The purpose of this study was to investigate the enhancement of heat transfer coefficient in double pipe fluidized bed heat exchangers. The inner tube used a smooth tube and a finned tube equipped with longitudinal fins. The heat transfer coefficients between the heated tube and fluidized bed of alumina beads were calculated as a function of fluidized velocity in various particle sizes($d_p$=0.41, 0.54, 0.65, 0.77mm) and static bed heights($H_o$=50, 100, 150, 200, 250mm). The coefficient for finned tube is higher than for smooth tube. And the maximum increasing rate is 7.8 times in smooth tube and 12.9 times in finned tube.

An analog array with a 1.2 double poly floating gate transistor has been developed with a standard CMOS fabrication process. The programming of each cell by means of an efficient control circuit eliminates the unnecessary erasing operation which has been widely used in conventional analog memories. It is seen that the path of the signal for both the programming and the reading is almost exactly the same since just one comparator supports both operations. It helps to eliminate the effects of the amplifier input-offset voltage problem on the output voltage for the read operation. In the array, there is no pass transistor isolating a cell of interest from the adjacent cells in the array. Instead of the extra transistors, one extra bias voltage, Vmid, is employed. The experimental results from the memory shows that the resolution of the memory is equivalent to the information content of at least six digital cells. Programming/erasing of each cell is achieved with no detectable disturbance of adjacent cells. Finally, the unique shape of the injector structure in a EEPROM is adopted as a cell of analog array. It reduces the programming voltage below the transistor breakdown voltage without any special fabrication process.

A basic access method using for IEEE 802.11a wireless LANs is the DCF method that is based on the CSMA/CA. But, Since IEEE 802.11 MAC layer uses original backoff algorithm (Exponential backoff method), when collision occurs, the size of contention windows increases the double size. Hence, packet transmission delay time increases and efficiency is decreased by original backoff scheme. In this paper, we have analyzed TCP packet transmission time of IEEE 802.11 MAC DCF protocol for wireless LANs using a proposed enhanced backoff algorithm. From the results, in OFDM/quadrature phase shift keying channel (QPSK), we can achieve that the transmission time in wireless channel decreases as the TCP packet size increases and based on the data collected, we can infer the correlation between TCP packet size and total message transmission time, allowing for an inference of the optimal packet size in the TCP layer.

Poly(amic acid)(PAA) was prepared by reaction of bicyclo(2,2,2)oct-7-ene-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylicdianhydride(BTDA) containing double bond for crosslinking and bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy) phenyl] sulfone(BAPS) in N,N-dimethylacetamide(DMAc). The cast film of PAA was heat-treated at different temperatures to create polyimide(PI) films. With increasing thermal crosslinking temperatures from 250 to $350^{\circ}C$, the thermo-mechanical properties, degree of crosslinking, and optical transparency of the cross-linked PI were investigated. The maximum enhancement in the thermo-mechanical properties was observed at a heat treatment condition of $350^{\circ}C$. However, the optical transparency was found to be optimal for $250^{\circ}C$ heat treatment. The degree of crosslinking in NMR was determined to be 85% to 93% with increasing annealing temperature conditions from 250 to $350^{\circ}C$.

We present various optimal grating structures which give the low threshold gain, good modulation characteristics, small effective linewidth enhancement factor, and large fabrication tolerance in complex-coupled MQW DFB lasers with absorptive gratings. To obtain these, we calculate the complex coupling coefficients using the extended additional layer method and the threshold gain including the modal loss in the absorptive grating region for rectangular and trapezoidal gratings. Based on the comparison of the results for various possible absorptive grating structures, the design guidelines are presented to obtain the low threshold gain or large fabrication tolerance. Among the grating structures studied, the double grating structure consisting of the absorptive grating on the index grating has the largest fabrication tolerance for the threshold gain and the coupling strength. The fabrication tolerance for the coupling ratio is very large for all the grating structures studied.

