This study was accomplished to develop a pneumatic granular applicator that can be attached to the conventional ride-on rice transplanter. Operating conditions of a metering device for the applicator were determined so as to obtain the required discharge rate of granules for field application. The shape and size of diffuser was selected for the applicator and the spacing between diffusers on a boom and the boom height were determined as an optimal application condition for uniform distribution. The diffuser spacing of 1m for the fertilizer and the diffuser spacing of 0.8m for the pesticide at the boom height over 0.8m were acceptable.

Energy scavenging is a technique that converts ambient energy, for example, vibration and light, to electrical energy in order to supply power to low power electronic devices such as ubiquitous sensors. In this paper, we propose an optimal operation condition of power delivery circuit and design strategy for energy scavenging system in which the generated power is order of microwatt and, consequently, efficient handling of power is critical. We also propose that high data transmission rate is more realistic optimal design objective rather than high energy efficiency. It is shown that disconnection of load from the storage capacitor right after data transmission reduces energy wasting and that optimal value of storage capacitor can be determined at this condition. The feasibility of our propose is proved by experiments and we believe that the proposed design strategy will promote the application of piezoelectric micropower generator to the ubiquitous sensor networks.

Using the anisotropic etching characteristics of N2H4-H2O solutions, Si diaphragm was fabricated for the integrated sensors. The optimal composition and temperature of the etching solution in (100) Si etching process was established to be 50mol% N2H4 in H2O at 105\ulcorner\ulcorner for both higher etch rate (=2.6\ulcorner/min) and better surface quality of etched (100) planes. Based on the above optimal etching condition, the electrochemical etch-stop technique was employed to form n-type Si diaphragm having a thickness of 20\ulcorner and the thickness of diapragm could exactly be controlled to 20\ulcorner\ulcorner.

This study was conducted to select an optimal approach to corn waste biochar (BC) application, and to evaluate the effects of combined application of BC and inorganic fertilizer (IF) on corn growth and soil chemical properties in a pot experiment. Corn growth differed with BC application timing and BC application levels. Based on the characteristics of corn growth in pot-based experiments, the selected optimal application conditions of BC were application of $500kg\;10a^{-1}$ at 20 days before sowing. Also, the chemical properties of the tested soil with BC after corn harvesting were significantly improved than those in the other treatments. In particular, soil pH and CEC regardless of application conditions were markedly increased by 0.04~0.19 units and $0.08{\sim}2.58coml_c\;kg^{-1}$ in BC treatments than without BC treatments. Additionally, combined application of BC and IF had greater effects on corn growth than single application of BC. Therefore, the results suggest using properly BC application conditions and a combination of BC and IF for effective corn cultivation in an upland field.

기존 동조질량감쇠기의 최적설계변수에 관한 연구는 풍하중과 같은 조화하중을 받는 구조물을 대상으로 연구가 수행되었다. 본 연구에서는 수치해석을 통하여 지진하중이 작용하는 건축물에 설치되는 동조질량감쇠기의 최적 감쇠비와 동조진동수비를 구하였다. 지반특성을 단단한 지반, 연약지반, 단층 근처 지반으로 분류하고, 이들 지반특성을 고려한 수치해석을 통해 구한 동조질량감쇠기의 설계변수를 기존 연구 결과와 비교하였다. 수치해석결과 본 연구로부터 구해진 동조질량감쇠기의 설계변수값을 적용한 경우 지진하중에 의한 응답제어에 기존 연구를 통해 얻어진 변수값을 적용한 경우에 비해 더 나은 제어효과를 얻을 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Abstract A study on the Derivation of the Unit Hydrograph using Multiple Regression Moe이. The purpose of this study is to deriver an optimal unit hydrograph suing the multiple regression model, particularly when only small amount of data is available. The presence of multicollinearity among the input data can cause serious oscillations in the derivation of the unit hydrograph. In this case, the oscillations in the unit hydrograph ordinate are eliminated by combining the data. The data used in this study are based upon the collection and arrangement of rainfall-runoff data(1977-1989) at the Soyang-river Dam site. When the matrix X is the rainfall series, the condition number and the reciprocal of the minimum eigenvalue of XTX are calculated by the Jacobi an method, and are compared with the oscillation in the unit hydrograph. The optimal unit hydrograph is derived by combining the numerous rainfall-runoff data. The conclusions are as follows; 1)The oscillations in the derived unit hydrograph are reduced by combining the data from each flood event. 2) The reciprocals of the minimum eigen\value of XTX, 1/k and the condition number CN are increased when the oscillations are active in the derived unit hydrograph. 3)The parameter estimates are validated by extending the model to the Soyang river Dam site with elimination of the autocorrelation in the disturbances. Finally, this paper illustrates the application of the multiple regression model to drive an optimal unit hydrograph dealing with the multicollinearity and the autocorrelation which cause some problems.

