In this paper, the dispersion characteristics of elastic waves propagation in sandwich nano-beams with functionally graded (FG) face-sheets reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is investigated based on various high order shear deformation beam theories (HOSDBTs) as well as nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT). In order to align CNTs as symmetric and asymmetric in top and bottom face-sheets with respect to neutral geometric axis of the sandwich nano-beam, various patterns are employed in this analysis. The sandwich nano-beam resting on Pasternak foundation is subjected to thermal, magnetic and electrical fields. In order to involve small scale parameter in governing equations, the NSGT is employed for this analysis. The governing equations of motion are derived using Hamilton's principle based on various HSDBTs. Then the governing equations are solved using analytical method. A detailed parametric study is conducted to study the effects of length scale parameter, different HSDBTs, the nonlocal parameter, various aligning of CNTs in thickness direction of face-sheets, different volume fraction of CNTs, foundation stiffness, applied voltage, magnetic intensity field and temperature change on the wave propagation characteristics of sandwich nano-beam. Also cut-off frequency and phase velocity are investigated in detail. According to results obtained, UU and VA patterns have the same cut-off frequency value but AV pattern has the lower value with respect to them.

The precise orbit determination (POD) of low earth orbiter (LEO) has complied with its required positioning accuracy by the double-differencing of observations between International GNSS Service (IGS) and LEO to eliminate the common clock error of the global positioning system (GPS) satellites and receiver. Using this method, we also have achieved the 1 m positioning accuracy of Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT)-2. However double-differencing POD has huge load of processing the global network of lots of ground stations because LEO turns around the Earth with rapid velocity. And both the centimeter accuracy and the near real time (NRT) processing have been needed in the LEO POD applications--atmospheric sounding or urgent image processing--as well as the surveying. An alternative to differential GPS for high accuracy NRT POD is precise point positioning (PPP) to use measurements from one satellite receiver only, to replace the broadcast navigation message with precise post processed values from IGS, and to have phase measurements of dual frequency GPS receiver. PPP can obtain positioning accuracy comparable to that of differential positioning. KOMPSAT-5 has a precise dual frequency GPS flight receiver (integrated GPS and occultation receiver, IGOR) to satisfy the accuracy requirements of 20 cm positioning accuracy for highly precise synthetic aperture radar image processing and to collect GPS radio occultation measurements for atmospheric sounding. In this paper we obtained about 3-5 cm positioning accuracies using the real GPS data of the Gravity Recover and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites loaded the Blackjack receiver, a predecessor of IGOR. And it is important to reduce the latency of orbit determination processing in the NRT POD. This latency is determined as the volume of GPS measurements. Thus changing the sampling intervals, we show their latency to able to reduce without the precision degradation as the assessment of their precision.

This paper describes distribution characteristics of switching surge voltage in stator windings of induction motor driven by IGBT PWM inverter. To analyze the voltage distribution between the turns and coils of stator winding, equivalent circuit model of induction motor including cable was proposed and high frequency parameter is computed by using finite-element method (FEM). From the electro-magnetic transient program (EMTP) simulation of the whole system for induction motor, feeder cable, and PWM inverter, the variable effect on rising time of the inverter, cable length, and switching frequency on the voltage distribution is also presented. In order to experiment, an induction motor, 380[V], 50[HP], with taps from one phase are built to consider the voltage distribution so that these results can be helpful when filter was designed to remove high dv/dt.

In this paper, an efficient proposed CDR(Clock and Data Recovery Circuits) using 1/4-rate clock based on dual-interpolator is proposed. The CDR is aimed to overcome problems that using multi-phase clock to decrease the clock generator frequency causes side effects such as the increased power dissipation and hardware complexity, especially when the number of channels is high. To solve these problems, each recovery part generates needed additional clocks using only inverters, but not flip-flops while maintaining the number of clocks supplied from a clock generator the same as 1/2-rate clock method. Thus, the reduction of a clock generator frequency using 1/4-rate clocking helps relax the speed limitation and power dissipation when higher data rate transfer is demanded.

A sub-${\mu}$W CMOS Wien-Bridge oscillator for ultra low power (ULP) radio applications is presented. The Wien-Bridge oscillator is based on an non-inverting opamp amplifier with a closed-loop gain $1+R_2/R_1$ as a means of providing necessary loop gain. An additional RC network provides appropriate phase shift for satisfying the Barkhausen oscillation condition at the given frequency of 1/($2{\pi}RC$). In this design, we propose a novel loop gain control method based on a variable capacitor network instead of a rather conventional variable resistor network. Implemented in $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS, the oscillator consumes only 560 nA at the oscillation frequency of 22 kHz.

As the exact geographical information has been nowadays required for effective developing and using of national land, in the country, there has been interested in using of GPS, and its practical use is expected. Various kinds of fundamental research for practical use of GPS is being accomplished. In this study, a test was carried out over 9 stations with baseline of the range of 1.5 to 210km, and the accuracy of baseline length by GPS relative positioning was variously considered. As result of this study, using a GPS receiving L1 frequency only, baseline accuracy for 2 hour observation was of the order of 0.3ppm for the 10km, and for I hour was below 1ppm. Using a GPS receiving dual frequency(L1/L2), baseline accuracy was of the order of 0.3ppm for the 100km to 200km as 3 hour observation using double difference methods by carrier phase. With basic on the result of this study, when observation and baseline processing are proceeded by the selected optimum observation time and using of baseline processing method, we can expect that geographical information will be acquired effectively.

This paper presents an algorithm for the appropriate parameter selection of a power system stabilizer and power converters in two-area power systems with a series HVDC links. The method for PSS is one of the classical techniques by allocating properly poly-zero positions to fit as closely as desired the ideal phase lead and by changing the gain to produce a necessary damping torque. Proper parameter of power converters are obtained in order to have sufficient speed and stability margin to cope with changing reference values and disturbances based on the Root-locus technique. The small signal and transient stability studies using the PSS and power converters parameters obtained from these methods show that a natural oscillation frequency of the study case system is adequately damped. The simulation used in the paper was performed by the Power System Toolbox software program based on MATLAB.

Sodium titanate nanosheets were prepared by a hydrothermal synthesis method under basic conditions. Ruthenium was introduced on the surface of sodium titanate nanosheets through an UV irradiation in the aqueous $RuCl_3$ solution. The crystal phase and morphology of synthesized samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. In addition, the content of Ru was evaluated by inductively coupled plasma. It was proposed that a monomeric form of ruthenium was incorporated on the surface of sodium titanate. Ruthenium incorporated sodium titanates were applied to alcohol oxidation using molecular oxygen as an oxidant. The sample with 7% ruthenium showed a catalytic activity with a turnover frequency value of $2.1h^{-1}$ in oxidizing benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde without any other byproducts at $105^{\circ}C$ and 1 atmosphere.
