A high speed automated pitch variation unit (HAPU) related to semiconductor category sorting movement of the test handler system was developed. In the design process, 'DMADOV' step of 6-Sigma method has been applied. The design result for the desirable pitch variation was a 3:1 reduction rack-pinion and a linkage which are operated by servomotors. The realization and reliability of the mechanism was obtained at the design stage by FEM analysis, and by robust design using Taguchi orthogonal array against weight and deformation. Finally, the validity of the high speed variation mechanism was confirmed via inspection using a high speed camera while performing pitch variation.

The purpose of this study is to examine the variation of pitch contour observed in the reading of Korean sentences produced by Chinese Korean-learners. In the reading context, Korean sentence intonation can be described by considering accentual phrases' pitch pattern and intonational phrases' boundary tone. But when APs and IPs connect to each other to form sentences, another aspect of speech production must be considered, that is declination of pitch contour. So, in order to examine how Chinese speakers produce Korean sentence intonation, we have analysed the sentences' pitch contours produced by fourteen Chinese speakers differing in proficiency, and compared them to pitch contours produced by six Korean native speakers. The results show that Chinese speakers tend to decline the pitch contour in shorter sentences, but for longer sentences, the declination was not observed. Moreover, even though Chinese speakers produced sentences with declination, internal tonal modulation differs from native speakers.

The present study examines whether pitch range variation in North Kyunsang Korean shows a categorical or continuous function. Specifically, the study is focused on the data imitated by adults and children in the North Kyungsang region. To investigate pitch range variation, the log-produced f0 intervals were measured and statistically analyzed. The results of the study are as follows. First, both the adults' and children's imitations were more categorical than continuous, especially for the HL-LH patterns. For the other pitch accent patterns, such as HH-HL and HH-LH, the curves were continuous or flat for most of the speakers. Second, the children's imitations were poorer than those of the adults. That is, the children's imitative responses were shown as more continuous or flat curves than categorical. For the children, the HL-LH pattern showed a categorical function at the midpoint of the curves, though the shifts were not as distinctive as the adults' data. This implies that the imitative responses of children follow the perceptual and productive trace of adults' speech behavior.

There are sentences where sentence stress is imposed on a specific word. These sentences are called 'focused sentences'. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the variation of pitch, duration, amplitude in focused words. It is noted that pitch of a focused word is higher than that of unfocused words irrespective of the accentual pattern, and that contour tones such as HL or LH are realized longer when these tones appear in focused words. Not only the noun but also the following particle like '-boda' is higher when these words are in focus. Hence pitch is proved to be the most salient prosodic feature of the focused sentence.

Temperature variation happens in micro prism roll mold processing system during machining the prism pattern roll mold using manufacturing optical films of LCD (liquid crystal display). This temperature variation induces pitch errors of the prism patterns. The temperature variation displaces the positions of the diamond cutting tool on the roll which was coated by the copper. In order to prevent the pitch errors, the stabilizing the temperature of machining environment is needed. Therefore, the researching on the temperature variation of the ultra-precision roll mold processing system on the machining of micro prism rot 1 mold is needed. In this paper, the temperature variation of micro prism roll mold processing system is researched, the influence is analyzed, and the study for reducing the pitch errors carried out.

The aim of this study is to develop an the assessment program for the singing voice which is based on the physiological and acoustic methods. 22 sopranos, 6 mezzo sopranos, 4 tenors and 4 baritones participated to these experiments. The results measured by Visi-Pitch, spectrograph, and strobo-scope can be summarized as follows: (1) The maximum phonation time of singers must over 14 second higher with one deep inspiration (2) The parts classified by vocal range using Visi-Pitch: soprano between 167Hz $\sim$1,190Hz, mezzo soprano between 146Hz$\sim$956Hz, tenor between 75Hz$\sim$503Hz and baritone between 73 Hz and 385 Hz. (3) Longitudinal glottal size of singers decreases depending on the high-low pitch variation while lattitudinal glottal size increases depending on high-low pitch variation. (4) Well-trained singers show over 5 times the vibrato rate of untrained singers and regular pitch variation during measured periods. Vibrato's intensity do not over 3 dB. (5) Singer's formant indicates professional voice depending on the each parts: 3,207 Hz for soprano, 3,057 Hz for mezzo soprano, 2,754 Hz for tenor and 2,560 Hz for baritone.. (6) $F_1$ of singing voice is higher than that of speech while $F_2\;and\;F_3$ of singing voice are lower than those of speech.