Recently, a technology based on the proportional integral (PI) control have grown rapidly owing to the needs for the robust capacity of the controllers from industrial building sectors. However, PI controller generally requires tuning of gains for optimal control when the outside weather condition changes. The present study presents the possibility of reinforcement learning (RL) control algorithm with PI controller adapted in the HVAC system. The optimal design criteria of RL controller was proposed in the environment chamber experiment and a theoretical analysis was also conducted using TRNSYS program.

Friction welding is a very useful joining process to weld metals which have axially symmetric cross section. In this paper, for the friction welding with tube-to-tube shape, the feasibility of industry application was determined using analyzing mechanical properties of weld and optimized welding variables was suggested. In order to accomplish this object, rotating speed, friction heating pressure, and friction heating time were selected as the major process variables and the experiment was performed in three levels of each parameter. Weld characteristic was investigated in terms of weld shape and metal loss, and 7mm of metal loss was regarded as the optimal metal loss. By tensile test, tensile strength and yielding strength was measured and fracture was occurred at base metal. In order to optimize the welding condition, fitness function was defined with respect to metal loss and yielding strength and the fitness values for each welding condition could be calculated in experimental range. Consequently, we set the optimal welding condition as the point which had maximum value of fitness function. As the result of this paper the optimal welding variables could be suggested as rotating speed was 1300 rpm, friction heating pressure was 15 MPa, and friction heating time was 10 sec.

The purpose of this paper is to decrease shotcrete rebound losses and to produce economic effectiveness at the same time in construction. The mechanical properties and quick acceleration of various shoterete mixes were analyzed, which were intuenced by several accelerators and their amouts used. And the application and construction in the felds were evaluated. The shotcrete rebounds relied on the condition of construction rather than on the quality of materials, but it is found that the decreasing of the cost and time in shotcreting under the same condition was based on the rebounds which were affected by the accelerating capability of the accelerators. The application of the accelerator was limited by the condition of tunnel construction ; such as ground water, anti-corrosive, or anti-chemistry. It is important to choose a proper accelerator. Therefore, it is necessary that better accelerators which satisfly mechanical characteristics and economy are developed. Optimal working conditions should be announced to the workers and workers' skill be improved in the shotcrete construction feld as well.

타이어 사고를 방지하기 위해 앱 인벤터와 블루투스 통신을 이용한 타이어 안전을 확인할 수 있는 애플리케이션을 개발하였다. 온도 센서로 외부 온도를 측정하여 계절의 변화를 알고 압력센서로 타이어의 공기압을 측정하여 외부 온도에 맞는 공기압을 알려주며 레이저 센서의 거리를 50mm이상과 각도를 45°로 해야 최적화된 타이어의 마모도를 측정할 수 있었다. 마모도 측정된 수치에 따라 타이어의 상태를 판단하여 앱 인벤터를 사용하여 블루투스 모듈을 통해 연동한 후 사용자의 핸드폰으로 타이어의 상태와 예상교체를 알 수 안전을 확인할 수 있는 애플리케이션을 개발하였다.
