In this paper, we analyze the inductive interference in conductive material around power transmission line. To compute induced eddy currents as well as electromagnetic fields, finite element method(FEM) is used for numerical calculation. The characteristics of conductive material such as gas pipeline, overhead guide wires, conducting earth and so on are taken account of FEM analysis. This research also shows that mitigation wire reduces amount of eddy current in buried gas pipe line.

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has been used for mapping the surface geomorphology of cloudy planets like Venus as well as the Earth. The cloud-free Mars is also going to be scanned by SAR in order to detect buried water channels and other features under the very shallow subsurface af the ground. According to the 'Mid and Long-term National Space Development Plan' of Korea, SAR satellites, in addition to the EO (Electro-Optical) satellites, are supposed to be developed in the frame of the KOMPSAT (Korean Multi-Purpose Satellite) program. Feasibility of utilizing a SAR payload on KOMPSAT platform has been studied by KARI in collaboration with Astrium U.K. The purpose of the ShR program is Scientific and Civil applications on the Earth. The study showed that KOMPSAT-2 platform can accommodate a small SAR like Astrium’s MicroSAR. In this paper, system aspects of the satellite design are presented, such as mission scenario, operation concept, and capabilities. The spacecraft design is also discussed and conclusion is followed.

The method for artificial groundwater recharge can be categorized into two groups, one is well method and the other one is scattering method. Underground piping method belongs to the latter group and it is to infiltrate water from porous pipes buried underground. This paper shows the result of indoor experiment and numerical analysis concerning this method. The purpose of the study is to make the infiltration aspects and groundwater recharge in underground piping method. We have fround that the recharge height is effect by the difference of water level and a distance of pipe laying.

Forward modelling of ground penetrating radar (GPR) data is implemented using a new finite element ray tracing technique. The method is different from conventional ray tracing techniques in that the radar cross section of buried targets, the effective area of the receiving antenna, and the attenuation along the raypath are computed. The forward models are used to understand radar signatures measured across various ground structures which are important in detecting engineering hazards at construction sites, void spaces beneath simulated road beds, as well as a learning tool to avoid pitfalls in radargram interpretation. Forward modelling of radar data also can be used in predicting possible structures present at cultural property sites.

The demand of the power and gas energy have been rapidly increasing with the industralization, therefore, the area where buried pipelines run parallel with the adjacent power lines and cross them increases in Seoul as well as other cities. These situation cause AC interference from the power lines. However, there aren't any standards to preserve the pipelines from AC interference in Korea. We just use other country's criteria directly. Other developed countries have used the various AC interference mitigation methods such as lumped grounding. cancellation wires and gradient control wires etc.. This paper introduces the steel plate method which is using for AC interference mitigation method in Korea and investigates the effects of mitigation methods through case study by computer simulation.

In this study, fossil liverwort (Hepaticae) of Thallites yabei (Kryshtofovich) Harris is described based on the newly obtained material from the Lower Cretaceous Nakdong Formation of Sindong Group, Korea. The thalli of T. yabei is ribbon-like, bifurcating at least three or four times, and has a distinct midrib. Although the thalloid plants are herbaceous with little hard part, the thalli of T. yabei is relatively well preserved to show the sequentially bifurcating pattern in the specimens occurred in the same fossil locality. Such characteristics indicate that they were probably buried in situ. The abundant occurrence of thalli plants also indicate that land was covered densely by them as one of the terrestrial land plant members, and flourished under the tall arbor trees in the humid environment during the Early Cretaceous in the Gyeongsang Basin.

Ground penetrating radar(GPR) uses radio waves to detect buried objects in any non-metallic material. Initially it was used to detect structures in ice. GPR has evolved to include the penetration of soils, rocks and man-made structures. GPR uses a sensitive detector to record weak radio waves reflected from objects embedded in the material under investigation. In this study, the GPR is applied to outside plant telecommunication facilities such as cable tunnels, manholes and underground conduits and model experiments to obtain radar characteristics. The thickness and soundness of tunnel lining can be evaluated, and the location of rebars and steel ribs can also be found effectively. The location of underground conduits as well as manholes can be found and the results of GPR give good coincidence with design drawings. In order to investigate the tunnel lining, the GPR mounted vehicle is developed and it is proved that the vehicle can save time and manpower.

The characteristics, transmission line height, conductive earth and mitigation wire are taken account of FEM analysis. This research also shows that mitigation wire reduces amount of eddy current in buried pipe line.

In order to remove minority carries of the base region at changing signal in conventional bipolar logic circuit, we made transistor which is composed of NPN transistor shortened buried layer under the Base region, PNP transistor which is merged in base, epi layer and substrate. Also the Ring-Oscillator for measuring transmission time-delay per gate was designed as well. In the result, we get amplitude of logic voltage of 200mV, the minimum of transmission delay-time of 211nS, and the minimum of transmission delay-time per gate of 7.26ns in AC characteristic output of Ring-Oscillator connected Gate.

We compared and analyzed ASER (Accelerated Soft Error Rate) for cell structures and metal plate capacitance in the fabricated 16M SRAM. Application of the BNW (Buried NWELL) lowered the ASER value compared to the normal well structure. By applying the metal plate capacitor with the BNW, the lowest ASER value can be obtained. The thinner oxide thickness of the metal plate capacitor provides higher capacitance and lower ASER value. The ASER is improved from 2200 FIT to 1000 FIT after sole application of the BNW. However, it is dramatically improved to 15 FIT once the metal plate capacitor is additionally applied.
