  • Purpose: This study aims to develop a multi-purpose electron beam irradiation device for preclinical research and material testing using the research electron linear accelerator installed at the Dongnam Institute of Radiological and Medical Sciences. Methods: The fabricated irradiation device comprises a dual scattering foil and collimator. The correct scattering foil thickness, in terms of the energy loss and beam profile uniformity, was determined using Monte Carlo calculations. The ion-chamber and radiochromic films were used to determine the reference dose-rate (Gy/s) and beam profiles as functions of the source to surface distance (SSD) and pulse frequency. Results: The dose-rates for the electron beams were evaluated for the range from 59.16 Gy/s to 5.22 cGy/s at SSDs of 40-120 cm, by controlling the pulse frequency. Furthermore, uniform dose distributions in the electron fields were achieved up to approximately 10 cm in diameter. An empirical formula for the systematic dose-rate calculation for the irradiation system was established using the measured data. Conclusions: A wide dose-rate range electron beam irradiation device was successfully developed in this study. The pre-clinical studies relating to FLASH radiotherapy to the conventional level were made available. Additionally, material studies were made available using a quantified irradiation system. Future studies are required to improve the energy, dose-rate, and field uniformity of the irradiation system.

  • The definition of cycle time is the time from the wafer start to the wafer output. It usually takes one or two months to get the product since customer decides to produce it. The cycle time is a critical factor for customer satisfaction because it represents the response time to the market. Long cycle time reflects the ineffective investment for the capital. The cycle time is very important for foundry because long cycle time will cause customer unsatisfied and the order loss. Consequently, all of the foundries put lots of human source in the cycle time improvement. Usually, we make decisions based on the experience in the cycle time management. We have no mechanism or theory for cycle time management. We do work-in-process (WIP) management based on turn rate and standard WIP (STD WIP) set by experiences. But the experience didn't mean the optimal solution, when the situation changed, the cycle time or the standard WIP will also be changed. The experience will not always be applicable. If we only have the experience and no mechanism, management will not be work out. After interview several foundry fab managers, all of the fab can't reflect the situation. That is, all of them will have an impact period after product mix or utilization varied. In this study, we want to develop a formula for standard WIP and use statistical process control (SPC) concept to set WIP upper/lower limit level. When WIP exceed the limit level, it will trigger action plans to compensate WIP Profile. If WIP Profile balances, we don't need too much WIP. So WIP level could be reduced and cycle time also could be reduced.

  • The present study developed a new technique with no physical object on the flow stream but enabling the air flow measurement and easily incorporated with the devices for cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) procedure. A turbulence chamber was formed in the middle of the respiratory tube by locally enlarging the cross-sectional area where the flow related turbulence was generated inducing energy loss which was in turn converted into pressure difference. The turbulence chamber was simply an empty enlarged air space, thus no physical object existed on the flow stream, but still the flow rate could be evaluated. Computer simulation demonstrated stable turbulence formation big enough to measure. Experiment was followed on the proto-type transducer, the results of which were within ${\pm}5%$ error compared to the simulation data. Both inspiratory and expiratory flows were obtained with symmetric measurement characteristics. Quadratic curve fitting provided excellent calibration formula with a correlation coefficient>0.999(P<0.0001) and the mean relative error<1%. The present results can be usefully applied to accurately monitor the air flow rate during CPR.

  • In this part of the studies on dielectric dehydration of foamed fish-starch paste, quality stability and shelflife of the product of which the preparation formula and processing conditions were described in the previous report (Lee et at., 1982) were determined by means of accelerated reaction test. The product was stored for 50 days under the conditions of temperatures at 35, 45, and 55$^{\circ}C$ in steady state and various water activities of 0.44, 0.52, 0.65, and 0.75, respectively. The loss of available lysine, the extent of TBA value, and the development of browning during the storage were measured and reaction kinetically analysed to assess quality stability and shelf-life of the product for the storage at room temperature of 25$^{\circ}C$. The extent of browning was accelerated with the increase of water activity and temperature marking the time to reach a limit of color and flavor deterioration, or to reach brown color density of 0.17 O.D./g at 420nm, 106 days at a$\_$w/=0.44, 35$^{\circ}C$, and 41 days at aw=0.65, 55$^{\circ}C$. These reaction rates resulted in a prediction of shelf-life, 130 to 110 days in the storage at au=0.44 to 0.75, 25$^{\circ}C$. The quality limit assessed by TBA values and sensory evaluation of rancidity was 87 days at a$\_$w/=0.44, 35$^{\circ}C$, and 30 days at aw=0.73, 55$^{\circ}C$ which gave a predicted shelf-life, 128 to 113 days at a$\_$w/=0.44 to 0.75, 25$^{\circ}C$ storage.

