This paper shows the feasibility of using carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite materials for manufacturing automotive coil springs. For achieving weight reduction by replacing steel with composite materials, it is essential to optimize the material parameters and design variables of the coil spring. First, the shear modulus of a CFRP beam model, which has $45^{\circ}$ ply angles for maximum torsional stiffness, was calculated and compared with the test results. The diameter of the composite spring was predicted to be 17.5 mm for ensuring a spring rate equal to that when using steel material. Finally, a finite element model of the composite coil spring with $45^{\circ}$ ply angles and 17.5 mm wire diameter was constructed and analyzed for obtaining the static spring rate, which was then compared with experimental results.

유도결합 플라즈마를 이용한 식각 장치에서 플라즈마 균일도 향상에 대한 수많은 연구가 이뤄지고 있다. 안테나의 디자인, 인가 전력과 주파수, 안테나와 기판간의 거리, 기판과 챔버 외벽간의 거리 등 다양한 변수들이 변화되어 왔다. 또한, 최근에는 식각 균일도뿐만 아니라 식각 속도 향상에도 많은 관심이 모아지면서 유동에 영향을 주는 GDP 구조가 다시 중요해지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 300 mm 식각장치를 형상화하고, GDP의 구조와 유량비에 따라 플라즈마의 균일도에 어떻게 영향을 끼지는지 사용 유체역학 전산모사 프로그램인 CFD-ACE+를 이용하여 예측해 보았다. 안테나는 2중 직렬방식으로 안쪽과 바깥쪽의 안테나에 각기 다른 전력을 인가 할 수 있는 구조를 사용했으며, 압력은 10에서 60 mTorr까지 변화시켰다. GDP의 구조는 안쪽 입구와 바깥쪽 입구가 있으며 역시 따로 유량을 조절할 수 있도록 설계하였다. 안쪽 입구는 수직방향을 향하고 있으며, 바깥쪽 입구는 90도 이내의 각을 갖도록 꺾여 있는 것과 수평방향으로 주입할 수 있는 구조, 두 가지를 사용하였다. 유량 비율은 안쪽 입구와 바깥쪽 입구를 2:8, 5:5, 8:2로 고정하였다. 우선 GDP의 구조가 90이내의 각을 갖도록 주입되는 구조에서는 어떤 유량비율에서도 약간의 vortex가 발생했다. 수직방향의 유량이 감소될수록 기판에서 멀리서 발생했으며 강도 또한 감소했다. 기판 표면에서의 압력분포 균일도도 8:2에서 2.8%, 2:8에서 0.6%로 향상되었다. 2:8의 유량 비율에서 압력을 10에서 60 mTorr까지 향상시키면 vortex 효과는 감소되나 기판에서의 압력 균일도가 0.8%까지 약간 나빠졌다. 여기서 발생되는 vortex는 GDP 구조를 수평방향으로 주입되기 함으로서 해결할 수 있었으며, 압력 균일도도 0.2%까지 향상시킬 수 있었다. 또한, 강한 수직방향의 유량은 중심에 발생하는 플라즈마의 중앙을 밀어내는 효과를 확인했으며, 실험적 증명이 추후 연구단계로 진행될 예정이다. 식각 균일도나 식각 속도를 예측하려면 CF계열의 복잡한 가스를 사용해야하기 때문에 유량이 플라즈마에 미치는 영향을 보기 위해서 본 연구에서는 단일종인 Ar 가스만을 사용하였다. 첫 단계로 이와 같이 최적화시킨 유동조건에서 복잡한 식각가스를 이용한 플라즈마 계산은 다음 단계로 준비 중에 있다.

The stability condition and wideband characteristics of 3D ID-FDTD algorithm which has low dispersion error with isotropic dispersion are presented in this paper. 3D ID-FDTD method was proposed to improve the defect of the Yee FDTD such as the anisotropy and large dispersion error. The published paper calculated the stability condition of 3D ID-FDTD algorithm by using numerical method, however, it is thought that the examples were not sufficient to verify the stability condition. Thus, in this paper, various simulations are included in order to hold reliability under the conditions that the plane wave propagation is assumed with a single frequency and a wideband frequency. Also, the 3D ID-FDTD algorithm is compared to those that have the similar FDTD algorithm with ID-FDTD such as Forgy's method and non-standard FDTD method in a wideband. Finally, the radar cross section(RCS) for the large sphere with high dielectric constant is calculated.

