The purpose of this study is to evaluate the photoneutron characteristics generated by the linear accelerator target and collimator. The computer simulation design firstly, consisted of a target, a single material target and a composite material target. Secondly, it consisted of a cone beam and a fan beam depending on the type of the collimator. Finally, the material of the fan beam collimator is composed of a single material composed of only lead (Pb) and a composite material collimator composed of tungsten (W) and lead (Pb). The research method calculated the photoneutron production rate and energy spectrum using F2 tally from the surface of a virtual sphere at a distance of 100 cm from the target. As a result, firstly the photoneutron production rate was 20% difference, depending on the target. Secondly, depending on the type of the collimator, there was a 10% difference. Finally, depending on the collimator material, there was a 40% difference. In the photoneutron energy spectrum, the average photoneutron flux tended to be similar to the photoneutron production rate. As a result, it was confirmed that the 9 MeV linear accelerator photoneutron are production increased more by the collimator than by the target, and by the material, not the type of the collimator. Selecting and operating targets and collimator with low photoneutron production will be the most active radiation protection. Therefore, it is considered that this research can be a useful data for introducing and operating and radiation protection of a linear accelerator for container security inspection.

In this paper, high purity RF sputter-type ion source for non-mass separated ion beam deposition was evaluated. The fundamental characteristics of the ion source which is composed of an RF Cu coil and a high purity Cu target (99.9999 %) was studied, and the practical application of Cu thin films for ULSI metallization was discussed. The relationship between the DC target current and the DC target voltage at various RF power and Ar gas pressures was measured, and then preparation conditions for Cu thin films was described. As a result, it was found that the deposition conditions of the target voltage, the target current and the Ar pressure were optimized at -300 V, 240 W and 9 Pa, respectively. The resistivity of Cu films deposited at a bias voltage of -50 V showed a minimum value of 1.8 $\pm$ 0.1 $mu\Omega$cm, which is close to that of Cu bulk (1.67 $mu\Omega$cm).

Exchange coupled $NiFe/TbCo/Sio_{2}$ thin films for magnetoresistive heads were sputter deposited using RF diode sputtering method, and their magnetic characteristics were measured. TbCo films were deposited using a composite target, which is composed of Tb chips epoxied on a Co target. NiFe($400\AA$)/TbCo($1500\AA$)/$SiO_{2}$($500\AA$) films were deposited using a TbCo target having 30 % of Tb area ratio, which showed 25 Oe of the exchange field without substrate bias and 12 Oe with -55 V of substrate bias. The effective in-plane coercivities of the three layer films fabricated with less than -55 V of substrate bias were approximately proportional to the perpendicular coercivities of the TbCo layer only. The films fabricated with a Theo target of 28 % area ratio showed the same trend. However, the exchange field decreased to 4 Oe without the substrate bias and 7 Oe with -55 V of substrate bias. In the films fabricated with 1000 W of power and the target of 36 % area ratio exhibited 100 Oe of exchange field and 3 Oe of coercivity. As the thickness of NiFe layer increased, the exchange field decreased.

An air-to-ground guidance missile aimed to hit a main battle tank(MBT) should detect a ground moving target and estimate the target position to guide. In this paper, we detect a front ground moving target by using FMCW(Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) and estimate the position by forward-looking SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) via scanning certain front ground section by steering a beam with narrow beamwidth left to right mechanically. Also, by MLE(Maximum Likelihood Estimation), degree of how fast the target approach or recede from the radar can be figured out from the estimated radial velocity of the moving target. Subsequently, we generate a radar image via corrected matched filter from phase history including the radial velocity.

As a global effort to conservate the environment, life cycle assessment(LCA) which considers the environmental impact through the life cycle of a product, from acquiring of resources to scrapping, has been actively applied. The LCA is a tool to calculate quantitatively the environmental impacts caused by products or services through their life cycles. Eco-efficiency need that express value of environmental impact provision EMU and develops in two forms according to use target of Eco-efficiency as a tool that environmental impact of EMU. It is a strategic instrument which assists stakeholders to understand which products, processes or services to target with future investments and which are not by comparing economic and ecological values. The results stand for aggregated information on economical value and environmental impact. Also, In this method, it is important to derive EPI(Environmental Performance Index) and SPI(Service Performance Index) from the sources available. The following is used as one of Eco-efficiency tools to achieve the target performance of processes, products and services for designer or projector. According to the eco-efficiency methodology for EMU developed in this study, the user definition and the DB design were carried out as a basic design of eco-efficiency S/W.

