A shielded magnetoresistive (SMR) head which has double MR films and linearizes each other has been designed and studied by applying the transmission-line model. We have analyzed the yoke efficiency, bias efficiency and read efficiency of the SMR head. The read efficiency strongly depends on the height of the sensor and slightly on the other geometric parameters. The yoke and bias efficiencies vary with gap length, insulated layer thickness and relative permeability. A quasi-index reduction in the signal flux is observed when the displacement moves away from the medium.

Recent ULSI and multilevel structure trends in microelectronic devices minimize the line width down to a quarter micron and below, which results in the high current densities in thin film interconnections. Under high current densities, an EM(electromigration) induced failure becomes one of the critical problems in a microelectronic device. This study is to improve thin film interconnection materials by investigating the EM characteristics in PSG(phosphosilicate glass)/SiO$_2$ passivated Al-l%Si thin film interconnections. Straight line patterns, wide and narrow link type patterns, and meander type patterns, etc. were fabricated by a standard photholithography process. The main results are as follows. The current crowding effects result in the decrease of the lifetime in thin film interconnections. The electric field effects accelerate the decrease of lifetime in the double-layered thin film interconnections. The lifetime of interconnections also depends upon the current conditions of P.D.C.(pulsed direct current) frequencies applied at the same duty factor.

This is a Double-Track Railway tunnel in typical Tae-Gu black and gray shale forming part of the No.1 Line of the Tae-Gu Subway. The main fault zone at tunnel is a moderately to highly weathered and closely jointed zone, 0.5 m wide with associated paralled jointing which is slickensided and fractured. After excavation by blasting, the soft rocks should need to be reinforced with optimal supporting pattern which might be better redesigned through the consideration of the results of in-situ rock measurements at the field. Performances fo the field tests included Point Load Test, Schmidt Hammer Test, and field joint measurement gave the detail data for the optimum support design and safe excavation of the No.1 Line of Tae-Gu Subway at the No.1-7 consturction site adn the safety of this redesigned supports system was analysed by the FDM program FLAC.

This article presents techniques for improved estimation of symbol timing offset (STO) and carrier frequency offset (CFO) for dual-polarization (DP) orthogonal frequency division multiplex (DP-OFDM) systems. Recently, quaternion multiple-input multiple-output OFDM has been proposed for high spectral efficiency communication systems, which can flexibly explore different types of diversities such as space, time, frequency, and polarization. This article focuses on synchronization techniques for DP-OFDM systems using a cyclic prefix, where the application of quaternion algebra leads to new improved estimators. Simulations performed for DP system methods show faster reduction of STO estimator variance with a double-slope line in the logvariance line versus signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) plot compared with singlepolarization (SP) counterparts, and simulations for CFO estimates show a 3-dB gain of DP over SP estimates for same SNR values defined, respectively, for quaternion-valued or complex-valued signals. Cramer-Rao bounds for STO and CFO are derived for the synchronization methods, correlating with the observed gains of DP over SP OFDM systems.

We developed a new grid-based Monte Carlo code to trace far UV He II line photons that are incident on a thick H I region and subsequently transferred through Rayleigh and Raman scattering with atomic hydrogen. In particular, we consider a neutral region that is moving away from the He II emission source which is either monochromatic or is described by a Gaussian profile. The resultant Raman scattered He II line profiles from a monochromatic source are characterized by a double peaked core part with an extended Raman red tail that is attributed to multiple re-entry events. Complicated behaviors are observed in the case of a Gaussian He II source including the formation of a secondary red peak near the Balmer center dependent on the H I column density. A preliminary application of our results to the CFHT data of the planetary nebula IC 5117 is presented.

This research evaluated the different types of deck to pier connections effects (one or two elastomeric bearing lines and rigid) on a concrete bridges. Three-dimensional bridge models behavior with different deck to pier connections and different distances of two bearing lines were studied under the service load. Also, the detailed connection system with two elastomeric bearing lines was modeled to evaluate the effect of changing distance between two-lines. Results indicated that the proper location of elastomeric bearings has a major impact on the transferring forces to the substructure. Double elastomeric bearing lines have a behavior between one line and rigid connections. Transferring bending moment to the substructure in two-lines is more than the corresponding value of the one line. Moreover, an increase in the distance of two-lines lead to a significant increase in the rotational stiffness of the connection, and an analytical solution was investigated for their relation. In fact, the semi-rigidity effect of this connection and its change due to the distance of bearings should be considered in the design process.

1) The purpose of this study was to compare the forest survey by ground method with that by aerial photo method. 2) In this study, the forest type map was made by use of the radial line plotter and radial line triangulation method. 3) The difference between the area found by the forest type map above mentioned and that by compass surveying on the ground was none-significant. 4) On aerial photo the stratification was carried out very easily. 5) The following sampling methods were applied : line plot method, representative sampling method and stratified random sampling on the aerial photo. 6) In confirming sampling point the line plot method and the representative sampling method were easier than another. 7) As to stands volume the maximum value was given by stratification, and the minimum by line plot method.

If the transmission line voltage is greater than 500kV, audible noise (AN) and hum noise (HN) due to corona discharges on the conductor would be an important design factor for the conductor selection of transmission line. Also there is an aeolian noise: wind noise(WN) from the tower and the conductor due to wind. This paper presents the results of a statistical analysis of audible noise, hum noise, aeolian noise of 6-480mm$^{2}$ conductor bundle in KEPRI 765kV Test Transmission Line which was constructed to develop 765kV double circuit AC transmission line for the first time in the world. The result of the analysis shows that 6-480mm$^{2}$ conductor bundle and tower satisfy configuration the audible noise design criterion of 50dB(A).

We propose an efficient off-line electronic cash system based on the certificate issued by Certificate Authority. It satisfies all the basic requirements for electronic payment system such as cash unforgeability, cash anonymity, double spending detection, no framing, etc. Our proposed system is very computationally efficient in the sense that: (1) the number of exponentiation operation imposed on the user during withdrawal phase is much smaller than any existing off-line electronic cash schemes, (2) all the computation of user's during withdrawal phase can be performed by off-line pre-processing. So the proposed system is suitable to be implemented by smart cards in both memory and computation.

Thermal rating or lifetime evaluation for aged overhead transmission line becomes more important concerns with respect to keeping power delivery stable having proper capability. Both load rating and dip/clearance are essential factors to determine transmission capacity. In order to evaluate thermal rating and conductor lifetime for domestic transmission lines with double-circuit, the dip/ground clearance standards as well as the electrical equipment technical standard are examined. Conductor temperature and dip are calculated under the assumption of a contingency, and then, a method to up-rate load capacity is searched. As thermal rating and limit dip for aged conductor are properly evaluated, an improved strategy in order to guarantee the existing power system reliability is presented in this paper.
