Proteins are one of essential part of organisms; many proteins are enzymes that catalyze biochemical reactions and are vital to metabolism. Researching for 3D structure of proteins is important because functions of proteins are determined by 3D structure of them. In this study, we developed graphic tool that supports comparison and observation of the two proteins' 3D structure in the single screen. It also supports some comparison data to help researcher's easy comparison and observation works.

유비쿼터스 지능 공간(Ubiquitous Smart Space)에서 동적으로 발생하는 다양한 문제를 협업을 통하여 해결할 수 있는 방법론으로 제안된 커뮤니티 컴퓨팅 (Community Computing) 모델을 기반으로 하는 개발 도구(Community Computing Development Tool Kit : CDTK)를 사용하면 특정 문제를 해결할 수 있는 커뮤니티 컴퓨팅 어플리케이션이 생성된다. 이 커뮤니티 컴퓨팅 어플리케이션이 실제로 유비쿼터스 지능 공간에 존재하는 uT-entity에 이식되어 동작하기 위해서 uT-entity의 종류에 상관없이 커뮤니티 컴퓨팅 어플리케이션이 배포될 수 있는 환경을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 CDTK를 이용하여 생성된 커뮤니티 컴퓨팅 어플리케이션이 uT-entity에 배포(Deployment)되어 각 uT-entity가 커뮤니티의 멤버로 참여하여 멤버간의 협업을 통해 목적(Goal)을 달성할 수 있도록 지원하는 어플리케이션 프레임워크인 멤버 프레임워크(Member Framework)를 제안하고, 이를 이클립스 리치클라이언트 플랫폼(Rich Client Platform) 기반의 플러그인(Plug-In)으로 설계하고자 한다.

We has designed, fabricated, and measured a Single flux quantum (SFQ) toggle flip-flop (TFF). The TFF is widely used in superconductive digital electronics circuits. Many digital devices, such as frequency counter, counting ADC and program counter be used TFF Specially, a program counter may be constructed based on TFF We have designed the newly TFF and obtained high bias margins on test. In this work, we used two circuit simulation tools, WRspice and Julia, as circuit optimization tools. We used XIC for a layout tool. Newly designed TFF had minimum bias margins of +/- $37\%$ and maximum bias margins of +/-$37\%$(enhanced from +/- $37\%$). The designed circuits were fabricated by using Nb technology The test results showed that the re-optimized TFF operated correctly on 100kHz and had a very wide bias margins of +/- $53\%$.

In this paper, the system for monitoring process of aluminum laser welding was developed using the light signal emitted from the plasma which comes from interaction between material and laser. Photodiode for monitoring system was selected based on the spectrum analysis of light from plasma and keyhole. Behavior of plasma and keyhole was analyzed through the sensor signals. Value of sensor signal represented the light intensity and fluctuation of signal indicated the stability of plasma and keyhole. For the relation between welding condition and sensor signals, the input power and weld geometry greatly effected on the average of each sensor signals. Using the feature values of signals, estimation model for tensile strength of weld was formulated with neural network algorithm. Performance of this model was verified through coefficient of determination and average error rate.

We propose a new technique for autonomous navigation and travelling of mobile robot based on ultrasonic sensors through the narrow labyrinth that leave only distance of a few centimeters on each side between the guides and the robot. In our current implementation the ultrasonic sensor system fires at a rate of 100 ms, that is, each of the 8 sensors fires once during each 100 ms interval. This is a very good firing rate, implemented here for optimal performance. This paper presents an extensively tested and verified solution to the problem of obstacle avoidance. Our solution is based on the optimal placement of ultrasonic sensors at strategic locations around the robot. Both the sensor location and the associated navigation algorithm are defined in such a way that only the accurate radial sonar data is used for accurate travelling.

Renal cell carcinoma is the most common histological type of renal malignancy, predominant in men and the primary treatment modality of this tumor is surgery. The role of diagnostic imaging in the management of this tumor is the evaluation of extent of disease as well as the detection and characterization of renal mass. US has long been a routine screening tool for kidney but tomographic imaging modalities such as CT and MRI begin to be also commonly used these days. On the other hand, the sensitivity of $^{18}F-FDG-PET$ in detection of renal mass is relatively low because of inherent limitation caused by FDG excretion pathway despite avid uptake of FDG to tumor cell per se. Many studies revealed FDG PET scan could play an important role in detection of metastatic lesions although the sensitivity for the detection of primary lesion is not so high. Furthermore, development of PET/CT scanner will make it possible to expand the indication of FDG PET scan in this malignancy.

A two-dimensional static biochemical model of lower extremity in the seated posture was developed to assess muscular activities of lower extremity required for a variety of foot pedal operations. We found that the double linear optimization method that has been used for modelling articulated body segments does no predict the forces generated by biarticular muscles reasonably, so the revised double linear optimization scheme was used to consider the synergistic effects of biarticular muscles in our model, assuming that the muscle forces are distributed proportionally based on their physiological cross sectional area. The model incorporated three rigid body se- gments with six muscles to represnet lower extremity. For the model validation, three male subjects performed the experiments in which EMG activities of six lower extremity muscles were measured. Predicted muscle forces were compare with the corresponding EMG amplitudes and it showed no statistical difference. The model being developed can be used to design and assess pedal and foot-related tool design.

The EDM characteristics of STD11 steel with copper and graphite as electrode have been investigated by using Hansvedt SE-155B electro-discharge machine. The effects of parameters such as duty factor and frequency on electro-discharge machining were discussed. It was found that those parameters have significant influences on the relative electrode wear(REW), metal removalrate(MRR) surface integrity. When the duty factor was increased under the constant frequency of 2 KHz, the MRR was also increased and the REW was decreased. But REW was constant with higher duty factor of 50%. In the case of the smaller duty factor and the higher frequency, the surface roughness has become better. When the graphite was used as electrode at thes same condition, the tool electrode built-up phenomenon has been obsdrved.

Design optimization is performed to calculated the draw-bead force for satisfying the design re-quirements. For an analysis tool a rigid-plastic finite element method with modified membrane element is adopted. response surface methodology is utilized for constructing the approximation surface for the optimum searching of draw bead force in sheet metal forming process. the algorithm developed is ap-plied to a design of the draw bead forces in a deep drawing process. The results show that the design of process parameters is applicable in complex metal forming analysis. It is also noted that the present algo-rithm enhances the stable optimum solution with small times of optimization iteration.

Air gun has been one of the good tools to press two sheet metals. However, it is not easy to control the acting force precisely. A Servo-gun is a good tool to control the acting force on the workpiece comparing with the air gun. Servo-gun has a higher tensile shear strength and lower indentation depth as well as smaller spatter. Dynamic resistance was obtained according to the acting force and welding current. As the acting force was changed during welding, the welding quality was increased.
