We studied how the passive intermodulation (PIM) power arising in air cavity filters could be calculated and how the design of the filter could be optimized in order to reduce the amplitude of the PIM signal. To do this, using simulated results, we optimized the various parameters of a filter. PIM in an air cavity filter depends on the power dissipated in its cavities. A reduction of this power loss therefore decreases the PIM power in the air cavity filter. Our experimental results confirm that it is possible to design and produce air cavity filters that generate low PIM signals.

The denoising mapping with the closest-neighbor clustering (CNC) method in denoise-and-forward two-way relay channels is studied. Specifically, the symmetry of the constellations in source terminals A and B is utilized to reduce the complexity of the CNC method. The specific case considered first to illustrate how the constellation symmetry works in the CNC method is the quadrature phase-shift keying constellation in A and B and the single-antenna deployment in all terminals. This case study shows that an enormous complexity reduction can be achieved. Next, the result is extended to multiple-antenna scenarios and square quadrature amplitude modulations.

Some open jet wind tunnels have been operating under limitations due to large pressure fluctuations at some wind tunnel speeds. The Hyundai Aero-acoustic full scale Wind Tunnel (HAWT), which was completed in 1999, shows that most of the specifications were fulfilled but wind tunnel pulsations at some wind speeds were observed. Hyundai Motor Company started the wind tunnel modification in order to solve this problem in 2001. After the modification work the amplitude of pressure fluctuation was reduced and below required level over full wind speed range. Aero-acoustic performance, e.g. background noise, as well as aerodynamic performance were improved after this work.

HPA(High Power Amplifier)는 무선통신 시스템에서 필수적으로 요구되는 요소 중의 하나다. 그러나 전력 증폭기는 비선형 특성을 가지고 있으며 신호의 비선형 왜곡을 유발 시키고 인접채널 간섭을 심화시켜 시스템의 효율을 떨어뜨린다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 많은 선형화 기법들이 제시되어왔다. 다항식 사전왜곡 기법은 증폭기로 입력되는 신호가 미리 증폭기의 역 특성을 갖도록 하는 기법으로 다항식을 통하여 증폭기를 모델링하기 때문에 수렴 속도가 빠르고 다른 기법들에 비해 좋은 성능을 보인다. 하지만 다항식으로 역 비선형 특성을 구할 경우, 증폭기의 포화영역에서 역 비선형 특성이 거의 무한대가 되어야 하기 때문에 선형화기의 성능이 크게 떨어진다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 PAPR(Peak-to-Average Power Ratio) 기법을 적용하여 다항식 사전왜곡 기법의 성능을 향상 시켰다.

In this paper the tuned mass-damper-inerter (TMDI) is considered for passive vibration control and energy harvesting in harmonically excited structures. The TMDI couples the classical tuned mass-damper (TMD) with a grounded inerter: a two-terminal linear device resisting the relative acceleration of its terminals by a constant of proportionality termed inertance. In this manner, the TMD is endowed with additional inertia, beyond the one offered by the attached mass, without any substantial increase to the overall weight. Closed-form analytical expressions for optimal TMDI parameters, stiffness and damping, given attached mass and inertance are derived by application of Den Hartog's tuning approach to suppress the response amplitude of force and base-acceleration excited single-degree-of-freedom structures. It is analytically shown that the TMDI is more effective from a same mass/weight TMD to suppress vibrations close to the natural frequency of the uncontrolled structure, while it is more robust to detuning effects. Moreover, it is shown that the mass amplification effect of the inerter achieves significant weight reduction for a target/predefined level of vibration suppression in a performance-based oriented design approach compared to the classical TMD. Lastly, the potential of using the TMDI for energy harvesting is explored by substituting the dissipative damper with an electromagnetic motor and assuming that the inertance can vary through the use of a flywheel-based inerter device. It is analytically shown that by reducing the inertance, treated as a mass/inertia-related design parameter not considered in conventional TMD-based energy harvesters, the available power for electric generation increases for fixed attached mass/weight, electromechanical damping, and stiffness properties.

The reciprocating type hydrogen compressor is occurred by the pulsation from the mechanism and this pulsation is make much noise and vibration. Therefor snubber is installed for pulsation decreasing. The five type snubber models were designed for increasing pulsation amplitude reduction and decreasing pressure loss in snubber considering output pipe location as design value. And the pressure flued analysis is carried by CFD. In this paper, each type snubber according CFD result are analyzed by the MSC/NASTRAN to identify the vibration characteristic of each type. The vibration results are compared with CFD results.

