The major components of an engine are the cylinder block, cylinder head, crankshaft, connecting rod, and camshaft, which are more popularly known as the 5 C's. Thus, the engine shop usually consists of six sub-lines, including five machining lines and one assembly line. The flow line is the typical concept of the layout when the engineer designs the engine shop. This paper introduces a simulation study regarding the new crankshaft machining line in a Korean automotive factory. The major factors for designing the machining line are considered, and their effects on the system performance are evaluated with a three-dimensional(3D) simulation model that is developed with $QUEST^{(R)}$. The initial layout is analyzed using the simulation model, and we suggest some ideas for improvement.

광결정(photonic crystal)으로 광원의 자발 방출을 조절하면 문턱전류 없는 레이저, 고효율 다이오드, 파장 크기에서 손실 없이 급격히 꺾을 수 있는 광도파로 등 기존의 광소자에서 얻을 수 없는 좋은 성능을 얻을 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 이러한 광결정은 유전체를 파장정도 크기에서 주기적으로 배치시킨 인공적인 결정인데 고체에서 원자의 주기적인 배치로 전자가 전파할 수 없는 진동수 영역, 즉 밴드갭이 생기는 것과 유사하게 빛에 대해서 빛이 전파할 수 없는 진동수 영역인 광밴드갭(photonic bandgap)을 가진다. 그런데 관심있는 광영역에서 3차원 모든 방향으로 광밴드갭이 있는 구조물은 마이크로미터보다 작은 내부 구조를 가지는 복잡한 3차원 구조물로 제작이 어렵다. 이러한 어려움을 극복하기 위해 제작이 비교적 용이한 3차원 광밴드갭 구조물이 찾아지고 있다. 다른 접근 방법으로 평면(x-y)에서는 2차원 광밴드갭을 이용하고 제 3의 방향(z축)으로는 전반사를 이용하는 구조는 제작이 용이할 뿐만 아니라 처음부터 광원의 편광을 TE 또는 TM 모드로만 방출 되도록 준비해 줄 수 있으면 거의 3차원 광결정에서 얻을 수 있는 효과를 낼 수 있는 것으로 발표되었다.$^{(1)}$ 이 방법을 이용하여 최근에 미국의 캘리포니아 공과대학(Caltech)을 중심으로 레이저 동작을 보여 주었다.$^{(2.3)}$ 공기로 둘러싸인 얇은 유전체 평판에서 생기는 전반사와 평판 위에 2차원 삼각형살창(triangular lattice)에 구멍을 뚫어 얻는 2차원 광밴드갭을 이용해 3차원 공진모드를 형성하였다. 이러한 구조에서 1개만 구멍을 매워서 만든 공진기는 저온(143 K)에서 레이저 발진을 보였고 여러 개의 구멍을 매운 경우는 상온에서 펌프 펄스의 유지시간이 0.5% 인 경우 레이저가 동작하는 것을 보여주었다. 이는 구조내에서 열전도가 문제가 된다는 것을 의미하는데 위아래가 공기로 둘러 싸여 있어 발생한 열이 가는 유전체 네트웍을 통해서만 전달 될 수 있기 때문이다.

We investigated a LiNbO$_3$ based integrated-optic polarization controller with the Ti-indiffused waveguide along the z-axis utilizing the electro-optic effect. The device consists of a first quarter-wave (λ / 4) followed by a half-wave (λ / 2) and a second quarter-wave (λ / 4) wave-plate. We analyzed the amount of phase change and the transformation of the polarized mode as a function of the combination of wave-plates and of their applied voltages. The operation has been systematically measured utilizing a polarimeter and Poincare sphere. We confirmed that the fabricated device controls the transformations from any arbitrary input state of polarization (SOP) into any general output SOP.