IAZO (indium aluminium zinc oxide) anode films were co-sputtered on glass substrate using a dual target DC magnetron sputtering system. For preparation of IATO films, at constant DC power of IZO (indium zinc oxide) target of 100 W, the DC power of AZO (Aluminum zinc oxide) target was varied from 0 to 100 W. To analyze electrical and optical properties of IAZO anode, Hall measurement examination and UV/V is spectrometer were performed, respectively. In addition, structure of IAZO anode film was examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. Surface smoothness was investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). From co-sputtered IAZO anode, good conductivity($2.32{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}.cm$) and high transparency(approximately 80%) in the visible range were obtained even at low temperature deposition. Finally, J-V-L characteristics of phosphorescent OLED with IAZO anode were studied by Keithley 2400 and compared with phosphorescent OLED with conventional ITO anode.

When the bluetooth technology of smartphone is applied to a remote control system, communication errors caused by wave attenuation and interference results in the shortening of communication distance, loss of the target device control and malfunctioning. In this study, we propose a method to adopt a retransmission persistence controlled S/W ARQ in bluetooth communication to minimize the effect of the communication failure and to detect and handle the state where the target device gets lost control. We implemented a motor-driven RC car equpped with a bluetooth communication module and a steering application program on smartphone to test the proposed method. The experiments are conducted in three communication environments, and have resulted in the increase of the communication distance by at least 30% when S/W ARQ is applied. Moreover, when the communication was disrupted due to environmental disturbances, the S/W ARQ based system stopped immediately any undergoing operations to avoid possible malfunction.

A high rate deposition sputtering process of magnesium oxide thin film in oxide mode has been developed using a 20 kW unipolar pulsed power supply. The powersupply was operated at a maximum constant voltage of 500 V and a constant current of 40 A. The pulse repetition rate and the duty were changed in the ranges of 10 ${\sim}$ 50 kHz and 10 ${\sim}$ 60 %, respectively. The deposition rate increased with increasing incident power to the target. Maximum incident power to the magnesium target was obtained by the control of frequency, duty and current. The deposition rate of a moving state was 9 nm m/min at the average power of 1.5 kW. This technique is proposed to apply high through-put sputtering system for plasma display panel.

In this study, an optimization design of reinforced concrete structures is performed by using the structural optimization techniques based on the LRFD criteria. The target reliability index is estimated by the optimal reliability index considering the expected cost which is taken as a sum of the structural cost and the expected costs due to failure of the structure. The load and resistance factors calculated by using level I reliability theory with the target reliability index are compared for each load combination (D+L, D+L+w). The results of this study show that the resistance factors are ${\phi}_{M}$=0.90, ${\phi}_{V}$==0.70, ${\phi}_{C}$==0.65 and the load factors are 1.20D + 1.70L, 1.07L + 0.07L + 1.10W. The optimization techinques used to this study are S.L.P. The optimization design based on the LRFD criteria is more economical and rational than other criteria.

This paper presents the fundamental study on rational manufacture of Ultra High Strength(VHS) concrete using industrial by-products as like silica fume, slag and fly ash. In this study, we had tested various mixing cases to manufacture the UHS concrete(target compressive strength : over $1,000kgf/cm^2$) which is easily workable (target slump flow : $60{\pm}10cm$). The main variables are studied: 1) to find the optimum replacement ratio of mineral admixture. 2) to find a rational water-binder ratio and a proper binder content. 3) to find the method for reduction of slump loss. From the test results, it is concluded that the rational mix design can be made by using 40% slag, 10% silica fume. We found that compressive strength of UHS concrete increases according to decreasing W/B ratio but in W/B ratio 18~20%, the difference is vague and the compressive strength does not necessarily increase according to increasing binder content over 700kg.
