Organic photovoltaic properties were studied in ZnPc/$C_{60}$ heterojunction structure by varying the organic layer thicknesses and exiton blocking layer(EBL). Current density-voltage characteristics of organic photovoltaic cells were measured using Keithley 236 source-measure unit, a 500W xenon lamp (ORIEL 66021) for a light source and Agilent 4294A impedance analyzer in the range of 40 Hz $\sim$ 1 MHz. From the analyses of current-voltage characteristics such as short-circuit current density, open-circuit voltage and power conversion efficiency, optimum thickness of the organic layer were obtained and frequency response such as electrical conductance.

Torsional oscillations of the mechanical drivetrain in electric vehicles are generated under rapid driving conditions. These lead to an uncomfortable jerking of the vehicle and to an increased stress of the mechanical components. To analyze this phenomenon, a drivetrain model is constructed with lumped parameters. The model parameters are identified by geometrical design data and experimental tests. The proposed model is validated by simulation and experimental tests in the time and the frequency domains. As a result, the torsional oscillations are observed at 7Hz of a low damped natural frequency. Also, the analysis of the effect of the parameter variations on the oscillations shows that the oscillation characteristic is mainly dependent on the rotor inertia, and the stiffness of the mounting of the drive aggregate and the driveshaft. The results will be utilized on the basis of the design of an electric drivetrain and an active control of drivetrain oscillations.

최근 경제적인 연비와 효율적인 가동성, 배기가스 감소의 이유로 초임계압 보일러가 각광받고 있다. 하지만 보일러 연소로는 용접된 튜브로 구성되어 있기 때문에 연소 시 내부압력에 의해 발생되는 진동에 취약하여 이에 대한 진동안정성 평가가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 CFD 기법을 기반으로 수행한 변동압력 해석과 단순화한 모델을 이용한 진동해석을 통하여 보일러 운전 시의 진동안정성 평가를 수행하였다. 변동압력해석은 정상상태 CFD 해석을 수행하고, 이를 이용한 음향모드 해석과 비정상상태 CFD 해석에서 변동압력을 추출하고, 음향모드 해석결과와 주파수 성분을 비교하여 검증하였으며 이를 진동해석 모델에 기진력으로 적용하여 보일러 연소로의 진동해석을 수행하였다. 진동해석 모델은 동특성을 고려한 등가물성치를 이용하여 연소로의 복잡한 구조를 단순화하였으며 buckstay 등의 방진구조를 구현하여 보일러의 진동안정성을 평가하는 기법을 정립하였다. 해석결과, 보일러 운전조건에서 비정상상태 CFD 해석을 통해 구한 변동압력과 진동해석을 통해 얻은 가속도 응답은 안정적 수준인 것으로 확인하였다. 이는 향후 유사한 보일러 안정성 평가에 적용이 가능하고, buckstay 등 보일러의 방진 구조 설계 및 평가에도 적용할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Two kinds of experimental modal analyses have been performed on a radial tire for passenger car under fixed axle. One is the modal analysis to obtain three-dimensional modes of tire using accelerometers and the other is the one to identify cavity resonance frequency using a pressure sensor. From the first analysis, we have obtained three-dimensional natural modes and their decomposed 3-D modes in each direction, which make it possible to grasp the features of the modes that cannot be identified in the conventional 2-D modes and to classify the vibrationall modes into symmetric, non-symmetric, and antisymmetric modes in a simple way by using the experimental results. From the second experimental analysis, the cavity resonance frequency is found. Coomparing the results of the two analyses, we have Identified the three-dimensional mode of the cavity resonance. We also haute shown that natural frequencies of structural vibration depends on inflation Pressure while the cavity resonance does not.

The powertrain is an important factor for the interior and exterior noise behavior of the vehicle Thus, the noise vibration and harshness(NVH) behavior of an engine is becoming a major target of the powertrain development. This paper describes the analyses with the aim to reduce the vibration and noise of an advanced inline 4-cylinder diesel engine block by use of CAE methods. The characteristics of an engine block as a main excitation source of car interior noise is studied. Particularly, The effect of balance shaft to reduce the 2nd order engine excitation force is calculated by forced vibration and radiated noise analysis. The engine exitation forces are obtained under real operating conditions. It is shown that the reduction of vibration and noise level by adapting blancing shaft is well predicted and rediated noise is directly related to the surface velocity of engine block.

Nonuniform transmission lines(NTLs) with the desired frequency response can be realized by synthesizing the potential from the coupled mode Zakharov-Shabat(ZS) equation in the one-dimensional inverse scattering problem. In this study, an efficient synthesis method using the ZS equations is presented for NTLs with arbitrarily specified reflection coefficients which take the restricted potential. This method lessens the line length which plague conventional design schemes using specific windows for reflection coefficients. Furthermore solving the ZS inverse transform problem is simplified by adopting the successive approach instead of the conventional iterative method. The proposed method is compared with the conventional method using specific windows by applying to design of dispersive NTL filters, and verified by two-port analysis through the chain matrix.

Two kinds of piezoelectric actuator are applied to the valve for controlling the direction, the flow and the pressure of the fluid. One is a stack type piezoelectric actuator which has very fast response characteristics but very tiny displacement. The other is a bender type piezoelectric actuator which has also fast response characteristics but lower than the stack type one, and has longer displacement than the stack type one. So, the bender type piezoelectric actuator has advantage to apply to the valve for controlling a large amount of flow and fast on-off operating. In this study, the bender type piezoelectric pneumatic valve for color sorter is designed and fabricated. The new type high speed piezo valve with the both side supporting mechanism for high operating frequency and high reliability is discussed for separating the foreign body from the grains. Finally, the performance characteristics of a fabricated valve are analyzed and the frequency characteristics are also discussed for substituting the conventional type solenoid actuator.

Conventional echo watermarking techniques often exhibit inherent trade-offs between imperceptibility and robustness. In this paper, a new echo embedding technique is proposed. The proposed method enables one to embed high energy echoes while the host audio quality is not deteriorated, so that it is robust to common signal processing modifications and resistant to tampering. It is possible due to echo kernels that are designed based on psychoacoustic analyses. In addition, we propose some novel techniques to improve robustness against signal processing attacks. Subjective and objective evaluations confirmed that the proposed method could improve the robustness without perceptible distortion.

The strong nonliner dynamic behavior of mechanical systems in the presence of clearances are studied. The nonlinearity is induced from the assumed symmetric piecewise-linear characteristics for stiffness and damping by the contact and uncontact. Based on Stoker's assertion concering the reasoning beyond the occurrence of subharmonics, the nonlinear differential equation is converted to four nonlinear algebraic equations form the boundary conditions at the contact points. For a single contact per half exciting period, under the assumption of symmetric response, the steady-state solutions obtained are in agreement with those of numerical integration. Also a nondimen-sionalized formulation is made for the purpose of parametric studies.

The MCS(Micro-coplanar strip) line has been analyzed. The conformal mapping method is used to calculate the quasi-static effective permittivity and characteristic impedance of this MCS line. The computed results of the present work are found to be in good agreement when compared with the results obtained using commercial S/W, IE3D. And in this paper, the stepped-impedance low pass microstrip filter is designed and fabricated with MCS lines for improving the frequency responses. The LPF proposed structure has been also designed and implemented to have the sharp attenuation characteristics in stop band. The agreement between simulation and measurement results verify the implemented LPF.
