Automated design system of injection mold was developed in this study. Shapes of mold parts and mold base were defined according to standards of mold components and database modules of mold components were built. And then an automation program of mold design was developed by the user definition features, family table and Pro/Program of Pro/Engineer. The automatic production divided into mold base and standard parts was manipulated to manufacture parts meeting the design requirements and the selected parts were changed in size and shape to meet the design goals. The mold design was also carried out to have organic relations and be easy in case of a change to the mold part or mold base. As a result, it is possible to design the mold efficiently and conveniently modify the designed mold parts and base by using the developed automated design system in this study.

Average illuminaoce and luminance can be calculated by grarhical rrethods to a certain extent, but to calculate for a wide place, a suitable software is needed. Softwares suitable for this purpose have been already developed in foreign nations, but the appropiate softwares for domestic use have not been developed 1berefore a program is develqJed which is executable in Hangul Windows. The softwares LAPRoad, is develqJed to calculate luminaoce and illuminance distribution of road surlace, as well as average luminance and illuminance, overall uniformity, longitudinal uniformity, threshold increement, veilling luminance, and glare. And an apparatus that measures road surface reflection properties is developed. Because the road surlace reflection properties is very important in luminance calculation, then concrete road surlace reflection properties were measered.asered.

TFD is a transcription factor database which consists of short functional DNA sequences called as signals and their references. SIGNAL SCAN, developed by Dan S. Prestridge, is used to determine what signals of TFD may exist in a DNA sequence. This program searches TFD database by using a simple algorithm for character string comparison. We developed TFSCAN that aims at searching for signals in an input DNA sequence more efficently than SIGNAL SCAN. Our algorithms consist of two parts, one constructs an automata by scanning sequences of rFD, the other searches for signals through this automata. Searching for signal-related references is radically improved in time by using an indexing method. Usage of TFSCAN is very simple and its output is obvious. We developed and installed a TFSCAN input form and a CGI program in GINet Web server, to use TFSCAN. The algorithm applying automata showed drastical results in improvement of computing time. This approach may apply to recognizing several biological patterns. We have been developing our algorithm to optimize the automata and to search more sensitively for signals.

This paper describes the recognition method of small-obstacles using a camera for a mobile robot in indoor environment. The technique of image processing using a camera has been widely used for an automaton of industrial system, an inspection of inferior goods, a lookout of an invader, and a vision sensor of intelligent robot. Mobile robot could meet small-obstacles such as a small plastic bottle of about 0.5 l in quantity, a small box of $7{\times}7{\times}7cm^3$ in volume, and so on in its designated path, and could be disturbed by them in the locomotion of a mobile robot. So, it is necessary to research on the recognition of small-obstacles using a camera and program. In this paper, 2-D image processing algorism and method fur recognition of small-obstacles using a camera for a mobile robot in indoor environment was developed. The characteristic test of the developed program to confirm the recognition of small-obstacles was performed. It is shown that the developed program could judge the size and the position of small-obstacles accurately.

Optimization of the aircraft panel assembly constructed by skin and stringers is investigated. For the design of panel assembly of the aircraft structure, it is necessary to determine the best shape of the stringer which accomplishes lowest weight under the condition of no instability. A panel assembly can fail in a variety of instability modes under compression. Overall modes of flexure or torsion can occur and these can interact in a combined flexural/torsion mode. Flexure and torsion can occur symmetrically or anti-symmetrically. Local instabilities can also occur. The local instabilities considered in this paper are buckling of the free and attached flanges, the stiffener web and the inter-rivet buckling. A program is developed to find out critical load for each instability mode at the specific stringer shape. Based on the developed program, optimization is performed to find optimum stringer shape. The developed instability analysis program is not adequate for sensitivity analysis, therefore RSM (Response Surface Method) is utilized instead to model weight and instability constraints. Since the problem has many local minimum, Genetic algorithm is utilized to find global optimum.

In order to find out the influences of the coefficient of permeability and the coefficient of consolidation on the consolidation of nonhomogeneous soils, self-developed program was used. For the purpose of analysis, nonhomogeneous soils of two layers which have various values of coefficient of permeability and coefficient of consolidation were assumed and analyzed by the developed program. According to the results obtained by the analysis, coefficient of consolidation has great effect on the distribution of excess pore water pressure and the consolidation settlement whereas coefficient of permeability has little effect on the characteristics of consolidation of nonhomogeneous soils.

In this paper, an approach developed by the Finnish nuclear waste management organization, Posiva, for the construction license of a geological repository was reviewed. Furthermore, a computer program based on the approach was developed. By using the computer program, the lifetime of a copper disposal canister, which was a key engineered barrier of the geological repository, was predicted under the KAERI Underground Research Tunnel (KURT) geologic conditions. The computer program was developed considering the mass transport of corroding agents, such as oxygen and sulfide, through the buffer and backfill. Shortly after the closure of the repository, the corrosion depths of a copper canister due to oxygen in the pores of the buffer and backfill were calculated. Additionally, the long-term corrosion of a copper canister due to sulfide was analyzed in two cases: intact buffer and eroded buffer. Under various conditions of the engineered barrier, the corrosion lifetimes of the copper canister due to sulfide significantly exceeded one million years. Finally, this study shows that it is necessary to carefully characterize the transmissivity of rock and sulfide concentration during site characterization to accurately predict the canister lifetime.

Scientific creativity is necessary for all ordinary students in ordinary school settings. In this study, a practical format for teaching scientific creativity is suggested, and sample teaching materials based on this format are developed. To facilitate the practical use of the teaching materials in ordinary schools, the model of IS3CA(Iterative Small Scale Scientific Creative Activity) was proposed. Using this format and the proposed teaching materials, a brief in-service program was developed and implemented. Here, the aim is to improve teachers' actual professional ability to develop their own teaching materials rather than just using the pre-developed teaching materials provided by the researcher. Positive responses about the in-service program were collected from the teachers, and the results also showed that the development of teaching materials by teachers was possible. Therefore, I expect that the teaching of scientific creativity by ordinary teachers is possible for ordinary students in ordinary school contexts. Finally, based on the results and experiences of this study, a curriculum for teaching scientific creativity is suggested.

A placement program in LSI layout is developed and the results of test are discussed in this paper. In order to achieve 100% wiring, this paper introduces, as a virtual routing method, an algorithm which is close to the real routing. This algorithm is reflected to calculate the channel density. An object function is introduced to achieve minimization of total wire length, number of cuts, and maximum channel density simultaneously. The time complexity for the proposed virtual routing algorithm is O(n2). The time required for the algorithm is very short. This algorithm represents the routing state which is close to minimum wire length. So this algorithm is very proper to the application of placement problem. An auto-placement program is developed by the use of this algorithm. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is shown in the test of the developed program.

It would be very useful if the dynamic response of a vehicle over rough ground could be predicted at the early design stage. This became more promising with the recent progress in computer hardware and software technologies. In this study, a model of a passenger car has been developed for the analysis of its dynamic response. This model can be easily used for the other passenger cars with little modification. This passenger car was modeled to be composed of lumped masses, rigid bodies, and the suspension systems with nonlinear properties. Even though a commercial dynamic simulation program, ADAMS, was used in this study, the developed model is valid for any other simulation program. Finally, the validity of the developed model and the analysis result was verified by an experiment.
