This study deals with the development of an electrofusion welding machine that is capable of joining plastic pipes using a recently developed electrofusion fitting. This fitting has built-in conductive plastics that are used to weld the joint together as a heating element. In order to explain the mechanism of the new machine, 1) the resistance characteristics of the heating element were explained, 2) the method of electric welding that uses the electrofusion fitting was described, and 3) the method of power supply based on controlling the firing angle was explained. A control system for an intelligent electrofusion welding machine was proposed. This system has the ability to recognize the diameter of an electrofusion fitting using a lookup-table based on the difference of resistance curves according to fitting types, and it is able to weld the fittings regardless of the ambient temperature. A new algorithm was developed to control the power of electric welding through the recognition of feature points from the resistance curve of the heating element. In order to evaluate the performance of the developed welding machine, tests involving the welding of 16 mm- and 20 mm-type fittings were carried out. Examining the welding results, we concluded that the proposed welding machine will offer high productivity and reliability in the field of electrofusion welding.

In this study, the effect of residual stress on mechanical strength was investigated with 1 kind of whiteware body and 4 kinds of glazes which are produced in succeeding ceramic art place. Using dipping method, the body was coated for different times in order to manipulate the coating thickness and sintered in the different temperatures ($1200^{\circ}C$, $1250^{\circ}C$, $1300^{\circ}C$, $1350^{\circ}C$) for two thus hours. The sintered bodies were characterized by XRD, EPMA, FEM and UTM in order to study the forming of reaction layer between body and glazes, residual stresses and the effects of residual stresses on mechanical strength of pottery. At $1300{\circ}C$, we obtained maximum density and mechanical strength. By the finite element method, the residual stresses in surface of body were minimum in specific thickness of glazes and the mechanical strength of body in that thickness of glazes showed maximum when the firing temperature was settled.

3차 소성을 필요로 하는 전사지는 산업도자 분야의 식기류와 광고용 도자 제품들에 주로 사용되는데, 같은 형태의 제품일지라도 전사된 디자인에 따라 서로 다른 가격이 결정되므로 제품의 부가가치를 높이기 위한 중요한 기법으로 인식되고 있다. 제 2의 건축이라 불리는 리모델링은 노화된 건축물의 개조와 건축물에 대한 사회적 요구 기능의 변화에 기인한 것이다. 리모델링을 위한 타일은 공간의 성격에 부합되는 맞춤형 디자인을 전제로 하여, 수요자가 주문한 개성적인 타일 디자인을 경제적인 방법으로 제작하여 공기를 단축시키는 일이 무엇보다도 중요하다. 그러나 건축시장에서 유통되는 타일은 일반적으로 고가(高價)의 금형(金型)을 사용하여 완전자동화 시스템을 거쳐 대량생산되는 관계로 수요자의 요구를 충족시키지 못하고 있다. 그러므로 리모델링 시장을 겨냥하여 경제적인 가격으로 다양한 디자인의 타일을 제작하는 방법의 개발이 시급하다고 하겠다. 본 연구에서는 타일이 시공될 공간을 설정하여 전체 벽면의 타일 디자인을 먼저 한 다음, 그 전체 디자인에 포함된 개별적인 타일을 제작하는 방식으로 전사지 기법을 개발하고자 한다. 이를 통하여 리모델링에서 요구하는 타일의 기능적, 미적인 효과를 높일 수 있게 되기를 바라며, 다른 건축 재료들과 조화를 이루어 타일의 새로운 수요를 창출할 수 있게 되기를 바란다.

본 연구는 매곡토의 기본적인 특성과 점토물질 첨가에 따른 물리화학적 특성 변화를 분석하여 도자기 제작에 활용할 수 있는 흙에 대한 과학적 특성 정보를 제시하고자 하였다. 매곡토는 자갈과 굵은모래, 가는모래가 전체의 73%를 차지하여 수비과정을 거쳐야 태토로 사용이 가능하였으며, 수비 후에는 세사와 점토가 전체의 95%로 증가하였으나 가소성과 점력이 부족하여 분청토를 추가하여야 했다. 매곡토와 분청토를 7:3 비율로 혼합하였을 때는 점력이 증가하고, 소성 후에도 적당한 도자기 태토의 조직 특성을 보였으며, 흡수율이 0.40으로 감소하여 태토로써의 기능이 개선되었다. 따라서, 주변 흙으로 도자기를 제작하고자 할 때에는 수비와 같은 물리적 전처리를 거친 후 소성 시 기물로써 형태를 유지할 수 있도록 특정 성분이 포함되어 있는 점토 물질을 추가한다면, 본래 흙의 특성을 개선할 수 있다.

