현재 많은 사람들의 관심을 받고 있는 유비쿼터스 시스템(Ubiquitous System)이 주는 가장 큰 이점은 언제 어디서나 원하는 서비스를 사용할 수 있는 것이다. 따라서 이를 사용가능하게 하기 위해서는 유비쿼터스 시스템이 무선네트워크를 지원하여야 하며 또한 소형의 장치로 사용자가 간편하게 사용할 수 있어야 한다. 그러나 이러한 특성들로 인하여 유비쿼터스 시스템은 네트워크 불량, 자원 부족 등과 같은 문제점을 가지고 있으며 이것은 사용자 서비스의 질과 직접적으로 연결된다. 더욱이 이것으로 인하여 사용자가 서비스 사용에 불편을 겪는다면 유비쿼터스 시스템 사용에 대한 신뢰도는 떨어질 것이다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해서는 유비쿼터스 시스템에서 일어날 수 있는 결함을 분석하고 이에 대한 적절한 조치를 취하여 사용자가 서비스를 사용하는데 있어서 불편을 초래하지 않아야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 유비쿼터스 시스템에서 사용될 수 있는 결함 분석기를 개발하였으며 또한 실제로 유비쿼터스 시스템 관리 유틸리티에 적용하였다. 본 결함 분석기에서는 메모리 결함, 배터리 결함, 네트워크 결함, 및 heartbit 결함에 대하여 정의하고 결함을 감지할 수 있도록 하였으며 또한 Java Exception 메시지를 이용하여 조기에 결함을 분석할 수 있도록 개발하였다.

This paper deals with the shaking table test(STT), the Quasi-Static Test(QST), and the Pseudo-Dynamic Test(PDT) to evaluate the seismic performance of RC bridge piers under near fault ground motion. Five scaled specimens were constructed the weight of the superstructure was applied through the prestressing strand at the centroid of the column section during the QST and PDT. However, the STT was simulated. The lateral inertia force of the superstructure by the mass frame which was linked with the pier because of the limited payload of shaking table. Particularly for the STT, friction underneath the mass frame was minimized by special details and it was verified by a series of pre-load test. Scale factor of the RC piers was 4.25.

This paper proposes the new voltage event detection method using the weight factor of neural network and describes control system design for the DVR(Dynamic Voltage Restorer) consisted of a rectifier and series inverter applied to 22.9kV distribution system. As this method can express the fault level of each phase, we expect the proposed method can make up for disadvantage of synchronous detection method. Also, in this paper, the control system was designed using double deadbeat controller, As it has an inner current control loop and an outer voltage control loop, we can easily limit the current level during the transient intervals by using the current control loop. Simulation and experiment are performed to prove the analysis of the voltage event detection method and double deadbeat controller.

The impacts of waste tire rubber (WTR) on the bending conduct of reinforced concrete beams (RCBs) are investigated in visualization of experimental tests and 3D finite element model (FEM) using both ANSYS and SAP2000. Several WTR rates are used in total 4 various full scale RCBs to observe the impact of WTR rate on the rupture and bending conduct of RCBs. For this purpose, the volumetric ratios (Vf) of WTR were chosen to change to 0%, 2.5%, 5% and 7.5% in the whole concrete. In relation to experimental test consequences, bending and rupture behaviors of the RCBs are observed. The best performance among the beams was observed in the beams with 2.5% WTR. Furthermore, as stated by test consequences, it is noticed that while WTR rate in the RCBs is improved, max. bending in the RCBs rises. For test consequences, it is clearly recognized as WTR rate in the RCB mixture is improved from 0% to 2.5%, deformation value in the RCB remarkably rises from 3.89 cm to 7.69 cm. This consequence is markedly recognized that WTR rates have a favorable result on deformation values in the RCBs. Furthermore, experimental tests are compared to 3D FEM consequences via using ANSYS software. In the ANSYS, special element types are formed and nonlinear multilinear misses plasticity material model and bilinear misses plasticity material model are chosen for concrete and compression and tension elements. As a consequence, it is noticed that each WTR rates in the RCBs mixture have dissimilar bending and rupture impacts on the RCBs. Then, to observe the impacts of WTR rate on the constructions under near-fault ground motions, a reinforced-concrete building was modelled via using SAP2000 software using 3-D model of the construction to complete nonlinear static analysis. Beam, column, steel haunch elements are modeled as nonlinear frame elements. Consequently, the seismic impacts of WTR rate on the lateral motions of each floor are obviously investigated particularly. Considering reduction in weight of structure and capacity of the members with using waste tire rubber, 2.5% of WTR resulted in the best performance while the construction is subjected to near fault earthquakes. Moreover, it is noticeably recognized that WTR rate has opposing influences on the seismic displacement behavior of the RC constructions.

