Al-N co-doped ZnO films were fabricated on n-Si (100) and homo-buffer layers in the mixture of oxygen and nitrogen at $450^{\circ}C$ by magnetron sputtering. Target was ZnO ceramic mixed with $2wt%Al_2O_3$. XRD spectra show that as-grown and $600^{\circ}C$ annealed films are prolonged along crystal c-axis. However they are not prolonged in (001) plane vertical to c-axix. The films annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ are not prolonged in any directions. Codoping makes ZnO films unidirectional variation. XPS show that Al content hardly varies and N escapes with increasing annealing temperature from $600^{\circ}C\;to\;800^{\circ}C$. The electric properties of as-grown films were tested by Hall Effect with Van der Pauw configuration show some of them to be p-type conduction.

The characteristics of the microcrack lengths(①), microcrack spacings(②) and Brazilian tensile strengths(③) related to the six directions of rock cleavages(H2~R1) in Geochang granite were analyzed. First, the 18 cumulative graphs for the above three major factors representing unique characteristics of the rock cleavages were made. Through the general chart for these graphs classified into three planes and three rock cleavages, the 28 parameters on the length, spacing and Brazilian tensile strength have been determined. The results of correlation analysis among these parameters are summarized as follows. Second, the above parameters were classified into six groups(I~VI) according to the sorting order on the magnitude of parameter values among three rock cleavages and three planes. The values of parameters belonging to group I and II are in order of R(rift) < G(grain) < H(hardway) and H < G < R. The values of the 8 parameters on the length of line(os₂, 𝚫s, 𝚫L and oS^mean), the exponent(λ_L^mean and λ_S^mean), the slope(a^mean) and the anisotropy coefficient (An^mean) are in order of R < G < H and H'(hardway plane) < G'(grain plane) < R'(rift plane). Third, the noticeable differences in distribution patterns among the six types of charts for three planes and three rock cleavages are as follows. From the chart for three planes, the values of 𝚫L, 𝚫s and 𝚫σ_t, corresponding to the distance between two points where the two fitting lines meet on the X-axis, increase in the order of R' < H' < G'. In particular, the two graphs of R2 and G2 related to the length and Brazilian tensile strength are almost parallel to each other and show the distribution characteristics of hardway plane. Among the graphs related to the Brazilian tensile strength, the overall shape for hardway plane is similar to that for grain. From the chart for three rock cleavages, the slopes of the graphs related to the length increase in the order of R < G < H, while those of the graphs related to the spacing and Brazilian tensile strength decrease in the order of R < G < H. Lastly, the characteristics of variation among the six rock cleavages, the three planes and the three rock cleavages were visualized through the correlation chart among the above parameters from this study.

Piecewise Integrated Composite (PIC) beam is composed of different stacking against loading type depending upon location. The aim of current study is to assign robust stacking sequences against external loading to every corresponding part of the PIC beam based on the value of stress triaxiality at generated reference points using the k-NN (k-Nearest Neighbor) classification, which is one of representative machine learning techniques, in order to excellent superior bending characteristics. The stress triaxiality at reference points is obtained by three-point bending analysis of the Al beam with training data categorizing the type of external loading, i.e., tension, compression or shear. Loading types of each plane of the beam were classified by independent plane scheme as well as total beam scheme. Also, loading fidelities were calibrated for each case with the variation of hyper-parameters. Most effective stacking sequences were mapped into the PIC beam based on the k-NN classification model with the highest loading fidelity. FE analysis result shows the PIC beam has superior external loading resistance and energy absorption compared to conventional beam.

In this paper, the comparisons between field measurments and numerical results ware performed for the settlements, lateral displacement in Jinwol interchange works on the Honam express way whose site was improved by sand drain for the constructions of over bridges, piers and abutments. The computer program was developed by coupling Biot's equation with Sekiguchi's elasto-viscoplastic model under plane strain conditions. Steel pipe piles for piers were replaced into the equivalent steel sheet pile wall. The characteristics of behavior for both the soil foundations and the sheet piles wall were investigated with the variation of axial force on the wall, rigidity of the wall, supported condition of sheet pile into hard strata and the location of anchored point.

