The nuclear power plants in South Korea have been designed in accordance with the U.S. Regulatory Guide 1.60 (R.G 1.60) design spectrum of which the peak frequency range is 2-10 Hz. The characteristics of the earthquakes at the Korea nuclear power plant sites were observed to be closer to that of Central and Eastern United States (CEUS) than the R.G 1.60, which is a lower amplification in a low frequency range, and a higher amplification in a high frequency range. The possibility of failure for sensitive power plant components in the high frequency range has been considered and evaluated. In this study, in order to improve the reliability of nuclear plant and administrative control procedures, seismic tests of an emergency diesel generator (EDG) were conducted using a shaking table under both high and low frequency ranges. From the tests, oil/lubricant leaks from the bolt connections, the fuel filter and the fuel inlet were observed. Therefore, the check list of nuclear plant components after an earthquake should include bolt connections of EDG as well as anchor bolts.

In this study, three types of structures-stepped gabion retaining walls, vertical gabion retaining walls, and parapets-were installed on the dam floor crest to prevent the overflow of deteriorative homogeneous reservoirs. The acceleration response, displacement behavior, and pore water pressure ratio behavior were compared and evaluated using shaking-table model tests. The experimental conditions were set to 0.154 g in consideration of the domestic standard and the seismic acceleration range according to the magnitude of the earthquake, and the input waveform was applied with Pohang, Gongen, and artificial earthquake waves. The acceleration response according to the design ground acceleration increased as the height of the embankment increased, and the observed value were larger in the range of 1.1 to 2.1 times the input acceleration for all structures. The horizontal and vertical displacements exhibited maximum values on the upstream slope, and the embankment was evaluated as stable and included within the allowable range for all waveforms. The settlement ratio considering the similarity law exhibited the least change in the case of the parapet structure. The amplification ratio was 1.1 to 1.5 times in all structures, with the largest observed in the dam crest. The maximum excess pore water pressure ratio was in the range of 0.010 - 0.021, and the liquefaction evaluation standard was within 1.0, which was considered very stable.

To compensate for the motion errors in hydrostatic tables, a method to actively control the clearance of a bearing corresponding to the amount of error using actively controlled capillaries is introduced in this paper. The design method for an actively controlled capillary that considers the output rate of a piezo actuator and the amount of error that must be corrected is described. The basic characteristics of such a system were tested, such as the maximum controllable range of the error, micro-step response, and available dynamic bandwidth when the capillary was installed in a hydrostatic table. The tests demonstrated that the maximum controllable range was $2.4\;{\mu}m$, the resolution was 27 nm, and the frequency bandwidth was 5.5 Hz. Simultaneous compensation of the linear and angular motion errors using two actively controlled capillaries was also performed for a hydrostatic table driven by a ballscrew and a DC servomotor. An iterative compensation method was applied to improve the compensation characteristics. Experimental results showed that the linear and angular motion errors were improved to $0.12{\mu}m$ and 0.20 arcsec, which were about $1/15^{th}$ and $1/6^{th}$ of the initial motion errors, respectively. These results confirmed that the proposed compensation method improves the motion accuracy of hydrostatic tables very effectively.

Shaking table tests were performed to investigate dynamic behavior of a three dimensional flexible rectangular liquid storage tank. Response characteristics to the three components of translational motion and three component of rotational motion were studied. The aluminium tank was exposed to the shaking high enough to make it behave in nonlinear range. Only very limited amount of the data have been processed yet. Very interesting phenomena on the effects of non-symmetry have been observed and presented. Test results that show nonlinear behavior under the high intensity shaking are reported.

For compensating the error motion of hydrostatic tables, we have introduced a way that the clearance of table is controlled corresponding to the amount of eror with the actively controlled variable capillary, named as ACC. In previous paper, through the basic test, it was confirmed that by the use of ACC, the error motion within 2.7$\mu$ m of a hydrostatic table could be compensated with the resolution of 27nm, 1/100 contollable range, and with the frequency bandwidth of 5.5Hz, structurally. In this paper, we performed practical compensation of the linear and angular motion error of hydrostatic table using ACC. For improving the compensated motion accuracy, iterative control method is put into the control system. The experimental results show that by the simultaneous compensation of error, the linear and angular motion error are improved upto 0.25$\mu$ m and 0.4arcsec, which are about 1/10 and 1/3 of the non-compensated motion errors respectively.

Three-dimensional (3D) displays provide a significant advantage over traditional 2D displays by offering realistic images, and table-style displays in particular are ideal for generating 3D images that appear to float above a table. These systems are based on multiview displays, and are typically operated using temporal or spatial multiplexing methods to expand the viewing zone (VZ). The VZ is an expanded space that results from merging the sub-viewing zones (SVZs) from which an individual view is made. To increase the viewing angle, many SVZs are usually required. In this paper, we propose a table-ornament electronic holographic display that utilizes 3f parabolic mirrors. In holography, the VZ is not simply expanded but synthesized from SVZs to implement continuous motion parallax. Our proposed system is small enough to be applied as a table ornament, in contrast to traditional tabletop displays that are large and not easily portable. By combining multiview and holographic technologies, our system achieves continuous motion parallax. Specifically, our system projects 340 views using a time-multiplexing method over a range of 240 degrees.

