We have developed a laser molecular beam epitaxy system for the layer-by-layer growth of oxide thin films. Using this system, we could grow and control oxide thin films of LaAlO$_3$in a molecular layer epitaxy mode on the atomically flat SrTiO$_3$ substrate with a LaAlO$_3$single crystal target. Very clear RHEED oscillations were observed during to growth of a LaAlO$_3$ film for a long period under the optimized conditions of substrate temperature at $650^{\circ}C$, oxygen pressure at 1$\times$10\ulcorner torr, and an incident laser fluence of 4.6J/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The height of mono-layer-LaAlO$_3$ film grown during one period of RHEED intensity oscillation was 3.8$\AA$.

This paper presents experimental optimization of process parameters for a newly developed SFF(Solid Freeform Fabrication) system. Two critical process parameters, layering thickness and curing period, which have a large effect on the quality of the product, are optimized through experiments. Specimens are produced using layering thicknesses of 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, and $160\;{\mu}m$ and curing periods of 0, 10, 20, and 30 minutes under the same processing conditions, i.e., build-room temperature, feed-room temperature, roller speed, laser power, scan speed, and scan spacing. The specimens are tested to compare and analyze performance indices such as thickness accuracy, flatness, stress-strain characteristics, and porosity. The experimental result indicates that layering thickness of $80{\sim}100\;{\mu}m$ and curing period of $20{\sim}30$ minutes are recommended for the developed industrial SFF system.

In this paper, a parallel operation of two single-phase GTO PWM converters is presented. The current ripples on the primary side of the transformer can be much reduced by shifting one modulation period from the other one by a half period. Also, a simple power factor control scheme is presented by which the reactive component of converter input current is controlled. Simulations and experimental results for a laboratory system confirm the validity of the purposed algorithm.

A novel dual DC-DC flyback converter with leakage-energy recycling is presented in this paper. Only an active switch is used for this converter. A pulse-width-modulation strategy is adopeted to control this switch. Two transformers are employed for the proposed converter. During the switch ON-period, the primary windings of the two transformers store energies. At the switch OFF-period, the energies stored in the primary windings of the two transformers are released to the output via the secondary windings of the two transformers. Meanwhile, the leakage energies of the two transformers can be recycled. The operating principles and steady-state analyses of the proposed converter are described in detail. A prototype circuit of the proposed converter is implemented for verifying the performances.

This paper presents an algorithm that conducts automatic memory scrubbing operated by dedicated hardwares. The proposed algorithm is designed so that it can scrub entire memory in a given scrub period, while minimally affecting the execution of flight softwares. The scrub controller is constructed in a form of state machines, which have two execution modes - normal mode and burst mode. The deadline event generator and period tick generator are designed in a separate way to support the behavior of the scrub controller. The proposed controller is implemented in VHDL code to validate its applicability. A simple version of the controller is also applied to mass memory modules used in STSAT-3.

In this paper, the Go-Back-N ARQ protocol with decoding in communication network is considered. The time delay and throughput are respectively analyzed as a function of window size and decoding time out. Packets arrive continuously at the decoder, and are stored in a buffer if the decoder is busy upon its arrival. The decoder devotes no more than a time-out period of predetermined length to the decoding of any single packet. If packet decoding is completed within that period, the packet leaves the system. Otherwise, it is retransimitted and its decoding starts anew. The time delay and throughput are obtained using recursive formula and difference equation. An appropriate time out and window size that satisfies the grade of service can be determined.

The purpose of this study was to identify that the effect of the Lumbar extensor strengthening exercise on the trunk range of motion(Lumbar extensor strengthening exercise group = 15, Control group = 15). To find out the improvement of trunk range of motion, each group was examined with Modified Modified Sch ber(MMS) measurement before and after the treatments. The result are as followed. 1. After the training period, the trunk range of motion were increased in both groups. 2. After the training period, both groups revealed no sinigificant difference on the trunk range of motion.

This work is concerned with an optimal selling rule for a large position of stock in a market. Selling a large block of stock in a short period typically depresses the market, which would result in a poor filling price. In addition, the large selling intensity makes the regime more likely to be poor state in the market. In this paper, regime switching and depressing terms associated with selling intensity are considered on a set of geometric Brownian models to capture movements of underlying asset. We also consider the liquidation strategy to sell much smaller number of shares in a long period. The goal is to maximize the overall return under state constraints. The corresponding value function with the selling strategy is shown to be a unique viscosity solution to the associated HJB equations. Optimal liquidation rules are characterized by a finite difference method. A numerical example is given to illustrate the result.

In this study, we propose a practical method to improve the clarity and the period of the beat in a Korean bell. Proper beating in vibration and sound is very important feature in Korean bell. An equivalent ring theory is applied and finite element analysis is performed to determine the condition of the asymmetry of the bell. The clearity and the period of the beat are improved by attaching a counter mass or decreasing local thickness. This paper shows that the improved the attaching a counter mass or decreasing local thickness. This paper of the beat are improved by attaching a counter mass or decreasing local thickness. This paper shows that the amount and position of the local variation for the required beat condition can be predicted by using the equivalent model, The predicted results are verified by the experiment.

This paper examines the effects of foreign direct investment (FDI) on South Asian economies' output growth, utilizing recent panel cointegration testing and estimation techniques. Annual panel data on eight SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) member countries' macroeconomic variables over the period 1960- 2013 are employed in empirical analysis. Using various heterogeneous panel cointegration and panel causality tests, a bi-directional relationship between FDI and growth is found. We find evidence for both FDI-led growth and growth-induced FDI hypotheses for the South Asian economies over the sample period. Individual member countries exhibit heterogeneity in terms of the direction or existence of causality subject to their idiosyncratic economic conditions. Among various regressors, FDI, financial development, human capital, and government consumption show the most significant positive effects on output growth. As determinants of FDI, GDP, financial development, human capital, and government consumption are found significant in the region. The bi-directional causality between FDI and growth is found robust to the inclusion of other control variables and using different estimation techniques.
