The flexibility of long reach manipulators presents a difficult control problem when accurate end-point position is required. Input shaping by convolving system commands with impulse sequences has been shown to be an effective method of reducing residual vibrations in flexible systems. However, existing shapers has been considered robustness for only frequency uncertainty. However, this paper presents new multi-hump convolution(CV) input shaper that could accommodate with the simultaneous variation of natural frequency and damping ratio. Comparisons with previously proposed input shapers are presented to illustrate the qualities of the new input shaper. These new shapers will be shown to have better robustness for the variation of frequency and damping ratio.

디스플레이 화소 스위치 소자로 수소화된 비정질 실리콘 박막 트랜지스터를 금속 산화물 반도체 박막 트랜지스터(thin film transistor, TFT)로 대체하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 금속 산화물 중에서 박막 트랜지스터의 활성층으로 응용이 가능한 가장 대표적인 물질은 인듐(In), 갈륨(Ga), 아연(Zn), 산소(O) 화합물인 InGaZnO이다. InGaZnO TFT의 전기적 특성은 비정질 실리콘보다 우수한 것으로 확인이 되었지만, 소자의 신뢰성은 아직까지 해결해야 할 문제로 남아있다. 본 연구에서는 InGaZnO TFT를 제작하여 게이트 바이어스와 빛을 소자에 동시에 인가했을 때 발생하는 소자의 열화현상을 분석하였다. 다양한 채널 폭과 길이를 갖는 InGaZnO TFT를 제작하고 동시에 활성층의 구조를 두가지로 제작하였다. 첫번째는 활성층의 폭이 소오스/드레인 전극 폭보다 넓은 구조(active wide, AW)이고 두번째는 활성층의 폭이 소오스/드레인 전극 폭보다 좁은 구조(active narrow, AN) 구조이다. 이들 소자에 대해 +20 V의 게이트 바이어스와 빛을 동시에 인가하여 10000초 후의 소자 특성을 초기 특성과 비교하였을 때는 열화가 거의 발생하지 않았다. 반면 -20 V의 게이트 바이어스와 빛을 동시에 인가하여 10000초 후의 소자 특성을 초기 특성과 비교하면 전달특성 곡선이 음의 게이트 전압 방향으로 이동함과 동시에 문턱전압이하의 동작 영역에서 전달특성 곡선의 hump가 발생하였다. 이 hump 특성은 AW 구조의 소자와 AN 구조의 소자에서 나타나는 정도가 다름을 확인하였다. 이러한 열화 현상의 원인으로 음의 게이트 바이어스와 빛이 동시에 인가될 경우 InGaZnO 박막 내에는 활성층 내에 캐리어 밀도를 증가시키는 donor type의 defect가 발생하는 것으로 추정할 수 있었다. 추가적으로 활성층의 테두리 영역에서는 이러한 defect의 발생이 더 많이 발생함을 알 수 있었다. 따라서, 활성층의 테두리 영역이 소오스/드레인 전극과 직접 연결이 되는 AN 구조에서는 hump의 발생정도가 AW 구조보다 더 심하게 발생한 것으로 분석되었다.

The device reliability in amorphous InGaZnO under NBS(Negative Bias Stress) and hot carrier stress with different gate overlap has been characterized. Amorphous InGaZnO thin film transistor has been measured. and is channel $width=104{\mu}m$, $length=10{\mu}m$ with gate overlap $length=0,1,2,3{\mu}m$. The device reliability has been analyzed by I-V characteristics. From the experiment results, threshold voltage variation has been increased with increasing of the gate overlap length after hot carrier stress. Also, threshold voltage variation has been decreased and Hump Effect has been observed later with increasing of the gate overlap length after NBS.

This study defines influencing sections as the part of the road section where passing vehicles are traveling with the lower speed compared to speed limit due to speed humps. The influencing section was divided into 3 parts; influencing section before the speed hump, interval section, and influencing section after the speed hump. This analysis focused on the changes of each part depending on installation types, vehicle types, and daytime or nighttime. For the interval section, especially, the ratio of distance traveled with lower speed than speed limit to interval section is defined as effective influencing section ratio to be analyzed. Vehicle speed profiles were collected with a speed gun to extract influencing section lengths. The survival analysis was applied and estimated survival functions are compared with each other by several statistical tests. As a consequence, the average length of influencing section on the 50m sequential speed humps was 75.3% longer during the deceleration than that of isolated speed hump, and 18.9% during the acceleration. The effective influencing section ratio for the 30m and 50m sequential speed humps had a small difference of 81.0% and 76.0% while the absolute values of the section that passing speed were less than the speed limit were longer on 50m sequential speed humps, each being 24.3m and 38.0m. Using the log rank test, it was evident that sequential speed humps were more effective to increase the length of influencing sections compared to the isolated speed hump. Vehicle type was the strong factor for influencing section length on the isolated speed hump, but daytime or nighttime was not the effective one. This research result can be used for improving the efficiency selecting the installation point of speed humps for road safety and estimating the standard of the distance between sequential speed humps.