This study was conducted te evaluate the effect of organotin compounds on rotifer(Brachionus plicatilis), which is important as food organism of aqua-cultured fish and shellfish. To evaluate the texicities of tributyltin compounds such as tributyltin chloride (TBTC), tributyltin oxide (TBTO), tributyltin acetate (TBTA) and tributyltin benzoate (TBTB), and triphenyltin compounds such as triphenyltin chloride (TPTC), triphenyltin fluoride (TPTF), triphenyltin hydroxide (TPTB), the survival rates of rotifer exposed to these compounds were measured as the 96 hr-$LC_{50}$. Exposed concentrations Were from 0.5 to 8 bbp depending on compounds. Based on 96 hr-$LC_{50}$ Value, the Order of toxicity in TBTs was TBTA(1.1 ppb)>TBTC (2.0)>TBTB (3.3)>TBTO(5.6), and that in TPTs was TPTF (1.0)$\geq$TPTC(1.1)>TPTH(1.6). Triphenyltin compounds were slightly higher toxic than tributyltins. The toxicity is likely to depend on alkyl or aryl group other than halogen or the other substituted radicals.

The vibration test system of SITC(Satellite Integration and Test Center) at KARI(Korea Aerospace Research Institute) has been used successfully for the environmental tests of a majority of korean space programs, such as KOMPSAT, Koreasat KITSAT, STSAT and KSR program since 1996. To meet the recent needs of large size test facility available for the vibrational tests of the huge launch vehicles and tole-communication satellites which will be developed in the near future, KARI undertook to construct the large size multi-electromagnetic shaking system with 3 $\times$ 3m head expander system. The new system will consist of three electromagnetic shakers which has 160 kN thrust force individually, and be able te sustain up to 8 tons test load and 300 kNm overturing moment. And to avoid the tremendous cost and effort to furnish the seismic block with large size and weight, it will adopt a Lin-E-Air type configuration with which the seismic block is less severe than a Solid-Truninon type. In addition, to fulfill the strong requirement of high overturning moment the additional guidance system including a central bearing system on a central support and several pad bearings around the head expander body is now considered. This paper describes the configuration and the design parameters of the multi-shaking system which is under development by KARI's engineers.

Effects of the post-annealing temperature of CeO$_2$ buffer layers on the properties of YBCO films on CeO$_2$-buffered sapphire were investigated. 45 nm-thick CeO$_2$ buffer layer was prepared in-situ on r-cut sapphire using an on-axis rf magnetron sputtering method, which was later post-annealed at temperatures between 950$^{\circ}$C and 1100$^{\circ}$C in an oxygen-flowing environment. YBCO films were prepared on CeO$_2$-buffered sapphire (CbS), for which the surface morphology, crystal structures and electrical properties of the YBCO films were studied. YBCO films on post-annealed CbS appeared to have better properties than those on as-grown CbS with regard to the morphological, structural and electrical properties when the YBCO films were prepared on CeO$_2$ buffer layer post-annealed at temperatures of 1000 - 1050$^{\circ}$C. A TE$_{011}$ mode rutileloaded cylindrical cavity resonators was fabricated with the YBCO films placed as the endplates, for which the unloaded Q of the resonator was measured. It turned out that the resonator with the endplates prepared from the YBCO films on postannealed CbS at 1000 $^{\circ}$C showed the highest unloaded Q with the value more than 8 ${\times}$ 10$^5$ at 30 K and 8.6 CHz, revealing that the YBCO films on post-annealed CbS at 1000$^{\circ}$C the temperature could be the lowest among the YBCO films on post-annealed CbS.

