3차원 플래시 라이다 시스템(3D flash LIDAR system)에서의 대기 산란을 해석하기 위해 몬테 카를로 복사 전달(Monte Carlo radiative transfer, MCRT) 방법을 바탕으로 수정된 수치 해석 모델인 MCRT 행렬 방법을 논의한다. MCRT 방법을 바탕으로 라이다 신호의 복사 전달 함수를 행렬 형태로 구성하며, 이는 특성 응답에 해당한다. 근축 근사에 기반하여 본 특성 응답 행렬의 중첩 및 합성곱 연산을 활용함으로써 확장된 전반적인 플래시 라이다의 전산 모사 모델을 개발한다. MCRT 행렬 방법은 기존의 몬테 카를로 기반 방법들에서 과도하게 증가할 수 있는 개별 라이다 신호의 추적을 대폭 경감시킨다. 그 결과 본 방법은 다양한 산란 조건 및 라이다 시스템 구성 환경에서도 그 신호 응답을 빠르게 획득할 수 있는 특징을 지닌다. 본 논문에서는 MCRT 행렬 방법에 기반한 전산 모델을 이용하여 상이한 대기 환경 조건에서 동작하는 3차원 플래시 라이다 시스템을 그 산란 조건, 즉, 그 가시거리에 따른 산란 계수를 달리하며 모사하고, 플래시 라이다 신호의 신호대잡음비의 악화, 신호 오류, 시공간적 확산 및 시간 지연 등 시스템상에서의 산란 효과에 의해 나타나는 다양한 현상을 수치적으로 분석한다. MCRT 행렬 방법은 자율 주행을 위한 플래시 라이다 시스템을 포함해 다양한 라이다 시스템을 분석하는데 매우 효과적으로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper shortly reviews our recent work on filled skutterudites, which are considered to be one of the most promising thermoelectric (TE) materials due to their excellent power factors and relatively low thermal conductivities. The filled skutterudite system also provides a platform for studying void filling physics/chemistry in compounds with intrinsic lattice voids. By using ab initio calculations and thermodynamic analysis, our group has made progresses in understanding the filling fraction limit (FFL) for single fillers in $CoSb_3$, and ultra-high FFLs in a few alkali-metal-filled $CoSb_3$ have been predicted and then been confirmed experimentally. FFLs in multiple-element-filled $CoSb_3$ are also investigated and anonymous filling behavior is found in a few specific systems. The calculated and measured FFLs, in both single and multiple-filled $CoSb_3$ systems, show good accordance so far. The thermal transport properties can be understood qualitatively by a phonon resonance scattering model, and it seems that a scaling rule may exist between the lattice thermal resistivity and the resonance frequency of filler atoms in filled system. Even though a few things become clear now, there are still many unsolved issues that call for further work.

An optimum design process of the broad-band multi-layered radar absorbing material, using genetic algorithm, is established for the radar cross section reduction of a complex target, which consists of multiple reflection structures, such as surface warships. It follows the successive process of radar cross section analysis, scattering center analysis, radar absorbing material design, and reanalysis of radar cross section after applying the radar absorbing material. It is demonstrated that it is very effective even in the optimum design of the multi-layer radar absorbing material. This results from the fact that the three factors, i.e.. the incident angle range, broad-band frequencies, and maximum thickness can be simultaneously taken into account by adopting the genetic algorithm.

The diffraction of waves by three bottom fixed vertical circular cylinders is investigated by using the boundary element method. This method has been successfully applied to the isolated vertical circular cylinder and now is used to study the interaction between waves and multiple vertical cylinders. In this paper, a numerical analysis by the boundary element method is developed by the linear potential theory. The numerical analysis by the boundary element method is based on Green's second theorem and introduced to an integral equation for the fluid velocity potential around the vertical circular cylinders. To verify this method, the results obtained in present study are compared with the results computed by the multiple scattering method. The results of the comparisons show strong agreement. Also in this paper, several numerical examples are given to illustrate the effects of various parameters on the wave exciting force such are the separation distance, the wave number and the incident wave angle. This numerical computation method might be used broadly for the design of various offshore structures to be constructed in the future.

Markov envelope as a theoretical solution of the parabolic wave equation with Markov approximation for the von Kármán type random medium is studied and approximated with the convolution of two probability density functions (pdf) of normal and gamma distributions considering the previous studies on the applications of Radiative Transfer Theory (RTT) and the analysis results of earthquake records. Through the approximation with gamma pdf, the constant shape parameter of 2 was determined regardless of the source distance r_o. This finding means that the scattering process has the property of an inhomogeneous single-scattering Poisson process, unlike the previous studies, which resulted in a homogeneous multiple-scattering Poisson process. Approximated Markov envelope can be treated as the normalized mean square (MS) envelope for ground acceleration because of the flat source Fourier spectrum. Based on such characteristics, the path duration is estimated from the approximated MS envelope and compared to the empirical formula derived by Boore and Thompson. The results clearly show that the path duration increases proportionately to r_o^1/2-r_o², and the peak value of the RMS envelope is attenuated by exp (-0.0033r_o), excluding the geometrical attenuation. The attenuation slope for r_o≤100 km is quite similar to that of effective attenuation for shallow crustal earthquakes, and it may be difficult to distinguish the contribution of intrinsic attenuation from effective attenuation. Slowly varying dispersive delay, also called the medium effect, represented by regular pdf, governs the path duration for the source distance shorter than 100 km. Moreover, the diffraction term, also called the distance effect because of scattering, fully controls the path duration beyond the source distance of 300 km and has a steep gradient compared to the medium effect. Source distance 100-300 km is a transition range of the path duration governing effect from random medium to distance. This means that the scattering may not be the prime cause of peak attenuation and envelope broadening for the source distance of less than 200 km. Furthermore, it is also shown that normal distribution is appropriate for the probability distribution of phase difference, as asserted in the previous studies.

