One of the most important properties of the IC substrate is that it should be uniform over large areas. Among the various physical approaches of wafer defect characterization, special attention is to be payed to the infrared techniques of inspection. In particular, a high spatial resolution, near infrared absorption method has been adopted to directly observe defects in semi-insulating GaAs. This technique, which relies on the mapping of infrared transmission, is both rapid and non-destructive. This method demonstrates in a direct way that the infrared images of GaAs crystals arise from defect absorption process. A new interpretation is presented for the observed reversal of contrast in the infrared absorption of nonuniformly distributed deep centers, related to EL2, in semi-insulating GaAs. The low temperature photoquenching experiment has demonstrated in a direct way that the contrast inverse images of GaAs wafers arise from both absorption and scattering mechanisms rather than charge re-distribution or local variation of bandgap.

This paper describes a research result of a external shape optimization study to maximize the range of the guided missile with canards and tailfins in atmospheric flight. For this purpose, the external shape optimization program which can enhance the range of a missile was developed, incorporated with the trajectory analysis and the optimization technique. In the trajectory analysis part, Missile DATCOM which utilizes the semi-empirical method was directly connected to the trajectory code to supply the aerodynamic coefficients efficiently at every time step. In the gliding flight trajectory after apogee, a maximum $C_L/C_D$ trim condition calculation module was attached under the assumption of the missile continuously flying at maximum $C_L/C_D$ condition. In the optimization part, a Response Surface Method(RSM) was adopted to reduce the computing time.

In the natural world, most materials such as skin, marble and cloth are translucent. Their appearance is smooth and soft compared with metals or mirrors. In this paper, we propose a new GPU based hierarchical rendering technique for translucent materials, based on the dipole diffusion approximation, at interactive rates. Information of incident light, position, normal, and irradiance, on the surfaces are stored into 2D textures by rendering from a primary light view. Huge numbers of pixel photons are clustered into quad-tree image pyramids. Each pixel, we select clusters (sets of photons), and then we approximate multiple subsurface scattering term with the clusters. We also introduce a novel hierarchical screen-space interpolation technique by exploiting spatial coherence with early-z culling on the GPU. We also build image pyramids of the screen using mipmap and pixel shader. Each pixel of the pyramids is stores position, normal and spatial similarity of children pixels. If a pixel's the similarity is high, we render the pixel and interpolate the pixel to multiple pixels. Result images show that our method can interactively render deformable translucent objects by approximating hundreds of thousand photons with only hundreds clusters without any preprocessing. We use an image-space approach for entire process on the GPU, thus our method is less dependent to scene complexity.

무선 센서 네트워크에서는 에너지 제약이라는 특징 때문에 에너지 효율과 관련된 많은 연구가 진행되고 있지만 대부분의 연구는 에너지를 보존하기 위해 센서노드의 작업을 줄이는 소극적인 방식을 취한다. 이에 반해 파워 컨트롤 기법은 전송 파워를 조절하여 불필요한 에너지 소모를 줄이는 적극적인 방식이다. 본 논문에서는 무선 센서 네트워크의 클러스터 기반 라우팅 프로토콜인 LEACH(Low-Energy Adaptive Clustering Hierarchy)에 파워 컨트롤 기법을 적용한 LEACH-PC(LEACH-Power Control)를 제안하였다. LEACH-PC는 클러스터 구성에 사용한 RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indicator) 정보를 이용하여 클러스터 내부 통신 단계에서 파워 컨트롤을 수행한다. LEACH-PC는 에너지 효율성 측면에서 기존의 LEACH 보다 좋은 성능을 보임을 실험을 통해 확인할 수 있었다.

Most of the important visual information is presented to driver through the display panel that is related to the vehicle. If display panel is designed with the c consideration of driver's visibility, drivers can get broad visual field and visual I information related to vehicle promptly and exactly during driving situation. Therefore display panel has direct relationship with the driver's task performance and it can be considered as an important device that affects the driver-automotive interaction. Many r researches about shape, characteristic and color of display panel have been performed, but not sufficient in this country Nowadays most of vehicles has an analog type display. but its shape and arrangement a are various without any definite standards about position. Therefore. experiments using evaluation tool (VISVEC System) were conducted to inquire the driver's preference on the major objects arrangement of display panel (speedometer. tachometer. fuel meter. and t thermometer) and to ascertain the factors that have an effect on drivers according to the objects position of the display panel The experiment results showed that there was no correlation between the arrangement c characteristics preferred by subjects and the cognitive accuracy but the cognition of V visual information more easy when the each major object has its area.

본 논문에서는 삼각형 메쉬(triangular mesh)로 이루어진 3차원 모델의 연결 정보(connectivity data)와 형상 정보(geometry data)를 삼각형 팬(triangle fan) 구조에 기반하여 효율적으로 압축하는 부호화 기법을 제안한다. 첫째로, 연결 정보의 무손실 부호화로 꼭지점 차수 왜곡(vertex degree warping) 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 알고리듬이 연결 정보와 형상 정보를 분리하여 부호화하는데 반해 제안하는 알고리듬은 연결 정보를 부호화하는데 형상 정보를 이용하여 압축 효율을 높인다. 둘째로, 형상 정보를 압축하기 위해 이중 평행사변형 예측(dual parallelogram prediction) 기법을 제안한다. 삼각형 팬 구조를 이용함으로써 기존의 삼각형 스트립(triangle strip) 기반의 알고리듬보다 정확한 형상 예측이 가능하고, 예측 오차가 작아지게 된다. 다양한 3차원 메쉬 모델에 대한 모의 실험을 통하여 제안하는 알고리듬이 기존의 알고리듬보다 우수한 압축 성능을 나타냄을 확인하다.

Over the last several years, studies on spatial index have increased in proportion to the increase in the spatial data. Most of these studies, however were on the indices based on R-tree by adding or changing some options, and there are a few studies on how to increase the search performance of the spatial data by compressing an MBR. This study was conducted in order to propose a new MBR compression scheme, SA(Semi-Approximation). The basic idea of this paper is the compression of MBRs in a spatial index. Since SA decreases the keys of MBRs, the enlargements of QMBR in half and increases the utilization of nodes, the SA heightens the overall search performance. The study analyzes mathematically the number of node accesses in a 2D space and evaluates the performance of the SA using the real data on location information. The results show that the proposed scheme has increased performance, higher than that of the pre-established schemes on compression of MBR.

Course correction munition is a smart projectile which improves its accuracy by the control mechanism equipped in the fuze section with canard. In this paper, various aerodynamic configurations of the fuze section were analysed by utilizing a semi-empirical method and a CFD method. A final canard configuration showing the least drag was then determined. During the CFD simulation, it was found that the k-${\omega}$ SST turbulence model combined with O-type grid base is suitable for the prediction of the base drag. Finally, the aerodynamic characteristics of the smart munition and the change of drag due to the canard installation were analysed.

In this paper, the flow performance and aero-acoustic noise generated by the target centrifugal fan system were investigated numerically and experimentally. Also, the numerical method for Computational Aero-Acoustics were evaluated by comparing each method. To analyze the performance of the centrifugal fan experimentally, the acoustic power level was measured in the semi-anechoic chamber using microphones, and the active frequency range for the noise performance was identified and that frequency range was applied for Computational Aero-Acoustics (CAA) techniques as sampling frequency. Then, Navier-Stokes equation and the Ffowcs Williams&Hawking equations were used to analyze the flow and sound power numerically, respectively, and a virtual acoustic radiation plane was designed and used for the implementation of the sound field. The accuracy and numerical characteristics of the numerical methods were validated by comparing simulated acoustic power levels with acoustic power levels measured.
