The Ieodo Ocean Research Station (IORS) lies between the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) boundaries of Korea, Japan, and China. The geographical positioning of the IORS makes it ideal for monitoring ships in the area. In this study, we introduce ship monitoring results by Automatic Identification System (AIS) and the Broadband 3G^TM radar, which has been developed for use in small ships using the Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave (FMCW) technique. AIS and FMCW radar data were collected at IORS from November 23th to 30th, 2013. The acquired FMCW radar data was converted to 2-D binary image format over pre-processing, including the internal and external noise filtering. The ship positions detected by FMCW radar images were passed into a tracking algorithm. We then compared the detection and tracking results from FMCW radar with AIS information and found that they were relatively well matched. Tracking performance is especially good when ships are across from each other. The results also show good monitoring capability for small fishing ships, even those not equipped with AIS or with a dysfunctional AIS.

We propose a method to synthesize a color non-hogel-based computer-generated-hologram (CGH) from light field data of a three-dimensional scene with a hologram pixel pitch shared for all color channels. The non-hogel-based CGH technique generates a continuous wavefront with arbitrary carrier wave from given light field data by interpreting the ray angle in the light field to the spatial frequency of the plane wavefront. The relation between ray angle and spatial frequency is, however, dependent on the wavelength, which leads to different spatial frequency sampling grid in the light field data, resulting in color aberrations in the hologram reconstruction. The proposed method sets a hologram pixel pitch common to all color channels such that the smallest blue diffraction angle covers the field of view of the light field. Then a spatial frequency sampling grid common to all color channels is established by interpolating the light field with the spatial frequency range of the blue wavelength and the sampling interval of the red wavelength. The common hologram pixel pitch and light field spatial frequency sampling grid ensure the synthesis of a color hologram without any color aberrations in the hologram reconstructions, or any loss of information contained in the light field. The proposed method is successfully verified using color light field data of various test or natural 3D scenes.

To meet the increasing heating needs of the China Fusion Experimental Tokamak Reactor (CFETR), the output power in each Lower Hybrid Current Drive (LHCD) transmission line should be increased from 250 kW to 500 kW. Therefore, a new high-power water load must be developed for the 4.6 GHz 500 kW LHCD system. This paper aims to report the most recent research progress of the water load: aluminum nitride (AlN) ceramic is used as the media material to isolate the water and vacuum, and the radio frequency (RF) simulation results show that the return loss of the water load is less than -25dB at 4.6 GHz over a wide temperature range. Under 500 kW continuous wave (CW) operation, the maximum temperatures of the ceramic and water are separately 67 ℃ and 62 ℃, resulting in thermal deformation of the ceramic of approximately 0.003 mm. Moreover, the AlN water load was tested on the 4.6 GHz 250 kW high-power test bench and found to work well with low reflected power.

Vital signals provide essential information regarding the health status of individuals, thereby contributing to health management and medical research. Present monitoring methods, such as ECGs (Electrocardiograms) and smartwatches, demand proximity and fixed postures, which limit their applicability. To address this, Non-contact vital signal measurement methods, such as CW (Continuous-Wave) radar, have emerged as a solution. However, unwanted signal components and a stepwise processing approach lead to errors and limitations in heart rate detection. To overcome these issues, this study introduces an integrated neural network approach that combines noise removal, demodulation, and dominant-frequency detection into a unified process. The neural network employed for signal processing in this research adopts a MLP (Multi-Layer Perceptron) architecture, which analyzes the in-phase and quadrature signals collected within a specified time window, using two distinct input layers. The training of the neural network utilizes CW radar signals and reference heart rates obtained from the ECG. In the experimental evaluation, networks trained on different datasets were compared, and their performance was assessed based on loss and frequency accuracy. The proposed methodology exhibits substantial potential for achieving precise vital signals through non-contact measurements, effectively mitigating the limitations of existing methodologies.

This article presents a research study, with both laboratory and field tests, of a deep foundation in a markedly anisotropic medium. Particularly it has focused on the evaluation of the behavior of a pile, one meter in diameter, embedded in a rocky environment with difficult conditions, in the Flysch of the Spanish city of San Sebastián. To carry out the research, the site of a bridge over the Urumea River was chosen, which was supported by pre-excavated reinforced concrete piles. 4 borings were carried out, by the rotation and washing method, with continuous sampling and combined with flexible dilatometer tests. In the field, an Osterberg load test (O-cell) was performed, while in the laboratory, determinations of natural moisture, natural unit weight, uniaxial compressive strength (UCS), point load strength (PLS), compressive wave propagation velocity (V_c) and also triaxial and direct shear tests were carried out. The research results indicate the following: a) the empirical functions that correlate the UCS with the PLS are not always linear; b) for the studied Flysch it is possible to obtain empirical functions that correlate the UCS with the PLS and with the V_c; c) the bearing capacity of the studied Flysch is much greater than if it is evaluated by different load capacity theories; d) it is possible to propose an empirical function that allows evaluating the mobilized shear strength (τ_m), as a function of the UCS and the displacement relative of the pile (δ_r).

ULSI급 CMOS 소자를 개발, 제작하고 또한 그것의 전기적 특성을 정확히 분석하기 위해서는 공정 및 소자 시뮬레이터의 사용이 필수적이다. 대면적 몬테 카를로 시뮬레이션 결과가 다차원 소자 시뮬레이터의 입력으로 사용되려면 과도한 입자수의 증가로 비효율성을 띄게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 3차원 몬테 카를로 이온 주입 시뮬레이터인 TRICSI 코드를 이용하여 물리적으로 타당하며 또한 효율적으로 시뮬레이션 입자 수를 증가시켜 대면적 이온 주입시의 3차원 통계 분포의 잡음 영역을 최소화하는 방법을 제안하였다. 후속 공정인 열확산 공정이나 RTA(급속 열처리) 공정의 확산 방정식을 푸는 경우 발산을 막기 위해 몬테 카를로 시뮬레이션 결과의 통계 분포에 대한 후처리 과정으로 3차원 셀을 이용한 보간 알고리듬을 적용하였다. 시뮬레이션 수행 결과 가상 궤적 발생법(split-trajectory method)만을 사용한 것에 비해 계산 시간은 2배로 늘이지 않는 범위에서 10배 이상의 이온 입자 생성 분포를 얻을 수 있다.

