In this paper, injection-locking characteristics versus active layer structures in Fabry-Perot laser diodes (FP-LD) are compared. TE and TM gain spectra and peak gains versus carrier density in polarized and unpolarized multiple quantum well structures and in an unpolarized bulk structure are calculated. The calculated gain parameters are applied to a time-domain large-signal model to simulate the injection-locking characteristics. The results show that RIN in unpolarized FD-LDs is about 3 dB lower than that in a polarized FP-LD and that the eye characteristics of the unpolarized FP-LD are much better than those of the polarized FP-LD.

In this paper, we propose a method to keep the robot at a distance of 30 to 45cm from the user in consideration of each individual's minimum area and inconvenience by using a 2D LiDAR sensor LDS-01 as the secondary sensor along with a QR code. First, the robot determines the brightness of the video and the presence of a QR code. If the light is bright and there is a QR code due to human's presence, the range of the 2D LiDAR sensor is set based on the position of the QR code in the captured image to find and follow the correct target. On the other hand, when the robot does not recognize the QR code due to the low light, the target is followed using a database that stores obstacles and human actions made before the experiment using only the 2D LiDAR sensor. As a result, our robot can follow the target person in four situations based on nine locations with seven types of motion.

In many drinking water treatment plants, chlorination process is one of the main techniques used for the disinfection of water. This disinfecting treatment leads to the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) such as haloacetonitriles (HANs), trihalomethanes (THMs), haloacetic acids (HAAs). In this study, headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS- SPME) technique was applied for the analysis of HANs in drinking water. The effects of experimental parameters such as selection of SPME fiber, the addition of salts, magnetic stirring, extraction temperature, extraction time and desorption time on the analysis were investigated. Analytical parameters such as linearity, repeatability and detection limits were also evaluated. The $50/30{\mu}m$-divinylbenzene/carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane fiber, extraction time of 30 minutes, extraction temperature of $20^{\circ}C$ and desorption time of 1 minute at $260^{\circ}C$ were the optimal experimental conditions for the analysis of HANs. The correlation coefficients ($r^2$) for HANs was 0.9979~0.9991, respectively. The relative standard deviations (%RSD) for HANs was 2.3~7.6%, respectively. Detection limits (LDs) for HANs was $0.01{\sim}0.5{\mu}g/L$, respectively.

Dynamic textures are videos that exhibit a stationary property with respect to time (i.e., they have patterns that repeat themselves over a large number of frames). These patterns can easily be tracked by a linear dynamic system. In this paper, a model that identifies the underlying linear dynamic system using wavelet coefficients, rather than a raw sequence, is proposed. Content based threshold filtering based on Set Partitioning in a Hierarchical Tree (SPIHT) helps to get another representation of the same frames that only have low frequency components. The main idea of this paper is to apply SPIHT based threshold filtering on different bands of wavelet transform so as to have more significant information in fewer parameters for singular value decomposition (SVD). In this case, more flexibility is given for the component selection, as SVD is independently applied to the different bands of frames of a dynamic texture. To minimize the time complexity, the proposed model is implemented on a graphics processing unit (GPU). Test results show that the proposed dynamic system, along with a discrete wavelet and SPIHT, achieve a highly compact model with better visual quality, than the available LDS, Fourier descriptor model, and higher-order SVD (HOSVD).

A new improved inviscid separation model to calculate the mean flow past circular cylinders is proposed. The wake region is modeled by a pair of vortex sheets which emerge from the separation points and are allowed to move freely with the local stream. The vortex strength assumes a constant value for some initial distance which is related to the pressure drag and gradually decreases to zero as the sheet moves farther away from the body. This vorticity distribution automatically takes care of the length parameter which has been one of the deficiencies in the existing models. The procedure is tested against various experimental data and the agreement is quite good for both sub and super-critical regimes. The comparison with an existing model is also given.