본 연구에서는 능동적인 블레이드 제어기법인 고조파제어(Higher Harmonic Control, HHC) 기법을 적용하여 로터의 허브 진동하중을 억제하기 위한 최적 제어입력을 탐색하였다. 통합 공탄성 해석 프로그램인 CAMRAD II를 이용하여 HART II 로터를 모델링하고 다양한 HHC 입력 조건에 대하여 파라미터 연구를 수행하여 최대의 진동하중을 감소시키기 위한 제어입력을 찾고, HART II 시험에서 정한 최소 진동 조건에서의 허브 진동하중과 비교하였다. 파라미터 연구를 통하여 HART II 시험에서의 최소 진동 조건에서는 진동하중이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 허브 진동하중을 감소시키기 위한 최적의 제어입력은 3/rev의 가진주파수에서 찾을 수 있었고 0.8도의 진폭과 350도의 위상각을 갖는 제어입력을 이용하는 경우에 기준조건대비 약 45%의 허브 진동하중 감소효과를 얻었다. HHC 기법을 이용하는 경우의 로터의 파워 감소는 5% 미만으로 나타나고, 성능이 향상되는 경우에는 대부분 진동이 증가하는 경향을 보였다.

Although extracellular $Ca^{2+}$ entry through the voltage-dependent $Ca^{2+}$ channels plays an important role in the spontaneous phasic contractions of the pregnant rat myometrium, the role of the T-type $Ca^{2+}$ channels has yet to be fully identified. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the T-type $Ca^{2+}$ channel in the spontaneous phasic contractions of the rat myometrium. Spontaneous phasic contractions and $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ were measured simultaneously in the longitudinal strips of female Sprague-Dawley rats late in their pregnancy (on day 18 ${\sim}$ 20 of gestation: term=22 days). The expression of T-type $Ca^{2+}$ channel mRNAs or protein levels was measured. Cumulative addition of low concentrations (< 1 ${\mu}M$) of nifedipine, a L-type $Ca^{2+}$ channel blocker, produced a decrease in the amplitude of the spontaneous $Ca^{2+}$ transients and contractions with no significant change in frequency. The mRNAs and proteins encoding two subunits (${\alpha}$ 1G, ${\alpha}$ 1H) of the T-type $Ca^{2+}$ channels were expressed in longitudinal muscle layer of rat myometrium. Cumulative addition of mibefradil, NNC 55-0396 or nickel induced a concentration-dependent inhibition of the amplitude and frequency of the spontaneous $Ca^{2+}$ transients and contractions. Mibefradil, NNC 55-0396 or nickel also attenuated the slope of rising phase of spontaneous $Ca^{2+}$ transients consistent with the reduction of the frequency. It is concluded that T-type $Ca^{2+}$ channels are expressed in the pregnant rat myometrium and may play a key role for the regulation of the frequency of spontaneous phasic contractions.

This study was performed to investigate the factors related to vibration of temporomandibular joint during mandibular opening movement. For this study, 144 patients with temporomandibular disorders were randomly selected. Angle's classification, lateral guidance pattern, range of maximal mouth opening, preferred chewing side, and affected side were investigated clinically. Mandibular torque rotational movement during opening was recorded with $BioEGN^{(R)}$ and vibration of temporomandibular joint during opening was recorded with $Sonopak^{(R)}$. After clinical diagnosis was made, visual analogue scale(VAS) was used for evaluation of clinical progress of the subject's chief complaints. The author calculated VAS treatment index(VAS Ti) from the record of VAS. The more VAS Ti was, the less remission of subjective symptom was, The data were analyzed with SAS/Stat program and the results of this study were as follows: 1. There were no significant difference in all the variables of joint vibration by age and sex. 2. Integral and peak amplitude in patients of Angle's class I were higher than those of class II or III patients. Integral in patients of group function was higher than that in patients of canine guidance or other types of lateral excursion. 3. As to Angle's classification or lateral guidance type, there were almost not significant difference between subgroup of same class or type and subgroup of different class or type on both sides. And there were also almost not difference between one side and the other side related to preferred chewing side or affected side. 4. Patients with disk displacement with reduction showed higher value of integral and peak amplitude than any other patients. 5. Joint vibration variables significantly correlated with VAS Ti of pain. with clinical range of mouth opening, and with ingredients of mandibular torque rotational movement.
