This study has presented the analysis of breakdown voltage for a double-gate metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) based on the doping distribution of the Gaussian function. The double-gate MOSFET is a next generation transistor that shrinks the short channel effects of the nano-scaled CMOSFET. The degradation of breakdown voltage is a highly important short channel effect with threshold voltage roll-off and an increase in subthreshold swings. The analytical potential distribution derived from Poisson's equation and the Fulop's avalanche breakdown condition have been used to calculate the breakdown voltage of a double-gate MOSFET for the shape of the Gaussian doping distribution. This analytical potential model is in good agreement with the numerical model. Using this model, the breakdown voltage has been analyzed for channel length and doping concentration with parameters such as projected range and standard projected deviation of Gaussian function. As a result, since the breakdown voltage is greatly changed for the shape of the Gaussian function, the channel doping distribution of a double-gate MOSFET has to be carefully designed.

In this paper, the behavior of electron swarm parameters and energy distribution function of the discharge under high E/N condition in e$^{-10}$ -CF$_{4}$ gas have been analysed over the E/N range from 1-300(Td) by the MCS and BEq methods using set of electron collision cross section determined by the authors. The swarm parameters and energy distribution function have been calculated for the pulsed Townsend, steady-state Townsend and Time of Flight methods. The results gained that the value of electron swarm parameters such as the electron drift velocity, the electron ionization and attachment coefficients and longitudinal diffusion coefficients in agreement with the experimental and theoretical data for a range of E/N. The electron energy distribution function has been explained and analysed in e$^{-10}$ -CF$_{4}$ at E/N : 5, 10, 100, 200, 300(Td) for a case of the equilibrium region in the mean electron energy and respective set of electron collision cross sections. The validity of the results has been confirmed by TOF and SST methods.

The temperature distribution of the reactor pool under natural circulation induced by the RVACS operation was experimentally studied. According to the Bo' based similarity law, which could reproduce the temperature distribution of the working fluid under natural circulation, SINCRO-2D facility was designed based on the PGSFR. It was reduced to 1 : 25 in length scale, having water as a simulant of the sodium, which is the original working fluid. In general, temperature was stratified, however, effect of the natural circulation flow could be observed by the entrainment of the stratified temperature. Relative cooling contribution of the upper plenum (narrow gap) and lower plenum was approximately 0.2 and 0.8, respectively. In the range of decay heat from 0.2% to 1.0%, only the magnitude of the temperature was changed, while the normalized temperature maintained. Boundary temperature distribution change made a global temperature offset of the pool, without a significant local change. Therefore, the decay heat and cooling boundary condition had no significant effect on temperature distribution characteristics of the pool within the given range of the decay heat and boundary temperature distribution.

Correlations between horizontal distributions of bamboos (Bambusaceae) in the Korean peninsula and environmental factors were studied using taxanomic and geographical literatures, both old and current. The vertical distributions of bamboos on Mt. Chiri were also studied, and environmental factors limiting horizontal and vertical distributions were compared. There are 18 species of bamboos (belonging to 5 genera) distributed in the Korean peninsula. The distributional range of each genus were distinct, although overlapped. Northern limit of bamboos of any species was marked by the line connecting Paikryung Island (124。40'E, 38。00'N), Mt. Changsoo, Mt. Myungji, Mt. Myohyung and Myungchum (129。40'E, 41。10'N). The optimum range of bamboos was concluded to be restricted to several southern province, with annual precipitation over 1,200 mm. The limiting factors on the distribution were inferred to be low temperature and duration of it. Mean daily minimum temperature of January and the number of days with daily mean temperatures below zero during January showed close associations with the distributional range, and an environmental factors favouring the distributrion of bamboos appeared to be vicinity of warm sea current, deep and extended snow acculation and southern exposure. The vertical distribution of bamboos on Mt. Chiri was limited by low temperature, unfavorable topographic and edaphic conditions caused by steep slope. Difference in the vertical limits between SE and NW slopes are caused by the differences in temperature and precipitation between the slopes. Bamboos were more abundant in valleys than on the ridge, apparently because the deeper snow in the valleys protected the plants from low temperature, heavy winter winds and desiccation.

In this paper, a systematic design approach for a three shaft hydromechanical transmission(HMT) system is proposed by considering the power characteristics and speed ratio range. Using network analysis, possible configurations of the 3 shaft HMT are analyzed and it is found that the influence of HSU stroke on the power distribution of the HMT can be investigated by the network analysis. In addition, design methods are presented from the viewpoint of (1) power distribution and (2) speed ratio range. From the power distribution and the speed ratio range, a HMT configuration can be constructed, which minimizes the power circulation and provides the desired speed ranges. Based on the 3 shaft HMT analyses and the proposed design approach, a 3 shaft HMT is designed which provides 4 speeds in forward and 1 speed in reverse while keeping the power circulation less than 150% of the input power. It is expected that the design method suggested in this study can be used in a systematic design of the 3 shaft HMT.

