Numerical modeling of a nondestructive testing system plays an important role in many aspects of quantitative nondestructive evaluation (QNDE). The ultimate goal of a model is to predict test results for a specific flaw in a material. Thus, in ultrasonic testing, a system model should include the transducer, its radiation pattern, the beam reflection and propagation, and scattering from defects. In this paper attention is focused on the scattering model and the scattered fields by defects are observed by an elastodynamic boundary element method. Flaw types addressed are void-like and crack-like flaws. When transverse ultrasonic waves are obliquely incident on the flaw, the angular distribution of far-field scattered displacements are calculated and presented in the form of A-scan mode. The component signals obtained from each scattering problem are identified and their differences are addressed. The numerical results are also compared with those obtained by high frequency approximate solutions.

LAS (Laparoscopy Assisted Surgery) has been substituted alternatively for traditional open surgery. However, when using a commercialized robot assisted laparoscopic such as Da Vinci, surgeons have encountered some problems due to having to depend only on information by visual feedback. To solve this problem, a haptic function is required. In order to realize the haptic teleoperation system, a force feedback and bilateral control system are needed. Previous research showed that the perturbation value estimated by a SPO (Sliding Perturbation Observer) followed a reaction force that loaded on the surgical robot instrument. Thus, in this paper, the force feedback problem of surgical robots is solved through the reaction force estimation method. This paper then introduces the possibility of the haptic function realization of a laparoscopic surgery robot using a bilateral control system. For bilateral control, the master uses an impedance control and the slave uses a SMC (Sliding Mode Control). The experiment results show that a torque and force sensorless teleoperation system can be implemented using a bilateral control structure.

A numerical method for scattering of electromagnetic waves from a periodic strip grating over a grounded dielectric slab is considered for TE and TM polarization cases from the viewpoints of both reflection grating problem and leaky wave antenna problem. The analysis is based on a mode expansion method, floquet's theorem, and the method of moments. Numerical results involving some combinations of geometric parameters are presented in terms of complex propagation constant (kd-$\beta$d diagram), radiation pattern, and relative scattered powers of spectral modes. In particular, the relationship between complex propagatio constnat form the viewpoint of leaky wqve antenna problem and Off-bragg and bragg blazing phenomena from the viewpoint of reflecton graing problem is investigated.

In this paper, we present a polarizer that consists of three step rotary detents which can selectively convert linear polarzation into circular polarization and vice versa. For the design of the polarizer, the transmission line theory is applied to design the wa- veguide mode transducer for the modes to be smothly converted in waveguides, and a dielectric plate is inserted in circular waveguide for the conversion of a polarized wave with the angle of an inserted dielectric plate. Also, we simulated to obtain the optimum values of the transmission and the reflection coefficient characteristics at input and output port, and proved the propriety of the theory from the knowledge of measuring the constructed polarizer with the designed data.

The characteristics of optical waeguides and IDT electrodes fabricated for acousto-optic tunable filters (AOTE) used for optical communications were analyzed. A $Ti:LiNbO_3$ in-diffusion method was employed for the formation of the optical waveguide with a dimension of width $8\mu\textrm{m}$, length $30000\mu\textrm{m}$, and thickness $1150{\AA}$. The diffusion was carried at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 8 houss to pattern the optical waveguide with Ti. The resulted waveguide exhibited a single mode at a 1550nm wavelength range and its propagation loss was less than 0.5dB/cm. The width of IDT, with 10 SAW periods, was $5000\mu\textrm{m}$, S11 reflection characteristics and impedances of th eelectrodes deposited with Au were analyzed using a network analyzer; $48.1\Omega$ at th ecenter frquency of 193MHz for Au deposition thickness of $1500{\AA}$ and $50.7\Omega$ at the center frequency of 192MHz for au deposition thickness of $1600{\AA}$.

Three components contribute to the acoustic field propagating in a wedge or over a ridge : a direct path arrival, an image component due to reflection from the boundaries and a component diffracted by the apex. All three contributions are included in a new, exact solution of the Helmholtz equation for the three-dimensional time harmonic field from a point source in a wedge(or over a ridge) formed by two intersecting, pressure-release plane boundaries. The solution is obtained by applying three integral transforms, and consists of and infinite sum of uncoupled normal nodes. The mode coefficients are given by a finite integral involving a Gegenbauer polynomial in the integrand, which may be computed relatively efficiently. Results of the theory for propagation over a 90 degree ridge is discussed.

In this paper, a rotation invariant fingerprint identification system is implemented using the circular harmonic filter and phase only correlator. We extracted the phase component from input fingerprint image and correlate it with the circular harmonic filter of the reference fingerprint image by POC. The input image is obtained using a prism operating in the internal full reflection mode. Then the input image is transformed to two dimensional Fourier spectrum in optical way and the phase component is extracted using a digital system from the spectrum. Because composed of the optical system and digital algorithm, the proposed system has the advantages of the two technologies such as realtime parallel processing property of the optics and the flexibility of the digital system.

본 연구에서는 이온선보조증착법에 의해 Si(100)기판위에 정합성장된 $Si_{0.5}$Ge_{0.5}$층의 핵성성과 성장을 고찰하였다. 성장층에 대한 AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy), RHEED(Reflection High Energy Electron diffraction) 등의 분석결과 Si(100)기판위에 이온선보조증착에 의하여 성장된 $Si_{0.5}$Ge_{0.5}$층은 Stranski-Kranstanov(SK)기구로 성장되며, 300eV, 10 $\mu$A/$cm^{2}$의 Ar이온선을 조사시키는 경우 결정성이 향상되었고, SK 성장 방식의 임계두께가 증가하였다. Ar 이온선 조사에 의해 MBE에 의한 정합성장온도(55$0^{\circ}C$-$600^{\circ}C$)보다 훨씬 낮은 20$0^{\circ}C$에서 정합성장이 가능하였으며, $x_{mn}$값은 10.5%로 MBE에 의한 정합성장시 보고된 $x_{mn}$ 값보다 낮았다. 이온충돌에 의해 발생한 3차원 island의 분해와 표면확산의 증가가 $Si_{0.5}$Ge_{0.5}$층의 성장에 현저한 영향을 미쳤으며, 이온충돌의 영향은 3차원 island의 생성보다 3차원 island의 분해가 더 안정한 낮은 증착온도에서만 관찰되었다.

This paper presents a simple, practical, and efficient method for estimating the speed of sound in reflection mode in ultrasound medical imaging. Its accurate determination is indispensable in order to obtain both good resolution and correct geometrical and volumetric information about human organs such as heart and kidney. Up to now, there have been several methods available, but they all suffer from either poor performance or high complexity. The proposed method finds out an optimum focusing delay profile in such a way that the brightness in a region of interest is maximized using continuous dynamic focusing in receive under fixed transmit focusing. Experiments carried out on a real ultrasound medical phantom reveals that the method a quite simple and effective in providing good speed of sound estimation, hence improved resolution and images, adding to dignostic utility.
