In this paper, a monopole antenna of conical-cylindrical compound shape is presented. The conventional circular conical monopole antenna is modified by placing a cylinder at the top of the inverted cone. The cylindrical portion is useful in the wide band impedance matching, in adjusting the antenna gain in the horizontal direction, and in reducing the cone diameter. The dependence of the antenna performance on various geometric parameters is investigated using a commercial electromagnetic simulation software, from which an optimum design of the antenna is derived. The diameter of the circular ground plane is minimized to 115 wavelength at the lowest operating frequency. The antenna proposed in this study shows a reflection coefficient less than -10 dB and a 1${\sim}$6 dBi gain over 3${\sim}$20 GHz frequencies. The antenna shows a circular-symmetric radiation pattern in the horizontal plane and a null-free pattern in the vertical direction over the whole operating frequency range.

Underwater CCTV camera systems are increasingly replaced the traditional net approach of assessing the species, numbers and aggregation patterns of marine animals distributing around the artificial reefs installed in the inshore fishing grounds, in particular, in relation to the biological investigation of behavior and distribution patterns of target fishes. In relation to these needs, we developed a multi-directional underwater CCTV camera system to use in detecting and tracking marine animals in the artificial reef ground. The marine targets to be investigated were independently tracked by using a camera module toward the bottom and four camera modules installed in the interval of $90^{\circ}$ in horizontal plane and inclination of $45^{\circ}$ in vertical plane of the CCTV system without the overlap of video frames by each camera module. From the results of several field tests at sea, we believe that the developed multi-directional underwater CCTV camera system will contribute to a better understanding in evaluating the effect of artificial reefs installed in the inshore fishing grounds.

After the large destruction of Lisbon due to the 1755 earthquake, the city had to be almost completely rebuilt. In this context, an innovative structural solution was implemented in new buildings, comprising internal timber framed walls which, together with the floors timber elements, constituted a 3-D framing system, known as "cage", providing resistance and deformation capacity for seismic loading. The internal timber framed masonry walls, in elevated floors, are constituted by a timber frame with vertical and horizontal elements, braced with diagonal elements, known as Saint Andrew's crosses, with masonry infill. This paper describes an experimental campaign to assess the in-plane cyclic behaviour of those so called "frontal" walls. A total series of 4 tests were conducted in 4 real size walls. Two models consist of the simple timber frames without masonry infill, and the other two specimens have identical timber frames but present masonry infill. Experimental characterization of the in-plane behaviour was carried out by static cyclic shear testing with controlled displacements. The loading protocol used was the CUREE for ordinary ground motions. The hysteretic behaviour main parameters of such walls subjected to cyclic loading were computed namely the initial stiffness, ductility and energy dissipation capacity.

본 연구는 접경지역에 인접한 지역의 특성상 항공사진 촬영이 불가능한 지역 중 파주시에 대하여 1m 고해상도 스테레오 영상을 이용하여 1/5,000 대축척 수치지도 제작에 시험 적용한 연구이다. 위성영상의 정밀기하보정을 위하여 GPS 관측에 의하여 획득된 지상기준점을 이용하였으며, IKONOS 스테레오 영상과 디지털 해석도화기를 이용하여 수치지도를 제작하였다. 제작된 수치지도에 대하여 GPS를 이용한 현지 검사점 측량을 실시한 결과 평면과 수직위치의 RMSE는 각각 $\pm$1.706m와 $\pm$1.231m로 관측되었다. 이 수평과 수직위치 RMSE는 NGIS 수치지도의 정확도를 만족하는 값으로써 본 연구를 통하여 제안된 새로운 방법은 군사적 원인으로 인한 비행금지구역의 대축척 수치지도 제작을 위한 좋은 기회라고 할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the biomechanical effects of wearing different type of insole shoes on gait characteristics in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Seven patients with knee osteoarthritis (Grade 3 & 4 by Kellgren & Lawrence) were participated in the study. They wore two different type of shoes (with Gel-type Insole: GIS, with Normal insole: NIS) during gait. Three dimensional cinematography and Ground Reaction Force(GRF) data were used to get the maximal value of horizontal distance between the center of pressure in GRF and knee joint center, GRF in mediolateral direction, peak value of GRF in frontal plane, vertical compressive force and adduction moment in knee joint. The results were as follows: The maximal value of horizontal distance between the center of pressure in GRF and knee joint center was smaller in GIS than NIS. The peak value of GRF in mediolateral direction was found in 30% of gait cycle, five subjects wearing GIS showed lower value of peak GRF in mediolateral direction than wearing NIS. The peak value of GRF in frontal plane and vertical compressive force in knee joint did not show any difference between GIS and NIS. The adduction moment in GIS decreased in the late stance of gait and the mean value of the adduction moment in GIS smaller than that in NIS. GIS may help to move quickly knee joint center to the center of pressure in GRF, therefore it may prevent increasing the adduction moment in knee joint.

