  • In this paper, we have proposed a OFDM/QPSK-DMR(Orthogonal frequency Division Multiplexing/Quadrature Phase Shift Keying Modulation-Digital Microwave Radio)system using BL-PSF(Band-limited pulse shaping filter) over the Microwave channel. In the proposed DMR system, STS-1(51.84 Mbps) of SONET(Synchronous Optical NETwork) is first modulated by OFDM/QPSK symbol and used Band-limited pulse shaping filter. The advantage of the proposed DMR system is to simplify system complexity and increase IFFT/FFT block use-efficiency. The system performance of single carrier and OFDM systems is already proved that those of DMR systems have the same performance over AWGN(Additive White Gaussian Noise) channel environment. Therefore, the system is analyzed between proposed OFDM/QPSK-DMR and single carrier DMR systems and simulated by BER performance and Signature curve over Microwave channel environment. Simulation result is that the proposed system performances are approaching to the performance of single carrier DMR system as the number of Sub-carriers increasing.

  • The influence of combination of nano silica and silica fume, as partial cement replacement materials, on the properties of concrete has been studied through the measurement of compressive strength. The compressive strength of concrete in terms of mean, standard deviation and with-in-test coefficient of variation related to the variation in the nominated parameters have also been developed. The compressive strength data developed experimentally has been analyzed using normal-probability distribution and partial safety factors of composite concretes have been evaluated by using first order second moment approach with Hasofer Lind's method. The use of Nano silica and silica fume in concrete decreases the partial safety factor of concrete i.e., increase the reliability of concrete. The experimental results show that the properties of concrete having nano silica and silica fume in combination were better than that of a plain concrete. The SEM test results showing the level of Ca(OH)2 in plain concrete and consumption level Ca(OH)2 of concrete containing nano silica & silica fume have also been presented.

  • In this study, polysufone (PSf) was used as a base polymer to synthesize sulfonated polysulfone (SPSf) and aminated polysulfone (APSf) as cation and anion exchange polymers, respectively. Then the ion exchange polymers were coated onto the surface of commercial carbon electrodes. To compare the capacitive deionization (CDI) and membrane capacitive deionization (MCDI) processes, the pristine carbon electrodes and ionic polymer coated electrodes were tested under various operating conditions such as feed flow rate, adsorption time at fixed desorption time, and feed concentration, etc., in terms of effluent concentration and salt removal efficiency. The MCDI was confirmed to be superior to the CDI process. The performance of MCDI was 2-3 times higher than that of CDI. In particular, the reverse desorption potential was a lot better than zero potential. Typically, the salt removal efficiency 100% for 100 mg/L NaCl was obtained for MCDI at feed flow rate of 15 ml/min and adsorption/desorption time of 3 min/1 min and applied voltages 1.0 V for adsorption and -0.3 V for desorption process, and for 500 mg/L, the salt removal efficiency 91% was observed.

  • A novel thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) reverse osmosis (RO)/non-woven fabric (NWF) membrane was prepared by adding zinc oxide (ZnO) nanospheres ($30{\pm}10nm$) during the interfacial polymerization process of m-phenylenediamine (MPD) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) on self-made polysulfone (PSF) membrane/polyester (PET) non-woven fabric support. The improved performance of TFN RO membrane was verified in terms of water contact angle (WCA), water flux, salt rejection, antifouling properties and chlorine resistance. The results showed that the WCA value of TFN RO surface had a continuous decrease with the increasing of ZnO content in MPD aqueous solution. The water flux of composite TFN RO membranes acquired a remarkable increase with a stable high solute rejection (94.5 %) in $1g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ NaCl aqueous solution under the optimized addition amount of ZnO (1 wt%). The continuous testing of membrane separation performance after the immersion in sodium hypochlorite solution indicated that the introduction of ZnO nanospheres also dramatically enhanced the antifouling properties and the chlorine resistance of composite RO membranes.

  • 중공사 고분자 분리막을 이용한 SF6를 분리 농축을 위한 운전조건을 결정하기 위해서는, 온도와 압력이 투과특성에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 온도와 압력이 부과된 조건에서 단일기체 투과실험을 수행하여, 중공사 고분자 분리막(PSF, PC, PI)을 통한 기체($N_2$, $O_2$, $SF_6$, $CF_4$)의 투과특성을 연구하였다. 실험결과, 기체의 투과플럭스는 온도와 압력의 증가에 따라 일반적으로 증가하는 것으로 나타났으나, 분리막에 따른 투과플럭스의 차이가 관찰되었으며, 온도, 압력에 따른 투과플럭스 변화율은 기체의 특성(분자크기)에 따라 다른 것으로 나타났다. 온도 압력에 대한 투과플럭스를 3차원적으로 표현했을 때, 투과플럭스는 근사적인 평면 위에서 변화하는 것으로 관측되었다. 온도와 압력에 의한 투과플럭스 변화를 열역학적으로 분석하였으며, 투과플럭스 예측을 위한 경험적 모델로 평면특성의 1차 다항식 모델과 곡면 특성을 가진 2차 다항식 모델을 제안하였다. 그 결과 두 경험적 모델 모두 관측자료에 대한 높은 적합도를 보여 적용가능성을 확인하였다.

