This paper reports on the theoretical and expetimental study of the vane and cam ring motions in a variable displacement vane pump which is already used widely in various industrial and automotive applications. Dynamic equations of vane and cam ring motion and flow continuity equations are derived and then solved simultaneously using the numerical method. Vane detachment cause the pressure tipples, noise, wear in cam ring, and decrease the volumetric efficiency. Consequently, Vane detachment occurs due to excess compression in the pumping chamber, and it can be reduced by adjustment of design parmeters.

We demonstrated a single balanced mixer of the combination of high-T. superconductor (HTS) and III-V GaAs beam lead Schottky diodes operating in the mini-cryogenic chamber. The HTS hybrid mixer was designed with a center frequency of 27.5 GHz and a bandwidth of 1 GHz, and consisted of a rat-race coupler circuit with beam-lead diodes attached to its balanced ports. The HTS hybrid mixer with 1 GHz RF bandwidths exhibits a conversion loss of 6 dB. A LO-to-RF isolation was greater than 40 dB in the range of operating frequencies. Since the HTS/III-V hybrid mixer devices have lower noise and conversion loss, this technique provide us with new capabilities that can be effectively utilized in the field of local-point distribution service (LMDS) systems.

Enhancement of the ignitability was necessary to realize the lean burn engine. The characteristics of multiple-spark capacitor discharge igniter(MSCDI) usefulness of which for lean burn was examined in constant volume combustion chamber and evaluated in spark ignition engine. Noise of MSCDI for engine was restricted by adoption of low voltage control system. It was found that the adaptability for high engine speed was remarkable. Lean limit in engine with MSCDI was extended 10% than conventional coil ignition system. Also maximum brake thermal efficiency was almost enhanced 1%.

A new method is presented to determine two fundamental acoustic quantities of sound-absorbing materials such as characteristic impedance and propagation constant. In this study, the surface acoustic impedances of sound-absorbing materials are measured using the impedance tube and the anechoic chamber to determine the above acoustic quantities. The measured results are given for two typical sound-absorbing materials(glass wool and urethane foam) int the frequency range between 150 and 1, 600 Hz. The results are verified by other two known methods, which are Smith & Parrott method and Utsuno et al. method. The absorption coefficients calculated from the empirical models(Miki model for glass wool and Jung model for urethane foam) and two quantities by present method are in good agreement with the measured values.

It is well known to diesel engineers that the heat release pattern is one of the most important factors affecting engine performance. Thorough research in heat release pattern has materially helped the progress in high-speed diesel engine development . This paper is based on the research conducted at KAIST and Daewoo Heavy Industry last year. The purpose of this paper is to determine the heat release pattern in combustion chamber of MAN M type, the famous low-noise engine. Thermodynamic cycle simulation was performed using Whitehous-Way's heat release pattern with modified coefficients and Annand's heat transfer model. Instantaneous temperature and pressure of gas in cylinder could be determined by the numerical solution of simultaneous equation of mass conservation, equation of energy conservation, and state equation of ideal gas. Calculated results were compared with measured values in some details emphasizing upon the factors affecting rate of heat release. The agreement was fairly good and revealed why M type should have lower burning velocity at the early part of combustion in spite of high injection rate. Additional results by parametric studies were given in relation to fuel injection conditions for further application to engine development.

In this paper, the antenna the with linear active phased array of $1{\times}16$ operated in DBS band was designed. The antenna was composed of sixteen radiating elements, sixteen active channels and five Wilkinson power combiners with 4-channel inputs, a digital control board and a stabilizing DC bias board. The radiating element of the array has the structure of a microstrip stack patch with a left-hand circular polarization. And, each active channel consists of a low noise ampilifier, a 3-bit digital phase shifter and a variable analog attenuator. The breadboard of linear active phased array antenna was also fabricated to test the electrical performances. The radiation patterns of the antenna were measured after correcting initial phases of each active channel in aechoic chamber. And also, the beam scanning chracteristcs of $10^{\circ}$, $20^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ were measured.

This paper presents a front-end electronic circuits for signal detection on multi-gap resistive plate. The input to the circuit is the signal(voltage : -800mv, frequency : 20${\sim}$40MHZ, noise : 50mv, 1GHz) from the multi-gap resistive plate chamber and the output is the 5v pulse signal. The front-end electronic circuit consists of preamplifier, peak-detector, and comparator. Spice simulation show that the circuit has the better response time than the one of the conventional measuring instruments.

The pressure pulsation due to the gear geometry of the gerotor (generalized rotor) pump mainly occurs in an instant that the chamber of the gerotor enters the delivery port and leaves the suction one. Such a pressure pulsation may result in undesirable vibration and noise of pump components as well as cavitation in hydraulic system. Therefore, it is very important to examine the pressure characteristic of the gerotor pump at its design and analysis stages. In this paper, in order to reduce the pressure pulsation in the gerotor pump, the port plate with the relief grooves is designed by referring to as notch of vane pump and relief groove of piston pump. A series of the theoretical analyses on the pressure pulsation is performed in consideration of various design parameters of the port plate, including the installation positions of the port inlet/outlet and the groove width, and the operating conditions such as rotational velocity and delivery pressure.

This study was conducted to develop an image processing system which can classify the pig's thermoregulatory behavior under the different environmental conditions. The 4 pigs of 25kg were housed in the environmentally controlled chamber(1.4m$\times$2.2m floor space). Postural behavior of the pigs was captured with an CCD color camera. The raw behavioral images were processed by thresholoding, reduction, separation of slightly contacted pigs, labeling, noise removal, computation of number of labels, and classification of the pig's behavior. The correct classification rate of the image processing system was 97.8%(88 out of 90 testing images). The results of this study showed that the image processing system could be used for a behavior-based automatic environmental controller.

This paper introduces the development of the iterative multiple signal classification (MUSIC)-based direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation system using a rotator that can control the direction of antenna for the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) interference. The system calculates the spatial spectrum according to the noise eigenvector of all dimensions to measure the number of signals (NOS). Also, to detect the false peak, the system adjusts the array antenna's direction and checks the change's peak angles. The phase delay and gain correction values for system calibration are calculated in consideration of the chamber's structure and the characteristics of radio waves. The developed system estimated DOAs of interferences located about 1km away. The field test results show that the developed system can estimate the DOA without NOS information and detect the false peak even though the inter-element spacing is longer than the half-wavelength of the interference.
