최근 렌즈 가공 및 측정 기술의 발전에 따라 렌즈의 제작 조립 기술이 개선되었다. 그럼에도 불구하고 렌즈 제작 조립 기술의 상향에 따른 비용 및 제작 기간의 증가, 온도 및 진동 등의 사용 환경 의존도를 해결하지 못해 이에 따른 불안정해지는 성능 등을 극복하지 못하였다. 또한, 초정밀 광학계에서 효과적으로 민감도를 줄이는 방법은 다수의 보상자를 이용하는 방법인데, 특히 내시경 같은 초소형 렌즈의 경우 렌즈 경통 크기 제약으로 인하여 상거리 보상자 이외 추가적인 보상자 사용에 어려움이 있다. 따라서 렌즈 설계에 있어 공차에 대한 렌즈의 민감도를 최소화하는 것은 무엇보다도 중요한 기술인 바 이를 위한 노력이 필요하며, 렌즈 설계 소프트웨어에서도 민감도를 줄일 수 있는 기능들이 추가되는 추세이다. 본 논문에서는 우선 성능이 최적화된 설계를 도출하고, 이 설계의 민감도를 분석하여 민감도가 높은 요소들을 다중 구성(multi-configuration)에 적용한 뒤 다시 최적화함으로써 렌즈 민감도를 최소화하였으며 사례를 들어 다중 구성 방법이 민감도 저감에 매우 효과적임을 보여주었다.

모델링 및 시뮬레이션은 목표 시스템의 동작 검증, 성능 분석, 운용 최적화, 예측을 위해 사용되는 기술이다. 이 기술의 대표적인 이산사건 시스템 명세(DEVS)는 모델들을 엄격한 형식론으로 정의하고 모델 간의 구조를 계층화한다. 이 DEVS 모델들의 원자 모델은 목표와 다른 의도로 동작하게 될 경우 시뮬레이션은 잘못된 의사결정으로 이어질 수 있다. 그럼에도 대부분 DEVS 시스템은 모델 테스트의 부재 또는 수동 테스트 환경으로 제공하여 개발자가 모델을 검증하는 데 오랜 시간이 소비된다. 본 논문에서는 파이썬 기반 DEVS에서 정확하고 빠른 원자 모델의 검증을 위해 스크립트 기반 테스트 시스템을 제안한다. 제안 테스트 시스템은 기존 방식인 수동 테스트와 새로운 방식인 스크립트 기반 테스트를 둘 다 사용한다. 우리 시스템의 실험 결과, 제안 테스트 방식은 스크립트를 10번 연속 실행 시 24ms 이내에 실행되었다. 그리하여 제안 시스템은 스크립트 기반 테스트를 사용해서 빠른 원자 모델 검증 시간을 보장하고, 테스트 스크립트의 재사용성을 향상한다.

Plug-in Hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) show great potential to reduce gas emission, improve fuel efficiency and offer more driving range flexibility. Moreover, PHEV help to preserve the eco-system, climate changes and reduce the high demand for fossil fuels. To address this; some basic components and energy resources have been used, such as batteries and proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells (FCs). However, the FC remains unsatisfactory in terms of power density and response. In light of the above, an electric storage system (ESS) seems to be a promising solution to resolve this issue, especially when it comes to the transient phase. In addition to the FC, a storage system made-up of an ultra-battery UB is proposed within this paper. The association of the FC and the UB lead to the so-called Fuel Cell Battery Electric Vehicle (FCBEV). The energy consumption model of a FCBEV has been built considering the power losses of the fuel cell, electric motor, the state of charge (SOC) of the battery, and brakes. To do so, the implementing a reinforcement-learning energy management strategy (EMS) has been carried out and the fuel cell efficiency has been optimized while minimizing the hydrogen fuel consummation per 100km. Within this paper the adopted approach over numerous driving cycles of the FCBEV has shown promising results.

