Among aftertreatment devices which reduce exhaust gas of diesel engine, diesel oxidation catalyst(DOC) with high reduction efficiency for gaseous matter and particulate matter is now being studied actively. In this study, an experiment was conducted to analyze the effects of low sulfur diesel fuel in heavy duty diesel engine equipped with DOC. We tested to estimate change of engine performance for the low and high sulfur diesel fuels in a 11,000cc diesel engine equipped with DOC. We conducted test to estimate the reduction efficiency of exhaust gas in D-13 mode of heavy duty diesel regulation mode and in smoke opacity mode for two samples of high sulfur content (0.2%) and low sulfur content(0.05%)

In this study, an effective method to estimate the fundamental frequencies of co-axial cylinders immersed in fluid is proposed. The proposed method makes use of the equivalent mass or density that is derived from the added mass matrix caused by the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) phenomenon. The equivalent mass is defined from the added mass matrix based on a 2-D potential flow theory. The theory on two co-axial cylinders extended to the case of three cylinders. To prove the validity of the proposed method, the eigenvalue analyses upon coaxial cylinders coupled with fluid gaps are peformed using the equivalent mass. The analyses results upon various fluid gap is conditions reveal that the present method could provide accurate frequencies and be suitable for expecting the fundamental frequencies of fluid coupled cylinders in beam mode vibration.

In this paper, the simplified design methodology for rotation of polarization plane using a square waveguide is proposed. In order to optimize the characteristics of $180^{\circ}$ polarizer operating from 14.3GHz to 14.8GHz in Ku-band, the modified mode matching method and piecewise power tower interpolation are applied to the polarizer design. The optimized results show that the frequency bandwidth in VSWR<2 has covered 500MHz in the Ku-band and phase difference between two orthogonal modes $TE_{10}$and $TE_{01}$ is $180^{\circ}{\pm}1^{\circ}$ in the range of 14.3GHz~14.8GHz. The cross polarization loss has obtained below 40dB and the insertion loss has 0.1dB in the passband. Therefore, the proposed polarizer is suitable for practical Ku-band system requiring the low VSWR and compact size.

Chest digital tomosynthesis was the most advanced digital radiography technology, but it was higher patient dose than conventional chest radiography. Thus we tried to reduce a patient dose of chest digital tomosynthesis and evaluated its image quality. Result shows that radiation dose such as ESD, DAP and ED were 1.95 mGy, 17.66 $dGycm^2$ and 0.133 mSv respectively in default setting and 0.312 mGy, 2.27 $dGy.cm^2$ and 0.052 mSv in use additional filter, respectively. Doses were decrease 66.2%, 73.6% and 57.4% in ESD, DAP and ED, respectively. At the image quality assessment, overall sensitivities of use additional filter for nodule detection were not inferior to default mode for peripheral, central and peripheral micro nodules. However, sensitivity of low dose mode was significantly inferior to the default for central micro-nodules(p < .001).

Multi-view video coding (MVC) based on H.264/AVC encodes multiple views efficiently by using a prediction scheme that exploits inter-view correlation among multiple views. However, with the increase of the number of views and use of inter-view prediction among views, total encoding time will be increased in multiview video coding. In this paper, we propose a fast mode decision using both MB(Macroblock)-based region segmentation information corresponding to each view in multiple views and global disparity vector among views in order to reduce encoding time. The proposed method achieves on average 40% reduction of total encoding time with the objective video quality degradation of about 0.04 dB peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) by using joint multi-view video model (JMVM) 4.0 that is the reference software of the multiview video coding standard.

A differential-gain-controlled LNA is designed and implemented in 0.18 um CMOS technology for $3.1{\sim}4.8GHz$ UWB system. In high gain mode, measurements show a differential power gain of $14.1{\sim}15.8dB,\;13.3{\sim}15dB$, respectably, an input return loss higher then 10dB, an input IP3 of -19.3 dBm, a noise figure of $4.85{\sim}5.09dB$, while consuming only 19.8 mW of power from a 1.8V DC supply. In low gain mode, measurements show a differential power gain of $-6.1{\sim}-4.2dB,\;-7.6{\sim}-5.6dB$, respectably, an input return loss higher then 10dB, an input IP3 of -1.45 dBm, a noise figure of $8.8{\sim}10.3dB$, while consuming only 5.4mW of power from a 1.8V DC supply.

New uvby photoelectric photometry was carried out for a $\delta$ Scuti variable, HR1170. By applying the Fourier method and the linear least square method, three frequencies were derived: $f_1=10.06134c/d$ ($P_1=0.^d0994$). $f_2=11.91754c/d$ ($P_2=0.^d0839$). $f_3=18.96776c/d$ ($P_3=0.^d0527$). From the observed pulsational constants and from the phase difference and amplitude ratios for color(b-y) and magnitude y. three different pulsation modes (n, l) of $f_1(0,0)$, $f_2(1,2)$, $f_3(3,2)$ are deduced, indicating the existence of nonradial mode in HR1170. Some physical parameters indicate that HR1170 is evolving at the stage of H-shell burning.

It is a present situation that the control on automobile emission is getting more restrictive and also the regulations for emission are changing greatly up to level of those advanced foreign countries. Specially, it has been many years that exhaust gases from gasoline automobile rather than from diesel is the major object concerned by Korea and other countries, and it is strongly required on the reduction techniques on harmful NOx and PM among those compositions. Thus, this research focused on the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) and the target for this research is heavy-duty turbo-diesel engine with Cooled EGR. Furthermore, this research has been made efforts to accomplish the regulation on emission for heavy duty diesel engine.

The effects of EGR on emissions were investigated by using a six-cylinder, 8 litre, turbo-charged, heavy-duty diesel engine with a low pressure route EGR system. The experiments were performed at various engine loads while the EGR rates were set from 0% to 30%. Hot and cooled EGR are achieved without cooling and with cooling respectively. To verify the possibility of EGR technology for the applications, test were performed with steady state test cycle. It was found that the exhaust emissions with the EGR system resulted in a very large reduction in oxides of nitrogen at the expense of higher smoke and PM emissions. Increasing the EGR rate leads to deteriorating specific fuel consumption and power at lower speed and higher load. Also, the reduction rates of NOx emissions for hot and cooled EGR are similar.