  • 지난 수 세기 동안 온실기체와 기타 화학적으로 중요한 미량기체들이 급격하게 증가하였다. 이러한 주요기체가 기후 변화에 미치는 영향을 이해하기 위해서는 각 기체들의 흡원과 발원을 규명하고, 생물권과 대기권 사이에서 발생하는 생물 기원 기체 플럭스들을 특성화하며, 주요 기체를 조절하는 프로세스들을 이해해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 야외 실험을 위한 실용적 방법인 enclosure 기반의 관측법을 소개한다. 특히, 토양표면에서 방출되는 일산화질소 플럭스에 대한 enclosure내에서의 질량수지 방정식과 flow-through dynamic 플럭스 챔버 기법의 민감도를 제시하고 flow-through dynamic 플럭스 챔버 방법의 물리적인 시스템과 이론을 소개한다. 또한 챔버 벽에서 발생하는 일산화질소의 손실을 고려하므로써 새로운 플럭스 계산식을 소개하였고 그 계산식의 불확실성을 논의하였다.

  • Sardine ant mackerel so called dark muscled fish have been underutilized due to the disadvantages in bloody meat color, high content of fat, and postmortem instability of protein. Recent efforts were made to overcome these defects and develope new types of product such as texturized protein concentrates and dark muscle eliminated minced fish. Approach of this study is based on the rapicl dehydration of foamed fish-starch paste by dielectric heating. In process comminuted sardine meat was washed more than three times by soaking and decanting in chilled water and finally centrifuged. The meat was ground in a stone mortar added with adequate amounts of salt, foaming agent, and other ingredients for aid to elasticity and foam stability. The ground meat paste was extruded in finger shape and heated in a microwave oven to give foamed, expanded, and porous solid structure by dehydration. Dielectric constant ($\varepsilon$′) and dielectric loss ($\varepsilon$") vcalues of sardine meat paste were influenced by wavelength and moisture level. Those values at 100KHz and 15MHz were ranged 2.25∼9.86 ; 2.22∼4.18 for $\varepsilon$′ and 0.24∼19.24 ; 0.16∼1.25 for $\varepsilon$", respectively, at the moisture levels of 4.2∼13.8%. For a formula for fish-starch paste preparation, addition of 20∼30% starch (potato starch) to the weight of fish meat, 2∼4% salt, and 5∼10% soybean protein was adequate to yield 4∼5 folds of expansion in volume when heated. Addition of egg yolk was of benefit to micronize foam size and better crispness. In order to provide better foaming and dehydration, addition of 0.2∼0.5% sodium bicarbonate foaming agent, was proper to result in foam size of 0.5∼0.7mm and foam density of 200∼400/$\textrm{cm}^2$ which gave a good crispness.

  • 예인선의 주요 목적의 하나는 구난 작업시 다른 선박을 예인하는 것이다. 예인선이 이러한 작업을 안전하게 수행하기 위해서는 적절한 예인력을 가질 수 있어야 한다. 따라서 예인 작업중 피 예인선박에 대한 저항을 추정하는 것은 매우 중요하고도 필수적인 과정이다. 본 논문에서는 예인력을 추정할 수 있는 선박의 저항 계산 프로그램을 연구하였다. 계산 프로그램은 정수중의 기본 선체 저항과 바람, 표류, 선체 표면 거칠기, 파랑, 천수 및 조류에 의한 부가저항을 계산하는 기능을 가지고 있다. 모든 추정값은 도표 또는 수식을 이용하는 통계적이고 경험적인 방법으로 계산된다. 본 프로그램에 의한 계산 결과는 미국 해군의 예인 매뉴얼로부터 계산된 결과와 비교하였다. 그 결과 본 프로그램은 손상 선박의 저항을 적절히 추정할 수 있는 유용한 프로그램이라고 판단된다.

