In this paper, study on the mode characteristics analysis of the SH-EMAT (shear horizontal, electromagnetic acoustic transducer) waves for evaluating the thickness reduction in plates such as corrosion and friction is presented. Noncontact methods for ultrasonic wave generation and detection have been a great concern and highly demanded due to their capability of wave generation and reception on surface of high temperature or on rough surface. Mode identification of the SH-EMAT wave is carried out in an aluminum plate with thinning defects using time frequency analysis method such as wavelet transform, compared with theoretically calculated group velocity dispersion curve. The changes of various wave features such as the amplitude and the time-of-flight have been observed and the correlations with the thickness reduction have been investigated. Firstly, experiments have been conducted to confirm that it is possible to selectively generate and receive specific desired SH modes. These modes have then been analyzed to select the parameters that are sensitive to the thickness change. The results show that the mode cutoff and the time-of-flight changes are feasible as key parameters to evaluate the thickness reduction.

We calculate the energy spectra of cosmic ray (CR) protons and electrons at a plane shock with quasi-parallel magnetic fields, using time-dependent, diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) simulations, including energy losses via synchrotron emission and Inverse Compton (IC) scattering. A thermal leakage injection model and a Bohm type diffusion coefficient are adopted. The electron spectrum at the shock becomes steady after the DSA energy gains balance the synchrotron/IC losses, and it cuts off at the equilibrium momentum $p_{eq}$. In the postshock region the cutoff momentum of the electron spectrum decreases with the distance from the shock due to the energy losses and the thickness of the spatial distribution of electrons scales as $p^{-1}$. Thus the slope of the downstream integrated spectrum steepens by one power of p for $p_{br}$ < p < $p_{eq}$, where the break momentum decreases with the shock age as $p_{br}\;{\infty}\;t^{-1}$. In a CR modified shock, both the proton and electron spectrum exhibit a concave curvature and deviate from the canonical test-particle power-law, and the upstream integrated electron spectrum could dominate over the downstream integrated spectrum near the cutoff momentum. Thus the spectral shape near the cutoff of X-ray synchrotron emission could reveal a signature of nonlinear DSA.

This study examined the correlations among the Berg Balance Scale, which is a clinical tool used to evaluate balance ability, spatiotemporal parameters of gait, and falling; determined the parameters most closely related to falling; and identified a discriminatory parameter and its predictability. Thirty-four subjects aged 72 to 92 years participated in this study. Following a questionnaire survey about falling, the Berg Balance Scale and spatiotemporal parameters of gait were measured. The results revealed that the incidence of falls increased with aging and an accompanying reduction in the flexion range of motion of the hip joint. The gait characteristics of elderly people who fell easily included a slower walking speed, shorter stride, and longer stance time than other elderly. When the cutoff score was set at 45, the Berg Balance Scale was able to identify correctly those individuals who truly have experience of falling than when the cutoff score was set at 39. But when the cutoff score was set at 39, the scale's specificity identifying correctly those individuals who truly have not experience of falling was higher than at the cutoff score of 45. Therefore, the Berg Balance Scale is an appropriate screening method in a clinical setting for the early detection of elderly people at risk of falling. In conclusion, elderly people with a Berg Balance Scale score. below 45 are the most likely to fall owing to their decreased balance ability.

본 논문에서는 사용자의 개입 없이 가정환경에서 사용하는 다양한 가전기기의 대기전력을 검출하고 대기전력을 자동으로 차단하기 위한 전원 관리 시스템을 설계하였다. 시스템의 클라이언트는 클라이언트에 연결된 가전기기가 소비하는 소비전력 정보를 측정하고 무선 네트워크를 통하여 서버에게 실시간으로 전송한다. 이때 서버에서는 가전기기의 소비전력 특성을 분석하여 대기전력 사용 여부 및 대기전력 소비전력 값을 검출하도록 한다. 이렇게 검출한 대기전력 정보는 해당 가전기기 정보의 생성 및 데이터베이스를 구축에 활용되며, 이를 이용하여 사용자의 개입을 통한 설정 없이 대기전력 자동검출 및 차단 기능을 제공한다.

