The methods of providing available bandwidth adaptively using feedback to maximize the utilization of network as well as the quality of service have been the focus of recent research activities for ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode). This study has been extended from the point-to-point connection to a point-to-multipoint environment as the number of applications requiring multicast service increases. It is known that the effectiveness of feedback based congestion control scheme diminishes as propagation delay increases. Especially for a multicast connection consisting of various paths and destinations with different performance and congestion status, the problem of unfairness due to different propagation delays may occur. The degree of such unfairness may change depending on various aspects of congestion control schemes. These has been, however, relatively little study on these problems. In this paper, we present how various aspects of control schemes-length of the interval between feedback generations, point of time to coalesce feedback cells from child paths, decreasing factor of source rate in case of congestion-affect the degree of unfairness. Simulation results show that degree of unfairness changes according to when the feedback coalescing happens. Expecially it is shown that the effect of feedback coalescing time to the degree of unfairness is more significant for the smaller feedback interval. It is also found that as the source rate decreasing factor becomes larger the average ACR(Allowed Cell Rate) at the source gets lower and the degree of unfairness grow larger.

양자점 감응형 태양전지는 가시광 영역을 흡수, 이용할 수 있는 광감응 물질로 무기물 양자점을 사용하며, 이 경우 나노미터 크기의 무기물 양자점으로 인한 양자제한 효과 (quantum confinement effect)에 의해 양자점의 사이즈 조절 만으로 밴드갭을 조절할 수 있어 광학적 특성 조절이 용이하며, 하나의 광자를 흡수하여 두개 이상의 전자-정공쌍을 만들 수 있는 (multiple exciton generation) 가능성이 있어 기존 태양전지가 가지는 이론적 한계효율(Shockley-Queisser limit)을 뛰어넘을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 양자점 및 염료 감응형 태양전지분야에서 가장 많이 사용되고 있는 TiO2 다공성 필름이 아닌, ZnO 나노선 구조를 이용하여 양자점 감응형 태양전지를 제작하였다. ZnO의 경우 TiO2보다 높은 전자이동도를 가지며, 나노선 구조가 바닥전극까지 수직 연결된 1차원의 전자전달경로를 제공하여 결과적으로 광전자 포집에 유리하다. 또한, CdS, CdSe 양자점을 동시에 사용하여 광흡수 범위를 가시광 전 영역으로 확장하였으며, 계단형 밴드구조를 통해 광전자-정공 분리 및 포집을 용이하게 하였다. 더 나아가 전해질의 조성, 나노선의 길이 등 다양한 부분을 조절하면서 각 변수가 소자의 효율에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다.

This study deals with the stress-strain-strain rate behaviour of overconsolidated clay. Consolidated-drained stress path tests were performed on the stress-time dependent condition. Stress history consists of rotation angle of stress path, overconsolidation ratio, and magnitude of length of recent stress path. Time history includes loading rate of recent and current stress path. Test results show that all influence factors have an increasing strain rate with time, and the strain rate varies with the change of the rotation angle of stress path. With the increase of overconsolidation ratio and loading rate of current stress path, the strain rate also increases. For the stress history, correlation between stress-strain and strain rate is indicated but the time history is not.

An AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) is an unmanned underwater vessel to investigate sea environments and deep sea resource. To be completely autonomous, AUV must have the ability to home and dock to the launcher. In this paper, we consider a class of homing trajectory planning problem for an AUV with kinematic and tactical constraints in horizontal plane. Since the AUV under consideration has underactuated characteristics, trajectory for this kind of AUV must be designed considering the underactuated characteristics. Otherwise, the AUV cannot follow the trajectory. Proposed homing trajectory panning method that called VGM (Virtual Goal Method) based on visibility graph takes the underactated characteristics into consideration. And it guarantees shortest collision free trajectory. For tracking control, we propose a PD controller by simple guidance law. Finally, we validate the trajectory planning algorithm and tracking controller by numerical simulation and ocean engineering basin experiment in KORDI.

