Broadband operation of Y-junction microstrip circulator withlnonreciprocal device is predicteg by Rosenbaum using Bosma's Green function analysis. The anslysis has been modified to enable the scattering matrix and therefore the circulator bandwidth, to be found. The width of the coupling transmission lines is found to be a significant design parameter${\psi}$. A comparison of experimental and theoretical results for the 3-port junction shows that wide lines and a smaller 7.5U than usual disk radius can be used to obtain broadband operation. Circulator operates in the frequency band 5-11 GHz. The obtained maximum insertion loss is 0.5dB and the isolation is more than 15dB.

We present a calculation model for an improved quantitative theoretical analysis of electronic and optical properties of strained-piezoelectric[111] InGaAs/GaAs superlattices (SLs). The model includes a full band-coupling between the four important energy bands: conduction, heavy, light, and spin split-off valence bands. The interactions between these and higher lying bands are treated by the k ${\cdot}$ p perturbation method. The model takes into account the differences in the band and strain parameters of constituent materials of the heterostructures by transforming it into an SL potential in the larger band-gap material region. It self-consistently solves an $8{\times}8$ effective-mass $Schr{\ddot{o}}dinger$ equation and the Hartree and exchange-correlation potential equations through the variational procedure proposed recently by the present first author and applied to calculate optical matrix elements and spontaneous emission rates. The model can be used to further elucidate the recent theoretical results and experimental observations of interesting properties of this type of quantum well and SL structures, including screening of piezoelectric field and its resultant optical nonlinearities for use in optoelectronic devices.

A general equivalent circuit model is developed for a wireless energy transfer system composed of multiple coils via coupled magnetic resonances. To verify the developed model, four types of wireless energy transfer systems are fabricated, measured, and compared with simulation results. To model a system composed of n-coils, node equations are built in the form of an n-by-n matrix, and the equivalent circuit model is established using an electric design automation tool. Using the model, we can simulate systems with multiple coils, power sources, and loads. Moreover, coupling constants are extracted as a function of the distance between two coils, and we can predict the characteristics of a system having coils at an arbitrary location. We fabricate four types of systems with relay coils, two operating frequencies, two power sources, and the function of characteristic impedance conversion. We measure the characteristics of all systems and compare them with the simulation results. The flexibility of the developed model enables us to design and optimize a complicated system consisting of many coils.

A finite element analysis for a rotating cantilever beam is presented in this study. Based on a dynamic modeling method using the stretch deformation instead of the conventional axial deformation, three linear partial differential equations are (derived from Hamilton's principle. Two of the linear differential equations show the coupling effect between stretch and chordwise deformations. The other equation is an uncoupled one for the flapwise deformation. From these partial differential equations and the associated boundary conditions, two weak forms are derived: one is for the chordwise motion and the other is fur the flptwise motion. The weak farms are spatially discretized with newly defined two-node beam elements. With the discretized equations or the matrix-vector equations, the behaviors of the natural frequencies are investigated for the variation of the rotating speed.

A synthesis method for a chitosan-coated magnetic drug-delivery system of cisplatin is proposed. Here, cisplatin was conjugated to the surface of Magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$) nanoparticles via a (3-Aminopropyl)-trimethoxysilane (APTS) coupling agent. To reduce the cytotoxic effect of cisplatin, the magnetic drug was then encapsulated in chitosan (CS-cisplatin-$Fe_3O_4$) through the water/oil (W/O) emulsion method. The CS-cisplatin-$Fe_3O_4$ nanoparticles were synthesized in a spherical shape with a diameter of 190 nm. The cytotoxicity assay was performed using HeLa cells. The cisplatin uptake of the cells was determined using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to calculate the drug content. The controlled release of cisplatin was demonstrated by regulating the dissolution and diffusion of the drug through the chitosan matrix.

Two beam/column elements in order to analyze the geometric nonlinear plane framed structures including the effects of transverse shear deformation and bending stretching coupling are developed. In the case of the first element (finite segment method), tangent stiffness matrix are derived by directly integrating the equilibrium equations whereas in the case of the second element (finite element method) elastic and geometric stiffness matrices are calculated by using the hermitian polynomials including shear deformation effect as the shape function. Both elements possess the usual six degree of freedoms. Numerical results are presented for the selected test problems which demonstrate that both elements represent reliable and highly accurate tools.