Hydrogen gas (H₂) which is odorless, colorless is attracting attention as a renewable energy source in varions applications but its leakage can lead to disastrous disasters, such as inflammable, explosive, and narcotic disasters at high concentrations. Therefore, it is necessary to develop H₂ gas sensor with high performance. In this paper, we confirmed that H₂ gas detection ability of SnO₂ based H₂ gas sensor along with thermal treatment effect of SnO₂. Proposed SnO₂ based H₂ gas sensor is fabricated by MEMS technologies such as photolithgraphy, sputtering and lift-off process, etc. Deposited SnO₂ thin films are thermally treated in various thermal treatement temperature in range of 500-900 ℃ and their H₂ gas detection ability is estimatied by measuring output current of H₂ gas sensor. Based on experimental results, fabricated H₂ gas sensor with SnO₂ thin film which is thermally treated at 700 ℃ has a superior H₂ gas detection ability, and it can be expected to utilize at the practical applications.

Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a serious concern for preterm infants and can predispose such infants to brain injury and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. IVH is particularly common in preterm infants. Although advances in obstetric management and neonatal care have led to a lower mortality rate for preterm infants with IVH, the IVH-related morbidity rate in this population remains high. Therefore, the present review investigated the pathophysiology of IVH and the evidence related to interventions for prevention. The analysis of the pathophysiology of IVH was conducted with a focus on the factors associated with cerebral hemodynamics, vulnerabilities in the structure of cerebral vessels, and host or genetic predisposing factors. The findings presented in the literature indicate that fluctuations in cerebral blood flow, the presence of hemodynamic significant patent ductus arteriosus, arterial carbon dioxide tension, and impaired cerebral venous drainage; a vulnerable or fragile capillary network; and a genetic variant associated with a mechanism underlying IVH development may lead to preterm infants developing IVH. Therefore, strategies focused on antenatal management, such as routine corticosteroid administration and magnesium sulfate use; perinatal management, such as maternal transfer to a specialized center; and postnatal management, including pharmacological agent administration and circulatory management involving prevention of extreme blood pressure, hemodynamic significant patent ductus arteriosus management, and optimization of cardiac function, can lower the likelihood of IVH development in preterm infants. Incorporating neuroprotective care bundles into routine care for such infants may also reduce the likelihood of IVH development. The findings regarding the pathogenesis of IVH further indicate that cerebrovascular status and systemic hemodynamic changes must be analyzed and monitored in preterm infants and that individualized management strategies must be developed with consideration of the risk factors for and physiological status of each preterm infant.

Construction contactors must continuously seek to improve their cash flows, which reside at the heart of their financial success. They require careful planning, analysis, and optimization to avoid the risk of bankruptcy, remain profitable, and secure long-term growth. Sources of cash include bank loans and retained earnings, which are conceptually similar in that they both incur a cost of capital. Financial management therefore requires accurate yet customizable modeling capabilities that can quantify all expenses, including said cost of capital. However, currently existing cash flow models in construction engineering and management have strongly simplified the manner in which interest is assessed, which may even lead to overstating it at a disadvantage to contractors. The variable nature of cash balances, especially in the early phases of construction projects, contribute to this challenging issue. This research therefore extends a new cash flow model with an accurate interest calculation. It utilizes singularity functions, so called because of their ability to flexibly model changes across any number of different ranges. The interest function is continuous for activity costs of any duration and allows the realistic case that activities may begin between integer time periods, which are often calendar months. Such fractional interest calculation has hitherto been lacking from the literature. It also provides insights into the self-referential behavior of compound interest for variable cash balances. The contribution of this study is twofold; augmenting the corpus of financial analysis theory with a new interest formula, whose strengths include its generic nature and that it can be evaluated at any fractional value of time, and providing construction managers with a tool to help improve and fine-tune the financial performance of their projects.

기존의 립싱크 시스템은 음소 분할 후, 각각의 음소를 인식하는 2단계의 과정을 거쳤다. 하지만, 정확한 음소 분할의 부재와 음성이 끊긴 분할 된 음소로 이루어진 훈련 데이터들은 시스템의 전체 성능을 크게 떨어뜨렸다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 Head-Body-Tail (HBT) 모델을 이용한 단모음 연속어 인식 기술을 제안한다. 주로 소규모 어휘를 다루는데 적합한 HBT 모델은 Head 와 Tail 부분에 문맥 종속 정보를 포함하여 앞 뒤 문맥에 따른 조음효과를 최대한 반영한다. 또한, 7개의 단모음을 입모양이 비슷한 세 개의 클래스로 분류하여, 클래스에 종속적인 코드북 3개를 가진 반연속HMM (Hidden Markov Model)을 적용하여 시스템을 최적화하고, 변이 부분이 큰 단어의 처음과 끝은 연속HMM의 8 믹스쳐 가우시안 구조를 사용하여 모델링하였다. 제안한 방법은 HBT구조의 연속HW과 대등한 성능을 보이지만, 파라미터 수는 33.92% 감소하였다. 파라미터 감소는 계산 양을 줄여주므로, 시스템이 실시간으로 동작 가능하게 한다.

