The properties of AlTiN films by a cathodic arc deposition process have been studied. Oblique angle deposition has been applied to deposit AlTiN films. AlTiN films have been deposited on stainless steel (SUS304) and cemented carbide (WC) at a substrate temperature of $500^{\circ}C$. AlTiN films were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, glow-discharge light spectroscopy, micro-vickers hardness, and nanoindenter. When applying a current of 50 A to the cathodic arc source, it showed that the density of macroparticle of AlTiN films was 5 lower than other deposition conditions. With the increase of the bias voltage applied to the substrate up to -150 V, the density of macroparticle was decreased. The change of the $N_2$ flow rate during coating process made no influence on the film properties. For the multi-layered films, the film prepared at oblique angle of $60^{\circ}$ showed the highest hardness of 28 GPa and $H^3/E^2$ index of 0.18. AlTiN films have been shown a good oxidation resistance up to $800^{\circ}C$.

When and Where, What kind of agricultural products will be produced and provided for the market? It is a commercial requirement, and also an academic questions to remote sensing technology. Crop physiology analysis and growth monitoring are important elements for precision agriculture management. Remote sensing technology supplies us more selections and available spaces in this dynamic change study by producing images of different spatial, spectral and temporal resolutions. Especially, the hyperspectral remote sensing should do play a key role in crop growth investigation at national, regional and global scales. In the past five years, Chinese academy of sciences and Japan NTT-DATA have made great efforts to establish a prototype information service system to dynamically survey the vegetable planting situation in Nagano area of Japan mainly based on remote sensing data. For such concern, a flexible and light-duty flight system and some practical data processing system and some necessary background information should be rationally made together. In addition, some studies are also important, such as quick pre-processing for hyperspectral data, Multi-temporal vegetation index analysis, hyperspectral image classification in support of GIS data, etc. In this paper, several spectral data analysis models and a designed airborne platform are provided and discussed here.

Multilevel and Multivariate Structural Equation Mpdel is applied to handle the hierarchical nature of the data and explain complex relationship among socioeconomic factors of individuals and household, activity participation, and travel behavior using Puset Sound Transportation Panel data. From analysis, variations of individual activity participation and travel behavior can be divided into two categories : Within-household variation and Between-households variation. Empirical results show that the interdependency index(p) of variables for household members within a household is between 0.13 and 0.33 indicating high interdependency. These results suggest that Multilevel and Multivariate SEM approach is an appropriate modeling methodology and gives additional information for activity participation and travel behavior. Also most of personal and household characteristics influence on activity participation and travel behavior within a household as well as between households.

This paper is to analyze characteristics of transfer trips and to identify impacts of land use on them. Using the smart transport card data of Seoul on a weekday in April 2013, we explored general characteristics of the transfer trips such as spatial and temporal distributions, transfer types, and geographical patterns of transfer trips. Then, the multiple regression model for the transfer trips was developed, considering land use as well as socio-economic variables as explanatory ones. For the characteristics of the transfer trips, their ratio to the total trips accounts for 26.7%. Nearly 87% of the trips are one-time transferred, and 64.7% are bus-subway transfer trips. In addition, the transfer trips are more likely to appear nearby subway stations and business facilities. The regression model indicates that land use variables such as the floor areas of business facilities and department stores and mixed land use index significantly positively affect the transfer trips. Our results can be used as basic data for choosing feasible locations of multi-modal transfer centers in urban areas.

