최신의 무기체계 및 전자장비들은 아군의 생존성 향상을 위해 스텔스 기술에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있기 때문에, 레이다 반사 면적을 줄이는 저피탐 기술 구현이 필요하다. 이러한 스텔스 기술을 위해 형상 설계나 전파 흡수체를 적용한 저피탐 특성 구현 방법이 널리 사용되는데, 능동위상배열 안테나는 형상 설계에 구조적인 한계가 있고 전파 흡수체 적용 시 안테나의 전기적 성능이 저하되는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 X-대역에서 동작하는 능동위상배열 안테나의 저피탐 특성 구현을 위해 전파 흡수체를 적용하기에 적합한 개별 복사소자를 선정하고, 13x13 배열 안테나를 설계 및 제작하였다. 다음으로 제작된 안테나의 흡수체 유무 및 종류에 따른 상대 RCS와 전기적 성능 측정 결과 비교를 통해 저피탐 특성은 확보하면서 전기적 성능은 동등 이상의 수준으로 유지됨을 보임으로써, 본 논문에서 제안한 저피탐 특성 구현 방법이 유효함을 보이고 전파 흡수체 적용 시 안테나 성능이 저하되는 한계를 극복할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

This work reports on the effect of plasma area on the frequency characteristics of the monostatic radar cross section (RCS) of a square metallic plate. A dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma actuator consisting of 10 rings is proposed. The actuator is fabricated in three different configurations such that only three inner rings, seven inner rings, and all rings can be biased. By applying an 18-kV bias at 1 kHz, the three types of DBD actuators generate plasma with a total area of 16.96, 36.74, and $53.69cm^2$, respectively, in a ring or circular form. The experimental results reveal that when the DBD actuator is placed in front of a $20mm{\times}20cm$ conducting plate, the monostatic RCS is reduced by as much as 18.5 dB in the range of 9.41-11.65 GHz. Furthermore, by generating the plasma and changing the area, the frequency of maximum reduction in the monostatic RCS of the plate can be controlled. The frequency is reduced by nearly 20% in the X band when all rings are biased. Finally, an electromagnetic model of the plasma is obtained by comparing the experimental and full-wave simulated results.

적대적 환경에서 임무를 수행하는 비행체의 레이다 포착에 관련된 스텔스 기술이 주요 설계 문제로 부각되고 있다. 레이다 회피 기능을 증대시키는 방안들을 분석하기 위해서는 Maxwell 방정식을 해석하는 기법이 필요한데, 본 연구에서는 기본 수치기법으로 다학제 최적설계 연구에 적합한 CFD 기법을 이용하였다. 시간 영역 전자기장 데이터를 DFFT 알고리즘을 이용하여 주파수 영역으로 변환한 후, 근방-원방 변환에 기초한 Green 함수 관계식을 사용하여 RCS 특성을 예측하였다. 검증을 위해 완전전도 실린더 주위 TE 모드를 고려하였으며, CFD 기법을 원용한 CEM 코드의 가능성을 확인하기 위해 비행체 날개단면 주위의 전자기 산란 현상을 계산하였다.

Objectives: This study evaluated and compared the effects of radiation therapy on the dislocation resistance of AH Plus and BioRoot RCS applied to dentin and the sealer-dentin interface. Materials and Methods: Thirty single-rooted teeth were randomly assigned to 2 groups (n = 15 each): AH Plus (Dentsply DeTrey) and BioRoot RCS (Septodont). Each group was subdivided into control and experimental groups. The experimental group was subjected to a total radiation dose of 60 Gy. The root canals of all samples were cleaned, shaped, and obturated using the single-cone technique. Dentin slices (1 mm) were sectioned from each root third for the push-out test and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was done to examine the sealer-dentin interface. The failure mode was determined using stereomicroscopy. Bond strength data were analyzed by the independent t-test, 1-way analysis of variance, and the Tukey post hoc test (α = 0.05). Results: Significantly lower bond strength was observed in irradiated teeth than non-irradiated teeth in the AH Plus group (p < 0.05). The BioRoot RCS group showed no significant reduction in bond strength after irradiation (p > 0.05) and showed a higher post-irradiation bond strength (209.92 ± 172.26 MPa) than the AH Plus group. SEM revealed slightly larger gap-containing regions in irradiated specimens from both groups. Conclusions: The dislocation resistance of BioRoot RCS was not significantly changed by irradiation and was higher than that of AH Plus. BioRoot RCS may be the sealer of choice for root canal treatment in patients undergoing radiation therapy.

