  • Using the self-evaluation test proposed by D. Girdano, et al., the psycological, and biological causes and personality factors of the stress of the nursing students of K university in local county are measured and analyzed. As fundamental data to overcome these kinds of stress, the overall stress profiles are proposed. The results of this study are ; 1) The freshman group is very susceptible to the stress due to the behavior type and anxiety-reactive personality. 2) The sophomore group is very susceptible to the stress due to frustration, the behavior type and anxiety-reactive personality. 3) Two groups are not susceptible to the stress due to diet and noise. Since the stress is the multi-dimensional phenomena, it is necessary to reduce these stress that the life style of each Individual students be changed and the curriculm and the teaching methodology in nursing school be developed.

  • 본 논문에서는 입력 매칭(input matching) BIST(Built-In Self-Test) 회로를 이용한 RF font end의 새로운 결함 검사방법을 제안한다. BIST 회로를 가진 RF front end는 1.8GHz LNA(Low Noise Amplifier: 저 잡음 증폭기)와 이중 대칭 구조의 Gilbert 셀 믹서로 구성되어 있으며, TSMC 0.25$\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS 기술을 이용하여 설계되었다. catastrophic 결함 및 parametric 변동을 가진 RF front end와 결함을 갖지 않은 RF front end를 판별하기 위해 RF front end의 입력 전압 특성을 조사하였다. 본 방법에서는 DUT(Device Under Test: 검사대상이 되는 소자)와 BIST 회로가 동일한 칩 상에 설계되어 있기 때문에 측정할 때 단지 디지털 전자계와 고주파 전압 발생기만이 필요하며, 측정이 간단하고 비용이 저렴하다는 장점이 있다. BIST 회로가 차지하는 면적은 RF front end가 차지하는 전체면적의 약 10%에 불과하다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 검사기술을 이용하여 시뮬레이션해 본 결과 catastrophic 결함에 대해서는 100%, parametric 변동에 대해서는 약 79%의 결함을 검출할 수 있었다.

  • 수중 트랜스듀서는 진동하는 물체위에 설치되어 다양한 외부 소음원이 유입되는 환경에 노출되어 있다. 외부 소음원으로는 선체 진동. 프로펠러 소음, 그리고 유동 유기 소음들을 들 수 있고, 트랜스듀서의 실제 작동시 이들의 레벨이 상당히 높아서 센서의 정확한 작동에 장애가 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 외부 소음원에 무관한 고 정밀, 저 소음 특성을 지닌 음향센서를 개발하기 위하여 유한요소법 (FEN)을 사용하여 소음 전달 특성을 분석하고, air pocket과 음향 감쇠층의 다양한 조합으로 이루어진 구조를 개선한 음향센서의 설계 및 내소음성 평가를 하였다. 또한 사용한 음향 감쇠층의 최적 물성을 제시하고자 한다. 그 결과 센서 측면 하단부에 소음원이 위치할 경우 가장 큰 잡음 신호로 작용하며, 구조를 변경한 결과 기존 음향센서에 비해 55% 이상 내 소음성을 증진 시켰다. 그리고 음향 감쇠층의 최적 음향 임피던슨는 1 Mrayl 이하 혹은 4mrayl 이상으로 분석되었다.

  • This paper deals with the dynamic stability and the nonlinear behavior of a check valve system. The nonlinear equations of motion of fluid-valve interation model are derived, which are composed of the unsteady Bernoulli's equation included the jet flow mechanism and equation of motion of a check valve formulated by one degree of freedom. Also, the derived equations of motion are nondimensionalized. According to the change of the nondimensional parameters, the stabilities of the system are analyzed, and the nonlinear interaction responses of the check valve and the passing flow rate are obtained. As the results, the stability charts are constructed for the variation of nondimensional parameters. It is shown that self-excited vibrations exist in a check valve system. And also the Hopf bifurcation and the periodic doubling are found. The presented theoretical model of a check valve system can be utilized to the design and operation of a piping system with the check valve.

  • This study describes the result for the placement of the super flowing concrete(SFC) in under-pinning-top-slab which is located Inchon subway section 1-10 where, due to heavy reinforcements and limited working space, it was difficult to place concrete. After placing 600㎥, smooth construction and quality control were possible due to the good flow-ability, self-fillingability, and the resistance of segregation of the SFC itself. Furthermore, economical efficiency was obtained through not only the reduction of the works, labors, and site noise but also the efficient construction control. Because of the crack prevention, high strength, and a fine concrete surface, this study could be considered as a momentum to be adopted generally for applying the proposed method to the difficult subway construction area in the near future.

