Design structure of a mobile phone has been changed to a converged style, which has so many functions. However, the converged mobile phone could not satisfy the users who want to use only specific functions, so with Axiomatic Design, we have studied for making a proposal to set up the new concept. The goal of this study is to derive a general solution with Axiomatic Design to verify the Independence. By enhancing the existing design model and differentiating the function of mobile phone, user will be able to choose desirable products, which have only specific functions and/or specific parts. First of all, we checked the Independence about the existing design model. Then, we developed the new design model with the idea that base mobile phone should have basic functions and additional functions can be separated, surely be connected when users want.

The modular multilevel converter (MMC) is generally considered to be a promising topology for medium-voltage and high-voltage applications. However, in order to apply it to high-power applications, a huge number of switching devices is essential. The numerous switching devices lead to considerable switching losses, high cost and a larger heat sink for each of the switching device. In order to reduce the switching losses of a MMC, this paper analyzes the performance of the conventional discontinuous pulse-width modulation (DPWM) method and its efficiency. In addition, it proposes a modified novel DPWM method for advanced switching losses reduction. The novel DPWM scheme includes an additional rotation method for voltage-balancing and power distribution among sub modules (SMs). Simulation and experimental results verify the effectiveness and performance of the proposed modulation method in terms of its switching losses reduction capability.

Battery use is increasing worldwide to achieve carbon neutrality and improve energy efficiency, but batteries are a finite resource and their application is determined by capacity and specifications. Battery performance deteriorates as the number of uses increases. A certain level of battery performance degradation has become an issue in the field of reuse and recycling, and various studies are being conducted on reuse to solve power shortages. Waste batteries from electric vehicles are suitable for building ESS based on reusable batteries, and for stable use, technical skills are needed to accurately predict battery life and determine status information. Predicting battery life and determining status information are difficult due to non-linearity due to internal structure or chemical changes. In this paper, we manufactured a modular internal resistance measuring device and compared the measured values with Hioki equipment to minimize the error rate through a correction method. As a result of testing Hioki equipment and modular measuring instruments to ensure efficiency and safety based on reusable batteries, an accuracy of over 95% was confirmed.

This paper presents kinematic calibration of parallel manipulators with partial pose measurements using a device that measures a rotation of the end-effector along with its position. The device contains an LVDT, a biaxial inclinometer, and a rotary sensor and facilitates automation of the measurement procedure. The device is designed in a modular fashion and links of different lengths can be used. The additional kinematic parameters required for the measurement device are discussed, kinematic relations are derived, and cost function is established to perform calibration with the proposed device. The study is performed for a six degree-of-freedom(DOF) fully parallel HexaSlide Mechanism(HSM). Experimental results show significant improvement in the accuracy of the HSM.

This paper describes a design of RSA public-key cryptography processor supporting key length of 2,048 bits. A modular multiplier that is core arithmetic function in RSA cryptography was designed using word-based Montgomery multiplication algorithm, and a modular exponentiation was implemented by using Left-to-Right (LR) binary exponentiation algorithm. A computation of a modular multiplication takes 8,386 clock cycles, and RSA encryption and decryption requires 185,724 and 25,561,076 clock cycles, respectively. The RSA processor was verified by FPGA implementation using Virtex5 device. The RSA cryptographic processor synthesized with 100 MHz clock frequency using a 0.18 um CMOS cell library occupies 12,540 gate equivalents (GEs) and 12 kbits memory. It was estimated that the RSA processor can operate up to 165 MHz, and the estimated time for RSA encryption and decryption operations are 1.12 ms and 154.91 ms, respectively.

The need to acquire a multi-mission modular ship to carry out the mosaic warfare of modern warfare is increasing. In such a modular ship, not only domestic R&D equipment/systems but also an manned/unmanned complex system purchased overseas must be mounted together. In order to successfully design/construction a multi-mission modular prototype battle ship and turn it into timely power, it is necessary to apply a new technology so that it can be installed flexibly in a limited space and time. However, the existing welding installation method not only limits flexibility in design/construction due to safety problems, but also has an inherent problem that the cost and time required to correct defects and supplements are excessive. Therefore, this study introduces the current status of next-generation installation devices developed/applied in the advanced navy and the field demonstration results applied to battle ships to provide flexibility in this respect.