  • 본 연구에서는 연료전지용 전해질 복합체용 지지체 막을 저가의 우수한 기계적 열적 안정성을 가지는 Polysulfone으로 상전이 법을 이용하여 제조하였다. 제조된 막을 이용하여 농도변화와 노출시간의 변화에 따른 열 수축율, 통기도, 모폴로지, 기계적 물성 및 다공도를 측정하였다. 모폴로지를 조절하기 위해 공기 중 노출 시간과 고분자 농도가 제어되었으며, 제조된 막은 고분자 농도 변화에 관계없이 모두 스폰지 구조를 나타내었다. 고분자의 농도가 증가함에 따라 기계적 열적 안정성은 증가하였지만, 다공도는 감소하는 결과를 보였다. 실험결과 20 wt%의 PSf 고분자 용액을 사용하여 2분의 노출시간을 두고 제조된 고분자 막에서 연료전지용 복합막으로 사용되기 위한 충분한 다공도(80%)와 기계적(tensile : 1.3 MPa), 열적(MD, TD shrinkgage < 1%) 안정성을 나타내었다.

  • 본고에서, "나선형 주사 방법에 의한 고속 NMR 영상화" 방법을 제안하고 그에 따른 실험 결과를 보였다. 이것은 2차원 FID 영역을 나선형 궤적으로 스캐닝하며 데이타를 받을 수 있도록 경사 자계 파형 (gradient pulse)을 가하여 빠른 시간에 (수십 msec - 수초)내에 영상 정보를 얻어낸 후, 재구성 알고리즘을 씀으로써 영상을 얻어내는 방법이다. 이 방법의 장점은 첫째로 $T_2$ 감쇄에 의한 PSF (Point Spread Function)가 윈형 대칭으로 주어지므로 영상화 했을때 물체의 구조 식별이 기존의 EPI (Echo Planar Imaging) 방법에 비해서 선명하며, 둘째로 나선형 궤적을 구현하기 의한 경사 자계 파형에서 불연속 점을 없앰과 동시에 파형의 세기가 점차로 증가하는 형태이므로, 기존의, 파형 왜곡에 의해 영상에 미치는 영향을 최소화 할 수가 있으며, 세째로 나선형 스캔을 사이 사이에 끼워 넣는 방법을 씀으로써 해상도를 향상시킬 수가 있다.

  • Novel optical techniques are presented for three-dimensional tracking of nanoparticles; Optical Serial Sectioning Microscopy (OSSM) and Ratiometric Total Internal Reflection Fluorescent Microscopy (R-TIRFM). OSSM measures optically diffracted particle images, the so-called Point Spread Function (PSF), and dotermines the defocusing or line-of-sight location of the imaged particle measured from the focal plane. The line-of-sight Brownian motion detection using the OSSM technique is proposed in lieu of the more cumbersome two-dimensional Brownian motion tracking on the imaging plane as a potentially more effective tool to nonintrusively map the temperature fields for nanoparticle suspension fluids. On the other hand, R-TIRFM is presented to experimentally examine the classic theory on the near-wall hindered Brownian diffusive motion. An evanescent wave field from the total internal reflection of a 488-nm bandwidth of an argon-ion laser is used to provide a thin illumination field of an order of a few hundred nanometers from the wall. The experimental results show good agreement with the lateral hindrance theory, but show discrepancies from the normal hindrance theory. It is conjectured that the discrepancies can be attributed to the additional hindering effects, including electrostatic and electro-osmotic interactions between the negatively charged tracer particles and the glass surface.

  • In this work, for the first time, the quality of restoration in wide-field microscopy images after deconvolution was analyzed as a function of different Point Spread Functions using one deconvolution method, on a specimen of known size and on a biological specimen. The empirical Point Spread Function determination can significantly depend on the numerical aperture, refractive index of the embedding medium, refractive index of the immersion oil and cover slip thickness. The influence of all of these factors is shown in the same article and using the same microscope. We have found that the best deconvolution results are obtained when the empirical PSF utilized is obtained under the same conditions as the specimen. We also demonstrated that it is very important to quantitatively check the process' outcome using several quality indicators: Full-Width at Half-Maximum, Contrast-to-Noise Ratio, Signal-to-Noise Ratio and a Tenengrad-based function. We detected a significant improvement when using an indicator to measure the focus of the whole stack. Therefore, to qualitatively determinate the best deconvolved image between different conditions, one approach that we are pursuing is to use Tenengrad-based function indicators in images obtained using a wide-field microscope.

  • A lot of models have been developed for prevention of human errors. Nevertheless most of them failed to attract attention of industry which has been looking for an integrative model that can show practical countermeasures as well as causal factors of human errors. This research aimed to develop a comprehensive model that can mainly be applied to industrial fields. Therefore, in the model, it was tried to explain sequences of an operator's information process that might cause human errors on one hand, and life cycle stages of facilities involved when human errors occur on the other hand. This model was validated by using a typical accident case. With the comprehensive model presented in this research, one could follow up the sequence of human errors caused by operators, and errors made at the design stage which might cause accidents could be tracked. As a consequence, it is expected that much attention would be paid to preventing human errors in industrial fields since safety personnel can easily find out cause of human errors throughout life cycle stages of man-machine facilities if utilizing the suggested model.
