Current progress in the development of semiconductor technology in applications involving high electron mobility transistors (HEMT) and power devices is hindered by the lack of adequate ways todissipate heat generated during device operation. Concurrently, electronic devices that use gallium nitride (GaN) substrates do not perform well, because of the poor heat dissipation of the substrate. Suggested alternatives for overcoming these limitations include integration of high thermal conductivity material like diamond near the active device areas. This study will address a critical development in the art of GaN on diamond (GOD) structure by designing for ideal heat dissipation, in order to create apathway with the least thermal resistance and to improve the overall ease of integrating diamond heat spreaders into future electronic devices. This research has been carried out by means of heat transfer simulation, which has been successfully demonstrated by a finite-element method.

Due to the improvement of science technology, the future tank system will have the multi-function for more powerful firing. and the tank, mounted this multi-function, must be lighter to maintain the mobility. Therefore, new brecoil technology would be necessary to reduce the recoil force for lighter platform. The present study covers a FOOB(Fire-Out0-Of-Battery) system that can reduce the recoil force dramatically. The firing sequence of the FOOB system is radically different from that of a conventional system. The gun is latched in out-of-battery position prior to firing. As soon as firing is occurred, the gun is unlatched and accelerated. The forward momentum is imparted to the recoiling parts. This momentum is opposed by the ballistic force imparted by firing and the recoil force and recoil length will be reduced. In this study, the ADAMS simulation has been performed with the scale model of the FIB(Fire-In-Battery) system and the FOOB system. The ADAMS simulation results show that the FOOB system could reduce the operating time and recoil length and the recoil force.

In this paper, the electron transport characteristics in $CF_4$ has been analysed over the E/N range 1~300[Td] by a two-term approximation Boltzmann equation method and by a Monte Carlo simulation. The motion has been calculated to give swarm parameters for the electron drift velocity, longitudinal diffusion coefficient, the ratio of the diffusion coefficient to the mobility, electron ionization and attachment coefficients, effective ionization coefficient, mean energy, collision frequency and the electron energy distribution function. The electron energy distribution function has been analysed in $CF_4$ at E/N=5, 10, 100, 200 and 300[Td] for a case of the equilibrium region in the mean electron energy and respective set of electron collision cross sections. The results of Boltzmann equation and Monte Carlo simulation have been compared with experimental data by Y. Nakamura and M. Hayashi. The swarm parameter from the swarm study are expected to serve as a critical test of current theories of low energy electron scattering by atoms and molecules, in particular, as well as crucial information for quantitative simulations of weakly ionized plasmas.

Wireless Sensor Network consists of sensor nodes and sink. A sink receives and processes signals created from sensor nodes. Many studies have been performed, since sensor network allows multiple nodes to run using a limited amount of energy, Most researches have focused on using fixed sink. However, in many cases, the sink has mobility effected by man, cars, and etc. This research proposes three methods for reducing the node's energy consumption which is applied the Grid method based on mobile sink. Most routing processes handled by the mobile sink and wireless sensor area is separated and operated respectively. So, this research allows decreasing the power costs. In addition, it also proposes methods using simulation to test the quality of the performance.

As mobile IP has been suggested only to support mobility of mobile station(MS) by which it dose nothing but guarantee MS's new connection to the network, it is for nothing in Quality of Service(QoS) after handoff of MS. QoS is very important factor in mobile IP network to provide multimedia applications and real-time services in mobile environment, and it is closely related to handoff delay Therefore as a main issue in mobile IP research area, handoff delay problem is actively studied to guarantee and promote QoS. In this paper, in order to resolve such a problem, we suggest Simple Network Management Network(SNMP) information-based routing that adds keyword management method to information-based routing in active network, and then propose QoS controlled handoff by SNMP information-based routing. After setting up routing convergence time, modeling of suggested method and existing handoff method is followed in order to evaluate the simulations that are carried out with NS-2. The result of simulation show the improvement of handoff delay, and consequently it turns off the QoS has been improved considerably.

A numerical simulation of passenger evacuation in a subway station was performed by coupling the passenger flow analysis and the fire simulation. The algorithm of the passenger flow analysis was based on a DEM (Discrete Element Method) using the potential map of the direction vector for each passenger. This algorithm was improved in the present study as to use finer grid smaller than a passenger in order to resolve detailed geometry of the station and to resolve the behavior of passengers in the bottleneck at the ticket gate considering the collision of passengers to a wall or with other passengers. In the fire simulation, the CO distribution predicted by using CFD was used to take into account the effect of toxic gases on the passengers' mobility. The methodology proposed in the present study could be used in designing safer subway station in case of fire occurrence.

Metamorphic HEMTs (MHEMTs) have emerged as excellent challenges for the design and fabrication of high-speed HEMTs for millimeter-wave applications. Some of improvements result from improved mobility and larger conduction band discontinuity in the channel, leading to more efficient modulation doping, better confinement, and better device performance compared with conventional pseudomorphic HEMTs (PHEMTs). For the optimized device design and development, we have performed the calibration on the DC characteristics of our fabricated 0.1 ${\mu}m$ ${\Gamma}$-gate MHEMT device having the modulation-doped $In_{0.52}Al_{0.48}As/In_{0.53}Ga_{0.47}$As heterostructure on the GaAs wafer using the hydrodynamic transport model of a commercial 2D ISE-DESSIS device simulator. The well-calibrated device simulation shows very good agreement with the DC characteristic of the 0.1 ${\mu}m$ ${\Gamma}$-gate MHEMT device. We expect that our calibration result can help design over-100-GHz MHEMT devices for better device performance.

Nowadays unmanned ground systems are used in supporting of surveillance and explosive ordnance disposal. Also, we expect that will be used to remarkably enhance combat capability through network-based cooperative operations with other combat systems. In order to effectively develop those unmanned systems, we needs a systematic method to analyze combat effectiveness and validate required operation capabilities. In this paper, we propose a practical approach to simulate remote-operated unmanned ground systems by using OneSAF, an US-Army simulation framework. First of all, we design a simulation model of unmanned system by integrating with core components for wireless communications and remote control of mobility and fire. Next, we extend OneSAF functionality to create communication links that connects a remote controller with an unmanned vehicle and define a simulated behavior to operate unmanned vehicles via the communication links. Finally, we demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed model within OneSAF and summarize system effectiveness analysis results.

In the heterogeneous system of various wired or wireless network with IP-based backbone, the continuities of agreedon QoS for multimedia services should be guaranteed regardless of network types and terminal mobility through seamless vertical handover. This paper proposes a QoS provisioning mechanism called D-ISHO which guarantees the continuities of agreed-on QoS and seamless for multimedia services by considering both such characteristics as delay, loss rate and jitter per each service and such status as available band-width, call arrival rate and data transmission rate during the vertical handover. Simulation is done for performance analysis with the measure of handover failure rate and packet loss rate.

The present study established hull form optimization for small catamaran based on variations of knuckle lines. Four knuckle lines below the free surface were employed as design variables. Knuckle lines were independently transformed within remaining the main dimensions of the existing hull. For the hull form optimization, the SHERPA algorithm of HEEDS was utilized. Computational fluid dynamics was employed to estimate the resistance performance. The optimal hull showed the improvement of resistance performance of 9.3% than that of existing hull. The improvement of wave and pressure distributions for optimal hull was confirmed. Throughout the present study, it is expected that established optimization method can be applied for various small vessels such as fishing and leisure boats.
