In this paper, the EPICS2017 photoatomic database was used to evaluate the photon mass attenuation coefficients and buildup factors of soils collected at different depths in the Philippine islands. The extraction and interpolation of the library was accomplished at the recommended linear-linear scales to obtain the incoherent and total cross section and mass attenuation coefficient. The buildup factors were evaluated using the G-P fitting method in ANSI/ANS-6.4.3. An agreement was achieved between XCOM, MCNP5, and EPICS2017 for the calculated mass attenuation coefficient values. The buildup factors were reported at several penetration depths within the standard energy grid. The highest values of both buildup factor classifications were found in the energy range between 100 and 400 keV where incoherent scattering interaction probabilities are predominant, and least at the region of predominant photoionization events. The buildup factors were examined as a function of different soil silica contents. The soil samples with larger silica concentrations were found to have higher buildup factor values and hence lower shielding characteristics, while conversely, those with the least silica contents have increased shielding characteristics brought by the increased proportions of the abundant heavier oxides.

Removal of variability in spectra data before the application of chemometric modeling will generally result in simpler (and presumably more robust) models. Particularly for sparsely sampled data, such as typically encountered in diode array instruments, the use of Savitzky-Golay (S-G) derivatives offers an effective method to remove effects of shifting baselines and sloping or curving apparent baselines often observed with scattering samples. The application of these convolution functions is equivalent to fitting a selected polynomial to a number of points in the spectrum, usually 5 to 25 points. The value of the polynomial evaluated at its mid-point, or its derivative, is taken as the (smoothed) spectrum or its derivative at the mid-point of the wavelength window. The process is continued for successive windows along the spectrum. The original paper, published in 1964 [1] presented these convolution functions as integers to be used as multipliers for the spectral values at equal intervals in the window, with a normalization integer to divide the sum of the products, to determine the result for each point. Steinier et al. [2] published corrections to errors in the original presentation [1], and a vector formulation for obtaining the coefficients. The actual selection of the degree of polynomial and number of points in the window determines whether closely situated bands and shoulders are resolved in the derivatives. Furthermore, the actual noise reduction in the derivatives may be estimated from the square root of the sums of the coefficients, divided by the NORM value. A simple technique to evaluate the actual convolution factors employed in the calculation by the software will be presented. It has been found that some software packages do not properly account for the sampling interval of the spectral data (Equation Ⅶ in [1]). While this is not a problem in the construction and implementation of chemometric models, it may be noticed in comparing models at differing spectral resolutions. Also, the effects on parameters of PLS models of choosing various polynomials and numbers of points in the window will be presented.

