In PWM inverter fed traction motor drive systems, the switching frequency is restricted and thus the electromagnetic acoustic noise is generated. To reduce such an audible noise, we propose the modified RSF(Randomized Switching Frequency)-PWM method. In the proposed RSF-PWM method, both triangular wave and sawtooth wave are used in one period as carrier waves. Because the proposed method has inherently the same property as sinusoidal PWM method, there is no problem of linearity. To verify the validity of the modified RSF-PWM method, computer simulations are carried out.

In order to compare the development performance of headed reinforcing bar and straight reinforcing bar in tension for steel fiber reinforced concrete (SFRC), pullout test of specimens with reinforcing bar which was anchored on simple beam perpendicularly was conducted. The experimental variables were steel fiber volume ratio ($V_{Rsf}$), concrete compressive strength, and existence of head. As the result of test, splitting failure of concrete in the development direction of reinforcing bar in most specimens was observed. For development detail of headed reinforcing deformation bar, specimens with 1% $V_{Rsf}$ showed approximately 63%~119% increase in pullout strength compare to specimens with 0% $V_{Rsf}$. Test result shows that SFRC is more effective in increasing pullout strength for headed reinforcing bars than increasing pullout strength of straight bars.

Randomizing the switching frequency (RSF) to reduce the electromagnetic interference (EMI) of switching power converters is a well-known technique that has been previously discussed. The randomized pulse position (RPP) technique, in which the switching frequency is kept fixed while the pulse position (the delay from the starting of the switching cycle to the turn-on instant within the cycle) is randomized, has been previously addressed in the literature for the same purpose. This paper presents a double-hybrid technique (DHB) for EMI reduction in dc-dc switching regulators. The proposed technique employed both the RSF and the RPP techniques. To effectively spread the conducted-noise frequency spectrum and at the same time attain a satisfactory output voltage quality, two parameters (switching frequency and pulse position) were randomized, and a third parameter (the duty ratio) was controlled by a digital compensator. Implementation was achieved using field programmable gate array (FPGA) technology, which is increasingly being adopted in industrial electronic applications. To evaluate the contribution of the proposed DHB technique, investigations were carried out for each basic PWM, RPP, RSF, and DHB technique. Then a comparison was made of the performances achieved. The experimentally investigated features include the effect of each technique on the common-mode, differential-mode, and total conducted-noise characteristics, and their influence on the converter’s output ripple voltage.

응답면 기법은 수치적 효율성을 증대시키기 위해 구조 신뢰성 해석에 널리 적용되고 있다. 그러나 응답면 기법을 사용한 대형구조물의 신뢰성 해석에는 아직도 과도한 해석시간이 요구되고 비선형성이 큰 한계상태에 대해서는 확률변수에 대한 신뢰도지수의 민감도 측면에서 많은 오차가 발생한다. 그러므로, 이 연구에서는 이동최소제곱근사법을 적용한 새로운 응답면 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 응답면 기법에 사용되어온 최소제곱근사법은 표본점들에 동일한 가중값을 부여하여 응답면 함수의 계수를 결정한다. 반면에 이동최소제곱근사법은 설계점에 가까운 표본점들에 더 높은 가중값을 부여함으로써 설계점 근처에서 한계상태식에 더 가까운 응답면 함수를 제공하여 정확도를 증대시킨다. 이동최소제곱근사법을 이용한 신뢰성 해석 절차를 살펴보면, 먼저 선형 응답면 함수를 생성하여 설계점이 있을 영역을 결정한 다음, 이 영역에서 추출된 표본점들을 이용하여 2차 응답면 함수를 생성한다. 그 다음 단계에서는 기존에 추출된 표본점에 연속적으로 하나의 표본점을 더해가면서 응답면 함수를 더욱더 정확히 근사시킨다. 제안된 방법의 효율성을 검토하기 위해서 기존 연구자에 의해 제안된 수치적 문제 및 트러스 문제들에 대하여 신뢰성 해석을 수행하였다. 그 결과 제안된 방법은 민감도를 포함한 정확성 뿐만 아니라 계산 효율성도 증대시킴을 확인할 수 있었다.

Objective: For localization of the motor cortex, seed-based resting-state functional MRI (rsfMRI) uses the contralateral motor cortex as a seed. However, research has shown that the location of the motor cortex could differ according to anatomical variations. The purpose of this study was to compare the results of rsfMRI using two seeds: a template seed (the anatomically expected location of the contralateral motor cortex) and a functional seed (the actual location of the contralateral motor cortex determined by task-based functional MRI [tbfMRI]). Materials and Methods: Eight patients (4 with glioma, 3 with meningioma, and 1 with arteriovenous malformation) and 9 healthy volunteers participated. For the patients, tbfMRI was performed unilaterally to activate the healthy contralateral motor cortex. The affected ipsilateral motor cortices were mapped with rsfMRI using seed-based and independent component analysis (ICA). In the healthy volunteer group, both motor cortices were mapped with both-hands tbfMRI and rsfMRI. We compared the results between template and functional seeds, and between the seed-based analysis and ICA with visual and quantitative analysis. Results: For the visual analysis, the functional seed showed significantly higher scores compared to the template seed in both the patients (p = 0.002) and healthy volunteers (p < 0.001). Although no significant difference was observed between the functional seed and ICA, the ICA results showed significantly higher scores than the template seed in both the patients (p = 0.01) and healthy volunteers (p = 0.005). In the quantitative analysis, the functional seed exhibited greater similarity to tbfMRI than the template seed and ICA. Conclusion: Using the contralateral motor cortex determined by tbfMRI as a seed could enhance visual delineation of the motor cortex in seed-based rsfMRI.

