Flow prediction was carried out through observational survey and three dimensional multi-layered numerical diagnostic model experiment to clarify the time and spatial structure of tidal current and residual flow dominant in the sea exchange and material circulation of the waters around Geumo Islands in the southern waters of Korea. The horizontal variation of tidal current is so large that it causes asymmetric tidal mixing due to horizontal eddies and the topographical effect creating convergence and dispersion of flow direction and velocity. Due to strong tidal currents flowing northwest-southeast, counterclockwise and clockwise eddies are formed on the left and right sides of the south of Sori Island. These topographical eddies are created by horizontal turbulence and bottom friction causing nonlinear effects. Baroclinic density flows are less than 5 cm/s at coastal area in summer and the entire sea area in winter. The wind driven currents assuming summer and winter seasonal winds are also less than 5 cm/s and the current flow rate is high in winter. Density current in summer and wind driven current in winter have a relatively greater effect on the net residual flows (tidal residual current + density current + density driven current) around Geumo Islands Sea area.

This research examines performance evaluatees' opinions regarding the institutional performance evaluation systems of Government S&T Research Institutes (GRI). Research methodology is as follows: first, four perspectives of Kaplan & Norton (1992) Balanced Scorecard Model are revised into six perspectives suitable to GRI's characteristics. Second, experts classify current performance evaluation measures into the six perspectives. This enables different evaluation systems of three GRI evaluation groups to be compared under the same evaluation measures. Third, GRI's evaluatees are asked to allocate ideal weights on the performance measures. The evaluatees' weights are compared with the weights of current performance measures, and the characteristics of evaluatees' opinions about current performance evaluation systems are analyzed. Results are as follows; first, six perspectives for Korean GRIs are financial, long-term outcome, short-term outcome, strategic direction, project management, human resources perspectives. second, GRI evaluation systems put the most weights on the long- and short-term outcome perspectives and the least weights on the financial perspective. This result complies with theoretical model: in performance evaluation of GRIs, the customer perspective is the most important one while the financial perspective is the least important one. Third, evaluatees think that the long-term outcome perspective of the Basic-technology GRI group and the short-term outcome perspective of the Applied-technology GRI Group needs more weight. Fourth, it is found that the current systems have more weights on the project management and strategic direction perspectives than evaluatees think. The possible explanation of this result would be that since the measures of these perspectives are relatively easier to set up than those of other perspectives, the current systems contains larger number of measures and, accordingly more weights.

This study was performed to estimate the swimming velocity of Pacific saury (Cololabis saira) migrated offshore Funka Bay of Hokkaido using an acoustic Doppler current profiler (OceanSurveyor, RDI, 153.6kHz) established in T/S Ushio-maru of Hokkaido University, in September 27, 2003. The ADCP's doppler shift revealed as the raw data that the maximum swimming velocity was measured 163.0cm/s, and its horizontal swimming speed and direction were $72.4{\pm}24.1\;cm/s$, $160.1^{\circ}{\pm}22.3^{\circ}$ while the surrounding current speed and direction were $19.6{\pm}8.4\;cm/s$, $328.1^{\circ}{\pm}45.3^{\circ}$. To calculate the actual swimming speed of Pacific saury in each bins, comparisons for each stratified bins must be made between the mean surrounding current velocity vectors, measured for each stratified bin, and its mean swimming velocity vectors, assumed by reference (threshold > -70dB) and 5dB margin among four beams of ADCP. As a result, the actual averaged swimming velocity was 88.6cm/s and the averaged 3-D swimming velocity was 91.3cm/s using the 3-D velocity vector, respectively.

In this paper, a decimation-in-time search direction algorithm for displacement prediction of moving object is proposed. The initialization of the proposed algorithm for moving direction prediction is performed by detecting moving objects at sequential frames and by obtaining a moving angle and a moving distance. A moving direction of the moving object at current frame is obtained by applying the decimation-in-time search direction mask. The decimation-in-tine search direction mask is that the moving object is detected by thinning out frames among the sequential frames, and the moving direction of the moving object is predicted by the search mask which is decided by obtaining the moving angle of the moving object in the 8 directions. to examine the propriety of the proposed algorithm, velocities of a driving car are measured and tracked, and to evaluate the efficiency, the proposed algorithm is compared to the full search algorithm. The evaluated results show that the number of displacement search times is reduced up to 91.8$\%$ on the average in the proposed algorithm, and the processing time of the tracking is 32.1ms on the average.

This paper discusses the effects of CD type superconducting cable operation in 22.9kV multi neutral grounded distribution system during L-G fault and counterplans to power system protection. In case of using the 3-phase CD-type superconducting cable, the inductance of superconducting cable system would be decreased due to the current of shield part of superconducting cable, which is opposite direction and nearly equal value with respect to main superconductor. However, when the shield circuit system is operated in shorted state, shield current decreases faulted ground current and give effects to power system protection scheme. This study examines the phenomena of single line to ground fault case in above mentioned system using the EMTDC program and discusses the right operation method of superconducting shield.

The spin valve tunneling magnetoresistance (SV-TMR) sensor performance is analyzed using Stoner-Wohlfarth model for the detection of eddy current signals in nondestructive testing applications. The SV-TMR response in terms of the applied AC magnetic field dominantly generates the second harmonic amplitude in hard axis direction. The second harmonic eddy current signal detection using SV-TMR sensor shows higher performance than that of the coil sensor at lower frequencies. The SV-TMR sensor with high sensitivity gives a good solution to improve the low frequency performance in comparison with the inductive coil sensors. Therefore, the low frequency eddy current techniques based on SV-TMR sensors are specially useful in the detection of hidden defects, and it can be applied to detect the deeply embedded flaws or discontinuities in the conductive materials.

Two switching signal patterns are proposed to prevent short circuit of PWM ac choppers. The voltage detection method and the current detection method are proposed to execute two switching signal patterns. In the voltage detection method, the dead-time has to be inserted to the switching signals after polarity of input voltage is checked by voltage transducer at input side. In the current detection method, the direction of load current is checked by current transducer at output side, and the dead-time delay is not considered. Controlling circuit built by current detection method is simple because the dead-time delay is considered. The experimental results are presented to prevent short circuit of ac chopper safely.

In this paper, the polycrystalline silicon photodiodes utilizing vertically directed current path are investigated. The location of electrodes is considered with the grain direction and the current path. The relationships between grain boundaries and characteristics of photodiode are simulated to apply the vertically grown polycrystalline silicon to photodiodes. From the results, the vertically grown polycrystalline silicon photodiode is a potential candidate for CMOS image sensor. However, the increment of dark current related to grain boundaries should be reduced.
