In this paper, a flap valve micropump with an ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) actuator was designed, fabricated, and experimentally characterized. A multilayered IPMC based on Nafion/layered silicate and Nafion/silica nanocomposites was fabricated for the actuation section of the micropump. The IPMC diaphragm, a key element of the mircopump, was designed so that the IPMC actuator was supported by a flexible polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) structure at its perimeter. This design feature enabled a significantly high displacement of the IPMC diaphragm. The overall size of the micropump is $20{\times}20{\times}5$ ${mm}^3$. Water flow rates of up to 760 ${\mu}l$/min and a maximum backpressure of 1.5 kPa were recorded. A significant advantage of the proposed micropump is its low driven voltage from only 1-3 V. In addition, a simple and effective design, and an ease of manufacturing are other advantages of the present micropump.

In this paper, a dual-polarized multi-band multi-layer antenna for a vehicle, which operates in the GPS, bluetooth, and DSRC bands, was implemented. The antenna was designed as a multi-layer structure, and a FR4-epoxy substrate with =4.4 and =1.6mm was used. GPS and DSRC antennas have circular polarized characteristics, and a single probe feeding method was applied. Simulated results by Ansys HFSS v11 was compared with the measured ones. The size of the optimally designed antenna is $67mm{\times}67mm{\times}4.8mm$, -10dB bandwidth of the anatenna was measured to be 820MHz, 127MHz, and 862MHz in each band, and 3dB AR bandwidth of the antenna was simulated to be 19MHz and 110MHz in GPS and DSRC bands. The results confirmed that suggested system satisfies the system requirements.

Recently, the concern for displacement-based design has been increased as a performance based design method in which the deformation capacity of structure becomes so important. In this paper, a process is presented to accurately evaluate the deformation capacity of multistory RC frame structure. In the calculation of drift of frame, the deformation of beam and column as well as the deformation of anchorage and joint are considered. From the comparison between previous test and calculation results, the usefulness of the process is verified. The proposed process is also applied to the multiple story RC frame buildings(5, 10, 15 stories) designed to have strong column-weak beam. The results showed that the deformation capacity of the buildings could be not properly evaluated when deformations of anchorage and joint were ignored.

We investigated multi-layer perceptrons and supervised learning algorithms, and also examined how to model functional relationships between covariates and response variables using a package called neuralnet. The algorithm applied in this paper is characterized by continuous adjustment of the weights, which are parameters to minimize the error function based on the comparison between the actual and predicted values of the response variable. In the neuralnet package, the activation and error functions can be appropriately selected according to the given situation, and the remaining parameters can be set as default values. As a result of using the neuralnet package for the infertility data, we found that age has little influence on infertility among the four independent variables. In addition, the weight of the neural network takes various values from -751.6 to 7.25, and the intercepts of the first hidden layer are -92.6 and 7.25, and the weights for the covariates age, parity, induced, and spontaneous to the first hidden neuron are identified as 3.17, -5.20, -36.82, and -751.6.

전자제품의 고속화, 고집적화, 고성능이 요구되어짐에 따라 IC's 성능 향상을 통해 패키징 기술의 소형화를 필요로 하고 있어 소재나 칩 부품을 이용해 커패시터나 저항을 구현하여 내장시키는 임베디드 패시브 기술에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되어 지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 3D 패키징이 가능한 flexible 소재에 능, 수동 소자를 내장하기 위한 다층 flexible 기판 공정 기술에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 기판제작을 위해 flexible 소재에 미세 형성이 가능한 폴리머 필름을 접착하였고 flexible 위에 후막 저항체 패턴을 퍼|이스트를 이용하여 형성하였다. 또한, 능동소자 내장을 위해 test chip을 제작하여 플립칩 본더를 이용해 flexible 기판에 접합한 후에 bonding film을 이용한 build up 공정을 통해 via를 형성하고 무전해 도금 공정을 거쳐 전기적인 연결을 하였다. 위의 공정을 통해 앓고 가벼울 뿐만 아니라 자유롭게 구부러지는 특성을 갖고 있는 능, 수동 소자 내장형 flexible 기판의 변형에 따른 전기적 특성을 평가하였다.

In this paper, the dynamic response of a multi-story steel moment resisting frame equipped with viscoelastic dampers or lead rubber bearing type isolators subjected to seismic loads is investigated analytically. The objective of this study is to find the best location of viscoelastic dampers by the maximum stress method and maximum story drifts method from structure analysis. Also, a secondary objective of the study is to compare the member force, combined stress, and natural period of the structure retrofitted with viscoelastic dampers or lead rubber bearing type isolators to find effective vibration control method.

In this paper we propose a user adaptive post-processing method to improve the accuracy of speaker dependent, isolated word speech recognition, particularly for mobile devices. Our method considers the recognition result of the basic recognizer simply as a high-level speech feature and processes it further for correct recognition result. Our method learns correlation between the output of the basic recognizer and the correct final results and uses it to correct the erroneous output of the basic recognizer. A multi-layer perceptron model is built for each incorrectly recognized word with high frequency. As the result of experiments, we achieved a significant improvement of 41% in recognition accuracy (41% error correction rate).

Recent worldwide trends are to develop the environmental friendly chemicals and processes in order to reduce the global warming and climate change phenomena. One of similar efforts in paper industry is to substitute the petroleum-based SBR latex by starch-based biobinder. The disadvantage of biobinder found through laboratory scale study was the lower dry pick strength than SBR latex. The objective of this study is to confirm the substitutability of SBR latex with biobinder through mill trial. Although biobinder itself gave lower dry pick strength, it was found that the use of SBR latex and biobinder mixture (50:50) could improve the dry pick strength. The introduction of biobinder into coating binder system improved the opacity of coated paper. Optical properties (brightness and whiteness), ink trapping, print gloss and mottling level of paper coated with biobinder system were similar to those of SBR latex.

반사방지(Anti-Reflection, AR) 특성은 태양전지, LED, 광검출기 등의 광전소자와 디스플레이의 효율과 투과도를 향상시키기 위해 적용되고 있다. 또한 최근에 네비게이션, 스마트폰의 보급 증가로 인해 소형 디스플레이에 지문방지와 동시에 반사방지 기능을 갖는 필름이 사용되고 있다. 현재 적용되고 있는 반사방지 필름은 다층박막 코팅으로 형성된 필름[1]으로 생산단가와 박막의 내구성 및 신뢰성에 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위해 나노구조로 제작 되는 반사방지 필름에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다[2]. 나노구조로 형성된 반사방지 구조는 moth-eye 구조라고 하며, 기본 원리는 원뿔 형태를 형성된 나노 구조를 통해 공기와 나노구조 사이의 유효 굴절률을 서서히 변화시켜 반사를 줄이는 것이다. 그러므로 moth-eye 나노구조는 파장 이하의 pitch와 파장 크기의 높이를 갖도록 구조가 제작되어야 한다[3]. Photo-lithography[4], e-beam lithography[5], interference lithography[6], dip-pen nanolithography[7], hybrid nano-patterning lithography[8] 등 여러 가지 방법으로 나노 구조를 제작하고 있으나, 네비게이션이나 스마트폰 등에 적용될 수 있는 대면적으로 제작하기 위해서는 roll-to-roll printing과 같은 대면적 공정을 이용하여 제작하는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 원통형 알루미늄 rod에 양극산화를 통해 다공성 AAO(anode aluminium oxide) template를 제작하고, roll-to-roll printing 기술을 사용하여 moth-eye 나노구조를 갖는 반사방지 필름을 제작하는 것에 대해 기술하였다.
