A high-frequency therapy device with improved output by modifying a high-frequency stimulator was fabricated. The details of the design include generating part design, high-frequency transformer design, large output FET installation, DC voltage input part design and gate input driver design. Based on the real test using the pork meat, the temperature distributions according to the current electric transfer method, penetration depth, electrode diameter size were measured. In the CET method, the penetration depth was 0.5 cm and in the RET method, the penetration depth was 20 cm or more. In addition, it was confirmed that the temperature rise according to the penetration depth in the RET system was substantially constant, and the temperature rise was remarkable as the electrode diameter was small. As a result, it has been confirmed that the high frequency therapy device is highly affected by various conditions of the electrode.

The frequency of extreme weather events was analyzed using meteorological data (air temperature, precipitation, and duration of sunshine) collected from 61 stations over a 36-year span (1981-2016). The 10-day meteorological data were used as a basic unit for this analysis. On average, the frequency of occurrence of abnormal weather was 9.88 per year and has increased significantly during this 36-year period. According to the type of abnormal weather, the frequencies of occurrence of abnormally high air temperature and short duration of sunshine have increased by 0.50 and 0.41 per 10 years, respectively; however, that for abnormally low air temperature has decreased by 0.31 per 10 years and the trend was statistically significant. The highest frequency of abnormal weather appeared in 2007, with a frequency of 14.31. Abnormal weather was the most frequent at Yeongdeok station with an average frequency of 11.78 per year over this 36-year span.

To develop a functionally graded microstructure of cylindrical liner, effect of centrifugal casting parameters such as pouring temperature of hyper-eutectic Al-Si alloy melt, mold pre-heating temperature, and rotational frequency of mold on distribution of primary Si particles across wall thickness were investigated. Segregation tendency of Si particles toward inner side of cylindrical liner increased as the increase of rotational frequency of mold, pouring temperature of melt and mold pre-heating temperature. Especially, distribution density of primary Si particles within 1.5 mm from inner surface of cylindrical liner was above 35% under the centrifugal casting condition of $750^{\circ}C$ melt pouring temperature, $300^{\circ}C$ mold pre-heating temperature, and 2500 rpm mold rotational frequency.

In this work, temperature stable frequency-to-voltage converter is proposed. In FVC circuit input frequency is converted into output voltage signal. A FLL is similar to PLL in the way that it generates an output signal which tracks an input reference signal. A PLL is built on a phase detector, a charge pump, and a low pass filter. However, FLL does not require the use of the phase detector, the charge pump and low pass filter. The FVC is designed by using $0.25{\mu}m$ CMOS process technology. From simulation results, the variation of output voltage is less than ${\pm}2%$ in the temperature range $0^{\circ}C\;to\;75^{\circ}C$ when the input frequency is from 70MHz to 140MHz.

In mobile communication instruments, realization of the frequency synthesizer with high stabililty in temperature is very important. In order to realize a high stability frequency synthesizer, the oscillator providing for reference frequency must be stabilized in various temperature. In accordance to this requirement, the TCXO using digital method is rrealized in this thesis. The DTCXO consists of temperature sensing part, control part and the VCXO. The frequency stability of the realized DTCXO is 0.94 ppm on average. This is an improved result when compared with the 2.5 ppm of the TCXO using analog method.

Optimal damping layout of the constrained viscoelastic damping layer on beam is identified with temperatures by using a gradient-based numerical search algorithm. An optimal design problem is defined in order to determine the constrained damping layer configuration. A finite element formulation is introduced to model the constrained damping layer beam. The four-parameter fractional derivative model and the Arrhenius shift factor are used to describe dynamic characteristics of viscoelastic material with respect to frequency and temperature. Frequency-dependent complex-valued eigenvalue problems are solved by using a simple resubstitution algorithm in order to obtain the loss factor of each mode and responses of the structure. The results of the numerical example show that the proposed method can reduce frequency responses of beam at peaks only by reconfiguring the layout of constrained damping layer within a limited weight constraint.

In the present study, temperature and frequency dependences of ultrasonic properties such as attenuation coefficient and phase velocity was investigated for six kinds of commercial MC-Nylon polymer samples. The ultrasonic properties of the samples were measured by using a pulse transmission method in water over a broadband frequency range of 2 to 8 MHz. Water temperature was varied from 10 to $60^{\circ}C$ with the $10^{\circ}C$ interval. The attenuation coefficients of the samples increased with the frequency and the exponent n of frequency dependence ranged within 1.16 to 1.44, slightly deviating from the linear dependence (n=1). The phase velocities of the samples exhibited negative dispersion, i.e., decreasing velocity with increasing frequency, except for ivory sample at $60^{\circ}C$. The frequency-dependent phase velocities of the samples showed the decreasing tendency with increasing temperature.

The objective of this paper is to assess the variability of modal properties caused by temperature effects and to adjust modal data used for frequency-based damage detection in plate-girder bridges. First, experiments on model plate-girder bridges are described. Next, the relationship between temperature and natural frequencies is assessed and a set of empirical frequency-correction formula are analyzed for the test structure. Finally, a frequency-based method is used to locate and estimate severity of damage in the test structure using experimental modal data which are adjusted by the frequency-correction formula. Here, local damage in beam-type structures is detected by using measured frequencies and analytical mode shapes.

High temperature low cycle fatigue crack growth behavior is investigated over a range of two temperatures and various frequencies in SUS 304 stainless steel. It is found that low frequency and temperature can enhance time-dependent crack growth. With high temperature, low frequency and long crack length, ${\Delta}J_c/{\Delta}J_ f$, the ratio of creep J integral range to fatigue J integral range is increased and time-dependent crack growth is accelerated. Interaction between ${\Delta}J_f$ and ${\Delta}J_c$ is occured at high frequency and low temparature and ${\Delta}J_c$, creep J integral range is fracture mechanical parameter on transition from cycle-dependent to time dependent crack growth in creep temperature region.

In this paper, a remote temperature sensor based on surface acoustic wave is introduced and the issues on design, manufacturing, and test of the sensor are addressed. SAW sensors having single and double electrode are prepared on the 128$^{\circ}$ YX-LiNbO$_3$ Substrate. The frequency responses of SAW sensors on the temperature change are compared. To measure the change of center frequency, two center frequencies on the 3dB and 20dB are measured and compared. Since the center frequency on the temperature change from -30$^{\circ}C$ to 80$^{\circ}C$ is linearly changed, the SAW sensor is applicable to the temperature sensor.
