Normally, people think the results of engineering design project can be seen and be touched, however, it's not easy to develop such design subjects at IT related program. This matter turns into an initiative of Seoul Accord corresponding to the Washington Accord. In this paper, an engineering design project is developed from the lecture course that can hardly develop a touchable project due to the lack of expanse or the own characteristics of the course in the IT related program that follows the Washington Accord. An open-ended design project with the pre-defined design components and realistic constraints is developed for the Computer Network Design course. Each team consisted of 2 or 3 students performs the project for more than 5 weeks utilizing a software simulator, the Packet Tracer. In order to analyze the effectiveness, we have used various evaluation tools such as final presentation, peer evaluation, survey results, and mid/final exams. We concluded that the hard and soft skills of students have been improved considerably through the project.

This paper proposes an ripple reduction algorithm and analyzes the effects of offset and scale errors generated by voltage sensor while measuring grid voltage in grid-tied single-phase inverters. Generally, the grid-connected inverter needs to detect the phase angle information by measuring grid voltage for synchronization, so that the single-phase inverter can be accurately driven based on estimated phase angle information. However, offset and scale errors are inevitably generated owing to the non-linear characteristics of voltage sensor and these errors affect that the phase angle includes 1st harmonic component under using SRF-PLL(Synchronous Reference Frame - Phase Locked Loop) system for detecting grid phase angle. Also, the performance of the overall system is degraded from the distorted phase angle including the specific harmonic component. As a result, in this paper, offset and scale error due to the voltage sensor in single-phase grid connected inverter under SRF-PLL is analyzed in detail and proportional resonant controller is used to reduce the ripples caused by the offset error. Especially, the integrator output of PI(Proportional Integral) controller in SRF-PLL is selected as an input signal of the proportional resonant controller. Simulation and experiment are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of CAD (Computer Aided Design) based alpine mono-ski bucket design on disabled ski athletes' kinematic characteristics. Two national team ski athletes with LW11 disabilities (Locomotion Winter Classification) category for sit ski participated in both pre and post experiment. Both of the subjects performed 3 trials of carved turn on a ski slope under two conditions. Where, subject "A" performed pre experiment with personal bucket and post experiment with the newly developed CAD based bucket whereas, Subject "B" as control subject performed both pre and post experiment with his personal bucket. For the experiment, 24 Infrared cameras were positioned on the ski slope which covered the path of the ski turn. Also, motion capture suit with reflective markers were worn by both subjects. In the result, decrement in medial/lateral displacement of COM, anterior/posterior displacement of COM, flexion/extension angle of trunk as well as velocity losing rate of COM was observed in subject "A" when using the newly developed CAD based bucket. In contrast, no larger effect on performance was observed when using personal buckets. In conclusion, the findings obtained from the study indicated effectiveness of newly developed CAD based bucket by reducing excessive movement of hip and trunk which is an important factor to perform an effective turn.

Objectives: 이 논문의 목적은 한 사업장에서 수십 년 동안 진행된 소음감소계획이 실제적이고, 경제적인 것을 증명하고 이를 바탕으로 소음의 공학적 개선방법과 효과적인 실행을 위한 실제 작동 가능한 모델을 제시하는 것이다. Methods: 1967년도에 설립된 다국적 전자회사에서 1987년부터 2002년까지 실행된 각종 소음 감소 노력, 요소, 프로그램을 분석하고 이 기간 동안 소음감소가 어떻게 실제로 일어났는지 분석하였다. 특히 회사가 다른 여러 가지 노력을 한 후에도 실질적 효과를 기대하기 어려워 공학적 개선과 같이 도입한 Action Learning Team (ALT) 활동에 초점을 두고 개선 효과를 파악하였다. Results: 실제 소음의 감소노력은 산업안전보건법의 변화에 따라 여러 가지 형태로 실행되었다. 주된 효과는 ALT활동이 있고 나서 이루어졌는데 평균 소음 노출수준이 86.9 dBA에서 79.8 dBA로 현저히 감소하였으며 소음 지역 (85dBA 이상 )도 10개 지역에서 3개 지역으로 70% 감소하였다. ALT 활동의 결과로 나타난 7개 지역의 소음 감소를 위해 투입된 총 비용이 6,767 달러였다. ALT 활동을 처음 시작한 첫해에 소음 감소지역을 줄임으로써 이 지역의 근로자가 청력검사를 받지 않아서 초기 396명의 근로자가 청력검사를 받던 것을 활동 후 130명만 받아 266명의 근로자가 청력검사를 받지 않아도 되어 청력검사 비용이 6,650 달러 절약되었다. 따라서 장기간으로 보면 매우 비용효과적인 방법으로 증명되었다. Conclusions: 실제 소음감소가 현저히 일어나고, 비용효과적인 소음 감소가 일어나려면 기기 설비 공정담당자가 소음감소의 중요성을 잘 알고, 그 기법을 숙지하고 있어야 하며, 실제 활동을 할 수 있도록 관리자 층의 권한을 위임 받아 활동할 수 있어야 한다. 이 논문에서는 공학적 개선 태스크포스팀을 운영하여 ALT활동을 하였을 때 실제적이고, 비용효과적인 소음 감소를 증명하였다.

Knowledge is recognized as the most important asset among enterprises. Therefore, the necessity of knowledge management is ever on the increase nowadays. While many people have endeavored to develop knowledge storage, sharing and usage, knowledge creation is not sufficiently investigated for practical application, because knowledge creation is largely related to creativity and difficult to establish a systematic methodology. In order to overcome such problems, the creative knowledge creation model is proposed by using the whole brain theory and creative thinking tools. First of all, the creative knowledge creation model is based on the Nonaka's knowledge creation model integrated with the whole brain theory. The whole brain theory is then used as a standard to organize a whole brain team that is composed of members who have diverse thinking patterns. For creative thinking tools, the mandal-art and the contradiction matrix of TRIZ are used for a knowledge conversion. Each process of the creative knowledge creation model is sequentially suggested and several terms are defined. In order to verify the effectiveness of the creative knowledge creation model, the proposed model is applied to the development of a dishwasher with a new concept. According to the order of the proposed method, the model is applied twice in the cycle of spiral evolution. Three kinds of dish-washing methods have been developed using the proposed model. The results of the application are then analyzed and presented.

A mechanical stiffener has been mainly applied on a PCB to secure fatigue life of a solder joint of an electronic components in spaceborne electronics by minimizing bending displacement of the PCB. However, it causes an increase of mass and volume of the electronics. The high damping PCB implemented by multi-layered viscoelastic tapes of a previous research was effective for assuring the fatigue life of the solder joint, but it also has a limitation to decrease accommodation efficiency for the components on the PCB. In this study, we proposed high damping PCB with a multi-layered superelastic shape memory alloy stiffener for spatialminimized, light-weighted, high-integrated structure design of the electronics. To investigate the basic characteristics of the proposed PCB, a static load test, a free vibration test were performed. Then, the high damping characteristic and the design effectiveness of the PCB were validated through a random vibration test.