Recently, the high-precision vibration attenuation technology becomes the essence fo the seccessful development of high-integrated and ultra-precision industries, and is expected to continue playing a key role in the enhancement of manufacturing technology. Vibration isolation system using an air-spring is widely employed owing to its excellent isolation characteristics in a wide frequency range. It has, however, some drawbacks such as low-stiffness and low-damping features and can be easily excited by exogenous disturbances, and then vibration of table is remained for a long time. Consequently, the need for active vibration control for an air-spring vibration isolation system becomes inevitable. Furthermore, for an air-spring isolation table to be successfully employed in a variety of manufacturing sites, it should have a guaranteed robust performance not only to exogenous disturbances but also to uncertainties due to various equipments which might be put on the table. In this study, an active vibration suppression control system using H.inf. theory is designed and experiments are performed to verify its robust performance. An air-spring vibration isolation table with voice-coil-motors as its actuators is designed and built. The table is modeled as 3 degree-of-freedom system. An active control system is designed based on $H_\infty$control theory using frequency-shaped weighting functions. Analysis on its performance and frequency responce properties are done through numerical simulations. Robust characteristics of$H_\infty$ control on disturbances and model uncertainties are experimentally verified through (i) the transient response to the impact excitation of the table, (ii) the steady-state response to the harmonic excitation, and (iii) the response to the mass change of the table itself. An LQG controller is also designed and its performance is compared with the $H_\infty$ controller.

There have been many cases when an air curtain installed in the apartment could not remove the gases well, such as carbon dioxide and particles like as smoke, oils, and vapors generated during cooking to disperse pollutants into the room. This study used a numerical analysis to show how the pollutant-removing performance of the range hood is changed when the air curtain is installed front of the kitchen table. The result of this study was that when the air amount supplied by an air curtain through the slot was about 50% of the exhaust amount, the capturing efficiency of the range hood for pollutants increased 90% more than without an air curtain. Even when the amount of supplied air was small, the capturing efficiency improved markedly with the use of an upward air curtain. In case that the air flow rate of the slot was greater than 60%, the capturing efficiency decreased.

CT 검사 시 좌,우 X축 방향의 Miscentering은 선량과 화질에 영향을 준다. CT Gantry Isocenter와 검사 목적부위의 Center가 일치되도록 Lateral Sliding Table을 이용하여 일치시켰을 때 화질은 더욱 좋아지고 피폭선량은 줄어든다. 중심 이탈에 따른 선량 비교 CTDI (mGy) 측정을 위하여 CTDI Head Phantom (Kimda, Korea)과 선량측정계(Ray Safe, Sweden)를 사용하였고, 중심 이탈에 따른 균일도의 차이를 보기 위한 노이즈의 측정은 Water Phantom (HITACHI, Japan) 을 사용하였다. 중심 이탈에 따른 선량 비교 CTDI(mGy)를 위해 선량을 측정한 결과 Isocenter 에서 X 축으로 20 mm 씩 이동하여 80 mm로 이동될때까지 지속적으로 선량이 적어졌고 정확한 선량이 입사되지 않았다. 중심 이탈에 따른 균일도의 차이를 보기 위해 SD값을 측정하였고 20 mm 씩 이동하여 80 mm로 이동될 때까지 지속적으로 노이즈가 커졌다. 콜리메이션의 범위는 중심이 탈된 범위만큼 콜리메이션 범위가 늘어났고 피폭의 범위가 커졌다. Lateral Sliding Table을 이용하면 Isocenter를 쉽게 맞출 수 있고, Isocenter에서 벗어난 위치의 심장검사, Extremity bone과 Shoulder같은 부위에서 Isocenter를 맞춰 영상의 화질을 높일 수 있고, Isocenter를 맞춰 콜리메이션을 대폭 축소하여 검사할 수 있으니 불필요한 피폭선량 감소에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

WiMedia는 다른 WPAN 기술에 비해 빠른 전송률을 제공하지만 전송 범위가 10미터로 제한되어 있어 그 이상의 거리에 존재하는 디바이스와의 통신은 불가능하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 WiMedia 네트워크에서 제한된 전송 범위를 극복하여 실시간(Real-Time) 데이터를 전송하기 위한 멀티홉 QoS 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안하였다. 제안된 라우팅 프로토콜은 Table-Driven 라우팅 알고리즘과 On-Demand 라우팅 알고리즘이 결합된 하이브리드 형 라우팅 프로토콜로 2홉 이내의 거리에 존재하는 디바이스에 대한 경로는 주기적으로 전송되는 이웃 디바이스의 정보를 수집한 후 Table-Driven 라우팅 알고리즘을 사용하여 생성하며 3홉 이상의 거리에 존재하는 디바이스에 대한 경로는 On-Demand 라우팅 알고리즘을 사용하여 생성한다. 그리고 ns-2 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안된 라우팅 프로토콜과 AODV, 그리고 DSDV간의 성능을 비교하였으며, 그 결과 처리율과 지연시간에 있어 우수한 성능을 보였다.
