Silica which is used for reinforcing filler in tire industry is widely known as eco-friendly material exerting $CO_2$ reduction effect through decrease of rolling resistance and improvement of wet grip. Generally silica is classified as a highly polar filler because it contains a large number of silanol (Si-OH) group on its surface. And also silica gives a lower reinforcing effect than carbon black due to its poorer rubber-filler interaction. Therefore silica is treated with silane coupling agent or activator, then following the conventional rubber blend method, vulcanized sheets were prepared using a hot press, and cure characteristics, mechanical properties and abrasion resistance of the test specimens were investigated. It was found that with an increase in the silane coupling agent content the tensile strength, 300% modulus and abrasion resistance increased while Mooney viscosity decreased and crosslink density slightly increased with an increase of activator.

An experimental study was conducted to investigate the effects of a leading edge extension(LEX) on the vortex flow field over a delta wing by measuring the total pressure distribution in a subsonic wind tunnel. Freestream velocity was 40m/sec and Reynolds number per meter was $1.76{\times}10^6$. The wing with the LEX experienced a strong interaction between the LEX and wing vortices. As the angle of attack increased, the coupled vortex field of these two vortices maintained its strength and concentricity much better than the vortex field over the wing without the LEX.

Optical interconnections are more attractive than electronic interconnections because of their higher speed, freedom from planar constraints, immunity to electromagnetic interference effects and higher interconnection capacity. Volume hologram is one of the best way to implement optical interconnections. Diffraction efficiency and crosstalk effect are very important things for ensuring independent interconnections. Recently, a general systematic method that can handle a large number of superposed volume gratings in anisotropic host material is presented. In this study for numerical analysis of diffraction, above method is programmed in general form near Bragg angle. Diffraction orders for variation of grating strength are determined by comparing with the coupled-mode method. The effects of parameter variation are considered. Parameters include vertical and azimuthal incident angle, wavelength and interaction length. Diffraction analyses are also performed for intra-mode and inter-mode diffractions.

우리나라는 2018년 고령자 인구가 전체인구의 14.4%를 차지하여 고령사회(aged society)로 진입하였고 2026년에 초고령사회로 진입할 예정이다. 특히, 2050년에는 고령자 인구가 전체 인구의 38%로서 고령자 수가 세계에서 가장 많은 나라 중에 하나가 될 것으로 예측되고 있다[1]. 고령자 인구의 증가는 자연스럽게 고령 운전자의 교통사고 증가로 이어지고 있는데, 2017년 우리나라 교통사고 가운데 65세 이상 고령 운전자 교통 사고는 2만 6,713건으로 848명이 사망하고 부상자 3만 8,627명이 발생했다. 2011년과 비교하면 사고 건수와 부상자 수는 약 2배, 사망자 수는 1.4배 증가했다[3]. 본 연구는 교통사고 증가의 주된 요인이 시각/청각 능력의 저하, 인지 및 정보처리 능력의 저하, 근력의 저하 등 고령운전자의 특성에 의한 것이라고 판단하였다. 이에 운전의 부담을 최소화할 수 있는 고령운전자를 위한 자율주행차량(레벨2)의 필요성을 제기하였으며, 새로운 기술에 익숙하지 않은 고령운전자를 위한 자율주행차량 기능을 연구하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 바탕으로 도로환경에 따른 명료한 정보 제공/운전자의 물리적 신체 특성 고려/단순한 인터페이스/차량내 안전장치의 보강이라는 고령운전자를 위한 자율주행차량의 4가지 기능을 도출하였다.

The flow characteristics and the heat transfer rate on a surface by interaction of a pair of vortices were studied experimentally. The test facility consisted of a boundary-layer wind tunnel with a vortex introduced into the flow by half-delta wings protruding from the surface. In order to control the strength of the longitudinal vortices, the angles of attack of the vortex generators were varied from - 20 degree to - 45 degree, but spacings between the vortex generators were fixed to 4 cm. The 3-dimensional mean velocity measurements were made using a five-hole pressure probe. Heat transfer measurements were made using the thermochromatic liquid to provide the local distribution of the heat transfer coefficient. Unlike common flow down, common flow up vortices moved toward the centerline as they developed and interacted strongly with each other but not with the boundary layer. Spanwise profiles of Stanton number were similar for ${\beta}=-20^{\circ}\;and\;-35^{\circ}$, but not similar for ${\beta}=-45^{\circ}$. The case of ${\beta}=-20^{\circ}\;and\;-35^{\circ}$ showed the two peak Stanton number, but the case of ${\beta}=-45^{\circ}$ showed the only one peak Stanton number.

