An experimental study for the characteristics of the thrust-vectoring of a sonic jet utilizing the coanda flap installed at a rectangular nozzle exit is performed. Two side plates are installed at both sides of the flap to decrease the three dimensional effects of the jet on the flap surface. Schlieren flow visualizations and quantitative measurements of the deflection angle of thrusting vector show that the side plates are able to delay the separation of the jet at the downstream of the flap surface. Substantial increase in the deflection angle of the jet as high as $72^{\circ}$ and small thrust loss as low as 7% are obtained by the present thrust-vectoring technique using the side plates.

The pressure pulses generated from the underwater electric spark system ranged from 0.4 to 1.6kJ are measured with the variation of source depth and range. The characteristics of pressure pulses obtained through this experiment continue to show the same electric energy and depth dependence previously reported, but two particular phenomena are observed. First, it is observed that the peak pressure of the 1st bubble pulse induced from implosion is higher than that of the initial shock wave, which is particularily apparent to high electric energy more than 10kJ previous studies. Second, it has been reported that the energy ratio (potential energy of bubble/intrinsic energy of source) has some tendency to "droop" on the low electric energy as 0.02 for 5kJ and 0.01 for 1kJ but the results of the present experiment show that it continues to have the ratio of 0.01 near 1kJ again.

The results of systematic numerical experiments of secondary gas injection thrust vector control are presented. The effects of secondary injection system such as injection location and nozzle divergent cone angle onto the overall performance parameters such as thrust ratio, specific impulse ratio and axial thrust augmentation, are investigated. Complex nozzle exhaust flows induced by the secondary jet penetration is numerically analyzed by solving unsteady three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model for closure. Numerical simulations compared with the experiments of secondary air injection into the rocket nozzle of $9.6^{\cire}$ divergent half angle showed good agreement. The results obtained in terms of overall performance parameters showed that locating the secondary injection orifice further downstream of primary nozzle ensures the prevention of occurrence of reflected shock wave, therefore is suitable for efficient and stable thrust vectoring over a wide range of use.

LE-7A is the main engine of the H-IIA launch vehicle. Under its development, the nozzle suffered from two troubles during startup and shutdown transients of the engine. One is a large side load, which damages the actuator of the nozzle, and the other is damage on regenerative cooling tubes due to high heat load. It has been considered that these problems are caused by a peculiar separation pattern called Restricted Shock Separation (RSS). RSS is observed in several rocket nozzles, for example, LE-7A nozzle, Vulcain nozzle and so on. Their contours are not conventional truncated perfect (TP) nozzle - LE-7A nozzle is a compressed truncated perfect (CTP) nozzle and Vulcain nozzle is a thrust optimized (TO) nozzle. Although it is believed that the occurrence of RSS is affected by the nozzle contour, the mechanisms are not clarified sufficiently yet. In the present paper, a parametric numerical study is carried out to investigate the mechanisms of the occurrence of RSS in CTP nozzles during startup transient. The results show that RSS is caused by the adverse pressure gradient downstream of the Mach disk. The adverse pressure gradient is caused by the interaction of the pressure wave and Mach disk. The method to avoid the occurrence of RSS is also examined. A small step inside the nozzle affects the position of the separation point and prevents RSS. The result shows that the possibility that RSS can be suppressed by controlling the position of the separation point.

Computational assessment of gas-dynamic characteristics is explored for a three-dimensional counter-flow thrust vector control system in a rectangular supersonic nozzle. This convergent-divergent nozzle is designed by Method of Characteristics and its design Mach number is specially set as 2.5. Performance variations of the counter-flow vector system are illustrated by varying the gap height of the secondary flow duct. Key parameters are quantitatively analyzed, such as static pressure distribution along the centerline of the upper suction collar, deflection angle, secondary mass flow ratio, and resultant thrust coefficient. Additionally, the streamline on the symmetry plane, three-dimensional iso-Mach number surface contour, and three-dimensional turbulent kinetic energy contour are presented to reveal overall flow-field characteristics in detail.

