Fluid-elastic instability in an air-water two-phase cross-flow has been experimentally investigated using two different arrays of straight tube bundles: normal square (NS) array and rotated square (RS) array tube bundles with the same pitch-to-diameter ratio of 1.633. Experiments have been performed over wide ranges of mass flux and void fraction. The quantitative tube vibration displacement was measured using a pair of strain gages and the detailed orbit of the tube motion was analyzed from high-speed video recordings. The present study provides the flow pattern, detailed tube vibration response, damping ratio, hydrodynamic mass, and the fluid-elastic instability for each tube bundle. Tube vibration characteristics of the RS array tube bundle in the two-phase flow condition were quite different from those of the NS array tube bundle with respect to the vortex shedding induced vibration and the shape of the oval orbit of the tube motion at the fluid-elastic instability as well as the fluid-elastic instability constant.

Various techniques for optimizing the performance indices of sonar arrays have been discussed, Maximizing the directivity or beamforming technique with constraints have been studied, however these performances are adapted on the condition of isotropic linear array. In this paper we discuss the problems resulting from application of conformal array by using previous techniques. Finally, we could get a desired beam pattern after use of the compensated weight vector to solve the problems.

This paper proposes an enhanced adaptive genetic algorithm(EAGA) dedicated to pattern synthesis of array antenna which conforms to a curved surface of rotation with quadratic function. EAGA combines adaptive genetic algorithm(AGA) with invasive weed optimization(IWO) for the faster convergence and the lower cost value of the cost function. The amplitude and phase of each excited weighting factor are optimized to meet the required goals using EAGA. The EAGA results indicate that the proposed algorithm is superior to AGA when applied to the problem of conformal array antenna pattern synthesis.

In this paper, a cylindrical hybrid antenna which is spatially fed by an off-set linear feed array is described to form complex beam patterns. The linear feed array consists of twelve micro-strip patch elements and forms a flat-topped beam pattern with a beam-width of $90^{\circ}$ in the horizontal plane. The vertical curve on the cylindrical reflector with the linear feed array is shaped in order to form a cosecant beam pattern within the range of $-5^{\circ}$ to $-25^{\circ}$ in the vertical plane. To form complex beam patterns, the hybrid antenna with cylindrical reflector aperture of $140{\times}50\;cm$ was designed and fabricated to be operated within the IMT 2000 service band, and also electrical performances of the antenna were measured and analyzed.

In the sum and difference pattern synthesis problem of the equi-spaced monopulse tracking linear array antennas, an efficient numerical approach to deriving the relative excitation current weights of antenna elements is presented for the desired patterns. This method is based on the optimum perturbation of null points which are inherent to the Schelkunoffs polynomial representing the pattern array factor. Accordingly, opposite to the conventional method in which the excitation weights are directly optimized, this method is advantageous in that the patterns with the desired individual sidelobe levels(SLLs) and the corresponding excitation weights are easily synthesized by the control of null points. Furthermore, it is showed that two types of difference patterns can be synthesized as imposing the different initial values of null points in the optimization process. The proposed method is numerically validated by synthesizing the patterns with the arbitrary SLLs and substituting the extracted results into the array factor equation.

In this paper we propose a plasmonic color filter with a novel nanopattern. The suggested pattern, called a "polyperiodic hole array" (PPHA), is introduced to solve the angle dependence of the optical response that originates from the periodic structure. We set the diameter and period of the hole to make a green color filter, and set the unit-cell size and metal and dielectric thicknesses in consideration of the propagation length and skin depth. The periodic hole arrays are locally rotated to make a PPHA pattern, resulting in a globally aperiodic yet partially periodic pattern. As a result, compared to a general pattern, the PPHA nanostructured color filter has a maximum 40% improvement in spectral shift when the angle of incidence is increased from 0° to 30°. Transmittance reduction was also alleviated by 30%. This work will improve the performance of nanostructured color filters and help with nanotechnology being applied industrially to imaging devices, including displays and image sensors.

In this paper, an analysis about the elevation angle accuracy degradation of an APAR(Airport Precision Approach Radar) due to the multi-path effect using a phased array antenna was performed. An APAR installed around a runway of airport will be continuously affected in a runway surface of the fixed environment. In this paper, an analysis about the elevation angle accuracy degradation of APAR due to the multi-path effect of runway surface was conducted through a calculation of monopluse slope and sum/difference beam pattern analysis of array antenna. Also, a difference pattern for monopulse to minimize this degradation was optimized in an appropriate configuration to improve a elevation angle accuracy. Finally, a degree of improvement of elevation angle accuracy was confirmed by calculating a monopulse slope including the ground reflection after applying optimized difference patterns of array antenna.

The radiation characteristics of a pin array patch antenna phased array are compared to those of a conventional patch antenna phased array. The performance of a pin array patch antenna phased array is much improved than that of a conventional patch antenna phased array because the mutual coupling between the adjacent pin array patch antennas is very small compared to that between the adjacent conventional patch antennas. The radiation characteristics of a pin array patch antenna phased array show the superior performance such as low variation of the gain of the main beam and the side lobe level for the variation of the direction of the main beam.

As power consumption is maximized, research on augmented reality-based monitoring systems for on-site facility managers to maintain and repair power facilities is being actively conducted as individual power brokerages and power production facilities increase. However, in the case of existing augmented reality-based monitoring systems, it is difficult to accurately detect patterns due to problems such as external environment, facility complexity, and interference with the lighting environment, and it is not possible to match various sensing information and service information for power facilities to one pattern. there is a problem. For this reason, since sensor information is matched using a single image pattern for each sensor of a power facility, a plurality of image patterns are required to augment and provide all information. In this paper, we propose a single image pattern arrangement method that matches and provides a plurality of information through an array combination of feature patterns in a single image composed of a plurality of feature patterns.

Miniature spectrometers can be applied for various purposes in wide areas. This paper shows how a wellmade spectrometer on-a-chip of a low performance and low-cost filter-array can be used for recognizing types of red wine. Light spectra are processed through a filter-array of a spectrometer after they have passed through the wine in the cuvettes. Without recovering the original target spectrum, pattern recognition methods are introduced to detect the types of wine. A wavelength cross-correlation turns out to be a good distance metric among spectra because it captures their simultaneous movements and it is affine invariant. Consequently, a well-designed spectrometer is reliability in terms of its repeatability.
