This paper presents a dynamic crack propagation algorithm based on the Moving Least Squares(MLS) difference method. The derivative approximation for the MLS difference method is derived by Taylor expansion and moving least squares procedure. The method can analyze dynamic crack problems using only node model, which is completely free from the constraint of grid or mesh structure. The dynamic equilibrium equation is integrated by the Newmark method. When a crack propagates, the MLS difference method does not need the reconstruction of mode model at every time step, instead, partial revision of nodal arrangement near the new crack tip is carried out. A crack is modeled by the visibility criterion and dynamic energy release rate is evaluated to decide the onset of crack growth together with the corresponding growth angle. Mode I and mixed mode crack propagation problems are numerically simulated and the accuracy and stability of the proposed algorithm are successfully verified through the comparison with the analytical solutions and the Element-Free Galerkin method results.

Electronic Toll Collection(ETC) System makes the telecommunication possible between the Beacon and the On Board Unit(OBU) in vehicle at the highway. In this paper, the propagation path of microwave is modelled and the induced voltage of receiving antenna is analyzed numerically according to multi-path fading effort. In this modelling, we consider the weather condition, polarization and antenna radiation pattern. Also, we suggest the diversity technique in order to re duce the fading effect. In the result, the lading effort is reduced significantly in case of the vertical polarization at the rain condition. The circular polarization is the most desirable in this application. The antenna which has the high directivity, is also desirable. Using the space diversity technique at the Beaten, the fading effect is reduced as the distance increases between the Beacon and OBU. These results are presented at the graphs whose axes are related to the magnitude of received voltage(dB) and the distance of the beacon and a vehicle.

현재까지 상수도관망 내 수질적 거동에 대한 분석은 (1) 네트워크 수질 모델(EPANET 수질모의 등)에 기반한 방법과 (2) 시공간적 저해상도 데이터에 기반한 데이터 분석법이 주를 이루었다. 그러나 현존 네트워크 수질 모델은 수질 사고의 복잡한 물리·화학적 거동을 상세히 모의하기 어렵다. 반면 계측 및 통신기술의 발달로 고해상도 수질 데이터의 실시간 수집이 가능해지면서 사고의 사전감지, 발생시 즉각적 탐지 및 대응을 위한 데이터 분석법에 관심이 증가하고 있다. 서울 문래동, 인천, 포항의 경우에서도 알 수 있듯이, 수질사고 발생 시 원인물질의 시공간적 이송 또는 전파에 대한 정보는 사고대응에 유용하게 활용된다. 본 연구는, 비정상적인 수질변화의 계통 내 전달 시간을 계산하기 위해 고해상도 수질 스마트 미터 데이터에 기반한 데이터 분석법을 개발하였다. 물공급 하류방향의 수질변화 전달 시간 정량화를 위해 화음탐색법 기반 동적시간워핑(Dynamic time warping; DTW) 기술을 이용하였고, 원데이터의 전처리를 위해 이동평균필터링을 수행하였다. 개발된 분석법은 A시 생산 및 배·급수과정의 감시지점에서 10초 단위로 계측된 다양한 수질변수(pH, 탁도, 잔류염소, 전기전도도, 수온 등)의 공간적 변이 전파시간을 결정하기 위해 적용되었다. 분석에 활용한 데이터는 데이터 통신 및 측정 기기에 의한 이상값과 운영상황의 변화에 따라 변동한 값을 처리하기 이전의 데이터이다. 데이터 품질에 의한 영향을 배제하기 위해 이상값이 발생하지 않은 기간을 파악한 후, 그 기간에 대하여 분석하였다. 계통 내 위계에 따라 두 지점의 측정값의 전파시간을 정량화한 결과, 지점에 따라 전파시간이 다르게 나타났다. 또한, 같은 두 지점에 적용한 결과라도 DTW를 적용하는 기간과 이동평균필터링의 크기에 따라 수질변화 전달 시간이 다르게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 개발된 분석법은 다변량 수질변수 간의 영향관계를 파악하는데 확장 적용이 가능하다. 또한, 이 방법의 실시간 적용을 통해 동적으로 변화하는 전달시간을 주기적, 공간적으로 갱신하여 관망 수질 변화 모니터링이 가능하다.

A new diagnostics of plasma electron temperature and plasma density is introduced with the observation of the light emission along the tube of external electrode fluorescent lamps. With two different methods operating an external electrode fluorescent lamp of outer diameter 4.0 mm and length 860 mm for the back-light source of 37-inch LCD-TVs, the lighting modes and the plasma properties are investigated. In the center balance operation, the light-emission propagates simultaneously from both sides of the high voltage electrodes to the center of the lamp, while in conventional operation the light-emission propagates from the one end of a high voltage to the other ground electrode. In the operation value of luminance $10,000{\sim}15,000cd/m^2$, the electron plasma thermal energy $(kT_e)$ is about $1.3{\sim}2.7eV$ with the electron density $(n_e)$ is about $(1.6{\sim}3.6){\times}10^{16}m^{-3}$.

