  • In this study, we fabricate a superhydrophobic surface made of hierarchical nanostructures that combine wax crystalline structure with moth-eye structure using vacuum cluster system and measure their hydrophobicity and durability. Since the lotus effect was found, much work has been done on studying self-cleaning surface for decades. The surface of lotus leaf consists of multi-level layers of micro scale papillose epidermal cells and epicuticular wax crystalloids [1]. This hierarchical structure has superhydrophobic property because the sufficiently rough surface allows air pockets to form easily below the liquid, the so-called Cassie state, so that the relatively small area of water/solid interface makes the energetic cost associated with corresponding water/air interfaces smaller than the energy gained [2]. Various nanostructures have been reported for fabricating the self-cleaning surface but in general, they have the problem of low durability. More than two nanostructures on a surface can be integrated together to increase hydrophobicity and durability of the surface as in the lotus leaf [3,5]. As one of the bio-inspired nanostructures, we introduce a hierarchical nanostructure fabricated with a high vacuum cluster system. A hierarchical nanostructure is a combination of moth-eye structure with an average pitch of 300 nm and height of 700 nm, and the wax crystalline structure with an average width and height of 200 nm. The moth-eye structure is fabricated with deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) process. $SiO_2$ layer is initially deposited on a glass substrate using PECVD in the cluster system. Then, Au seed layer is deposited for a few second using DC sputtering process to provide stochastic mask for etching the underlying $SiO_2$ layer with ICP-RIE so that moth-eye structure can be fabricated. Additionally, n-hexatriacontane paraffin wax ($C_{36}H_{74}$) is deposited on the moth-eye structure in a thermal evaporator and self-recrystallized at $40^{\circ}C$ for 4h [4]. All of steps are conducted utilizing vacuum cluster system to minimize the contamination. The water contact angles are measured by tensiometer. The morphology of the surface is characterized using SEM and AFM and the reflectance is measured by spectrophotometer.

  • Fast and high-quality document clustering algorithms play an important role in providing data exploration by organizing large amounts of information into a small number of meaningful clusters. Hierarchical clustering improves the performance of retrieval and makes that users can understand easily. For outperforming of clustering, we implemented hierarchical structure with variety and readability, by careful selection of cluster topic words and deciding the number of clusters dynamically. It is important to select topic words because hierarchical clustering structure is summarizes result of searching. We made choice of noun word as a cluster topic word. The quality of topic words is increased $33\%$ as follows. As the topic word of each cluster, the only noun word is extracted for the top-level cluster and the used topic words for the children clusters were not reused.

  • This study was conducted to evaluate the vegetation structure of the Peucedanum japonicum community by the phytosociological method of floristic composition table and cluster analysis on the southern coast of Korea. The vegetation of the Peucedanum japonicum community was classified mainly into 2 communities such as the Miscanthus sinensis community and the Lysimachia mauritiana-Rosa wichuraiana community. The Carex boottiana and Sedum oryzifolium community were classified as the lower rank of Miscanthus sinensis community. On level 1 of the cluster analysis of plant species, they were classified into Lysimachia mauritiana and Rosa wichuraiana group, also Miscanthus sinensis, Carex boottiana and Sedum oryzifolium in Peucedanum japonicum community, which is similar to the community classification shown in the synoptic table. On level 1 of the cluster analysis of relev, inland coast with Jejudo was Lysimachia mauritiana and Rosa wichuraiana of group such as level 1 of the cluster analysis of plant species, and island coast with Geomundo was Miscanthus sinensis Carex boottiana and Sedum oryzifolium of group such as cluster analysis of plant species.

  • We present a large scale structure consisting of eight galaxy filaments around the Virgo cluster in the window of -20 Mpc < SGX, SGZ < 20 Mpc, and 4 Mpc < SGY < 32 Mpc using the HyperLEDA database. While six of the filaments were reported in previous studies, two filaments are newly found in this study. We exploited a large number of faint ($M_B$ < -10) galaxies in comparison with previous studies, which facilitates defining filaments more clearly. The previously known filaments are all in SGY < 16 Mpc and appear to distribute in association with the Virgo cluster in galaxy distribution. Moreover, peculiar velocities of galaxies in these filaments show a distinct offset from the Hubble flow indicating their infall motion toward the Virgo cluster. All of these results confirm that these filamentary structures are under the gravitational influence of the Virgo cluster. Both of the newly discovered filaments are located beyond the 'zero-velocity surface' of the Virgo cluster. One of them is associated in the NGC5353/4 group and the other one appears to penetrates the W and M group of the Virgo cluster. The filamentary structure around the Virgo cluster consisting mainly of the dwarf galaxies allows us to achieve a better understanding of large scale structure and its influence on the build-up of the galaxy cluster at z~0.

