본 연구는 switching mode 의 Power NMOSFET failure mode 에 관하여 분석하고 원인을 규명하였다. 분석된 power NMOSFET은 30V급이며, vender A의 상용화 제품이다. 발생한 failure mode는 power switch 회로에서 특정 ID 를 detect 하지 못하는 mode 였다. 측정결과 source voltage 가 저하되었으며, power NMOSFET DC 동작특성 분석 결과 Vgs 변화에 따라 Id 가 저하되었다. Fail 된 power MOSFET 특성값 reference는 동일 LOT의 양품을 선정하였다. De-cap후 Inversion 과 Accumulation mode 별로 Photoemission spectrum analyzer(PSA) 분석 방법을 적용하였다. 결과 accumulation mode 에서 intensity가 감소하였으며, forward diode mode에서 국소적으로 변화하는 영역이 검출되었다. SEM 분석결과 gate metal 과 source metal 의 micro-contact 이 이루어져 있었다. 이 경우 gate metal 과 source metal 사이 close loop 를 형성하여 gate charge량을 변화시켜 power NMOSFET의 출력을 저하하는 failure mode가 발생됨을 분석할 수 있었다.

A consecutive k out of n failure lines with sink-source parts is a system of components in sequence such that the system fails whether some k consecutive components are all fail. Some object, be it a flow, is to be relayed from a source to a sink through a sequence of intermediate stations(components). Now care should be taken as to if the source and the sink are also considered components of the systems, i. e. , whether they serve the same function as the intermediate components (stations). Such systems are different from ordinary consecutive k- out of n failure lines by adding the on source and sink pole[6]. The main properties of the reliability by the optimal redundancy of consecutive k out of n failure lines are presented under this modification.

Route failure is mainly caused by mobility of mobile host in ad hoc networks. Route failure, which may lead to sudden packet losses and delays, is losing the route from source to destination. In this situation, TCP assumes that congestion has occurred within the network and also initiates the congestion control procedures. Congestion control algorithm provides the means for the source to deal with lost packets. TCP performance in ad hoc environments will be degraded as TCP source cannot distinguish congestion from route failure. In this paper, we propose TCP-P as pre-detection approach to deal with route failure. TCP-P freezes TCP through pre-detection of route failure. Route failure information of the proposed mechanism is obtained not by routing protocol but by MAC protocol. The intermediated node, obtaining route failure information by its MAC layer, relays the information to TCP source and lets TCP source stop the congestion control algorithm. Results reveal that TCP-P responding with proactive manner outperforms other approaches in terms of communication throughput under the presence of node mobility.

The separation of control plane and data plane in Software Defined Network (SDN) makes it flexible to control the network behavior, while also causes some inconveniences to the link failure recovery due to the delay between fail point and the controller. To avoid delay and packet loss, pre-defined backup paths are used to reroute the disrupted flows when failure occurs. However, it may introduce large overhead to build and maintain these backup paths and is hard to dynamically construct backup paths according to the network status so as to avoid congestion during rerouting process. In order to realize congestion aware fast link failure recovery, this paper proposes a novel method which installs multi backup paths for every link via source routing and per-hop-tags and spread flows into different paths at fail point to avoid congestion. We carry out experiments and simulations to evaluate the performance of the method and the results demonstrate that our method can achieve congestion aware fast link failure recovery in SDN with a very low overhead.

Stabilization of electric power is the most important thing is such place as computing center having business critical equipment. However, ability to cope with electrical quality shift and power failure is very weak from UPS output side to load in those electricity system, though UPS is generally used for power stabilization. this problem can be solved by duplication of power source using newly configured UPS and small sized transfer switch even in case of UPS failure.

The derived expressions and computations of the system reliability in the consecutive k out of n failure structure with sink-source pole are discussed and a new simplified formulation to compute the reliability of consecutive k out of $n^*$ failure system is presented, and the relations with system reliability when the number of first consecutive falied components from source is greater than k are presented in this paper. The new simplified formulation is illustrated in the numerical experiments.

As the power industry moves towards open competition, there has been a call for methodology to evaluate power system reliability by using composite interruption cost. This paper presents algorithms to evaluate the interruption cost of distribution power systems by taking into consideration the failure source and the composite customer interruption cost. From the consumer's standpoint, the composite customer interruption cost is considered as the most valuable index to estimate the reliability of a power distribution system. This paper presents new algorithms that take into account the load by customer type and failure probability by distribution facilities while calculating the amount of unserved energy by customer type. Finally, evaluation results of unserved energy and system interruption cost based on composite customer interruption cost are shown in detail.

The scanning laser source (SLS) technique has been proposed recently as an effective way to investigate small surface-breaking defects, By monitoring the amplitude and frequency changes of the ultrasound generated as the SLS scans over a defect, the SLS technique has provided enhanced signal-to-noise performance compared to the traditional pitch-catch or pulse-echo ultrasonic methods, An extension of the SLS approach to map defects in microdevices is proposed by bringing both the generator and the receiver to the near-field scattering region of the defects, To facilitate near-field ultrasound measurement, silicon microcantilever probes are fabricated using microfabrication technique and their acoustical characteristics are investigated, Then, both the laser-generated ultrasonic source and the microcantilever probe are used to monitor near-field scattering by a surface-breaking defect.

Rockburst is a sudden and violent failure of rock. During the failure process, excess energy is liberated as seismic energy, which in turn causes the surrounding rock mass to vibrate. The level of the ground vibration can reach a magnitude of over 4.5 in the Richter local scale. Thus, a rockburst can cause not only injury to persons, but also damage to both underground workings and surface structures. In this paper the source mechanism of rockburst is analyzed based mainly on the two reports of the Canadian Rockburst Research Program (CRRP). A simplified LS-DYNA modeling is also performed to identify the tensile failure patterns occurring in the remaining rock mass right after blasting in mine stope. The configuration of the simplified model will probably be useful in small-scale laboratory tests for investigating the source mechanism of rockburst.

It was well recognized that the damages associated mainly with the aging of civil infrastructures were one of very serious problems for assurance of safety and reliability. Recently carbon fiber sheet(CFS) has been widely used for reinforcement and rehabilitation of damaged concrete beam. However, the fundamental mechanism of load transfer and its load-resistant for carbon fiber sheet reinforced concrete are not fully understood. In this study, three point bending test has been carried out to understand the damage progress and the micro-failure mechanism of CFS reinforced mortars. For this purpose, four different types of specimens are used, that is, mortar, steel bar reinforced mortar, CFS reinforced mortar, and steel bar and CFS reinforced morter. Acoustic Emission(AE) technique was used to evaluate the characteristics of damage progress and the failure mechanism of specimens. in addition, two-dimensional AE source location was also performed to monitor crack initiation and propagation processes for these specimens.
