This paper presents an architecture for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) with blind source separation (BSS) applied to retrieve the received mixing signals of the sink nodes first. The little-to-no need of prior knowledge about the source signals of the sink nodes in the BSS method is obviously advantageous for WSNs. The optimization problem of the BSS of multiple independent source signals with complex and noncircular distributions from observed sensor nodes is considered and addressed. This paper applies Castella's reference-based scheme to Novey's negentropy-based algorithms, and then proposes a novel fast fixed-point (FastICA) algorithm, defined as the reference-signal negentropy complex FastICA (RSNT-cFastICA) for complex-valued noncircular-distribution source signals. The proposed method for the sink nodes is substantially more efficient than Novey's quasi-Newton algorithm in terms of computational speed under large numbers of samples, can effectively improve the power consumption effeciency of the sink nodes, and is significantly beneficial for WSNs and wireless communication networks (WCNs). The effectiveness and performance of the proposed method are validated and compared with three related BSS algorithms through theoretical analysis and simulations.

정지궤도급 차세대 통신위성에 탑재될 디지털신호처리기에는 디지털 고속통신을 위한 FPGA가 사용된다. 적용된 FPGA는 높은 열소산량을 가지고 있으며, 이로 인한 접합온도의 상승은 부하경감 요구조건을 만족하기 어렵고 장비의 수명과 신뢰도 저하의 주요 원인이다. 지상과는 달리 우주환경에서의 전장품의 열제어는 대부분 열전도를 통하여 이루어지고 있다. CCGA 또는 BGA 형태의 FPGA는 인쇄회로기판에 장착되지만, 인쇄회로기판의 열전도율은 FPGA의 열제어에 효율적이지 못하다. FPGA의 열제어를 위하여 부품 리드와 하우징을 직접 연결하는 히트싱크를 제작하였으며, 우주인증레벨의 열진공시험을 통하여 그 성능을 확인하였다. 높은 전력소모량을 가진 FPGA는 우주환경에 적용하기 어려웠으나, 히트싱크를 적용함으로써 부하경감 온도 마진을 확보하였다.

최근에 LED나 OLED와 같은 조명용 소자의 온도 상승에 따른 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 전기 도금 방법을 사용하여 제작한 두께가 두꺼운 금속 필름을 heat sink로 사용하고 있다. Cu 필름과 같은 두꺼운 금속 필름은 습식 방법인 전기 도금으로 제작하여 주로 소자의 방열판으로 사용되어 왔으나 건식의 증착 방법을 이용한 수 백 ${\mu}m$의 Cu 금속 필름에 대한 필요성이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서 설계 제작된 유도 가열 방식의 Cu 필름 증착 장비는 가열부가 세라믹 도가니 히터 부분과 세라믹 도가니 부분으로 분리된 이중 구조의 heating 방식을 채택하여 열 손실을 최소화 하고 보온 효과를 극대화시켰다. 또한 유도 가열 방식으로 초고속의 필름 증착 속도를 구현하였다. 그리고 열전도도가 높고 안정적인 두꺼운 Cu 필름 증착기술을 확보하고 최적화 하여 $1000{\AA}/s$의 증착율로 $100{\mu}m$의 필름을 증착 하였으며 ~2.0% 이내의 두께 균일도를 얻었다.

Non-linear energy sink (NES) is an emerging passive absorber able to mitigate the dynamic response of structures without any external energy supply, resonating with all the modes of the primary structure to control. However, its inherent non-linearities hinder its large-scale use and leads to complicated design procedures. For this purpose, an approximate design approach is herein proposed in a stochastic framework. Since loads are random in nature, the stochastic analysis of non-linear systems may be performed by means of computational intensive techniques such as Monte Carlo simulations (MCS). Alternatively, the Stochastic Linearisation (SL) technique has proven to be an effective tool to investigate the performance of different passive control systems under random loads. Since controlled systems are generally non-classically damped and most of SL algorithms operate recursively, the computational burden required is still large for those problems that make intensive use of SL technique, as optimal design procedures. Herein, a procedure to speed up the Stochastic Linearisation technique is proposed by avoiding or strongly reducing numerical evaluations of response statistics. The ability of the proposed procedure to effectively reduce the computational effort and to reliably design the NES is showed through an application on a well-known case study related to the vibrations mitigation of an aircraft wing.

현재의 반도체 공정은 Deep Sub- Micmn (DSM)으로 발전하면서, 선폭이 줄어들고 구동 주파수가 높아지고 있다. 이로 인해 clock source로부터 clock을 필요로 하는 각 단자(sink)까지의 '지연시간의 최대 차'로 정의되어지는 clock skew가 회로의 속도 향상에 있어 중요 제약요소가 되고 있다. 또한 이를 얼마나 줄이느냐 하는 것은 동기식 회로 설계에 있어 중요한 문제가 되고 있다. 따라서 낮은 clock skew를 위한 배선 기술에 대해 많은 연구들이 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 clock skew를 줄이기 위한 방법으로서 새로운 Advanced clock Tree Generation(ACTG) 방법을 개발하였다. ACTG는 2단계의 계층적 routing을 통해 최적의 clock tree를 구성한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 알고리즘을 C 언어로 프로그램하여 구현하 후 벤치마크 테스트 데이터에 대하여 실험한 결과, 주어진 skew 범위를 만족시키면서 지연 시간을 감소시키는 효과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Recently, the electronic parts are to be thinner plate, smaller size, light weight material and CPU, HDD and DRAM in all the parts have been produced on the basis of the high speed and greater capacity. Also, conventional goods have replaced a LED (Light-Emitting Diode) in lighting products so; such industry devices need to have cooling. To maximize all the performance on the heat-radiated products, the area of heat-radiated parts is required to be cooled for keeping the life time extension and performance of product up. Existing cooling systems are using radiant heat plate of aluminum, brass by extrusion molding, heat pipe or hydro-cooling system for cooling. There is a limitation for bringing the light weight of product, cost reduction, molding of the cooling system. So it is proposed that an alternative way was made for bringing to the cooling system. EP (Engineering Plastic) of low-cost ABS (Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene Resin) and PC (Polycarbonate) was coated with brass and the coating made the radiated heat go up. The performance of radiant heat plate is the similar to the existing part. We have studied experimentally on the radiated heat plate for the light-weight, molding improvement and low-cost. From now on, we are going to develop the way to replace the exiting plate with exterior surface of product as a cooling system.