Lightweight aggregate for concrete was manufactured from recycling the waste PET bottles (PET Bottle Lightweight Aggregate, LAPET). The qualities of LAPET and its mortar were investigated. Specific gravity and unit weight of LAPET was very low in comparison with river sand like as 1.39, 844 kg/㎥ respectively. In addition, compressive strength of concrete significantly decreased because of specific gravity of aggregate decreased with increases in containing ratio. When LAPET was contained to 25% and 50％ of river sand, compressive strength of concrete at 28 days was indicated more 30MPa. Most of LAPET was generally showed to round shape and fluidity of mortar increased significantly due to sleeking the surface texture of LAPET. On the other hand, capillary absorption of mortar with LAPET was greatly increased in comparison with that of mortar without LAPET because of LAPET was composed of singular gradation. Absorption of LAPET was 0％ because the interior structure of LAPET consists of PET like as organic high polymer. Therefore the fault of normal lightweight aggregate, absorption, will be improved. It could expect several advantages that the pollution of environment will be previously prevent and the waste resources could be recycled if LAPET is reused as aggregate for Lightweight concrete.

As the portable electronic equipments are developed and popularized, the batteies are more important. To prolong life of the equipments, engineers demand to have batteries of high-power density and they are used to use Li-ion batteries popularly Li-ion batteries are better than conventional batteries, Ni-cd, about power density per volume and weight, but they have a fault that discharge voltage of them goes down. In order to maximize life of the Li-ion batterries, we have to use a converter which is suitable for the characteristic of Li-ion batteries. Therefore, capacitive idling SEPIC(Single Ended Primary Inductance Converter) that is derived from the SEPIC topology is proposed as a source of the Portable low-power applications. The converter has characteristics of buck-boost porformance. Besides, that makes it possible to increase the switching frequency by partial soft commutation of power switches through adding a diode and a switch. This paper is presented the characteristics, DC voltage conversion ratio, circuits of operation modes, of the converter and it is analized and implemented.

In this paper, we present the design methodology of KASCOM(KAIST satellite computer), the experimental on-board computer system of KITSAT-2. The design of the on-board computer system should consider the following constraints: operational throughput, fault tolerant input-output, low power, size, weight, and radiation hardness. KASCOM is designed to satisfy these constraints. This paper also presents the implementation and testing details of KASCOM. Finally, the in-orbit operational results are presented. The results show that about 2 SEU errors occur for the program memory(1Mbit SRAM) in a day, while 3.7 SEU errors occur for the data memory(4Mbit SRAM). This implies that high-integrated memories are more susceptible to the radiation environment than low-integrated memories.

The most frequent occurring and the serious marine casualties in fishing vessels are the collision in statistics from Korea Maritime Safety Tribunal (2008-2015). Collisions are is given a great deal of weight in all marine casualties, and the main cause of collisions is the negligence of watching. From this point of view, this study deals with the collision and its immediate cause, the negligence of watching which are main factors on the indirect causes. Basic analyzing data was gathered from the questionnaire made by experts of sea service part, and analyzed by using the fault tree analysis (FTA). From the result of the study, the occurrent probability of the negligence of watching in the collision due to the indirect causes occupied 64.9%, and its probability caused by the man factors was less than the other factors; i.e. the media factors and the management factors. For the reduction of the negligence of watching in the collision from this study, it needs an effort to remove not only the man factors, but also the media factors and management factors.

In this paper, a novel method of equalization of RF transceivers is suggested for MIMO(Multiple Input Multiple Output) antenna actively studied for high speed data transmission in the recent IMT-2000 system. The core of suggestion is in equalizing the transfer characteristics of multiple transceivers using feedback and memory during the predefined calibration time. This makes it possible to weight the signals in the intermediate frequency, which is easier in the application of recently developed DoA(Direction of Arrival) algorithms. In addition, the time varying optimum cell formation according to traffic is feasible by antenna beam-forming based on the DoA information. The suggested method of equalizing multiple transceivers are successfully verified using envelope simulation. two outputs.
