Steady-state anodic and cathodic polarization curves were developed for the Al electrode in 60 mole %$AlCl_3$-40 mole % NaCl at $180^{\circ}C$$453^{\circ}K$). Ohmic resistance contributed substantially to the anodic polarization at current densities greater than 50 mA/$CM^2$ even with capillary tip placed close to the electrode. This could not be rationalized from the resistivity of the melt, which would lead to a much smaller polarization. It was therefore concluded that a layer of high resistance $AlCl_3$ (or $AlCl_3$-rich melt) formed close to the anode surface. From the IR-corrected anodic Tafel and Allen-Hickling plots an apparent anodic charge-transfer coefficient of ${\alpha}_a$ = (2.3 RT/F)(d log i/d${\eta}$) = $1.5{\pm}0.25$ was obtained. At cathodic current densities greater than approximately 30 mA/$cm^2$, slow ion diffusion and dendrite growth both interfered with the measurement of kinetic parameters.

This paper presents high speed position controller using stepping motor. The proposed position controller has close loop and open loop mode. In the high speed region, torque angle which is controlled by PI controller and memory based look-up table, is used to keep the reference position. The memory based look-up table produces a torque angle according to motor speed, and the PI controller can compensate the torque angle error. So, the fast dynamic response can be expected in the same position error. The open loop control mode which is divided by 3-modes control the actual position in the low speed and small position error. Each open loop modes are designed to reduce position error and dynamic brake in the stop command. The proposed position control scheme is verified by the practical stepping motor.

The transesterification of dimethyl terephthalate(DMT) with ethylene glycol(EG) was kinetically investigated in the temperature range from 190 to $240^{\circ}C$ with and without a zinc acetate(Zn) as a catalyst. The degree of reaction was calculated by the measurement of the quantity of methanol which distilled from the reaction vessel. This distillation made corrections of reactant and catalyst concentrations necessary. The effects of catalyst concentration, molar ratio of DMT and EG, types of metal compounds, and temperature on kinetics were studied. The catalytic activity of various metal compounds was excellent, in order of Ti, Zn, Sn, and Sb. Also the order of activation energy was Zn>Ti>Sn>Sb.

A procedure for computing total suspended sediment load is presented based on a single point-integrated sample, a power velocity distribution, and Laursen's sediment concentration distribution equation. The procedure was tested with field data from the Rio Grande River. Computed concentrations agreed well with depth-integrated measurements corrected for unmeasured load using nominal values of $\beta$, $\kappa$ and w. Even better agreement was obtained when site-specific data were used to define the x and z exponents of the velocity and concentration distributions. The difference between total suspended load computed using a single measurement and this procedure and conventional computations based on depthintegrated measurements is well within sampling error. There are major advantages in estimating total suspended load using a single time-integrated suspended-sediment point sample. Less field time is required; sampling costs are greatly reduced; and sampling can be more frequent and better timed to measure the changing sediment load. Single-point sampling makes automatic sampling procedures more feasible.

Due to explosive increase of internet usage, broadband data transmission using optical fibers is broadly used. In order to decrease distortion during long distance transmission, the optical signal need to be restored, typically, by converting the optical signal into the electrical signal. The optical signal is converted into the electrical signal using a photo-diode, and then a clock-and-recovery (CDR) circuit is used to recover the clock and retime the data. In this study, a clock-and-data recovery circuit has been designed using a standard 1.8 V $0.18\;{\mu}m$ CMOS process. With this CDR circuit, the improved phase detector and charge pump have been utilized. Also, by using a ring oscillator, the CDR circuit can recover clock and data from broadband multi-rate data ranging between 750 Mb/s and 2.85 Gb/s.

The mechanical properties of stone structures are generally characterized according to the strength of the stone used. An ultrasonic velocity method that does not damage cultural heritages is used to measure the strength of stone. However, there is no correction involved for surface roughness and thickness of the stone in the ultrasonic method currently used. In addition, a contact agent such as grease can cause contamination on the surface of a cultural heritage. Accordingly, this study suggests an indirect method of strength estimation formula for stone structures based on the surface roughness of the structure, its thickness, and the type of contact agent. (1) Rock strength estimation formula using ultrasonic velocity method of dabbed finish : $f_{su}=30.51\;Vp^{0.82}(R^2=95)$ (2) Rock strength estimation formula using ultrasonic velocity method of harsh finish : $f_{su}=61.52\;Vp^{0.32}(R^2=92)$.

