In this paper, we propose an MVA mode cell structure with improved optical characteristics. Our MVA cell has an electrode with fine-slits. Optical characteristics of our proposed structure were compared with those without fine-slits. Moreover, we varied the interval as well as the widths of fine-slits in order to appreciate the effect of fine-slits. Optical characteristics of these cells were calculated with 3DFEM solver, TechWiz LCD. It was confirmed that the transmittance can be improved by more than 7% with fine-slits.

This paper presents a design of a transmission line negative group delay (NGD) circuit with multiple pole characteristics. By inserting an additional transmission line into a conventional NGD circuit, the proposed circuit provides further design parameters to obtain wideband group delay (GD) and to help reduce signal attenuation. As a result, the number of gain compensating amplifiers can be reduced, which can contribute to stable operation when integrated into RF systems. The multiple pole characteristics can provide wider NGD bandwidth and can be obtained by connecting resonators with slightly different center frequencies separated by quarter-wavelength transmission lines. For experimental validation, an NGD circuit with two poles GD characteristic is designed, simulated, and measured.

At present, the Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) measures the horizontal solar irradiation with time in 33 areas. Among these measured data, this study analyzed the tendency of applying the new analysis method by using the horizontal solar irradiation with the time which was measured in 18 regions across the country for ten years from 2005 to 2014. The method applied to the analysis is to compare the value of the annual total horizontal solar irradiance for one year with the value of that for the previous year of each year, and give +1 when it is higher than the reference ratio, 0 if it is within the reference ratio, and -1 when it is lower than the reference ratio. The characteristics of each region and nationwide characteristics according to the change of each reference ratio were evaluated and analyzed. Through the analysis results, the analysis method applied in this study could be well describe the characteristics of the solar irradiance during some years.

The goal of this paper is to investigate the effects of out-of-plane deposition angle on product characteristics of a UV photo-curing process. Specimens are manufactured from a commercialized UV photo-curing machine, the NOBEL V1.0. The influence of the out-of-plane deposition angle of the specimen on surface characteristics, including morphology of the sloped surface, pick-to-pick distance of convex region, and roughness of the sloped surface, is examined via the observation of the sloped surface. In addition, the influence of the radius of curvature of the specimen on the surface roughness of the sloped surface is evaluated. The effects of the out-of-plane deposition angle on impact strength of specimens are investigated via Izod impact experiments. Finally, we discuss the influence of the out-of-plane deposition angle on failure characteristics of specimens for impact loads.

The principal objective of this paper was to evaluate the steering characteristics of a tandem tracked vehicle, each side of which features two tandem tracks, when crawling on extremely cohesive soft soil. The tandem tracked vehicle is assumed to be a rigid-body with 6-dof. The dynamic analysis program of the tandem tracked vehicle was developed via Newmark's method and the incremental-iterative method. A terra-mechanics model of extremely cohesive soft soil was implemented according to the relationships of normal pressure to sinkage, of shear resistance to shear displacement, and of dynamic sinkage to shear displacement. In order to simplify the characteristics of contact interaction between track segments and cohesive soft soil, the characteristics of soil are equated to the properties of intact soil. In an effort to evaluate the steering characteristics of a tandem tracked vehicle crawling on extremely cohesive soft soil, a series of dynamic simulations were conducted for a tandem tracked vehicle model with respect to the front and rear steering angle, the steering ratio, and the initial velocity.

Pseudo-static approach has been conventionally applied for the design of gravity type quay walls. In this method, seismic coefficient ($k_h$), expressed in terms of acceleration due to gravity, is used to convert the real dynamic behavior to an equivalent pseudo-static inertial force for seismic analysis and design. Therefore, the calculation of an appropriate $k_h$ considering frequency characteristics of input earthquake is critical for representing the real dynamic behavior. However, the definitions of $k_h$, which is used for simplified analysis in Korea, focuses only on convenience that is easy to use, and the frequency characteristics of input earthquake are not reflected in the $k_h$ definitions. This paper evaluates the influences of the frequency characteristics of input earthquake on $k_h$ by initially reviewing the $k_h$ definitions in the existing codes of Japan for port structures and then by performing a series of dynamic centrifuge tests on caisson gravity quay walls of different earthquake input motions (Ofunato, Hachinohe). A review of the existing codes and guidelines has shown that the $k_h$ values are differently estimated according to the frequency characteristics of input earthquake. On the other hand, based on the centrifuge tests, it was found that the permanent displacements of wall are more induced when long-period-dominant earthquake is applied.

Urban area is a representative environment of wireless channels in the mobile communication, building density has a different distribution depending on the location. Building density has affect to propagation prediction For this reason, building density is expected to affect to the channel characteristics, we need to analyze it. We measured channel characteristics in urban areas of Jeju island by channel sounder and $4{\times}4$ antenna. Channel characteristics considering the building density were derived based on the measured data in the urban area. In this paper, the measurement data is analyzed and channel characteristics are derived through MIMO Channel measurements at 700 MHz considering the building density in the urban area.

The thermal and electrical properties of the conductor are critical parametersfor the design and optimization of the superconducting magnet. This paper presents simulation code to analyze electrical and thermal stability characteristics of the second generation (2G) high-temperature superconductor (HTS) by varying copper stabilizer thickness. Two types of commercial 2G HTS coated conductor tapes, YBCO and GdBCO were used in this study. These samples were cooled by Liquid Nitrogen ($LN_2$) having boiling at 77.3 K and an equivalent electrical circuit model for them is choosen and analysed in details. Also, an over-current pulse test in which a current exceeding a critical current was performed. From the simulation results, the influences of the copper stabilizer thickness on the stability characteristics of these samples are presented.

Electrochemical migration phenomenon is correlated with ionization of anode electrode, and ionization of anode metal has similar mechanism with corrosion phenomenon. In this work, in-situ water drop test and evaluation of corrosion characteristics for SnPb solder alloys in $Na_2SO_4$ solutions were carried out to understand the fundamental electrochemical migration characteristics and to correlate each other. It was revealed that electrochemical migration behavior of SnPb solder alloys was closely related to the corrosion characteristics, and Sn Ivas primarily ionized in ${SO_4}{^2-}$ solutions. The quality of passive film formed at film surface seems to be critical not only for corrosion resistance but also for electrochemical migration resistance of solder alloys.

In the previous study, it is proved by numerical simulation that the baffle shaped as the porous plate installed in the inlet chambers improves the redistribution of the flow injecting to the tube bundles. In the present study, numerical simulation has been performed to investigate the effects of the flow distributors on the thermal characteristics of the shell and tube heat exchangers. The flow fields have been analysed by the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes solvers including the thermal conditions on the shell sides. The numerical results showed that the presence of the baffles improves the redistribution of the heat transfer to the tube bundles though the overall performance drop slightly on the present flow conditions.
