  • This paper proposes a numerical method based on domain decomposition to find approximate solutions for one-dimensional convection-diffusion equations with Neumann boundary conditions. First, the equations are transformed into convection-diffusion equations with Dirichlet conditions. Second, the author introduces the Prediction/Correction Domain Decomposition (PCDD) method and estimates errors for the interface prediction scheme, interior scheme, and correction scheme using known error estimations. Finally, the author compares the PCDD algorithm with the fully explicit scheme (FES) and the fully implicit scheme (FIS) using three examples. In comparison to FES and FIS, the proposed PCDD algorithm demonstrates good results.

  • We developed micro power generation system using piezoelectric materials. In our system, the ambient vibrating energy is converting to electric energy by deflection of piezoelectric beams. The system consists of energy generating parts, converting enhancement parts, electric regulation and charging parts, and interface with small-energy-consuming mobile devices. The geometry of piezoelectric beams, the source of vibrating energy, and the electric load of target application determine the characteristics of generating electric power, such as impedance, voltage, current and power density. Therefore, we made a model for analysis of generating power with given information such as piezoelectric materials, geometry, vibration type, and mass. With this model, we can calculate capacitance of piezoelectric beams, generating voltage, current, and power. To obtain maximum energy transfer efficiency, we approached this study in the view of material, electrical, and mechanical engineering

  • Piezoelectric Transformer (PT) was emerged in device and material industry. PT has some advantages such as low profile and mechanical energy transfer with little electromagnetic interface (EMI). But, It is known that the maximum PT efficiency can be obtained when it operates near the resonant frequency of the PT. Also PT's resonant frequency moves according to the load conditions Therefore, As the operating frequency moves further from the resonant frequency, the PT efficiency decreases dramatically due to the increase of the circulating current. This paper proposes analyzes modeling of PT convert and propose a guide-line to adaptive control

  • We have studied the effect of $TiO_2$ layer deposited by RF magnetron sputtering which is used as an ultra thin hole-injection buffer layer in organic light-emitting diode (OLED). The $TiO_2$ thin film layer prevents metallic ions from diffusing from the ITO layer to the organic layers and improves the balance of hole and electron injections and the interface characteristics between the electrode and the organic layer. With 2 nm thickness of $TiO_2$, the quantum efficiency was improved by 45 % compared to the device fabricated without the $TiO_2$ layer.

  • This reserch was to develop database software in order to handle a lot of clinical nursing data with nursing diagnoses, related factors, defining characteristics, nursing interventions, nursing activities and nursing outcomes. MS Access2000 and SQL was selected to use a general purpose database logic with an efficiency. MS Visual Basic 6.0 was used to construct the circumstance of Graphic User Interface. The Linkage Database of abdominal surgery patients was constructed from the clinical data and questionnaire. This database system could add related factors, defining characteristics, nursing activities in the database and analyze the statistical results through Access query. In the final stage, end-users satisfaction analysis using 5 points Likert scale was dong with the response of using the database system. The accuracy/trustworthiness of the database system was verified with the highest average scores as 4.42 and also, the efficiency as 4.21, user friendly function as 4.1.

  • An introduction to the first CCD camera system in Bohyunsan Optica1 Astronomy Observatory(CCD#l) is presented. The CCD camera adopts modular dewar design of IfA(Institute for Astronomy at Hawaii University) and SDSU(San Diego State University) general purpose CCD controller. The user interface is based on IfA design of easy-to-use QUI program running on the NeXT workstation. The characteristics of the CCD#l including Gain, Charge Transfer Efficiency, rms Read-Out Noise, Linearity and Dynamic range is tested and discussed. The CCD#l shows 6.4 electrons RON and gain of 3.49 electrons per ADU, and the optimization resulted in about 27 seconds readout time guaranteeing charge transfer efficiency of 0.99999 for both direction. Linearity test shows that non-linear coefficient is $6{\times}10^{-7}$ in the range of 0 to 30,000 ADU.

  • In this paper, the automatic precision measurement of RF voltage has been done using the power and impedance standards [1] in the frequency range of 50 to 1000 MHz. A coaxial microcalorimeter and an automatic network analyzer were used for the determination of the RF-DC differences and the total uncertainty is about 1.0 %. A HP computer, a commodore computer and IEEE-488 interface bus were used for measuring the effective efficiency of thermistor mount and the RF-DC difference of thermal voltage converter, All processes of measurement were accomplished by self-developed program automatically.

  • Actual system apparatuses are necessary in order to verify the efficiency and stability of photovoltaic(PV) generation systems considering the size of solar panel, the sort of converter type, and the load conditions and so on. Moreover, it is hardly possible to compare a certain MPPT control scheme with others under the exactly same weather and load conditions as well. For the purpose of solving above mentioned difficulties in a laboratory basis, a transient simulation of PV generation system using real field weather conditions is indispensable. A straightforward simulation scheme with cost effective hardware structures under real weather conditions is proposed in this paper using EMTDC type of transient analysis simulators. Firstly, a solar cell has been modeled with VI characteristic equations, and then the real field data of weather conditions are interfaced to the EMTDC through Fortran program interface method. As a result, the stability and the efficiency analysis of PV generation systems according to various hardware structures and MPPT controls are easily possible under the exactly same weather conditions.

  • The quantum efficiency vs. wavelength curves with different reducing treatments for the 99.99% and 98.5% $TiO_2$ ceramic electrodes have been analyzed according to the Schottky barrier model of the semiconductor-elect-rolyte interface, The model allows the main physical parameters governing the photoelectrochemical properties of the semicon-ductor to be determined. According to these data the impurity ions as three valence state ($Fe^{3+})$ in the $TiO_2$ raw materials have great influence on the photoresponse and the $TiO_2$ ceramic electrodes show much lower quantum efficiency than the $TiO_2$ single crystal due to existence of the recombination centers.

  • Understanding and optimizing the energy consumption of wireless devices is critical to maximize the network lifetime and to provide guidelines for the design of new protocols and interfaces. In this work, we first provide an accurate analysis of the energy performance of an IEEE 802.11 WLAN, and then we derive the configuration to optimize it. We further analyze the impact of the energy configuration of the stations on the throughput performance, and we discuss under which circumstances throughput and energy efficiency can be both jointly maximized and where they constitute different challenges. Our findings are that, although an energy-optimized configuration typically yields gains in terms of throughput as compared against the default configuration, it comes with a reduction in performance as compared against the maximum-bandwidth configuration, a reduction that depends on the energy parameters of the wireless interface.