국가하천의 주변지역을 체계적이고 계획적으로 조성 이용하여 난개발을 방지하고 지속가능한 발전을 도모하며, 그에 따른 이익을 하천의 정비 및 관리 등에 활용함으로써 공공복리의 증진에 기여함을 목적으로 하는 친수구역활용에 관한 특별법이 곧 시행될 예정이다. 친수는 단순히 하천 보전과 상대되는 수변이용의 측면이 아니라 하천의 경관, 생태계, 물 등 전체적인 하천공간에서 이루어지는 인간의 활동과 심리적 만족감으로 해석할 수 있다. 이러한 친수활동 유형을 정립하기 위하여 전문가 및 실무자들의 도움으로 설문지를 작성하고, 조사하였다. 또한 평가 항목간의 중요도를 합리적으로 부여하고자 전문가 집단 활용을 통한 다기준의사결정 기법 중 계층분석과정 AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process)와 이의 일반적인 형태인 ANP(Analytic Network Process) 기법을 이용하여 비교 분석하여 보았다. AHP는 의사결정의 목표 또는 평가기준이 다수이며 복합적인 경우, 다수의 속성들을 계층적으로 분류하여 각 속성의 중요도를 파악함으로써 최적 대안을 선정하는 기법으로 다수의 목표, 다수의 평가기준, 다수의 의사결정주체가 포함되어 있는 의사결정 문제를 계층화하여 해결한다. 그러나 의사결정 문제는 대부분 요소들 간의 수평적 상호작용과 수직종속성이 존재하기 때문에 단순히 계층적 구조만으로는 설명할 수 없는 경우가 있다. ANP는 AHP 분석을 확장한 개념으로 평가 요소가 계층구조를 가지고 있으면서 각 평가 요소간 네트워크 구조를 가지는 경우에 해당한다. 즉, 시스템 분석, 통합 및 조정을 위한 방법으로 요소들 간의 비선형 관계를 모델화하는 복잡한 의사결정에 적용이 가능하다. ANP는 AHP의 기본 공리인 독립성이 유지되지 않을 때도 적용할 수 있는 의사결정 방법이기 때문이다. AHP와 ANP 분석을 위해 평가기준은 하천특성, 생태환경특성, 인문환경특성, 경관, 유지관리 등으로 분류하였으며, 세부평가항목은 하천의 물리 생태학적 특성, 개발여건과 관련된 특성, 경관의 이용가치, 유지관리 용이성 등 20여 개로 나누었다. AHP와 ANP를 이용하여 친수공간 이용지수 가중치를 산정한 결과, 두 기법은 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 그러나 ANP를 이용하여 가중치를 결정하는 방법은 최종 결정의 공정성이나 신뢰성을 확보하는데 기여를 하는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper proposes the Hybrid-CRMMA adaptive equalization algorithm that is possible to improves the performance of CR-MMA based on adaptive modulus and adaptive stepsize. The 16-QAM nonconstant modulus signal is reduced to 4-QAM constant modulus signal, and the error signal were obtained based on the fixed statistic modulus of transmitted signal. It is possible to improving the currently MMA adaptive equalization performance. The proposed Hybrid-CRMMA composed of adaptive modulus which is propotional to the power of equalizer output and adaptive stepsize which is function of the nonlinearties of error signal, and its improved equalization performance were confirmed by computer simulation. For this purpose, the output signal constellation, the residual isi and maximum distortion and MSE that is for the convergence characteristics, the SER that is meaning the robustness of external noise of algorithm were used. As a result of computer simulation, it was confirmed that the proposed Hybrid-CRMMA has more superior performance in every index compared to currently CR-MMA.

The study analyzed bibliometric data of papers published in Korea Citation Index (KCI) and Web of Science (WoS) journals from 2002 to 2021. After examining size differences of KCI and WoS domains in the number of authors, institutions, and journals to put publication and citations counts in perspective, the study investigated co-authorship patterns over time to compare collaboration trends of Korean and international scholars and analyzed the data at author, institution, and journal levels to explore how the influences of authors, institutions, and journals on research output differ across domains. The study also conducted frequency-based analysis of keywords to identify key topics and visualized keyword clusters to examine topic trends. The result showed Korean LIS authors to be twice as productive as international authors but much less impactful and Korean institutions to be at comparable levels of productivity and impact in contrast to much of productivity and impact concentrated in top international institutions. Citations to journals exhibited initially increasing pattern followed by a decreasing trend though WoS journals showed far more variance than KCI journals. Co-authorship trends were much more pronounced among international publication, where larger collaboration groups suggested multi-disciplinary and complex nature of international LIS research. Keyword analysis found continuing diversification of topics in international research compared to relatively static topic trend in Korea. Keyword visualization showed WoS keyword clusters to be much denser and diverse than KCI clusters. In addition, key keyword clusters of WoS were quite different from each other unlike KCI clusters which were similar.

Helical-coil steam generator (HCSG) technology is a major design candidate for small modular reactors due to its compactness and capability to produce superheated steam with high generation efficiency. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of the passively autonomous power maneuvering by coupling the 3-D transient multi-physics of a soluble-boron-free (SBF) core with a time-dependent HCSG model. The predictor corrector quasi-static method was used to reduce the cost of the transient 3-D neutronic solution. In the numerical system simulations, the feedwater flow rate to the secondary of the HCSGs is adjusted to extract the demanded power from the primary loop. This varies the coolant temperature at the inlet of the SBF core, which governs the passively autonomous power maneuvering due to the strongly negative coolant reactivity feedback. Here, we simulate a 100-50-100 load-follow operation with a 5%/minute power ramping speed to investigate the feasibility of the passively autonomous load-follow in a 450 MW_th SBF PWR. In addition, the passively autonomous frequency control operation is investigated. The various system models are coupled, and they are solved by an in-house Fortran-95 code. The results of this work demonstrate constant steam temperature in the secondary side and limited variation of the primary coolant temperature. Meanwhile, the variations of the core axial shape index and the core power peaking are sufficiently small.

In this investigation, study of the static and dynamic behaviors of functionally graded beams (FGB) is presented using a hyperbolic shear deformation theory (HySDT). The simply supported FG-beam is resting on the elastic foundation (Winkler-Pasternak types). The properties of the FG-beam vary according to exponential (E-FGB) and power-law (P-FGB) distributions. The governing equations are determined via Hamilton's principle and solved by using Navier's method. To show the accuracy of this model (HySDT), the current results are compared with those available in the literature. Also, various numerical results are discussed to show the influence of the variation of the volume fraction of the materials, the power index, the slenderness ratio and the effect of Winkler spring constant on the fundamental frequency, center deflection, normal and shear stress of FG-beam.
