A scheme is proposed to generate triangular waveforms with alterable symmetry. The key component is a cascaded single-drive Mach-Zehnder modulator (SD-MZM) and optical polarization beam splitter-combiner architecture. In this triangular waveform generator, the bias-induced phase shift, modulation index and controllable delay difference are changeable. To generate triangular waveform signals with different symmetry indexes, different combinations of these variables are selected. Compared with the previous schemes, this generator just contains one SD-MZM and the balanced photodetector (BPD) is not needed, which means the costs and energy consumption are significantly reduced. The operation principle of this triangular waveform generator has been theoretically analyzed, and the corresponding simulation is conducted. Based on the theoretical and simulated results, some experiments are demonstrated to prove the validity of the scheme. The triangular waveform signals with a symmetry factor range of 20-80% are generated. Both experiment and theory prove the feasibility of this method.

본 논문에서는 맥락 정보와 물리적 속성 부여가 가능한 모바일 증강 현실 콘텐츠 조작 방법을 제안한다. 유비쿼터스 컴퓨팅 개념의 확산과 더불어 센서와 모바일 장치의 급속한 발전은 고성능 PC에서만 가능했던 증강 현실 시스템들이 모바일 장치에서도 동작 가능하게 되었다. 또한, 최근에는 다양한 센서 정보를 활용하여 보다 현실 공간이나 사용자의 정보를 증강 현실 콘텐츠에 반영하는 증강 현실 시스템들이 소개되고 있다. 특히, 일반 사용자들이 모바일 장치를 이용하여 보다 사실적인 증강 현실 콘텐츠를 손쉽게 저작하기 위해서는 모바일 장치의 제한적인 사용자 인터페이스를 극대화하고, 센서 정보를 이용하여 사용자와 환경의 맥락 정보를 활용할 수 있는 방법이 요구된다. 따라서 제안된 방법은 모바일 증강 현실 저작 시스템에 있어서 콘텐츠 조작에 필요한 시각적 큐(cue)를 제공하여 사용자가 모바일 장치의 터치 스크린을 통해서 증강된 콘텐츠를 자유롭게 조작할 수 있도록 한다. 뿐만 아니라, 센서정보를 콘텐츠의 속성에 부여할 수 있도록 하여 사용자가 직접 센서 조작을 통해서 증강된 콘텐츠를 직접 조작하거나 환경 정보가 증강된 콘텐츠에 반영될 수 있도록 한다. 그리고 증강된 콘텐츠들 간의 사실적인 충돌을 위해서, 물리 속성 부여가 가능한 물리 콘텐츠 로더(physics contents loader)를 구현하고, 증강 현실 공간과 물리 공간 간의 좌표 일치를 통해서 증강된 콘테츠들 간의 물리 충돌이 가능하도록 한다. 제안된 방법의 유용함을 검증하기위해서 모바일 장치와 센서를 이용한 모바일 증강 현실 저작 시스템을 구현하였다. 따라서 제안된 방법은 향후 모바일 증강 현실 저작 시스템에 요구되는 맥락 정보와 물리 속성 부여가 가능한 콘텐츠 조작 방법으로 기대된다.

A new task of using the Jacobian-Free-Newton-Krylov (JFNK) method for the PWR core transient simulations involving neutronics, thermal hydraulics and mechanics is conducted. For the transient scenario of PWR, normally the Picard iteration of the coupled coarse-mesh nodal equations and parallel channel TH equations is performed to get the transient solution. In order to solve the coupled equations faster and more stable, the Newton Krylov (NK) method based on the explicit matrix was studied. However, the NK method is hard to be extended to the cases with more physics phenomenon coupled, thus the JFNK based iteration scheme is developed for the nodal method and parallel-channel TH method. The local gap conductance is sensitive to the gap width and will influence the temperature distribution in the fuel rod significantly. To further consider the local gap conductance during the transient scenario, a 1D mechanics model is coupled into the JFNK scheme to account for the fuel thermal expansion effect. To improve the efficiency, the physics-based precondition and scaling technique are developed for the JFNK iteration. Numerical tests show good convergence behavior of the iterations and demonstrate the influence of the fuel thermal expansion effect during the rod ejection problems.

