The key issues in high power, high energy applications such as electromagnetic launchers include safety, reliability, flexibility, efficiency, compactness, and cost. To explore some of the issues, a control scheme for a large current wave-forming was designed, built and experimentally verified using a 2.4MJ pulse power system (PPS). The PPS was made up of eight capacitors bank unit, each containing six capacitors connected in parallel. Therefore there were 48 capacitors in total, with ratings of 22kV and 50kJ each. Each unit is charged through a charging switch that is operated by air pressure. For discharging each unit has a triggered vacuum switch (TVS) with ratings of 200kA and 250kV. Hence, flexibility of a large current wave-forming can be obtained by controlling the charging voltage and the discharging times. The whole control system includes a personal computer(PC), RS232 and RS485 pseudo converter, electric/optical signal converters and eight 80C196KC micro-controller based capacitor-bank module(CBM) controllers. Hence, the PC based controller can set the capacitor charging voltages and the TVS trigger timings of each CBM controller for the current wave-forming. It also monitors and records the system status data. We illustrated that our control scheme was able to generate the large current pulse flexibly and safely by experiments. The our control scheme minimize the use of optical cables without reducing EMI noise immunity and reliability, this is resulting in cost reduction. Also, the reliability was increased by isolating ground doubly, it reduced drastically the interference of the large voltage pulse induced by the large current pulse. This paper contains the complete control scheme and details of each subsystem unit.

Purpose: Alterations in the structure and function of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are important in cardiovascular disease and maintaining chronic hypertension. Chronic hypertension is associated with changes in vascular smooth muscle tone. The spontaneous or myogenic tone of a blood vessel reflects the ability to adapt smooth muscle tone to changes in transmural pressure. However, the intracellular signaling mechanisms involved in myogenic tone are not fully understood. Methods: Here, we investigated the relationship between mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) in isometric contraction and enzymatic activity using muscle strips from rats made hypertensive with aldosterone-analogue deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) salts. Results: Changes in myogenic tone and intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentration ($[Ca^{2+}]_i$) were different after physiological salt solution (PSS) in normotensive and hypertensive rats. The myogenic tone and quiescent phosphorylation induced by the PSS treatment were inhibited by 10 ${\mu}$M PD098059, an extracellular-regulated protein kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) inhibitor, and 10 ${\mu}$M wortmannin, an inhibitor of PI3K, in hypertensive rats. Conclusion: The development of DOCA-induced hypertension is associated with altered isometric contractions and $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ via changes in activation of ERK1/2 and PI3K after DOCA-salt treatment. Therefore, ERK1/2 and PI3K activity affect hypertension and may be suitable targets for physical therapy in cardiovascular disease.

승강로 가압방식은 미국에서 1972년에 시작된 방식으로 화재 시 피난 계단을 이용하기 곤란한 노약자등 피난 약자가 승강기를 이용하여 피난할 수 있도록 개발한 방식이며 수직덕트를 사용하지 않음으로서 공간 절약적인 측면에서 이점이 있다. 본 연구는 기존 국내 특허에 근거한 승강로 가압방식의 문제점을 도출하고 이에 대한 개선사항을 제안하였다. 풍량 계산 방법은 수직모델링을 제안하였다. 엘리베이터 출입문의 누설틈새는 실험데이터나 실측데이터를 통하여 재검토가 필요하다. 피난층을 구획하고 엘리베이터 기계실의 개구부를 화재신호에 자동폐쇄하고 릴리프 댐퍼를 설치하여 성능을 개선하였다. 개선된 방식은 자동차압댐퍼가 차압유지보다는 방연풍속을 공급하는 기능을 수행한다. 연구 결과의 신뢰성을 높이기 위해 Contam을 이용하여 검증하는 절차를 수행하였다.

Structural health monitoring (SHM) of civil infrastructure using fiber Bragg grating sensor networks (FBGSNs) has received significant public attention in recent years. However, there is currently little research on the health-monitoring technology of high-piled wharfs in coastal ports using the fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensor technique. The benefits of FBG sensors are their small size, light weight, lack of conductivity, resistance corrosion, multiplexing ability and immunity to electromagnetic interference. Based on the properties of high-piled wharfs in coastal ports and servicing seawater environment and the benefits of FBG sensors, the SHM system for a high-piled wharf in the Tianjin Port of China is devised and deployed partly using the FBG sensor technique. In addition, the health-monitoring parameters are proposed. The system can monitor the structural mechanical properties and durability, which provides a state-of-the-art mean to monitor the health conditions of the wharf and display the monitored data with the BIM technique. In total, 289 FBG stain sensors, 87 FBG temperature sensors, 20 FBG obliquity sensors, 16 FBG pressure sensors, 8 FBG acceleration sensors and 4 anode ladders are installed in the components of the back platform and front platform. After the installation of some components in the wharf construction site, the good signal that each sensor measures demonstrates the suitability of the sensor setup methods, and it is proper for the full-scale, continuous, autonomous SHM deployment for the high-piled wharf in the costal port. The South 27# Wharf SHM system constitutes the largest deployment of FBG sensors for wharf structures in costal ports to date. This deployment demonstrates the strong potential of FBGSNs to monitor the health of large-scale coastal wharf structures. This study can provide a reference to the long-term health-monitoring system deployment for high-piled wharf structures in coastal ports.

