This paper presents a novel concept of cargo handling system adapted for a sea port subjected to severe time-varying tide. The proposed system can perform loading or unloading by using a sort of hydraulic elevator associated with real-time position control. In order to achieve a proof-of-concept, a small-sized laboratory model of the cargo handling system is designed and built. The model consists of three principal components container palette transfer (CPT) car, platform with lifting columns, and cargo ship. The platform activated by electro-rheological (ER) valve-cylinders is actively controlled to track the position of the cargo ship subjected to be varied due to the time-varying tide and wave motion. Following the derivation of the dynamic model for the platform and cargo ship motions, an appropriate control scheme is formulated and implemented. The location of the CPT car is sensed by a set of photoelectric switches and controlled via sequence controller. On the other hand, a sliding mode controller (SMC) is adopted as the position controller for the platform. Both simulated and measured control results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed cargo system.

One of the important objects in the multimedia instruction is improvement of ability to make multimedia contents. In order to achieve this goal, instructing project based multimedia contents authoring and examining the effectiveness can be contributable to enhance the instruction strategies. In this study, we analyzed the teaming effects according to characteristics of students on project based multimedia contents authoring which has performed during one semester, at a university to enrich the purpose of multimedia instruction. As the result, differences on teaming effects according to personal characteristics such as 'ages', 'admitter or not', were found to be significant in statistics. And 'interestedness in projects', 'roles in projects' also have lead to distinct differences on students' performance.

Procedures and results of aerodynamic design of a centrifugal compressor are presented for development of a 40kW class turbogenerator gas turbine. Specification of higher level of total pressure ratio of 4 and total efficiency of $80\%$ requires advanced methods of design and analysis. In the meanline design/analysis, a method with conventional loss modeling and a method with the two-zone model are alternately used for more reliable prediction. In the impeller blade generation, a series of Bezier curve are combined to produce meridional contours and distributions of blade camber angle and blade thickness. Intermediate profiles of blades are repeatedly produced and changed to be finally fixed through quasi-three dimensional Euler flow analysis. Three dimensional compressible turbulent flow analysis is then performed for the impeller to be confirmed in the final step of design. Satisfactory results in the aerodynamic performance are obtained, which assures that there is no need of aerodynamic re-design.

The purpose of this study was to optimize carbonate suspension counting method for the measurements of high level activity of $^{14}C$ in a reactor stack effluent gases. Although it is less sensitive method, the carbonate suspension counting method has been found to be a suitable technique for the $^{14}C$ monitoring of samples with small amount but with high specific activity and to be relatively simple and fast.

Many car manufacturers have frequently adopted an aggressive inflator and a lower threshold speed for airbag deployment in order to meet an injury requirement for unbolted occupant at high speed crash test. Consequently, today's occupant safety restraint system has a weakness due to an airbag induced injury at low speed crash event. This paper proposes a new crash algorithm to improve the weakness by suppressing airbag deployment at low speed crash event in case of belted condition. The proposed algorithm consists of two major blocks-crash severity algorithm and deployment logic block. The first block decides crash severity with two levels by means of velocity and crash energy calculation from acceleration signal. The second block implemented by simple AND/OR logic combines the crash severity level and seat belt status information to generate firing commands for airbag and belt pretensioner. Furthermore, it can be extended to adopt additional sensor information from passenger presence detection sensor and safing sensor. A simulation using real crash data for a 1,800cc passenger vehicle has been conducted to verify the performance of proposed algorithm.