기존의 모바일 기기들은 일반화된 고정 인터페이스 상태의 제품으로, 사용자가 단순 학습을 통해 반복된 인터렉션과 구성만을 이용하는 수준이었으나 최근과 같이 기기가 지능적이고 다양화되면서 개인의 요구와 특성을 반영한 인터페이스 방법들을 요구하기 시작하였다. 이에 따라 일반적 성향에 맞추어진 Universal UI와 개인의 특성에 맞춰진 Customizing UI의 양립적 이슈는 지속적으로 대치되어 왔다. 그러므로 이를 서로 적절한 수준에서 상호 보완하여 디자인하는 것은 그 형태나 속성을 떠나 최신 UI의 기본적인 필요충분조건이 되었다. Universal UI는 인식과 행동패턴을 달리하는 사람들의 공통분모를 찾아냄으로써 표준화의 Solution을 찾아낼 수 있었지만 Customizing에 대한 해답은 사용자 심리, 문화, 역사까지 고려해야 한다. 우리는 이 두 부분을 모두 만족하는 다방면의 멘탈모델 수립과 UT검증을 통해 모바일 기기에서 최적의 인터페이스 개발을 진행하게 되었다. 이러한 Customizing에 대한 연구는 기기 사용자의 지역과, 문화적 특성에 따라 최적화된 인터페이스를 제공할 수 있기에 기기 제조사는 Future work을 위해서라도 이러한 부분에의 충분한 연구 의의가 있다고 할 수 있다. 우리는 본 논문에서와 같은 Personalization과, 선호 기능을 좀 더 쉽게 적응하고 사용할 수 있도록 하는 Customization 을 통해 사용자의 성향을 적극 반영할 수 있는 모바일 인터페이스 제품 개발로 한 단계 발전시켰다고 본다.

This study introduces a technique for improving the elastomeric-isolator performance using modular devices. The modular devices are shear resistance block, polymer spring, displacement acceptance guide, and anti-falling block. They are installed on the elastomeric isolator as a supplementary device. Each modularized device improves the isolator performance by performing step-by-step actions according to the seismic intensity and displacement. The PRB isolation device works in four stages, depending on the seismic magnitude, to satisfy the target performance. It is designed to accommodate design displacement in the first stage and large magnitude of earthquakes in the second and third stages. This design prevents superstructures from falling in the fourth stage due to large-magnitude earthquakes by increasing the capacity limit of the elastomeric isolator. In this study, the PRB isolation device is analyzed using finite element analysis to verify that the PRB isolation device works as intended and it can withstand loads corresponding to large-magnitude earthquakes. The performance of the PRB isolation device is validated by the analysis, which is further corroborated by actual experiments.

This paper describes a method for scalable hardware implementation of modular inversion. The proposed scalable architecture has a one-dimensional array of processing elements (PEs) that perform arithmetic operations in 32-bit word, and its performance and hardware size can be adjusted depending on the number of PEs used. The hardware operation of the scalable processor for modular inversion was verified by implementing it on Spartan-6 FPGA device. As a result of logic synthesis with a 180-nm CMOS standard cells, the operating frequency was estimated to be in the range of 167 to 131 MHz and the gate counts were in the range of 60,000 to 91,000 gate equivalents when the number of PEs was in the range of 1 to 10. When calculating 256-bit modular inverse, the average performance was 18.7 to 118.2 Mbps, depending on the number of PEs in the range of 1 to 10. Since our scalable architecture for computing modular inversion in GF(p) has the trade-off relationship between performance and hardware complexity depending on the number of PEs used, it can be used to efficiently implement modular inversion processor optimized for performance and hardware complexity required by applications.

The RMP consists of a basic module and more than one extended module that offers specified functions to a portable platform based on the circumstances and purposes of the users. The extend module for specified purposes is connected to the basic module using a common interface that offers interoperability to the traditional interfaces. This paper gives the results of a survey to determine specifications of a reconfigurable mobile platform. Utilizing the results of the survey, we propose a prototype of the reconfigurable mobile platform to enable specialized functions. The design objective is to provide specialized functions required for user specific needs related to their age and physical condition. In addition, it can be used for mobile healthcare applications that are efficient in improving the user's health conditions by executing medical analysis and prescriptions.