본 연구에서는 기상조건에 영향을 받지 않고 레이더산란 측정을 할 수 있는 X-band 안테나 기반 자동관측 시스템을 구축하였다. 이 시스템을 이용하여 벼 생육시기에 따른 편파별 후방산란계수 변화와 벼 생육인자 변화를 관측하고, 후방산란계수와 벼 생육인자와의 관계를 분석을 통해 최적조건의 후방산란계수를 이용한 벼 생육을 추정하였다. 벼 생육시기에 후방산란계수 변화를 관측해 본 결과 생육초기에는 VV-편파가 HH, HV/VH-편파 보다 후방산란계수가 높게 나타났고, 모든 편파별 후방산란계수가 벼 유수형성기 (7월 말경)까지 증가하다가 그 후 감소 한 후 9월 초순이후 다시 증가하는 dual-peak 현상을 뚜렷이 나타났다. 동시에 생육시기에 따른 생체중, 이삭 건물중, 엽면적지수, 초장 등 벼 생육인자들의 생육 변화를 관측해 보았는데 생체중, 엽면적지수, 초장은 6월 중순부터 7월 하순까지 편파별 후방산란계수와의 변화 경향이 비슷하게 나타났고, 이삭 건물중의 경우 특히 VV-편파 후방산란계수가 9월 초순에서 10월 초순까지 변화 경향이 동일하게 나타났다. 편파별 후방산란계수와 벼 생육인자와의 상관관계를 분석한 결과 엽면적지수, 생체중은 6월 중순 (DOY 168)부터 7월 하순 (DOY 209) 시기에 HH-편파 후방산란 계수와 상관관계가 높았고, 초장은 같은 시기에 VV-편파 후방산란계수와 관계가 높게 나타났다. 이삭 건물중의 경우 벼 출수기가 끝나고 결실기로 접어드는 9월 초순 (DOY 244) 부터 10월 초순 (DOY 276) 시기에 VV-편파 후방산란계수와 상관관계가 높게 나타났다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 벼 생육인자와 상관이 높게 나타난 편파별 후방산란계수를 이용하여 벼 생육을 추정하였다. 엽면적지수는 HH-편파 후방산란계수를 이용하여 2007년도 실측값과 2008년도 추정 경험 모형을 비교해본 결과 비교적 오차가 작았고 (RMSE=0.43), 상관관계가 높은 HH-편파 후방산란계수를 이용하여 2007년도 생체중 실측값과 생체중 추정 모형 (2008년도)을 비교해 본 결과 RMSE가 41.0 g $m^{-2}$ 으로 비교적 작은 오차를 보여 생체중 추정 모형의 유효성이 높다는 것이 증명되었다. 또한 초장의 경우 실측값 (2007년)과 초장 추정 모형 (2008년)을 비교 분석한 결과 오차 범위가 비교적 작게 나타났고 (RMSE=6.93 cm), VV-편파 후방산란계수를 이용해 얻은 이삭 건물중 추정 경험 모형 (2008년도)과 2007년도 이삭 건물중 실측값과의 관계를 통해 추정식을 검증한 결과 RMSE=0.35 g/m2 을 보여 이삭 건물중 추정모형의 유효성이 높다는 것이 증명되었다. 본 연구결과에서는 Kim et al. (2009)이 일정한 간격을 두고 수동조건으로 관측한 결과와 비교해서 벼 생육시기에 따른 편파별 후방산란계수 변화 경향이 뚜렷하게 나타났고, 이 후방산란계수를 이용하여 벼 생육인자와의 관계 및 추정 결과에서도 기존 결과보다 상관관계 및 생육추정 모형 유효성이 높게 나타났다. 본 연구 결과를 통해 X-band 산란계 자동측정 시스템을 이용하여 벼 생육을 예측 할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 다편파 레이더 산란계 자동 측정시스템 이용하여 콩 생육변화를 관측하고 레이더 시스템에서 얻어진 후방산란계수과 콩 생육인자들과의 관계분석을 통하여 콩 생육추정 가능성을 모색하고자 하였다. 2010년도 농촌진흥청 국립식량과학원 연구지역에 다편파 레이더 산란계 관측시스템 (L, C, X-밴드 안테나, 네트워크분석기, RF switch, 입사각 $40^{\circ}$)을 구축하고 콩 파종시기에서 수확기까지 10분단위로 콩 생육변화를 자동 측정하였다. 모든 안테나 밴드, 편파에서 콩 생육초기 (6월초~7월 중순)에는 VV-편파가 HH-, HV-편파보다 후방산란계수가 높게 나타났고, 그 이후 HH-편파와 다른 편파들 간의 cross-over 현상이 일어났는데 그 시기는 L-밴드가 7월 20일 (DOY 200), C-, X-밴드의 경우에는 7월 30일 (DOY 210)로 밴드에 따라 차이를 보였다. 모든 밴드 및 편파에서 9월 29일 (DOY 271)까지 후방산란계수가 증가하다가 그 이후 감소하였고 특히 종실비대기 (DOY 277, R6) 이후 감소폭이 크게 나타났는데 이 현상은 콩 생육인자 (초장, 엽면적지수, 건물중 등)변화와 일치하였다. 밴드에 따른 후방산란계수와 콩 생육인자들과의 관계를 분석한 결과 L-밴드 HH-편파에서 LAI ($r=0.93^{***}$), 초장 ($r=0.95^{***}$), 건물중 ($r=0.94^{***}$), 꼬투리중 ($r=0.92^{***}$)등 콩 생육인자들과의 상관계수가 가장 높게 나타났고 이에 비해 X-밴드 편파에서는 콩 생육인자들과의 상관계수가 상대적으로 낮게 나타났다. 후방산란계수 (L-밴드 HH-편파)를 이용하여 콩 생육인자 추정을 위한 회귀식을 작성하였다.

