In mobile phones of multimedia era, microspeakers of high qualify sound are essential parts to generate human voice in speaker phone and MP3 song player. In this paper, two types of microspeakers, outer permanent magnet (PM) and combined PM type, are analyzed using electromagnetic, mechanical and their coupling analysis. For performance comparison, voice coil diameter is chosen as a design parameter to change excitation position and magnet volume for both types. For combined PM type, sound pressure level (SPL) is improved due to increased PM volume compared to outer PM type. Also, with the decreased voice coil diameter for combined PM type, the 1st resonant mode of the diaphragm is more efficiently excited due to concentrative excitation, resulting in lower and broader frequency range. Therefore, it can be said that the combined PM type microspeakers are more advantageous for high performance microspeaker which are essential for multimedia era.

The fatigue has been considered the most failure mode of metal, ceramic, and composite materials. In this paper, numerical experiments to asses the usefulness of two Dixon's methods(small and large samples) and 14 S-N methods on assumptions of lognormal fatigue limit distribution under RFL(Random Fatigue Limit) model are conducted for staircase(or up-and-down) test and compared by MSE(Mean Squared Error) and bias for estimates of mean log-fatigue limit. Also, guidelines for staircase test plans to choose initial stress level and step size are recommended from numerical experiments including sensitivity analyses. In addition, the parametric bootstrap method to construct a confidence interval for the mean of log-fatigue limit by the percentile method using a transition probability matrix of Markov chain is presented and illustrated with an example.

Tube hydroforming process is generally consisted with pre-bending, preforming and hydroforming processes. Among forming defects which may occur in tube hydroforming such as buckling, wrinkling and bursting, the wrinkling and bursting by local instability under excessive tensile stress mode were mainly caused by thinning phenomenon in the manufacturing process. Thus the accurate prediction and suitable evaluation of the thinning phenomenon play an important role in designing and producing the successfully hydroformed parts without any failures. In this work, the formability on hydroformed part for automobile, i.e. engine cradle, was evaluated using finite element analysis. The initial tube radius, loading path with axial feeding force and internal pressure, and preformed configuration after preforming process were considered as the dominant process parameters in total tube hydroforming process. The effects on these process parameters could be confirmed through the numerical experiments with respect to several kinds of finite element simulation conditions. The degree of enhancement on formability with each process parameters such as initial tube radius, loading path and preform configuration were also compared. Therefore, it is noted that the evaluation approach of the formability on hydroformed parts for lots of industrial fields proposed in this study will provide one of feasible methods to satisfy the increasing practical demands for the improvement of the formability in tube hydroforming processes.

This paper presents the dynamic characteristics of MR impact damper for vehicle collision system. Various types of mechanism have been proposed for reduce transmitted force to vehicle chassis and finally protect occupants from injury. In the case of frontal collision, the bumper make main role of isolation material for collision attenuation. In this study, proposed bumper system composed of MR impact damper and structures. The MR impact damper is to adopted MR fluid which has reversible properties with applied magnetic field. MR fluid operates under flow mode with Bingham flow and bellows is used for generation of fluid flow. Mathematical model of MR impact damper incorporated with MR fluid is established. Field dependent damping force is investigated with time and frequency domain. The MR impact damper is then incorporated with vehicle crash system. The governing equation of motion of vehicle model is formulated considering occupant model. Dynamic characteristics of vehicle collision system investigated with computer simulation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether management strategic types and entry strategy moderate the influence of Guanxi on the relationship performance between Korean apparel firms & Chinese partners. For these purposes, three hypotheses were developed and data was collected from 85 Korean apparel firms which have a business relationship with Chinese partners. Data was analyzed with SPSS methods such as frequency, factor analysis, multiple-regression, and hierarchical-regression analysis. The results were as follows: First, 'Prior to Guanxi' and 'Execution of Guanxi', which were sub-factors of Guanxi, influence positively on the relationship performance. And also the influence of 'Prior to Guanxi' was higher than 'Execution of Guanxi' on the relationship performance. Second, the influence of the 'Prior to Guanxi' on the relationship performance was stronger when Defender strategic type was used rather than other types. Third, the influence of the 'Prior to Guanxi' on the relationship performance was stronger when the entry scope of 'Both production & distribution in China' and the entry mode of 'Entry through Agent' were chosen.

The damageability and repairability of similar platform type vehicles could be very concerned with design optimization. In all the vehicles crash tested, small size passenger vehicles were weakness in aspect of damageability and repairability. The most critical area appears to be repair cost considering that parts cost is the largest portion of total repair cost segments. Besides repair cost, attaching method of front sidemember and subframe are placed special importance for impact energy absorption and damageability and repairability. So in order to improve damageability and repairability of vehicle structure and body component of the monocoque type passenger vehicles, the end of front side member and front back beam should be designed with optimum level and to supply the end of front side member as a partial condition approx 300mm. The effectiveness of design concept on the 40% offset frontal impact characteristics of the passenger vehicle structure is investigated and summarized.

In IEEE 802.11b wireless LAN, stations keep synchronization by receiving beacons being periodically sent by the AP (access point) when they run in low power mode. Beacon transmission is delayed if wireless channel is busy at a scheduled TBTT (target beacon transmission time), and stations must be awake until they receive the delayed beacon. In this paper, we propose a scheme that stations get their transmission delayed if they have little time for successful data transmission by the next TBTT. Beacon transmission without delay is guaranteed at every TBTT with this method so that the awake time of low power stations to receive beacon can be reduced. The proposed method is simulated and its characteristics ore described with the analysis of the results. The measured results in terms of beacon delay show some enhancement in energy consumption.

The microstrutural changes of mayonnaise during storage were examined by light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Fresh mayonnaise was composed of heterogenous population of dispersed spherical oil droplets and droplet size was normally distributed with one mode. During storage at $60^{\circ}C\;and\;-10^{\circ}C$, a shift in droplet size distribution toward larger droplets was observed, as a result of coalescence of lipid droplets. Turbidimetric study also confirmed that coalescence was occurring during this accelerated aging treatments. Measurements obtained from SEM microgrphs provided better determination of smaller droplets and resulted in lower mean diameter of droplets than those obtained from LM. From these results, SEM was found to be an advantageous method of examining emulsion products as compared to LM, providing a better resolution of small droplets and a more representative view of droplet distribution, as dilution of the sample was avoided.

Optical properties of aerosols associated with haze events over Seoul were examined using ground-based skyradiometer and satellite-borne CALIOP and MODIS measurements over the 2009~2010 period. It is shown that aerosol optical thickness (AOT), ${\AA}ngstr{\ddot{o}}m$ exponents (${\alpha}$), and fine-mode particles increase during the haze events. The CALIOP-measured vertical profiles of aerosol during the haze events revealed that most of aerosols are loaded within layers below 4 km altitude. A large portion of these events appear to be related to the long-range transport of aerosols from China; about 35% and 18% of the haze events observed over Seoul were traced back to northern China and southern China, respectively. Compared with optical properties for locally-induced haze events (25%), these long-range transported aerosols are found to have relatively higher AOTs.
