The recent Bistable Nematic ($BiNem^{(R)}$) LCD technology presents long term bistability, high level passive matrix multiplexing, gray levels capabilities and high optical quality. The $BiNem^{(R)}$ device, based on anchoring breaking, needs specific low anchoring strength materials - alignment layers and liquid crystal mixtures. We present here our approach to develop nematic mixtures with wide enough temperature range and low zenithal anchoring energy.

The human expression contains a lot of information that can be used to detect complex conditions such as pain and fatigue. After deep learning became the mainstream method, the traditional feature extraction method no longer has advantages. However, in order to achieve higher accuracy, researchers continue to stack the number of layers of the neural network, which makes the real-time performance of the model weak. Therefore, this paper proposed an expression recognition framework based on densely concatenated convolutional neural networks to balance accuracy and latency and apply it to humanoid robots. The techniques of feature reuse and parameter compression in the framework improved the learning ability of the model and greatly reduced the parameters. Experiments showed that the proposed model can reduce tens of times the parameters at the expense of little accuracy.

Coil specimen was prepared by coating a copper wire with two varnish thin layers: the first was polyamideimide (PAI)/nanosilica (5 wt%) varnish and the second was anti-corona PAI/nanosilica (15 wt%) varnish. Insulation breakdown voltage was investigated under inverter surge condition at $20^{\circ}C$, $70^{\circ}C$, $100^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$, $250^{\circ}C$, respectively. The insulation lifetime of the two layered coil was tens of times longer than that of original PAI coil. And the insulation lifetime decreased with increasing ambient temperature because there was weak binding strength between copper and varnish layer.

To evaluate the oceanographic conditions for the artificial upwelling we measured vertical stratification coefficients, current speed distribution and grain size distribution of bottom sediment in the vicinity of Gukdo and Somaemuldo near Geojedo. There were a strong stratification between surface and bottom layers in summer, the stratification was weak from autumn to winter, and the water was well mixed during winter. In summer nutrient concentration of the bottom layer was 4 times higher than that of the surface layer. Underwater currents were strong in the bottom layer. We conclude that the oceanographic conditions in the area will meet the basic requirement for the construction of artificial upwelling.

To accomplish various and complex tasks by intelligent robots, improvement is needed not only in mechanical system architecture but also in control system architecture. Hybrid control architecture has been suggested as a mutually complementing architecture of the weak points of a deliberative and a reactive control. This paper addresses a control architecture of robots, and a behavior representation methodology. The suggested control architecture consists of three layers of deliberative, sequencing, and reactive as hybrid control architecture. Multi-layer behavior model is employed to represent desired tasks. 3D simulation will be conducted to verify the applicability of suggested control architecture and behavior representation method.

The texture of a 0.25mm dia high-carbon(0.73%) steel wire made by drawing the patented and brass coated 1.4mm wire through 22 dies with a die-angle of 12$^{\circ}$has been measured. The ideal fiber texture was obtained in the center layer, while the circular texture and the near fiber texture having {111}<110> and weak {112}<110> components were obtained in the intermediate and surface layers, respectively. The circular texture was approximated by {110}<110> plus {110}<114>. The texture could be predicted by the Taylor-Bishop-Hill theory coupled with FEM for deformation.

In order to investigate the effect of the interface on GMR, [NiFe(25 ${\AA}$)/Cu(24${\AA}$)]$_2$/Si thin film was epitaxially grown on HF-treated Si (001) substrate using a DC magnetron sputtering method. Typical GMR effects could be observed in epitaxial film with a weak antiferromagnetic exchange coupling while non epitaxial film showed unsaturated and broad MR curves probably due to inter-diffusion between NiFe and Cu layers. Ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) experiment showed two distinct absorption peaks in all films. Each peak was revealed to come from each NiFe layer with different magnetic property. In FMR measurement very clear interface in epitaxial films could be confirmed by a lower value of line width (ΔH) and higher M$\sub$s/ of epitaxial film than those of non epitaxial films, respectively.

To estimate absolute transports by advection in the southwestern East Sea (Japan Sea), an inverse method was applied to CTD data obtained in July 1993. The relative velocities are calculated using the thermal wind equation. The inverse model was formulated to obtain a reference velocity based on the mass conservation in each of four vertical layers within a region enclosed by hydrographic sections and the coastal boundary. The flow patterns in the surface layer are clockwise and anti-clockwise in the regions south and northwest of Ulleung Island, respectively, and a strong northward flow appears in between them. In the second layer, the flow fields are generally weak. The inverse calculation yields the southward flow along the coast, and this suggests that the subsurface low salinity water in the Ulleung Basin is supplied by the southward transport along the east coast of Korea.

In this study, a method for free vibration analysis of wall-frame systems built on weak soil is proposed. In the development of the method, the wall-frame system that constitutes the superstructure was modeled as flexural-shear beam. In the study, it is accepted that the soil layers are isotropic, homogeneous and elastic, and the waves are only vertical propagating shear waves. Based on this assumption, the soil layer below is modeled as an equivalent shear beam. Then the differential equation system that represented the behavior of the whole system was written for both regions in a separate way. Natural periods were obtained by solving the differential equations by employing boundary conditions. At the end of the study, two examples were solved and the suitability of the proposed method to the Finite Element Method was evaluated.