Microwave dielectric properties of the layered and functionally graded materials (FGMs) of $Mg_{0.93}Ca_{0.07}TiO_3$ (MCT) and $(Ca_{0.3}Li_{0.14}Sm_{0.42})TiO_3$(CLST) were investigated as a function of the volume ratio of two components. Dielectric constant was decreased with an increase of the volume ratio of MCT which had a lower dielectric constant thant CLST. For the layered FGMs specimens, the difference of thermal expansion coefficients between two components induced thermal strain to dielectric layers, which was confirmed by the plot of ${\Delta}$k (X-ray diffraction peak width0 versus k (scattering vector) using the double-peak Lorentzian function, f(x). Quality factor of the specimens was affected by the thermal strain of dielectric layer, especially MCT layer. For the specimen with the volume ratio of MCT/CLST = 2, the qulaity factor of the specimen showed a minimum value due to the maximum thermal strain fo MCT layer.

The measurements of monochromatic line-of-sight flame emission and light transmission in the same path having small spatial resolution were performed in an axisymmetric laminar propane $C_{3}H_{8}$ diffusion flame. The light wavelengthes of 632 nm, 800nm, 900nm were used. From these measurements, local point soot radiances (by Kirchhoff's law) and absorption coefficients were reconstructed by tomography. Thus local point soot temperatures and concentrations were obtained. The reconstructed soot temperatures and concentrations of local points have no differences between the case of visible range (632 nm) and the case of infrared range (800 nm and 900 nm). In these ranges, the scattering coefficient is much lower than the absorption coefficient. Soot mean temperature over the path also matches well with local soot temperature in outer region of the flame. Temperature measurement by thermocouple with different bead diameters $(222{\mu}m and 308{\mu}m)$ was carried in the same flame. Rapid insertion technique was used and radiation effect was considered. Radiation correction in the sooting region was carried out and the corrected result was in good agreement with the local soot temperature.

An Oscillating Water Column (OWC) is a relatively practical and convenient device that converts wave energy to a usable form, which is electricity. The OWC is kept inside a fixed truncated vertical cylinder, which is a hollow structure with one open end submerged in the water and with an air turbine at the top. This research adopts potential theory and Galerkin methods to solve the fluid motion inside the OWC. Using an air-water interaction model, OWC design for energy extraction from regular wave is also explored. The hydrodynamic coefficients of the scattering and radiation potentials are solved for using the Galerkin approximation. The numerical results for the free surface elevation have been verified by a series of experiments conducted in the University of New Orleans towing tank. The effect of varying geometric parameters on the response amplitude operator (RAO) of the OWC is studied and modification of the equation for evaluating the natural frequency of the OWC is made. Using the model of air-water interaction under certain wave parameters and OWC geometric parameters, a computer program is developed to calculate the energy output from the system.

One of the central problems in astudy of the coastal surface wave environment is predicting the transformation of waves as they propagate toward the shore. The transformation is mainly due to the existence of obstacles, such as breakwaters and vertical cylinders. In general, the types of wave transformation can be classified as follows: wave diffraction, reflection, transmission, scattering, radiation, et al. This research dealtwith wave transmission and dissipation problems for two dimensional irregular waves and vertical circular cylinders. Using the unsteady mild slope equation, a numerical model was developed to calculate the reflection and transmission of regular waves from a multiple-row circular breakwater and vertical cylinders. In addition, hydraulic model experiments were conducted with different values for the properties between tire piles and the opening ratio (distances) between the rows of the breakwater. It was found that the transmission coefficients decreased with a decrease in the opening ratio and an increase in the rows of vertical cylinders. A comparison between the results of hydraulic and numerical experiments showed reasonable agreement.

This paper has been fabricated the two different type of variable attenuators using a characteristics of a 3 dB directional coupler and pin diodes. One was not analyzed using the conventional even-odd modes but used simple two-port techniques. The resulting scattering parameters described operation characteristics for the general case where the terminating impedances are equal and unequal. After analyzing resistor role of the ${\pi}$ type fixed attenuator. this paper used a pin diode instead of a resistor. The variable attenuators were fabricated using pin diodes for current-controlled attenuation on the coupled ports of a 3 dB branch-line coupler and ${\pi}$ type fixed attenuator. The realized variable attenuators have more than 33 dB attenuation ranges at 2.1 GHz. and the input and output reflection coefficients are less than -13 dB. These results could be applied to mobile communication systems. It can be varied gain of the power amplifier according to change a outdoor environmental temperature and improved linearity.