  • Advances in low power design open the possibility to harvest energy from the environment to power electronic circuits. Electrical energy can be harvested from piezoelectric transducer. Piezoelectric materials can be used as mechanisms to transfer mechanical energy usually vibrating system into electrical energy that can be stored and used to power other devices. Micro- to milli-watts power can be generated from vibrating system. We developed definitive and analytical models to predict the power generated from a cantilever beam attached with piezoelectric transducer. Analytical models are pin-force method, enhanced pin-force method and Euler-Bernoulli method. Harmonic oscillations and random noise will be the two different forcing functions used to drive each system. It has been selected the best model for generating electric power based upon the analytical results obtained.

  • Mechanical spring and hydraulic pressure operated mechanisms are applied in most of today's High Voltage Gas Insulated Switchgear(GIS)s. This paper proposes a new type of operation mechanism for GIS circuit breakers rated at 245kV and 40kA. The Motor-Direct-Drive-Mechanism (MDDM) has many advantages compared to conventional operating mechanisms. It has a very simple structure with only one moving part, low mechanical stress and audible noise. It also allows monitoring, operation speed control and self-diagnosis functions.

  • In this paper the nodes of the multilayer hidden layers have been modified for modeling the nonlinear systems. The structure of nodes in the hidden layers is built with the feedforward, the cross talk and the recurrent connections. The feedforward links are mapping the nonlinear function and the cross talks and the recurent links memorize the dynamics of the system. The cross talks are connected between the modes in the same hidden layers and the recurrent connection has self feedback, and these two connections receive one time delayed input signals. The simplified steam boiler and the analytic multi input multi output nonlinear system which contains process noise have been modeled using this neural networks.

  • This study proposes a new convergence weapon system that combines the covert placement and detection abilities of a self-propelled mobile mine with the rapid tracking and attack abilities of supercavitating rocket torpedoes. This innovative system has been designed to counter North Korea's new underwater weapon, 'Haeil'. The concept behind this convergence weapon system is to maximize the strengths and minimize the weaknesses of each weapon type. Self-propelled mobile mines, typically placed discreetly on the seabed or in the water, are designed to explode when a vessel or submarine passes near them. They are generally used to defend or control specific areas, like traditional sea mines, and can effectively limit enemy movement and guide them in a desired direction. The advantage that self-propelled mines have over traditional sea mines is their ability to move independently, ensuring the survivability of the platform responsible for placing the sea mines. This allows the mines to be discreetly placed even deeper into enemy lines, significantly reducing the time and cost of mine placement while ensuring the safety of the deployed platforms. However, to cause substantial damage to a target, the mine needs to detonate when the target is very close - typically within a few yards. This makes the timing of the explosion crucial. On the other hand, supercavitating rocket torpedoes are capable of traveling at groundbreaking speeds, many times faster than conventional torpedoes. This rapid movement leaves little room for the target to evade, a significant advantage. However, this comes with notable drawbacks - short range, high noise levels, and guidance issues. The high noise levels and short range is a serious disadvantage that can expose the platform that launched the torpedo. This research proposes the use of a convergence weapon system that leverages the strengths of both weapons while compensating for their weaknesses. This strategy can overcome the limitations of traditional underwater kill-chains, offering swift and precise responses. By adapting the weapon acquisition criteria from the Defense force development Service Order, the effectiveness of the proposed system was independently analyzed and proven in terms of underwater defense sustainability, survivability, and cost-efficiency. Furthermore, the utility of this system was demonstrated through simulated scenarios, revealing its potential to play a critical role in future underwater kill-chain scenarios. However, realizing this system presents significant technical challenges and requires further research.

  • In this work, we present the results of our empirical study on 802.11 wireless LAN network traffic. We collect the packet trace from existing campus wireless LAN infra-structure. We analyzed four different data sets: aggregate traffic, upstream traffic, downstream traffic, tcp only packet trace from aggregate traffic. We analyze the time series aspect of underlying traffic (byte count process and packet count process), marginal distribution of time series, and packet size distribution. We found that in all four data sets there exist long-range dependent property in byte count and packet count process. Inter-arrival distribution is well fitted with Pareto distribution. Upstream traffic, i.e. from the user to Internet, exhibits significant difference in its packet size distribution from the rests. Average packet size of upstream traffic is 151.7 byte while average packet size of the rest of the data sets are all greater than 260 bytes. Packets with full data payloads constitutes 3% and 10% in upstream traffic and the downstream traffic, respectively. Despite the significant difference in packet size distribution, all four data sets have similar Hurst values. The Hurst alone does not properly explain the stochastic characteristics of the underlying traffic. We model the underlying traffic using fractional-ARIMA (FARIMA) and fractional Gaussian Noise (FGN). While the fractional Gaussian Noise based method is computationally more efficient, FARIMA exhibits superior performance in accurately modeling the underlying traffic.