기능성 헤테로 고리 화합물의 구조 이성질체를 정상 및 역상 액체 크로마토그래피를 이용하여 분리하고, 이들 분리를 위한 최적 조건을 알코올 변형체(modifier)를 포함한 삼성분 이동상(ternary solvent system)을 이용하여 조사했다. 삼성분 이동상의 경우 알코올 변형체가 컬럼의 활성 표면에 우선적으로 상호작용하여 비활성화(deactivation)시킴으로써 용질의 머무름을 감소시키고 꼬리 끌림(tailing)을 억제하여 분리선택성이 좋아지는 것으로 보인다. 구조 이성질체 분리의 경우 정상 액체 크로마토그래피를 이용할 경우가 분리 선택성이 더 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 헤테로 고리 화합물들의 머무름 거동은 역상 액체 크로마토그래피의 경우는 시료와 정지상과의 소수성 상호작용등으로 설명할 수 있었고, 정상 액체 크로마토그래피의 경우는 시료 분자와 충진제의 흡착표면과의 흡착력으로 설명할 수 있었다.

The transition metal salt doped solid polymer electrolyte [TSPE] were prepared with HPMC as a host polymer. The virgin and doped films were prepared by solution-casting method and investigated using wide angle X-ray scattering method. Micro structural parameters like lattice strain (g%), stacking/twin faults, the average number of unit cells counted in a direction perpendicular to the Bragg's plane (hkl) spacing of (hkl) planes dhkl, crystallite size Ds, distortion width, standard deviation were determined by whole pattern powder fitting (WPPF) method, which is an extension of single order method. It is found that the crystallite size decreases with the increase in the content of $FeCl_3$. This decrease is due to increase in localized breaking of polymer network which also accounts for the amorphous nature of the material. The filler inorganic salt $FeCl_3$ acts as plasticizer. FTIR study also confirms and justifies the interaction between the polymer and in-organic salt in the matrix. Physical properties like mechanical stability and Ac conductivity in these films are in conformity with the X-ray results.

DGPS/Radio beacons are currently being planned or installed in many countries. They offer a cost-effective way of distributing differential data to large number of users. These networks are also being deployed in South Korea, Japan, and China. Several DGPS stations among them are operating on the same frequencies. The DGPS signal based on a radio beacon in medium frequency band travels principally as a groundwave over the surface of the earth. The signal may also be received as skywaves at locations beyond about 100 km from the reference station. These skywaves interfere with groundwave signals due to fading. This factor has generally ignored in designing DGPS/Radio beacon systems. A further important factor is to reduce the coverage due to interference from other beacons on the same or adjacent frequencies. The desired signal may fade due to interaction between its skywave and groundwave components. It may degrade the accuracy of the positioning in a complex fashion. This paper estimates the coverage of Far East Asia DGPS stations which are operating on the same frequencies, which is based on the signal protection ratio and interference of the signal strength of the groundwave and skywave.

Automatic facial expression recognition has many potential applications in different areas of human computer interaction. However, they are not yet fully realized due to the lack of an effective facial feature descriptor. In this paper, we present a new appearance-based feature descriptor, the local directional pattern (LDP), to represent facial geometry and analyze its performance in expression recognition. An LDP feature is obtained by computing the edge response values in 8 directions at each pixel and encoding them into an 8 bit binary number using the relative strength of these edge responses. The LDP descriptor, a distribution of LDP codes within an image or image patch, is used to describe each expression image. The effectiveness of dimensionality reduction techniques, such as principal component analysis and AdaBoost, is also analyzed in terms of computational cost saving and classification accuracy. Two well-known machine learning methods, template matching and support vector machine, are used for classification using the Cohn-Kanade and Japanese female facial expression databases. Better classification accuracy shows the superiority of LDP descriptor against other appearance-based feature descriptors.

In this study, to investigate and to predict the crack growth behavior under variable amplitude loading, crack growth tests are conducted on 7075-T6 aluminum alloy. The loading wave forms are generated by normal random number generator. All wave forms have same average and RMS(root mean square) value, but different standard deviation, which is to vary the maximum load in each wave. The modified Forman's equation is used as crack growth equation. Using the retardation coefficient D defined in previous study, the load interaction effect is considered. The variability in crack growth process is described by the random variable Z which was obtained from crack growth tests under constant amplitude loading in previous work. From these, a statistical model is developed. The curves predicted by the proposed model well describe the crack growth behavior under variable amplitude loading and agree with experimental data. In addition, this model well predicts the variability in crack growth process under variable amplitude loading.