함정 외부 탑재 장비의 복잡한 형상에 의해서 발생하는 다중반사는 경로를 예측하기 어렵고 높은 RCS(Radar Cross Section)의 원인이 된다. 따라서 함정의 외부 탑재 장비의 최적배치 설계가 RAS(Radar Absorbing Structure) 방법으로 고려되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 함정 외부 탑재 장비에서 발생하는 다중반사와 RCS를 최소화하기 위하여 함정 외부 탑재 장비 최적배치를 수행하였다. 외부 탑재 장비 최적배치에 사용된 알고리즘은 순차적 내림차순 방법을 이용하였다. 함정 외부 탑재 장비 최적배치를 수행하기 위하여 LCS-2 type을 해석 모델로 선정하였다. 계산 비용을 줄이기 위해서 장비의 기여도 분석 및 다중반사 경로 분석 등을 통해 최적 배치를 수행할 장비를 선정하였고 최적배치를 통해 RCS가 최소가 되는 최적배치 위치를 도출하였다. 또한 RCS 변화에 따른 레이다의 탐지거리 변화율을 이용하여 RCS 감소효과를 분석 하였다.

In order to set up radar cross section(RCS) reduction factors for a target, the scattering point position of the target should be identified through inverse synthetic aperture radar(ISAR) image analysis. For this purpose, ISAR image focusing is important. Maritime ship is non-linear maneuvering in the sea, however, which blur the ISAR image. To solve this problem, translational and rotational motion compensation are essential to form focused ISAR image. In this paper, hourglass and ISAR image analysis are performed on the collected data in the sea instead of using the prediction software tool, which takes much time and cost to make computer-aided design(CAD) model of the ship.

This paper proposes a new method that reduces RCS(rader cross section) of the aluminum plate using a oscillation system composed of a VGA(variable gain amplifier) and a phase shifter. Once the oscillation system receives the external-RF signal through a probe on aluminum plate, it makes an amplified signal with a specific phase to cancel the signal reflected from the aluminum plate. The signal transmitted from the oscillation system has the same amplitude and out of phase with the reflected signal. And it can be controlled by the VGA and the phase shifter in the oscillation system. In order to validate the performance of the proposed oscillation system, FEM simulator was used and we measured how much an amplitude of the signal reflected from the aluminum plate rotated in phi direction is reduced in an anechoic chamber.

An optimum design process of the broad-band multi-layered radar absorbing material, using genetic algorithm, is established for the radar cross section reduction of a complex target, which consists of multiple reflection structures, such as surface warships. It follows the successive process of radar cross section analysis, scattering center analysis, radar absorbing material design, and reanalysis of radar cross section after applying the radar absorbing material. It is demonstrated that it is very effective even in the optimum design of the multi-layer radar absorbing material. This results from the fact that the three factors, i.e.. the incident angle range, broad-band frequencies, and maximum thickness can be simultaneously taken into account by adopting the genetic algorithm.

An accurate analysis of nutrient balance in different cropping systems is necessary for improving soil fertilities, causing higher crop yields and quality. This study was carried out to investigate the nutrient balance, changes in soil properties, and their effects on crop yield in long-term field cultivation under mono- and rotation-cropping systems (MCS and RCS, respectively). The analytical results of the soil properties showed that the application of mineral fertilizers alone in the MCS leads the reduction of soil CEC, exchangeable Ca, and microbial biomass C and N. Compared with the MCS of soybean, the RCS of soybean and barley significantly improved the soil properties, which increased crop yield. It might be due to the barley residue added to the RCS soil. Mean nutrient balances for 4 years were -55.9 kg N, +34.7 kg $P_2O_5$, and -0.3 kg $K_2O$ $ha^{-1}$ for the MCS and +19.7 kg N, +107.4 kg $P_2O_5$, and -48.6 kg $K_2O$ $ha^{-1}$ for the RCS, respectively. These nutrient imbalances mean that conventional fertilizer recommendations were inadequate for maintaining soil nutrient balance. From these results, we can conclude that the crop rotation may change comprehensive physical, chemical, and biological soil properties. These changes could affect the nutrient balance and then the crop yield.

The purpose of this research was evaluated economical effect to apply alternative external carbon source. Conventional activated sludge process in municipal wastewater treatment plant was adapted and introduced to Biological nutrient removal processes to meet the newly enforced effluent quality standard for nutrient removal in Korea. Low $COD/NH_4^+-N$ ratio and higher nutrient concentration of influent characteristics force to inject external carbon source for denitrifying recycled nitrate. In the most case, methanol was used as external carbon source. But Methanol is expensive and very dangerous in handling. So we could find cheaper and safer external carbon source substituted methanol in last study. This alternative external carbon source is named RCS(recoverd carbon source) and a by-product of fine chemical product at chemical plant. When RCS was applied real municipal wastewater treatment plant, average $55\~65\%$ of T-N removal efficiency, 8.8mg/l of effluent T-N concentration, 11.3mg/l of effleunt COD concentration were obtained without effluent COD increase as against used methanol. To apply RCS in municipal wastewater treatment plant obtain approximately $\74.5%$ expenditure cost reduction in comparison with methanol dosage cost.