This paper presents new pipeline architecure for low power and high speed digital FIR filters. The proposed architecture based on retiming technique achieves enhancement on speed by sharing the input delay stage with multiplication of input data and on power combined with supply voltage scaling down technique. An 8-tap digital FIR filter for PRML disk-drive read channels adopting the proposed pipeline architecture has been designed and fabricated with 0.8${\mu}m$ CMOS double metal process technology. Measured results show that the designed FIR filter operates to 192 MHz in average and dissipates 1.22 mW/MHz at 3.3.V power supply. As a result, the proposed architecture improves speed by about 16% and reduces power dissipation by about 23% when operating at the same throughput.

This paper suggests an efficient software implementation of lightweight encryption algorithm PRESENT which supports for secret key lengths of 80-bits. Each round of PRESENT is composed of the round key addition, substitution, and permutation and is repeated 31 times. Bo Zhu suggested combined substitution and permutation for efficient operation so that encryption throughput has been increased 2.6 times than processing substitution and permutation at separate times. The scheme that suggested in this paper improved the scheme of Bo Zhu to reduce the number of operation for the round key addition, substitution, and permutation. The scheme that suggested in this paper has increased encryption throughput up to 1.6 times than the scheme of Bo Zhu but memory usage has been increased.

Mode II fracture toughness ($K_{IIc}$) of fiber reinforced concrete (FRC) has been widely investigated under various patterns of test specimen geometries. Most of these studies were focused on single type fiber reinforced concrete. There is a lack in such studies for hybrid fiber reinforced concrete. In the current study, an experimental investigation of evaluating mode II fracture toughness ($K_{IIc}$) of hybrid fiber embedded in high strength concrete matrix has been reported. Three different types of fibers; namely steel (S), glass (G), and polypropylene (PP) fibers were mixed together in four hybridization patterns (S/G), (S/PP), (G/PP), (S/G/PP) with constant cumulative volume fraction ($V_f$) of 1.5 %. The concrete matrix properties were kept the same for all hybrid FRC patterns. In an attempt to estimate a fairly accepted value of fracture toughness $K_{IIc}$, four testing geometries and loading types are employed in this investigation. Three different ratios of notch depth to specimen width (a/w) 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 were implemented in this study. Mode II fracture toughness of concrete $K_{IIc}$ was found to decrease with the increment of a/w ratio for all concretes and test geometries. Mode II fracture toughness $K_{IIc}$ was sensitive to the hybridization patterns of fiber. The (S/PP) hybridization pattern showed higher values than all other patterns, while the (S/G/PP) showed insignificant enhancement on mode II fracture toughness ($K_{IIc}$). The four point shear test set up reflected the lowest values of mode II fracture toughness $K_{IIc}$ of concrete. The non damage defect concept proved that, double edge notch prism test setup is the most reliable test to measure pure mode II of concrete.

MOEN/MO double layer which is to be used It)r the RMOS (refractory metal oxide semiconductor) gate material has been fabricated by means of low temperature reactive sputtering in N2 and Ar mixture. Good Mo2N film was obtained in the volumetric mixture of Ar:N2=95:5. The sheet resistance of the fabricated Mo7N film was about 1.20 - 1.28 ohms/square, which is about an order of magnitude lower than that of polysilicon film, and this would enable to improve the operational speed of devices fabricated with this material. When PSG (phosphorus silicate glass) was used as impurity diffusion source for the source and drain of the RMOSFET in the N2 atmosphere at about 110$0^{\circ}C$, the Mo2N was reduced to Mo resulting in much smaller sheet resistance of about 0.38 ohm/square. The threshold voltage of the RMOSFET fabricated in our experiment was - 1.5 V, and both depletion and enhancement mode RMOSFETs could be obtained.

AT-DMB system has been developed to increase data rate up to double of conventional T-DMB in same bandwidth while maintaining backward compatibility. The AT-DMB system adopted hierarchical modulation which adds BPSK signal or QPSK signal as enhanced layer to existing DQPSK signal. The enhanced layer signal should be small enough to maintain backward compatibility and to minimize the coverage loss of existing T-DMB service area. But this causes the enhanced layer signal of AT-DMB susceptible to fading effect in transmission channel. A turbo code which has powerful error correction capability is applied to the enhanced layer signal of the AT-DMB system for compensating channel distortion. We developed the prototype AT-DMB transmitter and receiver systems for performance evaluation. LAB test for analysing the effect of constellation ratio between existing base layer signal and enhancement layer signal, was conducted and the measurement results are shown with analysis comments.
