In general, the aluminum extrusions are used to the light construction of the high speed rail vehicle structures. However, the research works ok the crashworthy design of the high speed rail vehicle structures are not published sufficiently because the crash test of high speed rail vehicle structures costs high and is complicated. So, a method that can predict crash characteristics of a large size structure like a high speed tail vehicle should be suggested. In this study, the scale model studies are performed to predict the impact energy absorption characteristics of full scale model. In the first place, we verified the theory of scale law using FE-simulation from the crashworthiness point of view. Secondly, we performed the crush test using scale model, made of aluminum sub structure. As a result, we could predict the crash characteristics using scale model by 10∼20% error.

Although the general concept of suffering care includes palliative care for the terminally ill that is designed to alleviate pain, it is much more holistic and encompasses emotional, spiritual and other life dimensions. Human suffering is multi-dimensional including spiritual and religious aspects, which diverge from the concept of pain understood in the context of materialistic medical approach. In this caring perspective, the body, mind and spirit are integrated so that objectivity and subjectivity can merge. The extended awareness with inner source or energy, and positive thinking about the personally-relevant God can be meaningful the dying person, family members and the caring team. Despite the importance of an inclusive understanding of human suffering, actual nursing practice still does not fully embrace the full understanding of human suffering. A more fundamental meaning of human suffering from the nursing perspective may fruitfully adopt a more inclusive view of human suffering.

In the design of high speed fishing vessel, its hull form has to be decided from a view point of resistance and propulsion performance without negelction of seakeeping characteristics. In spite of many efforts, the performance improvement by hull form itself has its limitations, specially for high speed craft. In this paper, the development of performance of resistance and seakeeping improving appendage for high speed planing hull on behalft of the hull form of fishing vessel has been introduced. The developed appendage verified its effectiveness in the full scale test.

From the cost-effective point of view, it is very important to design a current with the highest utilization factor of current capacity of power devices. This can be accomplished by a current controller without overshoot irrespective of the varying bounds of control voltage in PWM converters and the dead time due to the time delay. This paper suggests a novel decoupled controller with Smith-Predictor which has the fast control response without overshoot and steady stats error and also deal with the design method of the controller for PWM converters. The extensive digital simulations done by SIMULINK/MATLAB show that the suggested controller guarantees the full utilization of current capacity of power devices and the decoupled current control behavior.

This paper is mainly concerned with a high frequency soft-switching PWM inverter suitable for consumer induction heating systems. The proposed system is composed of a soft switching chopper based boost PFC converter stage with passive snubber and phase shifted PWM controlled full bridge ZVZCS high frequency inverter stage. Its fundamental operating performances are illustrated and evaluated in the experimental results. Its effectiveness is substantially proved on the basis of the experimental results from a practical point of view.

Reactor Noise is defined as the fluctuations of measured instrumentation signals during full-power operation of reactor which have informations on reactor system dynamics such as neutron kinetics. The Reactor internal structures which consist of many complex components are subjected to flow-induced vibration due to high temperature and pressure in reactor coolant system. The above flow-induced vibration causes degradation of structural integrity of the reactor and may result in loosing mechanical binding component which might impact other equipment and component or cause flow blockage. It is important to analyze reactor noise signal for the early detection of potential problem or failure in order to diagnosis reactor integrity in the point of view of safety and plant economics. Detailed design of hardware diagnostic system reactor internal structures using neutron noise(RIDS).

A high performance dual rocking magnet sputtering gun has been developed. The rocking magnet sputtering gun introduces full-face erosion by rapidly rocking the magnet in the region where the high plasma density is maintained. The newly developed dual rocking magnet sputtering gun whose target utilization was 77 percent achieved high performance in quality in the view of target utilization and target life-time comparing to the existing magnetron sputtering gun. The PIC-MCC target erosion simulation has been performed simultaneously. Comparing experimental target erosion profiles with simulated target erosion profiles, the simulation could estimate the tendency of the target erosion profiles but could not estimate an exact target erosion profile. If the simulation were improved more precisely, the cost reduction for the development of the multiple rocking magnet sputtering gun would be expected.

IS changeback is regarded as an offective way to control the usage of computers and communication systems which are very much limited resources and whose costs are very high, In this paper, the problem of combining the optimal chargeback system which guarantees the efficiency with the Rawls'(1971) concept of fairness. Primary conclusion of this paper is that if the value function which represents the contributions of IS user to the firm's profit is evidit and there is no uncertainty about this contribution information, optimality can be achived without any loss of fairness using full cost allocation pricing. But if there is no significant differences among contribution of each user and there is no significant differences among users because of the managerial arbitrariness, From this point of view contingent chargeback system with which manager can find the golden middle between optimality and fairness by adjusting the 'efficiency coefficient' according to his/her organizational characterisics and environments is proposed. A heuristic of finding the appropriate efficiency coefficient is also suggested.

단일 영상의 시야각 한계를 극복하기 위해 다중 영상으로부터 하나의 파노라마 영상으로 만들 수 있다. 파노라마 영상은 좌우 360도까지의 시야각을 확보할 수 있어서 복잡한 실제 환경을 가상 환경에서의 배경으로 사용하고자 할 경우에 유용하다. 본 논문에서는 가상 환경에서의 배경으로 사용할 수 있는 파노라마 영상 생성 기법을 제안한다. 다중 영상들을 촬영하고 이를 사용하여 하나의 구형 파노라마 영상을 생성한다. 상하 시야각을 180도까지 확보하기 위한 제작 기법을 제시한다. 또한 생성된 구형 파노라마 영상으로부터 3차원 렌더링에 적합한 텍스쳐로의 변환과정을 제시한다 실제 환경을 가상화할 시에 파노라마 배경을 사용하면 조밀한 배경을3차원적으로 모델링하지 않고도 배경을 3차원적으로 표현할 수 있으므로 제안된 기법은 가상현실 응용에 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.

A study on collision analysis of TGV-K using a 2-dimensional model is described to evaluate its crashworthiness. Two-dimensional analysis gives good information on overriding behaviour and impact forces applied to interconnecting devices such as side buffers, ball & socket joints, hooks, pins, and fingers. Since the headstock of TGV-K is not designed in a crashworthy point of view, its conceptual design fur KHST(Korean High Speed Train), under development, is suggested to improve crashworthiness. The suggested design, which adopts an energy absorber and a crashworthy headstock, is compared with the conventional headstock on dynamic behaviour to the vertical direction under the accident scenario of SNCF (collision at 110km/h against a movable rigid mass of 15 ton). It is concluded that the design modification make little difference in vertical motion. To evaluate validation of the 2-dimensional model, the results fur longitudinal motion is compared with those of 1-dimemsional one. It is found that the two results are in good agreements.
