Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI) is a Japanese X-ray all-sky surveyer mounted on the International Space Station (ISS). It has been scanning the whole sky since 2009 during every 92-minute ISS rotation. X-ray transients are quickly found by the real-time nova-search program. As a result, MAXI has issued 133 Astronomer's Telegrams and 44 Gamma-ray burst Coordinated Networks so far. MAXI has discovered six new black holes (BH) in 4.5 years. Long-term behaviors of the MAXI BHs can be classified into two types by their outbursts; a fast-rise exponential-decay type and a fast-rise flat-top one. The slit camera is suitable for accumulating data over a long time. MAXI issued a 37-month catalog containing 500 sources above a ~0.6 mCrab detection limit at 4-10 keV in the region ${\mid}{b}{\mid}$ > $10^{\circ}$. The SSC instrument utilizing an X-ray CCD has detected diffuse soft X-rays extending over a large solid angle, such as the Cygnus super bubble. MAXI/SSC has also detcted a Ne emission line from the rapid soft X-ray nova MAXI J0158-744. The overall shapes of outbursts in Be X-ray binaries (BeXRB) are precisely observed with MAXI/GSC. BeXRB have two kinds of outbursts, a normal outburst and a giant one. The peak dates of the subsequent giant outbursts of A0535+26 repeated with a different period than the orbital one. The Be stellar disk is considered to either have a precession motion or a distorted shape. The long-term behaviors of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXB) containing weakly magnetized neutron stars are investigated. Transient LMXBs (Aql X-1 and 4U 1608-52) repeated outbursts every 200-1000 days, which is understood by the limit-cycle of hydrogen ionization states in the outer accretion disk. A third state (very dim state) in Aql X-1 and 4U 1608-52 was interpreted as the propeller effect in the unified picture of LMXB. Cir X-1 is a peculiar source in the sense that its long-term behavior is not like typical LMXBs. The luminosity sometimes decreases suddenly at periastron. It might be explained by the stripping of the outer accretion disk by a clumpy stellar wind. MAXI observed 64 large flares from 22 active stars (RS CVns, dMe stars, Argol types, young stellar objects) over 4 years. The total energies are $10^{34}-10^{36}$ erg $s^{-1}$. Since MAXI can measure the spectrum (temperature and emission measure), we can estimate the size of the plasma and the magnetic fields. The size sometimes exceeds the size of the star. The magnetic field is in the range of 10-100 gauss, which is a typical value for solar flares.

고속철도 차륜의 미소결함을 고속 고공간 분해 능으로 측정할 수 있는 새로운 비파괴검사법이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구는 종래의 스캔형 자기카메라를 개선하여, 다중증폭회로와 결함표시를 위한 펄스 발생기를 장착한 신호처리회로를 제안한다. 홀센서를 선형으로 배열하고, 배열의 직각방향으로 차륜이 정속으로 회전하게 하면, 차륜의 답면을 검사할 수 있다. 각각의 홀전압을 증폭하고, AD변환기를 통하여 $\mu$-processor에 의하여 시간에 따른 전압차, 즉 ${\partial}V_H/{\partial}t$를 연산한다. ${\partial}V_H/{\partial}t$가 결함의 존재를 의미하는 비교치보다 클 때 pulse 신호가 발생하여 결함을 지시한다. 휠 시험편을 이용하여 제안된 방법을 검증하였다.

In this paper, the impact damage behavior of USN-150B carbon/epoxy composite laminates subjected to high velocity impact was studied experimentally and numerically. Square composite laminates stacked with $[45/0/-45/90]_{ns}$ quasi-symmetric and $[0/90]_{ns}$ cross-ply stacking sequences and a conical shape projectile with steel core, copper skin and lead filler were considered. First high-velocity impact tests were conducted under various test conditions. Three tests were repeated under the same impact condition. Projectile velocity before and after penetration were measured by infrared ray sensors and magnetic sensors. High-speed camera shots and C-Scan images were also taken to measure the projectile velocities and to obtain the information on the damage shapes of the projectile and the laminate specimens. Next, the numerical simulation was performed using explicit finite element code LS-DYNA. Both the projectile and the composite laminate were modeled using three-dimensional solid elements. Residual velocity history of the impact projectile and the failure shape and extents of the laminates were predicted and systematically examined. The results of this study can provide the understanding on the penetration process of laminated composites during ballistic impact, as well as the damage amount and modes. These were thought to be utilized to predict the decrease of mechanical properties and also to help mitigate impact damage of composite structures.