Pattern 웨이퍼 상의 오염입자 제거는 반도체 산업의 주된 과제 중 하나이다. Pattern의 선폭이 좁아짐에 따라 Pattern에 손상을 가하지 않고 오염입자를 제거 하는 것은 더욱 어려워지고 있다. 그뿐만 아니라 기존 습식세정 공정에서의 화학액에 의한 환경오염 및 박막의 손실도 문제가 되기 시작했다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 기존 세정공정에서 화학액의 농도를 낮추고 Megasonic 등을 이용하여 세정력을 보완하는 방법들이 연구되고 있다. 하지만 습식세정의 경우 강한 화학작용으로 인한 표면 손상 및 물 반점의 문제는 여전히 이슈가 되고 있다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위하여 건식 세정법이 제시되고 있으며 이 중 레이저 충격파는 레이저를 집속시켜 발생된 충격파를 이용하여 입자를 제거하기 때문에 국부적인 세정이 가능하며 세정력 조절이 가능하여 손상이 세정을 할 수 있다. 그러나 Pattern의 구조에 의해 전되는 세정력의 차이가 발생하고 Trench 내부의 오염입자제거 문제점이 발생할 수 있다. 시편은 Si STI Pattern을 100 nm PSL Particle (Red Fluorescence, Duke Scientific, USA) 을 50ppm 농도로 희석시킨 IPA에 dipping 하여 오염시킨 후 N2 Gas를 이용하여 건조하여 준비하였다. 그리고 레이저 충격파 세정 시스템은 최대 에너지 1.8 J까지 가능한 레이저를 발생하는 1,064 nm Nd:YAG 레이저를 이용하여 실험하였다. 레이져 충격파 실험은 충격파와 시편사이의 거리, gap distance와 에너지를 변환하여 세정효율을 관찰하였다. 세정효율은 세정 전후의 입자 감소량을 현광현미경 (LV-150, Nikon, Japan)를 이용하여 측정하였다. 그 결과, Trench 내부의 오염입자의 경우 Trench 밖의 오염입자에 비해 세정효율이 떨어지는 것으로 나타났으나 시편과 레이저 초점과의 거리가 가까워짐에 따라 Trench 내부의 오염입자에 대한 세정 효율을 증가시킬 수 있었다.

Kidney stones occur in approximately 1% of the population during their lifetime. Although the development of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) has revolutionized the theraphy of urolithiasis, the rate of recurrence of urothiasis, the rate of recurrenece of stones after SWL is about 50% within 10 years, which still represents serious problems for patienes. So to clarify the mechanism of Urocalum, and QS (Quercus salicina Blume) extract in the treatment of urolithiasis. Rat calcium oxalate urolithiasis was induced by oral administration of ethylene glycol and the vitamin D3 analog alfacalcidol for 14 days and QS extract was given to rats. After the last administration, we measured in urine, serum and renal oxidative stress marker. Ethylene glycol and alfacalcidol treatment increased BUN, creatinine, uric acid and XO. This increase was significantly suppressed by the administration of QS extract. These finding suggest that the QS extract plays a role in the prevention of stone formation and recureence in urolithiasis.

The ubiquitous transportation system environments make it possible to collect each vehicle's position and velocity data and to perform more sophisticated traffic flow management at individual vehicle or platoon level through V2V and V2I communication. It is necessary to develop a new data processing methodology to take advantage of the ubiquitous transportation system environments. This paper proposed to build 3-dimension data profiles to maintain the detailed traffic flow information contained in the individual vehicles' data and at the same time to keep the profiles from the meaningless fluctuations. Also methods to build the platoon profile and the shock wave speed profile are proposed, which have not been possible under ITS(Intelligent Transportation System) environments.

Pulsed lasers at the 613 nm and 1064 nm wavelengths on nanoseconds have been utilized to characterize the damage on Si photodiode exposed to intense illumination. Morphological damages and structural changes at sites on the photodiode irradiated during microseconds of laser pulses were analyzed by FE-SEM images and XRD patterns, respectively. The removal of oxide coating, ripple, melting marks, ridges, and crater on photodiodes were definitely observed in order of increasing the pulse intensities generated above the damage threshold. Then, the degradation in photosensitivity of the Si photodiode irradiated by high power density pulses was measured as a function of laser irradiation time at the various wavelengths. The free charge carrier and thermal diffusion mechanisms could have been invoked to characterize the damage. The relative photosensitivity data calculated using the thermal diffusion model proposed in this paper have been compared with the experimental data irradiated above the damage threshold.

As the capacity of the wireless power transmission increases, a higher supply current which may induce current in nearby conductive parts requires. Induced current may affect electric shock to the human body and malfunction of the electrical equipment. In order to prevent such induced phenomena as a risk factor, shielding is required between the source of the wireless power transmission and the conductive parts. The resonance frequency for the large capacity wireless power transmission has the wavelength of several hundred meters, so most environments are included in the near-field area. By wave impedance, the electric field has higher density in the near-field area and needs to be analyze for protecting. For this purpose, it is necessary to select a substance having a larger electric conductivity and optimized shielding structure. In this paper, an aluminum base shielding structure was presented to conduct experiments on thickness, position, and heat dissipation. In the 35 kW, 60 kHz environments, the optimized 5T Al base shielding structure attenuates the induced current to 43 %.
