The HLA is the simulation architecture standard that the civilian and military simulation communities are deeply interested in. We can find various successful practices applying HLA to constructive simulations such as war games in domestics and overseas. However, any case of real-time distributed simulations has not been reported. The reason is that a message transmission period via RTI in a network layer varies according to computing power, simulation nodes, transmission types, and packet size; further a message processing time in an application layer depends on its processing methods, thus too difficult to set up real-time constraints for the enhancement of a real-time resolution. Hence, in this paper we have studied the real-time constraints of RTI for the development of the M-SAM simulator. Thus we have developed a HLA based pilot simulator using 6 PC's in LAN and then measured and analysed the performance of the RTI. As the results of our work, we could obtain the quantitative values for message delay, RTI overhead and RTI packet transmission ratio by a real operation scenario and loads, which are not shown in the previous works. We also expect that the results can be used as a guideline to set up the number of targets, transmission frequency and message processing method in the development of the M-SAM simulator and similar applications.

By employing a rapid solidification method and atmospheric annealing at $450^{\circ}C-1hr$, we were able to manufacture inexpensively granular CuCo alloy ribbons with thickness of $20{\mu}m$ showing giant magnetoresistance (GMR) ratio of more than 5% at a high magnetic field of 0.5T. To verify maximum MR effect, the MR ratio, saturation magnetization, and microstructure change were investigated with Co contents between 5 and 30 at%. It was possible to obtain GMR ratios of 5.2% at 1.2T, and 3% at 0.5T, which implies an appropriate MR for industrial purpose at a Co content of $8{\sim}l4%$. MR ratio was reduced rapidly at a Co content below 5% due to superparamagnetic effect and at a Co content above 20% due to agglomeration of Co clusters. Surface oxidation during rapid solidification and atmospheric annealing did not have much affect on MR ratio. Our result implies that our economic CuCo granular alloy ribbons may be appropriate for high magnetic field sensor applications with wide content range of $8{\sim}14$ at%Co.

The recycling possibility of aluminum waste dross(AWD) as a ceramic raw material of porous light-weight material was examined. A aluminum waste dross was washed 4-7 consecutive times and roasted at 900$^{\circ}% for 1hour as pre-treatments. The properties of the pre-treatment of aluminum waste dross was investigated. It was conformed by XRD result that the spinel crystalline was grown in AWD, after roasting. After the roasted AWD was ground in aqueous state, the sodium hexaphosphate(SHP) as a dispersant which is used for stabilizing the concentrated slurry was added to the AWD slurry. The porous material was prepared by slurry foaming method with surfactant at room temperature. The foamed slurry volumes were 2 and 3 times of the original slurry volume. The properties of porous material with extended volume of 3 times was following: the porosity was about 84%, bulk density was 0.59 g/cm$^3$, the range of pore was from 50 ${\mu}m$ to 500 ${\mu}m$ and mean pore size was about 200 ${\mu}m$. AWD porous material was sintered at 1150$^{\circ}C-1250$^{\circ}C. It was colcluded that AWD was sintered well at 1200$^{\circ}C from material surface observation by SEM.

The synthesis and crystallization of amorphous calcium carbonate($CaCO_3$.$nH_2 O$) obtained from gas-liquid reaction between aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide and carbon dioxide at 15~$50^{\circ}C$ are investigated by electrical conductometry, XRD and TEM. The results are as follows: The initial reaction products prior to the formation of precipitated calcium carbonate is amorphous calcium carbonate. The electrical conductivity values in the slurry are decreased during the formation of amorphous calcium carbonate which covers particle surface of calcium hydroxide and retard the dissolution of calcium hydroxide into the solution. that amorphous calcium carbonate is unstable in the aqueous solution and crystallizes finally to calcite by the through-solution reaction. While amorphous calcium carbonate crystallizes into chain-like calcite, the conductivity values are recovered rapidly and the apparent viscosity of slurry containing higher concentration of calcium hydroxide increase. At below pH 9.5, chain-like calcite separates into individual particles to form precipitated calcium carbonate. The formation and synthetic temperature range of amorphous calcium carbonate is most suitable a primary decreasing step(a-step) at $15^{\circ}C$ in the electrical conductometry.

The objective of this study is to develop a continuous rainfall-runoff model for flood prediction on a large-scale basin. For this study, the hourly surface runoff estimation method based on the variable retention parameter and runoff curve number is developed. This model is composed that the soil moisture to continuous rainfall can be simulated with applying the hydrologic components to the continuous equation for soil moisture. The runoff can be simulated by linking the hydrologic components with the storage function model continuously. The runoff simulation to large basins can be performed by using channel storage function model. Nakdong river basin is selected as the study area. The model accuracy is evaluated at the 8 measurement sites during flood season in 2006 (calibration period) and 2007~2008 (verification period). The calibrated model simulations are well fitted to the observations. Nash and Sutcliffe model efficiencies in the calibration and verification periods exist in the range of 0.81 to 0.95 and 0.70 to 0.94, respectively. The behavior of soil moisture depending on the rainfall and the annual loadings of simulated hydrologic components are rational. From this results, continuous rainfall-runoff model developed in this study can be used to predict the discharge on large basins.

