The ferritic stainless steels are generally considered to have poor weldability compared with that of the austenitic stainless steels. However the primary advantages of ferritic stainless steels include lower material cost than the more commonly used austenitic stainless steels and a greater resistance to stress corrosion cracking. Thus, the weldability of ferritic stainless steels was investigated in this study. In concerning the weldability, Grain size measurement test, Erichsen test and Varestraint test were involved. full penetration welds were produced by autogeneous direct current straight polarity (DCSP) and pulsed currents gas tungsten arc welding (GIAW) and the effect of pulsed currents welding on the welds was compared to that of DCSP welding. The results showed that pulsed current was effective to refine grain size in the weld metal and the finest grain size was obtained at the frequency of 150Hz. In addition, the ductility of welds was lower than that of base metal. Finally, autogeneous type 444 welds were less susceptible to macro solidification cracks, but more sensitive to micro cracks; SEM/EDS analysis indicated that all the inclusions in the crack showed enrichment of Mn, Si, O and S.

An interleaved bridgeless buck-boost AC/DC converter is presented in this paper to achieve the characteristics of low conduction loss, a high power factor and low harmonic and ripple currents. There are only two power semiconductors in the line current path instead of the three power semiconductors in a conventional boost AC/DC converter. A buck-boost converter operated in the boundary conduction mode (BCM) is adopted to control the active switches to achieve the following characteristics: no diode reverse recovery problem, zero current switching (ZCS) turn-off of the rectifier diodes, ZCS turn-on of the power switches, and a low DC bus voltage to reduce the voltage stress of the MOSFETs in the second DC/DC converter. Interleaved pulse-width modulation (PWM) is used to control the switches such that the input and output ripple currents are reduced such that the output capacitance can be reduced. The voltage doubler topology is adopted to double the output voltage in order to extend the useable energy of the capacitor when the line voltage is off. The circuit configuration, principle operation, system analysis, and a design example are discussed and presented in detail. Finally, experiments on a 500W prototype are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed converter.

수평적으로 무한히 넓은 천해에 시간에 따라 크기와 방향이 바뀌는 바람이 불 때의 해수의 유량transports)에 대한 이론적인 계산을 할 수 있는 모델을 만들 었다. 이 모델에서 사용하는 선형화된 이론식은 가속력, 편향력(Coriolis force), 바람의 응력(wind stress) 및 저면 마찰력을 포함하고 있으며, 이 모델로부터 해수 유량에 대한 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 일정한 바람이 계속 불 때의 해수유량은 해저면 마찰로 인하여 바람 오른쪽 방향 90 보다 작다. 바람이 불기 시작한 후의 천이상태(transient state)의 유량은 정상류적(steady)인 에크만류( Ekman current) 에다가 시간이 지남에 따라서 크기가 감소하는 관성진동(inertial oscillation)과의 합성으로 나타난다. 바람의 크기가 정현적(sinrsoidal)으로 바뀌는 경우는 유량 벡터 는 바람 변화의 주기와 같은 시간동안 일주회전을 하는 유량타원(transport ellipse) 을 그린다. 바람의 방향이 바뀔 경우 해수유량은 자유관성진동(free inertial oscillation)과 강제진동의 합으로 나타나는데, 이 경우 강제진동의 주기는 바람 방향의 회전주기(rotation period)와 같다. 이 이론적인 해수유량모델은 해에서 시간에 따라 바람이 바뀔 경우 해수와 영양염의 이동에 대한 해석을 하는데 유용 하다.

The stress effect of SiGe p-type metal oxide semiconductors field effect transistors(MOSFETs) has been investigated to compare device properties using Si bulk and partially depleted silicon on insulator(PD SOI). The electrical properties in SiGe PD SOI presented enhancements in subthreshold slope and drain induced barrier lowering in comparison to SiGe bulk. The reliability of gate oxides on bulk Si and PD SOI has been evaluated using constant voltage stressing to investigate their breakdown (~ 8.5 V) characteristics. Gate leakage was monitored as a function of voltage stressing time to understand the breakdown phenomena for both structures. Stress induced leakage currents are obtained from I-V measurements at specified stress intervals. The 1/f noise was observed to follow the typical $1/f^{\gamma}$ (${\gamma}\;=\;1$) in SiGe bulk devices, but the abnormal behavior ${\gamma}\;=\;2$ in SiGe PD SOI. The difference of noise frequency exponent is mainly attributed to traps at silicon oxide interfaces. We will discuss stress induced instability in conjunction with the 1/f noise characteristics in detail.

Numerical model introduced in this study combines wave refraction-diffraction, breaking, bottom friction, lateral mixing, and critical shear stress and three sub-models for simulating waves, currents, and bottom change were briefly discussed. Simulations of beach processes and harbor sedimentation were also described at the coast neighboring Bangpo Harbor, Anmyundo, Chungnam, where the area has suffered from accumulation of drifting sand in a small fishing harbor with a wide tidal range. We also made model test for the case of a narrow tidal range at Nakdong river's estuary area to understand the effect of water level variation on the littoral drift. Simulations are conducted in terms of incident wave direction and tidal level. Characteristics of wave transformation, nearshore current, sediment transport, and bottom change are shown and analyzed. We found from the simulation that the tidal level impact to the sediment transport is very important and we should apply the numerical model with different water level to analyze sediment transport mechanism correctly. Although the model study gave reasonable description of beach processes and harbor sedimentation mechanism, it is necessary to collect lots of field observation data, including waves, tides and bottom materials, etc. for better prediction.

A high efficiency and low device stress voltage and current clamping BVS PWM asymmetrical half bridge converter is proposed in this paper. To achieve the ZVS of power switches along the wide load range, the transformer leakage inductor $L_{Ikg}$ is increased. Then, to solve the problem related to ringing in the secondary rectifier caused by the resonance between $L_{Ikg}$ and rectifier junction capacitors, the proposed converter employs a voltage and current clamping cell, which helps voltages and currents of rectifier diodes to be clamped at the output voltage and output current, respectively. Therefore, no RC-snubber for rectifier diodes is needed and a high efficiency as well as low noise output voltage can be realized. In addition, since all energy stored in $L_{Ikg}$ is transferred to the output side, the circulating energy problem can be effectively solved and duty loss does net exist. The operational principle, theoretical analysis, and design considerations are presented. To confirm the operation, validity, and features of the proposed circuit, experimental results from a 425W, 385-170Vdc prototype are presented.

In the past, the predictions of beach processes and harbor sedimentation were mainly relied on the hydraulic model tests and empirical methods. In recent years, however, as computers have come into wide use, more accurate models have gradually been developed and thus replaced those conventional methods. For prediction of topographical change near the coastal area, we need informations of wave and current conditions in the numerical model which should be calculated in advance. Numerical model introduced in this study combines wave refraction-diffraction, breaking, bottom friction, lateral mixing, and critical shear stress and three sub-models for simulating waves, currents, and bottom change were briefly discussed. Simulations of beach processes and harbor sedimentation were also described at the coast neighboring Bangpo Harbor, Anmyundo, Chungnam, where the area has suffered accumulation of drifting sand in a small fishing harbor with a wide tidal range. We also made model test for the new layout of the harbor and planned south breakwater for preventing intrusion of sand. Although the model study gave reasonable description of beach processes and harbor sedimentation mechanism, it is necessary to collect lots of field observation data, including waves, tides and bottom materials, etc. for better prediction.
