High Tc Supperconducting thin films were fabricated by rf magnetron sputtering method. We have successfully controlled the compositions of films by adding sintered CuO pellets on YBa2Cu3O7-x single target. High Tc thin films with large grian size and good crystal habit were obtained by rapid thermal annealing process. The films deposited on SrTiO3(100) single crystal substrate indicated the existence of c-axis prefered orientation confirmed by XRD and SEM analysis. The Tc, zero's of sharp resistive transition for rapid annealed films deposited on polycrystalline YSZ substrate and on SrTiO3(100) single crystal substrate were 79K and 88K, respectively.

This paper describes the path planning method in an unknown environment for an autonomous mobile robot equipped with CCD(Charge-Coupled Device) camera. The mobile robot moves along the guideline. The CCD camera is useful to detect the existence of a guideline. The wavelet transform is used to find the edge of guideline. Using wavelet transform, we can make an image processing more easily and rapidly. We make a fuzzy control rule using image data then make a decision the position and the navigation of the mobile robot. The center value that indicates the center of guideline is the input of fuzzy logic controller and the steering angle of the mobile robot is the fuzzy output. Some actual experiments for the mobile robot applied fuzzy control show that the mobile robot effectively moves to target position.

This paper describes an analytic method for infrared thermography to detect surface cracks in thin plates. Traditional thermographic method uses the spatial contrast of a thermal field, which is often corrupted by noise in the experiment induced mainly by emissivity variations of target surfaces. This study developed a robust analytic approach to crack detection for thermography using the holomorphic function of a temperature field in thin plate under steady-state thermal conditions. The holomorphic function of a simple temperature field was derived for 2-D heat flow in the plate from Cauchy-Riemann conditions, and applied to define a contour integral that varies depending on the existence and strength of singularity in the domain of integration. It was found that the contour integral at each point of thermal image reduced the noise and temperature variation due to heat conduction, so that it provided a clearer image of the singularity such as cracks.

We have designed and synthesized the colorimetric chemosensor through the reactions of 1,2-anthraquinone and indol-3-carboxaldehyde. Due to its well conjugated D-${\pi}$-A system and the existence of NH-fragment in indole moiety, we expected that the chemosensor can detect target anions with NH-fragment in indole part of the structure. In this regard, UV-Vis absorption spectra were measured to investigate sensing properties of the probe toward different anions in DMSO. This chemosensor shows to detect fluoride anions with absorption change in intensity. These properties are mainly related to the deprotonation effect. ICT system in this molecule was also observed by the computational approach using Material Studio 4.3 package.

Titanium nitride (TiN) coatings were produced on AISI 420 stainless steel by DC magnetron sputtering of a Ti target changing the processing variables, such as the flow rate of $N_2/Ar$, substrate temperature and the existence of Ti interlayer between TiN coatings and substrates. The hardness and residual stress in the films were investigated using nanoindentation and a laser scanning device, respectively. The stoichiometry and surface morphology were investigated using X-Ray Diffraction and SEM. The corrosion property of the films was also studied using a polarization method in NaCl (0.9%) solution. Mechanical properties including hardness and residual stress were related to the ratio of $N_2/Ar$ flow rate. The corrosion resistance also was related to the processing variables.

The CCD camera is used for the detection of the existence of a guideline. The wavelet transform is used to find the edge of guideline.

The center value of guideline is the input of fuzzy logic controller and the steering angle of the mobile robot is the fuzzy controller output. Some actual experiments show that the mobile robot effectively moves to target position by means of the applied fuzzy control.

An effective algorithm for implementation of unmanned surveillance system which detects moving object from image sequences, predicts the direction of it, and drives the camera in real time is proposed. Outputs of proposed algorithm are coordinates of location of moving object, and they are converted to the values according to camera model. As a pre- processing, extraction of moving object and shape discrimination are performed. Existence of the moving object or scene change is detected by computing the temporal derivatives of consecutive two or more images in a sequence, and this result of derivatives is combined with the edge map from one original gray level image to obtain the position of moving object. Shape discri-mination(Target identification) is performed by analysis of distribution of projection profiles in x and y directions. To reduce the prediction error due to the fact that the motion cha- racteristic of walking man may have an abrupt change of moving direction, an order adaptive lattice structured linear predictor is proposed.

EG/AD/S type model ice was originally selected as the primary model ice material for the MOERI ice tank in Korea. The existence of a sugar component in the EG/AD/S mixture may cause a serious maintenance problem. In order to understand the influence of sugar in the original model ice, a series of tests with EG/AD/S and EG/AD model ices were performed, and their material properties compared. Because the target strength of model ice in the full-scale MOERI ice tank is expensive and difficult to control, tests were performed under cold room conditions using a miniature ice tank. This paper describes the material properties of EG/AD/S and EG/AD model ices, such as flexural strength, compressive strength and elastic modulus. In order to obtain the desired strength and stiffness levels for the model ice, a warm-up process was introduced.

This paper addresses the problem of finding a constrained nearest neighbor for moving query point(we call it CNNMP) The Nearest neighbor problem is classified by existence of a constrained region, the number of query result and movement of query point and target. The problem assumes that the query point is not static, as 1-nearest neighbor problem, but varies its position over time to the constrained region. The parameters as NC, NCMBR, CQR and QL for the algorithm are also presented. We suggest the query optimization algorithm in consideration of topological relationship among them

The effect of ginsenoside (GS) from Panax ginseng on basal and nitro-L-arginine suppressed nitric oxide (NO) production was studied in rat kidney. NO production was determined by conversion to [$^{14C}$]=L-citrulline from [$^{14C}$]-L-arginine both in whole kidney and three renal segments; glomerulus, cortex excluding glomerulus (cortex-) and medulla. Nitro-L-arginine (total dose of 30 mg/kg/3 days, i.p.) significantly reduced NO production in whole kidney, which was prevented by GS pretreatment (30 mg/kg/3 days, i.p.). Relative high dose of GS (120 mg/kg/4 days, i.p..) selectively increased NO production in glomerulus and cortex-. Protein content, on wet weight basis, in cortex- and glomerular DNA content were significantly reduced by GS. Our results confirm the existence of constitutive nitric oxide synthase in kidney and it seems that target nephron segment for volume expansion due to GS'NO-mediated vasodilation and for NO production stimulated by GS is cortex including glomerulus.lus.
