In this paper, we proposed an fiber-optic transceivers based on the analog optical transmission techniques of incorporating the SCM (subcarrier multiplexing) and WDM (wavelength-division multiplexing ) method, which can be used to transmission of IMT-2000 and PCS wireless frequency band and analyzed overall those parameters related with fabrication. Especially in the impedance matching network between RF signal and LD, we proposed the method of deriving optimal performance using simulation techniques. In the frequency band of 1.7GHz∼2.25GHz, experimental data for the gain flatness and the noise floor of the optical link were also presented $\pm$1.5dB and -130dBm respectively when the link Rain was 0dB.

This paper presents the three-dimensional (3-D) study of the natural vibration of cantilevered laminated composite plates. The Ritz method is used to obtain stationary values of the associated Lagrangian functional with displacements approximated by mathematically complete polynomials satisfying the boundary conditions at the clamped edge exactly. The accuracy of the 3-D model is established through a convergence study of non-dimensional frequencies followed by a comparison of the converged 3-D solutions with analytical and experimental findings in the existing literature. A wide scope of 3-D frequency results explain the influence of a number of geometrical and material parameters for cantilevered laminated plates, namely aspect ratio (a/b), width-to-thickness ratio (a/h), orthotropy of material, number of plies (NP), fiber orientation angle(θ), and stacking sequence.

In the attitude and orbit control subsystem design, the moment of inertia of the satellite is the major contributor to be considered. Satellites equipped with large solar arrays need to measure the moment of inertia accurately to avoid the interference of the thruster actuation period with its flexible mode. In this paper, the in-orbit tests of COMS to measure the moment of inertia are described. Then, the differences between the measured through in-orbit test and the predicted are compared. Finally, it is verified that the differences are below uncertainty bounds considered in the critical design of COMS attitude and orbit control subsystem.

A hydraulic test on a filament wound case of Kick-Motor was conducted to evaluate the structural stiffness degradation and to confirm the burst performance. Failure criteria have been defined with bursting above 150% of MEOP(Maximum Expected Operation Pressure) and failure in the cylinder. The analysis result showed that filament fiber in the cylinder should be broken at about 2088psig. From a hydraulic test it has been verified that composite case meets the failure requirements, and that the stiffness does not decrease even after a year since the manufacturing.

Nowadays CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) became widely used materials for the strengthening and retrofitting of structures. Many experimental and analytical studies are encountered at literature about strengthening beams by using this kind of materials against static loads and cyclic loads such as earthquake or wind loading for investigating their behavior. But authors did not found any study about strengthening of RC beams by using CFRP against low velocity impact and investigating their behavior. For these reasons an experimental study is conducted on totally ten strengthened RC beams. Impact loading is applied on to specimens by using an impact loading system that is designed by authors. Investigated parameters were concrete compression strength and drop height. Two different sets of specimens with different concrete compression strength tested under the impact loading that are applied by dropping constant weight hammer from five different heights. The acceleration arises from the impact loading is measured against time. The change of velocity, displacement and energy are calculated for all specimens. The failure modes of the specimens with normal and high concrete compression strength are observed under the loading of constant weight impact hammer that are dropped from different heights. Impact behaviors of beams are positively affected from the strengthening with CFRP. Measured accelerations, the number of drops up to failure and dissipated energy are increased. Finite element analysis that are made by using ABAQUS software is used for the simulation of experiments, and model gave compatible results with experiments.

The possibility of improving amplification characteristics and lowering the melting point of bismuth-doped aluminosilicate glass as a new amplification material, which has broadband near-infrared emission at 1300 nm regions, was investigated. Spectroscopic analysis of bismuth-doped aluminosilicate glass shows that the addition of an alkali metal oxide, $Li_{2}O$ increases FWHM of fluorescence spectrum but decreases fluorescence intensity, while $GeO_{2}$ composition increases both FWHM of fluorescence spectrum and fluorescence intensity. Also, excellent optical amplification gain characteristics in a $GeO_{2}$-added sample were observed.

