A novel characterization method was investigated to estimate the trap generation during the program /erase cycles in nand flash memory cell. Utilizing Fowler-Nordheim tunneling current, floating gate potential and oxide electric field, we established a quantitative model which allows the knowledge of threshold voltage (Vth) as a function of either program or erase operation time. Based on our model, the derived results proved that interface trap density (Nit) term is only included in the program operation equation, while both Nit and oxide trap density (Not) term are included in the erase operation equation. The effectiveness of our model was tested using 50 nm nand flash memory cell with floating gate type. Nit and Not were extracted through the analysis of Program/Erase speed with respect to the endurance cycle. Trap generation and cycle numbers showed the power dependency. Finally, with the measurement of the experiment concerning the variation of cell Vth with respect to program/erase cycles, we obtained the novel quantitative model which shows similar results of relationship between experimental values and extracted ones.

Trust can be defined as the level of subjective probability with which an agent will perform a particular action. This paper proposes a comprehensive fuzzy trust model which incorporates dispositional trust, general trust, and situational trust and reputation information. In the model, the preference degrees for the interaction outcomes with respect to the evaluation criteria are expressed in a fuzzy set, and Sugeno's fuzzy integral is employed to aggregate the satisfaction degrees with respect to the importance of evaluation criteria which can be assigned in a way to preserve the properties of the ${\lambda}-fuzzy$ measure.

Macroscopic combustion models used in gun interior ballistic codes are discussed and experimental methods to measure propellant burning rate are reviewed. Comparing with gun firing results, the limit of combustion model is shown and modified combustion model is proposed. But combustion model should be selected with respect to total gun system including propellants.

FOUNDATION fieldbus provides scheduling and token-passing services for cyclic and sporadic data respectively. In this paper, we evaluate the delay performance of token-passing mechanism in FOUNDATION fieldbus network system using an experimental model. This paper introduces a method of developing an experimental model which consists of 10 nodes of FOUNDATION fieldbus communication device. Using the experimental model, we evaluate the delay performance of time-critical and time-available data with respect to change of TTRT parameter.

Among various joint ventures, International Construction Joint Ventures (ICJVs) have emerged as a popular approach worldwide to developing large scale projects through international participation. A model, based on economic analysis and represented by several hypotheses obtained from the analysis, will be developed. Furthermore, we will empirically test the hypotheses/model using Structural Equation Model (SEM). This research is expected to explain why there exist different organizational forms for ICJVs, and to develop a framework for choosing appropriate forms with respect to various characteristics of ICJVs.

This paper establishes a compact and practical model for a water-wall system comprising supercritical once-through boilers, which can be used for automatic control or simple analysis of the entire boiler-turbine system. Input and output variables of the water-wall system are defined, and balance equations are applied using a lumped parameter method. For practical purposes, the dynamic equations are developed with respect to pressure and temperature instead of density and internal energy. A comparison with results obtained using APESS, a practical thermal power plant simulator developed by Doosan Heavy Industries and Construction, is presented with respect to steady state and transient responses.

In dynamic management environment, CEO must make an efficient decision with information & knowledge management systems based on IT(Information Technology). As a key component to cope with this current, we suggest the business performance analysis system based on KDD(Knowledge Discovery in Databases). We consider the theoretical model that is composited both Value-Added in respect of stakeholder and Economic Value-Added in respect of shareholder. Additionally we use DBMS and data mining method using Genetic Algorithms as physical model. To demonstrate the performance of the business performance analysis system, we analyse a domestic motors industry. The empirical case is based on the financial data of KISFAS(Korea Investors Services Financial Analysis System) database. The samples included in the study consist of H motors/S motors industry over the 16-year from 1981 to 1996.

The reduction phenomena of the compressive strength of concrete with respect to the size of specimens have been extensively investigated. However, adequate analysis technique have not been developed until now. Existing researches have shown that the larger member size, the smaller the strength. This indicated the necessity of nonlinear fracture mechanics theory in order to analyze the fracture behaviors of concrete. The are some models that predict the size effect of compressive strength of cylindrical specimens. Theses equations, however, are developed not considering the difference of fracturing mechanism which depends on both geometry of specimen and the strength level of concrete. In this paper, a model to predict compressive strength of cylindrical concrete specimens with respect to diameters, h/d ratios, and the strength level of concrete, is suggested. For this purpose, theoretical and statistical analyses are conducted. Experimental constants used in the model of new size effect are formulated in terms of strength levels of concrete based on existing experimental data.

Color segmentation takes great attentions since a color is an effective and robust visual cue for characterizing one object from other objects. Color segmentation is, however, suffered from color variation induced from irregular illumination changes. This paper proposes a reliable color modeling approach in HSI (Hue-Saturation-Intensity) rotor space considering intensity information by adopting B-spline curve fitting to make a mathematical model for statistical characteristics of a color with respect to brightness. It is based on the fact that color distribution of a single-colored object is not invariant with respect to brightness variations even in HS (Hue-Saturation) plane. The proposed approach is applied for the segmentation of human skin areas successfully under various illumination conditions.

In this paper, a representative unit volume (RUV) model was employed to simulate thermoforming process of carbon fabric-polymeric foam sandwich structures. Thermoforming simulations, which capture crimp angles and amplitude changes of carbon fabric with respect to different types of foams under the operating pressure were conducted with the help of RUV model. Changed shapes of tow structure after thermoforming were reflected in the two dimensional to determine mechanical properties of skin parts, i.e_ carbon fabric composites after thermoforming. Bending simulations with respect to different foam systems as well as different moduli of carbon fabric composites were successfully carried out by using properties obtained from two-dimensional analyses.