This paper analyzes the vibration characteristics within the cargo compartment of a three-wheeled cargo bike when used on both regular roads and dedicated bicycle lanes. When cargo is loaded into the cargo compartment of a cargo bike and driven on the road, the shocks and vibrations transmitted from the ground can potentially affect the transported goods and even lead to product damage. As the vibration characteristics applied to the cargo compartment may vary depending on the condition of the road, vibration sensors were attached to the cargo bike's cargo compartment for data collection during operation on different road types. According to KS T ISO 13355 standards, the cargo bike can withstand vibrations within the range of 10 Hz to 60 Hz when operating on both bicycle lanes and regular roads. However, it is observed that there are peaks exceeding the profile in the frequency range of 3-6 Hz. In the 70-200 Hz range, the profile is exceeded on both regular roads and bicycle lanes, with a tendency for higher exceedance on bicycle lanes. The Grms value within the frequency range of KS T ISO 13355 is 5.926 m/s² (0.604 Grms). When operating on bicycle lanes with cargo, the Peak envelope optimization PSD value is 6.553 Grms, while on bicycle lanes, it is 7.708 Grms, indicating a difference of at least tenfold.

Thallium-201 (²⁰¹Tl) is a medical radioisotope which emits gamma rays when it decays and used in myocardial perfusion scans in single-photon emission tomography due to its similar properties to potassium. Currently, the Korea Institute of Radiological & Medical Sciences is the only institution producing ²⁰¹Tl in Korea, and optimization of ²⁰¹Tl production research is necessary to meet supply compared to domestic demand. To this end, technical analysis of plating target production and chemical separation methods essential for ²⁰¹Tl production research is conducted. It deals with the process of generating and separating ²⁰¹Tl radioisotope and target production, It can be generated through a nuclear reaction such as ^natHg(p,xn)²⁰¹Tl, ²⁰¹Hg(p,n)²⁰¹Tl, ^natPb(p,xn)²⁰¹Bi → ²⁰¹Pb → ²⁰¹Tl, ²⁰⁵Tl(p,5n)²⁰¹Pb → ²⁰¹Tl, and considering impure nuclide generated simultaneously with the use of proton beam energy of 35 MeV or less, it is intended to be produced using the ²⁰³Tl(p,3n)²⁰¹Pb→²⁰¹Tl nuclear reaction. In particular, the chemical separation of Tl is a very important element, and the chemical separation methods that can separate it is broadly divided into four types, including solid phase extraction, liquid-liquid, electrochemical, and ion exchange membrane separation. Some chemical separations require additional separation steps, such as methods using selective adsorption. Therefore, this technical report describes four chemical separation methods and seeks to separate high-purity ²⁰¹Tl using a method without additional separation steps

Quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QD-LEDs) are emerging as next-generation displays owing to their high color purity, wide color gamut, and solution processability. Enhancing the efficiency of QD-LEDs involves preventing non-radiative recombination mechanisms, such as Auger and interfacial recombination. Generally, ZnO serves as the electron transport layer, which is known for its higher mobility compared to that of organic semiconductors and can lead to excessive electron injection. Some of the injected electrons pass through the quantum dot emissive layer and undergo non-radiative recombination near or within the organic hole transport layer (HTL), resulting in HTL degradation. Therefore, the implementation of electron blocking layers (EBLs) is essential; however, studies on all-solution-processed inverted InP QD-LEDs are limited. In this study, poly(9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) is introduced as an EBL to mitigate HTL degradation and enhance the emission efficiency of inverted InP QD-LEDs. Using a single-carrier device, PVK was confirmed to effectively inhibit electron overflow into the HTL, even at extremely low thicknesses. The optimization of the PVK thickness also ensured minimal disruption of the hole-injection properties. Consequently, a 1.5-fold increase in the maximum luminance was achieved in the all-solution-processed inverted InP QD-LEDs with the EBL.
