There is a two lane ECTS(Electronic Toll Collection System) that users can pass with 80kph high speed in SeoBusan Tall Gate. This system to be combined two hi-pass lanes for removing meddle-island have been operated successfully. But, the appearance of two Lane ETCS makes toll gate more complicated, so it is very important how to arrange effectively various tolling lanes. This study was trying to evaluate lane configuration for minimizing speed and speed deviation among all kinds of lanes including two Lane ETCS in seoul toll gate. That is, we selected all scenarios to be happened actually, and evaluated them using micro traffic simulation model (VISSIM). The results of this study showed that each alternative had a very different speed and speed deviation by lane each other, so we will be able to achieve effective operation and configuration of lanes in toll gate using scenario methodology.

As massive integration technology of transistors has been developing, multi-core circuit is fabricated on a silicon chip and a clock frequency is getting faster to meet the system requirement. But increasing the clock frequency can induce some problems to violate the operation of system such as clock synchronization, so it is very import to avoid metastability events to design digital chips. In this paper, metastability windows are measured by bisection method in H-spice depending on temperature, supply voltage, and the size of transmission gate with D-FF designed with 180nm CMOS process. The simulation results show that the metastability window(: MW) is slightly increasing to temperature and supply voltage, but is quadratic to the area of a transmission gate, and the best area ration of P and Ntransitor in transmission gate is P/N=4/2 to get the least MW.

Recently, a heavy rainfall under climate change causes the flood exceeded river's conveyance. Flood control methods under the limited river width are the increase of embankment, the construction of storage pockets and diversion channel, the dredging of river bed. Hwasun flood control reservoir of washland is designed as the storage pockets and the regulating gate for the control of water level. In this study, the propriety of design was investigated through hydraulic experiments for the circumstances to exclude the constant flood discharge during operation period. In the results, the over flow rate of side weir exceeded the flow of design and indicated to be able to discharge the designed flow in the regulating gate opened 1.1 m. The high velocity 7.1 m/s behind the gate has investigated to reduce under 3.3 m/s by the baffle block.

IGBTS are widely used for the industrial inverters in the mid power range at low voltage (440V$\~$660V) application. Advantageous features of the device are simple gate drive and high speed switching capability. Due to these advantages the application of IGBTS is enlarging into the high power application. However, to increase the power handling capacity at lower input voltage level, the current rating in each bridge arm must be enlarged. Therefore the parallel operation of IGBT devices is essentially needed. This paper describes the feasible parallel structures of the power circuit for the mid & the high power inverters and introduces the important design condition for the parallel operation of IGBT devices. To verify feasibility of the IGBT parallel operation, the feature of several IGBT devices (EUPEC, SEMIKRON's IGBT) are investigated and the power stacks are implemented and tested with these devices. The experimental results show the good characteristics for the parallel operation of IGBTS.

Sandbars formed by sediment transportation and sedimentation are some of the most important habitats for specific wildlife and they provide an aesthetic landscape in streams. The purpose of this study was to understand the successional process of the colonization and development of early vegetation over time on sandbars exposed by the opening of a gate at a downstream weir. We selected the following four study sites in the Geumgang River, South Korea: three weir-upstream sites with different gate-opening times and a control site that was not affected by weir operation. Changes in the structural characteristics and spatial distribution of the riparian vegetation on the sandbars exposed after opening the gate at the weir were surveyed according to the different exposure periods of the sandbars at the study sites. The newly formed sandbars accounted for more than 33% of the area of the existing floodplain in the three weir-upstream sites of the Geumgang River after opening the gate at the weir. Nine main plant communities were distributed on the exposed sandbars. These communities were classified as annual mesophytic, perennial hydrophytic, perennial hygrophytic, subtree, and tree vegetation based on their species traits. As the duration of exposure of the sandbar increased, the area of the bare sandbar and the annual herbaceous and perennial hydrophytic communities decreased, and the areas occupied by perennial hygrophytic, subtree, and tree communities increased. Changes in vegetation on the sandbar were classified into three types of succession according to the condition of the aquatic habitat before the gate-opening and the degree of physical disturbance caused by the water flow after the gate-opening. The types of succession were: 1) succession starting from hydrophytes in the lentic aquatic zone, 2) succession starting from annual herbaceous hygrophytes in the lotic aquatic zone, and 3) willow-dominated succession in the disturbed channel side. Our results suggested that the dynamics of successional changes in vegetation should be considered during weir operation to ecologically manage the habitats and landscape of the fluvial landforms, including sandbars in streams.

