The characteristics of linear dichroism with temperature were investigated in normally($0^{\circ}$) and $80^{\circ}$-obliquely deposited amorphous $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ thin films using low temperature equipment. The saturated dichroism($D_{sat}$) of a $80^{\circ}$-obliquely deposited film shows approximately 6% which is the larger value than 4.2 % of normally($0^{\circ}$) deposited film. The $D_{sat}$ of $80^{\circ}$-deposited film was increased to 25 % at 77 K, which is four times larger than that at room temperature. The $D_{sat}$ decreased with increasing temperature and was completely disappeared at about 335K. This could be explained as the tunneling effect due to the thermal excitation of lone-pair electrons in intimate valence alternation pairs(IVAPs) which are considered to be the origin of anisotropy. The decrease of $D_{sat}$ with increasing temperature from 77K to room temperature satisfied Gaussian approximation with a standard deviation of 158K.

Icon conveys symbolic information which they have become ubiquitous as main element of GUI. However, users often cannot intuitively understand its functional meanings. Icon has to be designed for users to easily understand functional meanings. In order to evaluate icon, the spreading activation model can be used to effectively understand the process of information retrieval. In asymmetric spreading activation model is that in the two nodes the degree of spreading activation is different according to direction. Thus, asymmetric spreading activation theory was performed evaluating the strength of association when users see visual image to associate their verbal meaning (visual image - verbal meaning pair) and users see verbal meaning to associate their visual image (verbal meaning - visual image pair). According to the direction, this study hypothesizes that the well-designed icons have symmetric relationship rather than asymmetric relationship between the two pairs. The strength of association is measured through the reaction time and the accuracy rate. In performing SAT (spreading activation test), the ten icons were selected as word processing software icons. After first SAT, newly designed icons were developed based on Korean mental model, and second SAT was conducted using them. The results showed that the accuracy rate of newly designed icon has been improved. Also there is significant difference of reaction time between current icons and newly designed icons. Well-designed icon is confirmed that the strength of association relationship arises symmetrically rather than asymmetrically between the two pairs. User centered icons could be designed by improving the strength of association between the two pairs. Asymmetric SAT evaluates the strength of the association between the visual image and the verbal meanings to contribute to the development of icon which it related to human's association structure.

Kyung Hee University has been developing a CubeSat for the space science mission called SIGMA (Scientific cubesat with Instrument for Global Magnetic field and rAdiation), which includes TEPC (Tissue Equivalent Proportional Counter) and a magnetometer. SIGMA has a 3-unit CubeSat, and the weight is about 3.2 kg. The main payload is TEPC which can measure the Linear Energy Transfer (LET) spectrum and calculate the equivalent dose for the complicated radiation field in the space. The magnetometer is a secondary payload using a miniaturized fluxgate magnetometer. We expect it to have a 1 nT resolution in the dynamic range of ${\pm}65535$ nT. An Attitude Control System (ACS) spins the SIGMA spacecraft 4 rpm with the spin axis perpendicular to the ecliptic plane. Full duplex communication is consists of VHF uplink and S-band and UHF downlink. In this paper, we introduce the system design and the scientific purpose of the SIGMA CubeSat mission.

Satrec Initiative successfully developed a high-resolution electro-optical camera system, EOS-D Ver.1.0. EOS-D Ver.1.0 is the main payload of DubaiSat-2 and Deimos-2, which are developed based on the SI-300 platform of Satrec Initiative. After the launch and early operation (LEOP) of DubaiSat-2 and Deimos-2, we performed refocusing for the telescope of EOS-D Ver.1.0 to compensate for the dimensional change of its metering structure by moisture out-gassing. Before and after refocusing, we conducted the performance evaluation of thermal control system(TCS) for EOS-D Ver.1.0 using the in-orbit telemetry data. The evaluation showed EOS-D Ver.1.0 was under well-controlled thermal environment, which demonstrates TCS was designed and developed to meet all requirements.

This paper explores an implementation of finite element analysis and experiment in the design process of a tape spring hinge used for various CubeSat missions. Tape spring hinges consist of short-length hardened-steel strips with one-sided curvature, and thus the behavior is subject to large deformation with unpredicted non-linearity. Precise dimensions of a commercial tape spring are traced by the use of high-resolution digital camera, and thin-shell FEM analysis is conducted using ABAQUS program. Based on the rotation-moment analysis suggested in previous studies, parametric analysis is conducted by adjusting the contributing factors such as strip thickness and the subtended angle of the cross section. Finally the behaviors are investigated by both analytical and non-linear finite element methods, and the results are compared with the simple measurements. Further studies suggest a possible application in dynamic characteristics of hinges during CubeSat operations.

TerraSAR-X, launched in June 2007, and TanDEM-X, June 2010, are remote-sensing satellites with 1M resolution that are capable of observing the ground even during the nighttime and poor weather conditions. The two satellites had been developed under a public-private partnership between the German Aerospace Centre and Airbus in the interest of the commercial marketing for German satellite data. However, the data of high-grade earth remote-sensing system, such as those of the satellites, has been produced by a military satellite and thus used under limited circumstances in Germany. Therefore, a legislation to commercialize the German satellite data and to protect its national security is needed. For this, SatDSiG was enacted in December 2007. Thus this article will contain the main contents of SatDSiG and its implication for Korea, which stared to export data of Kompsat 3, 3A and 5 in 2018.

In the design and development process of Small-Sat power distribution and transmission module, the stability of dynamic resources was evaluated by a deep learning algorithm. The requirements for the stability evaluation consisted of the power distribution function of the power distribution module and demand module to the SAR radar in Small-Sat. To verify the performance of the switching power components constituting the power module PDM, the reliability was verified using a dynamic neural network. The adoption material of deep learning for reliability verification is the power distribution function of the payload to the power supplied from the small satellite main body. Modeling targets for verifying the performance of this function are output voltage (slew rate control), voltage error, and load power characteristics. First, to this end, the Coefficient Structure area was defined by modeling, and PCB modules were fabricated to compare stability and reliability. Second, Levenberg-Marquare based Two-Way NARX neural network Sigmoid Transfer was used as a deep learning algorithm.

The major educational goal of reading part, which occupies important portion in Korean language in Korean SAT, is to evaluated whether a given text can be fully understood. Therefore given questions in the exam must be able to solely solvable by given text. In this paper we developed a datatset based on Korean SAT's reading part in order to evaluate whether a deep learning language model can classify if the given question is true or false, which is a binary classification task in NLP. In result, by applying language model solely according to the passages in the dataset, we were able to acquire better performance than 59.2% in F1 score for human performance in most of language models, that KoELECTRA scored 62.49% in our experiment. Also we proved that structural limit of language models can be eased by adjusting data preprocess.

A nylon wire holding and release mechanism (HRM) has been widely used for deployable applications of CubeSat owing to its simplicity and low cost. In general, structural safety of solar panel with an HRM has been designed by performing structural analysis under a launch environment. However, previous studies have not performed thermal analysis for HRM in an on-orbit environment. In this study, Launch and Early Orbit Phase (LEOP) thermal analysis was performed to evaluate thermal stability of the mechanism in the orbital thermal environment of the pogo pin-based HRM applied to CubeSat. In addition, the effectiveness of the thermal design and performance of the pogo pin-based HRM were verified through a thermal vacuum test.