In highly stressed conditions, the excavation damage zone induced by stress redistribution and disturbance must be evaluated after tunnel excavation. Therefore, the investigation of stress-induced deformation and fracture in rock is indispensable. In this study, fracture and damage mechanisms of rock induced by the accumulation of microcracks were investigated by the moving point regression technique as well as acoustic emission measured during uniaxial compression tests. Especially, the modified procedures to determine damage thresholds more systematically were newly proposed, and successfully applied to rock. From experiments, crack initiation and track damage stress levels were estimated to be $33{\~}36\%$ and $84{\~}89\%$ of uniaxial compressive strength respectively, for both of Hwangdeung granite and Yeosan marble. However, the normalized crack closure stress level for Yeosan marble was much higher than for Hwangdeung granite. In addition, the largest proportion of total axial strain in Hwangdeung granite was attributable to elastic deformation and initial microcracking. However, the greatest part of axial deformation in Yeosan marble arose from initial crack closure and unstable cracking. Finally, it was seen that unstable cracking after the crack damage stress level played a key part in the lateral deformation in rocks under uniaxial compression.

Conventional radar altimeter system measured directly the distance between the satellite and the ocean surface and frequently used by aircraft for approach and landing. The radar altimeter is good at flat surface like sea whereas it is difficult to determine precise three dimensional ground coordinates because the ground surface, unlike ocean, is very indented. To overcome this drawback of the radar altimeter, we have developed and validated the interferometric radar altimeter signal processing which is combined with new synthetic aperture and interferometric signal processing algorithm to extract precise three-dimensional ground coordinates. The proposed algorithm can accurately measure the three dimensional ground coordinates using three antennas. In a set of 70 simulations, the averages of errors in x, y and z directions were approximately -0.40 m, -0.02 m and 4.22 m, respectively and the RMSEs were about 3.40 m, 0.30 m and 6.20 m, respectively. The overall results represent that the proposed algorithm is effective for accurate three dimensional ground positioning.

This work investigates whether stress changes induced by an earthquake can be estimated using the deformation measured by high-resolution borehole strainmeters. We estimate the changes in the orientation and magnitude of the principal compression stresses using borehole strainmeter data recorded before and after the M7.2 El Mayor-Cucapah earthquake on April 4, 2010. Clear differences in the stress orientations and magnitudes are apparent before and after the event. The change in stress orientation appears related to subtle increases of stress in the tectonic maximum principal orientation, which is in agreement with the earthquake focal mechanism solution. The sudden stress drop at the onset of the earthquake was 10⁻³-10⁻² MPa in the principal orientations. The Coulomb stress transfer model, which can estimate stress transfer, predicts a shear stress increase of (0.1-0.6) × 10⁻² MPa at the strainmeter site, which is in line with the measured data (0.3-0.8) × 10⁻² MPa. Overall, our results suggest that borehole strainmeter data reflect the subtle stress changes associated with earthquake occurrence, and that such data can be utilized for earthquake-related research.

KBSI 부산센터에 건설중인 소형의 다중 양전하 중이온 가속기에 사용될 초전도 ECR 이온온은 최대 자기장 3 T, 최소 0.5 T의 자기 Mirror구조를 가지고 있으며 중심 부근의 1 T 자기장에서 28 GHz 전자공명에 의해 마이크로파의 에너지를 플라즈마로 전달한다. 최대 10 kW의 Gyrotron에서 TE02 모드로 발생하는 마이크로파는 모드변환기, 직류차단기 및 진공창을 통하여 플라즈마로 입사된다. 32.5 mm 지름의 원형 도파관에서 자기장 축방향으로 도입된 TE01 모드의 마이크로파를 Altar-Appleton-Hartree 분산관계식을 이용하여 군속도의 관점에서 살펴보았다. 플라즈마 밀도가 Cut-off에 근접하지 않는 한 마이크로파의 바깥 방향으로의 회절은 크지 않았으며, 전자공명 위치로 접근함에 따라 군속도의 방향이 바뀌어 오히려 중심 방향으로 향함을 알 수 있다. 즉 마이크로파가 플라즈마 챔버의 벽을 가열시킬 가능성은 크지 않은 것이다. 또한 뜨거운 전자 플라즈마의 Susceptibility를 이용하여 마이크로파의 플라즈마로의 전자 공명에 의한 흡수를 살펴본 결과, 운전 영역에 속하는 전자밀도가 제공되면 공명 지점에 이르기 전에 충분히 흡수되는 것을 확인하였으며, 이에 따라 챔버를 관통하여 인출부 벽에 충돌하는 마이크로파 에너지는 무시할 수 있을 것으로 보여진다. 이 결과들을 토대로 마이크로파 시스템을 설계 완료하였다.

In this paper, we have developed a retrodirective active array operating in the 2 GHz LS band. The retrodirective array has the property of re-directing any electromagnetic wave back to the incoming direction without any priory informations. The system is consisted of frequency mixers and antenna array. The mixer is acting as a phase conjugator. In this research, 2-port gate mixers using pHEMT and 1${\times}$4 monopole array have been used. The retrodirective array developed in this research can be applied in the base station facilities for the wireless mobile communications and RFID transponders.