Numerical model tests are done in order to evaluate impact zone of low salinity water on outer region of the developing Saemankeum reservoir. Also saline mixing processes are investigated f3r the inner reservoir with consideration of Mankyoung and Donjin riverine flood discharges when sea water is passing freely through gate. In these analyses 2-d ADCIRC, 3-d TIDED3D and CE-QUAL-ICM models are used. Through models tests, it is found that inner reservoir mixing process caused by inflow of outer sea water occurs gradually. It takes at least one month for complete mixing on Mankyoung part and 6 month on Dongjin part of the reservoir. When Sinsi or Garyeok gates are opened to control inner reservoir level, discharging velocities decrease exponentially from the gates, but show very strong currents of 0.5m/sec to the 10Km region apart. These results imply that hydrodynamic circulation and ecosystem of frontal region of the Saemankeum dike might be affected in amount by gate operations, since low saline inner waters are discharged periodically at ebb tide according to tidal level.

The detention reservoir is a hydraulic structure that constructs a levee on the inland of river and sets up side weir in a section of the levee, and this facility stores a part of the flood volume in case of a flood event over a certain scale. In order to optimize the operation of detention reservoir, it is necessary to review the linkage with existing facilities in the river. In this study, the effect of water level reduction and the flow distribution was analyzed according to the location of the side weir in the detention reservoir considering the run-of-the-river gate. Two radial gates were installed in the experimental channel, and the water level in channel and the overflow of weir were measured by moving the location of the side weir upstream from the gate. As a results of experiment, it was confirmed that the water level reduction is more remarkable as the location of the side weir was closer to the gate, and the effect of flow distribution is not greatly changed. When two or more side weirs were operated, it is confirmed that the sufficient storage space was secured and the water level reduction effect with the location of the side weir is not large. In addition, the water level reduction rate according to the location of the side weir was estimated by empirical formula and it is provided as basic data that can be used in the planning of the detention reservoir.

We have monitored nutrients, chlorophyll, suspended solids, and salinity in the Keum Estuary to understand the temporal fluctuation of oceanographic parameters and to illustrate any variation due to the gate operation of the Keum River Dike from June, 1995 to September, 1996, approximately for 500 days. Tidal range is used as the key factor to explain the fluctuations and atmospheric parameters such as air temperature, wind velocity and rainfall are also used supplementally. The fresh water discharge was selected as another major impact on the estuarine environment due to the gate operation of the Keum Dike. In addition, daily variation by tidal cycle was investigated twice in April and July, 1996. In diurnal variation, salinity was positively correlated with tidal elevation, whereas negatively correlated with nutrients. Relatively high suspended solid and chlorophyll contents were found in the period between high and low tide. In 500 days continuous observations, salinity was negatively correlated with the volume of fresh-water discharge, but positively correlated with nutrients. A major chlorophyll bloom occurred in spring. A similar pattern of variation was observed between suspended solid and the neap-spring tidal cycle. In comparison with the data of the Keurn Estuary before the gate operation of the Keum River dike, fresh-water discharge predominated other environmental factors during the rainy season. In addition, the velocity of tidal current and the concentration of suspended solid were decreased, while nutrients and chlorophyll contents were increased.

AlGaN/GaN based HfO₂ MOSHEMT (metal oxide semiconductor high electron transistor) with different gate recess depth was simulate to demonstrate a successful normally-off operation of the transistor. Three types of the HEMT structures including a conventional HEMT, a gate-recessed HEMT with 3 nm thick AlGaN layer, and MIS-HEMT without AlGaN layer in the gate region. The conventional HEMT showed a normally-on characteristics with a drain current of 0.35 A at V_G = 0 V and V_DS = 15 V. The recessed HEMT with 3 nm AlGaN layer exhibited a decreased drain current of 0.15 A under the same bias condition due to the decrease of electron concentration in 2DEG (2-dimensional electron gas) channel. For the last HEMT structure, distinctive normally- off behavior of the transistor was observed, and the turn-on voltage was shifted to 0 V.

Amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin-film transistors (TFTs) are fabricated on flexible organic polymer foil substrates. As-fabricated performance, electrical bias-stability at elevated temperatures, electrical response under mechanical flexing, and prolonged mechanical stability of the TFTs are studied. TFTs made on plastic at ultra low process temperatures of $150^{\circ}C$ show initial electrical performance like TFTs made on glass but large gate-bias stress instability. An abnormal saturation of the instability against operation temperature is observed.
