Injection molding is one of plastic forming technology which can easily mass-produce plastic parts with various and even complex shape. The technology has lots of difficulties in making a good part due to phase change of material, high applied pressure, and fast melt flow speed in the cavity. To overcome the problems, they had to make trial and error method until the CAE(Computer Aided Engineering) could be a tool for concurrent engineering. In this paper, we investigate the optimal design for a plastic DVD tray part by systematic approach of the commercial CAE program. In design, we should consider two objectives which are both dimensional stability and cost-down. The dimension of the part is crucial because the tray should carry a DVD correctly, but the part is too thin to injection-mold easily. In order to improve the moldability, the mold is designed in the form of stack mold which is a kind of 4 hot runner system. In first, we changed the stack-mold system with one hot-runner to cost down, and decided the optimal position of the gate. After that, we investigate the effect of both the layout of cooling channels and the cooling temperature on the shrinkage of the DVD tray. A optimal simulation approach, the gate design is 2Gate#3 and the layout is Case2 cooling line as the optimal temperature of $70^{\circ}C$. The Moldflow and PC+ABS are used for the CAE program and material respectively.

The electrothermal vaporization (ETV) hollow cathode glow discharge atomic emission spectrometer for analysis of liquid sample has been developed and characterized. This system has improved the sample introduction method of electrothermal vaporization and the hollow cathode glow discharge. The sample introduction method was possible to provide high analyte transport efficiency to the plasma by helix coil made of tungsten material. In addition, small volume samples (<$30{\mu}{\ell}$) could be used. The system has glow discharge cell with special design for improvement of precision. The effect of discharge parameters such as discharge power, gas flow rate has been studied to find optimum condition. The emitted light was effectively carried into detector by fiber optic cable in UV region. The calibration curve of Pb, Cd were obtained with 3 samples.

As the needs for fast wireless communication technology in various fields, including companies, individuals, etc., grows, many research projects related to the coverage of propagation are being carried out for plaining optimized communication services. On the other hand, there are some limitations in surveying and analyzing propagation in highland areas. To provide a better communication service of a new service, a range of radio environment conditions based on a wide radio bandwidth (selection of propagation model, correction of value in accordance with radio bandwidth, etc.) should be considered. In particular, radio environment conditions are becoming increasingly sophisticated. By the early detection of real-time changes in the radio spectrum, which is based on an examination and research of regional occupied band width condition, proper measures should be established. To make a proper solution of above, the basic real-time analysis of spectrum distribution status by regional groups is necessary. In addition, the establishment of prompt measures should be enable by stored or analyzed radio data. In an attempt to predict reliable propagation coverage, this thesis examines the limited propagation data with HTZ Warfare, which were collected from domestic high land sites faced with limited access. Furthermore, a comparative result value evaluation for an optimized propagation model was performed through testing simulations, and frequency-dependent and propagation model-dependent analysis.

Recently, the advances on sensor technology increases the study on data processing oriented middleware. Usually, most of middleware uses the naive and delta method for queue management to process data effectively. But such a queue management method it is difficult to support guaranteeing of the requested quality of services because it simply discards the data in a queue when the overflow is occurred. To handle this problem, some methods for minimizing data volumes in a wireless sensor network have been studied, but most of them cause another problem that needs the huge processing time additionally with higher complexity of the proposed algorithm. In this paper, we propose a new method of delta-average queue management by applying the mean value to the exiting delta queue management method using the data differences to handle the problem of queue overflow. The proposed method has lower complexity than the others and increases the QoS of a WSN application by using mean value instead of using data discarding policy. In addition, it is designed to manage a queue effectively by controlling the range of data differences adaptively to the target sensor network environment.

p-i-n 형 비정질 실리콘 박막 태양전지에서 p층은 창물질(window material)로서 전기 전도도가 크고, 빛 흡수가 적어야한다. p층의 두께가 얇으면 p층 전체가 depletion layer가 되고 충분한 diffusion potential을 얻을 수 없어 open-circuit voltage ($V_{oc}$)가 작아진다. 반대로 p층 두께가 두꺼워지면 빛 흡수가 증가하고, 표면 재결합이 문제가 되어 변환효율이 감소한다. 밴드갭이 큰 물질로 창층을 제작하게 되면 보다 짧은 파장의 입사광이 직접 i층을 비추므로 Short-circuit current ($I_{sc}$) 와 fill factor를 증가시킬 수 있다. 하여 본 연구에서는 기존의 창층으로 사용되는 Boron을 doping한 p-type a-Si:H 대신에 $N_2O$를 첨가한 p-type a-$SiO_x$:H의 $N_2O$ flow rate에 따른 밴드갭의 변화에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. p-type a-$SiO_x$:H Layer는 $SiH_4$, $H_2$, $N_2O$, $B_2H_6$ 가스를 혼합하여 증착하게 되는데 $SiH_4$, 가스와 $H_2$ 가스의 혼합비는 1:20, $B_2H_6$ 농도는 0.5%로 고정 하였으며 $N_2O$의 flow rate을 가변하며 증착하였다. $N_2O$의 가변조건은 5에서 50sccm으로 가변하여 증착하며 일반적으로 사용되는 RF-PECVD (13.56MHz)를 이용하였고 증착 온도는 175도, 전극간의 거리는 40mm, 파워와 압력은 30W, 700mTorr로 고정하여 진행하였다. 전기적 특성을 알아보기 위해 eagle 2000 Glass를 사용하였고 구조적 특성은 p-type wafer를 사용하여 각각 대략 200nm의 두께로 증착하였다. 증착 두께는 Ellipsometry를 이용하였으며 전기 전도도는 Agilent사의 4156c를 구조적특성은 FT-IR을 사용하여 측정하였다. Conductivity(${\sigma}_d$)는 $N_2O$가 증가함에 따라 $8.73\;{\times}\;10^{-6}$에서 $5.06\;{\times}\;10^{-7}$으로 감소하였고 optical bandgap ($E_{opt}$)은 1.71eV에서 2.0eV로 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 reflective index(n)의 경우는 4.32에서 3.52로 감소함을 나타내었다. 기존의 p-type a-Si:H에 비해 상당한 $E_{opt}$을 가지므로 빛 흡수에 의한 손실을 줄임으로서 $V_oc$를 향상 시킬 수 있으며 동시에 짧은 파장에서의 입사광이 직접 i층을 비추므로 $I_{sc}$와 FF를 향상 시킬 수 있으리라 예상된다. 다소 낮은 전도도만 개선한다면 고효율의 박막 태양전지를 제작 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

