Induction heating of float metal products has an increasing importance in many applications, because it generates the heat within workpiece itself and provides high power densities and productivity. In this study, the induction heating of a steel plate to simulate the line heating is investigated by means of the Finite Element Analysis of the magnetic field and temperature distribution. A numerical model is used to calculate temperature distribution within the steel plate during the induction heating with a specially designed inductor. The effects of materital properties depending on the temperature and magnetic field are taken into consideration in an iterative manner. The simulation results show good magnetic field with experimental data and provide good understanding of the process. Since the numerical model demonstrates to be suitable for analysis of induction heating process, the effects of air gap and frequency on magnetic-flux and power-density distribution are also investigated. It is revealed that these process parameters have an important roles on the electro-magnetic field and power-density distribution governing the temperature distribution of the plate.

This study was carried out the laboratory tests and field plate load test in order to evaluate the reinforcement effect of geocell for road construction. The geocell-reinforced subgrade shows the increment of cohesion and friction angle with comprison of non-reinforced subgrade. In addition, the field plate load test was performed on the geocell-reinforced subgrade to estimate the bearing capacity of soil. The direct shear test was conducted with utilizing a large-scale shear box to evaluate the internal soil friction angle with geocell reinforcement. The number of cells in the geocell system is varied to investigate the effect of soil reinforcement. The theoretical bearing capacity of subgrade soil with and without geocell reinforcement was estimated by using the soil internal friction angle. The field plate load tests were also conducted to estimate the bearing capacity with geocell reinforcement. It is found out that the bearing capacity of geocell-reinforced subgrade gives 2 times higher value than that of unreinforced subgrade soil. In the future, the reinforcement effect of the geocell rigidity and load-balancing effect of the geocells should be evaluated.

The catalyst layer design is one of the most important factors to enhance the performance of PEMFC(Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell) system. The hydrophobic and ion conductive type is studied for the MEA(Membrane Electrolyte Assembly). It is found that those have some limitations for performance enhancement when they are used separately. Thus, the dual catalyst type, a mixed model, is developed for the better MEA performance. In the meantime, the design of flow field plate is subsequently carried out in order to give more enhanced output during its operation. The conductivity of flow field plate showed better performance in the case of manufactured by the more compressed process(20MPa) than by the less compressed process(10MPa). The micro-structure of the flow field plate is examined in details using SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) to analyse the effects on the different compression processes.

In this paper, the magnetic field influence on the wave propagation characteristics of graphene nanosheets is examined within the frame work of a two-variable plate theory. The small-scale effect is taken into consideration based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory. For more accurate analysis of graphene sheets, the proposed theory contains two scale parameters related to the nonlocal and strain gradient effects. A derivation of the differential equation is conducted, employing extended principle of Hamilton and solved my means of analytical solution. A refined trigonometric two-variable plate theory is employed in Kinematic relations. The scattering relation of wave propagation in solid bodies which captures the relation of wave number and the resultant frequency is also investigated. According to the numerical results, it is revealed that the proposed modeling can provide accurate wave dispersion results of the graphene nanosheets as compared to some cases in the literature. It is shown that the wave dispersion characteristics of graphene sheets are influenced by magnetic field, elastic foundation and nonlocal parameters. Numerical results are presented to serve as benchmarks for future analyses of graphene nanosheets.

Field measurements were conducted to analysis dynamic characteristics of existing steel plate girder railway bridges without ballast. Three bridges which have 9m, 12m, 18m span length in Kyoung-Bu and Ho-Nam Line were selected for test. According to the each bridge, dynamic vertical deflections and vertical and horizontal accelerations were measured. Natural frequencies, vertical deflections and accelerations obtained from field tests were compared with the limit value specified in the UC, Japanese and Korean railway bridge specification.

To investigate the most important factors affecting the mobility of power tiller and to find the method which can be used for predicting the mobility of power tiller in soft paddy field, a series of field experiment was performed with two models of power tiller (8ps and 6ps diesel). From the results obtained throughout field experiment, the following conclusions were derived. 1. The wheel sinkage of power tiller during both traveling and field operations, which mainly influence the mobility, could be predicted from both plate ($50{\times}100mm$) sinkage and soil cone index (30-degree cone with 2 and $6cm^2$ base area). 2. Prediction of wheel sinkage from the rectangular plate sinkage was found to be more suitable compared with the cone index. 3. The upper limit of rectangular plate sinkage was found as 15 centimeter for operation of power tiller in muddy field which is equivalent of $1kg/cm^2$ of $2cm^2$ cone index value.

본 논문에서는 고출력 고이득 특성을 갖는 고전자이동도 트랜지스터 (high-electron mobility transistor, HEMT)를 구현하기 위하여 계단형 구조의 게이트 전극을 갖는 AlGaN/GaN HEMT를 제안하였고, 소자의 DC 특성의 향상 가능성을 확인하기 위하여 단일 게이트 전극을 갖는 HEMT 및 field-plate 구조의 게이트 전극을 갖는 HEMT 소자와의 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 상용 시뮬레이터를 통해 시뮬레이션 결과, 본 연구에서 제안한 계단형 구조의 게이트 전극을 갖는 AlGaN/GaN HEMT는 드레인 전압의 인가 시, 소자의 내부에서 발생하는 전계가 단일 게이트 전극을 갖는 HEMT에 비해 약 70% 정도 감소하는 특성을 갖는 것을 확인하였고, 전달이득 (transconductance, $g_m$) 특성 역시 단일 게이트 전극구조의 HEMT나 field-plate 구조를 삽입한 HEMT에 비해 약 11.4% 정도 향상된 우수한 DC 특성을 갖는 것을 확인하였다.

In this paper, a high frequency method is developed which combines the uniform Geometrical Theory of Diffraction(GTD) and the Aperture Integration(AI) to analyze electromagnetic plane wave scattering by a perfectly-conducting, open-ended, semi-infinite parallel plate waveguide with a uniform layer of absorbing material on its inner wall, and with a slanted planar termination inside. In this method, first, the field of an arbitary point inside the paraller plate waveguide is computed by the GTD. Second, the field scattered into exterior region by the waveguide is found using the equivalent current, which can be obtaind from the aperture field of the waveguide and using the AI. Numerical results based on this GTD method are presented and compared with those based on the mode matching method.

A higher order zig-zag plate theory is developed to refine accurately predict fully coupled of the mechanical, thermal, and electric behaviors. Both the displacement and temperature fields through the thickness are constructed by superimposing linear zig-zag field to the smooth globally cubic varying field. Smooth parabolic distribution through the thickness is assumed in the transverse deflection in order to consider transverse normal deformation. Linear zig-zag form is adopted in the electric field. The layer-dependent degrees of freedom of displacement and temperature fields are expressed in terms of reference primary degrees of freedom by applying interface continuity conditions as well as bounding surface conditions of transverse shear stresses and transverse heat flux The numerical examples of coupled and uncoupled analysis are demonstrated the accuracy and efficiency of the present theory. The present theory is suitable for the predictions of fully coupled behaviors of thick smart composite plate under mechanical, thermal, and electric loadings.
