In this paper, characteristics of cryogenic liquid oxygen was examined during cold flow of KSR-III main engine at each stage. The effect of venting was examined at the stage of cooling and at the pressurization stage, the interaction between nitrogen gas and liquid oxygen was also examined. The characteristic of liquid oxygen in the engine manifold was analyzed. The results showed that venting was the primary role at the cooling process and the interaction of nitrogen gas and liquid oxygen in the run tank is limited at the surface area. With the sampling rate of 1KHz static and dynamic pressure were measured in the rocket engine manifold and in the LOX supply equipment. 32.5mm and 38mm orifice were installed for the tests and pressure condition of liquid oxygen was 23Bar, 29Bar, 41Bar. Increase of orifice diameter and decrease of supply pressure reduced the perturbation of pressure in engine manifold.

The aim of this study was to verify an E-driving system of a 44 kW-class electric tractor using agricultural workload data. Workload data were acquired during field test (plow tillage, rotary tillage, loader operation, field driving, asphalt driving) using a conventional tractor with a load measurement system. These workload data were converted to data of a 44 kW-class tractor based on the load factor of the engine. These data were used to verify the design of the E-driving system of an electric tractor. High-load operations such as plow tillage, rotary tillage, and loader operation could be performed at stage L and stage M. High-speed operation (asphalt driving) could be effectively performed at stage H using a rated rotational speed of the motor. As a result, the E-driving system of the electric tractor was possible to perform all major agricultural operations according to gear stages of range shift. Based on results of this research, we plan to develop an electric tractor equipped with an E-driving system and conduct research on actual vehicle verification in the future.

In this paper, we propose the development of nitrogen cooling equipment for personalized local area. The proposed equipment consists of a cold air supply module, a body, and nitrogen injection with the following characteristics. First, it automatically controls the amount and time of cold air supply by utilizing information measuring skin temperature with volumetric temperature sensors, so it can have a competitive edge in function by ensuring complete safety. Second, if the distance measuring sensor is applied to the skin for more than a certain distance, it can block the cold air or control the discharge of nitrogen in conjunction with the control GUI to improve the efficiency of higher cooling therapy while providing safe management. Third, by installing a control module that can control the supply of nitrogen, the cost of maintenance can be minimized by minimizing the loss of nitrogen. Experiments at an external testing agency to evaluate the performance of the proposed equipment showed that the accuracy of the temperature sensor was measured in the range of ±3.8%, which is lower than the world's highest level(±5%), with a range of 110℃ to -160℃ similar to the world's highest level. Distance accuracy was measured in the range of ±3.0%, lower than the world's highest level(±5%), and weight accuracy in the range of ±0.1%, lower than the world's highest level(±5%). In addition, emission control was measured in four stages, higher than the world's highest level(stage 1) and nitrogen use was measured at 0.8L/min below the world's highest(6L/min). Therefore, the effectiveness of the methods proposed in this paper was demonstrated because they produced the same results as the world's highest levels.

With advancements in semiconductor device technologies, manufacturing processes are getting more complex and it became more difficult to maintain tighter process control. As the number of processing step increased for fabricating complex chip structure, potential fault inducing factors are prevail and their allowable margins are continuously reduced. Therefore, one of the key to success in semiconductor manufacturing is highly accurate and fast fault detection and classification at each stage to reduce any undesired variation and identify the cause of the fault. Sensors in the equipment are used to monitor the state of the process. The idea is that whenever there is a fault in the process, it appears as some variation in the output from any of the sensors monitoring the process. These sensors may refer to information about pressure, RF power or gas flow and etc. in the equipment. By relating the data from these sensors to the process condition, any abnormality in the process can be identified, but it still holds some degree of certainty. Our hypothesis in this research is to capture the features of equipment condition data from healthy process library. We can use the health data as a reference for upcoming processes and this is made possible by mathematically modeling of the acquired data. In this work we demonstrate the use of recurrent neural network (RNN) has been used. RNN is a dynamic neural network that makes the output as a function of previous inputs. In our case we have etch equipment tool set data, consisting of 22 parameters and 9 runs. This data was first synchronized using the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm. The synchronized data from the sensors in the form of time series is then provided to RNN which trains and restructures itself according to the input and then predicts a value, one step ahead in time, which depends on the past values of data. Eight runs of process data were used to train the network, while in order to check the performance of the network, one run was used as a test input. Next, a mean squared error based probability generating function was used to assign probability of fault in each parameter by comparing the predicted and actual values of the data. In the future we will make use of the Bayesian Networks to classify the detected faults. Bayesian Networks use directed acyclic graphs that relate different parameters through their conditional dependencies in order to find inference among them. The relationships between parameters from the data will be used to generate the structure of Bayesian Network and then posterior probability of different faults will be calculated using inference algorithms.

The problems of lack of skilled worker and poor productivity at the construction site continue to be raised, and the introduction of construction automation as one of the solutions to this has been considered. The development of various types of equipment and systems has been carried out, especially for earthwork operations with multiple construction equipment. However, the level of commercialization of developed equipment or systems is very limited. Although the single-product type of earthwork equipment has been applied to the site, the integrated type of earthwork system is still in the field testing stage. Considering these constraints, the limited budget and research period, a strategy is needed to identify which technology areas and core technologies should be developed first. In this study, the technology areas and detailed core technologies that are essential for the development of earthwork systems at the level of commercialization are set and the priority of development is determined. In addition, the earthwork system that has been developed so far is analyzed and the detailed development direction is presented based on it. The findings can be used for a decision making to set the priority for core technologies that should be developed first in the limited budget and period.

The noise and vibration which are occurred by equipment and rail under the train are directly delivered to passenger and effect on comfort. For this reason, Floating floor structure has been applied to Rolling Sotck for minimizing the noise and vibration. And in respect of Floating floor, the strength is an important design element. Because the train has many heavy equipments and accommodates lots of passenger. At the early design stage of Floating floor, different joint type and thickness of plywood, etc. were applied and some problem happened. To solve the problems and apply to the future projects, the standard model of Floating floor structure was required. To find optimum design and standard model for Floating floor structure of Rolling Stock, the applied Floating floor models were analysed by CAE (computer-aided engineering).