The various attempts is made to solve the energy and environment problems. In addition, people interested in their life quality want the more eco-friendly living space. So we suggested that the earth-sheltered house could be one of the eco-friendly and low energy consuming houses to meet the social interest. And we also made data for design of the earth-sheltered house to be applicable to climate of Korea. In this study, a simulation was performed to estimate a boundary temperature according to earth sheltering thickness at the earth-sheltered part(exterior wall) in the case of earth sheltering on the plane ground not using a sloped site. And we analyzed the reduction of a thermal load by using this boundary temperature. We also compared a case of earth sheltering at the vertical wall with a case of earth sheltering at the roof to know the thermal reduction effect of a case of earth sheltering at the vertical wall.

In this paper, a novel monopole antenna for WLAN/WiMAX application is presented. The proposed antenna consists of two arc-shaped strips, a vertical strip, and a slot in the ground plane. In this study, a prototype of the proposed triple-band antenna was designed, fabricated, and tested. The quantitative and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed antenna satisfy the -10 dB impedance bandwidth requirement of 440 MHz for 2.4/2.5 GHz bands (from 2.26 to 2.70 GHz), 970 MHz for 3.5 GHz bands (from 3.27 to 4.24 GHz), and 870 MHz for the GHz bands (from 5.08 to 5.95 GHz), while simultaneously covering the WLAN and WiMAX bands. In addition, the presented triple-band antenna has an omnidirectional radiation pattern at all three frequency bands with an antenna gain of 4.45 dBi for the lowest band, 2.04 dBi for the middle band, and 3.98 dBi for the highest band.

지표 레이다(Ground Penetrating Radar; GPR) 탐사를 모사하기 위해서, 시간 영역 유한 차분법을 이용하여 송수신 안테나를 고려한 3차원 모델링 알고리듬을 개발하였다. 국내에서 주로 사용되는 GPR탐사기기인 쌍극자 안테나를 모사하고, 안테나 끝점에서의 내부반사(ringing) 현상을 줄이기 위해 subcellular법을 사용하였다. 반무한 매질에서 종단 저항에 따른 출력 전압의 변화를 비교하여, 종단 저항의 수가 많아지면 내부반사가 줄어드는 반면 출력 전압이 작아진다는 사실을 알 수 있었고, 이 결과를 토대로 내부반사를 줄이는 쌍극자 안테나를 구현하였다. 각도에 따른 전기장 분포를 알기 위해 안테나에 직교하는 면과 안테나를 포함하는 면에서 방사 패턴을 구하였다. 안테나를 포함하는 면의 전기장 에너지가 안테나에 직교하는 면보다 안테나 직하부로 집중되는 현상을 볼 수 있었다.

연직드레인의 유효반경내에서 시간과 압밀도 관계를 계산하기 위해 음적차분해법이 적용되었으며 계산시 과잉간극수압의 소산은 두 방향으로 수행된다. 다단계 성토에 의한 지중응력 증분을 계산하기 위해, 지표면하의 연약지반은 등방균질 탄성체로서 간주하였고 각 단계 순간성토시 초기 과잉간극수압은 포화된 점성토내에서 평면변형률 조건과 탄성단계의 간극수압 응답 상태에 대한 Skempton의 간극수압계수를 이용해 계산하였다. 침하에 대해서는, 즉시 및 1 차 압밀침하량만 계산하였고, 2차 압밀침하는 고려하지 않았다. 계산된 과잉간극수압과 지표침하량이 경과시간에 대한 현성측성치와 유사한 것으로 판정되었으며, 본 연구에 적용된 계산기법(압밀특성이 다른 다층지반으로 구성된 연약지반내에 연직배수공법을 적용하고 성토가 다단계 순간성토로 이루어질 경우 과잉간극수압 소산과정을 음적 차분해법으로 근사계산)은 각 연약층의 시간-압밀도 관계를 예측하는데 이용가능할 것으로 생각된다.

This paper presents a new algorithm for the self-localization of a mobile robot using one degree perspective Invariant(Cross Ratio). Most of conventional model-based self-localization methods have some problems that data structure building, map updating and matching processes are very complex. Use of a simple cross ratio can be effective to the above problems. The algorithm is based on two basic assumptions that the ground plane is flat and two locally parallel sloe-lines are available. Also it is assumed that an environmental map is available for matching between the scene and the model. To extract an accurate steering angle for a mobile robot, we take advantage of geometric features such as vanishing points. Feature points for cross ratio are extracted robustly using a vanishing point and intersection points between two locally parallel side-lines and vertical lines. Also the local position estimation problem has been treated when feature points exist less than 4points in the viewed scene. The robustness and feasibility of our algorithms have been demonstrated through real world experiments In Indoor environments using an indoor mobile robot, KASIRI-II(KAist Simple Roving Intelligence).