The effect of specimen thickness on fatigue crack growth behavior has been carried out by compact tension specimens of thickness of 3mm, 10mm and 25mm for maraging steel and Al 7075-T6. The closure points were determined during the test by means of a clip-gage situated at the notch mouth. Specimen thickness have no apparent influence on the fatigue crack growth rate of maraging steel, but the crack growth rate of 25mm thickness specimen for Al 7075-T6 is faster than that of 3 and 10mm specimens. The difference of crack growth rates can be successfully explained by considering the different stress state of plane strain and plain stress due to the variation of specimen thickness. Also the crack opening ratio of 25mm specimen is greater than those of 3 and 10mm specimens. When a side groove is introduced in a 10mm specimen, the crack growth rate is approximately similar to that of 25mm specimen. The effective thickness expression of $B_e=B_o-(B_o-B_N)^2B_o$ is the most appropriate to evaluate the crack growth rate of side-grooved specimen. Fatigue crack growth rates can be well described by $\Delta K_{eff}$ of the crack closure points in regardless of all thickness and side-grooved specimens.

This paper studies thermal buckling and post-buckling behaviors of functionally graded materials (FGM) tubes subjected to a uniform temperature rise and resting on elastic foundations via a refined beam model. Compared to the Timoshenko beam theory, the number of unknowns of this model are the same and no correction factors are required. The material properties of the FGM tube vary continuously in the radial direction according to a power function. Two ends of the tube are assumed to be simply supported and in-plane boundary conditions are immovable. Energy variation principle is employed to establish the governing equations. A two-step perturbation method is adopted to determine the critical thermal buckling loads and post-buckling paths of the tubes with arbitrary radial non-homogeneity. Through detailed parametric studies, it can be found that the tube has much higher buckling temperature and post-buckling strength when it is supported by an elastic foundation.

SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor) drives require the accurate position information of the rotor. These informations are generally provided by a tacho generator or digital shaft-position encoder These speed sensors lower the system reliability and require special attention to noise. This paper describes a new approach to estimating SRM speed from measured terminal voltages and currents for speed sensorless control. The described method is based on the sliding mode observer. The rotor speed and position observers are estimated by the adaptation law using the real and estimated currents. However, the conventional adaptive sliding mode observer based on the variable structure control theory has some disadvantages that the estimated values including the high-frequency chattering and the steady state error generated due to the infinite feedback gain chosen and the discontinuous control input. To reduce the chattering and steady state error, an integrator is also inserted in the sliding mode observer strategy. The described adaptive sliding mode observer decreases the vibration to the switching hyper-plane of the sliding mode by adding integrator. The described methodology incorporates the Lyapunov algorithm to drive the rotor speed and the stator resistance such that it can overcome the problem of sensitivity in the face of SRM parameter variation. Also, without any mechanical information. The rotor speed of SRM is obtained form adaptive scheme. The described method is verified through the simulation and experiment.

We introduce the design technique and test results of a millimeter-wave compact antenna test range. Physical optics is employed for the analysis of the plane wave collimated by an electrical large parabolic reflector of the compact range in the test zone. The performance of the manufactured compact range is verified with the field probing test on the quiet zone and the measurement of high gain antenna. A millimeter-wave compact range designed in the frequency range of 75~110 GHz with a diameter of the test zone of 50 cm shows the magnitude variation of less than 0.75 dB.

This study addresses the optimal shape of a LCVA maximizing its vibration control effect through numerical parametric study. Various LCVAs having the same total mass and tuning frequency are designed with constraints on the dimensions and water level, and one obtaining the highest equivalent damping ratio of the controlled system is chosen as an optimal solution. As a result, it was found that the limit on the variation of the water level in the vertical liquid column plays an important role constraining the shape of the LCVA. As the LCVA width perpendicular to the plane of liquid motion increases, the equivalent damping ratio rises with slowdown so that determination of the proper width is important in design of the LCVA shape.

The Schwarzschild-Chang off-axis telescope is a "linear astigmatism-free" confocal system. The telescope comprises two pieces of aluminum-alloy freeform mirrors that are fabricated with diamond turning machine (DTM) process. We designed optomechanical structures where optical components in the telescope system can be adjustable on a linear stage. Optomechanical deformation caused by the weight of system itself and its temperature variation is analyzed by the finite element analysis (FEA). The results show that the deformation is estimated in the tolerance range. For the optic-axis alignment of telescope system, three-point alignment (TPA) method is chosen. The TPA method uses three parallel lasers and a plane mirror. Point source images were taken from collimated light and field observation. The performance of optical system was tested by point spread function and aberration measurement of the point sources.