하구는 담수와 해수가 만나 넓은 갯벌과 기수역을 형성하여 각종 생물의 서식지이자 어류의 산란지로 이용되는 생태학적으로 중요한 지역이다. 특히 한강 하구는 국내 4 대강 가운데 유일하게 하구둑이 설치되어 있지 않아 조수의 출입이 자유롭고 민간인 접근이 통제되어 있어 자연적인 하천지형과 기수역 생태계가 비교적 잘 보전된 구역이다. 본 연구의 모의영역은 한강 하류부로 상류 경계단은 행주대교, 하류 경계단은 전류단 수위표가 위치한 경기도 연천군 전곡읍 전곡 사랑교 부근으로 설정하였다. 지형자료는 한국건설기술연구원에서 2009년 8월 홍수사상 전 후에 대해 측량한 자료를 사용하였다. 한강 하구역에 대한 지형 격자를 구성하기 위하여 RAMS 전후 처리기인 RAMS-GUI를 사용하였으며, 구성된 지형 격자의 절점 수는 2,354개, 요소 수는 2,145개로 삼각요소와 사각요소가 혼용되어 있다. 구성된 격자망을 이용하여 2차원 하상변동 해석 모형인 SED-2D 모의를 통해 홍수사상에 의한 한강 하구부의 하상변동을 살펴보았다. SED-2D 모형은 미국 육군 공변단의 WES와 미 연방 도로국이 연계하여 개발되어 현재 국내외 2차원 하천해석에서 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 모형 중 하나이다. 하상변동 해석모형인 SED-2D를 통해 모의된 하상 변동량을 실제 측량된 홍수 전 후의 지형자료와 비교함으로써 모형의 성능을 분석하였다. 분석결과 SED-2D 모형의 경우 침식에 의한 하상변동이 모의되지 않았지만, 전반적인 하상변동 경향을 살펴볼 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.

An experimental study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of a suction-blowing fan that could not only remove polluted air by suction but also create the air-curtain by blowing. In order to create the air-curtain, rotors were installed on the surface of the shroud. These blows fresh air into the polluted region. The fresh air is spouted backward 45o on the basis of the axial direction using a double-ducted bellmouth. In the same suction operating condition, the suction region was extended by increasing the blowing velocity. However, the increasing rate of suction region was reduced when the blowing velocity was increased steadily. Thus, an efficient blowing velocity should be determined depending on the suction operating condition. In addition, the blowing requires additional input power. In a fixed suction operating condition, the input power was linearly increased in proportion to the blowing flowrate. When the suction-blowing fan was operated in the same input power as the suction fan, the suction region was increased more than 30% based on the 0.6m/sec velocity.

In this paper, a temperature controller for a semiconductor test handler is proposed. First, a handware system for identification and control is established using RTD sensors, an A/D converter, solid state relays, a heater, and a computer system. Second, using ARMAX model and least square method, a chamber model for the design of a controller is identified through experiments. The identified model is verified to describe the real plant very well in the sense that it shows very similar input-output responses to those of the real system. With the identified model an LQG controller is designed. Frequency response of the designed controller shows that it has 15 dB of gainmargin and (-50˚, +50˚) of phase margin. Experiment with a real test handler demonstrates a good performance in the sense that its overshoot and steady state error are smaller and response time is faster, compared with those of a conventional PID controller.

Steel plates coated by self-healable polymer still can be rusted since it takes time to be healed. In this study, dual self-healing coating material is developed using corrosion inhibitor (DTBEDA) which can form hindered urea (HUB) as reversible cross-linking bond at the same time. Developed dual self-healing polymer is coated on steel plate, and scratch healing property was investigated by surgical blades and nano/micro indentation tester. The anticorrosion effect of DTBEDA was investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).

The genus Chrysaster Kumata is one of the members in Lithocolletinae of Gracillariidae (Lepidoptera: Gracillarioidea). Chrysaster hagicola Kumata, 1961 has been the only known species of the genus in Korea so far. In this study, we report another species, Chrysaster ostensackenella (Fitch, 1859) for the first time from Korea. The samples of C. ostensackenella were collected as larvae and adults on Robinia pseudoacacia L. (Fabales: Fabaceae). Diagnostic characteristics with a brief description are given, as well as, photographs of adults and genitalia of both sexes are provided. A further study on C. ostensackenella is strongly recommended, especially for the business of honey, as this species is recently known to be a serious pest on acacias (black locust) in China.
