Gas atomization mechanical alloying and hot pressing have successfully made high temperature Al-9.45Fe-4.45Cr alloy. The microstructure and mechanical properties of this alloy has been studied by using optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer and compressive tester. It contains high concentration of transition elements of Fe and Cr, which form thermally stable dispersoids in the aluminum matrix. Proper oxidation of powders during ball milling strengthens the bulk extrudates by providing the obstacle particles. The oxide particles are very chemically and thermally stable and prevent the coarsening of the intermediate compounds.

Residual stress is a dominant obstacle to efficient production and safe usage of device by deteriorating the mechanical strength and failure properties. Therefore, we proposed a new thin film stress-analyzing technique using a nanoindentation method. For this aim, the shape change in the indentation load-depth curve during the stress-relief in film was theoretically modeled. The change in indentation depth by load-controlled stress relaxation process was related to the increase or decrease in the applied load using the elastic flat punch theory. Finally, the residual stress in thin film was calculated from the changed applied load based on the equivalent stress interaction model. The evaluated stresses for diamond-like carbon films from this nanoindentation analysis were consistent with the results from the conventional curvature method.

This paper deals with the trajectory planning of multi agent robots using complex potential theory for robot soccer. The complex potential theory is introduced, then the circle theorem is used to avoid obstacles, and the vortex pair is used to make precise kicking direction of robot. Various situations of robot soccer are simulated and the effect of vortex strength and the speed of robots are discussed and the better way to avoid obstacles and to kick the precise direction is found. The feasibilities of complex potential theory to apply for the multi agent robots are successful.

The microstructure of the inconel 690 alloy was varied by the solution treatment and the thermal treatment. The specimens having different microstructures were examined in order to understand the strengthening mechanism of the inconel 690. The level of supersaturation of carbon in the solid solution was increased by applying a longer solution treatment at 115$0^{\circ}C$. As increased carbon content in the solid solution, more carbides precipitated during the thermal treatment at $700^{\circ}C$. Since the carbides played a role of obstacle on the movement of dislocations, a higher tensile strength was obtained in the sample having a large number of carbider. The accumulation of dislocations at the grain boundary carbides caused the development of intergranular fracture which led to a lower elongation.

There has been a considerable interest to develop the silicide alloys as high temperature structural materials because of their excellent high temperature stability and strength, however, their lack of room temperature ductility and toughness was a main obstacle for the application. In order to improve ductility while maintaining good high temperature properties, possible refractory metal-silicide eutectic alloys composed of fine two phases were prepared by VAR(Vacuum Arc Remelting). Three silicide alloys, $Nb-Nb_3Si$, $Ti-Ti_5Si_3$, $V-V_3Si$, were selected as prospecting silicide eutectics and those high temperature characteristics were evaluated by high temperature compression test.

Recently, the ultra light metal structure with periodic and three dimensional truss elements takes attention because of its multi-functionality and substantial heat resistance. However, the complicated fabrication process leading to high cost has been a major obstacle to wide applications. In this paper, a new idea to construct an ultra light structure with periodic, three dimensional truss using metal wires is presented. To prove the practical validity, a Kagome-like structure was fabricated from stamped wires and punched face sheets. It was assembled by soldering. Through three-point bending and compression tests, the strength was evaluated and compared with the theory.

Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) is an extension paradigm of moving vehicles to communicate with wireless transmission devices within a certain geographical limit without any fixed infrastructure. The vehicles have most important participation in this model is usually positioned quite dimly within the certain radio range. Fuzzy based multi-hop broadcast protocol is better than conventional message dissemination techniques in high-mobility VANETs, is proposed in this research work. Generally, in a transmission range the existing number of nodes is obstacle for rebroadcasting that can be improved by reducing number of intermediate forwarding points. The proposed protocol stresses on transmission of emergency message projection by utilization subset of surrounding nodes with consideration of three metrics: inter-vehicle distance, node density and signal strength. The proposed protocol is fuzzy MHB. The method assessment is accomplished in OMNeT++, SUMO and MATLAB environment to prove the efficiency of it.

본 논문에서는 저전력 433MHz 주파수 RF 신호가 여러 종류의 벽을 투과할 시 신호에 일어나는 감쇠를 비교한다. 국내에서 기존의 와이파이, 블루투스 같은 고주파수 대역의 RF 신호에 관한 연구 및 실험은 많이 행해지었지만, 한국의 전파 관리법에 의해 성능이 제한된 비면허 주파수인 433MHz 대역의 RF 신호에 관한 연구는 매우 적게 이루어져 있다. 이러한 저주파수 대역 신호의 가장 큰 장점은 장거리 통신에 능하고 벽 투과특성이 뛰어나다는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 실험을 통해 433MHz 대역 RF 신호가 여러 종류의 장애물을 통과 시 신호 세기가 어떻게 변하는지 각각 비교하고 이를 통해 비가시 영역에서 저전력 주파수 통신의 사용 가능성을 확인한다.

In cognitive radio networks, acquirement of position information of primary user is very important to secondary network since localization information of primary users can be utilized for improving the spectrum efficiency of secondary network and for avoiding harmful interference to primary users by using proper power control. Among various location methods, Received Signal Strength (RSS)-based localization has been widely used for distance measurements in the location detection process despite its inherent inaccuracy because it can be easily implemented without any additional hardware cost. In the RSS-based localization, the distance is measured by the received signal strength, and distance error can be caused by many factors such as fading, shadowing and obstacle between two nodes. In the paper, therefore we propose a localization scheme based on estimation of path-loss exponent to localize the location of primary users more accurately. Through simulations, it is shown that the proposed scheme can provide less localization error and interference rate to primary users than other schemes.

Lightweight geopolymers were fabricated by using fused slag from integrated gasification combined cycle as a law material and Si sludge from silicon wafer process as a bloating material for the purpose of replacing autoclaved lightweight concrete (ALC). Density and compressive strength of geopolymers were measured and compared with the properties of ALC according to the variation of mol concentration of alkaline activator, W/S ratio, addition of fibers, and addition of polystyrene and the possibility of replacing ALC panel was estimated through the comparisons. Although the geopolymer satisfying the standard of ALC panel was not made by controlling mol concentration and W/S ratio, addition of inserts such as fibers and polystyrene insert was tried to overcome the obstacle of enhancing properties. Geopolymers cannot satisfying the standard of ALC panel by adding carbon or glass fibers; however, adding fibers can be suggested as one of the methods enhancing compressive strength because the compressive strength of the specimen containing 0.3 wt.% glass fibers was increased by 3 times. The maximum addition of polystyrene insert was turned out to be 50 vol.% and the properties of geopolymers varied by the method of insertion. When using single polystyrene insert, compressive strength was 17.8 MPa and density was 0.996 g/㎤ which were similar values to the standard of ALC panel. If the difficulties of reproductivity of production and insertion method of inserts were overcome through the future research, the geopolymers containing polystyrene inserts could possibly replace ALC panel.
