The purpose of this paper is to review relationship between spatial characteristics of compact city and urban sustainabiliy from system dynamics perspective using causal loop analysis. It has been argued that spatial characteristics of compact city, high population density and mixed land use, are positively related to urban sustainability. However, research results that are not consistent with pros of compact city argument have been accumulated too. It is especially true when spatial characteristics of compact city are examined with regard to each dimension of sustainablility: economic, social, and environmental sustainability. Reviewing each dimension of sustainability with regard to spatial characteristics based on causal loop analysis, this paper provides more clear understanding on relationship between compact city and sustainability. Also this paper provides a base for system dynamics simulation for future study.

In this letter, we propose a compact CORDIC processor for implementation of carrier frequency synchronization block in an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) system. The compact CORDIC processor is proposed by using inherenct properties of an OFDM system for estimation and compensation of carrier frequency offset, and is composed of a compact CORDIC preprocessor and a compact CORDIC processor. The compact CORDIC preprocessor plays a role of normalizing input signal efficiently, and the compact CORDIC processor is proposed to perform the vectoring mode and rotational mode jointly in CORDIC operation for carrier frequency synchronization. It is shown by FPGA implementation that the proposed compact CORDIC processor can achieve better performance with a significantly reduced hardware complexity than the conventional CORDIC approach.

The implementation of the compact gearless elevator system with Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor is presented. For the purpose of the voltage suppression in the motor input side, the LRC filter is used. The automatic encoder alignment algorithm with rotor pole position is developed, and it is available in the full range of the load. The implemented system makes 11% energy savings comparing the system with the induction motor.

In this study, the characteristics of the hydraulic control system with bleed-off center type of a compact excavator were analyzed using developed analysis program. From the parametric analysis, the effects of each factor were revealed. Through the simulation with varying parameters, the system parameter effects on the controllable region and the pump pressure and load pressure variations were studied. The results were compared with the experimental ones. The results and discussions of the present paper could aid in the performance improvement of a hydraulic control system of a compact excavator.

Nuclear marine propulsion has been emerging as a next generation carbon-free power source, for which proper passive residual heat removal systems (PRHRSs) are needed for long-term safety. In particular, the characteristics of unlimited operation time and compact design are crucial in maritime applications due to the difficulties of safety aids and limited space. Accordingly, a compact and long-term-operable PRHRS has been proposed with the key design concept of using both air cooling and seawater cooling in tandem. To confirm its feasibility, this study conducted system design and a transient analysis in an accident scenario. Design results indicate that seawater cooling can considerably reduce the overall system size, and thus the compact and long-term-operable PRHRS can be realized. Regarding the transient analysis, the Multi-dimensional Analysis of Reactor Safety (MARS-KS) code was used to analyze the system behavior under a station blackout condition. Results show that the proposed design can satisfy the design requirements with a sufficient margin: the coolant temperature reached the safe shutdown condition within 36 h, and the maximum cooling rate did not exceed 40 ℃/h. Lastly, it was assessed that both air cooling and seawater cooling are necessary for achieving long-term operation and compact design.

This paper presents a controller implementation using model based controller design programs-System Identification Toolkit, Control Design Toolkit, Simulation module. This method is easier and simpler than conventional controller design method. To implement speed control system of DC motor, a CompactRIO, Real-Time(RT) cntroller provided by NI(National Instruments), is used as hardware equipment. Firstly transfer function of DC motor drive system, which was a control target plant, can be acquired through System Identification Toolkit by using test input signal applied to motor and output signal from motor. And designing of pole-zero compensator satisfying desired control response performance through Control Design Toolkit, designed speed control response can be tested through Simulation Module. Finally LabVIEW program is converted to real-time program and downloaded to CompactRIO real-time controller Through experimental results to real DC motor drive system, designed speed control response is compared to simulation results.

A compact electron cyclotron resonance(ECR) plasma system composed of a microwave generator and a magnet coil was fabricated. A Langmuir single probe was used to investigate the plasma characteristics of the system through I-V measurements. The performance of the compact ECR plasma system was tested for the case of silicon etching reaction with $CF_{4}/O_{2}$(30%) mixed gas. Electron density and etch rate increased to maximum values and then decreased with increasing argon gas pressure, but electron temperature changed in the opposite way. The electron density and the electron temperature of argon gas plasma were 0.85${\times}~5.5{\times}10^{10}cm^{-3}$ and 4.5~6.0 eV, respectively, in the pressure range from $3{\times}10^{4}$ to 0.05Torr. The etch rate reached a maximum value at the position of 2.5cm from the bottom of plasma cavity. Etch rate uniformity was $\pm$6% across 6cm wafer. Anisotropic index was 0.75 at 1.5${\times}10^{-4}$Torr.

In this paper, thermal stabilization design of a new concept compact machining center has been investigated. A new concept machining center adopted a new X-axis as a NC rotary table. A New concept compact machining center is designed that spindle speed, feed rate and NC Rotary table speed are 12,000rpm, 60m/min and 110rpm each. The analysis is carried out by using FEM simulation Solidworks, CATIA and ANSYS. This paper is focused on the thermal deformation according to temperature distribution of a spindle system and feed drive system. Heat transfer analysis is performed according to heat source and atmosphere contact parts. As a result, this compact machining center is designed as a thermally stable structure.

In this paper, we developed the compact Doppler radar using the compact dual-circularly polarized antenna for medical application. The operating frequency is 2.47 GHz for considering ISM band. In order to decrease the size of the entire system, we designed the compact antenna and located the circuit board at the back of the antenna. The simulation of the proposed antenna was performed by the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. The total volume of the proposed system is $65{\times}45{\times}6mm^3$ including the antenna. From the experiment, the developed bio-radar could be used to support the device for medical applications.
