This paper introduces a novel system-level framework that derives energy efficient electric vehicle (EV) driving speed profile to extend EV driving range without additional cost. This paper first implements an EV power train model considering forces acting on a driving vehicle and motor efficiency. Then, it derivate the minimum-energy driving speed profile for a given driving mission defined by the route. This framework first formulates an optimization problem and uses the dynamic programming algorithm with a weighting factor to derive a speed profile minimizing both of energy consumption and driving time. This paper introduces various weighting factor tracking methods to satisfy the driving time constraint. Simulation results show that runtime of the proposed scaling algorithm is 34% and 50% smaller than those of the binary search algorithm and greedy algorithm, respectively.

We developed a Near Real-Time Validation System (NRVS) for the Level-2 Products of AQUA Satellite. AQUA satellite is the second largest project of Earth Observing System (EOS) mission of NASA. This satellite provides the information of water cycle of the entire earth with many different forms. Among its products, we have used five kinds of level-2 geophysical parameters containing rain rate, sea surface wind speed, skin surface temperature, atmospheric temperature profile, and atmospheric humidity profile. To use these products in a scientific purpose, reasonable quantification is indispensable. In this paper we explain the near real-time validation system process and its detail algorithm. Its simulation results are also analyzed in a quantitative way. As reference data set in-situ measured meteorological data which are periodically gathered and provided by the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) is processed. Not only site-specific analysis but also time-series analysis of the validation results are explained and detail algorithms are described.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is anticipated to be the future of technology. Hence, AI has been applied in various fields over the years and its applications are expected to grow in number with the passage of time. There has been a growing need for accurate, direct, and quick prediction of geotechnical and foundation engineering models especially since the success of each project relies on numerous amounts of data. In this study, two applications of AI in the field of geotechnical and foundation engineering are presented - spatial interpolation of standard penetration test (SPT) data and prediction of consolidation of clay. SPT and soil profile data may be predicted and estimated at any location and depth at a site that has no available borehole test data using artificial intelligence techniques such as artificial neural networks (ANN) based on available geospatial information from nearby boreholes. ANN can also be used to accelerate the calculation of various theoretical methods such as the one-dimensional consolidation theory of clay with high efficiency by using lesser computation resources. The results of the study showed that ANN can be a valuable, powerful, and practical tool in providing various information that is needed in geotechnical and foundation design.

Nanoscale semiconductor plasma processing has become one of the most challenging issues due to the limits of physicochemical fabrication routes with its inherent complexity. The mission of future and emerging plasma processing for development of next generation semiconductor processing is to achieve the ideal nanostructures without abnormal profiles and damages, such as 3D NAND cell array with ultra-high aspect ratio, cylinder capacitors, shallow trench isolation, and 3D logic devices. In spite of significant contributions of research frontiers, these processes are still unveiled due to their inherent complexity of physicochemical behaviors, and gaps in academic research prevent their predictable simulation. To overcome these issues, a Korean plasma consortium began in 2009 with the principal aim to develop a realistic and ultrafast 3D topography simulator of semiconductor plasma processing coupled with zero-D bulk plasma models. In this work, aspects of this computational tool are introduced. The simulator was composed of a multiple 3D level-set based moving algorithm, zero-D bulk plasma module including pulsed plasma processing, a 3D ballistic transport module, and a surface reaction module. The main rate coefficients in bulk and surface reaction models were extracted by molecular simulations or fitting experimental data from several diagnostic tools in an inductively coupled fluorocarbon plasma system. Furthermore, it is well known that realistic ballistic transport is a simulation bottleneck due to the brute-force computation required. In this work, effective parallel computing using graphics processing units was applied to improve the computational performance drastically, so that computer-aided design of these processes is possible due to drastically reduced computational time. Finally, it is demonstrated that 3D feature profile simulations coupled with bulk plasma models can lead to better understanding of abnormal behaviors, such as necking, bowing, etch stops and twisting during high aspect ratio contact hole etch.

A flight capability to take a terrain following flight near the ground is required to reduce the probability that a fighter aircraft can be detected by foe's radar fence in the battlefield. The success rate for mission flight has increased by adopting TFS (Terrain Following System) to enable the modern advanced fighter to fly safely near the ground at the low altitude. This system has applied to the state-of-the-art fighter and bomber, such as B-1, F-111, F-16 E/F and F-15, since the research begins from 1960's. In this paper, the terrain following system and GCAS (Ground Collision Avoidance System) was developed, based on a digital database with UTAS's TERPRROM (TERrain PROfile Matching) equipment. This system calculates the relative location of the aircraft in the terrain database by using the aircraft status information provided by the radar altimeter and the INS (Inertial Navigation System), based on the digital terrain database loaded previously in the DTC (Data Transfer Cartridge), and figures out terrain features around. And, the system is a manual terrain following system which makes a steering command cue refer to flight path marker, on the HUD (Head Up Display), for vertical acceleration essential for terrain following flight and enables a pilot to follow it. The cue is based on the recognized terrain features and TCH (Target Clearance Height) set by a pilot in advance. The developed terrain following system was verified in the real-time pilot evaluation in FA-50 HQS (Handling Quality Simulator) environment.

This study was intended to investigate the characteristics of loads acting on the transmission of agricultural tractors during plowing, rotavating and transporting operations. A survey was conducted to determine working speeds and transmission gears most frequently used for each operations. The transmission loads were measured at the input shaft of the transmission gear box during each operations. Time histories of the measured torque loads were converted into a load spectrum and analyzed with respect to the S-N curve of the shaft material to estimate the partial damages on the transmission. Finally, comparison of the relative damages and severeness of each operation was presented and discussed.

The Systems Engineering method is increasingly recognized as a central in the Acquisition of Weapon Systems in South Korea. Because of these trends, issues concerned with improving weapon system design are increasingly raised. This paper presents a development of Operational Mode Summary/Mission Profile (OMS/MP) in terms of Weapon Systems Acquisition for application to Systems Engineering method. For a systematic approach, a precise concept of OMS/MP is derived by analyzing the concept of conventional OMS/MP. This paper reviews the results of a series of previously reported examples aiming to develop the OMS/MP of a weapon system. Based on this, the limitations of the conventional OSM/MP applications are investigated. And these limitations can be resolved by the Fundamentals of Systems Engineering. Finally, the OMS/MP framework based on the Fundamentals of Systems Engineering has been proposed and is successfully implemented for the Harbor Underwater Surveillance System.