Squid jigging fishery is very important in that there are about 1,000 jigging vessels more than 10 tonnage and about 5,000 ones less than 10 tonnage in Korea. But the cost of oil which is used to light fishing lamps, goes significantly up to almost one hundred million won for 50 tonnage vessels and forty million won in case of vessels less than 10 tonnage. This cost has almost taken 40% of total fishing costs. That is, the fishing business condition of squid jigging fishery is recently in the very difficult situation. As oil price increases, the business condition of the fishery gets worse and worse. Therefore it is very urgent to develop an economical fishing lamp, to solve this problem of fishery's business difficulty. This research aims at developing a fishing lamp for squid jigging fishery using the light emitting diode which has very excellent efficiency and durability. We made a water tank with 20 meters width which is a shape of raceway to research behavioral characteristics of Japanese flying squid to LED light, and made an experiment to investigate optimum wave of LED light to lure squid. The method is to establish LED lamps on both ends of water tank and to observe squid's behavior. Colors and wave lengths of LED lamps, used in experiment, are red(634nm), yellow(596nm), green(523nm), blue(454nm) and white(454nm+560nm). In experiment for attractive capability of LED lamp to squids, Japanese flying squid are highly attracted to blue lamp and white lamp. However, they are dispersed to red and yellow lamps. In addition, Japanese flying squid have moved and stayed in both dark ends of water tank. When compared intermittent lamp with continuous lamp, Japanese flying squid are highly attracted to intermittent lamp when intermittent interval is 0.25 second.

초음파 비선형성은 적층 구조물 내부의 미세크랙이나 계면 들뜸을 검출하기 위한 수단으로 주목받고 있다. 비선형 초음파의 특징적인 현상은 전파 과정중에 고조파가 발생되는 것이다. 그러므로 비선형성의 정량화를 위해서는 수신된 초음파 신호에 포함된 고조파 성분의 검출이 중요하며, 일반적으로 2차 조화 성분과 기본 주파수 성분의 진폭비가 비선형 파라미터로 이용되고 있다. 그러나 이 비선형 파라미터를 정확하게 추정할 수 있는 방법이 확립되어 있지 않기 때문에 현재까지는 현장적용에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 본 연구에서는 초음파 비선형 파라미터의 정밀 추정을 위한 신호 처리 기술을 제안하고자 한다 이 기술은 파워 스펙트럼과 바이스펙트럼 분석에 기초하며, 특히 본 연구에서는 초음파 현미경(SAM, scanning acoustic microscope)에 사용되는 펄스형 신호로부터 고조파를 검출하는데 주목하였다. 제안된 기법의 유효성은 틈새의 크기가 접촉 중심에서 반경 방향으로 일정하게 증가하는 뉴턴링(Newton-ring)과 칩의 윗면에 국부적인 들뜸을 가진 반도체 샘플에 대한 실험을 통해 검증되었다. 결과적으로 제안된 신호처리기법에 의해 획득된 비선형 파라미터는 계면 들뜸과 좋은 상관성을 보였다.

지반진동특성의 지진공학적인 정밀측정의 일환으로 지반진동의 탁월주기와 지반진동의 거리에 따른 감쇠특성을 현장실험을 통하여 조사하였다. 이 조사는 세가지 부분의 실험을 통하여 결과를 얻었다. 첫째, 지반의 탁월주기는 고감도 디지탈 속도지진계-3축성분 속도계를 이용하는 Seismometer와 디지탈 Seismograph를 이용하여 지반과 건물에서 일정한 주기를 가진 연속적인 미소진동으로 부터 지반 및 건물진동의 탁월주기를 계측하였다. 지반에서의 탁월주기는 0.18~0.23 sec, 건물2층의 탁월주기는 0.26~0.31 sec였다. 둘째, 지반 구조조사는 디지탈 탄성파탐사기를 이용하여 굴절법을 이용한 탄성파탐사를 실시하였다. 실험장소인 한양대학교 안산캠퍼스의 지층구조는 상부층(표토층: surface layer)은 저속도층으로서 662m1s, 하부층(지반층: base ground)은 2210m/s의 P파 속도를 갖고, 주시곡선도로부터 표토층의 두께는 약 7m로 검측되었다. 이것은 7m두깨의 표토층(top soil)과 그 하부에 사질 점토성의 지반층(base ground)이 존재함을 암시한다. 셋째, Seisgun을 이용하여 인공적인 탄성파 에너지원을 만들어 지반의 진동 감쇠특성을 조사 하였다. 거리 감쇠상수(spatial attenuation conf$\ulcorner$icient) Y는 거리에 따른 진폭 을 계산하여 Z-성분(vertical)은 0.0137, X-성분(longitudinal)은 0.0025, Y-성분(transverse)은 0.0290이고 Spatial QP의 값은 각각 5.913~7.575, 32.371 ~41.452, 2.794~3.579의 값이 산출되었었다. 이 결과 다른 두성분에 비해서 종방향(z-성분, longitudinal)성분은 감쇠경향이 낮음을 알 수 있다. 그러므로 이 경우에 구조물 설계시 종방향(x-성분, longitudinal)성분에 대 한 내진설계가 고려 되어야 할 것이다.
