The excavation of twin tunnels is a process that destabilizes the ground. The stability of the tunnel lining, the control of ground displacements around the tunnel resulting from each excavation and the interaction between them must be controlled. This paper provides a new approach for replacing the costly 3D analyses with the equivalent 2D analyses that closely reflects the in-situ measurements when excavating twin tunnels. The modeling was performed in two dimensions using the FLAC2D finite difference code. The three-dimensional effect of excavation is taken into account through the deconfinement rate ${\lambda}$ of the soil surrounding the excavation by applying the convergence-confinement method. A comparison between settlements derived by the proposed 2D analysis and the settlements measured in a real project in Algeria shows an acceptable agreement. Also, this paper reports the investigation into the changes in deformations on tunnel linings and surface settlements which may be expected if the twin tunnels of T4 El-Harouche Skikda were constructed with a tunneling machine. Special attention was paid to the influence of the excavation phase shift distance between the two mechanized tunnel faces. It is revealed that the ground movements and the lining deformations during tunnel excavation depend on the distance between the tunnels' axis and the excavation phase shift.

In this paper, we propose a tunnel establishment scheme using Next Hop Resolution Protocol over mobile IP networks, which consist of LAN-based IP networks and ATM-based IP networks. As a basic idea, we use the shortest path algorithm to establish a short-cut tunnel between HA and FA. Also, we classify methods for establishing a short-cut tunnel into four cases considering the locations of HA, FA, CN and MN. To confirm the advantages of our schemes, which deliver packets using short-cut tunnel in optimized path method over mobile IP networks, we performed mathematical analysis and simulation, compared proposed schemes with existing IP routing method in terms of transmission delay between CN and MN. The simulation results show that our scheme have superior performance to that of existing IP routing mechanism, because the store-and-forward delay which occurred in IP routing mechanism is considerably reduced in short-cut tunnel over ATM networks.

Giant magnetoresistance (GMR), tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR), and magnetic random-access memory (MRAM) are currently active areas of research. Magnetite, Fe3O4, is predicted to possess as half-metallic nature, ~100% spin polarization (P), and has a high Curie temperature (TC~850 K). On the other hand, Spinel ferrite CoFe2O4 has been widely studies for various applications such as magnetorestrictive sensors, microwave devices, biomolecular drug delivery, and electronic devices, due to its large magnetocrystalline anisotropy, chemical stability, and unique nonlinear spin-wave properties. Here we have investigated the magneto-transport properties of epitaxial CoxFe3-xO4 thin films. The epitaxial CoxFe3-xO4 (x=0; 0.4; 0.6; 1) thin films were successfully grown on MgO (100) substrate by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The quality of the films during growth was monitored by reflection high electron energy diffraction (RHEED). From temperature dependent resistivity measurement, we observed that the Werwey transition (1st order metal-insulator transition) temperature increased with increasing x and the resistivity of film also increased with the increasing x up to $1.6{\Omega}-cm$ for x=1. The magnetoresistance (MR) was measured with magnetic field applied perpendicular to film. A negative transverse MR was disappeared with x=0.6 and 1. Anomalous Hall data will be discussed.

원자층 증착 기술 (Atomic Layer Deposition)은 기판 표면에서 한 원자층의 화학적 흡착 및 탈착을 이용한 nano-scale 박막 증착 기술이기 때문에, 표면 반응제어가 우수하며 박막의 물리적 성질의 재현성이 우수하고, 대면적에서도 균일한 두께의 박막 형성이 가능하며 우수한 계단 도포성을 확보 할 수 있다. 최근 ALD에 의한 박막증착 방법 중 플라즈마를 이용한 ALD 증착 방법에 대한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 플라즈마는 반응성이 좋은 이온과 라디컬을 생성하여 소스간 반응성을 좋게 하여, 소스 선택의 폭을 넓어지게 하고, 박막의 성질을 좋게 하며, 생산성을 높일 수 있는 장점이 있다. 그러나 플라즈마를 사용함으로써 플라즈마 내에 이온들이 가속되서 박막 증착 중에 기판 및 박막에 손상을 입혀 박막 특성을 열화 시킬 가능성이 있다. 따라서 플라즈마 발생 영역을 기판으로부터 멀리 떨어뜨린 원거리 플라즈마 원자층 공정이 개발 되었다. 이 기술은 플라즈마에서 생성된 ion이 기판이나 박막에 닫기 전에 전자와 재결합 되거나 공정 chamber에서 소멸하여 그 영향을 최소하고 반응성이 좋은 라디칼과의 반응만을 유도하여 향상된 막질을 얻을 수 있도록 하였다. 따라서 이 원거리 플라즈마 원자층 증착기술은 나노 테크놀러지 소자 개발하기 위한 나노 박막 기술에 있어서 그 활용이 점점 확대될 것이다. 그 적용으로써 리모트 플라즈마 원자층 증착 방법을 이용한 고유전 물질 개발이 있다. 반도체 소자의 고집적화 및 고속화가 요구됨에 따라 집적회로의 크기를 혁신적으로 축소하여 스위칭 속도(switching speed)를 증가시키고, 전력손실 (power dissipation)을 줄이려는 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 그 중 하나로 고유전율 절연막은 트렌지스터 소자의 스케일링 과정에 수반하여 커지는 게이트 누설 전류를 억제하기 위한 목적으로 도입되었다. 유전율이 크면 동일한 capacitance를 내는데 필요한 물리적인 두께를 늘릴 수 있어 전자의 tunneling을 억제할 수 있고 전력손실을 줄일 수 있기 때문이다. 이와 같은 고유전율 물질이 게이트 산화막으로 사용되기 위해서 높은 유전상수 열역학적 안정성, 낮은 계면 전하밀도, 낮은 EOT, 전극 물질과의 양립성 등의 특성이 요구되는데, 이에 따라 많은 유전물질에 대한 연구가 진행되었다. 기존 gata oxide를 대체하기 위한 가장 유력한 후보 재료로 주목 받고 있는 high-k 물질들로는 Al2O3, HfO2, ZrO2, La2O3 등이 있다. 본 발표에서는 ALD의 종류에 따른 기술을 소개하고 그 응용으로 고유전율 물질 개발 연구 (고유전율 산화물 박막의 증착, 고유전율 산화물의 열적 안정성 평가, Flatband 매카니즘 규명, 전기적 물리적 특성 분석)에 대해서 발표 하고자 한다.