Tubular $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ membranes with $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Ti_{0.3}Fe_{0.7}O_{3-{\delta}}$ porous coating layer were prepared by extrusion and dip coating technique. XRD and SEM result showed the tubular membrane possessed the perovskite structure and porouscoating layer (thickness= about $2{\mu}m$) in surface. The oxygen permeation test was measured at condition of ambient air (feed side) and vacuum (permeate side) in the temperature range from 750 to $950^{\circ}C$. The oxygen permeation flux of $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ tubular membrane with $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Ti_{0.3}Fe_{0.7}O_{3-{\delta}}$ porous coating layer reached maximum $3.2mL/min{\cdot}cm^2$ at $950^{\circ}C$ and was higher than non-coated $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$ tubular membrane. Long-term stability test result indicated that the oxygen permeation flux was quite stable during the 11 day.

Three plans(induction of water flow, supply of oxygen into water, control of fish causing resuspension of solids) proposed to improve the pollutant removal efficiency of Sihwa Constructed Wetland(CW) were estimated by considering the their efficiency and application to the wetland. After construction of facility for induction of water flow in lower part(W 122m${\times}$L 103m) of the wetland, the mean removal efficiencies of BOD, SS, TN and TP were in range of 12.8~37.4% and BOD was showing the highest efficiency. This result indicates that water flows is one of very important factors in the pollutant removal of wetland, especially near the outlet of a large scale wetland such as Sihwa CW. Dissolved oxygen(DO) concentrations after operation of two oxygen supply systems such as Air Bubble Diffuser and Surface Aeration System increased 15.5% and 27.2%, respectively. For maintaining effective DO concentration in Sihwa CW, the operation of oxygen supply system may be desirable during midnight to dawn in the location in which DO concentration is not enough, for instance less than 2 mg/L in CW. In experiments of the fish removal from Sihwa CW, the mean turbidity was lower in test site(6.2 NTU) than control site(10.6). The removal efficiency of thurbidity by th fish removal from the wetland was 41.5%. Therefore, a relevant fish management through a periodical monitoring of fish and turbidity is needed.

ZnO- TiO$_2$, and Sn0$_2$ - Ti0$_2$ ceramic composites doped with TiO$_2$ were prepared and their electrical and 1000ppm CO gas sensing properties were investigated. The phases of samples were analyzed by XRD, and the microsturctures of the fractured surface of samples were observed by SEM. A carbon monoxide gas sensitivity was de¬fined as the ratio of the resistance in dry air atmosphere(R$drt air$) to the resistance in 1000ppm CO gas atmosphere(R$_co$) The CO gas sensitivity of Smol% Ti0$_2$-added ZnO decreased about 1.7 times compared to that of pure ZnO. On the other hand, the maximum CO gas sensitivity of Ti0$_2$-added SnO$_2$ increased about 2.5 times compared to that of pure SnO$_2$. Therefore, the CO gas sensitivies of SnO$_2$-TiO$_2$ composite were better than those of ZnO- Ti0$_2$ and the temper¬ature range showing the maximum sensitivity for Sn0$_2$-TiO$_2$ composite was lower than that for ZnO- Ti0$_2$.

As the engine design changes to get high efficiency and performance of commercial diesel engine, surface w wear of the earn follower becomes an important issue as applied load increasing at the contact face between cam follower and cam. We developed the ceramic cam follower made of sili$\infty$n nitride ceramic which was more wear resistant than the cast iron or sintered metal cam follower. Ceramic cam follower was made by direct brazing of thin ceramic disk to steel body using an active brazing alloy without the interlayer. In-situ crowning(R), resulted from the difference of thermal expansion coefficient between ceramic and carbon steel after direct brazing without any stress-relieving inter]ayer, could be controlled. When a earbon steel was heated above $A_{c1}$ point and then c$\infty$led, the expansion curve represented a hysteresis. Appropriate crowning was achieved below the $A_{c1}$ point(about $723^{\circ}C$) and crowning increased with brazing temperature exponentially above the $A_{c1}$ point. Optimum brazing temperature range was from 700 to $720^{\circ}C$. We developed successfully the ceramic cam follower having appropriate crowning and being inexpensive. Also we could successfully control the crowning of ceramic earn follower by hysteresis behavior of thermal expansion of earbon steel during direct brazing process.

Fluorinated amorphous carbon (a-C:F) films were prepared by an electron cyclotron resonance chemical vapor deposition (ECRCVD) system using a gas mixture of $C_2F_6$ and $CH_4$ over a range of deposition temperature (room temperature ~ 300$^{\circ}C$). 500$^{\AA}C$ thick DLC films were pre-deposited on Si substrate to improve the strength between substrate and a-C:F film. The chemical bonding structure, chemical composition, surface roughness and dielectric constant of a-C:F films deposited by varying the deposition temperature were studied with a variety of techniques, such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and capacitance-voltage(C-V) measurement. Both deposition rate and fluorine content decreased linearly with increasing deposition temperature. As the deposition temperature increased from room temperature to 300$^{\circ}C$, the fluorine concentration decreased from 53.9at.% down to 41.0at.%. The dielectric constant increased from 2.45 to 2.71 with increasing the deposition temperature from room temperature to 300$^{\circ}C$. The film shrinkage was reduced with increasing deposition temperature. This results ascribed by the increased crosslinking in the films at the higher deposition temperature.