본 연구는 현재 사용되고 있는 석유화학계 접착제를 대체하기 위하여 바이오 디젤 부산물인 유채박을 세 종류(cellulase, pectinase, protease)의 효소를 단독 또는 조합하여 개량한 후 phenol formaldehyde (PF) prepolymer와 혼합하여 접착제를 제조하였으며, 이렇게 조제된 접착제를 적용시킨 합판의 접착능 및 포름알데히드 방산량을 조사함으로써 유채박의 합판용 접착제를 위한 원료화 가능성을 확인하고자 하였다. 유채박 접착제는 효소의 종류와 PF prepolymer의 몰비에 따라 6.26~8.81의 pH와 2,980~4,610 cps 점도를 보였으며, 고형분 함량은 33% 내외인 것으로 조사되었다. 유채박 접착제로 제조된 합판의 접착능 및 포름알데히드 방산량을 조사한 결과, cellulase 또는 cellulase와 pectinase를 이용하여 순차적으로 가수분해한 유채박 가수분해물과 1.8-F/P PF prepolymer로 조제한 접착제를 적용시킨 합판의 건조 및 준내수 인장강도가 가장 높았으며, 그 값은 KS F 3101의 보통합판에 관한 최소 규정치인 0.6 N/$mm^2$를 초과하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 유채박 접착제로 제조된 합판의 포름알데히드 방산량은 전반적으로 1.0 mg/${\ell}$를 초과하지 않았으며, 대조구인 요소수지 접착제로 제조된 합판의 포름알데히드 방산량(2.69 mg/${\ell}$)과 비교하여 상당히 낮았다. 본 연구 결과로부터 유채박 접착제가 합판용 접착제로써 사용될 수 있다는 가능성을 제시할 수 있었으며, 유채박의 가수분해에 사용된 효소의 양 및 가수분해 시간을 조절하거나, 고형분 함량을 증가시켜 열압온도와 시간을 줄이는 방안 등이 유채박 접착제의 상용화를 위하여 향후 추가 연구가 되어야 할 것으로 생각한다.

Coarse-grained reconfigurable architecture (CGRA)-based multi-core architecture aims at achieving high performance by kernel level parallelism (KLP). However, the existing CGRA-based multi-core architectures suffer from much energy and performance bottleneck when trying to exploit the KLP because of poor resource utilization caused by insufficient flexibility. In this work, we propose a new ring-based sharing fabric (RSF) to boost their flexibility level for the efficient resource utilization focusing on the kernel-stream type of the KLP. In addition, based on the RSF, we introduce a novel inter-CGRA reconfiguration technique for the efficient pipelining of kernel-stream on CGRA-based multi-core architectures. Experimental results show that the proposed approaches improve performance by up to 50.62 times and reduce energy by up to 50.16% when compared with the conventional CGRA-based multi-core architectures.

In this paper, RSF+RPP(Random Switching Frequency Ran-domized Pulse Position) PWM for three-phase voltage-controlled inverter is proposed. The LLPWM(Lead-Lag PWM) technique is that three switching pulses are located randomly back and forth in each switching interval But with the restriction of random distribution, the harmonic spectrum cannot be dispersedly and continuously distributed. To tackle this problem , First, the switching frequency is varied randomly. Next, the duty ratio is calculated under the first circumstance. Finally, the switching pulses are located randomly in the switching interval. To verify the validity of the proposed technique, Simulation Study is tried Using Matlab/Si...

Recent surveys have shown that many early-type galaxies have signatures of ongoing or recent star formation (RSF). These RSF galaxies show blue integrated UV-optical colours that set them aside in the NUV integrated colour-magnitude relation. Among them, NGC 4150 has been observed using the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) on board the Hubble Space Telescope to inspect the galaxy with higher spatial resolution. In the WFC3 data, the galaxy reveals ubiquitous near-UV emission and remarkable dusty substructure. Our analysis shows this galaxy to lie in the near-UV green valley, and its pixel-by-pixel photometry exhibits a narrow range of UV-optical colours that are similar to those of nearby E+A (post-starburst) galaxies, and lie between those of M83 (an actively star-forming spiral) and the local quiescent early-type galaxy population. This work reaffirms our hypothesis that minor mergers play a significant role in the evolution of early-type galaxies at late epochs.

CGRA (Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Architecture) based multi-core architecture can be considered as a suitable solution for the fault-tolerant computing. However, there have been a few research projects based on fault-tolerant CGRA without exploiting the strengths of CGRA as well as their works are limited to single CGRA. Therefore, in this paper, we propose two approaches to enable exploiting the inherent redundancy and reconfigurability of the multi-CGRA for fault-recovery. One is a resilient inter-CGRA fabric that is ring-based sharing fabric (RSF) with minimal interconnection overhead. Another is a novel intra/inter-CGRA reconfiguration technique on RSF for maximizing utilization of the resources when faults occur. Experimental results show that the proposed approaches achieve up to 94% faulty recoverability with reducing area/delay/power by up to 15%/28.6%/31% when compared with completely connected fabric (CCF).