In this paper, we study a problem of passive suppression of helicopter Ground Resonance (GR) using a single degree freedom Nonlinear Energy Sink (NES), GR is a dynamic instability involving the coupling of the blades motion in the rotational plane (i.e. the lag motion) and the helicopter fuselage motion. A reduced linear system reproducing GR instability is used. It is obtained using successively Coleman transformation and binormal transformation. The analysis of the steadystate responses of this model is performed when a NES is attached on the helicopter fuselage. The NES involves an essential cubic restoring force and a linear damping force. The analysis is achieved applying complexification-averaging method. The resulting slow-flow model is finally analyzed using multiple scale approach. Four steady-state responses corresponding to complete suppression, partial suppression through strongly modulated response, partial suppression through periodic response and no suppression of the GR are highlighted. An algorithm based on simple criterions is developed to predict these steady-state response regimes. Numerical simulations of the complete system confirm this analysis of the slow-flow dynamics. A parametric analysis of the influence of the NES damping coefficient and the rotor speed on the response regime is finally proposed.

The dissolution test method and an analytical procedure by HPLC were developed and validated for dobesilate calcium tablets and acepifylline tablets. These drugs were not yet characterized by the dissolution specifications in Korean Pharmaceutical Codex. So, with each reference and test drugs, we did the preliminary and standard experiments based on the Korean Pharmacopeia Guideline of dissolution testing for solid oral dosage forms. The dissolution test for dobesilate calcium tablets was carried out under sink conditions as following: dissolution medium water, paddle rotation speed 50 rpm and vessel volume 900 ml. More than 90% of its label amount was released within 30 min in this method. Also the dissolution test for acepifylline tablets was carried out under sink conditions as follows: dissolution medium water, paddle rotation speed 100 rpm and vessel volume 900 ml. More than 90% of its label amount was released within 45 min in this method. The dissolution samples were analyzed with a precise and accurate HPLC method. The developed dissolution test showed specificity, linearity, precision and accuracy within the acceptable range. The dissolution testing method described above was adequate for the purpose and may be proposed as a pharmacopeial standard to assess the performance of dobesilate calcium tablets and acepifylline tablets.

Hypersonic vehicles over Mach 5 need active cooling or thermal management systems to resolve excessive heating problems on their fuselage and engines. Endothermic fuels are widely used these days not only for the energy source but also for a heat sink. Therefore, fuel supply systems of hypersonic vehicles should be mainly composed of adiabatic fuel storage tank, cooling systems for the airframe and engine/nozzle, and fuel supply/injection systems in high pressure, high temperature, and high fuel flow rate conditions. This paper describes a conceptual design process of a hypersonic fuel supply system in order for designing a layout of the system, and identifying components and their specification requirements.

PIV(Particle Image Velocimetry) velocity field measurements inside the snout of a1/10 scale model of the Zn plating process were carried out at the strip speed $V_s=1.5m/s$. Aluminum powder particles ($1{\mu}m$) and atomized olive oil ($3{\mu}m$) were used as seeding particles to simulate the molten Zinc flow and deoxidization gas flow, respectively. A pulsed Nd:Yag laser and a $2K{\times}2K$ high-resolution CCD camera were synchronized for the PIV velocity field measurement. From flow visualization study, it is found that the liquid flow in the Zn pot is dominantly governed by the uprising flow caused by the rotating sink roll, with its effect on the steel strip inside the snout largely diminished by installing of the snout. The deoxidization gas flow in front of the strip inside the snout can be characterized by a large-scale vortex rotating clockwise direction formed by the moving strip. In the rear side of the strip, a counter-clockwise vortex is formed and some of the flow entrained by the moving strip impinges on the free surface of molten zinc. The liquid flow in front of the strip is governed by the flow entering the snout, caused by the spinning sink roll. Just below the free surface a counter-clockwise vortex is formed near the snout wall. The moving strip affects dominantly the flow behind the strip inside the snout, and large amount of the liquid flow follows the moving strip toward the sink roll. The thickness of the flow following the strip is very thin in the front side due to the uprising flow, however thick boundary layer is formed in the rear side of the strip. Its thickness is increased as moving downstream toward the sink roll. Inside the snout, the deoxidization gas flow above the free surface is much faster than the liquid flow in the zinc pot. Due to the larger influx of the flow following the moving strip in the rear side of the strip, higher percentage of imperfection can be anticipated on the rear surface of the strip.
