TCP receivers deliver ACK packets to senders for reliable end-to-end transfer. When ACK packets are not transferred properly because of network congestion, the performance of TCP degrades. This paper proposes a reverse congestion warning mechanism and a congestion handling mechanism in heterogeneous networks with heavy background traffic in the backward direction. Help from TCP receivers or hardware such as routers and gateways other than the ACK packets themselves is not necessary. TCP senders compare the arrival intervals of ACK data passed from receivers and the difference in t imestamp values echoed by receivers. According to the simulation results using the NS-2 network simulator, the proposed scheme shows a performance elevation of 20% greater than Reno, 150% greater than New Reno, and 450% greater than Westwood, respectively, under heterogeneous networks and that the error rate of the radio link is 1% when the backward network is congested.

The sprayed FRP strengthening technique is combining the Glass fiber and Polyester resin in open air and spraying randomly at concrete's surface with high-speed compressed air. Then it strengthens the structures with a new technique evaluated the structural performance. We applied it to concrete beam and tested for flexural strength, depended on Korea Standard(KS F 2408). Then based on the result of flexural strength, the properties were proposed that applying to structures. Based on the experiment, we have evaluated structural performance by the experiment. 1/5 scale prestressed concrete I-beam were made by Korean Highway's typical drawing in 1993. With these test results, 49.8% increased in flexural strength, improvement of the behavior of serviceability state, and strengthening was surely effective for controlling deflection and crack of structure. Consequently, it can be summarized that Sprayed FRP technique has prospect to improve the performance of structure.

This study evaluates the shear performance of reinforced concrete members with web opening reinforcement. A total of 4 reinforced concrete members with or without openings were cast then tested. The main variables investigated were with or without of web openings and with or without of web opening reinforcement, respectively. The proposed web opening reinforcement was a rectangle and rhombus-shaped spiral considering of construct ability. Test result showed that the proposed web reinforcement had improved shear capacity and ductility of the specimens. It was found that the web opening reinforcement proposed in this study had a positive effect on the shear strength and crack control of RC beams with web openings. In addition, it was confirmed that the analytical results by the current design codes underestimates the test results of the specimens with the proposed web opening reinforcement.

In optical burst switching(OBS) networks, the ingress edge router assembles packets in the same class queue into the appropriate size of burst. A burst control packet(BCP) is generated for channel reservation of corresponding data burst and sent earlier than the corresponding data burst with an offset time. Offset time is determined considering the number of hops from source to destination and the required quality of service(QoS). After offset time, the burst data is passed through tile pre-configured optical switches without any O/E/O conversion. But a failure in OBS networks may lead to the loss of bursts until the ingress nodes receive the failure indication signal. This results in a significant degradation in QoS. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant node architecture based on sub-carrier multiplexing to reduce the effects of failure in OBS networks. The Performance of the proposed fault-tolerant node architecture exhibits considerable improvement as compared with the previous ones.

Tetragonal zirconia polycrystals (TZPs) doped with $Y_{2}O_{3}$ and $Nb_{2}O_{5}$ were prepared by the conventional sintering to enhance fracture toughness and phase stability of TZPs without controlling the grain size. TZP composites were obtained by adding the transformable TZP to the non-transformable TZP in wt%. The monolithic tetragonal $ZrO_2$, same as the composite composition containing 15 wt% transformable TZP, sintered at $1550^{\circ}C$ for 10h in air, exhibited the fracture toughness of 9$MPam^{1/2}$ and no low-and high-temperature degradation at temperatures in the range of 220 to $1000^{\circ}C$ for 100h in air. The corresponding single composition was 90.24 mol% $ZrO_2$-5.31 mol% $Y_{2}O_{3}$-4.75 mol% $Nb_{2}O_{5}$. The microstructure observation revealed that the t-$ZrO_2$ grains grew grandually with sintering time and no microcraking and twinning were observed.

Self-reinforced silicon carbide was prepared by hot pressing and the control of starting phases of raw materials and its microstructural characteristics was investigated. The specimens with self-reinforced microstructure were obtained from the compacts with mixed compositions of ${\alpha}$-and ${\beta}$-SiC powders. Self-reinforced microstructure which is composed of large dispersed grains with rod-like shape and matrix with small equiaxed grains was formed by the transformation to the ${\alpha}$-SiC with 4H polytype for ${\beta}$-SiC and anisotropic grain growth during the heat treatment. Of all speimens the values of volume fraction maximum length and aspect ratio for large grains with rode-like types were the highest at the specimen with 50 vol% ${\beta}$-SiC in the starting SiC powder and therefore this specimen showed the highest fracture toughness due to the crack deflection by rod-like grains during crack propagation.

We measure the 3-dimensional temporal behavior of the light emitted from the discharge cell of a plasma display panel (PDP) by using a scanned point detecting system. The light signal detected by a PM tube is sent to the oscilloscope, and the oscilloscope is connected to a PC with GPIB. From the resultant temporal behaviors, we could analyze the discharge characteristics of the panel with a Ne-Xe (4%) mixing gas at a 400 torr pressure. The top view of the panel shows that discharge moves from the inner edge of the cathode electrode to the outer cathode electrode, forming an arc shape. The side view of the panel shows that the light is detected up to 150 $\mu\textrm{m}$ up the barrier rib. After a trigger pulse is applied, peak intensity is detected at 730 ns and peak intensity position is located at the center of the ITO electrodes.

