The capacitive sensor has a simple structure, compact size and low cost, but a small dynamic range. The small range is caused by use of gap variation. If the sensor takes area variation type with one plate moving horizontally, it can have a large measurable range. While the area variation has relatively low sensitivity, some studies have found methods to improve the sensitivity. Even though the methods are effective, parameters of the results are limited and 2 dimensional. This study provides more practical and 3 dimensional analysis and suggests relations between parameters. Using the results, the optimized design parameters of a high dynamic range capacitive sensor can be found.

A position estimation technique is presented for a missile using high-resolution range profiles obtained by three wideband radars. Radar measures a target range using a reflected signal from the surface of a missile. However, it is difficult to obtain the range between the radar and the origin of the missile. For this reason, the interior angle between the moving missile and tracking radar is calculated, and a compensated range between surface of the missile and its origin is added to the tracking range of the radar. Therefore, position estimation of a missile can be achieved by using three total ranges from each radar to the origin of the missile. To verify the position estimation of the missile, electromagnetic numerical analysis software was used to prove the compensated range according to the flight position. Moreover, a wideband radar operating at 500-MHz bandwidth was applied, and its range profile was used for the position estimation of a missile.

In this study, electroglottographic spectral tilt (EST) was investigated for characterization of vocal cords vibration. EST was analyzed from the power spectrum of electroglottographic signals by dividing frequency analysis range as full range (0~4 octave), low range (0~2 octave), and high range (2~4 octave). EST of all ranges in female were greater than those in male. In female and male groups, EST of high range was higher than that of low range. This result suggests that EST has at least two components and dividing frequency range in analysis of EST is effective for investigating characteristics of vocal cords vibration.

Recently, there has been a growing demand for soft magnetic materials with high conversion characteristics, due to the trend of electric devices to higher-frequency range. For ruduceing core loss in the high-frequency range, using finely grained and high-resistivity Fe-based alloy powder is most efficient methods. But, conventionally, there's been a compressibility problem for such powder. In this work, Fe-based alloy powder that offers both high resistivity and high compressibility was developed by studyuing composition of the powder, and reduction of core loss of P/M soft magnetic materials in the high frequency range was achieved.

A high efficiency half bridge converter for PDP in whole operation load range is proposed in this paper. The ZVS(Zero Voltage Switching) in whole load range and high efficiency in low load range is achieved because the proposed converter is switched by fixed frequency asymmetrical duty ratio and resonant operation.

This paper proposes a method to improve the performance of low cost infrared distance sensor. Infrared distance sensor measures the intensity of reflected light and converts it into distance. The proposed method improves the sensing distance of the sensor and makes it operate robustly in various lighting environments. This is achieved by extracting the characteristic curves of the sensor and applying the HDR (High Dynamic Range) technique. The output value of the sensor was obtained by varying the intensity of the infrared input and the exposure time, and the characteristic curve of the sensor was extracted from it.

The ballistic range has long been employed in a variety of engineering fields such as high-velocity impact engineering, projectile aerodynamics, creation of new materials, etc, since it can create an extremely high-pressure state in very short time. Two-stage light gas gun is being employed most extensively. The present experimental study has been conducted to develop a new type of ballistic range which can easily perform a projectile simulation. The ballistic range consists of a high-pressure tube, piston, pump tube, shock tube and launch tube. The experiment is conducted to find out the dependence of various parameters on the projectile velocity. The pressure in high-pressure tube, pressure of diaphragm rupture and projectile mass are varied to obtain various projectile velocities. This study also addresses the effect of the presence of a shock tube located between the pump tube and launch tube on system study. The experimental results are compared with those obtained through an author's theoretical study.

High temperature low cycle fatigue crack growth behavior is investigated over a range of two temperatures and various frequencies in SUS 304 stainless steel. It is found that low frequency and temperature can enhance time-dependent crack growth. With high temperature, low frequency and long crack length, ${\Delta}J_c/{\Delta}J_ f$, the ratio of creep J integral range to fatigue J integral range is increased and time-dependent crack growth is accelerated. Interaction between ${\Delta}J_f$ and ${\Delta}J_c$ is occured at high frequency and low temparature and ${\Delta}J_c$, creep J integral range is fracture mechanical parameter on transition from cycle-dependent to time dependent crack growth in creep temperature region.

One of the important problems associated with building demolition is the dust generated during the work. The only way to reduce the demolition dust is to use a dust net during water spraying. However, it is difficult to supply the necessary amount of water to remove demolition dust, thus making it difficult to apply this method on a demolition site. This work attempted to find an alternative approach to dust removal by incorporating surfactant and high range AE water reducer in the water being sprayed. Through the experiment, it was found that the addition of surfactant did not contribute to the removal of demolition dust. However, the use of high range AE water reducer showed better performance than spraying plain water, indicating that some amount of demolition dust had been adsorbed on the high range AE water reducer.