본 연구에서는 계산을 통해 나온 Sn-Ag-Cu 삼원계 공정점(Sn-3.7Ag-0.9Cu)을 바탕으로 그 근처의 응고경로가 다른 6가지 조성(Sn-4.6Ag-0.4Cu, Sn-4.9Ag-1.0Cu, Sn-3.9Ag-1.3Cu, Sn-2.2Ag-1.2Cu, Sn-2Ag-0.7Cu, Sn-2.7Ag-0.3Cu)에 대한 솔더합금의 미세조직을 관찰하였다. 응고경로는 $L\;\rightarrow\;L+Primary\;\rightarrow\;L+Primary+Secondary\;\rightarrow\;Ternary\;Eutectic+Primary+Secondary$로 되며 6가지 경우를 예상할 수 있다 솔더합금의 미세조직은 느린 냉각으로 인하여 빠른 냉각, 보통 냉각에 비해 상대적으로 커다란 $\beta-Sn$ dendrite를 보였고 $Ag_3Sn,\;Cu_6Sn_5$과는 다르게 $\beta-Sn$는 약 $30^{\circ}C$의 과냉(DSC분석)이 존재하게 되어 Sn-4.6Ag-0.4Cu의 경우에는 $Ag_3Sn$상이, Sn-2.2Ag-1.2Cu의 경우에는 $Cu_6Sn_5$가 과대성장을 하였다. 솔더의 기계적 특성을 살펴보고자 Cu 기판위에서 각 조성의 솔더볼을 솔더링한 후 다양한 냉각 속도를 적용하여 reflow 솔더링을 하고 솔더/기판 접합에 대한 전단 강도 시험을 실시했다. 냉각 속도가 빠를수록 $\beta-Sn$의 dendrite가 미세해져서 높은 전단 강도를 보였고 6가지 조성의 솔더볼중 공정조직 분율이 낮은 Sn-2Ag-0.7Cu 조성의 경우에서 낮은 전단 강도가 나타났다.

The kinematic synthesis deals with the systematic design of mechanisms for a given performance. The area of synthesis may be grouped into two categories to determine the type and to size the dimensions of a mechanism for a specified task. In this paper, using a database of mechanisms a designer can determine the type of mechanism conveniently and design equations are automatically generated for a given input performance. The solving method of design equations utilizes an optimization routine to obtain roots effectively. The linkages of 4, 6, and 8bars with revolute joints are considered in this study but may be extended to linkages of more bars.

기능성 다당체는 자연계에 두루 존재하며 특히 많은 천연소재 유래 다당체의 경우 거의 부작용없이 광범위한 면역조절 기능을 나타내는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 이들 다당체의 면역증진 기능성은 다양한 경로와 타켓을 대상으로 나타나고 있으며 각 다당체의 기능성 차이는 그들에 구조적 차이에 기인한 것으로 판단되고 있다. BRM의 일종으로 천연소재 유래 다당체는 면역기관이나 T와 B 림프구, 대식세포, NK cell, LAK 세포 및 수지상 세포 등 면역세포의 활성화, 사이토카인 및 항체의 생성, 적혈구의 면역기능에 영향을 미쳐 생체방어 기능, 즉 면역기능을 증진시켜 주는 것으로 보고 되었다. 또한 lentinan, PSK, PSP, PUPS 등과 같이 이미 잘 알려진 다당체의 경우, 이들 다당체가 지닌 품질 안정성, 정확한 효능, 낮은 독성 및 부작용 등을 근간으로 다양한 항암치료제의 보조제로서 활용가능성도 높아지고 있다. 반면 다당체를 이용한 기능성 구명 연구에서는 몇 가지 제한이 있는 것도 사실이다. 첫째로 비교가능한 적절한 기능성 다당체의 비교 표준이 부재하다는 것이며 두 번째로는 대부분의 다당체 관련 연구가 보다 철저한 구조적, 정성적 연구결과 없이 주로 추출물을 이용한 연구로 진행되어 정확한 분자수준에서의 면역조절 기전을 구명하기 어렵다는 점이다. 마지막으로 정확한 기능 구명을 위한 신호전달경로 관련 연구, 수용체 관련연구 및 임상연구 등이 부족하다는 점이다. 따라서 향후 다당체를 이용한 면역력 증진 등 기능성 구명연구의 활성화를 위해서는 보다 정확한 기능성 다당 분획의 구조분석 및 동정 연구가 수행되어야 할 것이며 이는 분자 수준의 기능성을 이해하는데 주요한 요인이 될 것으로 판단되었다.

