In this study, on automatic ultrasonic testing system is used to detect defects of flawtest specimen. We study the effects of the difference of ultrasonic damped rate of the different materials on the judgment of defects. The results indicate that the difference of sensitivity compensating quantity is 2dB, and the judgment is correct over $90\%$ when a specimen is judged as a defect when it exceeds third grade.

This experiment was carried out to study on the effect of surface coating on thermal insulation of farm structures to improve thermal resistance and reflective effect of solar radiation. Nine different types of experimental specimen were compared in the temperature variations of inside and outside; A, B, C, D. E and F types are box container and G, H and I types are drum container. The size of these containers is $1,500{\times}2,000{\times}2,500$ mm and ${\varphi}$ $280{\times}330$ mm, respectively. Specimen of 3-type box(A, B, C) is galvanized steel sheet of thickness 0.45 mm. D, E and F types are sandwich panel of the thickness 50 mm inserted with urethane, glass wool and polystyrene form, respectively. G, H and I types are paint pot using in general. The surface of A. D, E, F and I types didn't any treatment, B, C and G types were treated with thermal insulation coating on the outside surface(B, G) or the inside and outside surface(C). And H type was treated with water paint coating on the only outside surface. In general, the experimental results showed the following tendencies; In case of A, B and C types. it was found that the thermal insulation effect of types coated with thermal insulation coating was improved remarkably than that of no treatment. And the thermal insulation effect between steel sheet and sandwich panel type was nearly similar There was not a significant difference of thermal insulation effect between thermal insulation coating and water paint coating. In time of drum container filled with rough rice, The difference of heat transfer tendency and temperature variation among surface treatments was nearly similar that of box types of galvanized steel sheet. And there was time lag about 6 hours between the temperature of middle part of rice and that of inside or outside surface.

Two output ports of $90^{\circ}$ hybrid-coupler are generally the same output power with $90^{\circ}$ phase difference. But, Two output ports of $90^{\circ}$ hybrid-coupler must be the different output slope characteristic about frequency because of the different electrical length. In $90^{\circ}$ hybrid-coupler being the same power distribution, 3-dB power distribution at two output ports only exists near the center frequency. And, the output power difference between two output ports increases in accordance with the further away from the center frequency. This paper proposes $90^{\circ}$ hybrid-coupler being the similar output slope characteristic of two output ports in wideband to modify the ${\lambda}/4$ transmission line of $35-{\Omega}$ characteristic impedance between input port and output port near input port. The power difference between two output ports of the proposed circuit is below 0.2dB over 20% bandwidth of the center frequency in ADS(advanced Design System).

Four different fermentation methods of Korean cucumber pickles were compared with conventional method, pickling in 10% NaCl solution at $25^{\circ}C$, in order to improve the storage stability. The methods studied were brining the cucumbers in hot($90^{\circ}C$) 10% NaCl solution(method A), addition of KCl and $CaCl_2$ into the hot salt solution(method B) addition of a sodium salts mixture of phosphates, nitrite and citrate into half fermented pickles prepared by method B(method C), substituted nitrite and citrate with KCl in method C(method D). It was found from results that the method C and D reduced the decreasing rate of pH very significantly by more than 3 fold and method B also showed the reducing effect. However, higher total acidity was measured for method C and D, which was opposite to pH results. Changes in hardness of cucumber showed little difference to control while color of brining solution exhibited some difference in their Hunter values. Organoleptic comparison showed a clear effect of salts mixtures by receiving the significant higher scores in fresh cucumber flavor and lower values in yeast moldy and sour flavor for method C and D when those were compared to control.

A RF microstrip balun having low transmission loss for the balanced receiving dipole antenna is designed and fabricated using a three-section Wilkinson divider and two 3-dB quadrature couplers. It considers two types of the three-section Wilkinson dividers, the Cohn's optimum three-section structure and the miniaturized three-section structure, for wideband power splitting. Also, two 3-dB quadrature couplers for 180 degrees of phase difference adopt a twist-wire coaxial cable. The fabricated first balun having the Cohn's optimum three-section Wilkinson divider has 0.5 dB of transmission loss, $\pm$0.2 dB of amplitude imbalance, and 180$\pm$2.3 degrees of phase imbalance over 400 to 1000 MHz by measurement. The second one using the miniaturized three-section Wilkinson divider shows 1.0 dB of transmission loss, $\pm$0.7 dB of amplitude imbalance, and 180$\pm$8.8 degrees of phase imbalance over the same frequency band.

In this paper, we investigated the performances of the distributed video codec with adaptive Gray code to apply for frame-difference signal. That is, the best cases and the worst cases were analyzed and compared by considering the statistical characteristics of the frame difference signal in view of the Gray code allocation. Through computer simulations, if 9-bit data for frame difference signal is generated for luminance signal with 8-bit definition and so n-bit is allocated to the quantized coefficient, we were able to find the best method to reduce the virtual channel noise by adding $256+2^{9-n-1}$ to the frame difference signal. Through computer simulation with test video sequences, it was shown that the performance difference between the best cases and the worst cases is larger than about 1.5dB at same rate. It is expected that the results in this paper are applicable for the transform-domain scheme as well as the pixel-domain scheme.

The aim of this study was to use a 3D human body scanner to analyze the cross section of different body parts when a girdle is worn. Two types of girdles were selected as experimental garments: a standard type girdle (Garment A) and a high-waist type girdle (Garment B). Their sizes were 88 (S) and 94 (M). Ten female subjects in their twenties who wear girdles sizes 88 (S) and 94 (M) participated the experiment. Their bodies were scanned three times with the 3D human body scanner, before and after wearing experimental girdles. The data were collected by overlapping the cross sections of the 3D scanned body shape data. The space length was measured from the overlapped cross sections. The results show that human body silhouette are changed after wearing the compression type garments and the amount and place of the body change is different by style of garments. First, the waist girth shape became rounder. Second, there was a definite difference in space amount at abdomen girth between two types of girdle. The abdomen area was pushed toward the front after wearing the standard type girdle (A). The high-waist type girdle (B) pushed abdomen area toward the back. Third, there was clear difference at the hip area after wearing two types of girdle. The hip area pushed toward the front with the standard type girdle (A) and pushed toward the back with the high-waist type girdle (B).

In this paper, we propose the design of a dual-band GPS antenna using in-direct feeding pads. The antenna consists of an upper patch for the GPS L1 band, a lower patch for the GPS L2 band, and two pads on the middle layer for feeding the two radiating patches. A hybrid chip coupler with a phase difference of $90^{\circ}$ is employed at the two feeding ports for achieving a broad circular polarization (CP) bandwidth. The proposed antenna shows bore-sight gains of 3.0 dBic(L1) and 5.1 dBic(L2), and axial ratios of 3.3 dB(L1) and 0.3 dB(L2) by measurement. The active element patterns of the fabricated array with 7 elements show bore-sight gains of -0.4 dBic (L1) and -2.4 dBic(L2), respectively. It proves that the proposed antenna structure is suitable for use in GPS array applications.