본 논문에서는 음향벡터 선배열 센서 기반에서의 광대역 적응빔형성기법을 다룬다. 적응 빔형성을 위하여 안정적인 공분산행렬추정은 매우 중요한 문제이다. 기존의 코히어런트 신호부공간기반의 적응 빔형성기법은 초점조정행렬(focusing matrix) 추정으로 인해 방위각 추정에 오차가 발생하며 또한 공분산행렬 추정을 위하여 많은 데이터 단편을 필요로 한다. 방위각 추정오차 및 공분산 행렬 추정시 필요한 데이터 단편의 수 문제를 완화하기 위하여 음압센서 선배열에 적용된 조향공분산 행렬 기법을 음향벡터 선배열 센서에 확장하여 적용한다. 그리고 부배열 기법을 통하여 공분산행렬의 차원을 줄임으로써 적은 수의 데이터 단편으로 안정적인 공분산행렬 추정이 가능하고 방위각 추정성능을 향상시킨다. 모의 실험을 통하여 기존의 코히어런트 신호 부공간 전처리 기반 광대역 빔형성기법과 제안한 기법의 방위각 추정 성능을 분석한다.

An infrared (IR) bolometer measures the change of resistance by absorbing incident IR radiation and generates a signal as a function of the radiation intensity. Since a bolometer requires temperature stabilization and light filtering except for the infrared rays, it is essential for the device to be packaged meeting conditions that above mentioned. Minimization of heat loss is needed in order to stabilize temperature of bolometer. Heat loss by conduction or convection requires a medium, so the heat loss will be minimized if the medium is a vacuum. Therefore, vacuum packaging for bolometer is necessary. Another important element in bolometer packaging is germanium (Ge) window, which transmits IR radiation to heat the bolometer. To ensure a complete transmittance of IR light, anti-reflection (AR) coatings are deposited on both sides of the window. Although the transmittance of Ge window is high for IR rays, it is difficult to use frequently in low-price IR bolometer because of its high price. In this paper, we fabricated IR window by utilizing silicon (Si) substrate instead of Ge in order to reduce the cost of bolometer packaging. To enhance the IR transmittance through Si substrate, it is textured using Reactive Ion Etching (RIE). The texturing process of Si substrate is performed along with the change of experimental conditions such as gas ratio, pressure, etching time and RF power.

We investigate a surface-micromachined polysilicon microgyroscope, whose resonant frequencies are electrostatically-tunable after fabrication. The microgyroscope with two oscillation nudes has been designed so that the resonant frequency in the sensing mode is higher than that in the actuating mode. The microgyroscope has been fabricated by a 4-mask surface-micrormachining process, including the deep RIE of a $6{\mu}m$-thick LPCVD polycrystalline silicon layer. The resonant frequency in the sensing mode has been lowered to that in actuating mode through the adjustment of an inter-plate bias voltage; thereby achieving a frequency matching at 5.8kHz under the bias voltage of 2V in a reduced pressure of 0.1torr. For an input angular rate of $50^{\circ}/sec$, an output signal of 20mV has been measured from the tuned microgyroscope under an AC drive voltage of 2V with a DC bias voltage of 3V.

수중에서 UUV(Unmanned Underwater Vehicle)에 장착되는 수중 음향 센서 배열은 UUV의 측면이나 전면에 부착하여 외부 신호를 탐지하게 된다. 이러한 센서 배열은 UUV의 특성상 곡면배열(Conformal array) 형태이며 유체 유기 소음의 영향을 받는다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 탄성층에 삽입된 하이드로폰이 외부 유입 소음의 영향을 받는 정도를 해석하였다. 유입 소음은 난류 경계층에서 발생하는 Corcos 모델을 이용하였고 주파수 밀도 함수를 이용하여 수치해석 하였다. x-방향의 파수인 kx에 다른 전달함수의 특성은 탄성층의 두께가 커질수록 전달함수의 적분값은 적어지므로 소음의 영향은 줄어드는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 탄성층 및 고정판의 탄성계수, 밀도 등의 변화가 전달함수 값의 변화를 일으키는지를 조사하였다. 향후 이러한 연구는 UUV에 장착되는 곡면 배열 센서의 설계에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
