In contrast to the conventional trigatron switch in which the currents are constricted by the z-pinch mechanical the new switch operates in an inverse pinch geometry formed by a pair of spiral electrodes in a sealed-off type. Inverse pinch switch greatly reduces hot spot formations and protects the electrode surfaces. The switch can be initiated with an electrical trigger electrode. Advantages of the new switch over the conventional switches are longer useful life, high current capability and lower inductance due to the dispersed and moving current sheet. These improved characteristics may make the inverse pinch switch suitable for pulse power systems.

The current density in the IPS(Inverse Pinch Switch) is 1/62 times less than that in the spark gap. It was shown that in comparison with the spark gap, the switch inductance of the IPS is largely reduced and the useful lifetime is significantly increased. In the paper, the design technology of a closing switch, especially IPS triggered by electrical signal for pulsed power system with a very high voltage and current is presented.

고전압 대전류 펄스파워에 사용되는 스위치는 여러 종류가 사용되고 있는데, 커페시터에 저장된 초기의 전자 에너지를 시공적으로 압축하여 수ns ${\sim}$ 수ms의 짧은 시간안에 고출력을 발생시키기 위해서는 펄스파워 장치에 사용되는 커패시터, 인덕터, 저항, 스위치등 회로 소자들의 임피이던스가 작아야 할 필요성이 대두 된다. 따라서 Inverse Pinch Switch(IPS)는 이런 조건을 만족시킬수 있는 스위치로서 각광을 받고 있다. 본 논문에서는 전기트리거형 IPS의 금속 전극부와 절연 ceramic를 brazing하여 sealed off type의 스위치의 제작 과정과 특성을 연구 하였다.

Closing switch, key component of pulsed power system, is constructed simply and used frequently due to the easy control and manufacture of one. The kind of one are spark-gap, triggered vacuum switch, pseudo-spark switch and INPIStron. But the electrode of spark gap switch is damaged with the hot spot by Z-pinch and then the life of one become short. INPIStron with inverse pinch effect has long life but it is difficult trigger system to provide uniform discharge between cathode and anode. In this paper, the design and manufacturing of INPIStron with gas puffing trigger method in order to supply uniform discharge inter-electrode and the performance of the developed INPIStron applied to 500[kA]-2[MJ] pulsed power system is presented.

Closing switch는 여러 가지가 있으나, 방전시 발생하는 Z-pinch로 인한 전극의 손상으로 수명이 짧고, 소음, 열 발생 등으로 소형화가 문제점으로 되어왔다. Inverse pinch현상을 이용하여 기존의 closing switch보다 전류밀도가 1/62, 주울열의 발생, 인덕턴스가 작다. INPIStron의 수명에 영향을 미치는 절연물질은 세라믹을, 도전체로서는 경제성을 감안하여 쉽게 구할 수 있는 구리를 이용하여 제작하였고, 트리거는 gas-puffing방식을 사용하였다. 또한 이렇게 제작된 INPIStron을 이용하여 2MJ-500kA급 pulsed power 전원 장치를 개발하였다.

The manufactured pulsed power system with 500kA current is described in this paper. The capacitor bank, control cabinent, dec charging unit, closing switch and dumping box, cable system etc. employed with the system components are described. Especially the development of the inverse pinch switch controlled by gas puffing enabled the generation of the very high voltage and current.

Human like robot arm posture for grasping by considering the shape of the target object is quite a challenge in the field of robotics. In this paper, an optimized grasp posture with respect to the shape of the object considering the wrist joint angle and elbow elevation angle, in order to verify that the grasp posture is human like has been proposed. Given a target object, the candidates for grasp are computed by the method described in this paper. For each candidate, the closed loop inverse kinematics has been solved for the corresponding hand position and orientation. From the obtained joint angles through inverse kinematics, the elbow elevation angle has been computed and compared with the elbow elevation angle obtained through human movement data by the characteristic equation. After considering all the candidates, the hand position and orientation with minimum wrist joint and difference in elbow elevation angles has been utilized as the optimized grasp posture. Simulation results are presented.

The Sinyangri Formation crops out in the vicinity of the Seongsan Peninsula, Cheju Island. Based on sedimentary structures, texture and composition, the lithologic sequence has been classified, in ascending stratigraphic order, into three lithofacies: parallel laminated sandstone facies (Facies I): conglomerate facies(Facies Il); and cross stratified sandstone facies (F acies Ill). Wedge-to-parallel, seaward-inclined in low angle less than 10$^{\circ}$lamina -sets with alternations of coarseand fine-grained sediments in the Facies I are the characteristic sedimentary structures in the foreshore depositional environment. Grains of this faciesare well sorted with good roundness compared with the other two facies, partly showing inverse graded bedding. Facies II,largely composed of claset-supported,very poorly-sorted conglomerates,does not pinch out but occurs continuously along the Sinyangri beach.Interstitial spaces between the clasts are mostly infilled with volcanic-ash and small amounts of well-rounded shell fragments.Maximum bed thickness as well as the size of imbedded basaltic clasts decreases to the south(toward Sinyangri). Large clasts with parallel lamination originated from the underlying Facies i,are generally elongated parallel to the bedding plane and display no systematic horizontal variations in size indicative of in-situ clasts.In view of the facts above it seems that large gravels from the basaltic rocks are transgressive lag conglomerates which are partly affected by the combination of longshore currents and propagating wave.Local occurrence of cross-strata dipping toward the south in the upper part of Facies IIreinforces the evidence of the action of longshore currents. Facies IIIis characterized by bidirectional trough cross-starifiction and wave ripples associated with the upper shoreface(surfzone) environments.In summary,the Sinyangri Formation represents the depositional environments of foreshore to upper shoreface truncated by disconformity between Facies Iand II.
