  • We report a numerical analysis of the light-extraction efficiency (LEE) of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on patterned sapphire substrates (PSSs). We considered various n-sided, regular convex pyramids, where n is an integer and $n{\geq}3$. We then considered four cross sections: extruded, subtracted, truncated-extruded, and truncated-subtracted. Ray-tracing simulations were carried out with these polygonal pyramid patterns, and the dimensions of the patterns were systematically varied. Optimized pattern shapes were determined for large LEE. An extruded circular pyramid with a slant angle of $45^{\circ}$ was found to be the optimal patterned shape.

  • 인공건물의 평면특성에 대한 시각을 통한 인지를 청각으로 대체했을 경우의 인지능력을 측정하였다. 정상적으로 시각(visual)을 이용하겠으나, 시각 장애자의 경우는 청각(auditory) 또는 촉각(tactile) 또는 두가지 모두를 사용하게 된다. Psychophysical approach를 사용하여 모의평면에 대한 인지능력을 JND단위로 측정하였다. 청각적인 신호를 관찰자에게 제공하기 위해 전자장치(electronic ranging device)가 고안되었다. 이 장치는 목표물까지의 거리를 초음파의 이동시간으로 측정하여 음의세기(sound level)로 발생시켜 준다. 관찰자는 이 음의 세기를 듣고 거리를 추정하고 물표의 방향은 이 장비를 쥔 손의 방향, 즉, proprioceptive cue를 이용하게 된다. 세가지 task에 대한 실험은 평면의 slantness, 두 평면이 교차하는 모서리의 크기, 두 평면사이의 공간(aperture size)등에 대한 인지능력의 측정실험이다. 실험결과를 보면, 관찰자는 시각신호 대신에 청각신호를 사용할 수 있는 능력이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 세가지 task별 JND측정치는 slant angle 6도, 모서리의 concavity 10도, angular aperature size 3-5도로 나타났다. 이 결과는 정상인이 시각을 이용한 인지능력과 큰 차이가 없음을 보여주고 있다.

  • Both the physically handicapped people and the people of advanced age drive the electromotive cart of tricycle type the every day. When the public electromotive cart of tricycle type has inclined on the slant road or the bumpy road, the viewing angle of driver is changed at the same time. So the risk of traffic accident is increased. For the improvement of the above problem, the present study has made the electromotive cart installed to the new drivers seat on the basis of the 2 $\pi$ control theory.

  • Velvet fabric has soft touch, subtle luster, and good draping property. Threedimensional simulated models of cylindrical monofilaments constituting the velvet fabric were prepared. Image analysis techniques were used to measure the reflected light from the surface of velvet fabrics and the simulated images of the pile fibers. As the angle of incidence increased, the reflectance from the velvet surface became lower. Most of the reflection came from the tips of the cut piles. Crushed velvet type also was modeled using slant cylinder models on top of a base plate.

  • This paper describes the remote tracking algorithm using measurements (azimuth, elevation, and slant range) of the radar ground station. Kalman filter model for noise reduction of the measured information is first derived by linearizing with respect to angle, angular rate, range, and range rate. And then a tracking algorithm is introduced to calculate the position of the vehicle during in-flight. The simulation results show that the algorithm is practical and effective enough tracking position of the vehicle in considerably less error.

  • In this paper, we designed and fabricated an input-output coupler system using two or three volume gratings at 632.8nm wavelength. The additional third grating is added at the output coupler to enhance the overall efficiency. The experimental results show that the total system throughput reaches 63% with two-grating and 75% with three-grating input-output coupler. We also present a design method to obtain the desired output power ratio between the gratings.

  • Clotting properties of human blood are important clinical information to monitor for patients with platelet and coagulation disorders. Most devices used to diagnose these disorders utilize blood plasma together with tissue factors and $Ca^{{+}{+}}$ additives. In some instruments, magnetic particles were mixed with blood samples and a rotating magnetic field was applied, resulting in the rotation of magnetic particles, which was probed by impinging light. The working principle seems obvious yet had not been investigated in depth. We modeled the collective behavior of light propagating through magnetic needles, aligned in the direction of the rotating external magnetic field, with scattering light analysis software. Simulation results indicated that the scattering pattern undergoes periodic undulations with respect to the slant angle of the magnetic needles. Also provided is a means of extracting meaningful information from the scattering measurement.

  • In the present study, wind tunnel experiments were performed to reduce the drag of a paragliding helmet in the range of Reynolds numbers from 46,000 to 155,000. The drag force of the helmet model with dimples and deflectors installed was measured by varying the dimple depth and the slant angle of the deflector. The dimples were effective in reducing the drag at low Reynolds numbers, but no significant drag reduction was found in the Reynolds number range in which an actual paraglider flight takes place. On the other hand, the deflector installed tangentially to the side outline of the helmet showed an average drag reduction of 7% in the flight Reynolds number range of real paragliding. This was because the deflector shrunk the size of the wake region and moved the wake region downstream of the deflector.

  • This paper describes the development and measurement results of a wide-band planar active phase array antenna system for an electronic warfare jamming transmitter. The system is designed as an $8{\times}8$ triangular lattice array using a $45^{\circ}$ slant wide-band antenna. The 64-element transmission channel is composed of a wide-band gallium nitride(GaN) solid state power amplifier and a gallium arsenide(GaAs) multi-function core chip(MFC). Each GaAs MFC includes a true-time delay circuit to avoid a wide-band beam squint, a digital attenuator, and a GaAs drive amplifier to electronically steer the transmitted beam over a ${\pm}45^{\circ}$ azimuth angle and ${\pm}25^{\circ}$ elevation angle scan. Measurement of the transmitted beam pattern is conducted using a near-field measurement facility. The EIRP of the designed system, which is 9.8 dB more than the target EIRP performance(P), and the ${\pm}45^{\circ}$ azimuth and ${\pm}25^{\circ}$ elevation beam steering fulfill the desired specifications.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of target position on the bowling motion. Four female high school athletes with more than four years of bowling experiences were recruited to this study. The major results of this study are as follows; When a subject treats the 1st pin, The spin angle of a coxa for the target position is largely kept from the downswing to the backswing peak point. When a subject treats the 7th pin, As the 7th pin exists at the left side for the right shoulder axis of the thrower, the movement of the ball center of the thrower from side to side is the lowest. In addition, the time required and horizontal speed appear the highest in the release section. The slant angle of a shoulder is largely increased as she moves from the backswing peak point to the release section. The twist angle of a shoulder also appears small as a throw motion is made toward the left side. When a subject treats the 10th pin, The spin angle of a shoulder and the twist angle of a body in motion appear the largest in the release section. So, there are the effects of target position on the bowling motion.