본 논문은 경동맥(carotid artery)을 환영한 MRA(Magnetic Resonance Angiography) 영상을 이용하여 실제 내시경으로 접근이 불가능한 경동맥의 내부를 시각화(visualization)하기 위해 가상혈관경(virtual angioscopy)을 구현하였다 항해경로 결정을 위해 MRA의 단면 원천영상에서 총경동맥 (common carotid artery) 및 내경동맥(internal carotid artery)만을 분리하였고, 중앙축 변환(MAT Medial Axis Transformation)을 통해 구해진 좌표값을 가상 카메라의 운행 경로로 사용하였다. 원근투영 (perspective projection) 및 볼륨 데이타의 표면을 렌더링하기 위해 마칭큐브(marching rube) 알고리즘을 사용하였다 허혈성으로 인한 뇌혈관질환(cerebrovascular disease)은 뇌졸중(stroke)의 80% 정도를 차지하는데, 경동맥은 뇌에 혈액을 공급하는 주된 혈관으로 경동맥 협착증(carotid artery stenosis)은 뇌졸중의 직접적인 원인이 된다. 가상혈관경은 경동맥 내부의 협착 위치와 협착 정도를 정성적으로 파악 할 수 있으며 협착증의 진단과 교육에 사용될 수 있다.

투과식 전자현미경에서 상과 그 회절패턴은 현미경의 자기렌즈 작용에 의하여 상오 회전되어 나타난다. 이 회전각의 측정 결정은 결정 시료의 결함 관찰 분석에서 중요하다. 이 회전각 측정에 대해 잘 알려진 방법은 $MoO_3$의 분말 결정을 이용하는 것이다. 그러나 이 방법에는 측정된 각에 항상 $180^{\circ}$의 불확실성이 따른다. 따라서 이 불확실성을 제거하기 위한 또 다른 방안이 강구되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 결정시료의 LACBED 패턴을 얻는 과정을 통해 간단하게 이 회전각을 측정하는 새로운 방법을 제시한다. 이 방법은 특정 결정을 필요로 하지 않는다. 이 방법을 통해 JEM 2010 TEM에서 상(image)과 그 회절패턴의 회전각은 $180^{\circ}$로 측정되었고, 이 각은 확대 배율이나 카메라 길이의 변화에도 변하지 않음이 관찰되었다.

One shot tasks like a MERSC handling policy, a cinema poster, and so on are too small, diverse, and sporadic to make them as apps or web applications. They are usually shared as the form of notes attached in the field or messages in smart phones. In order to support inter-operability with internet web sites, QR/NFC tags are attached to them. What matters in the web technology is that HTML5 standard does not supply the accessability of smart phones' resources like a camera, an audio, magnetic sensors, and etc. In this paper, we propose a universal smart phone application for handling various one-shot tasks in the same UI/UX. One-shot tasks are described with HTML5 web documents, and the URL for the web documents are stored in QR/NFC tags. A smart phone scans a tag, and then the web document is retrieved and presented finally. QR tags can be delivered to other smart phones through messages or SNS. We solve the problem of HTML5 standard supplying a resource access library with javascrippts. We suggested the whole architecture and the internal structure of QR/NFC tags. We show that our scheme is applicable to make variable one-shot tasks.

In this paper, real-time image scanning system using linescan cameras is designed. The system is specially designed to diagnose and analyse the conditions of tunnels such as crack widths through the captured images. The system consists of two major parts, the image acquisition system and the image merging system. To save scanned image data into storage media in real-time, the image acquisition system has been designed with two different control and management modules. The control modules are in charge of controlling the hardware device and the management modules handle system resources so that the scanned images are safely saved to the magnetic storage devices. The system can be mounted to various kinds of vehicles. After taking images, the image merging system generates extended images by combining saved images. Several tests are conducted in laboratory as well as in the field. In the laboratory simulation, both systems are tested several times and upgraded. In the field-testing, the image acquisition system is mounted to a specially designed vehicle and images of the interior surface of the tunnel are captured. The system is successfully tested in a real tunnel with a vehicle at the speed of 20 km/h. The captured images of the tunnel condition including cracks are vivid enough for an expert to diagnose the state of the tunnel using images instead of seeing through his/her eyes.

Ultrasonic motors provide high torques and quick responses compared to their magnetic counterparts; therefore, they are widely used in small-scale applications such as mobile phones, microrobots, and auto-focusing modules in digital cameras. To determine the feasibility of lead-free piezoceramics for ultrasonic motor applications, we fabricated a ring-type piezoceramic with a KNN-based lead-free piezoceramic (referred to as CZ5), intended for use in an auto-focusing module of a digital camera. The vibration of the lead-free stator was observed at 45.1 kHz. It is noteworthy that the fully assembled lead-free ultrasonic motor exhibited a revolution speed of 5-7 rpm, even though impedance matching with neighboring components was not considered. This result suggests that the tested KNN-based piezoceramic has great potential for use in ultrasonic motor applications, requiring minimal modifications to existing lead-based systems.
