In this paper, we derive analytical expressions for the exact pairwise error probability (PEP) of a space-time coded system operating over spatially correlated fast (constant over the duration of a symbol) and slow (constant over the length of a code word) fad­ing channels using a moment-generating function-based approach. We discuss two analytical techniques that can be used to evaluate the exact-PEPs (and therefore, approximate the average bit error probability (BEP)) in closed form. These analytical expressions are more realistic than previously published PEP expressions as they fully account for antenna spacing, antenna geometries (uniform linear array, uniform grid array, uniform circular array, etc.) and scattering models (uniform, Gaussian, Laplacian, Von-mises, etc.). Inclusion of spatial information in these expressions provides valuable insights into the physical factors determining the performance of a space-time code. Using these new PEP expressions, we investigate the effect of antenna spacing, antenna geometries and azimuth power distribution parameters (angle of arrival/departure and angular spread) on the performance of a four-state QPSK space-time trellis code proposed by Tarokh et al. for two transmit antennas.

External bonding of steel or FRP plates to reinforced concrete (RC) structures has been a popular method for strengthening RC structures; however, unexpected premature failure often occurs due to debonding between the concrete and the epoxy. We proposed a Coulomb criterion with a constant failure surface as the debonding failure criterion for the concrete-epoxy interface. Diagonal shear bonding tests were conducted to determine the debonding properties that were related to the failure criterion, such as the angle of internal friction and the coefficient of cohesion. In addition, an interface element that utilized the Coulomb criterion was implemented in a nonlinear finite element analysis program to simulate debonding failure behavior. Experimental studies and numerical analysies on RC beams strengthened by an externally bonded steel or FRP plate were used to determine the range of the coefficient of cohesion. The results that were presented prove that premature failure loads of strengthened RC beams can be predicted with using the bonding properties and the finite element program with including the proposed Coulomb criterion.

107P/(4015) Wilson-Harrington is one of possible candidates of the dormant or inactive comet nuclei. It was discovered on a photographic plate exposed with the 48-inch Schmidt at Palomar Observatory on 1949 November 19 UT, displaying the faint extended cometary tail. No comet activity has not been after 1949 apparition. Here we present the optical observations of 107P/(4015) Wilson - Harrington during 2009/2010 apparition taken in search of low-level comet activity. Our photometric and spectroscopic data were collected 28 - 86 days after the perihelion passage on 2009 October 22 in a wide range of solar phase angle of 39-68 degree. A disk-integrated phase function was constructed, giving a geometric albedo of 0.055+/-0.012, phase integral of q=0.34, and Bond albedo of A_B=0.019. The photometric property shows profile similar to low albedo asteroids and comet nuclei. Any emission lines were found in our spectrum, giving a flat reflectance similar to low albedo asteroids. Although we could not find any evidence for the comet activity in our photometric and spectroscopic data, we found an upper limit of the fractional active area of 0.001%. We derived the upper limit of the optical depth of the dust trail and tail 7x10^{-10}. We conclude that 107P/(4015)Wilson-Harrington became completely dormant or inactive in 2009/2010 return.

This paper presents an implementation of high-dynamic performance control system of Reluctance Synchronous Motor(RSM) drives for an industrial servo drive system with direct torque control(DTC). The estimation of the stator flux and torque are obtained by using flux observer which a saturated inductance Ld and Lq of d-q axises can be compensated by using the neural network from measuring the modulus and angle of the stator current space vector. To obtain fast torque response and maximum torque/current, the reference command flux is ensured by imposing Ids=Iqs. The control strategy is proposed to fast response and optimal efficiency for RSM drive. The developed digitally high-performance control system are shown a good response characteristic of control results and high performance features using 1.0kW RSM.

This paper presents the details of indigenous development of the piezovibrocone and calibration chamber. The developed cone has a cylindrical friction sleeve of $150cm^2$ surface area, capped with a $60^{\circ}$ apex angle conical tip of $15cm^2$ cross sectional area. It has a hydraulic shaker, coupled to the cone penetrometer with a linear displacement unit. The hydraulic shaker can produce cyclic load in different types of wave forms (sine, Hover sine, triangular, rectangular and external wave) at a range of frequency 1-10 Hz with maximum amplitude of 10 cm. The piezovibrocone can be driven at the standard rate of 2 cm/sec using a loading unit of 10 ton capacity. The calibration chamber is of size $2m{\times}2m{\times}2m$. The sides of the chamber and the top as well as the bottom portions are rigid. It has a provision to apply confining pressure (to a maximum value of $4kg/cm^2$) through the flexible rubber membrane inlined with the side walls of the calibration chamber. The preliminary static as well as dynamic cone penetration tests have been done sand in the calibration chamber. From the experimental results, an attempt has been made to classify the soil based on friction ratio ($f_R$) and the cone tip resistance ($q_c$).

