In this work, epitaxial GaN is grown on sapphire substrate in AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. Deliberate oxygen doping of GaN grown by MOVPE has been studied. The electron concentration increased as a function of the square root of the oxygen partial Pressure. Oxygen is a shallow donor with a thermal ionization energy of $27\pm2 meV$ measured by temperature dependent Hall effects. A compensation ratio of $\theta$=0.3~0.4 was determined from Hall effect measurements. The formation energy of $O_N$ of $E^F$ =1.3eV determined from the experimental data, is lower than the theoretically predicted vague.

This study was carried out for the purpose of pre-estimating long-term settlement under condition of actual field soil's property, in case of building up industrial sites on the marine deposit silty clay located at West Coast in Korea. This study analyzed Hyperbolic Method, Square Root Time Method and Exponential Function Method with utilization of measured survey values of settlement in In-Cheon Namdong Industrial Sites. In the future, for the continuos utilization, it seemed to be needed that further the survey values of fields should be accurartely measured for the analysis of more accurate pre-estimate about long-term settlement. Among the prediction methods of settlement Hyperbolic Method seemed to be the best fitting method for measured data. The settlement equations were derived from above three methods, for long-term settlements.

A fast iterative solving method of fuzzy relational equation is proposed. It is derived by eliminating a redundant comparison process in the conventional iterative solving method (Pedrycz, 1983). The proposed method is applied to image reconstruction, and confirmed that the computation time is decreased to 1 / 40 with the compression rate of 0.0625. Furthermore, in order to make any initial solution converge on a reconstructed image with a good quality, a new cost function is proposed. Under the condition that the compression rate is 0.0625, it is confirmed that the root mean square error of the proposed method decreases to 27.34% and 86.27% compared with those of the conventional iterative method and a non iterative image reconstruction method, respectively.

The state variables estimated in an observer were useed in feedback control of a hydraulic servosystem to increase the system stability and to enhance the system performance. The nonlinear hydraulic servosystem with the inherent nonlinearities due to the square root function of flow equation, the Coulomb friction and so on, was modelled as a fourth order linear hydraulic servosystem. Also, a second order linear system was derived for the observer-controller design. For these models, a fourth order linear observer and a second order linear observer were constructed respectively to evaluate the performance of the observer-based hydraulic servosystem. The results obtained from series of simulation showed that the system which had shown oscillatory phenomenon under proportional control became stable with the same maximum acceleration and velocity that it had started under proportional control.

When a strong electric field is applied between a sharply curved electrode and a blunt surface, the corona may result in a gas movement in the electrode gap which is directed toward the blunt surface. That is called the corona wind. It enhances heat and mass transfer between the surface and the surrounding gas. Moreover such enhancement causes no noise or vibration, which can be applied in complex, isolated geometries, and allows simple control of surface temperatures. This paper examines the relationship between the corona wind and the relative humidity. The facility consists of high voltage power supply thin tungsten wire, plate electrode, multimeter, microammeter and flow meter. Gas velocity is a linear function of voltage, relative humidity and is proportional to the square root of the current. The maximum velocities for the positive and negative corona discharge are 1.9 m/s (2.74 CMM/m), 1.5 m/s(2.15 CMM/m), respectively.

Bond strength of reinforcing bar to high-performance concrete using Belite cement is explored using beam end test specimen. The key parameters for the bond test are slump of concrete, top bar effect, and strength of concrete in addition to concrete covers. Specimen failed in the typical brittle bond failure splitting the concrete cover as the wedging action. The test results show that for the group with portland cement I using superplasticizer additional slump does not decrease the bond strength of the top bar is less than bond strength of bottom bar, but the top bar factor satisfy the modification factor for top reinforcement. The result also show that bond strength is function of square root of concrete compressive strength and cover thickness. More detailed evaluation will be conducted from the test specimen with high strength concrete using the belite cement.

This paper proposes an optimal design method for the shape optimization of the permanent magnets (PM) of an in-wheel permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) to reduce the cogging torque considering a total harmonic distortion (THD) and a root mean square (RMS) value of back-EMF. In this method, the Kriging model based on a design of experiment (DOE) is applied to interpolate the objective function in the spaces of design parameters. The optimal design method for the PM of an in-wheel PMSM has to consider multi-variable and multi-objective functions. The developed design method is applied to the optimization for the PM of an in-wheel PMSM.

The ride comfort is one of the important dynamic performances of railway vehicle and is affected by the various factors, such as vibration, sound, temperature, humidity, etc. In general, vibration is known to be a major effect of rode comfort. There are many studies on the evaluation methods of ride comfort in the railway vehicle vibration. Each of the evaluation methods suggested by Spelling and in the standards recommends a different evaluation method and guidance. So users must review whether they can apply it to their railway system or not. In this study, we have suggested the relationship between several evaluation methods using the statistical vibration model based on the experimental data.

In this paper, we present the fabrication and characteristic analysis of Sagnac interferometric optical fiber senior(OFS) system for detecting pulsed ultrasonic signal in underwater. The hollow cylindrical mandrel wound round by single mode optical fiber is used as sensing component. The ultrasonic signal source is simulated by the PZT actuator operated by an function generator. The distance dependency of the OFS's sensitivity was measured. The sensitivity has been shown to be inversely propotional to the square-root of distance between ultrasonic source and sensing component. It has also been shown that the OFS could detect the signals less affected by ultrasonic path comparing to conventional acousto-electric sensor. and accurate location of ultrasonic signal could be carried out using two OFSs.

The mean temperature is one of the key parameters in computing Precipitable Water Vapor (PWV) from Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements and is usually derived as a function of surface temperature through the use of a mean temperature equation (MTE). In this study, two new types of MTEs were developed as functions solely of the observation time so that the mean temperature can be obtained without surface temperature measurements. To validate the new models, we created one-year time series of GPS-derived PWV using the new MTEs and compared them with the radiosonde-observed PWV. The bias and root-mean-square error were on the other of ~1 mm and ~2 mm, respectively.
