With a development of modern industry, demand for electric power is rapidly increasing and the capacity of power transfer is required to become bigger and bigger. At power station, the high-voltage power cable is used as the only method in order to transfer electric power. In this paper, we have analyzed the deterioration characteristics of 6.6kV power cable systems in operation. For the time duration of 2000 days, we have measured the cable in operation in order to extract the data for the deterioration characteristics. By analyzing the data by means of several steps of filtering processes, we could obtain the linear relations of insulation resistances as a function of time. Furthermore, we can verify that the progress characteristics in deterioration process of 6.6kV power cable systems follows the process of heat deterioration.

The objectives of this investigation were to develop an improved analytical method and to review with respect to experimental parameters and thermo-physical properties influencing the freezing time prediction. The results indicate that the relationship between freezing time and product size is dependent on the surface heat transfer coefficient. As the magnitude of surface heat transfer coefficient decreases, the influence of product size on freezing time becomes more profound. But the freezing time does decrease slightly as the coefficients are increased to values greater than 150 $w/m^2^{\circ}C$. In addition, influence of thermo-physical properties on the freezing time prediction shown generally density, water content, specific heat and thermal conductivity, in order of % difference. Multiple linear regression equation for freezing time prediction were obtained with respect to 4 different food materials with varying thickness.

The Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science (KRISS) established a new standard of the absorbed dose to water in LINAC X-ray beams. To confirm the equivalence of the new standard with other national metrology institutes (NMIs), a bilateral comparison study of the absorbed dose to water in high energy X-ray beams was performed between the KRISS and the National Metrology Institute of Japan (NMIJ). The comparison was made in-directly. Three transfer chambers were calibrated in the high energy X-ray beams by both laboratories and the calibration coefficients were compared. The average ratios of the calibration coefficients of the three transfer chambers obtained by the KRISS to those obtained by the NMIJ were 1.004, 1.006, 1.006, 1.007 for 6, 10, 15 and 18 MV X-ray beams, respectively. The calibration coefficients obtained at the KRISS were higher than those at the NMIJ but they were in good agreement within the expanded uncertainty of 1.0% (k = 2). The results of this study will be used as the evidence for the KRISS standard being comparable with those of other NMIs, temporarily, in the interim period up to finalizing a key comparison study, BIPM.RI(I)-K6 managed by the Consultative Committee for Ionizing Radiation.

As a part of the KIAPS Observation Processing System (KOPS), we have developed the modules of satellite radiance data pre-processing and quality control, which include observation operators to interpolate model state variables into radiances in observation space. AMSU-A (Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A) level-1d radiance data have been extracted using the BUFR (Binary Universal Form for the Representation of meteorological data) decoder and a first guess has been calculated with RTTOV (Radiative Transfer for TIROS Operational Vertical Sounder) version 10.2. For initial quality checks, the pixels contaminated by large amounts of cloud liquid water, heavy precipitation, and sea ice have been removed. Channels for assimilation, rejection, or monitoring have been respectively selected for different surface types since the errors from the skin temperature are caused by inaccurate surface emissivity. Correcting the bias caused by errors in the instruments and radiative transfer model is crucial in radiance data pre-processing. We have developed bias correction modules in two steps based on 30-day innovation statistics (observed radiance minus background; O-B). The scan bias correction has been calculated individually for each channel, satellite, and scan position. Then a multiple linear regression of the scan-bias-corrected innovations with several predictors has been employed to correct the airmass bias.

This paper describes the design optimization of a rotating rectangular channel with staggered arrays of pin-fins by Kriging metamodeling technique. Two non-dimensional variables, the ratio of the height to the diameter of the pin-fins and the ratio of the spacing between the pin-fins to the diameter of the pin-fins are chosen as the design variables. The objective function that is a linear combination of heat transfer and friction loss related terms with a weighting factor is selected for the optimization. To construct the Kriging model, objective function values at 20 training points generated by Latin hypercube sampling are evaluated by a three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) analysis method with the SST turbulence model. The Kriging model predicts the objective function value that agrees well with the value calculated by the RANS analysis at the optimum point. The objective function is reduced by 11% by the optimization of the channel.