CO₂ capture and storage (CCS) is one of the promising technologies that can mitigate ever-growing emission of anthropogenic carbon dioxide and resultant climate change. Among them, chemical looping combustion (CLC) and calcium looping (CaL) are getting increasing attention recently as the prospective alternatives to the existing amine scrubbing. Both methods use metal oxides in the process and consist of cyclic reactions. Yet, due to their cyclic nature, they both need to resolve sintering-induced cyclic stability deterioration. Moreover, the structure of the metal oxides needs to be optimized to enhance the overall performance of CO₂ capture and storage. Deposition of thin film coating on the metal oxide is another way to get rid of wear and tear during the sintering process. Chemical vapor deposition or atomic layer deposition are the well-known, established methods to form thin film membranes, which will be discussed in this review. Various effective recent developments on structural modification of metal oxide and incorporation of stabilizers for cyclic stability are also discussed.

In this paper, a mesh simplification algorithm based on wavelet transform and 2D planar sampling is proposed for efficient handling of 3D objects in computer applications. Since 3D vertices are directly transformed with wavelets in conventional mesh compression and simplification algorithms, it is difficult to solve tiling optimization problems which reconnect vertices into faces in the synthesis stage highly demanding vertex connectivities. However, a 3D mesh is sampled onto 2D planes and 2D polygons on the planes are independently simplified in the proposed algorithm. Accordingly, the transform of 2D polygons is very tractable and their connection information Is replaced with a sequence of vertices. The vertex sequence of the 2D polygons on each plane is analyzed with wavelets and the transformed data are simplified by removing small wavelet coefficients which are not dominant in the subjective quality of its shape. Therefore, the proposed algorithm is able to change the mesh level-of-detail simply by controlling the distance of 2D sampling planes and the selective removal of wavelet coefficients. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is a simple and efficient simplification technique with less external distortion.

An Electrical Point Machine (NS:New-type Switch), which is equipped and operated at railways in Korea, has been used since the 1960s after being imported from Japan. On the other hand, although the mechanical configuration has improved the position motor control circuit, the electrical connection has not been improved, so NS may have a problem, such as the interlocking system of automatic train operation. In addition, NS is the most vulnerable part in the railway system and a huge train accident may occur due to minor defects. The existing NS wiring set of the circuit controller should be checked only if fixed. Therefore, an excessive inspection time only by a Railroad Signal expert is required. In this paper, the improvement of electrical connection in a NS wiring set, such as the position motor control circuit, was developed and the prototype was installed at Seoul Metro in the distance to go section. The results can be used to help make appropriate adjustments. The improvement of the NS wiring set enhance the maintenance efficiency, passenger service and the stability of the signal system as well as reducing the maintenance cost.

Currently in a Ubiquitous Sensor Network (USN) research field, supporting mobility is recognized as an important technology. MIPv6 and Network Mobility(NEMO) Basic Support Protocol are standard protocols to support mobility in the Internet. However, if they are applied to USN with no modification, handoff performance decreases due to the size of their binding message. An existing lightweight protocol for NEMO protocol has a compatibility problem of Sequence Num. and does not optimally compress binding messages considering 6LoWPAN network structure and addressing. This paper proposes optimal header compression which supports node-based mobility and network-based mobility. Our optimal compression technique compresses a 32bytes binding update(BU) message and a 12bytes binding ACK(BA) message of MIPv6 into 13bytes and 3bytes, and a 40bytes BU message and a 12bytes BA message of NEMO protocol into 13bytes and 3bytes. The result shows that our protocol compresses 15bytes (NEMO-BU) and 1byte (NEMO-BA) more than the existing protocol and achieves 8.72% handoff performance improvement.

This paper compares the realities of the salary Peak Policy's status and management processes in Korea and Japan, with the aim of determining the development direction for Korea's salary Peak Policy's. Unlike Japan, which successfully achieved close cooperation between government, firms and workers in implementing the Retirement Age Extension Type salary Peak Policy, Korea experienced many problems due to lack of preparation. In order to rationally develop the salary Peak Policy, the government, firms, and workers must cooperate to increase the policy's efficiency via the following steps. First, gradually increase the proportion of retirement age extension. Second, career development that takes into account the various employment types, flexible working hours and aged workers. Third, development of training programs for senior citizen workers, as well as increasing support for changing of jobs and startups. Fourth, expansion of re-employment after retirement age and ways to make use of the skilled labor. Fifth, increasing work efficiency through bonuses and work evaluation that is specialized for aged workers. This paper argues that such measures are necessary for the co-existence of firms and workers, as well as for improving employment stability and labor market flexibility.