PURPOSE: This study intended to verify whether there was actual correlation between weight-bearing asymmetry and a limitation in hip joint rotation range in patients with low back pain. METHODS: Thirty five low back pain patients voluntarily participated this study. For each participant, hip joint medial rotation symmetry rate and the weight-bearing symmetry rate were calculated. The correlation between the two variables was investigated. RESULTS: A decrease in the left hip joint medial rotation range of motion (ROM) was observed more often than a reduction in the right hip joint medial rotation ROM. However, similar number between right and left side was observed in ground reaction force more weighted. The coefficient between the passive hip joint medial rotation symmetry rate and the weight loading symmetry ratio was -0.19 (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The present study demonstrated a weak correlation between the hip joint medial rotation ROM and the weight distribution of both feet. Such result suggests that careful evaluation by separating each element is needed in treating patients with low back pain. Future research should take into account asymmetric alignment and abnormal movement in different joints of the body as well as asymmetry in the bilateral hip joint rotation and the unilateral weight supporting posture.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the failure characteristics of a total of 90 parts of tractor driveline, and to predict their average annual demands required to perform the after-sales service. The failure characteristics such as failure mode, mean time between failures, characteristic life and reliability were analyzed using the data collected through the experienced mechanics at the part centers of the tractor manufacturers. The analysis was based on the assumption that the failure distribution follows the Weibull distribution. The average annual demands were also predicted for the replacement parts using the mean time between failures and the renewal theory based on the Weibull distribution. The results of the study revealed that the driveline parts failure was mostly from wearout and their average characteristic life is about 1.760 hours. The estimated mean time between failures was in a range of 670∼3,740 hours and reliability in a range of 40∼60％. The annual replacement demands were in a range of 4∼45 for a service of 100 tractors.

The aerosol number concentration have measured with an aerodynamic particle sizer spectrometer(APS) at Gosan site, which is known as background area in Korea, from January to September 2011. The temporal variation and the size distribution of aerosol number concentration have been investigated. The entire averaged aerosol number concentration in the size range 0.25~32.0 ${\mu}m$ is about 252 particles/$cm^3$. The number concentration in small size ranges(${\leq}0.5{\mu}m$) are very higher than those in large size ranges, such as, the number concentration in range of larger than 6.5 ${\mu}m$ are almost zero particles/$cm^3$. The contributions of the number concentration to PM10 and/or PM2.5 are about 34%, 20.1% and 20.4% in the size range 0.25~0.28 ${\mu}m$, 0.28~0.30 ${\mu}m$ and 0.30~0.35 ${\mu}m$, respectively, however, the contributions are below 1% in range of larger than 0.58 ${\mu}m$. The monthly variations in the number concentration in smaller size range(<1.0 ${\mu}m$) are evidently different from the variations in range of larger than 1.0 ${\mu}m$, but the variations are appeared similar patterns in smaller size range(<1.0 ${\mu}m$), also the variations in range of larger than 1.0 ${\mu}m$ are similar too. The diurnal variations in the number concentration for smaller particle(<1.0 ${\mu}m$) are not much, but the variations for larger particle are very evident. Size-fractioned aerosol number concentrations are dramatically decreased with increased particle size. The monthly differences in the size-fractioned number concentrations for smaller size range(<0.7 ${\mu}m$) are not observed, however, the remarkable monthly differences are observed for larger size than 0.7 ${\mu}m$.

본 논문에서는 iCAM06의 HDR (High Dynamic Range) 영상 렌더링을 위한 적응적 표준 편차를 이용한 자동레인지 고속 양방향 필터 (auto-range fast bilateral filter, FBF)를 제안한다. 다양한 노출 시간으로 촬영한 여러영상들은 전체 다이나믹 레인지를 포함한 한 장의 HDR 영상으로 만들어진다. HDR 영상 렌더링의 대표적인 알고리즘은 iCAM06이며, 이는 국부 백색 적응 (local white point adaptation), 색 순응 (color adaptation), 및 영상 처리 변환 (image processing transformation, IPT) 같은 iCAM 구조를 기초로 한다. iCAM06의 고속 양방향 필터는 레인지 필터에서 고정 표준 편차를 사용한다. 이는 넓고 낮은 분포를 가지는 고 자극치 영역에서 불필요한 고속 양방향 필터 계산의 원인이 된다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 XYZ 각 자극치 영상을 경계값에 의해 저 자극치 영상 및 고 자극치 영상으로 나눈 후, 각 자극치 영역에 대하여 히스토그램 분포에 기초한 가변 표준 편차를 이용한다. 실험 결과에서 제안한 방법이 기존의 고속 양방향 필터보다 계산 속도가 개선되었음을 확인하였다.

영상을 출력하는 디스플레이 기술의 발달로 인하여 영상의 해상도와 품질이 나날이 증가하고 있다. 이러한 디스플레이 기술의 발달에 맞추어, 기존의 영상들을 더 높은 해상도와 품질로 변환하여 디스플레이 할 수 있는 기술에 대한 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 연구 결과는 이미지 신호 처리 장치에 포함되기 때문에 하드웨어 구현이 필수적으로 요구된다. 본 논문에서는, 영상의 휘도 분포를 이용한 LDR(Low Dynamic Range) 영상의 실시간 HDR(High Dynamic Range) 변환 하드웨어 구현을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 휘도 분포의 히스토그램을 이용하여 영상의 특징을 추출하고, 이를 바탕으로 하여 휘도와 색상을 확장한다. 또한, 제안한 알고리즘을 하드웨어 IP(Intellectual Property)로 설계하여 그 성능을 검증하였을 때, 최대 동작 주파수 265.46MHz로 4K DCI(Digital Cinema Image) 영상에 대하여 30fps로 동작하여 4K 표준에 대응할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