In this paper, I present the domestic development of near infrared camera systems for the ground telescope and the space satellite. These systems are the first infrared instruments made for astronomical observation in Korea. KASINICS (KASI Near Infrared Camera System) was developed to be installed on the 1.8m telescope of the Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory (BOAO) in Korea. KASINICS is equipped with a $512{\times}512$ InSb array enable L band observations as well as J, H, and Ks bands. The field-of-view of the array is $3.3'{\times}3.3'$ with a resolution of 0.39"/pixel. It employs an Offner relay optical system providing a cold stop to eliminate thermal background emission from the telescope structures. From the test observation, limiting magnitudes are J=17.6, H=17.5, Ks=16.1 and L(narrow)=10.0 mag at a signal-to-noise ratio of 10 in an integration time of 100 s. MIRIS (Multi-purpose InfraRed Imaging System) is the main payload of the STSAT-3 in Korea. MIRIS Space Observation Camera (SOC) covers the observation wavelength from $0.9{\mu}m$ to $2.0{\mu}m$ with a wide field of view $3.67^{\circ}{\times}3.67^{\circ}$. The PICNIC HgCdTe detector in a cold box is cooled down below 100K by a micro Stirling cooler of which cooling capacity is 220mW at 77K. MIRIS SOC adopts passive cooling technique to chill the telescope below 200K by pointing to the deep space (3K). The cooling mechanism employs a radiator, a Winston cone baffle, a thermal shield, MLI of 30 layers, and GFRP pipe support in the system. Opto-mechanical analysis was made in order to estimate and compensate possible stresses from the thermal contraction of mounting parts at cryogenic temperatures. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of mechanical structure was also conducted to ensure safety and stability in launching environments and in orbit. MIRIS SOC will mainly perform the Galactic plane survey with narrow band filters (Pa $\alpha$ and Pa $\alpha$ continuum) and CIB (Cosmic Infrared Background) observation with wide band filters (I and H) driven by a cryogenic stepping motor.

MIRIS 우주관측카메라는 과학기술위성 3호의 주탑재체로서 $0.8{\sim}2.0{\mu}m$의 근적외선영역에서 우주배경복사와 우리은하 평면의 Pa-$\alpha$ survey 관측을 목적으로 한다. 이러한 임무를 수행하기 위해 MIRIS 우주관측카메라에는 MCT(HgCdTe) IR 검출기가 사용되고 6개의 필터를 장착할 수 있는 필터휠이 설계되었으며, 열잡음을 줄이고 원하는 SNR을 얻기 위해 모두 100K 이하로 냉각이 요구된다. 효과적인 냉각 및 저온유지를 위해서 외부의 열을 1차적으로 차단하는 Cryostat 외부용기와 100K 이하로 냉각되는 내부 Cold Box의 이중구조를 가지는 Dewar가 설계 되었다. 내부 Cold Box의 냉각은 소형 stirling cooler로 이루어지고 외부의 열 유입량이 Cooler의 냉각용량을 넘지 않도록 설계하였다. Cryostat 외부용기는 radiation cooling으로 냉각되어 200K 이하의 온도를 유지하며 내부 Cold Box로의 열유입을 최소화하기 위해 GFRP(Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic) 단열 지지대와 MLI(Multi Layer Insulation)가 사용된다. 또한 100K으로 냉각시 필터고정부와 Cold Box 구조에서 일어날 수 있는 구조적인 피로도를 줄이고 열변형에 의한 문제를 방지하기 위한 고려가 설계에 포함되었다. FM(Flight Model)은 고진공 환경의 우주공간에서 문제가 발생하지 않도록 설계되었다. 또한 EQM 진동시험결과를 토대로 발사환경에서 발생하는 강한 진동을 견딜 수 있도록 FEM(Finite Elements Method) 구조해석을 통하여 필터고정부에 flexible structure 설계와 완충제를 추가하고 필터휠 구동부와 harness 고정부 및 cooler 지지부를 비롯한 전체 구조물에서 충분히 진동을 극복할 수 있도록 설계하였다.

This paper presents the performance evaluation of channel estimation algorithm using RLS algorithm lot W-CDMA reverse link over Rayleigh fading channels. By obtaining BER(Bit Error Rate) performance through computer simulations, the RLS(Recursive Least Square) algorithm is compared with the existing WMSA(Weighted Averaging)(K=1,3) and constant gain algorithm. The channel structure, modulation and pilot patterns are applied to the ARIB (Association of Radio Industries and Business) and 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) ITU-R proposal for the IMT-2000. The BER performance of RLS algorithm with linear interpolation is similar to that of WMSA(K=1) and slightly superior to that of constant gain algorithm at low Doppler frequencies. Also, RLS algorithm performance is better than that of the WMSA(K=1,3) and constant gain algorithms about 4dB at BER=2.0$\times$$10^{-2}$ and Doppler frequencies $F_D$=320Hz. With increasing Doppler frequency, therefore, the BER performance of RLS algorithm with linear interpolation is superior to WMSA(K=L.3) and constant rain algorithms.
