  • As the result of reduction of the barrier of national economy on matters of quality assurance of weighing instruments in recently, it is considering in domestic as well as international matters. Therefore, this study is to analysis and compare with international md national measuring standards on the electric self-indicating scale, to improve the quality of electronic machine by providing a reformation plan on currently problems of domestic manufactured, and to identify to introduce in domestic criteria from international standards. I had compared KSC 1313 to OIML R 76-1 as the performance assessment items, such as metrology Properties test, static temperature test, temperature effect testing under the un-load, electronic wave disturbance test, high-tempereature and high-humidity stability test and durability test. Therefore, only one company is passed all items of the test according to the international (reference) standards, but it is possible to improve the quality in general if it should be use the load cell and electric components which is stability of temperature change in order to supplementation to the static temperature test and temperature effect testing under the un-load. It is also possible to apply in the domestic with the OIML 76-1 after correcting the design.

  • Polyacrylamide (PAM) possesses high water absorption capacity and a unique pH-dependent behavior that confer large potential to enhance the engineering performance of clays. In this study, calcium bentonite was treated with a nonionic PAM. Flexible-wall permeability test and the consolidation test were performed at different pH values to evaluate the effects of PAM treatment on the hydraulic and consolidation properties. Test results demonstrate that index properties are affected by the adsorbed PAM on clay surface: a decrease in specific gravity, a decrease in net zeta potential, and an increase in liquid limit are observed due to the PAM treatment. At a given pH, the compressibility of the treated clay is greater than that of the untreated clay. However, the compression indices of untreated and treated clays can be expressed as a single function of the initial void ratio, regardless of pH. Hydraulic conductivity is reduced by PAM treatment about 5 times at both neutral and alkaline pH conditions under similar void ratios, because of the reduction in size of the water flow channel by PAM expansion. However, at acidic pH, the hydraulic conductivity of the treated clay is slightly higher than the untreated clay. This reflects that the treated bentonite with PAM can be beneficially used in barrier system for highly alkaline residues.

  • The analysis of the thermal boundary resistance is very important in the both cases of microscale and macroscale systems because it plays a role of thermal barrier against a heat flow. Especially, since fairly large heat energy is generated in microscale or nanoscale systems with electronic chips, the thermal boundary resistance is a key factor to guarantee the performance of those devices. In this study, the transfer of the oscillator's motion information with 2 degrees of freedom is investigated for clarifying the mechanism of a thermal boundary resistance. We found that the transfer of the oscillator's motion information is defined as a cross-correlation coefficient and the magnitude of it determines the temperature jump over a solid interface. That is, the temperature jump over an interface increases as the magnitude of a cross-correlation coefficient decreases and vice versa.

  • Construction industry is overwhelmed by delay and often has suffered cost and time overrun. In this context, Last Planner System (LPS) has been considered as a very useful tool for the management of the construction process. Many previous studies have reported its effectiveness in construction performance. This study aims to evaluate the level of importance of the Last Planner processes in the Vietnam construction industry (VCI), and analyze the existing barriers when implementing these processes in construction management. These barriers were collected based on previous studies from International Group for Lean Construction (IGLC). A survey was carried out through questionnaire. The respondents are been experienced people in construction project management. There are four processes of LPS that were investigated including master schedule, phase schedule, lookahead plan, and weekly work plan. The results showed that master schedule is the most important item when performing a construction project in the VCI. The highest degree of agreement belongs to 'owner - contractor' pair with 77.1% importance indices; whereas the lowest belongs to 'consultants - contractors' pair with 63.8% importance indices. Eventually, three barrier factors were extracted from factor analysis technique with 62.2% of variance explained.

  • As vehicles become intelligent for convenience and safety of drivers, in-vehicle networking (IVN) systems are essential components of intelligent vehicles. Recently, the chassis networking system which require increased network capacity and real-time capability is being developed to expand the application area of IVN systems. Also, FlexRay has been developed for the chassis networking system. However, FlexRay needs a complex scheduling method of static segment, which is a barrier for implementing the chassis networking system. Especially, if we want to migrate from CAN network to FlexRay network using CAN message database that was well constructed for the chassis networking system by automotive vendors, a novel scheduling method is necessary to be able to reduce design complexity. This paper presents a node-based scheduling method for FlexRay network system. And, in order to demonstrate the method's feasibility, its performance is evaluated through an experimental testbed.

  • Metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs)의 critical dimension (CD)가 sub 45 nm로 줄어듬에 따라 기존에 gate dielectric으로 사용하고 있는 SiO2에서 발생되는 high gate leakage current 때문에 새로운 high dielectric constant (k) 물질들이 연구되기 시작하였다. 여러 가지 high-k 물질 중에서, aluminum-oxide (Al2O3)는 높은 dielectric constant (~10)와 전자 터널링 barrier height (~2eV) 등을 가지기 때문에 많은 연구가 되고 있다. 그러나 Al2O3를 anisotropic한 patterning을 하기 위해 주로 사용되고 있는 halogen-based 플라즈마 식각 과정에서 나타나는 Al2O3와 하부 layer간의 낮은 식각 selectivity 뿐만 아니라 표면에 발생되는 defect, stoichiometry modification, roughness 변화 등의 많은 문제점들로 인하여 device performance가 감소하기 때문에 이를 해결하기 위한 많은 연구들이 진행중이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실리콘 기판위의 atomic layer deposition (ALD)로 증착된 Al2O3를 BCl3/Ar 중성빔을 이용하여 원자층 식각한 후 식각 특성을 분석해 보았다. Al2O3 표면을 BCl3로 absorption시킨 후 Ar 중성빔으로 desorption 시키는 과정에서 volatile한 aluminum-chlorides와 boron oxychloride가 형성되어 layer by layer로 제거됨을 관찰 할 수 있었다.

  • Cool roof coating materials generally use white color which has the highest reflectance, but it is a tendency to apply various colors because it can cause glare and fatigue of a nearby building user due to the urban beauty and high reflection. This study when applying color diversity material cool roof coating was carried out as a basic research for the degree of solar radiation reflectance change. Experiment result. As a result of the measurement of the reflectance of each specimen, white showed the best reflectance in the near infrared region, and black had the lowest reflectance. Also, in case of brown, it was confirmed that the reflectance of solar radiation in the near extrinsic region is lower than that of gray.

  • Advanced mobile communication devices require a bright, high information content display in a small, light-weight, low power consumption package. In this paper we will outline our progress towards developing such a low power consumption active-matrix flexible OLED ($FOLED^{TM}$) display. Our work in this area is focused on three critical enabling technologies. The first is the development of a high efficiency long-lived phosphorescent OLED ($PHOLED{TM}$) device technology, which has now proven itself to be capable of meeting the low power consumption performance requirements for mobile display applications. Secondly, is the development of flexible active matrix backplanes, and for this our team are employing poly-Si TFTs formed on metal foil substrates as this approach represents an attractive alternative to fabricating poly-Si TFTs on plastic for the realization of first generation flexible active matrix OLED displays. Unlike most plastics, metal foil substrates can withstand a large thermal load and do not require a moisture and oxygen permeation barrier. Thirdly, the key to reliable operation is to ensure that the organic materials are fully encapsulated in a package designed for repetitive flexing. We also present progress in operational lifetime of encapsulated T-PHOLED pixels on planarized metal foil and discuss PHOLED encapsulation strategy.

  • In order to protect occupant during car crash accident, Regulation and NCAP(New Car assessment Program) have been developed among various countries like U.S.A., Europe, Korea and Australia. Especially NCAP scores affect to sales of vehicles. So vehicle makers are trying to get good score in NCAP. Low leg injuries play an important role in Australia and Euro NCAP and these injuries are related with footrest design. Optimization of footrest design in early stage of vehicle development is necessary to obtain better and robust results of low legs during crash tests. In this paper, DFSS method and finite element model were used to optimize the low leg performance in small RHD vehicles. Compared with the lower leg injury of base model, the lower leg injury of proposed model was slightly improved and robustness was enhanced also.

  • We studied the effect of an Al underlayer on the growth of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and their field emission characteristics, First of all, CNTs were grown on the Invar catalyst layers with different thickness of 1 to 10 nm, showing that the CNT length was saturated for the catalyst 5 nm or thicker. The CNTs grown on the 5-nm-thick catalyst were ${\sim}10{\mu}m$ long and ${\sim}30nm$ in diameter. Second, an Al underlayer was applied between the catalyst layer and the Ti diffusion barrier to reduce the diameters of CNTs for better field emission properties by forming spherical Al oxide particles on which smaller catalyst nanoparticles would occur. The optimal thickness of an Al underlayer underneath the 5-nm-thick catalyst was ${\sim}15nm$, producing the CNTs with the length of ${\sim}15{\mu}m$ and the diameter of ${\sim}15nm$. The field emission measurements, following the tape activation, showed that the thinner and longer CNTs gave rise to better field emission performance with the lower turn-on and threshold electric fields.