In order to investigate the Post-operative changes in scoliotic spine according to selection of fusion level a mathematical finite element model of King-Moe type II scoliotics spine system was developed. By utilizing this finite element scoliosis model surgical correction simulation procedures of pedicle fixation and derotation were simulated. In consequence of the calculation by changing the fusion Levels, postoperative changes like Cobb angle, apical vertebrae axial rotation (AVAR), thoracic kyphosis, and rib hump were Qualitatively analyzed. In the analysis of operative kinematics, the decrease or Cobb angle was most prominent in distraction than in deroation. Applying the rod derotation only was not effective in decrease of Cobb angle but just caused increase of At AR and rib hump. From the operative simulation, co-action or distraction and translation during rod insertion has major impact on Cobb angle decrease and maintenance of kyphosis. With rod rotation, Cobb angle decrease was obtained, but combined increase of AVAR and rib hump was simulation observed as well. The case of most extended instrumentation range with 60o rod rotation produced double decrease of Cobb angle, but the increase of rib hump and AYAR occurred corresponding1y. The optimum selection of fusion level was proved as one level less than inflection position of the thoracic spine curvature.

This study was conducted to evaluate the characteristics of installation dimensions of speed control humps based on the theoretical dynamic analyses. The field surveys of speed control humps were performed first to compare their sizes with those suggested in the installation standard. Then, the displacement response spectra under impact loads were obtained using the single degree of freedom models where the vehicle and human were assumed to combine completely. The analysis results showed that the human perception became larger as the width and height of the humps increased, but the extremely higher uncomfortableness should be avoided. In addition, the ratio between the width and height should be considered when the humps are designed and installed because the ratio governs the vertical acceleration magnitude.

Altitudinal patterns of plant species richness and the effects of area, the mid-domain effect, climatic variables, net primary productivity and latitude on observed richness patterns along the ridge of the Baekdudaegan Mountains, South Korea were studied. Data were collected from 1,100 plots along a 200 to 1,900 m altitudinal gradient on the ridge. A total of 802 plant species from 97 families and 342 genera were recorded. Common and rare species accounted for 91% and 9%, respectively, of the total plant species. The altitudinal patterns of species richness for total, common and rare plants showed distinctly hump-shaped patterns, although the absolute altitudes of the richness peaks varied somewhat among plant groups. The mid-domain effect was the most powerful explanatory variable for total and common species richness, whereas climatic variables were better predictors for rare plant richness. No effect of latitude on species richness was observed. Our study suggests that the mid-domain effect is a better predictor for wide-ranging species such as common species, whereas climatic variables are more important factors for range-restricted species such as rare species. The mechanisms underlying these richness patterns may reflect fundamental differences in the biology and ecology of different plant groups.

동해를 전파하는 지진해일은 세계적으로 다른 지역에서 발생하는 지진해일과 비교하였을 때 상대적으로 파장이 짧고, 이에 비해 먼 거리를 전파한다. 그러므로 동해에서 발생한 지진해일의 전파에 대한 해석을 수행할 때 물리적인 분산효과가 매우 중요하다. 따라서 지배방정식으로 분산 효과가 충분히 고려된 선형 Boussinesq 방정식을 사용한다. 기존의 연구에서는 leap-frog 기법을 사용하여 선형 천수방정식을 차분할 때 발생하는 수치분산항에 분산 보정계수를 이용하여 선형 Boussinesq 방정식의 물리적 분산항과 같은 형태로 나타나도록 유도하여 수치모의를 수행하였다. 그러나 기존에 사용한 지배방정식은 수심이 일정하다는 가정을 통하여 유도된 것으로, 수심에 변화가 있는 실제 지형을 통과하는 지진해일에 대한 수치모의를 수행한 결과의 정확도에 문제가 생길 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 연구에서 발생할 수 있는 수심 변화에 따른 오류를 개선하기 위하여 바닥 지형이 1차원으로 변한다는 가정을 이용하여 지배방정식을 유도하였으며, 이로 인해 발생하는 수심 변화가 고려된 항을 기존의 분산보정기법에 추가하였다. 그리고 적용성을 높이기 위하여 수치모의 기법의 제한을 최소화하는 연구를 진행하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 수정 기법이 수심이 변화하는 지형을 전파하는 지진해일 수치모의 과정에서 경사에 대한 분산효과가 충분히 고려되는지 확인하기 위하여 Gaussian hump를 이용한 가상 지진해일을 원형 천퇴 지형에 통과시켰다. 본 연구에서 사용한 지형을 통과하는 Gaussian hump에 대한 해석해를 구하는 방법이 존재하지 않으므로, Boussinesq 방정식을 직접 차분하여 푸는 FUNWAVE를 사용하여 동일한 조건 하에서 수치모의를 수행하였다. 비교 결과를 통하여 본 연구에서 제안한 기법의 정확도 향상을 확인하게 되면, 실제 지형을 통과하는 지진해일의 수치모의에 대한 활용성을 높일 수 있을 것이다.

In order to calculate reflection coefficients of surface waves due to underwater obstacles, the hybrid boundary integral equation method is used. Numerical results based on the linear element are verified to the exact solutions for a flat bottom. Reflection coefficient and transmission coefficients for a step are compared to Young's results and the results by EFEM (Kirby et al., 1987), in which reflection coefficients decrease to zero as the periods of incident waves decrease. Reflection coefficients for a sinusiodal hump located on a constant depth increase due to the interaction between humps.
