This research presents the effect of anisotropy of the hollow disc mode under Brazilian test using PFC3D. The Brazilian tensile strength test was performed on the hollow disc specimens containing the bedding layers and then these specimens were numerically modeled by using the two dimensional discrete element code (PFC3D) to calibrate this computer code for the simulation of the cracks propagation and cracks coalescence in the anisotropic bedded rocks. The thickness of each layer within the specimens varied as 5 mm, 10 mm and 20 mm and the layers angles were changed as $0^{\circ}$, $25^{\circ}$, $50^{\circ}$, $75^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$. The diameter of internal hole was taken as 15 mm and the loading rate during the testing process kept as 0.016 mm/s. It has been shown that for layers angles below $25^{\circ}$ the tensile cracks produce in between the layers and extend toward the model boundary till interact and break the specimen. The failure process of the specimen may enhance as the layer angle increases so that the Brazilian tensile strength reaches to its minimum value when the bedding layers is between $50^{\circ}$ and $75^{\circ}$ but its value reaches to maximum at a layer angle of $90^{\circ}$. The number of tensile cracks decreases as the layers thickness increases and with increasing the layers angle, less layer mobilize in the failure process.

A new fabrication method is proposed to form the stacked polysilicon gate by nitridation in $N_2$ atmosphere using conventional LP-CVD system. Two step stacked layers with an amorphous layer on top of a polycrystalline layer as well as three step stacked layers with polycrystalline films were fabricated using the proposed method. SIMS profile showed that the proposed method would successfully create the nitrogen-rich layers between the stacked polysilicon layers, thus resulting in effective retardation of dopant diffusion. It was observed that the dopants in stacked films were piled-up at the interface. TEM image also showed clear distinction of stacked layers, their plane grain size and grain mismatch at interface layers. Therefore, the number of stacked polysilicon layers with different crystalline structures, interface position and crystal phase can be easily controlled to improve the device performance and reliability without any negative effects in nano-scale CMOSFETs.

자기 유도 헤드용 FeN 박막을 RF diode reactive 스퍼터 방법으로 Corning 7059 유리 기판 위에 증착하여 그 자기적 특성을 측정하였다. FeN 박막의 자기적 특성은 박막 두께, 가스 압력, 스퍼터 파워, $N_{2}$와 Ar의 유량비에 큰 영향을 받았다. 스퍼터 파워 800 W, 가스 압력 3 mT, 질소와 아르곤의 유량비 6.6 : 100, 단층 박막의 두께를 $1,000\;{\AA}$에서 $6,000\;{\AA}$으로 변화시키며 보자력의 변화를 측정 하였다. 두께가 $30\;{\AA}$인 $SiO_{2}$ 층을 사이층으로 하여 전체 박막 두께를 $6,000\;{\AA}$으로 고정하고 7층까지 증착한 시편의 보자력과 포화 자화값을 측정하였다. 단층 박막 두께에 따른 자화용이 방향의 보자력은 두께가 증가할수록 감소하였으며 $3,000\;{\AA}$ 이상에서는 거의 변화가 없었다. FeN 다층 박막의 경우 층수가 증가함에 따라 보자력은 감소하였다. X 선 회절 선폭으로 부터 결정립의 크기를 계산한 결과 층수가 증가할수록 결정립의 크기가 $200\;{\AA}$에서 $120\;{\AA}$으로 점차 감소하였다. 최소 보자 력은 4층 박막에서 자화 곤란 방향으로 0.4 Oe을 얻었다. 투자율 측정 결과 최대 상대 투자율은 2,900이었으며, 이들 박막의 차단 주파수는 100 MHz 이상이었다.

Heat transfer data are presented which describe characteristics of the transitional thermal boundary layers on the NACA0012 airfoil with upstream wakes. The wakes are generated periodically by circular cylindrical rods which rotate around the airfoil like a squirrel cage. The unsteady wakes simulate those produced by the upstream rotating blade rows in axial turbomachines. The pressure or suction side of the airfoil is also simulated according to the rotating direction of circular rods. As the Reynolds number and the number of rotating rods increase, the boundary layer transition occurs earlier and the Nusselt number increases. The difference of heat transfer coefficient is less on the pressure side than on the suction side. At a constant Reynolds number, the Nusselt number is larger and smaller, respectively, before and after transition as the Strouhal number increases.

An improved method has been developed for the computation of the section forces and stiffness in nonlinear finite element analysis of RC plane frames. The need for a new approach arises because the conventional technique may have a questionable level of efficiency if a large number of layers is specified and a questionable level of accuracy if a smaller number is used. The proposed technique is based on automatically dividing the section into zones of similar state of stress and tangent modulus and then numerically integrating within each zone to evaluate the sectional stiffness parameters and forces. In the new system, the size, number and location of the layers vary with the state of the strains in the cross section. The proposed method shows a significant improvement in time requirement and accuracy in comparison with the conventional layered approach. The computer program based on the new technique has been used successfully to predict the experimental load-deflection response of a RC frame and good agreement with test and other numerical results have been obtained.