In both deteministic user Optimal Traffic Assignment Model (UOTAM) and stochastic UOTAM, travel time, which is a major ccriterion for traffic loading over transportation network, is defined by the sum of link travel time and turn delay at intersections. In this assignment method, drivers actual route perception processes and choice behaviors, which can become main explanatory factors, are not sufficiently considered: therefore may result in biased traffic loading. Even though there have been some efforts in Stochastic UOTAM for reflecting drivers' route perception cost by assuming cumulative distribution function of link travel time, it has not been fundamental fruitions, but some trials based on the unreasonable assumptions of Probit model of truncated travel time distribution function and Logit model of independency of inter-link congestion. The critical reason why deterministic UOTAM have not been able to reflect route perception cost is that the route perception cost has each different value according to each origin, destination, and path connection the origin and destination. Therefore in order to find the optimum route between OD pair, route enumeration problem that all routes connecting an OD pair must be compared is encountered, and it is the critical reason causing computational failure because uncountable number of path may be enumerated as the scale of transportation network become bigger. The purpose of this study is to propose a method to enable UOTAM to reflect route perception cost without route enumeration between an O-D pair. For this purpose, this study defines a link as a least definition of path. Thus since each link can be treated as a path, in two links searching process of the link label based optimum path algorithm, the route enumeration between OD pair can be reduced the scale of finding optimum path to all links. The computational burden of this method is no more than link label based optimum path algorithm. Each different perception cost is embedded as a quantitative value generated by comparing the sub-path from the origin to the searching link and the searched link.

This study investigated the effects of stress and time history of overconsolidated clayey soils on pore pressure parameter, A. Laboratory tests were carried out under the conditions of both varying stress and time history. The stress history is classified into (i) rotation angle of stress path, (ii) overconsolidation ratio, and (iii) magnitude of length of recent stress path. The time history is divided into (i) loading rate of recent stress path and (ii) rest time. Pore pressure parameters are different both in the magnitude and trend with the rotation angle, depending on the magnitude of overconsolidation ratio but not in a trend. In addition, the pore pressure parameters have no effects on the magnitude of length of recent stress path except the level of initially small strain, while loading rates of recent stress path have effects on it. Finally, the pore pressure parameters of overconsolidated clays increase with the existence of the rest time, until either the deviator stress exceeds 70 kPa or the strain up to 0.1%.

Active sonar has been commonly used to detect targets existing in the shallow water. When a signal is transmitted and returned back from a target, it has been distorted by various properties of acoustic channel such as multipath arrivals, scattering from rough sea surface and ocean bottom, and refraction by sound speed structure, which makes target detection difficult. It is therefore necessary to consider these channel properties in the target signal simulation in operational performance system of active sonar. In this paper, a monostatic active sonar system is considered, and the target echo, reverberation, and ambient noise are individually simulated as a function of time, and finally summed to simulate a total received signal. A 3-dimensional highlight model, which can reflect the target features including the shape, position, and azimuthal and elevation angles, has been applied to each multipath pair between source and target to simulate the target echo signal. The results are finally compared to those obtained by the algorithm in which only direct path is considered in target signal simulation.
