This paper introduces homogeneous liquid crystal (LC) orientations on chemically modulated polystyrene (PS) surfaces using various ion beam (IB) exposure times. Transparent PS was replaced with conventional polyimide material. As a non-contact process, the IB bombardment process induced LC orientation parallel to the IB process. Through x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, it was shown that the chemical compositional changes of the IB-irradiated PS surfaces were determined as a function of IB exposure time. Using this analysis, the optimal IB bombardment condition was determined at an IB exposure time of up to 15 seconds. Moreover, thermal stability on IB-irradiated PS surfaces were carried out which showed that a relatively high IB exposure time induced a thermally stable LC alignment property.

The truss analogy for the analysis of beam-columns subjected of shear and flexure is limited by the contribution of transverse and longitudinal steel and diagonal concrete compression struts. However, it should be noted that even though the behavior of reinforced concrete beam-columns after cracking can be modeled with the truss analogy, they are not perfect trusses but still structural elements with a measure of continuity provided by a diagonal tension field. The mere notion of compression field denotes that there should be some tension field coexisting perpendicularly to it. The compression field is assumed to form parallel to the crack plane that forms under combined flexure and shear. Therefore, the concrete tension field may be defined as a mechanism existing across the crack and resisting crack opening. In this paper, the effect of concrete tensile properties on the shear strength and stiffness of reinforced concrete beam-columns is discussed using the Gauss two-point truss model. The theoretical predictions are validated against the experimental observations. Although the agreement is not perfect, the comparison shows the correct trend in degradation as the inelasticity increases.

This paper presents the series multiple tuned mass dampers (STMDs) to suppress the resonant vibrations of railway bridges under the passage of high-speed trains (HSTs). A STMD device consisting of two spring-mass-damper units connected each other in series is installed on the bridge. In solution, bridge is modeled as a simply-supported Euler-Bernoulli beam with constant cross-section, and vehicle is simulated as a series of moving forces with constant speed. By the assumed mode method, the governing equations of motion of the beam-TMD device coupled system traversed by a moving train are obtained. The optimum values for the parameters of the STMD device are obtained for the criterion based on the minimization of the maximum dynamic displacement of the beam at its midspan. Single TMD and multiple TMDs in parallel are also considered for demonstration of the STMD device's performance. The results show that STMDs are effective in bridge vibration suppression and robust to parameters' change in the main system and the absorber itself.

This paper presents an efficient and accurate coupled beam model for piezoelectric bimorphs based on improved first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT). The model combines the equivalent single layer approach for the mechanical displacements and a layerwise modeling for the electric potential. General electric field function is proposed to reasonably approximate the through-the-thickness distribution of the applied and induced electric potentials. Layerwise defined shear correction factor (k) accounting for nonlinear shear strain distribution is introduced into both the shear stress resultant and the electric displacement integration. Analytical solutions for free vibrations and forced response under electromechanical loads are obtained for the simply supported piezoelectric bimorphs with series or parallel arrangement, and the numerical results for various length-to-thickness ratios are compared with the exact two-dimensional piezoelasticity solution. Excellent predictions with low error estimates of local and global responses as well as the modal frequencies are observed.

레이저선속의 퍼짐각을 개선하기 위하여 공진기 내부에 선속분할기를 갖는 양영역 공초점 불안정공진기 구리증기레이저를 구성하였다. 기하광학적 배율 M=30인 공진기에서 0.15 mard의 최소 퍼짐각을 얻었고, M=60인 공진기를 사용하여 0.1 mard 의 값을 얻을 수 있었다. 퍼짐각 개선과 관련하여 상대적인 원거리 출력밀도가 최대 130배 증가된 레이저 출력을 얻을 수 있었으며, 자체잠김현상을 보이는 펄스 형태의 레이저 발진이 관측되었다.

