  • A logical measure is suggested to estimate an accurate Sound Speed Profile (SSP) for the unusual variation of salinity in the Yellow Sea. Based on National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)'s Aqua and Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite data, this measure identifies the area of temperature inversion effect and expansion of low salinity (<30.5 psu) water. Subsequently, on the area, the Conductivity, Temperature, and Depth (CTD) mounted unmanned maritime system estimates accurate SSP. In order to carry out this measure conveniently, a flow chart is demonstrated in this research. By using this measure which finds the high variational salinity area, the inaccuracy issue for calculating SSP from Expandable Bathy Thermograph (XBT) is expected to be solved.

  • It is obvious that understanding the effects of shallow water environment of Korea is very important to guarantee the optimal performance of active sonar such as monostatic and bistatic sonar. For this reason, in this paper, we analyzed the detection performance characteristics for various depth deployments of sonar in summer, winter and water temperature inversion environments, which environments are frequently observed in shallow water of Korea such as the Yellow sea. To analyze only effects of water temperature structures on target detection performance, we applied range independent conditions for bottom, sea surface and water temperature characteristics. To understand the characteristics of detection performance, we conducted transmission loss and signal excess modeling. From the results, we were able to confirm the characteristics of detection performance of active sonar. In addition, we verified that operation depth of transmitter and receiver affects the detection performance. Especially in the water temperature inversion environment, it was confirmed that the shadow zone could be minimized and the detection range could be increased through bistatic operation.

  • A temperature compensated Crystal Oscillator is widely used for the stable frequency source of mobile communication equipments. Recently, it has become necessary to reduce power consumption of TCXOs. In this paper, we have proposed a TCXO using weak inversion MOS transistors and have evaluated its fundamental characteristics.

  • The steady state response of a rotating generalized thermoelastic solid to a moving point load has been investigated. The transformed components of displacement, force stress and temperature distribution are obtained by using Fourier transformation. These components are then inverted and the results are obtained in the physical domain by applying a numerical inversion method. The numerical results are presented graphically for a particular model. A particular result is also deduced from the present investigation.

  • The present research deals with the deformation in transversely isotropic thin circular thermoelastic rotating plate due to time-harmonic sources. Frequency effect in the presence of rotation and two temperature is studied under thermally insulated as well as isothermal boundaries. The Hankel transform technique is used to find a solution to the problem. The displacement components, stress components, and conductive temperature distribution with the radial distance are computed in the transformed domain and further calculated in the physical domain using numerical inversion techniques. Some specific cases are also figured out from the current research.

  • Temperature is an essential process variable in nanoimprint lithography(NIL) where the temperature varies between room temperature and above the glass transition temperature. To simulate NIL process, we employ both the Nose-Poincare method for temperature controlled molecular dynamics(MD) and force field for polymer material i.e. polymethyl methacrylate(PMMA), which is most widely selected as NIL resist. Nose-Poincare method, which convinces the conservation of Hamiltonian structure and time-reversal symmetry, overcomes the drawbacks inherent in the conventional methods such as Nose thermostat and Nose-Hoover thermostat. Thus, this method exhibits enhanced numerical stability even when the temperature fluctuation is large. To describe PMMA, we adopt the force field which account for bond stretch, bending, torsion, inversion, partial charge, and van der Waals energy.

  • A special upper-air observation including airsonde and pibal observations was performed to investigate the characteristics features of the vertical distribution of the meteorological elements over Taegu on a selected clear day of each season from October 1991 to August 1992. The diurnal and seasonal variations of the vertical profiles of air temperature and mixing ratio were obtained from airsonde observations and wind speed and direction from pibal observations. The results of these special upper-air observations are as follow : The diurnal variation of the vertical distribution of air temperature reveals the characteristic features associated with the atmospheric boundary layer. All case days, except for the summer season, show upper-level inversion layer which influenced by surface high, and surface inversion layer produced by radiative cooling. The diurnal variation of mixing ratio shows the maximum vale at 1500 LST in both the upper and low levels, and is larger on the lower level than the upper level. The mixing ratio of the lower level is larger than that of the upper level. On the average the mixing ratio decrease with the height, and is the wettest on the summer case day and the driest on the winter case day. The diurnal variation of the wind velocity and direction are variable in the lower level with time and height, while they are steady in the upper level. On the average, the wind direction is southerly or southeasterly for the summer case day, westerly or northwesterly for the spring and fall case days, and northerly or northwesterly for the winter case day.

  • The addition of water into oil phase containing hydrophobic emulsifier while stirring forms W/O emulsions. When dispersed phase increase up to a certain extent, phase inversion into O/W emulsions occurs and just before phase inversion O/W/O emulsions exist in a mixed state with W/O emulsions. Thus this experiment was carried out to examine O/W/O emulsions formation in W/O emulsions. The viscosity of sample emulsions(water phase: $H_2O$, oil phase : TGCR-containing olive oil) was measured at the shear rate of 1.92 to 384 per second and at temperature of 25$\pm$0.1$^{\circ}C$, and the development of O/W/O emulsions evaluated from the difference between theoretical and measured values by substituting measured value for Mooney's equation. The formation of O/W/O emulsions tended to be high in sample emulsions just before phase inversion and increase with decreasing TGCR concentrations. This result suggests that high viscosity observed right before phase inversion may also be caused by the formation of O/W/O emulsions.

  • We fabricated Ni/Co(or Co/Ni) composite silicide layers on the non-patterned wafers from Ni(20 nm)/Co(20 nm)/poly-Si(70 nm) structure by rapid thermal annealing of $700{\~}1100^{\circ}C$ for 40 seconds. The sheet resistance, cross-sectional microstructure, and surface roughness were investigated by a four point probe, a field emission scanning electron microscope, and a scanning probe microscope, respectively. The sheet resistance increased abruptly while thickness decreased as silicidation temperature increased. We propose that the poly silicon inversion due to fast metal diffusion lead to decrease silicide thickness. Our results imply that we should consider the serious inversion and fast transformation in designing and process f3r the nano-height fully cobalt nickel composite silicide gates.