The magnetostatic interaction between the two magnetic nanowires was studied by using the longitudinal magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE). For this purpose two magnetic nanowires having different widths (400 nm, 800 nm) were fabricated on an Si substrate with electron beam lithography and the lift-off method. Magnetic hysteresis loops measured by MOKE showed double switching behavior, corresponding to the separated switching fields of each wire. The switching field of the narrow wire was greatly affected by the separation between the two wires. Based on how the switching field changes with decreasing separation, it is concluded that the magnetostatic field of the 800-nm wire strongly affects the switching of the 400-nm wire when the separation is less than $0.5{\mu}m$.

Handling constantly evolving configurations of aircraft can be inefficient and frustrating to design engineers, especially true in the early design phase when many design parameters are changeable throughout trade-off studies. In this paper, a physics-based design framework using parametric modeling is introduced, which is designated as DIAMOND/AIRCRAFT and developed for structural design of transport aircraft in the conceptual and preliminary design phase. DIAMOND/AIRCRAFT can relieve the burden of labor-intensive and time-consuming configuration changes with powerful parametric modeling techniques that can manipulate ever-changing geometric parameters for external layout of design alternatives. Furthermore, the design framework is capable of generating FE model in an automated fashion based on the internal structural layout, basically a set of design parameters describing the structural members in terms of their physical properties such as location, spacing and quantities. The design framework performs structural sizing using the FE model including both primary and secondary structural levels. This physics-based approach improves the accuracy of weight estimation significantly as compared with empirical methods. In this study, combining a physics-based model with parameter modeling techniques delivers a high-fidelity design framework, remarkably expediting otherwise slow and tedious design process of the early design phase.

In this paper, a new iterative algorithm for reconstructing block sparse signals, called block backtracking-based adaptive orthogonal matching pursuit (BBAOMP) method, is proposed. Compared with existing methods, the BBAOMP method can bring some flexibility between computational complexity and reconstruction property by using the backtracking step. Another outstanding advantage of BBAOMP algorithm is that it can be done without another information of signal sparsity. Several experiments illustrate that the BBAOMP algorithm occupies certain superiority in terms of probability of exact reconstruction and running time.

Modern methods in determining the value of the Hubble constant are divided into two main ways: the classical distance ladder method and the inverse distance ladder method. The classical distance ladder method is based on Cepheid calibrated Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia), which are known as powerful distance indicator. The inverse distance ladder method uses cosmic microwave background radiation, which emitted from the high-z universe, and the cosmological model. Recent estimations of the Hubble constant based on these two methods show a $2{\sim}3{\sigma}$ difference, which called the "Hubble tension". It is currently an issue in the modern cosmology. We have been working on the luminosity calibration of SNe Ia based on the Tip of the Red Giant Branch (TRGB), which is a precise population I distance indicator. We present the TRGB distance estimates of 5 SNe Ia host galaxies with the archival Hubble Space Telescope image data. We derive the mean absolute maximum magnitude of 5 SNe Ia and the value of the Hubble constant. Cosmological implications of our estimate will be discussed.

The calibration methods of neutron-measuring devices such as the neutron survey meter have advantages and disadvantages. To compare the calibration factors obtained by the shadow cone method and semi-empirical method, 10 neutron survey meters of five different types were used in this study. This experiment was performed at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI; Daejeon, South Korea), and the calibration neutron fields were constructed using a $^{252}Californium$ ($^{252}Cf$) neutron source, which was positioned in the center of the neutron irradiation room. The neutron spectra of the calibration neutron fields were measured by a europium-activated lithium iodide scintillator in combination with KAERI's Bonner sphere system. When the shadow cone method was used, 10 single moderator-based survey meters exhibited a smaller calibration factor by as much as 3.1-9.3% than that of the semi-empirical method. This finding indicates that neutron survey meters underestimated the scattered neutrons and attenuated neutrons (i.e., the total scatter corrections). This underestimation of the calibration factor was attributed to the fact that single moderator-based survey meters have an under-ambient dose equivalent response in the thermal or thermal-dominant neutron field. As a result, when the shadow cone method is used for a single moderator-based survey meter, an additional correction and the International Organization for Standardization standard 8529-2 for room-scattered neutrons should be considered.
