투과형 펄스와전류(Pulsed Eddy Current; PEC) 탐상을 대상으로 수치해석 방법을 사용하여 펄스와전류 탐상신호를 예측하고, 펄스의 폭이 신호에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 그 결과 전도도나 두께가 증가하면 PEC 신호의 최대값이 작아지며 최대값 발생시간이 지연됨을 관찰할 수 있었고, 전도도나 두께를 측정할 때 펄스의 폭이 좁으면 신호의 최대치를 사용하는 것이 유리하고, 펄스의 폭이 넓으면 최대치가 나타나는 시간을 사용하는 것이 판별에 유리하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, lift-off가 커질수록 PEC 신호의 최대값은 작아지지만, 두 코일 사이의 간격만 일정하면 피검사체가 어디에 위치해도 신호는 거의 동일하며, 같은 두께에서 서로 다른 lift-off 변화는 PEC 신호를 한 점에서 만나게 하는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, authors propose a novel step-up AC-DC converter operated with power factor correction (PFC) and with high efficiency. The proposed converter behaves with discontinuous current control (DCC) of input current. The input current waveform in the proposed converter is got to be a discontinuous sinusoid form in proportion to magnitude of at input voltage under the constant duty cycle switching. Therefore, the input power factor is nearly unity and the control method is simple. In the general DCC converters, the switching devices are turned-on with the zero current switching (ZCS). But turn-off of the switching devices is done at the maximum current. To achieve a soft switching at turn-off, the proposed converter uses a new partial resonant circuit, which results in the very low switching loss and the high efficiency of converter.

Low power superconducting persistent current switch(PCS) for the superconducting magnet systems in the persistent mode was developed and its experimental results were analyzed when the system was charged or discharged. The multifilament NbTi wire with Cu matrix was used for the PCS. The constructed NbTi superconducting switch with superconducting magnet system operated successfully. It also operated on-off switching action with good stabilization. The maximum operating current in persistent mode was 60A (at 1T). In persistent current mode, the decay of the persistent current at 60A was observed. Its decay was 3.55% in 60 min. It is possible to make the persistent current switch with the better decaying of persistent current if some problems for joint resistance are solved.

In this paper, we researched the searching and tracking locations of a home resident using ON/OFF switches and sensors and designed a remote monitoring system. As an implementation environment, this system is developed on the base of the distributed object group framework we have developed from previous works. In order to trace the moving locations of a home resident, we firstly showed a home structure which attaches ON/OFF switches and sensors to home appliances and indoor facilities being fixed in home. Whenever a home resident opens/closes these objects, the signals operated from ON/OFF switches and sensors are sent to a home server system. In this time, the real locations of ON/OFF switches and sensors that the signals are being occurred must be the current location that he/she stays. A home server system provides the functionalities that map the real location of a resident in home to virtual location designed on remote desk-tops or terminals like PDAs, and that construct a healthcare database consisted of moving patterns, moving ranges, momentum for analyzing the given searching locations and times Finally, this system provides these information for remotely monitoring services.

This paper uses a data mining approach to develop bankruptcy prediction models suitable for traditional (off-line) companies and electronic (on-line) companies. It observes the differences in the composition prediction models between these two types of companies and provides interpretation of bankruptcy classifications. The bankruptcy prediction models revealed the major variables in predicting bankruptcy to be 'cash flow to total assets' and 'gross value-added to net sales' for traditional off-line companies while 'cash flow to liabilities','gross value-added to net sales', and 'current ratio' for electronic companies. The accuracy rates of final prediction models for traditional off-line and electronic companies were found to be $84.7\%\;and\;82.4\%$, respectively. When the model for traditional off-line companies was applied for electronic companies, prediction accuracy dropped significantly in the case of bankruptcy classification (from $70.4\%\;to\;45.2\%$) at the level of a blind guess ($41.30\%$). Therefore, the need for different models for traditional off-line and electronic companies is justified.

The control of the SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor) is usually based on the non-linear inductance profiles with positions. So determination of optimal switching angle is very different. we present self-tuning control of SRM for maximum torque and efficiency with phase current and shaft position sensor During the sample time, micro-controller checks the number of pre-checked pulse. After micro-controller calculates between two data, it move forward or backward turn-off angle. When the turn-off angle is fixed optimal turn-off angle, turn-on angle moves forward or backward by a step using self-tuning control method. And then, optimal turn-off angle is searched once again. As such a repeating process, turn-on/off angle is moves automatically to obtain the maximum torque and efficiency. The experimental results are presented to validate the self-tuning algorithm.

The most widely used method to form an electrode in industrial solar cells are screen printing. Screen printing is characterized by a relatively simple and well-known production sequence with high throughput rates. However the method is difficult to implement a fine line width of high-efficiency solar cells can not be made. The open circuit voltage(Voc) and the short circuit current density(Jsc) and fill factor(FF) need to be further improved to increase the efficiency of silicon solar cells. In this study, gravure offset printing method using the multicrystalline-silicon solar cells were fabricated. Gravure off-set printing method which can print the fine line width of finger electrode can have the ability reduce the shaded area and increase the Jsc. Moreover it can make a high aspect ratio thereby series resistance is reduced and FF is increased. Approximately $50{\mu}m$ line width with $35{\mu}m$ height was achieved. The efficiency of gravure off set was 0.7% higher compare to that of scree printing method.

The precise quantity of materials is not yet taken off by the CAD system although it has Influenced in design productivity and automatic estimate. And various estimate systems developed so far deal with the quantity take-off of building members separately, which caused to over-estimate the part of each member. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to develop algorithms of more precise estimate than that of current estimate by solving boundary conditions of the connection parts of building members, such as column, girder, beam, wall and slab. The algorithms are proposed to take off the quantity of concrete and form work and they will be used for the estimate of building structure more precisely and automatically than ever.

The capital structure is one of the hot financial topics among researchers and scholars. Its importance comes from the fact that capital structure is closely related to companies' ability to meet different stakeholders' needs. A suitable capital structure will boost the business and create a competitive advantage in the context of fierce competition. Many companies choose an optimal debt level based on the trade-off between interest and debt costs. This study aimed to test the existence of trade-off theory in capital structure, the case of Vietnam's real estate companies, which are growing very fast recently. Instead of considering constant optimal leverage to test the trade-off model, we take advantage of the dynamic capital structure determined by growth opportunities, profitability, tax incentives, tangibility, liquidity, and firm size. The dynamic panel data regression was estimated by the system Generalized Method of Moment (Sys-GMM). The empirical evidence showed that real estate companies listed in the Vietnamese stock market might change their leverage toward a target capital structure determined by influential factors in a long-term perspective. In particular, the debt-to-asset ratio will change by approximately 14 percent, positively, in response to the difference between the current debt-to-asset ratio and the dynamic target debt-to-asset ratio.

An off-axis zone plate is able to focus on a single order while neglecting the zeroth order in a visible imaging system. This allows one to enhance the contrast quality in diffractive images, which is the major advantage of this type of zone plate. However, most previous reflection zone plates are used in focusing X-rays with a small grazing incident angle and are intricately designed with the use of a local grating period. In this study, we suggest the design of an off-axis elliptical zone plate (EZP) that is used to focus a monochromatic light beam with separation between the first and unfocused orders under a large grazing incident angle of 45°. An assumption using the total grating period, which depends on the average and constant grating period, is proposed to calculate the desired distance between the first and zeroth order and to simplify the construction of a novel model off-center EZP. Four diffractive optical elements (DOEs) with different parameters were subsequently fabricated by direct laser lithography and then verified using a performance evaluation system to compare the results from the assumption with the experimental results.