The objective of this study was to investigate the changes in ice dendrite size during freezing process in gelatin matrix as a model food system in order to provide mathematical relation between freezing condition and ice dendrite size. Gelatin gel as a model matrix was frozen in unidirectional Neumann's type of heat transfer. The thermograms' analysis allowed to determine the freezing temperature of the sample, the position of the freezing front versus time, and thus, freezing front rate. The morphology of ice dendrites was observed by scanning electron microscopy after freeze-drying. We observed that the means size of ice dendrite increased with the distance to the cooling plate; however, it decreased with the cooling rate and the cooling temperature. In addition, the shorter durations of the freeze-drying process was shorter decreeing the decreased the freezing front rate, resulted in their resulting in a larger pore size of the ice dendrite pores for the sublimation channel of that operate as water vapor sublimation channels. From these results, we could derive a linear regression as an empirical mathematical model equation between the ice dendrite size and the inverse of freezing front rate.

The effects of $Ca^{2+}$ ion on the charge transfer(CT) interaction of $4-(C_9H_{19})C_6H_4O(CH_2CH_2O)_{40} [NP-(EO)_{40}]$ with iodine in aqueous solution were investigated by UV-visible spectrophotometer. Maximum absorption wavelengths to the CT interaction were in the vicinity of 390 nm, and by the addition of $Ca^{2+}$ ion shifted toward 370 nm. Above CMC, the intensity of the CT interaction by the addition of $Ca^{2+}$ ion were increased and then decreased. The increase in the intensity of CT band were attributed to the increase of the donor-acceptor overlap with iodine caused by the compactness of micelle in the presence of $Ca^{2+}$ ion. These phenomena suggest that the linear oxyethylene(EO) chains, relatively free to assume various configuration in aqueous solution, could form a pseudo-crown ether structures capable of forming complexes with $Ca^{2+}$ ion.

The most important job in the container terminal area is to handle the cargo effectively in the limited time. To achieve this object, many strategies have been introduced and applied to. If we consider the automated container terminal, it is necessary that the cargo handling equipments are equipped with more intelligent control systems. From the middle of the 1990's, an automated rail-mounted gantry crane(RMGC) and rubber-tired gantry crane(RTG) have been developed and widely used to handle containers in the yards. Recently, in these cranes, the many equipments like CCD cameras and sensors are mounted to cope with the automated terminal environment. In this paper, we try to support the development of more intelligent automated cranes which make the cargo handling be performed effectively in the yards. For this plant, the modelling, tracking control, anti-sway system design, skew motion suppressing and complicated motion control and suppressing problems must be considered. Especially, in this paper, the system modelling and tracking control approach are discussed. And, we design the tracking control system incorporating an observer based on the 2DOF servo system design approach to obtain the desired state informations. In the case of observer design, a weighted $H_{\infty}$ error bound approach for a state estimator is considered. Based on an algebraic Riccati equation(inequality) approach, a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a full-order estimator which satisfies the weighted $H_{\infty}$ error bound is introduced. Where, the condition for existence of the estimator is denoted by a Linear Matrix Inequality(LMI) which gives an optimized solution and observer gain. Based on this result, we apply it to the tracking control system design for the transfer crane.

The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that even very small change of the cue direction in the treatment of the early osteonecrosis could affect the outcomes of operation. For this, the changes in stress transfer within the necrotic area of the femoral head were investigated under various directions and placements of the core utilizing finite element method. The loading of 3188N, which represents after-heel-strike, was imposed in cubic cosine pattern. All nodes on the most distal surface of the model were constrained in all directions. All materials included were assumed to have linear-elastic behavior. The result says that the critical stress, which causes collapse of the femoral head, was reduced when the core was oriented toward the posterior side of the femoral head regardless of location of the necrotic area. The same result was obtained either fibular bone grafting or cementation was adopted. As a consequence, the biomechanical study suggests that the core should be directed toward the loading point where the resultant force is applied to get more desirable treatment of the osteonecrosis of the femoral head in the early stage.

A three-dimensional approximate computer-based method, YSPR (Yonsei Piled Raft), was developed for analysis of behavior of piled raft foundations. The raft was modeled as a flat shell element having 6 degrees of freedom at each node and the pile was modeled as a beam-column element. The behaviors of pile head and soil were controlled by using $6{\times}6$ stiffness matrix. To model the non-linear behavior, the soil-structure interaction between soil and pile was modeled by using nonlinear load-transfer curves (t-z, q-z and p-y curves). Comparison with previous model and FEM analysis showed that YSPR gave similar load-displacement behaviors. Comparison with field measurement also indicated that YSPR gave a reasonable result. It was concluded that YSPR could be effectively used in analysis and design of piled raft foundations.
