Plastic bonded explosive(PBX) is mainly composed of the nitramine-ploymer compositions. PBX is characterized by high velocity and pressure of detonation, low vulnerability and good thermal stability. Many important applications of PBX require the good adhesion between nitramine crystals and the binder. For PBXs as well as propellants, where good mechanical properties are of great importance, dewetting therefore must be prevented by strong adhesion between filler-binder. Adhesion depends on surface characteristics of filler and binder. In order to design for better adhesion, an understanding of the surface properties of explosive and binder is required. The surface free energies are calculated from contact angle values by the method of Kaelble. Critical surface tension of solids are calculated by Zisman plot. Critical surface tension is a useful parameter for characterizing the wettability of solid surface. In this study, HMX and 3 kinds of copolymers are selected, since they are widely used in many plastic bonded explosives. The technical objective of this investigation is to predict the interaction between filler and binder from their surface free energies.

This paper describes the stacking effect for Ceramic Column Grid Array(CCGA) packages used for satellites. Reflow Soldering Process suitable for CCGA package with back structure was set as the process development goal to meet European Cooperation for Space Standardization(ECSS) standard. After analyzing the stacking effect according to the type of CCGA, it is verified by applying it to the CCGA Reflow Soldering Process. In order to confirm the validity of the staking effect analyzed in terms of vibration and thermal characteristics, it is verified through actual specimen production. It analyzes the cause of crack occurrence in the CCGA package and estimates the crack generation point using previously acquired inspection data.

Let ${\rho}(A)$ and ${\rho}(B)$ denote the orders of entire functions $A(z)$ and $B(z)$ respectively. Suppose that ${\rho}(A)$ > 1 and 0 < ${\rho}(B){\leq}\frac{1}{2}$, and that ${\rho}$(A) is not an integer. Then it is shown that every nonconstant solution $f$ of $f^{{\prime}{\prime}}+A(z)f^{\prime}+B(z)f=0$ is of infinite order if all the zeros of $A(z)$ lie in a certain angular sector depending on its genus. In addition, we investigate some growth properties of $A(z)$.

The pulse compression technique using Linear FM signal is commonly used for improving the performance of both the detection range and range resolution in radar system. In general, the compressed LFM waveform has relatively large sidelobe level which may prevent a target from being detected when strong jammer or clutter signal is near the target signal. In this paper, we propose a new weighting method which uses the square-root weight to suppress the sidelobe level. Typical applications are missile seekers and tracking radar systems where target tracking range is available prior to the signal processing. By computer simulation, we show that the performance of the proposed method is better than that of the conventional weighting methods in terms of sidelobe suppression.

In this paper, we propose how to efficiently apply IP and TDL(Tactical Datalink) protocol to the Link-K network for using their applications on the host system. We classify 3 kinds of communication method between IP network and TDL network. We explain the concepts of Like-to-Like communication (Link-K over IP, IP over Link-K) and Any-to-Any communication. We describe the characteristics and the implementation range of tactical datalink processor for each communication method.

A hyperspectral imaging spectrometer has shown significant advantages in performance over other existing ones for remote sensing applications. It can collect hundreds of narrow, adjacent spectral bands for each image, which provides a wealth of information on unique spectral characteristics of objects. We have developed a compact hyperspectral imaging system that successively shows high spatial and spectral resolutions and fast data processing performance. In this paper, we present an overview of the hyperspectral imaging system including the strucure of geometrical optics and several image processing schemes such as wavelength calibration and noise reduction for image data on Visible and Near-Infrared(VNIR) and Shortwave-Infrared(SWIR) band.

This paper presents an estimation technique of the equivalent circuit parameters for an underwater acoustic piezoelectric transducer from the measured impedance. Estimated equivalent circuit can be used for the design of the impedance matching network of the sonar transmitter. A fitness function is proposed to minimize the error between the calculated impedance of the equivalent circuit and the measured impedance of the transducer. The equivalent circuit parameters are estimated by using the fitness function and the PSO(Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by the applications to a sandwich-type transducer and a dummy load. In addition, the impedance matching network is also designed by using the estimated equivalent circuit model.

For the major scientific laboratories around the world, nanotechnology has been one of the key scientific issues since the end of the last millenium. The basic materials of this newly emerging technology are nanoparticles, which, in fact, have been used for many centuries. However, the physical properties of the particles were understood quite recently. In order to apply the new properties we have to protect and functionalize the surfaces of the particles, since without protection of the surfaces, nanoparticles grow themselves due to Ostwald Ripening. In this review, the author describes recent technical progress in the field of fuctionalization of various nanoparticles and their applications, so that readers can grasp the overall picture of this new technological field.

A compact broadband active composite dipole antenna for direction finding system at the V/UHF-band is presented. It uses the composite structure which improves the antenna gain and the active circuit for broadband operation. This type of antenna has a high gain more than that of one dipole antenna within limited length(1m). The basic design and performance of both antenna structure and integrated active circuit are presented.