Properties of Precursor pitch derived from petroleum residue were studied physical and chemical analysis method for investigation of production of pitch fiber. For preparing of those precursor pitches it was carried out a temperature and time variation experiment i reactor. It was demonstrated the precursor pitch prepared in this study to have a similar properties to Ashland precursor pitch capable of bulk mesophase formation from the results of the basic analysis, that is, molecular weight distribution, coking yield, carbon content, chemical composition, etc.

본 연구는 제 2언어 억양습득 과정에서 나타나는 언어 보편적 간섭현상인 피치대역(음역) 축소현상과모국어 간섭현상이 어떤 양상으로 상호작용하며 한국어 습득과정에서 어떤 순서로 나타나는지 중국인 한국어 학습자들을 통해 살펴보았다. 본 연구에는 7명의 한국어 원어민 화자와 초·중·고급 수준의 중국인 한국어 학습자 각 10명 총 37명이 발화 실험에 참여하였다. 연구 참여자들은 난이도가 다른 한국어 담화 4개와 이를 중국어로 번역한 중국어 담화 4개를 낭독 발화하였다. 한국어화자와 중국인 학습자들이 산출한 음성자료는 음성분석 프로그램 Praat을 사용하여 각 문장별로 Pitch span, Pitch level, Pitch dynamic quotient(PDQ), 왜도와 첨도를 측정하였고 이후 언어 간 분석, 그룹 간 분석, 그룹 내 분석을 통해 두 현상의 상호작용양상을 살펴보았다. 언어 간 분석결과 중국어는 한국어보다 높은 Pitch span과 Pitch level로 특징지어졌다. 이를 바탕으로 초·중·고급 중국인 학습자들의 한국어 발화문에 대한 그룹 간 분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 초급과 중급 학습자들에게서는 모국어 간섭보다는 음역 축소현상이 두드러지게 나타났으며 고급 학습자들은 음역 축소현상이 완화되어 한국 화자에 근접한 양상을 보여주었다. 중국인 학습자들이 발화한 목표어인 한국어와 모국어인 중국어 문장을 대상으로 한 그룹 내 분석에서도 숙달도가 높을수록 모국어와 목표어 간 피치 편차가 줄어들어 음역 축소현상이 완화되었다. 문장 내 피치 변동 범위를 파악하기 위한 PDQ분석에서 중국어 문장은 한국어 문장보다 음역 변동범위가 크다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그룹 간 분석에서는 초·중급 학습자들의 PDQ가 한국어와 중국어보다 현저히 낮은 값을 보였다. 고급학습자들도 한국어나 중국어보다 낮은 수치를 보였으나 한국어에 근접한 양상으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 바탕으로 숙달도가 낮은 화자일수록 음역 축소 현상이 두드러지게 나타나며 고급 화자의 경우 목표어인 한국어와 유사한 양상으로 실현됨을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구의 분석 대상인 음성학적 층위에서는 모국어 간섭현상이 뚜렷하게 관찰되지 않았다.

본 논문은 자연스러운 여성 합성음을 위한 피치 변화 법칙을 세웠다. 피치 변화 법칙이 적용되는 기본 단위, 즉 억양구는 주로 어절(들)로 이것의 첫번째, 두번째, 마지막 음절의 피치값을 연결해 피치 변화 곡선을 형성하였는데, 첫번째, 두번째 음절의 피치값은 각 음절의 초성에 따라, 마지막 음절의 피치값은 기능어의 종류에 따라 결정되었다. 억양구 사이에는 '쉼(pause)이 있는 경계' 또는 '쉼이 없는 경계'가 오며, 쉼이 있는 경계에는 relaxation이 있다. 이러한 억양구의 피치 변화 곡선, 경계 현상들이 모여 한 문장의 피치 턴을 만들었다.

The objective of this study is to investigate the heat transfer performance of flat plate finned-tube heat exchangers with large fin pitch. In this study, twenty-two heat exchangers were tested with a variation of fin pitch, number of tube row, and tube alignment. The heat transfer coefficient decreased with a reduction of the fin pitch and an increase of the number of tube row. The staggered tube alignment improved heat transfer performance more than $10\%$ compared to the inline tube alignment. A heat transfer correlation was developed from the measured data for flat plate finned-tubes with large fin pitch. The correlation yielded good predictions of the measured data with mean deviations of $3.6\%\;and\;6.4\%$ for the inline and staggered tube alignment, respectively.