지진 발생시 건축물의 내부상태를 탐사하는데 있어 콘크리트 구조물의 두께, 철근의 피복깊이, 공동의 유무를 탐사하게 되고, 이것을 통해 건축물의 손상을 추정할 수 있다. 이때 콘크리트 내부를 탐사하는 방법으로 지중 탐사 레이더(ground penetrating radar)가 효과적으로 이용될 수 있다. 기존의 레이더 측정 방법에서는 콘크리트 내부를 탐사하기 위해 시간영역에 있는 데이터로 콘크리트의 유전상수를 구하고 시간을 거리로 환산하여 육안 식별에 의해서 결과를 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 콘크리트 시편을 측정한 후 측정된 데이터를 주파수 영역으로 변환하여 스펙트럼 분석과 필터링을 통한 방법으로 신호 처리하여 시간영역에서의 데이터 분석능력을 향상 시켰다. 데이터 획득을 위해 주로 사용되는 900MHz, 1GHz, 그리고 1.5㎓ 중심 주파수를 갖는 세 개의 안테나를 사용하여 철근시편을 탐사하였다. 주파수 영역에서 차단 주파수(cutoff frequency)를 1/3 옥타브에 의하여 변화시키면서 저역 통과, 고역 통과, 그리고, 대역 통과 등의 필터링을 하였고, 각각의 중심 주파수에 대한 가장 효과적인 차단 주파수를 찾으려고 했다. 차단 주파수의 범위는 최대 하위 2옥타브에서 상위 1옥타브와 최소 하위 2옥타브에서 하위 1옥타브가 적합하였고, 주파수 영역에서 필터링을 통해 콘크리트 내부 정보 분석력 향상을 위한 토대를 마련하였다.

Congestion and memory occupancy in computer system may be reduced further if new jobs are admitted only when the num-ber of jobs queued at CPU is below CPU run queue cutoff (RQ). In this paper we prove that response time of a job is invariant with respect to RQ if jobs do not communicate each other. We also demonstrate this invariance property numerically using marix-geometric methods and present an approximate method for the delay due to context switch-ing under time slicing. The approximation suggests that time slicing with constant overhead yields a throughput similar to an FCFS system without overhead.

The market competition of express package deliveries in Korea is severe because a large number of companies have entered into the market. This study thus suggests an approach to the reconfiguration of express service networks with respect to the strategy partnership of closing/keeping service centers among companies involved and the adjustments of their cutoff times. For this we propose an integer programming model and a genetic algorithm based solution procedure for allowing companies involved to maximize their incremental profit. An illustrative numerical example is presented to demonstrate the practicality and efficiency of the proposed model.

In this paper, a design of current-mode continuous-time filters for low voltage and high frequency applictions using complementary bipolar current mirror paris is presented. The proposed current-mode filters consist of simple bipolar current mirrors and capacitors and are quite suitable for monolithic integrtion. Since the design method of the proposed curent-mode filters is based on the integrator type of realization, it can be used for a wide range of applications. And the cutoff frequency of th efilters can be easily changed by the DC cntrolling current. As design examples, the 5th order butterworth filters are designed by cascade and leapfrog methods with tunable cutoff frequencies from 30MHz to 100MHz. The characteristics of the designed current mode filters are simulated and examined by SPICE using standard bipolar transistor parameters.

To investigate the curing temperature effect on the engineering properties of ground granulated blast furnace slag-cement bentonite (GGBS-CB) slurry for cutoff walls, the laboratory experiments including the setting time, unconfined compressive strength, and permeability tests were carried out. The mixing procedure for GGBS-CB slurry was as follows: (1) montmorillonite-based bentonite slurry was first fabricated and hydrated for four hours, and (2) cement or GGBS with cement was added to the bentonite slurry. The dosage range of GGBS was from 0 to 90 % of cement by mass fraction. The GGBS-CB slurry specimens were cured and stored in environmental chamber at temperature of 14±1, 21±1, 28±1℃ and humidity of 95±2% until target days. The highest average temperature of three seasons in South Korea was selected and used for the tests. The experimental results indicated that in early age (less than 28 days) of curing the engineering properties of GGBS-CB slurry were primarily affected by the curing temperature, whereas the replacement ratio of GGBS became a main factor to determine the properties of the slurry as the curing time increased.
