Nowaday, almost of practical energy is come from the fossil fuel, such as coal, oil and gas those are limited and caused the environmental pollution. For these reason. solar energy is come into notice as a new alternative energy source to overcome the shortage of electricity in the $future^{(1)}$. In this paper, small PV system using photo sensor for tracking sun is developed and is verified by experiments.

The objective of this study was to increase the utilizability of domestic thinning and small diameter wood as applying in pattern design which can be applied in interior decoration, wood craft and wood furniture, and in developing the designs of furniture and household items. Then we investigated the physical and mechanical characteristics of Acer mono wood by pressurization and heat treatment. Color change is clear, and the wood density is increased with increasing pressing rate. The compressive and bending strengths are decreased as heating time is increased after pressing. However, shrinkage is improved after pressing and heating.

Results of an experimental study on the manufacture and the mechanical properties of carbon fiber reinforced fly ash-cement composites are presented in this paper. The carbon fiber reinforced fly ash-cement composites using silica powder and a small amount of Ethylene vinyl acetate emulsion are prepared with carbon fiber, foaming agents and curing conditions. As a result, the manufacturing process technology of carbon fiber reinforced fly ash-cement composites is developed. And the mechanical properties such as compressive, tensile and flexural strengths and drying shrinkage of lightweight carbon fiber reinforced fly ash-cement composites are improved by using a small amount of Ethylene vinyle acetate emulsion. The development and applications of precast products and the design systems of lightweight carbon fiber reinforced fly ash-cement composites are expected in the near future.

Due to the increase of the number of farmers who have entrepreneurial intentions and the expansion of governmental support to invigorate the regional economy, the interest in manufacture of high-quality agricultural processed food is increasing, and the study of the method to realize it efficiently is continuing. Especially, the method to visualize a manufacturing process by simulation and analyze it to extract an improved scheme has advantages of saving time and cost in comparison with trial and error method. In this study, the current manufacturing environment was analyzed by applying simulation on Korean traditional sweets, which is typical agricultural processed food. By extending this kind of method into small businesses processing other agricultural products, as well as Korean traditional sweets, it can draw strengthening of comparativeness through the improvement of productivity and product quality.

This paper presents an innovative design for a low-speed, direct-drive, axial-flux permanent-magnet (AFPM) generator with a coreless stator and rotor that is intended for application to small wind turbine power generation systems. The performance of the generator is evaluated and optimized by means of comprehensive 3D electromagnetic finite element analysis. The main focus of this study is to improve the power output and efficiency of wind power generation by investigating the electromagnetic and structural features of a coreless AFPM generator. The design is validated by comparing the performance achieved with a prototype. The results of our comparison demonstrate that the proposed generator has a number of advantages such as a simpler structure, higher efficiency over a wide range of operating speeds, higher energy yield, lighter weight and better power utilization than conventional machines. It would be possible to manufacture low-cost, axial-flux permanent-magnet generators by further developing the proposed design.

In this paper, we designed Interpolation FIR(Finite Impulse Response) filter and 1-bit SDM(Sigma- Delta Modulator) for small digital audio speaker, which has low power consumption and high output characteristics. In order to achieve high linearity and low distortion performance of the systems, we adopt Type I Chevychev FIR filter which has equiripple characteristics in the pass band and proposed high efficient FIR filter structure. SDM is the most efficient modulation technique among the noise shaping techniques. In this paper, we implemented SDM using CIFB(Cascade of Intergrators, Feed-Back) which is generally used in DAC of small digital audio speakers. The proposed SDM structure can achieve high SNR, high-efficiency characteristics and low power consumption in mobile devices. Also considering manufacture of SoC(System on Chip), we performed simulation with Matlab and Verilog HDL to obtain optimal number of operational bits and verified a good experimental results.

Snap-fit is being used in manufacture of plastic products. Integral features using snap-fit are classified as locks, locators and enhancements. Locking features complete the process of attachment by providing physical interference to prevent separation. Looking feature pairs consist of two components, i.e., a flexible latch and a rigid catch and require particular care and attention for their selection. We can make several locking feature pairs by selecting latch and catch, but some parts restrict freedom of selection. Therefore, part designers must know the characteristic properties of generic locking feature forms as considering a specific design problem. In this paper, it has been presented about problem of small size products using locking feature and then introduced new locking feature applicable to small parts.

Recently, most machineries have been small size and mobile type. Then the motors used in this field are developed in micro size such as about 2mm in diameter. The structure of this motor is similar to a general brushless DC motor but because of small sige there is no position sensor such as hall sensor. In this paper, we propose synchronous driving and control method for micro brushless DC motor without position sensor. We design and manufacture this controller and perform experiment to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A die-casting junction method is usually used to manufacture the tub of an IH(induction heating) jar. If there is a very small air bubble in the junction area, the thermal conductivity is deteriorated and local overheat occurs. Such problem brings serious inferiority of the IH jar. In this paper, we propose a new method to detect such defect with simply measured thermal data. Thermal distribution of preheated tubs is obtained by scanning with infrared thermal sensors and analyzed with the statistic pattern recognition method. By defining the characteristic feature as the temperature difference between sensors and using ellipsoid function as decision boundary, a supervised learning method of genetic algorithm is proposed to obtain the required parpameters. After applying the proposed method to experiment, we have proved that the rate of recognition is high even for a small number of data set.
