광자선 출력측정시 업무 효율을 높이기 위한 소형 물팬톰(듀얼윈도우 팬톰)을 개발하였다. 이 팬톰은 고에너지 광자선의 출력측정뿐만아니라 선질지표의 결정에 적합하다. 이 팬톰은 두개의 창을 가지고 있으며 독립된 두 축에 의해 회전할 수 있도록 제작되어있다. 이 때 두 축은 전리함 이동 없이 조직팬톰선량비와 깊이선량율비를 결정하기 위한 것이다. 코발트조사기와 선형가속기의 고에너지 광자선을 이용하여 팬톰을 평가하였으며, 기준값과 비교할 때 Co-60의 경우 0.2% 그리고 가속기 x-선에 대해 1.4% 이내로 일치하였다. 이 팬톰은 발생 가능한 인적오차를 방지할 수 있기 때문에 일상의 출력측정에 매우 실용적이라고 본다.

This study investigates the potential components for academic research collaboration, and the factors that make it possible to achieve higher academic productivity. The components include collaboration factors and a collaboration model. We use two major collaboration factors to develop a framework for understanding the mechanisms that influence academic research collaborations: motivational factors and mediating factors. Motivational factors include self-motivation and trust whereas mediating factors are collaboration orientation and peer support. We analyze the effect for use of e-collaboration with research performance, reward, and satisfaction with e-research output. A survey of academicians was conducted, and by using the factor analysis and the structural equation model with SPSS 20 AMOS, we illustrate the possible influence of these factors on research performance and satisfaction. We discovered that both motivational and mediating factors play important roles on the success of academic research. This study offers several implications for academicians. We develop a parsimonious research model, which is related to e-collaboration in academic research. This unique model offers academicians to achieve good publication output from the research team. The motivational factor, self-motivation and trust, are important factors which has received positive impact of mediating factor collaboration orientation and peer support. Our research sheds light on the crucial factors for use of e-collaboration which offer the ultimate effect on performance and satisfaction with e-research output. Satisfaction motivates people to work more and more on the field of their interest, thereby influencing the performance of academicians. Rewards should be distributed according to performance of the individual, which will motivate the person to become more enthusiastic for his work of interest. Our evidence suggests that in understating the collaborative process, one must account for the context in which the collaboration occurs, the motivation of the collaborators, the scope and nature of the project, the roles and activities undertaken, and interpersonal processes such as trust. Researchers' motivations for engaging in collaboration were both instrumental and intrinsic.

본 논문은 단일입력 단일출력 비선형 계통에 대해서 강인한 출력궤환 제어기를 제시한다. 이전의 출력궤환 비선형 제어기가 모두 동적인 관측기 기반으로 설계된 반면 본 논문에서는 출력의 과거값들만을 이용하여 상태변수를 추정하는 새로운 방식을 제안하고 이를 후방차분 상태추정기라 명했다. 실제 상태변수값과 추정치와의 오차를 보상하기 위해서 제어입력에 강인제어항을 추가하였고 그것의 이득을 자동으로 조정하는 적응 알고리듬을 채택했다. 전체 폐루프 시스템은 출력 추종 오차가 점근적으로 안정하도록 그리고 모든 신호가 유계이도록 제어입력과 적응법칙이 설계된다. 제시된 제어기를 역진자 계통에 적용한 모의실험을 통해서 성능을 검증하였다.

The current study proposes the design of a hybrid series-parallel resonant converter (SPRC) and a three-stage Cockcroft-Walton voltage multiplier for precisely adjusting the power generated by a continuous wave (CW) $CO_2$ laser. The design of a hybrid SPRC, called LCC resonant converter, is described, and the fundamental approximation of a high-voltage and high-frequency (HVHF) transformer with a resonant tank is discussed. The results of the current study show that the voltage drop and ripple of a three-stage Cockcroft-Walton voltage multiplier depend on frequency. The power generated by a CW $CO_2$ laser can be precisely adjusted by a variable-frequency controller using a DSP (TMS320F2812) microprocessor. The proposed LCC converter could be used to obtain a maximum laser output power of 23 W. Moreover, it could precisely adjust the laser output power within 4.3 to 23 W at an operating frequency range of 187.5 to 370 kHz. The maximum efficiency of the $CO_2$ laser system is approximately 16.5%, and the minimum ripple of output voltage is about 1.62%.