이전의 연구에서 우리는 선응집 기술을 적용한 중질탄산칼슘의 크기에 따른 수초지의 물성을 평가하였다. 이때 선응집 기술이 적용된 충전물의 입도와 분포를 측정하기 위해 light diffraction spectroscopy (LDS) 가 사용되었다. 경질탄산칼슘과 양이온성 고분자의 흡착 현상을 알아보기 위한 이번 연구에도 LDS가 사용되었으며, 일회성으로 입자의 크기와 분포를 측정하는 것에서 더 나아가 시간의 흐름에 따라 응집체의 형성과 파괴, 재성장을 관찰할 수 있는 도구로서 역할 하였다. 본 연구에서 우리는 세 가지 경우로 나누어 경질탄산칼슘의 응집 현상을 관찰하였다. 첫째로 경질탄산칼슘에 흡착되는 양이온성 고분자의 특성, 분자량과 전하밀도, 을 달리하여 응집체의 성장과 파괴를 관찰하였다. 둘째, 양이온성 고분자로 중질탄산칼슘을 응집시켜, 경질탄산칼슘 응집체의 경우와 입도와 전단 안정성 등을 비교하였다. 마지막으로 나노 크기의 실리카 투입이, 마이크로 크기의 경질탄산칼슘 응집체가 강한 전단에 의해 파괴되었을 때, 응집체의 전단 안정성이나 재성장 측면에 도움을 주는지 관찰하였다. 내첨용 충전물로써 경질탄산칼슘의 사용이 전 세계적으로 늘고 있는 시점에서 양이온성 고분자 첨가에 의한 경질탄산칼슘의 응집 현상을 관찰하는 것은 일반적인 제지 공정에서 경질탄산칼슘의 거동을 이해하는데 도움이 될 뿐만 아니라, 내첨용 충전물 첨가에 따른 종이의 강도 저하 방지를 위한 선응집 기술의 적용에도 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 생각한다.

Proline-rich proteins (PRPs) are major components of human saliva. In order to know the biological roles of PRPs, we explored the expression pattern and functional protein structures of PRPs by the immunohistochemical and various molecular biological methods. Polyclonal antibody against human gPRP was generated from rabbit by the injection of oral exfoliated cells specially treated by urea and SDS buffer. The PRPs began to be expressed both in the acinar cells and ductal cells from the EIDS (Early Intermediate Developmental Stage) of fetal salivary glands and became intense in the salivary epithelium in the LDS (Late Developmental Stage) and adult salivary glands. The polyclonal antibody against the gPRP showed the cross-reactivity with aPRP and bPRP, these results were relevant to the high homology among subtypes of PRP. However, the simulated protein structures of PRPs showed the characteristic repetitive whorling domains except the N-terminal signal peptide. The whorling domains were also contained the multiple amino acids of glutamine and glycine, which may provide the receptor binding or cross-linking sites of PRPs.

In this work, a metal-ligand solution (Cu-EDTA) was prepared based on the molecular precursor method and the solution was spin-coated onto 3D printed flexible photosensitive resin sheets. After being processed by microwave, a laser with a wavelength of 355 nm was utilized to scan the spin-coated sheets and then the sheets were immersed in an electroless copper plating solution to deposit copper wires. With the help of microwave processing, the adhesion between copper wires and substrate was improved which should result from the increase of roughness, decrease of contact angle and the consistent orientation of coated film according to the results of 3D profilometer and SEM. XPS results showed that copper seeds formed after laser scanning. Using the 3D printed flexible sheets as cathode and galvanized iron as anode, electrochemical machining was conducted.

Pipeline is making the most use of transportation of petroleum products on the land. But due to tremendous accident or environmental disaster by oil pipeline leak or pipeline stolen, leak detection systems have been used for preventing it. Leak detection method based on negative pressure wave has been used at the long distance pipeline. But even if it has showed good leak detection quality, due to making a lot of false alarm, it has weak point that disturbs concentration to system. This study suggests algorithm and method of using volume balance to decrease false-alarm of pipeline leak detection system based on negative pressure wave.

Compounds of Ga, such as gallium oxide (Ga2O3) and gallium nitride (GaN), are of interest due to its unique properties in semiconductor application. In particular, GaN has the potentially application for optoelectronic device such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes (LDs) [1]. Nanoparticle is an interesting material due to its unique properties compared to the bulk equivalents. In this report, we develop a synthesizing method for gallium nitride nanoparticle using non-thermal plasma. For gallium source, the gallium is heated by thermal conduction of tungsten boat which is heated by eddy current induced from RF current in antenna. Nitrogen source for nanoparticle synthesis are from inductively coupled plasma with N2 gas. The synthesized nano particles are analyzed using field-emission scanning microscope (FESEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The synthesized particles are investigated and discussed in wide range of experiment conditions such as flow rate, pressure and RF power.
