파력발전은 파랑에너지를 이용하여 유용한 에너지를 얻어내는 것인데, 본 논문에서는 그 가운데 진동수주 (Oscillating Water Column)형을 연구 대상으로 취하였다. 이는 외해에서의 파랑에너지를 공기실에 유입 집중시켜 공기실 내 수면의 승강운동을 증폭시키고 이로 인해 발생한 공기실 내의 공기 흐름을 터빈의 구동력으로 사용하는 것을 말한다. 적지 선정과정에서 채택된 곳의 설계파고를 바탕으로 원하는 정격출력인 500kW를 얻어낼 수 있도록 유량과 임펄스 터빈의 최적 직경을 산출하고자 하였는데 개념설계된 파력발전장치의 덕트가 쌍동형 형태를 취하고 있으므로 한 터빈당 250kW급을 목표 발전용량으로 하였다. 지난 연구를 통해서 기 작성된 터빈 성능도표를 활용하여, 본 연구에서는 1차적으로 임펄스 터빈의 개략적인 직경 및 유량을 구하고, 터빈의 자기 기동 특성을 고려하여 최종적인 형상을 구체적으로 도출하였다.

기존의 초소형 렌즈모듈들은 초점 거리 가변을 위한 구동장치가 필요하여 소형화 한계, 큰 전력소모, 부품의 기계적 결함 등 해결해야 할 부가적인 문제점들이 존재하였다. 액체렌즈는 이러한 문제를 해결할 수 있는 유력한 기술로 주목받고 있으며, 특히 부가적인 구동 장치가 필요없고 비교적 간단한 원리로 렌즈 곡률을 조절할 수 있는 일렉트로웨팅 기반의 액체렌즈는 초점 거리 조절 및 줌 조절이 필요한 휴대폰, 캡슐 내시경 등에 적용이 가능하다. 그러나 기존의 일렉트로웨팅 기반의 액체렌즈는 렌즈 캐비티의 크기에서 큰 단점이 있으며, 렌즈모듈구성 시에도 소형화하는데 한계가 존재하였다. 본 연구에서는 렌즈 캐비티를 MEMS 기술을 이용하여 실리콘 기판 상에 제작함으로써 구동회로의 집적이 가능한 액체렌즈를 제작하였다.

Twenty-three patients underwent operations to repair a congenital heart disease through right anterolateral thoracotomy(RALT) between December 1989 and December 1996. Defects repaired 22 atrial septum(13 ostium secundum;3 lower sepal defect;4 posterior septal defect; 1 sinus venosus;1 ostium primum) and 1 ventricular septal defect. There was no operative mortality or late morbidity directly related to RALT. The RALT incision is a safe and effective me hod to a median sternotomy in selective patients(especicially female). The cosmetic results are very good during the follow up periods.

B. M. Schein([1]) considered systems of the form (${\Phi}$; ${\circ}$,-), where ${\Phi}$ is a set of functions closed under the composition "${\circ}$" of functions and the set theoretic subtraction "-". In this structure, (${\Phi}$; ${\circ}$) is a function semigroup and (${\Phi}$;-) is a subtraction algebra in the sense of [1]. He proved that every subtraction semigroup is isomorphic to a difference semigroup of invertible functions. Also this structure is closely related to the mathematical logic, Boolean algebra, Bck-algera, etc. In this paper, we define the near subtraction semigroup as a generalization of the subtraction semigroup, and define the notions of strong for it, and then we will search the general properties of this structure, the properties of ideals, and the application of it.

CA is cost-effective to generate pseudorandom patterns than LFSR. Based on the effectiveness of a CA based pseudorandom pattern generator, CA have been employed successfully in several applications. Especially Nongroup CA is applied to efficient hash function generation, cryptography and image compression. In this paper we analyze the properties of TPNCA and by using basic paths in the 0-tree of a linear TPNCA we analyze the structure of the state-transition graph. Also by showing the structure of the complemented CA which have the acyclic state of the 0-tree as the complement vector is isomorphic to the structure of the original TPNCA, we reduce the time in analyzing the CA-states.

Fingerprinting scheme supports the copyright protection to track redistributors of digital content using cryptographic techniques. Fingerprinting schemes should guarantee buyer's anonymity and asymmetry for their privacy. Most of known fingerprinting schemes adopt public-key cryptosystems to achieve asymmetry and discrete logarithm problem or graph isomorphism problem to achieve anonymity. However, these schemes are not suited in mobile environment because of the drawbacks of requiring high computational complexity. In this paper, we propose an efficient fingerprinting scheme for mobile environment to provide not only asymmetry of the protocol but also transaction anonymity of the buyer. By employing symmetric encryption to encrypt the digital content and adopting agent to perform the protocols, the efficiency of the proposed scheme is improved.

Oral appliances are a primary treatment option for snoring and mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and are considered as an alternative for patients with severe OSA who have failed continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or upper airway surgery. But it is true that OAs have varying degrees of effectiveness depending on different oral appliances and the efficacy of OAs are established in some but not all patients. New oral appliance, which is one of Adjustable Anterior Positioners, was developed by Dept of Oral Medicine, Dental School, Dankook University. This is a report for treating severe OSA patient with a failure of previous uvulopalatopharyngoplasty using a new Adjustable Anterior Positioner, followed by significant success of controlling OSA.

The entry compression wave, which forms at the entrance of a high-speed railway tunnel, is closely related to the pressure transients in the train/tunnel systems as well as an impulsive noise appearing at the exit of the tunnel. In order to alleviate such undesirable phenomena, some control strategies have been applied to the compression wave propagating inside the tunnel. The objective of the current work is to investigate the effect of tunnel entrance hoods on the entry compression wave at the vicinity of the tunnel entrance. Three types of entrance hoods were tested by the numerical method using the characteristics of method for a wide range of train speeds. The results show that the maximum pressure gradient of compression wave can be considerably reduced by the tunnel entrance hood. Optimum hood shape necessary to reduce the pressure transients and impulsive noise was found to be of an abrupt type hood with its cross-sectional area 2.5 times the tunnel area. It is believed that the current results are highly useful in predicting the effects of entrance hoods and in choosing the shape of proper hood.

The purpose of this study is to design and practice teaching and learning method for routing algorithm among computer science principle which is difficult to be taught to elementary school students and understood by students. And we find out whether elementary school students can understand those learning contents. Intellectual area was assessed through equivalent test paper before and after the test and emotional area was assessed through students' impressions after class. The test showed that routing algorithm could be taught to children. Therefore, this study presents the learnability of routing algorithm as a learning element of elementary school computer education.

With the increasing number of high-rise and large-scale buildings, modern buildings are becoming intelligent, and are incurring high construction costs and requiring careful maintenance. Maintenance works for high-rise buildings significantly depend on human labor, unlike other construction processes that are gradually being automated. The resulting accidents may produce very high social and economic losses. To address this problem, herein, this paper proposes robotic building maintenance system using multi-robot concept, in specific, cleaning a building facade which is directly subjected to minimize human labor; that improves the process efficiency and economic feasibility. The sensor for detecting contamination of building's outer-wall glass is proposed; Kalman filter was used for estimating robots' status with the contamination of the window glass. Task allocation of the sensor based multi-robots for an effective way of task execution is introduced and the feasibility was verified through the simulations.
