Optimized BMP plans for controlling water quality using the Pareto trade-off surface curve in upper basin of Namgang Dam is proposed. The proposed alternatives consist of BMP installation scenarios in which the reduction efficiency of non-point pollutants is maximized in a given budget. The multi-objective optimization process for determining the optimal alternatives was performed without direct implementation of a watershed model such as SWAT analysis, thereby reducing the time taken. The shortening of the calculation time further enhances the applicability of the multi-objective optimization technique in preparing regional water quality management alternatives. In this study, different types of BMP are applied depending on the land use conditions. Fertilizer input control and vegetative filter strip are considered as alternatives to applying BMP to the field but only control of fertilizer input can be applied to rice paddies. Fertilizer input control and vegetative filter strip can be installed separately or simultaneously in a hydrologic response unit. Finally, 175 BMP application alternatives were developed for the water quality management of the upper river basin of Namgang dam. The proposed application alternative can be displayed on the map, which has the advantage of clearly defining the BMP installation location.

Successful early diagnosis of cancer diseases such as lung, prostate, liver and adrenocortical carcinoma is a key step in determining the cost of treatment, survival rate, and cure rate. Most of current cancer diagnosis systems including biopsy, computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET)-CT, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasonography, etc., require expensive and complicated equipment with highly trained human resources. Global medical and scientific communities have thus made numerous efforts on developing effective but rapid disease management system via introducing a wide spectrum of point-of-care medical diagnosis devices. Among them, a lateral flow immunoassay strip technique has gained a great attention due to many advantages such as cost-effectiveness, short inspection time, and user friendly accessibility. In this mini-review, we will highlight recent research trend on the development of colorimetry based LFIA strips for cancer diagnosis and discuss the future research direction and potential applications.

For metal forming analysis, upper-bound solution is a practical method because the solution is overestimated. However it is not easy to determine the stresses on dies by using upper-bound solution. In this study, new scheme to calculate the stresses on dies based on upper bound solution is proposed. In the velocity fields, imaginary velocity is adapted to analyze the normal pressure on die surfaces. To verify the proposed scheme. plane strain drawing has been considered. The stresses on dies obtained by the proposed scheme are compared with the results of rigid plastic FEM and the experimental results. In the experiments, pressure film is used to measure the normal pressure on dies.

This paper is concerned with the theoretical and experimental study on the force control of a miniature robotic finger that grasps an object at three other positions with the fingertip. The artificial finger is a uniform flexible cantilever beam equipped with a distributed set of compact grasping force sensors. Control action is applied by a piezoceramic bimorph strip placed at the base of the finger. The mathematical model of the assembled electro- mechanical system is developed. The distributed sensors are described by a set of concentrated mass-spring system. The formulated equations of motion are then applied to a control problem in which the finger is commanded to grasp an object. The H$_{\infty}$-controller is introduced to drive the finger. The usefulness of the proposed control technique is verified by simulation and experiment..

We present the results of a search for photometric variable blue straggler stars(BSSs) in the globular cluster M53. Six of 151 probable BSSs are identified as variable candidates based on the robust variable star detection technique of Welch & Stetson (1993). Most variable BSS candidates appear to occupy the instability strip in the color-magnitude deagram, and they appear to have visual light amplitudes of 0.2 mag-0.3 mag. Further observations are required, however, to resolve the natrue of variabil-ity between pulsating stars and eclipsing binaries for these variable BSS candidates.

본 논문에서는 삼각형 메쉬(triangular mesh)로 이루어진 3차원 모델의 연결 정보(connectivity data)와 형상 정보(geometry data)를 삼각형 팬(triangle fan) 구조에 기반하여 효율적으로 압축하는 부호화 기법을 제안한다. 첫째로, 연결 정보의 무손실 부호화로 꼭지점 차수 왜곡(vertex degree warping) 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 알고리듬이 연결 정보와 형상 정보를 분리하여 부호화하는데 반해 제안하는 알고리듬은 연결 정보를 부호화하는데 형상 정보를 이용하여 압축 효율을 높인다. 둘째로, 형상 정보를 압축하기 위해 이중 평행사변형 예측(dual parallelogram prediction) 기법을 제안한다. 삼각형 팬 구조를 이용함으로써 기존의 삼각형 스트립(triangle strip) 기반의 알고리듬보다 정확한 형상 예측이 가능하고, 예측 오차가 작아지게 된다. 다양한 3차원 메쉬 모델에 대한 모의 실험을 통하여 제안하는 알고리듬이 기존의 알고리듬보다 우수한 압축 성능을 나타냄을 확인하다.

An efficient measurement methodology is proposed to construct the scattering parameters of a multi-port device using a four-port vector network analyzer (VNA) without the external un-terminated ports. By using the four-port VNA, the reflected waves from the un-terminated ports could be minimized. The proposed method significantly enhances the accuracy of the S-parameters with less number of measurements compared to the results of classical renormalization technique which uses two-port VNA. The proposed method is validated from the measured data with the coupled 8-port micro-strip lines.

The up-to-date fatigue strength assessment system for ship structures was developed based on the spectral analysis method and numerical calculation for a membrane type LNG carrier was carried out to verify the effectiveness of the developed system. The wave induced loads acting on the ship's hull were calculated based on strip theory. And introducing the concept of influence factor and 3-D fine mesh structural analysis, direct calculation of long-term distribution of wave induced stress components was realized. Using the derived long term distribution of stress components and Miner-Parmgren's linear damage accumulation rule, fatigue strength of structural components were investigated.

In this paper, a meander-line chip antenna with stacked layer is suggested, designed and fabricated employing the LTCC(Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic) fabrication techniques. To reduce the antenna chip size, the meander-line antenna strip is distributed over three layer. Layers one interconnected using via holes. A 2.4 GHz chip antenna with size of $3.75{\times}7.9{\times}1.0 mm^3$ is designed and fabricated using the LTCC technique. Measurements of the fabricated antenna show 160 MHz bandwidth and 3.75 dBi maximum gain. The Measured reflection coefficient and radiation patterns agree well with the prediction by electromagnetic simulation.

In this papers, an S-band oscillator of the low phase noise property using a miniaturized micro-strip hairpin shaped ring resonator is presented The substrate has a dielectric constant $\epsilon_\gamma$＝3.5, a thickness h＝0.508 mm, and loss tangent $tan\delta$＝0.002. A designed and fabricated oscillator shows low phase noise performance of 99. 71 dBc/Hz at 100 KHz offset frequency and of output power 19.584 dBm at center frequency 2.450 GHz. This circuit was fabricated with hybrid technique, but can be fully compatible with the MMIC due to its entirely planar structure.
