Since many blood pressure pulse analyzer made to measurement of a pulse wave in quantitative way has been started, some sorts of pressure sensors are being developed. The result could differ and this cause either type of sensor or module shape, when pulse wave is measured. In this paper, calculate and compare the pressure sensor's stress distribution according to thickness of PDMS coating and existence of guide through Finite Element Method. As a result, the center of pressure sensor's stress increase as much as 24% as it is reduced as much as 0.3 mm that the PDMS coating thichness of pulse diagnostic sensor module, on the other hand the surrouding censor of center sensor's stress is reduced as much as 4.9%, and transmissive proportion of stress is small as little as 2.7%, When coating has guide.

Tin nanoparticles were synthesized at room temperature by a compulsive reduction reaction using tin(II) acetate and tin(II) chloride precursors. When an identical amount (0.015 g) of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) was added, it was concluded that the probability of abnormally big particles forming increased with an increase in PVP molecular weight, resulting in the wide distribution of Sn nanoparticles. Differential scanning calorimetry measurements were carried out using diethylene glycol solution containing synthesized tin nanoparticles. When the population of specific particles with sizes below 35 nm was adequate, the melting point depression peaks of tin nanoparticles corresponding to the specific size were observed besides an evaporation endothermic peak of DEG during the first heating. Because DEG was evaporated and tin nanoparticles in contact became molten and coarsened during the first heating, a melting peak of bulk tin was only observed at $232^{\circ}C$ during the second heating.

Porous silicon film is fabricated by electrochemical etching in a chemical mixture of HF and ethanol. Effects of Si type, Si resistivity, ultrasonic frequency, current density and etching time on surface morphology of PS film were studied. Electrochemical etching in ultrasonic bath promotes the uniformity of porous layer of Si. Frequency of ultrasonic was increased from 40 kHz to 130 kHz to obtain uniform pores on the Si surface. When current density was higher, the sizes of pores were larger. The new etching cell using back contact metal and current shield help to overcome nonhomogeneity and current crowding effect, and then leads to fabricate uniform pores on the Si surface. The distribution of pore size shows no notable tendency with etching time.

This paper shows quantitative reliability evaluations of a Bluetooth module through extending previous qualitative methods limited to structure reliability tests and solder joint reliability tests for Bluetooth modules. Accelerated Life Testing (ALT) of the modules using temperature difference in temperature cycling as an accelerated stress was conducted for quantitative reliability evaluation under field environment conditions. Lifetime distribution parameters were estimated using the failure times obtained through the ALT, and then Coffin-Manson model was implemented. Results of the ALT showed that the failure mode of the modules was open and the failure mechanisms are both crack and delamination. The ALT reproduced the failure mode and mechanisms of failed Bluetooth modules collected from the field. Further, a quantitative reliability evaluation method with respect to various temperature differences in temperature cycling was proposed in this paper. $B_{10}$ lifetime of the module for the temperature difference $70^{\circ}C$ using the proposed method would be estimated as about 4 years.

We reported the methodology for the shear test which is one of the evaluation procedure for mechanical reliability of flip-chip package. The shear speed and the tip height are found to be two significant experimental parameters in the shear test. We investigated how these two parameters have an influence on the results, the shear strength and failure mode. In order to prove these experimental inconsistency, simulation using finite element analysis was also conducted to calculate the shear strength and to figure out the distribution of plastic energy inside of the solder ball. The shear strength decreased while the tip height increased or the shear speed decreased. A variation in shear strength due to inconsistent shear conditions made confusion on analyzing experimental results. As a result, it was strongly needed to standardize the shear test method.

For changes in the distribution structure these days, consumer demand is moving rapidly from offline to online. The consumers' mentality to purchase products conveniently is reflected in this phenomenon. Also for agricultural products, safety to protect contents, brand and design which can provide credibility to consumers are recognized as most important than ever. Especially, strawberry is thin-skinned so that the quality of product may deteriorate even with weak impact and shaking, so it is significantly influenced by the structural packaging or material. Also, strawberry is frequently distributed through direct trading, it is the reality that the package design of strawberry is less competitive than that of other products due to inadequate environments of commercial farms. That is, the demand of strawberry increases everyday but the strawberry package cannot fulfill the needs of producers and consumers. In order to reinforce competitiveness in strawberry sales, it is urgent to carry out fundamental studies regarding the development of package. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to supplement and improve issues arising from the usage of current strawberry package. Through the analysis of strawberry package elements (shape, material, design) and understand the points of improvement sought by producers and consumers through IPA MAP (importance, satisfaction level) analysis.

A fermented vegetable kimchi swells in package bags often during distribution to comsumer after storage. The swelling has been prohibited by packaging the kimchi in a modified LDPE film that has been made by filling a ceramic powders disinfecting to lactic acid bacteria and growth enhancing to vegetables. The film exhibited higher permeability to carbon dioxide and ethylene than LDPE film. The tastes of kimchi in the film sustained its optical quality longer than that in LDPE film at room temperature.

In this study, we investigated the use of Gondre, a special product from Gangwon-do, as an ingredient in Kimchi. Kimchi added with Gondre was manufactured for further analysis. The antioxidative properties of Kimchi with uncooked Gondre were found to be 1.2 times higher than those of Kimchi with boiled Gondre, suggesting that uncooked Gondre is the preferred additive. To assess the effect of Gondre over a 30-day period at 5℃, Kimchi was prepared with Gondre at mixed ratios of 20%, 40%, and 50% (w/w). No significant effects of Gondre on pH, titrated acidity, or microorganism growth were observed. However, sensory evaluation results indicated that Kimchi with 20% (w/w) Gondre was preferred over other ratios.

Electronic products utilizing flexible devices experience harsh mechanical deformations in real-use environments. As a result, researches on the mechanical reliability of these flexible devices have attracted considerable interest among researchers. This study employed previous bending strain models and finite element analysis to predict the maximum bending strain of metal films deposited on flexible substrates. Bending experiments were simulated using finite element analysis with variations in the material and thickness of the thin films, and the substrate thickness. The results were compared with the strains predicted by existing models. The distribution of strain on the surface of film was observed, and the error rate of the existing model was analyzed during bending. Additionally, a modified model was proposed, providing mathematical constants for each case.

The effects of distribution temperature due to season all changes on quality and storability of baby leaf beet (Beta vulgaris L.) was examined in modified atmosphere (MA) packages. The beet leaf had been harvested at the 10 cm leaf length stage and packaged with an oxygen transmission rate (OTR) film of $1,300cc{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}day^{-1}{\cdot}atm^{-1}$ and then held at 4 different distribution temperatures which were $-2^{\circ}C$, $4^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$, or $30^{\circ}C$ for 5 hrs and then stored for 18 days at $8^{\circ}C$. The loss of fresh weight of packged baby leaf beet was lowest at the $4^{\circ}C$ treatment, and below 0.6% in all distribution temperature treatments. The atmosphere composition in packages did not show any significant differences among treatments. The oxygen conc. was the highest at 18.0% after the $4^{\circ}C$ treatment, carbon dioxide conc. showed the maximum value of 4% at the $30^{\circ}C$ and $-2^{\circ}C$ treatments, and ethylene conc. was highest at the $10^{\circ}C$ treatment after 10 days in storage. The hardness was the highest at the $4^{\circ}C$ treatment on the final storage day. The $4^{\circ}C$ treatment showed the highest visual quality and the lowest off-odor and aerobic plate count. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a low-temperature distribution system which is controlled under $4^{\circ}C$, because the baby leaf beet's storability and microbial growth are effected even during a short time of 5 hrs during the distribution process.