In this paper, we propose one unsupervised classification technique using the degree of polarization (DoP) and the co-polarized phase-difference (CPD) statistics, instead of the entropy and alpha. It is shown that the DoP is closely related to the entropy, and the CPD to the alpha. The DoP explains the feature how much the effect of multiple reflections is contained. Hence, the DoP could be used as an important factor for classifying classes. The CPD can also be computed from the measured Mueller matrix elements. For the smooth surface scattering, the CPD is about $0^{\circ}$, and for dihedral-type scattering, the CPD is about $180^{\circ}$. A DoP-CPD diagram with appropriate boundaries between six different classes is developed based on the SAR image. The classification results are compared with the existing Entropy-alpha diagram as well as the IPL-AirSAR polarimetric data. The technique may have capability to classify an SAR image into six major classes; a bare surface, a village, a crown-layer short vegetation canopy, a trunk-layer short vegetation canopy, a crown-layer forest, and a trunk-dominated forest. Based on the DoP and CPD analysis, a simple three-component decomposition technique was also proposed.

This paper describes our design of a hybrid amplifier composed of a distributed Raman amplifier and erbium-doped fiber amplifiers for C- and L-bands. We characterize the distributed Raman amplifier by numerical simulation based on the experimentally measured Raman gain coefficient of an ordinary single mode fiber transmission line. In single channel amplification, the crosstalk caused by double Rayleigh scattering was independent of signal input power and simply given as a function of the Raman gain. The double Rayleigh scattering induced power penalty was less than 0.1 dB after 1000 km if the on-off Raman gain was below 21 dB. For multiple channel amplification, using commercially available pump laser diodes and fiber components, we determined and optimized the conditions of three-wavelength Raman pumping for an amplification bandwidth of 32 nm for C-band and 34 nm for L-band. After analyzing the conventional erbium-doped fiber amplifier analysis in C-band, we estimated the performance of the hybrid amplifier for long haul optical transmission. Compared with erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, the optical signal-to-noise ratio was calculated to be higher by more than 3 dB in the optical link using the designed hybrid amplifier.

The detection efficiency and characteristics of an optical particle counter (OPC), with various sample nozzle outlet diameters, were experimentally investigated. The OPC system, which was built with original design, was made up of a diode laser, two photodetectors, and a variety of optics such as a beam splitter and a concave mirror. The cone-shaped sampling nozzle was designed to be changeable to alter the outlet diameter, within the range of 1 to 3 mm. For samples, sets of polystyrene latex (PSL) standard particle with various sizes of 1 to $3{\mu}m$, were used. As a result, detection efficiency of the OPC greatly decreased with larger nozzle outlet diameter. Moreover, increased nozzle outlet diameter means broader sample flow, thus caused light interference and multiple scattering which results in abnormal high peaks in scattered light signal. The ratio of abnormal peaks to regular signal of single particle increased with larger nozzle outlet diameter.

일본 후지산은 역사적, 지질학적, 그리고 최근의 지진학적 징후로부터 화산활동의 재개에 의한 재해가능성이 있어 화산감시연구가 집중되고 있다. 후지산 감시활동의 일환으로 축적된 방대한 주변지역 지진자료를 바탕으로 단일산란모델에 의한 코다감쇠상수($Q_c^{-1}$)와 다중시간창분석에 의한 고유 및 산란감쇠상수 ($Q_i^{-1}$, $Q_s^{-1}$)를 측정하였다. 본 연구는 후지산 아래에 존재하는 것으로 여겨지고 있는 용암체의 감쇠구조에 초점을 맞추기 위해 정상에서 반경 5km 이내의 지대를 지진파가 통과하는 '후지산 근방', 지진파 통과지역이 모두 반경 20 km 바깥인 '먼 후지산'으로 자료를 분류하였다. 본 연구는 자료가 풍부하여 비교적 작은 오차범위를 나타내고 있는데, '후지산 근방'의 모든 감쇠상수 수 $Q^{-1}$는 '먼 후지산'에 비해 컸으며, 두 지대 공히 고주파 영역에서의 $Q_i^{-1}$값은 $Q_s^{-1}$ 값에 비해 높은 값이었다. 그러나, '후지산 근방'의 $Q_i^{-1}$ 값은 다른 화산지역에 비해 낮았는데, 이는 하와이화산과 같은 활동적인 화산에 비해 용융도의 비율이 낮거나 마그마활동이 덜한 것으로 해석된다.