  • This paper introduces the PC clustering of the SIMD structure for a distributed processing of on-line contingency to assess a static security of a power system. To execute on-line contingency analysis of a large-scale power system, we need to use high-speed execution device. Therefore, we constructed PC-cluster system using PC clustering method of the SIMD structure and applied to a power system, which relatively shows high quality on the high-speed execution and has a low price. SIMD(single instruction stream, multiple data stream) is a structure that processes are controlled by one signal. The PC cluster system is consisting of 8 PCs. Each PC employs the 2 GHz Pentium 4 CPU and is connected with the others through ethernet switch based fast ethernet. Also, we consider N-1 line contingency that have high potentiality of occurrence realistically. We propose the distributed process algorithm of the SIMD structure for reducing too much execution time on the on-line N-1 line contingency analysis in the large-scale power system. And we have verified a usefulness of the proposed algorithm and the constructed PC cluster system through IEEE 39 and 118 bus system.

  • 본 연구는 광역적 산업클러스터의 관점에서 영남지역 기계금속산업클러스터의 형성과정과 연계 구조를 설명하고자 하였다. 그간의 국내외 연구들에서 광역적 산업클러스터에 대한 이론적, 경험적 연구가 미흡한 실정이었다면, 이론적인 분석과 함께 영남지역 기계금속산업클러스터를 대상으로 구체적인 사례연구를 시도한 것이다. 이를 위해 먼저 광역적 산업클러스터의 형성과정 및 구조에 관한 모델을 이론적으로 검토하였다. 광역적 산업클러스터의 형성과정은 외연확산형과 연계 심화형 그리고 복합형으로 구분될 수 있는 것으로 사료된다. 그리고 광역적 산업클러스터의 내부 구조는 다양하며, 흔히 광역클러스터와 그 하위에 존재하는 개별 산업클러스터가 중층적 (혹은 다층적) 구조를 형성하고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 남지역에서 광역적 산업클러스터가 형성된 과정을 살펴보면 거시적 관점에서 개별 산업도시(산업클러스터)들이 점차 연계를 심화한 계심화형으로 분류할 수 있다. 그러나 부산이나 대구 대도시권에서 발생한 제조업 교외화 과정에서 산업클러스터의 외연 확산이 있었으며, 그러한 점에서 보다 엄격히 말한다면 연계심화형에 부분적으로 외연확산형이 혼합된 복합형이라고 할 것이다. 영남지역의 광역적 기계금속산업클러스터는 공간적 차원에서 중층적 구조를 가지고 있는 것으로 확인 되었다. 영남지역 대부분을 포함하는 광역 클러스터가 작동하는 한편으로, 그 하위에는 포항, 울산, 창원, 거제 등 개별 산업클러스터들이 독자적 단위로 존립하고 있는 것이다.

  • Clustering is one of the key technologies in vehicular networks. Constructing and maintaining stable clusters is a challenging task in high mobility environments. DWCM (Distributed and Weighted Clustering based on Mobility Metrics) is proposed in this paper based on the d-hop dominating set of the network. Each vehicle is assigned a priority that describes the cluster relationship. The cluster structure is determined according to the d-hop dominating set, where the vehicles in the d-hop dominating set act as the cluster head nodes. In addition, cluster maintenance handles the cluster structure changes caused by node mobility. The rationality of the proposed algorithm is proven. Simulation results in the NS-2 and VanetMobiSim integrated environment demonstrate the performance advantages.

  • This paper investigates the nature of Japanese argument cluster (Steedman 2000b). Based on Combinatory Categorial Grammar, a type-raising analysis of case particles which captures some aspects of the information structure in Japanese is discussed, including contrastive interpretation of coordination, wh-constructions, and some theme and rheme-related grammatical phenomena. These observations offer further support for the study of syntax, semantics, and phonology interface and the earlier analysis of English information structure.

  • Pentamer cluster of azodicarbonamide (ADA) based on the crystalline structure was investigated for the equilibrium structure, the stabilization energies, and the vibrational properties at various levels of the density functional theory. Stretching force constants of N${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$H or O${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$H, and angle-bending force constants of N-H${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$N or N-H${\cdot}{\cdot}{\cdot}$O for intermolecular hydrogen bonds in the pentamer cluster were obtained in 0.2-0.5 mdyn/$\AA$ and 1.6-2.0 mdyn$\AA$, respectively. The geometry of central ADA molecule fully hydrogen bonded with other four molecules shows good coincidence to the crystalline structure except the bond distances of N-H. Calculated Raman and infrared spectra of central ADA molecule in cluster represent well the experimental spectra of ADA obtained in the solid state compared to a single molecule. Detailed structural and vibrational properties of central ADA molecule in the pentamer cluster are presented.