Carbon fiber/epoxy composites using electrodeposited monomeric and polymeric coupling agents were compared with the dipping and the untreated cases. Treating conditions such as time, concentration and temperature were optimized. Four-fibers embedded micro-composites were prepared for fragmentation test. Interfacial properties of four-fiber composites with different surface treatments were investigated with simultaneous acoustic emission (AE) monitoring. The microfailure mechanisms occurring from fiber break, matrix and interlayer crackings were examined by AE parameters and an optical microscope. It was found that interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of electrodeposited carbon fibers was much higher than the other cases under dry and wet conditions. Well separated and different-shaped AE groups occurs for the untreated and ED treated case, respectively.

The present study has numerically analyzed the vaporization characteristics of fuel droplets in the high temperature convective flow field. The axisymmetric governing equations for mass, momentum, energy, and species are solved by an iterative and implicite unstructured finite-volume method. The moving boundary due to vaporization is handled by the deformable unstructured grid technique. The pressure-velocity coupling in the density-variable flows is treated by the SIMPLEC algorithm. In terms of the matrix solver, Bi-CGSTAB is employed for the numerically efficient and stable convergence. The n-decane is used as a liquid fuel and the initial droplet temperature is 300K. Computations are performed for the nonevaporating and evaporating droplets with the relative interphase velocity(25m/s). The unsteady vaporization process has been simulated up to the nondimensional time, 25. Numerical results indicate that the mathematical model developed in this study succesfully simulates the main features of the droplet vaporization process in the convective environment.

The purpose of this study is to investigate reinforced effect between silica treated by coupling agents and rubber matrix under the configuration chemical bonds, and the effect of silica particles coated by organic polymers using aluminum chloride as the catalyst. In vulcanization characteristies were tested by Curastometer. The M-series vulcanizates were reached to the fastest optimum cure $time(t_{90})$ and R-series vulcanizates with the same formula had the shorted optimum cure times. Tensile characteristics measuring with a tensile tester revealed that the M-series vulcanizate was the best in the physical properties, such as tensile strength. In 100% modulus, however, the S-series vulcanizates appeared to be better than the other vulcanizates. Also, hardness showed the following order : S-series>R-series>M-series with the order of elongation R-series>M-series>S-series. In SEM test, shapes of chemical treated silicas were observed. The dispersion of filler in the SBR composite appeard uniformly. In RDS test for the dynamic characteristics, G' indicates that S-3 shows the highest value with the next order M-3>R-3, and the order of damping values are as followe: M-3>M-3>R-3.

대형선박, 항공기, 초고층 건축물 등은 얇은 박판 형태의 보로 이상화하여 구조 및 진동해석을 수행할 수 있다. 이러한 형태로 이상화한 구조물은 비틀림 강도면에서 매우 취약함을 보이고, 굽힘-비틀림 진동은 단면형상에 따라 연성도가 심화된다. 상하 굽힘 진동은 탄성거동 영역에서 도심과 전단중심이 일치하는 대칭 진동(Symmetric vibration) 현상을 보인다. 그러나, 수평 굽힘 진동은 도심과 전단중심의 차이가 커질수록 즉, 연성도가 높아질수록 비틀림 진동과 복합되어 복잡한 비대칭 진동(Antisymmetric vibration) 현상을 나타낸다. 본 논문에서는 연성효과에 의한 수평 굽힘 진동과 비틀림 진동 현상에 대한 연구를 수행하였고, 진동계산을 위해서 전달행렬법(Transfer Matrix Method)을 사용하였다. 수치계산은 첫번째로, 도심과 전단중심의 차이가 매우 작아 연성도를 무시할 수 있을 정도의 구조물에 대해서 일반적인 수평 굽힘 진동 현상과 비틀림 진동 현상을 연구하였다. 두번째로, 연성도가 매우 심할 경우에 굽힘-비틀림 연성 진동 현상을 Timoshenko 보의 이론과 Vlasov 보의이로네 따라 각각 계산을 수행하였다. 마지막으로, 첫번째와 두번째 구조를 결합한 경우에 대해서 굽힘-비틀림 연성 진동 현상을 연구하였다. 이 경우에 두 구조물의 결합부에서 비틀림 강성과 Warping 강성의 심한 변화로 인한 불연속 경계면이 발생하게 되고 이때의 진동해석을 위해서 보 이론에 기초를 두고 상당히 높은 정확도를 제공하는 Haslum[2] 등과 Pedersen[3]이 제시한 이론을 이용하였다.
