This paper discribes the analysis of the I-V characteristics of 4H-SiC DiMOSFET with single epi-layer Silicon Carbide has been around for over a century. However, only in the past two to three decades has its semiconducting properties been sufficently studied and applied, especially for high-power and high frequency devices. We present a numerical simulation-based optimization of DiMOSFET using the general-purpose device simulator MINIMIS-NT. For simulation, a loin thick drift layer with doping concentration of $5{\times}10^{15}/cm^3$ was chosen for 1000V blocking voltage design. The simulation results were used to calculate Baliga's figure of Merit (BFOM) as the criterion structure optimization and comparison.

Plasma ignition method has been applied in various fields particularly to the rocket propulsion, pyrotechnics, explosives, and to the automotive air-bag system. Ignition method for those applications should be safe and also operate reliably in hostile environments such as; electromagnetic noise, drift voltage, electrostatic background and so on. In the present study, a semiconductor bridge (SCB) plasma ignition device was fabricated and its plasma characteristics including the propagation speed of the plasma, plasma size, and plasma temperature were investigated with the aid of the visualization of micro scale plasma $(i.e.,\;\leq\;350\;{\mu}m)$, which generated from a Micro-Electro-Mechanical poly-silicon semiconductor bridge (SCB).

Low pressure inductively coupled plasma characteristics of argon and oxygen are numerically simulated for a 400 mm rectangular type system with a plasma fluid model. The results showed lower power absorption profile at the corner than a circular one in a 13.56 MHz driven 1.5 turn antenna system with a drift-diffusion and quasi-neutrality assumption. Ions controlled by electric field are more non-uniform than metastables and the power absorption profile of oxygen plasma is affected by horizontal gas flow pattern to show 25% lower power absorption at the pumping flange side. Oxygen negative ions which are generated in electron collisional dissociation of oxygen molecules was calculated as 0.1% of oxygen atoms with similar spatial profile.

In this paper, fabricated is a motion capture and attitude detection system for Head Mounted Display HMD composed of three low-price and low-grade micro gyroscopes and a micro-controller, To calculate attitude of a body, modified INS algorithm is used. Because the micro gyroscope has much bias drift error, scale factor error, and run-to-run bias error, the motion of a body can not be measured exactly if the general INS algorithm and micro gyroscopes are used. To reduce the errors, three accelerometers can be used. In this case, however, the size and power consumption become too large to use in HMD system. The modified INS algorithm use the grid map and the characteristics of the human motions.

It was confirmed that current flowing in thin films below nm increases conductivity in diffusion currents by holes rather than electric currents by electrons. ZTO thin film, which was heat treated at $150^{\circ}C$, increased electron concentration, and thus increased capacitances. However, it was found that low current movement would be difficult as the degree of movement was reduced. Therefore, it was found that diffusion currents were more advantageous than drift currents by electrons in order to allow low current to be produced in very thin films of nm class.

In this paper, a dual foot (DF)-PDR system is proposed for the fusion of integration (IA)-based PDR systems independently applied on both shoes. The horizontal positions of the two shoes estimated from each PDR system are fused based on a particle filter. The proposed method bounds the position error even if the walking time increases without an additional sensor. The distribution of particles is a non-Gaussian distribution to express the lateral error due to systematic drift. Assuming that the shoe position is the pedestrian position, the multi-modal position distribution can be fused into one using the Gaussian sum. The fused pedestrian position is used as a measurement of each particle filter so that the position error is corrected. As a result, experimental results show that position of pedestrians can be effectively estimated by using only the inertial sensors attached to both shoes.

When a ship moves in the proximity of the lateral bank, bank suction forces are generated due to bank effects. Thus, hydrodynamic forces can significantly impact the ship's maneuverability and navigation safety. In this study, model tests were performed to investigate the hydrodynamic forces exerted on a ship, especially suction forces caused by bank effects, using captive model and bank effect tests. A low-speed condition was selected in this study, because of the perilous situation as the ship moves close to the bank. The accuracy of the hydrodynamic forces exerted on the hull was verified, by comparing the results of the static drift test with the results obtained from other institutes at design speed. The straight simulation caused by bank effects was then implemented using estimated hydrodynamic coefficients.

In this study, cyclic loading tests were conducted on the precast concrete (PC) wide beam (WB)-column joints. Two beam-column joint specimens were fabricated with the arrangement and anchorage details of the reinforcing bars penetrating the beam and column as variables. Through a cyclic loading test, the lateral load-story drift ratio responses, seismic performance characteristics (e.g., ductility, overstrength factor), energy dissipation, strength and stiffness degradations of each specimen were compared and analyzed based on the various indices and the current structural codes (ACI 318-19 and ACI 374.1-05 report). In addition, the shear lag effect was confirmed through the gauge values of the PC beam, and the differences in seismic performance between the specimens were identified on that basis.

Generally, it is pointed out that a nonlinear analysis is needed to estimate accurately the water surface fluctuation and dynamic responses of a floating structure in case of large wave reflection. In this study, a frequency-domain method is applied and newly developed to analyze the nonlinear characteristics of the air-chamber floating breakwater. The air-chamber floating breakwater in this study can control well the wave transformation, motions of the structure and its natural frequency by adjusting the air depth in the chamber. Experiments are carried out to verify the numerical results. It is appeared that the mean water level is setup in the anti-node and setdown in the node, while the nonlinearity in wave profile is larger in the node than in the anti-node. Because of vertical mooring system, the sway, especially the time-independent nonlinear component, plays predominant role in the motion. On the other hand, the time-dependent component, as well as the time-independent one to the tensile force of mooring line contributes greatly, and the time averaged value presents tensional force oriented to the onshore side due drift force.

Current sensing in power semiconductors involves sensing of over-current in order to protect the device from harsh conditions. This technique is one of the most important functions in stabilizing power semiconductor device modules. The Power MOSFET is very efficient method with low power consumption, fast sensing speed and accuracy. In this paper, we have analyzed the characteristics of proposed sense FET and optimized its electrical characteristics to apply conventional 40 V power MOSFET by numerical and simulation analysis. The proposed sense FET has the n-drift doping concentration $1.5\times10^{14}\;cm^{-3}$, size of $600\;{\mu}m^2$ with $4.5\;{\Omega}$, and off-state leakage current below $50\;{\mu}A$. We offer the layout of the proposed Power MOSFET to process actually. The offerd design and optimization methods are meaningful, which the methods can be applied to the power devices having various breakdown voltages for protection.