Purpose： The purpose of this study is to describe a distributed circuit approach to high frequency volume coil design illustrated with specific coils built accordingly and results obtained from animal studies at 3.0 tesla. Method： All experiments were conducted on 3T MRI system (Medinus Co., Ltd. Korea). The tuned TEM resonator measures 15cm outer diameter. by 10cm inside diameter by 30cm in length. The inside diameter and length were determined by animals body or head size (eg. rats or small dogs, etc.) while the outer diameter was chosen for compactness with some sacrifice of the optimal coil Q predicted for a larger cavity. A spin echo sequence with a TR/TE/flip angle=500/12.4ms/$75^{\circ}$was used to check image qualities with phantom. The breed of rat which used for animal images was Sprague-dawley(SD) and was anesthetic using ketamin hydrochloride 75mg/kg.

this paper presents an implementation of digital control system of speed sensorless for Reluctance Synchronous Motor (RSM) drives with direct torque control (DTC). The problem of DTC for high-dynamic performance RSM drive is generating a nonlinear torque due to a saturated nonlinear inductance curve with various load currents. The control system consists of stator flux observer, compensating inductance look-up table, rotor position/speed/torque estimator, two hysteresis band controllers, an optimal switching look-up table, IGBT voltage source unverter, and TMS320C31 DSP controller. The stator flux observer is based on the combined voltage and current model with stator flux feedback adapitve control that inputs are the compensated inductances, current and voltage sensing of motor terminal with estimated rotor angle for wide speed range. The rotor position is estimated rotor speed is determined by differentiation of the rotor position used only in the current model part of the flux observer for a low speed operation area. It does not requrie the knowledge of any montor paramenters, nor particular care for moter starting, In order to prove the suggested control algorithm, we have simulation and testing at actual experimental system. The developed sensorless control system is showing a good speed control response characterisitic result and high performance features in 20/1500 rpm with 1.0Kw RSM having 2.57 ratio of d/q reluctance.

This paper researches a modeling and experiment of 50kW diesel generator in grid-connected mode. The output of diesel generator can be calculated by the phase difference between voltage and current as well as the diesel generator parameter such as mutual impedance, field current and rotor angle. Considering the different d-q frame impedance, the output of diesel generator is analyzed for equation and verified by simulation. The diesel generator modeled by considering the time delay for actuator, diesel engine and exciter. The controller of diesel generator is divided into governor and exciter. The governor consists of speed controller and active power controller, where speed controller maintains frequency as 60Hz and active power tracks active power reference. On the other hand, the exciter consists of voltage controller and reactive power controller, where voltage controller controls $380V_{LL}$ and reactive power is controlled as zero. When the active power reference is changed as 0.1pu in the grid connected mode, the active power takes 10 seconds to reach the steady state and the reactive power is maintains as zero. The 50kW diesel generator is tested and experiment results are well matched with the simulation results.

자동차 점화장치는 전원으로부터 공급된 낮은 전압을 점화코일을 통하여 연소실의 혼합기를 연소시키기에 충분한 고전압을 발생시키는 장치이며, 점화장치의 핵심은 점화코일이다. 이 점화코일은 절연성능이 우수한 절연재료가 사용되지만 고전압의 발생으로 점화코일 내부에서 일어나는 전기적 열화로 인해 누설전류가 흐르게 되어 전기적 고장을 초래할 수 있다. 이로 인하여 절연재료의 수명은 단축되며, 또한 점화코일에 전류가 흐름으로써 코일 내부에서 발생하는 온도변화에 따른 절연열화로 점화코일의 성능이 저하될 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 점화코일에 사용되고 있는 절연재료에 전압이 인가될 때 발생할 수 있는 비파괴검사의 일종인 부분방전 측정을 통하여 전압변화에 따른 에폭시 성형 점화코일의 위상각($\Phi$) - 방전전하량(q) - 발생빈도수(n)의 특성 변화를 조사하고 분석함으로써 점화코일의 수명을 예측하여 자동차 점화장치의 성능진단과 정보제공을 자동차 전기장치의 발전에 도움이 될 것을 기대하며, 온도상승에 따른 점화코일의 부분방전 특성을 실험하고 분석하였다.

In order to obtain ultra-high resolution MRI images, research and development of 11 T or higher superconducting magnets have been actively conducted in the world, recently. The high-temperature superconductor (HTS), first discovered in 1986, was very limited in industrial application until mid-2010, despite its high critical current characteristics in the high magnetic field compared to the low-temperature superconductor. This is because HTS magnets were unable to operate stably due to the thermal damage when a quench occurred. With the introduction of no-insulation (NI) HTS magnet winding technology that does not burn electrically, it could be expected that the HTS magnets are dramatically reduced in weight, volume, and cost. In this paper, a 6 T-class NI HTS magnet for basic characteristic analysis was designed, and a distributed equivalent circuit model of the NI coils was configured to analyze the charging current characteristics caused by excitation current, and the charge delay phenomenon and loss were predicted through the development of a simulation model. Additionally, the critical current of the NI HTS magnets was estimated, considering the magnetic field, its angle and temperature with a given current. The loss due to charging delay characteristics was analyzed and the result was shown. It is meaningful to obtain detailed operation technology to secure a stable operation protocol for a 6T NI HTS magnet which is actually manufactured.