Cellulase was modified with synthetic copolymers of polyoxyethylene derivative and maleic acid anhydride. The saccharification characteristics and enzymatic reaction kinetic mechanism of modified and native cellulases were observed. In modification reaction of cellulase, degree of modification(DM) increased, as mass ratio of copolymers to enzyme increased. Maximum DM was 55% at mass ratio of 4 and remained activity was 75%. In saccharification experiment modified enzyme had maintained higher stability than native enzyme over all the reaction and the final conversion yield of modified enzyme was greater than that of native enzyme. Numerical simulation based on the reaction mechanism considering enzymatic deactivation was performed. Modified enzyme had kept higher free enzyme concentration over all the reaction than that of native enzyme. Comparing calculation values with experimental data, calculation values were in accordance with experimental data.

This paper presents the robust stability analysis and design methodology of the fuzzy feedback linearization control systems. Uncertainty and disturbances with known bounds are assumed to be included Un the Takagi-Sugeno (TS) fuzzy models representing the nonlinear plants. $L_2$ robust stability of the closed system is analyzed by casting the systems into the diagonal norm bounded linear differential inclusions (DNLDI) formulation. Based on the linear matrix inequality (LMI) optimization programming, a numerical method for finding the maximum stable ranges of the fuzzy feedback linearization control gains is also proposed. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, the robust stability analysis and control design examples are given.

The researches on the early-aged concrete hydration process and the techniques for the early-aged concrete crack control mainly have been focused and developed on the massive concretes in both experimental and numerical studies. However, those researches for relatively thin members such as the upper slab of the reinforced concrete rahmen bridge have nearly been attempted. In this study, a designing technique for crack controlling in the thin members of the early-aged reinforced concrete rahmen bridges based on measured temperature history, strength revelation model and sinkage model is proposed. A method of calculating the reinforcing bar area for crack controlling is also proposed and it is found that the distributing bars under the design loads become the main reinforcing bars in the temperature stress analysis of the early-aged reinforced concrete rahmen bridges. It is shown that the proposed analysis technique is able to use the design of crack control for the early-aged reinforced concrete rahmen bridge.

The high-frequency electro-mechanical signatures, which are excited and received by piezoelectric wafers mounted on a beam, are sensitive to incipient defect in a beam. Predicting the sensing range of the piezoelectric wafers is needed to effectively conduct damage assessment of a beam through utilizing their advantage. Damping of a beam plays the most important role in determining the sensing range among other features. This paper has proposed a scheme for estimating high-frequency damping of a beam through electro-mechanical signatures of piezoelectric wafers mounted on the beam. Considering damping effect while resonance of a beam evolves, wave perspective is adopted to formulate the electro-mechanical signatures of piezoelectric wafers. The damping of a beam is estimated through the least squares method minimizing the difference between the calculated and the measured damping ratio function values which are obtained from formulated and measured electro-mechanical signatures, respectively. The validity of the proposed scheme has been demonstrated through numerical and experimental examples using an aluminum beam with collocated piezoelectric wafers.

To understand the spatial-temporal distribution of seawater in Korea's South Sea, seawater movement and the distribution of water temperature has been analyzed using a hydrodynamic model (the Princeton Ocean Model). The directions of tidal currents were generally westward during flood tides and eastward during ebb tides. Northeastward Tsushima Warm Currents in the open sea, which is deeper than 50m were stronger than in coastal areas. Analysis of data from the hydrodynamic model showed that the water temperature in the semi-closed bay was relatively higher ($26{\sim}28^{\circ}C$) than in the open sea ($18{\sim}22^{\circ}C$). The exchange volume of semi-closed seawater was $10,331m^3/sec$ in Gwangyang Bay, $16,935m^3/sec$ in Yeosu-Gamag Bay and $13,454m^3/sec$ in Geoje-Hansan Bay. Therefore, it was shown that the lower seawater exchange volume is, the higher seawater temperature will be.

Recently, multi-dimensional joint inversion of geophysical data based on fundamentally different physical properties is being actively studied. Joint inversion can provide a way to obtaining much more accurate image of the subsurface structure. Through the joint inversion, furthermore, it is possible to directly estimate non-geophysical material properties from geophysical measurements. In this study, we developed a new algorithm for jointly inverting dc resistivity and seismic traveltime data based on the multiple constraints: (1) structural similarity based on cross-gradient, (2) correlation between two different material properties, and (3) a priori information on the material property distribution. Through the numerical experiments of surface dc resistivity and seismic refraction surveys, the performance of the proposed algorithm was demonstrated and the effects of different regularizations were analyzed. In particular, we showed that the hidden layer problem in the seismic refraction method due to an inter-bedded low velocity layer can be solved by the joint inversion when appropriate constraints are applied.