Misfiring is often observed during the high temperature quality assurancetest of plasma display panel. This limits the productivity of PDP industry. In this paper, experimental observations on the misfiring at high panel temperature have been performed through time dependent discharge light output and static margin measurement. For the high temperature condition, firing voltage increment is found in both surface and facing discharges. This in turn increases lime lag in address discharge, and results m increment of misfiring probability. In order to reduce this kind of misfiring, a new method that applies automatically different slope of ramp erasing pulse on the common electrode according to temperature variation is proposed. The experimental results show that controlling the slope of ramp erasing pulse is quite effective for compensating temperature-dependent variation of reset and address discharge.

COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) is a geostationary satellite and has been developing by KARI for communication, ocean and meteorological observations. It will be launched by ARIANE 5. Ka-band components are installed on South panel, where single solar array wing is mounted. Radiators, embedded heat pipes, external heat pipe, insulation blankets and heaters are utilized for the thermal control of the satellite. The Ka-band payload section is divided several areas based on unit operating temperature in order to optimize radiator area and maximize heat rejection capability. Other equipment for sensors and bus are installed on North panel. The ocean and meteorological sensors are installed on optical benches on the top floor to decouple thermally from the satellite. During the transfer orbit operation, satellite will be under severe thermal environments due to low dissipation of components, satellite attitudes and LAE(Liquid Apogee Engine) firing. This paper presents temperature and heater power prediction and validation of thermal control design during transfer orbit operation.

Dexmedetomidine, an imidazoline compound, is a highly selective ${\alpha}_2$-adrenoceptor agonist with sympatholytic, sedative, amnestic, and analgesic properties. In order to minimize the patients' pain and anxiety during minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) when compared to conventional surgery under general anesthesia, an adequate conscious sedation (CS) or monitored anesthetic care (MAC) should be provided. Commonly used intravenous sedatives and hypnotics, such as midazolam and propofol, are not suitable for operations in a prone position due to undesired respiratory depression. Dexmedetomidine converges on an endogenous non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep-promoting pathway to exert its sedative effects. The great merit of dexmedetomidine for CS or MAC is the ability of the operator to recognize nerve damage during percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy, a representative MISS. However, there are 2 shortcomings for dexmedetomidine in MISS: hypotension/bradycardia and delayed emergence. Its hypotension/bradycardiac effects can be prevented by ketamine intraoperatively. Using atipamezole (an ${\alpha}_2$-adrenoceptor antagonist) might allow doctors to control the rate of recovery from procedural sedation in the future. MAC, with other analgesics such as ketorolac and opioids, creates ideal conditions for MISS. In conclusion, dexmedetomidine provides a favorable surgical condition in patients receiving MISS in a prone position due to its unique properties of conscious sedation followed by unconscious hypnosis with analgesia. However, no respiratory depression occurs based on the dexmedetomidine-related endogenous sleep pathways involves the inhibition of the locus coeruleus in the pons, which facilitates VLPO firing in the anterior hypothalamus.

It is required to have the capability to predict the impact point of the ballistic target in order to assign the firing unit with high engagement possibility for the interception in the ballistic target defense systems. In this paper, a novel method is proposed to predict the impact point of the ballistic target using a flight phase discrimination algorithm given the insufficient measurements on the partial trajectory. The flight of a ballistic target is composed of a boost phase and a ballistic phase with different dynamics. The flight phase is discriminated by using the normalized innovation distance between measurements and a priori estimated measurements. The threshold and tolerance in the flight phase discrimination are determined from the probabilistic characteristics of the estimation error. Monte Carlo simulations are performed to verify the proposed method.

The Ag crystallite formed during the formation of the front electrode forms a contact between the metal of the electrode and the emitter of the cell. Contact between the electrode and emitter plays an important role in collecting electrons generated by the solar cell. Therefore, Ag crystallite formation is an important factor. In order for solar cells to have good characteristics, it is important to understand the factors influencing the Ag crystallite formation. Factors affecting the formation of Ag crystallites include Si emitter, morphology, Si defect and firing temperature. The influence of surface morphology on Ag crystallite formation was confirmed throughout this study. In the case of fine texturing, the Ag crystallites were formed at the pointed parts. The finer the texturing, the sharper areas and more Ag crystallites were formed. This was confirmed by SEM image and FF calculation.
