One common method to select input ground motions to predict dynamic behavior of structures subjected to seismic excitation requires spectral acceleration (S_a) match target mean response spectrum. However, dispersion of ground motions, which explicitly affects the structural response, is rarely discussed in this method. Generally, selecting ground motions matching target mean and variance has been utilized as an appropriate method to predict reliable seismic response. The goal of this paper is to investigate the impact of target spectra variance of ground motions on structural seismic response. Two sets of ground motions with different target variances (zero variance and minimum variance larger than inherent variance of the target spectrum) are selected as input to two different structures. Structural responses at different heights are compared, in terms of peak, mean and dispersion. Results show that increase of target spectra variance tends to increase peak floor acceleration, peak deformation and dispersions of response of interest remarkably. To short-period structures, dispersion increase ratios of seismic response are close to that of S_a of input ground motions at the first period. To long-period structures, dispersions of floor acceleration and floor response spectra increase more significantly at the bottom, while dispersion increase ratios of IDR and deformation are close to that of S_a of input ground motions at the first period. This study could further provide useful information on selecting appropriate ground motion to predict seismic behavior of different types of structures.

A novel, unique, and effective method for carbon nanotube (CNT) dispersion by the free arc stimulation is proposed. CNTs are introduced as an aerogel into the air space via the dispersion method and can be utilized as a solution by adding it to solvents. The volume of the original generated CNT aerogel with a high-volume expansion ratio displays a performance two orders of magnitudes better than that of raw CNTs, which is considered a powerful characterization of the dispersion effect. The CNT aerogel, which was observed by scanning electron microscopy also showed a satisfactory dispersion morphology. Its structure and properties were tested before and after dispersion by Raman spectroscopy and great consistency was observed, which proved that the CNTs were undamaged. This approach may greatly promote the large-scale application of CNTs.

광섬유의 분산이 균일하지 않다는 가정 하에 색 분산과 자기 위상 변조 (SPM : Self Phase Modulation) 현상에 의해 왜곡된 WDM 채널의 보상 특성을 수치적으로 살펴보았다. 본 연구에서 사용한 보상 기법은 전체 전송 링크 중간에 광 위상 공액기 (OPC： Optical Phase Conjugator)를 두어 보상하는 MSSI (Mid-Span Spectral Inversion)이다. OPC를 중심으로 두 광섬유 구간의 분산 계수 분포가 변동하면서 서로 일치하지 않은 경우에도 전송 채널의 입력 전력을 적절히 조절함으로써 MSSI를 통해 장거리 전송이 가능하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 즉 장거리 WDM 시스템에 MSSI를 적용하게 되면 전송 선로 곳곳에 필요한 보상기(compensator) 등을 없앨 수 있고, 결과적으로 시스템 비용을 절감할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구에서는 기존의 가스발생기 사이클 액체로켓 엔진 모드해석 프로그램(GEMAT)을 개선하여 엔진 구성품이 가지는 성능 분산으로 인한 시스템 수준에서의 성능 분산을 계산 하는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 본 프로그램을 이용하여 엔진 내부 인자의 성능 분산을 보정하기 위해 필요한 각 배관에서의 보정용 여유차압을 산정하는 방법을 제시하였다. 또한 이를 활용하여 기존의 엔진 보정 방법을 보완하여 보정용 차압을 최적화하고 이를 통해 펌프 토출압을 감소시키거나 연소실의 연소압을 높임으로써 전체 엔진의 비추력 향상을 꾀할 수 있는 보정 방법을 제시하였다.

In this paper, The Influence of chromatic fiber dispersion on the transmission distance of MMW(millimeter-wave) link is analyzed and discussed. It is shown that dispersion significantly limits the transmission distance in intensity modulated direct detection and heterodyne links operating in the above 20㎓ frequency region by inducing a carrier to noise penalty on the transmitted signal. We analyze and discuss the influence of dispersion induced CNR(Carrier to Noise Ratio) penalty for direct detection and heterodyne method from simulation.

In this paper, a new scheme to calculate the weighting factor of the 2-D isotropic-dispersion finite difference time domain(ID-FDTD) is proposed. The weighting factor in [1] was formulated in free space, so that it may not be optimal in dielectric media. Therefore, the weighting factor was reformulated by considering the material properties and using the least mean square method. As a result, a minimum numerical dispersion error for any dielectric media is guaranteed.

In an earlier work, we proposed the chromatic dispersion monitoring technique of non-return to zero (NRZ) signal based on clock-frequency component (CFC) through numerical simulations. However, we have not yet shown any experimental demonstration or analytic derivation of it. In this paper, we show an experimental demonstration and analytic derivation of the proposed chromatic dispersion monitoring technique. We confirm that the experimental results and the analytic results correspond with the simulation results. We also demonstrate that monitoring range and accuracy can be improved by using a simple clock-extraction method.

광섬유의 색 분산과 자기 위상 변조 외에 상호 위상 변조 효과에 의해 왜곡된 WDM 채널 신호가 MSSI (Mid-Span Spectral Inversion) 기법을 통해 보상되는 정도를 다양한 광섬유 분산 계수를 고려하여 분석해 보았다. 본 연구에서 고려된 시스템은 120 Gbps (3$\times$40 Gbps) 강도 변조 직접 검파 방식의 WDM 시스템이다. 또한 전체 전송로의 중간에 비선형 매질로 HNL-DSF(Highly nonlinear dispersion shifted fiber)를 갖는 광 위상 공액기를 두고, 광 위상 공액기를 중심으로 첫 번째 전송 구간에서의 평균 강도와 두 번째 전송 구간에서의 평균 강도를 같게 하는 PAIA(Path Averaged Intensity Approximation) 방식 의 MSSI 기법을 채택한 시스템이다. 채널별 보상 특성의 분석은 1 dB 기준 눈 열림 패널티(Eye Opening Penalty)를 이용했다. 색 분산과 비선형 효과에 의한 채널 신호 왜곡이 유도될 수 있는 장거리 WDM 시스템에 MSSI 기법을 적용하면 전송 거리와 전송 품질을 단일 채널 전송 이상으로 개선시킬 수 있고, 상호 위상 변조에 의한 왜곡의 보상 측면에서 MSSI 기법은 광섬유의 분산 계수가 비교적 큰 WDM 시스템에 더욱 유효하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The nuclide transport in the one-dimensional porous medium is considered as a first step in developing a decay chain transport in multidimensional inhomogeneous media. A method of solving conventional advection-dispersion equation with decay chain of arbitrary length by using the method of characteristics (MOC) is introduced. In specific cases where the advection are dominant rather than dispersion, the method is known to be useful : one of the most distinctive advantages in applying the model is that the MU minimizes the numerical dispersion, which is distinguished in such common numerical schemes as finite element method and finite difference method. The suggested model is considered to be effective through several illustrations for the case that decay chain of arbitrary length is involved during transport which is difficult to solve by standard numerical solutions if the medium becomes more complicated.

This study was to make powder by coprecipitation method and spray dispersion precipitation method in $(1-x)ZrO_2-xMgO$ system to improve sinterability. As the result the specific surface area of powder prepared by spray dispersion precipitation method and coprecipitation method was above $110m^2/g$ and $10-20m^2/g$ respectively. Spray dispersion precipitation method was more effective than coprecipitation method in powder preparation.