As a potential alternative to flash memory, HfO₂/Al₂O₃ stacks appear to be a viable option as charge capture layers in charge trapping memories. The paper undertakes a review of HfO₂/Al₂O₃ stacks as charge trapping layers, with a focus on comparing the number, thickness, and post-deposition heat treatment and γ-ray and white x-ray treatment of such stacks. Compared to a single HfO₂ layer, the memory window of the 5-layered stack increased by 152.4% after O₂ annealing at ±12 V. The memory window enlarged with the increase in number of layers in the stack and the increase in the Al/Hf content in the stack. Furthermore, our comparison of the treatment of HfO₂/Al₂O₃ stacks with varying annealing temperatures revealed that an increased annealing temperature resulted in a wider storage window. The samples treated with O₂ and subjected to various γ radiation intensities displayed superior resistance. and the memory window increased to 12.6 V at ±16 V for 100 kGy radiation intensity compared to the untreated samples. It has also been established that increasing doses of white x-rays induced a greater number of deep defects. The optimization of stacking layers along with post-deposition treatment condition can play significant role in extending the memory window.

본 논문에서는 λ/4 반사층으로 이루어진 체적 탄성파 공진기의 두 가지 유형을 등가회로를 이용하여 이론적으로 분석하고 두 유형의 차이점을 비교 논의하였다. λ/2 모드는 상, 하부전극이 공기와 접하는 이상적인 공진기와 λ/4 모드는 상부전극은 공기와 접하고 하부전극 아래는 완전히 막혀 있는 이상적인 공진기와 비교하여 반사층이 공진특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 압전층으로는 ZnO 를 전극층으로는 Al 을 기판층은 Si 을 사용하였다. Mason 등가회로를 ABCD 파라미터를 추출할 수 있는 단순화된 등가회로로 변환하여 입력임피던스를 구하였다. 반사층의 두께 변화에 의한 공진주파수의 변화와 반사층의 기계적 Q 에 따른 전기적 Q 의 변화를 통해 하부전극 바로 아래의 반사층의 변화률이 제일 큼을 알 수 있었다. 반사층의 탄성 임피던스비가 증가함에 따라 Q 의 포화에 필요한 반사층의 수가 감소하였고 동일한 반사층 조건에서 λ/2 모드의 전기적 Q 가 λ/4 모드의 전기적 Q 보다 다소 크다는 사실을 확인하였다. 전기기계결합계수는 반사층수에 독립적이었고 반사층의 탄성 임피던스비가 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 두 모드 모두 전기기계결합계수는 반사층에 탄성파 에너지의 존재로 인하여 이상적인 공진기보다 낮고 동일한 반사층 조건에서 λ/2 모드가 λ/4 모드보다 큼을 확인하였다. Ladder 필터 특성에는 반사층수가 증가할수록 삽입손실은 감소하지만 대역폭에는 큰 변화가 없었고 반사층의 탄성임피던스비가 높을수록 동일한 반사층수에서 삽입손실은 감소하였고 대역폭은 넓어졌다. 분석한 모든 특성으로 닥 때 λ/2 모드가 λ/4 모드보다 다소 우수하였다.

The process of encapsulating cobalt nanoparticles using a graphene layer is mainly direct pyrolysis. The encapsulation structure of hybrids prepared in this way improves the catalyst stability, which greatly reduces the leaching of non-metals and prevents metal nanoparticles from growing beyond a certain size. In this study, cobalt particles surrounded by graphene layers were formed by increasing the temperature in a transmission electron microscope, and they were analyzed using scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). Synthesized cobalt hydroxide nanosheets were used to obtain cobalt particles using an in-situ heating holder inside a TEM column. The cobalt nanoparticles are surrounded by layers of graphene, and the number of layers increases as the temperature increases. The interlayer spacing of the graphene layers was also investigated using atomic imaging. The success achieved in the encapsulation of metallic nanoparticles in graphene layers paves the way for the design of highly active and reusable heterogeneous catalysts for more challenging molecules.

This paper proposes an image classification algorithm that transforms the number of convolution layers in the residual block of ResNet, CNN's representative method. The proposed method modified the structure of 34/50 layer of ResNet structure. First, we analyzed the performance of small and many convolution layers for the structure consisting of only shortcut and 3 × 3 convolution layers for 34 and 50 layers. And then the performance was analyzed in the case of small and many cases of convolutional layers for the bottleneck structure of 50 layers. By applying the results, the best classification method in the residual block was applied to construct a 34-layer simple structure and a 50-layer bottleneck image classification model. To evaluate the performance of the proposed image classification model, the results were analyzed by applying to the cifar10 dataset. The proposed 34-layer simple structure and 50-layer bottleneck showed improved performance over the ResNet-110 and Densnet-40 models.

The current study investigated experimentally the effectiveness of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) in confining concrete cylinders after being subjected to high temperature. Parameters examined were: (a) the exposing temperatures (20, 100, 200, 400 600 and 700℃) and (b) the number of CFRP layers (1 and 3 layers). A uniaxial compressive testing was carried out on 36 concrete cylinders with dimensions of 150 mm×300 mm. The results obtained show that the compressive strength reduced with the increased of temperature compared to that measured at 20℃. In particular, the reduction in the compressive strength was more observed when the temperature exceeded 400℃. Further, the concrete cylinders confined with one and three layers of CFRP significantly increased the compressive strength compared to the counterpart unconfined specimen tested at the same temperature. Also, the average percentages of the increase in the compressive strength were approximately 112% and 158% when applying 1 and 3 layers of CFRP, respectively, compared to the counterpart unstrengthened specimen tested at the same temperature.
