We demonstrated the pretilt angle effect on the viewing angle properties of a single-domain fringe-field switching (FFS) liquid crystal (LC) mode. By performing the Póincare sphere analysis, we investigated, in detail, the origin of the viewing angle asymmetry that exists in the single-domain FFS LC mode both in the field-on and field-off states. Using this analysis, we confirmed that the pretilt angle reduces the viewing angle symmetry in the single-domain FFS LC mode. Finally, we examined the effect of a zero pretilt angle on the viewing angle symmetry by evaluating real single-domain FFS LC cells.

In this paper, the mechanical characteristics of ultrasonic cold forged technology (UCFT) used for the trimming knife and the effects of ultrasonic vibration energy (UVE) into the trimming process on the state of the strip cutting face were studied. And a diagnosis system to quality control for trimming knife and strip cutting face was developed and installed in plant. By the plant application of UCFT, service life of knife was more increased over 100% than that of conventional knife. And using the developed diagnosis system, the knife breakage and saw ear have been perfectly detected and quality control of trimming face is obtained effectively.

Flue gas recirculation (FGR) is a method widely adopted to control NOx in combustion system. The recirculated flue gas decreases flame temperature and reaction rate, resulting in the decrease in thermal NO production. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the recirculated flue gas in fuel stream, that is, the fuel induced recirculation (FIR), could enhance a much improved reduction in NOx per unit mass of recirculated gas, as compared to the conventional FGR in air. In the present study, the effect of FGR/FIR methods on NOx reduction in turbulent swirl flames by using N$_2$ and CO$_2$ as diluent gases to simulate flue gases. Results show that CO$_2$ dilution is more effective in NO reduction because of large temperature drop due to the larger specific heat of CO$_2$ compared to N$_2$ and FIR is more effective to reduce NO emission than FGR when the same recirculation ratio of dilution gas is used.

High-precision wire is one of the most important components of lead production. However, no studies have been performed on the dimensional tolerance of these wires, and their capabilities have been deduced through trial and error. Therefore, PIANO, a commercial PIDO tool, was used to systematically determine the optimal parameters for stress minimization. The values obtained from the optimum design were modeled and analyzed using LS-Dyna, a finite element analysis program. Maximum stress was reduced by about 10% compared to its initial values, and the wire now satisfies dimensional tolerance ($10{\mu}m$).

Purpose - This study aims to find ways to create win-win market strategies for department stores, vendors, and customers by studying the operation of the Teukyakmeip system-the distinctive trade system of Korean department stores-and preceding cases. Research design, data, and methodology - We simultaneously examined various materials, analyzed preceding research, and interviewed department store managers (the parties to the Teukyakmeip transaction). Results - We examined whether the Teukyakmeip transactions are really beneficial to department stores, but unfavorable to vendors. Significant results emerge including figures and tables. Conclusions - Department stores will implement and develop the system to advance the win-win partnership by minimizing errors and drawbacks from the system.

Glucose uptake plays a pivotal role in maintaining whole body glucose homeostasis in adipocytes and skeletal muscles. In the present study we have shown that Fructus Piperis Longi Extracts (FPLE) can stimulate glucose uptake in OP9 adipocytes. The increasing effects of FPLE on glucose uptake were inhibited by compound C pretreatment, which means that the glucose uptake effects by FPLE were carried out by AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation. Further studies revealed that FPLE stimulated glucose transport occurs through a mechanism involving extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) activation.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) strains responsible for recent outbreaks in the United States have been occurring in Mainland Korea since late 2013. Over the past 10 years, PEDV outbreaks have not been reported on Jeju Island. However, in late March of 2014, PEDV re-emerged on Jeju Island and was found to be genetically identical to PEDV strains currently circulating in Mainland Korea. The present study was conducted to provide a better understanding of the epidemiology of PEDV and more effective preventive measures against PED.

시퀀스 데이타는 크기를 가지는 일련의 값들로 이루어져 있어 일반적인 상품 데이타와는 달리 서로간의 관계성을 파악하기가 어려운 것으로 알려져 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 관계성을 보이는 시퀀스를 유사 시퀀스로 검색해 내는 기법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 유클리드 거리만으로 유사도가 결정되던 기존의 유사 검색을 변형하여 시퀀스의 상대적 위치와 형태를 고려한 시퀀스의 변화율을 척도로 사용하였으며 고차원이라는 문제를 해결하기 위하여 관계성을 수치로 표현하였다. 또한 본 논문에서는 기존의 하르 웨이블릿을 변형한 기하 웨이블릿을 이용하여 인덱스를 구성하였으며 보정 과정을 통해 기존의 유사 검색 기법으로도 문제가 변형될 수 있음을 보였다.

The best simulation condition for the fiber collimator that uses ball lenses was investigated. This kind of fiber collimator can be used in a Micro-Optical-Cross-Connects(MOXC). MOXC is composed of collimating ball lenses, micro mirrors and single-mode fibers. In order to design a MOXC, it is very important to calculate beam path, beam radius, divergence angle that determines the insertion loss of the MOXC. Since the beam profile from the fiber facet is not exact Gaussian profile, it was found that the simulation condition in which beam waist exists on the fiber facet, ignoring Numerical Aperture(NA), gives best agreement with the experimental results. Beam radii were measured with conventional knife edge method.

IT 콘텐츠 소비 주체 유입 규모는 지속적으로 증가할 뿐만 아니라, 다루는 데이터의 크기가 커지고, 트래픽 또한 기하급수적으로 늘어난다. 비즈니스 분류도 세분화되고 콘텐츠가 소비되는 속도도 점점 가속화되고 있다. 현대의 애플리케이션은 레거시나 신규를 가릴 것 없이 지속적으로 사용자의 기호에 맞는 새로운 서비스를 제공하기 위해서 매우 기민한 개발 프로세스를 가질 필요가 있다. 따라서 이 같은 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 개발자들이 자주 쓰는 필수적이고 반복적인 기능과 개념들을 한데 모아 구축한 인프라 스트럭처와 이를 기반으로 서비스 규모를 최소화하고 관계를 통해 확장하는 아키텍처를 제안하였다. 제안하는 아키텍처는 비즈니스를 쉽고 빠르게 최소 단위 애플리케이션으로 구현하도록 지원함으로 인해, 개발에 소요되는 비용을 줄일 수 있다.