  • IEEE 802.11e EDCA(Enhanced Distributed Channel Access)는 서로 다른 AC(Access Category)에 따라서 CW(Contention Window)를 이용하여 Quality-of-Service(QoS)를 지원한다. 그러나 무선 네트워크 환경이 혼잡 (Congested)할 경우 패킷의 충돌 발생 확률을 높일 수 있다는 문제점이 여전히 존재한다. 이를 해결하기 위해 여러 방법들이 제시되었으나 혼잡 네트워크상에서는 동일 우선순위를 가지는 패킷 전송을 위해서 전송 채널을 이용하는 경쟁 과정에서 패킷 충돌(Collision)이 발생할 확률이 여전히 존재한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 EDCA 포화 상태에서 전송 효율을 높이는 APCA(Advanced Priority Collision Avoidance) 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 IEEE 802.11e 표준을 기반으로 RTS/CTS (Request to Send / Clear to Send)를 이용하여 패킷 전송 FC(Frame Control) 필드의 예약된 필드(Reserved Field) 비트를 이용하여 데이터 패킷 충돌을 회피하는 것이다. 시뮬레이션의 결과로 제안된 알고리즘이 기존의 EDCA에 비해 패킷 전송 실패율이 감소했음을 보였다. Jain's fairness index를 이용하여 제안된 APCA 알고리즘이 네트워크 혼잡 상황에서 EDCA 방식 보다 공정성을 유지하는 것을 확인하였다.

  • A new type low-pass filter design method based on a coupled line and transmission line theory is proposed to suppress harmonics by attenuation poles in the stop band The design formula are derived using the equivalent circuit of a coupled transmission line. The new low-pass filter structure is shown to have attractive properties such as compact size, wide stop band range and low insertion loss. The seventh-order low-pass filter designed by present method Ins a cutoff frequency of 0.9 GHz with a 0.01 dB ripple level. The coupled line type low-pass filter with stripline configuration was fabricated by using a high-temperature superconducting (HTS ; $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$) thin film on MgO(100) substrate. Since the HTS coupled line type low-pass filter was proposed with five attenuation poles in stop band such as 1.8, 2.5, 4, 5.5, 62 GHz. The fabricated low-pass filter has improved the attenuation characteristics up to seven times of the cutoff frequency Bemuse of good rejection of the spurious signals and harmonics, our low-pass filter is applicable to mobile base station systems such as cellular, personal communication systems and international mobile telecommunication(IMT)-2000 systems.

  • 본 논문에서는 프랙탈 부호화시 변환식의 계수를 찾는 과정에서 블럭의 탐색 영역을 줄이기 위해 탐색영역인 도메인 블록의 특성을 화소의 밝기의 평균에 의한 클라스와 분산에 의한 클라스로 분류하여 리스트를 구성한 후 레인지블록과 같은 클라스를 가지는 도메인블록만 검색하도록 하면서 도메인 블럭 탐색시 1차 허용 오차 한계값을 제어하여 부호화 시간을 향상시켰다. 또한 퀴드트리 분할법으로 레인지블록의 크기를 가변시켜 변환($W_i$)의 수를 줄임으로서 압축효율을 높이고 레인지블록의 크기에 따라 탐색 영역의 탐색 밀도를 변화시켜 화질 개선을 시도하였으며, 이러한 영상기법을 24-bpp 컬러 영상 압축에 적용하였다. 그 결과 영상의 화질에는 거의 손실이 생기지 않았고 컬러 RGB영상에 같은 부호화 방법을 사용 하였을 때 그레이레벨 영상과 같은 압축률이나 화질 면에서 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.