Flame propagation characteristics of propane-air mixtures were experimentally investigated in constant-volume combustion chambers. Flame propagation process was observed as a function of mixture strength, initial mixture temperature and initial mixture pressure in quiescent mixtures. A cylindrical combustion chamber and a spherical combustion chamber contain a pair of parallel windows through which optical access into the chamber can be provided. Laser two beam deflection method was adopted to measure the local flame propagation, which gave information on the flame size and flame propagation speed. Pressure development was also measured by a piezoelectric pressure transducer to characterize combustion in quiescent mixtures. Burning velocity was calculated from flame propagation and pressure measurements. The effect of flow on flame propagation was also investigated under flowing mixture conditions. Laser two beam method was found to be feasible in measuring flame propagation of quiescent mixtures. Flame was observed to propagate faster with higher initial mixture temperature and lower initial pressure. Combustion duration was shortened in the highly turbulent flowing mixtures.

The MCNP5 neutron, electron, photon Monte Carlo transport program was installed on the KISTI's SUN Tachyon computer using the parallel programming. Electron beam accelerators were modeled and shielding calculations were performed in order to investigate the reduction of computation time in the supercomputer environment. It was observed that a speedup of 40 to 80 of computation time can be obtained using 64 CPUs compared to an IBM PC.

In this paper, we present a primitive system design of a super multi-view(SMV) 3-D display system based on a focused light array(FLA) concept using reflective vibrating scanner array(ViSA). The parallel beam scanning using a vibrating scanner array is performed by moving left and right an array of curvature-compensated mirrors or diamond-ruled reflective grating attached to a vibrating membrane. The parallel laser beam scanner array can replace the polygon mirror scanner which has been used in the SMV 3-D display system based on the focused light array(FLA) concept proposed by Kajiki at TAO(Telecommunications) Advancement Organization). The proposed system has great advantages in the sense that it requires neither huge imaging optics nor mechanical scanning pals. Some mathematical analyses and fundamental limitations of the proposed system are presented. The proposed vibrating scanner array, after some modifications and refinements, may replace polygon mirror-based scanners in the near future.

3D Feed Horn Shape MEMS Antenna Array는 적외선 이미지 소자 또는 Tera hertz band 등에서 많은 응용을 할 수 있는 장점을 가진 MEMS 구조체 이다. 하지만 일반적인 MEMS 공정을 이용해서 3D Feed Horn Shape MEMS antenna array를 구현하기는 적합하지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 마스크와 웨이퍼가 일체 된 형태의 경사된 척이 초 저속으로 회전하면서 노광을 할 수 있는 새로운 방식과 미러 반사구조를 이용해서 평행광을 얻을수 있는 노광장치 (MRPBI : Mirror Reflected Parallel Beam Illuminator) System제작방법을 제안하였다. 3D Feed Horn Shape MEMS Antenna의 구조적인 high apect ratio의 특성에 의해서 SU-8과 PMER Negative Photo resist를 이용한 기본적인 실험을 통해 3D 구조체의 구현 가능성을 증명하였다. 또한 Microbolometer의 성능향상을 위한 이론적인 3D MEMS Antenna Model들을 HFSS(High Frequency Structure Simulator)을 이용해서 그 최적구조를 제안하고 3D MEMS Antenna Gain 값을 비교 분석하였다.

광굴절 광기전력 특성을 갖는 Fe를 도핑한 LiNbO$_3$결정에서의 어두운 공간 솔리톤의 발생과 이의 광도파로 역할에 대해 연구하였다. 파장이 488nm인 cw $Ar^{+}$ 레이저를 이용하여 입사빔의 세기가 10mW/$cm^2$ 이하에서도 어두운 공간솔리톤이 발생됨을 관측하였다. 빔의 세기 변화 방향이 광축에 수직인 경우에는 자기확산 효과를 관측할 수 없었으나 광축에 평행한 경우에는 이 효과를 관측할 수 있었다. 이를 통해 매질에서의 굴절률 변화가 빔의 세기 변화 방향과 광축방향이 평행할 때만 일어남을 확인하였다 파장이 633nm인 He-Ne 레이저를 어두운 공간솔리톤에 통과시킴으로써 빔의 집속효과를 관측하였다. 이를 통해 어두운 공간솔리톤의 광도파로 역할을 확인하였다.