지금까지 해외의 여러 달 궤도선에서 달의 영상을 다양한 방법으로 관측한 것에서 알 수 있듯이 영상 관측은 달 탐사에서 중요한 부분이다. 특히 그 중에서 입체 영사기(Stereo Imager)는 달의 3차원적 영상을 관측하여 달 표면의 구조를 파악할 수 있고 분광 카메라(Hyperspectral Camera)는 달 표면을 이루고 있는 물질을 분광 정보를 통해서 알아낼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라가 2020년경 독자적인 달 궤도선을 계획하고 있는 것에 발맞추어 이 두 관측 장비를 설계해 보았다. 본 연구에서 설계한 탑재체는 하나의 광학계를 이용해 가시광 영역에서 동시에 입체 영상과 분광 영상을 얻을 수 있는 장치이며, 달 표면에서의 궤도선의 속도와 저장 가능한 정보의 양을 고려하여 100 km의 고도에서 속도를 1.6 km/s로 가정할 때 interline CCD가 17.5 m의 공간 분해능을 갖기 위해 92 frame/s 이상의 frame rate로 관측을 수행할 수 있게 하였다. 특히 분광 카메라는 wedge filter를 사용하여 광학계의 부담을 줄였으며 검출기로는 interline CCD를 사용하여 channel 수를 조절할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 달 표면을 구성하는 입자의 크기에 대한 정보를 얻을 수 있는 편광판도 설치 하였다. 시험 모델의 문제점을 분석하여 새롭게 개선된 탑재체를 설계하여 개발하였다. 렌즈를 수정해 vignetting과 왜곡 현상을 보정하였고 전체 무게를 1.5 kg으로 줄여서 시험 모델보다 30% 이상 줄일 수 있었다. 파장 분해능은 20nm로 시험모델보다 더 개선된 분해능을 얻을 수 있었다. 출력 효율의 증대를 위해 power board의 수정을 수행하였다.

Inertial Navigation System has been used extensively to determine the position, velocity and attitude of the body. An INS is very expensive, however, heavy, power intensive, requires long setting times and the accuracy of the system is degraded as time passed due to the accumulated error. Global Positioning System(GPS) receivers can compensate for the Inertial Navigation System with the ability to provide both absolute position and attitude. This study describes a method to improve both the accuracy of a body positioning and the precision of an attitude determination using GPS antenna array. Existing attitude determination methods using low-cost GPS receivers focused on the relative vectors between the master and the slave antennas. Then the positioning of the master antenna is determined in meter-level because the single point positioning with pseudorange measurements is used. To obtain a better positioning accuracy of the body in this research, a wireless internet is used as an alternative data link for the real-time differential corrections and dual-frequency GPS receivers which is expected to be inexpensive was used. The numerical results show that this system has the centimeter level accuracy in positioning and the degree level accuracy in attitude.

In this study, study on the internal ballistic analysis method for single-chamber dual-thrust rocket motors meeting a dual-thrust profile requirement by tailoring the grain burning area is presented. The analysis method, which can acquire variables required for the performance prediction, considering gradual change of burning rate correction factor and specific impulse in the transition phase, is proposed. Improvements compared to the analysis method in the previous study, which do not consider change in the transition phase, are verified through comparison between the newly proposed method and the method in the previous study. Internal ballistic variables are obtained for four different ground firing test conditions using the proposed method, and the performance prediction for each condition is conducted using these variables. These prediction results and the ground test data are in good agreement, so it is confirmed that the performance prediction of dual-thrust motors with same design geometries based on the proposed analysis method is available.

The conventional communication method using mud flow pressure waves has a speed of 1-2 bps, so it takes a long time to communicate, making real-time control impossible. Although the sound wave communication method for improving the communication speed by 10 times or more has been commercialized, its use is limited due to its high price and there are not many application cases. In this study, the simulator corresponding to the facility was developed to develop performance similar to the actual test results. For simulating sound wave communication through a drill pipe, we proposed a governing equation that can simulate friction damping by mud and developed a numerical analysis model. The attenuation factor was corrected by comparing it with the attenuation rate of sound wave energy at the drilling site. The developed numerical analysis model was applied to the QPSK modulation type communication algorithm to confirm the excellent performance of the communication error rate of 0.04% in the ground. This is the communication performance under the condition that noise has not been mixed yet, and in order to apply it, the technology of reproducing the actual noise signal for mixing by securing the field noise data was established.
