP)에 적용 가능한 형태로 유도하였다. 위상 마진(phase margin)과 PSR 모델은 시뮬레이션 결과와 비교하였을 때 각각 평균 9.3 %와 13.1 %의 오차를 보였다. 제안한 모델을 사용하여 PSR 제약 조건이 바뀔 경우, 자동화된 회로 설계를 수행하였고, 모델의 정확도를 검증하였다. 본 논문에서 유도된 안정도와 PSR 모델을 이용하면 회로의 목표 성능이 변화하더라도 부가적인 설계 시간을 줄이면서 목표 성능을 가진 회로를 재설계하는 것이 가능할 것이다.