In this study, molding shrinkage of PPS resin was investigated. Two types of PPS resins with differing glass fiber and calcium carbonate content were used for this purpose. To observe mold shrinkage, molding conditions based on injection temperature, injection speed, and the position of the cushion were selected. Circular and rectangular specimens were used for the study model. Injection molding simulation was performed to predict the filling pattern and mold shrinkage, and the simulation results were compared with the experimental conclusions. It was observed that the mold shrinkage showed the highest shrinkage (distributed from 0.05% to 0.32%) dependence on the injection temperature, and the lowest shrinkage (distributed from 0.05% to 0.31%) dependence on the injection speed. The role of the position of the cushion in mold shrinkage was difficult to observe. The results of the simulation mostly agreed with the experimental results; however, for some molding conditions, the mold shrinkage in the simulation was overestimated as compared to that in the experiment.

This paper presents the ballistic armor performance examination and thickness estimation for the latest naval ship structure materials in the Republic of Korea. Up to date, research regarding methods of ballistic experiments establishing database on the latest hull structure materials as well as a precise method of estimating required thickness of armor against specific projectiles have been rarely researched. In order to build a database and estimate proper thicknesses of structure materials, this study used four structure materials that have been widely applied in naval ships such as AH36 steel, AL5083, AL5086, and Fiber Reinforced Plastics (FRP). A $7.62{\times}39mm$ mild steel core bullet normally fired by AK-47 gun was considered as a threat due to its representativeness. Tate and Alekseevskii's penetration algorithm was also used to calculate a correction factor (${\alpha}$) and then estimate the armor thickness of naval ship hull structure materials with a given impact velocity. Through live fire experiments, the proposed method performance difference was measured to be 0.6% in AH36, 0.4% in AL5083, 0.0% in AL5086, and 8.0% in FRP compared with the experiment results.

A method is described for measuring clinically relevant levels of glucose in a pH 7.4 phosphate buffer by nearinfrared (NIR) absorption spectroscopy. Three types of NIR spectrometer, dispersive type, photo-diode array (PDA) type, and fourier transform (FT) type spectrometer were used and the performance was compared. Spectra were collected with a cuvette cell or quartz liquid fiber of 1 mm or 2 mm optical pathlength as transmittance method. Glucose absorption band appeared at second overtone, first overtone, and combination region for all systems. By use of the multivariate technigue of partial least squares (PLS) regression, glucose concentrations can be determined with a 16, 44, and 9.1 mg/d l standard error of prediction for dispersive type, photo-diode array type, and fourier transform type system, respectively. Sensitivity of spectrometer was evaluated by absorbance for the difference of 10 mg/d l glucose. Three absorption bands, second overtone, first overtone, and combination region were suited to three types systems, dispersive type, photo-diode array type, and fourier transform type systems, respectively. This investigation showed that three types NIR spectrometer were proper method for identification and quantitative analysis of glucose and possible for noninvasive blood glucose monitoring.

The purpose of this research is to review testing principle, testing design and experimental results of the four dynamic moisture movement testers. The research analyzes Moisture Manager Tester (MMT), Alambeta Instrument, Dynamic Surface Moisture Movement Tester, and Gravimetric Absorbent Testing Method based on American Society for Testing and Material (ASTM) E 96 which is an international standard testing method. Although many of researches use ASTM E 96 to measure moisture movement on a fabric, it has several weaknesses, such as long experimental time and a physical change of sample by a holder of the frame. Hence, lots of researchers have studied and developed the new measurement systems measuring moisture management on a fabric or garment and ultimately mimic heat energy and perspiration created by the human body. These moisture management systems use a variety of parameters, such as electricity, color, and sensor to measure their movement in the fabric. Through comparison with the existing tester (ASTM E 96), the research recognizes the strength and weakness in the dynamic moisture movement testers.