최근 들어 금속물질을 나노미터 단위로 구성할 수 있는 기술이 진보하면서, 금속 나노입자에 의해 발생되는 표면 플라즈몬에 대해서도 다양한 분야의 관심이 집중되고 있다. 유전체 물질을 기지상으로 하는 금속:유전체 나노복합체에서 금속 나노입자는 자유전자들의 집단 진동인 국소표면 플라즈몬 공진(Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance, LSPR)현상에 의해 국부전기장을 증대 시키고, 가시광 및 적외선 영역에서 특성 광흡수 거동을 보인다. 이와 같은 광학적 특성은 금속 나노입자들의 크기, 형태, 그리고 나노입자들의 주변을 구성하는 기지상 물질의 종류에 의해 조절된다. 금속:유전체 나노복합체에 나타나는 이러한 특성은 단순장식코팅 뿐만 아니라 광의 효율적 운용과 광을 매개로 한 기능발현을 필요로 하는 디스플레이, 광학 스위칭 소재 및 태양전지의 효율 향상을 위한 광흡수층 등 매우 다양한 응용이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 굴절률을 갖는 재료들 중, 저굴절률을 갖는 SiO2와 고굴절률을 갖는 ZnS-SiO2를 기지상 재료로 선택하여 교번증착 스퍼터링법으로 Ag와 Au입자를 형성시켰다. Ag를 금속나노입자로 갖고, SiO2와 ZnS-SiO2를 기지상으로 하는 금속:유전체 나노복합체에서는 금속나노입자 형성에 따른 뚜렷한 표면 플라즈몬 공진 광흡수 피크가 관찰된 반면 Au나노입자는 기지상에 따라 각기 다른 광흡수 특성을 나타냈는데, SiO2기지상에서 명확한 광흡수 피크를 형성했던 경우와는 달리 ZnS-SiO2기지상에서는 특정파장에서의 흡수피크로 규정되기 어려운 넓은 파장범위에 걸친 완만한 광흡수 피크를 나타냈다. TEM 분석을 통해, ZnS-SiO2 기지상 내의 Au입자는 각각 독립되어 있는 Island형태가 아닌 유전체 기지상과 대칭적으로 혼합된 네트워크 형태의 Bruggeman 기하구조를 구성하고 있음을 확인하였고, 이는 Au입자가 형성되고 성장할 때 Au와 S의 높은 결합에너지로 인해 상당한 젖음 특성을 갖고 성장하였기 때문으로 판단됐다. 따라서 나노복합체를 구성하는 물질간의 광학적 특성뿐만 아니라 기지상 내에서의 금속입자의 성장거동에 대한 연구가 수반되었을 때, 금속:유전체 나노복합체의 표면 플라즈몬 공진 광흡수 특성을 보다 정확하게 제어할 수 있다.

음극아크증착과 스퍼터링을 동시에 사용한 하이브리드 공정으로 제조된 TiAlSiN 코팅층의 물성을 평가하였다. TiAlSiN 코팅층은 음극아크 소스에 Ti-Al 타겟을 장착하고 스퍼터링 소스에는 Si 타겟을 장착하여 아르곤과 질소 가스의 혼합가스 분위기에서 스테인리스(SUS304)와 초경(cemented carbide; WC-15wt.%Co) 기판 위에 제조되었다. 음극아크 소스에 인가되는 전류는 고정하고 스퍼터링 소스에 인가되는 전력을 조절하여 TiAlSiN 코팅층의 Si 함량을 제어하였다. TiAlSiN 코팅층의 Si 함량이 증가하면 코팅층의 구조가 주상정에서 비정질 구조로 변화한다. 이는 Si 함량이 증가하면 코팅층에 형성되는 알갱이 구조의 크기가 줄어들기 때문이다. X-선 회절 결과와 Scherrer's equation을 이용하여 Si 함량에 따른 알갱이 구조의 크기를 계산하면 Si이 없는 코팅층은 약 14 nm의 크기를 보이며 8 at.% 이상의 함량에서 약 2.5 nm로 포화된다. TiAlSiN 코팅층의 경도를 Si 함량에 따라 측정하면 Si 함량이 증가하면 경도도 증가하는 경향을 보이며 약 9 at.%의 Si 함량에서 3200 Hv로 최대가 되고 이후에는 감소한다. TiAlSiN이 코팅된 스테인리스 시편을 대기에서 열처리하고 시편 무게증가를 측정하여 코팅층의 내열성을 평가하였다. Si 함량이 증가하면 내열성도 향상되는데 14.4 at.%의 Si 함량에서 $700^{\circ}C$까지 무게 증가가 없으며 $900^{\circ}C$까지 0.43 mg의 증가를 보인다. 본 실험을 통해서 얻어진 TiAlSiN 코팅층은 비교적 높은 경도와 내열성을 확보하여 절상공구 보호막 코팅 소재 등으로 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In this paper, we propose a single-phase inverter system using new modulation method. The proposed system is composed of a buck-boost converter and an inverter and controlled by PWAM scheme. PWAM method is a new modulation method which is the incorporation of PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) and PAM(Pulse Amplitude Modulation) methods. The DC voltage which is the input voltage of buck-boost converter is converted into a variable DC voltage by buck-boost converter. Also, the variable DC voltage which is the output voltage of buck-boost converter is converted into a sinusoidal AC voltage by inverter. The input voltage of inverter is processed by PWM switching in PWM section and bypassed in PAM section. By using PWAM method, switching action is not existed in PAM section and thus the times of switching is reduced. As a result, the switching loss can be reduced.