In this study geostatistical technique using indicator kriging was performed to evaluate the optimal rock mass classification by integrating the various geophysical information such as borehole data and geophysical data. To get the optimal kriging result, it is necessary to devise the suitable technique to integrate the hard (borehole) and soft (geophysical) data effectively. Also, the model parameters of the variogram must be determined as a priori procedure. Iterative non-linear inversion method was implemented to determine the model parameters of theoretical variogram. To verify the algorithm, behaviour of object function and precision of convergence were investigated, revealing that gradient of the range is extremely small. This algorithm for the field data was applied to a mountainous area planned for a large-scale tunneling construction. As for a soft data, resistivity information from AMT survey is incorporated with RMR information from borehole data, a sort of hard data. Finally, RMR profiles were constructed and attempted to be interpreted at the tunnel elevation and the upper 1D level.

Using Electronic Detonators which is well known for controlling vibration, we have been studying Orchestra Blasting Method, OBM, for many years to transform the unpleasant blasting sound to favorable sound in some job-sites such as tunneling and bench blasting which have to been taken place near some structures needed great care. In this study, we focus on rhythmical sense. First, we acquired individual wave from a shot. With the program named the Program Blasting Wave, PBW, it was analyzed and found that its best delay time was 34ms and 50ms was acceptable. Also, delay time was fitted into the music which was accepted after analyzing the rhythm. As a result, the blasting sound along with the music felt comfortable as if the music was played with base drum.

Due to civil complaints on vibrations and noises arising from blasting, mechanical excavation has been widely used for tunneling rather than the method of blasting, especially in the case of being in a close-proximity of 10M-20M range to a safety-thing. However, mechanical excavation, though less, it does increase the cost of whole construction project as the period of excavation is much prolonged from lack of constructability. This study aims to research and develop an effective blasting method that can ensure the constructability of shortened excavation period whilst not compromising the safety of the safety-things in a proximity to the blasting site by using a combination of an electronic detonator that can accurately control its delay period and a Low Vibration Explosives(LoVEX) that is effective on vibration control.

The atomic structure of Sb/Si(5 5 12)-$2{\times}1$ surface, deposited at room temperature (RT) and post-annealed, has been identified by scanning tunneling microscopy and the corresponding interface has been studied by synchrotron core-level photoemission spectroscopy. With 0.3-nm Sb deposition at RT and postannealing at $600^{\circ}C$, the surface has been facetted to (225)-$2{\times}1$ and (112)-$1{\times}1$, and its Si 2p has shown that all the Si 2p surface components have disappeared, while the single Sb-Si interfacial component has appeared. Such results indicate that all of surface Si atoms are replaced by Sb atoms and the charge is transferred from Si to passivating Sb-atoms at the top layer. With subsequent postannealing up to $700^{\circ}C$, the surface has been facetted to (113)-$2{\times}2$ and (335)-$4{\times}2$, still having Sb-Si interfacial component and partially re-exposed Si surface components. From the present study, the role of surfactant atom, Sb, as well as the thermal-stabilization of Sb-passivated high-index Si surface will be exposed. Especially, the key role of the Sb/Si(113)-$2{\times}2$, composed of Rebonded-Dimer-Rebonded atom 1D structures, for stabilization will be discussed.

Mobile IP (MIP) is the solution supporting the mobility of Mobile Nodes (MNs), however, it is known to lack the support for NEtwork MObility (NEMO). NEMO manages situations when an entire network, composed of one or more subnets, dynamically changes its point of attachment to the Internet. NEMO Basic Support (NBS) protocol ensures session continuity for all the nodes in a mobile network, however, there exists a serious pinball routing problem. To overcome this weakness, there are many Route Optimization (RO) solutions such as Bi-directional Tunneling (BT) mechanism, Aggregation and Surrogate (A&S) mechanism, Recursive Approach, etc. The A&S RO mechanism is known to outperform the other RO mechanisms, except for the Binding Update (BU) cost. Although Improved Prefix Delegation (IPD) reduces the cost problem of Prefix Delegation (PD), a well-known A&S protocol, the BU cost problem still presents, especially when a large number of Mobile Routers (MRs) and MNs exist in the environment such as train, bus, ship, or aircraft. In this paper, a solution to reduce the cost of delivering the BU messages is proposed using a multicast mechanism instead of unicasting such as the traditional BU of the RO. The performance of the proposed multicast-based BU scheme is examined with an analytical model which shows that the BU cost enhancement is up to 32.9% over IPDbased, hence, it is feasible to predict that the proposed scheme could benefit in other NEMO RO protocols.
