The magnetic and metallurgical characteristics of Mischmetal(MM) -Ferroboron (FeB) Permanent magnets have been investigated by X-ray diffractometer, scanning and transmission electron microscope and vibrating sample magnetometer under hot-pressing and die-upsetting process. The best magnetic properties obtained in these studies were $H_c$=5.8 kOe, $B_r$=5.0 kG with $(BH)_{max}=7.6 MGOe for melt-spun ribbons, $H_c$=3.0 kOe, $B_r$=4.6 kG with $(BH)_{max}$=2.9 MGOe for hot-pressed magnets and $H_c$=1.8 kOe, $B_r$=5.5 kG with $(BH)_{max}$=4.1 MGOe for die-upset magnets. The higher magnetic properties in die-upset magnets were resulted from alignment of the c-axis along the die-upsetting direction.

A double rectangular spiral type inductor has been fabricated by using FeTaN films. The inductor is composed of internal coils sandwiched by magnetic layers. Characteristics of inductor performance are investigated with an emphasis on planarization of magnetic films. In the absence of the planarization process, the grating topology of the upper magnetic films over the coil arrays degrades the soft magnetic properties and the inductor performance. It also induces a longitudinal magnetic anisotropy with the easy axis aligned to the magnetic flux direction. This alignment prevents the upper magnetic films from contributing to the total induction. Glass bonding is a viable method for achieving a completely planar inductor structure. The planar inductor with glass bonding shows excellent performance: inductance of 1.1 $\mu H$, Q factor of 7 (at 5 MHz), and the current capability up to 100 mA.

표준우주모형이 예측하는 천체의 성장 역사를 추적하기 위해서는 보통의 밤하늘 밝기보다 약 1000배 어두운 낮은 표면밝기(Low Surface Brightness, LSB) 우주 탐사가 필요하지만, 관측기술의 한계로 아직 LSB 우주는 거의 미지의 세계에 있다고 할 수 있다. 한국천문연구원에서는 LSB 천체 관측에 최적화된 직경 300 mm K-DRIFT Pathfinder 망원경을 개발하였다. LSB 천체는 ~28 mag/arcsec2 보다 어두운 천체로 표면밝기가 매우 낮기 때문에 망원경 내부의 미광(stray light)을 최소화하는 것이 중요하다. 이를 구현하기 위해 K-DRIFT Pathfinder 망원경에는 선형 비점수차가 제거된 비축 자유곡면 삼 반사경 형태를 적용하였다. 본 연구를 통해 가시광 영역에서 선형 비점수차가 제거된 비축 자유곡면 삼 반사 망원경의 설계, 제작 및 측정 가능성을 검증하였다. 본 발표에서는 K-DRIFT Pathfinder 망원경에 적용된 비축 자유곡면 광학면의 가공, 삼 반사 망원경의 조립 및 정렬 결과를 소개한다.

Total knee arthroplasty has become a standard procedure for advanced knee arthritis to relieve pain and improve function. Computer-assisted navigation systems have been used in total knee arthroplasty to improve the mechanical axis of the limb as well as the alignment and position of the components. A computer-assisted navigation system has the advantage of real-time feedback during surgery, such as mediolateral balance in extension and flexion gap, alignment of the lower limb, and components. On the other hand, the computer-assisted navigation system requires an additional stab wound for tracker fixation, which can increase the likelihood of superficial wound infection and stress fractures and increase the operation time and cost of surgery. The clinical efficacy of computer-assisted navigation in total knee arthroplasty is also controversial. Compared to the conventional technique, computer navigation improves the accuracy of the postoperative mechanical axis within outliers of $3^{\circ}$ varus or $3^{\circ}$ valgus. This paper reviews the surgical technique, pitfalls, clinical and radiological outcomes, useful clinical cases, and future perspectives in computer-assisted navigation total knee arthroplasty.

According to "A guide Book to Highway Design", most road elements are chosen based on a certain design speed in order to ensure obtaining safe and smooth traffic operating. However, road safety in practical way is corelative to not only all element of roads but also road shape, for example, between straight line and curves line and between curved lines. Also, it is relates to alignments such as horizontal alignment, vertical alignment, and cross section. That is, the practical road design should be examined in both sides of 3 dimension and consecutiveness as the practical road is a 3-dimensional successive object. The paper presents a concept for acceleration to evaluate consistency of road considering actual road shape on 3-dimension. Acceleration of vehicle is influential to road consistency based on running state of vehicle and state of drivers. Especially, the magnitude of acceleration is a quite influential element to drivers. Based on above, the acceleration on each point 3-D road can be calculated and then displacement can be done. Computation of acceleration means total calculation on each axis.

The Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI) and the Department of Astronomy at the University of Texas at Austin (UT) are developing a near infrared wide-band high resolution spectrograph, IGRINS (Immersion Grating Infrared Spectrograph). The white-pupil design of the instrument optics uses 7 cryogenic mirrors including 3 aspherical off-axis collimators and 4 flat fold mirrors. Two of the 3 collimators are H- and K-band pupil transfer mirrors and they are designed as compensators for the system alignment in each channel. Therefore, their mount design will be one of the most sensitive parts in the IGRINS optomechanical system. The other flat fold mirrors are designed within the limited area. Each of those includes the features of 3 axial hard points and 2 radial hard points with one spring plunger in order for the proper deflection of the mirror. The design work will include the computer-aided 3D modeling and finite element analysis (FEA) to optimize the structural stability and the thermal behavior of the mount models. The mount body will also include a tip-tilt and translation adjustment mechanism to be used as the alignment compensators.

We report the design and performance analysis of an off-axis three-mirror telescope as the fore optics for a new hyperspectral sensor aboard a small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), for low-altitude coastal remote sensing. The sensor needs to have at least 4 cm of spatial resolution at an operating altitude of 500 m, $4^{\circ}$ field of view (FOV), and a signal to noise ratio (SNR) of 100 at 660 nm. For these performance requirements, the sensor's optical design has an entrance pupil diameter of 70 mm and an F-ratio of 5.0. The fore optics is a three-mirror system, including aspheric primary and secondary mirrors. The optical performance is expected to reach $1/15{\lambda}$ in RMS wavefront error and 0.75 in MTF value at 660 nm. Considering the manufacturing and assembling phase, we determined the alignment compensation due to the tertiary mirror from the sensitivity, and derived the tilt-tolerance range to be 0.17 mrad. The off-axis three-mirror telescope, which has better performance than the fore optics of other hyperspectral sensors and is fitted for a small UAV, will contribute to ocean remote-sensing research.

Accurate overlay metrology is essential to achieve high yields of semiconductor products. Overlay metrology performance is greatly affected by overlay target design and measurement method. Therefore, in order to improve the performance of the overlay target, measurement methods applicable to various targets are required. In this study, we propose a new algorithm that can measure image-based overlay. The proposed measurement algorithm can estimate the sub-pixel position by using a motion vector. The motion vector may estimate the position of the sub-pixel unit by applying a quadratic equation model through polynomial expansion using pixels in the selected region. The measurement method using the motion vector can calculate the stacking error in all directions at once, unlike the existing correlation coefficient-based measurement method that calculates the stacking error on the X-axis and the Y-axis, respectively. Therefore, more accurate overlay measurement is possible by reflecting the relationship between the X-axis and the Y-axis. However, since the amount of computation is increased compared to the existing correlation coefficient-based algorithm, more computation time may be required. The purpose of this study is not to present an algorithm improved over the existing method, but to suggest a direction for a new measurement method. Through the experimental results, it was confirmed that measurement results similar to those of the existing method could be obtained.

In this paper, we propose a new deployment test equipment that is characterized for the deployment test of single large solar panel with tape spring hinge. To perform the deployment test on ground, a device that takes gravity compensation into account should be used to create a zero gravity environment similar to that in orbit. We analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of the most commonly used deployment test equipment in the past through simple conceptual design, analysis, and tests to judge whether it is applicable to the deployment of the solar panel to be tested. A dummy frame was proposed to reduce the air drag effect during on-ground test and a self-aligning ball bearing and adjusting screws were applied to the deployment test equipment to solve the alignment problem with the gravity axis. And a horizontal bearing for radial movement applied to compensate for the change of the axis of the tape spring hinge. From these, we solved the problems of the conventional deployment test equipment by developing and verifying the new deployment test equipment characterized for the solar panel to be deployed in this paper.

The thesis is established on the basis of model tests on the central core dam. With variations in the upstream water level, the quantity of seepage in the downstream boundaries were obtained for each specific water level. Seepage alignment and equipotential lines to these occasions were also researched and measured. By making use of the resulting data from the experiment, the flow velocities and seepage quantity computed to the flow rate of each element of flownets by the Finite Element Method was compared with the values produced by experiments and approximate theoretical formula. Further to this, transitions of water level related thereto was also examined in the thesis. During the high water level, seepages shown by the experiment were larger than that of the F.E.M. Meanwhile, the in-between differences were found to be quite small during the low water level. In the flow rate of each element with which the flow-nets are constructed, flow velocities of the X and Z axis were faster on account of the variations in water level. Flow velocities of the Y axis were extremely small enough to be disregarded.