Photovoltaic (PV) modules output changes noticeable with variations in temperature and irradiance. In general it is has been shown that a $1^{\circ}C$ increase in temperature results in a 0.5% drop in output. In this paper, seven PV module types are analyzed for variation in temperature and irradiance, and the resulting output characteristics examined. The 7 modules types utilized are as follows; 3 poly crystalline modules, 2 single crystalline modules, 1 back contact single crystalline module and 1 HIT module. 3 groups of experiments are then conducted on the modules; tests with varying irradiance values, tests with module temperature varying under $25^{\circ}C$ and tests with module temperature varying over $25^{\circ}C$. The experiments results show that as temperature rises the follow is observed; Pmax decreases by 0.6%, Voc decreases by about 0.4%, and Isc increasing by between 0.03%${\sim}$0.08%. In addition, an irradiance decrease of 100 w/m2 translates into a 10% drop in Pmax.

A multilayer square-type piezoelectric transformer with a hole at the center was investigated in this paper. Temperature distribution at the center was improved by using this construction, therefore increasing input voltage and output power. This model was simulated and investigated successfully by applying a finite element method (FEM) in ATILA software. An optimized structure was then fabricated, examined, and compared to the simulation results. Electrical characteristics, including output voltage and output power, were measured at different load resistances. The temperature distribution was also monitored using an infrared camera. The piezoelectric transformer operated at first radial vibration mode and a frequency area of 70 kHz. The 16 W output power was achieved in a three-layer transformer with 96% efficiency and $20^{\circ}C$ temperature rise from room temperature under 115 V driving voltage, 100 ${\Omega}$ matching load, $28{\times}28{\times}1.8mm$ size, and 2 mm hole diameter. With these square-type multilayer piezoelectric transformers, the temperature was concentrated around the hole and lower than in piezoelectric transformers without a hole.

A highly efficient class E power amplifier is demonstrated for application to wireless power transfer system. The amplifier is designed with an L-type matching at the output for harmonic rejection and output matching. The power loss and the effect of each component in the amplifier with the matching circuit are analyzed with the current ratio transmitted to the output load. Inductors with a quality factor of more than 120 are used in a dc feed and the matching circuit to improve transmission efficiency. The single-ended amplifier with 20 V supply voltage shows 7.7 W output power and 90.8% power added efficiency at 6.78 MHz. The wireless power transfer (WPT) system with the amplifier shows 5.4 W transmitted power and 82.3% overall efficiency. The analysis and measurements show that high-Q inductors are required for the amplifier design to realize highly efficient WPT system.

In 2008, the global photovoltaic(PV) market reached 5.6GW and the cumulative PV power installed totalled almost 15GW compared to 9GW in 2007. Due to a favourable feed-in-tariff, Korea emerged in 2008 as the 4th largest PV market worldwide. PV power installation rose 495.5 percent to 268MW in 2008 compare to 45MW in 2007. However many PV systems are not installed in suitable part which is concerned about geometrical factor. It is generally recognized that the actual output of PV system in field is a function of orientation, tilt angle, irradiance, temperature, soiling and various system-related losses. Thus this paper shows that a experimental result of PV modules(A group) with uniform azimuth angle and PV modules(B group) with non-uniform azimuth angle. As a result, the electrical output of B group is decreased 48.8% as compared with electrical output of A group.

This study attempts (1) to analyze the changing pattern of organizational control by investigating the impacts of ERP implementations on the determinants of organizational control types and (2) to compare the performance variances based on the fitness between implementation of ERP and the changed mode of organizational control. Research results reveal that firms with ERP shows high degree of information integration, which partially affects the determinants of organizational control types. Also, results indicate that firms now with ERP shows the higher levels of both behavior and output control than without ERP, and the magnitude of change in behavior control level was greater than that of output control level. Finally, this research suggests that while the firms that implemented ERP for the purpose of quality and service improvement need to more focus on behavior control than on output control, the firms for the purpose of cost reduction need to excercise more output control in order to establish a cost effective control strategy.

A high voltage and nanosecond Blumlein pulse generator has been developed to produce an output pulse whose voltage level is greater than 250 kV and pulse duration 5 ns. The generator consists of various components such as a charging circuit, a pulse transformer, and a spark gap switch. As a heart of the generator, a Blumlein pulse forming line has been constructed in the cylindrical form using three cylindrical aluminum electrodes that are placed concentrically. Unlike the ideal Blumlein line, the output pulse of an actual Blumlein line may be affected by stray inductances and capacitances of switching and charging components, thereby degrading the performance of the generator. In this paper, PSPICE simulations have been performed to examine effects of stray inductances and capacitances on waveforms of output pulses. Simulation results show that the pulse waveform is significantly distorted mainly by the stray inductance of the spark gap switch.
