Laser beam is directional and small in divergence angle so that it is well qualified to deliver high intensity infrared energy into a coming MANPADS threat for aircraft survivability. The threat will be deceived and loose tracking of a target when it is exposed to the laser beam modulated relevant to the track mechanism of the threat. The laser beam goes through scattering inside the seeker of the threat and reach the detector in a stray light form, which is a critical phenomenon enabling jamming of the seeker. The mechanism of the laser beam based jamming against a pulse modulated infrared seeker is shown. Simulations are carried out to support the understanding of how the jam technique works.

Langmuir probe measurements of electron density, electron temperature and potential are mad in the early stage (<5${\mu}$s) of a laser ablated plasma plume, in which a positive current form positive ions and a electron current are overlapped. The plasma wes produced by focusing the second harmonic, 532 nm, of Q-switched Nd:YAG laser on a high purity carbon target. Then the laser intensity on the target of ~1.6${\times}$10$\^$15/ W/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The measured electron desities and temperatures are ~2${\times}$10/sip 11/ cm$\^$-3/ and -3 eV. In particluar , the phenomenon that the electron temperature decreased and then increased was observed,. It could be well explained that this phenomenon occurred in the process of inverse Bremsstrahlung of free electrons in plasma. Additionally, the plasma potential(>11V) was higher than the published values.

To evaluate physical characteristics of open rainfall in Korea, terminal velocity of raindrop and drop size distributions (DSD) were continuously measured using by laser-optical disdrometer around Gosam reservoir, Anseong-si, Gyeonggi-do during three rainfall events from 2008 to 2009. The relationships between kinetic energies (KE, Jm^-2mm^-1; KER, Jm^-2h^-1) and rainfall intensity were obtained, respectively. Moreover, we compared the rainfall intensity from a disdrometer with the rainfall intensity from a tipping bucket raingauge to transform the kinetic energy of rainfall using the data from a tipping bucket raingauge. Therefore, the established relationships between kinetic energies (KE and KER) and rainfall intensity could be a useful model to consider the kinetic energy of raindrop using the rainfall intensity below 40mmh^-1 of max 5-min rainfall intensity in the middle of South Korea. However, to better examine the relationship between kinetic energy and rainfall intensity, further measurement will be required.

In recent years, laser induced graphene process have been intensively studied for eco-friendly electronic device such as flexible electronics or thin film based energy storage devices because of its simple and effective process. In order to increase the performance and efficiency of an electronic device using such a graphene patterned structure, it is essential to study an optimized laser patterning condition as small as possible linewidth while maintaining the graphene-specific 2-dimensional characteristics. In this study, we analyzed to find the optimal line pattern by using a Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser based photo-thermal reduction process. we tuned intensity and scanning speed of laser spot for generating effective graphene characteristic and minimum thermal effect. As a result, we demonstrated the reduced graphene pattern of 30㎛ in linewidth by using a focused laser beam of 18㎛ in diameter.

Tunnel management is a time-consuming and expensive task. In particular, visual analysis of tunnel inspection often requires extended time and cost and shows problems on data gathering, storage and analysis. This study proposes a new approach to extract information for tunnel management by using a laser scanning technology. A prototype tunnel laser scanner developed was used to obtain point clouds of a railway tunnel surface. Initial processing of laser scanning data was to separate those laser pulses returned from the installations attached to tunnel liner using radiometric and geometric characteristics of laser returns. Once the laser returns from the installations were separated and removed, physically damaged parts on tunnel lining are detected. Based on the plane formed by laser scanner data, damaged parts are detected by analysis of proximity. The algorithms presented in this study successfully detect the physically damaged parts which can be verified by the digital photography of the corresponding location on the tunnel surface.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of laser acupuncture according to the wavelength(532 nm, 650 nm, 830 nm, 904 nm, and 1064 nm) at the acupoint of GB34 GB39 on neuropathic pain rat induced by tibial and sural nerve transection(TST). Methods : Neuropathic pain in rats was induced by tibial nerve and sural nerve transection. The rats were divided into the intact group, the TST control group, and the laser acupuncture therapy group. The laser acupuncture therapy groups were then divided into subgroups with 532 nm(L532), 650 nm(L650), 830 nm(L830), 904 nm(L904), and 1064 nm(L1064) laser acupuncture therapy. The acupoint of GB34 GB39 was selected, and laser acupuncture therapy was provided on both sides alternatively twice a week in a total of 6 sessions. Results : All the laser acupuncture groups showed a significant decrease in reaction time and force intensity. L532, L904, and L1064 groups showed a significant decrease in Bax, the L532 group showed a significant increase in Bcl-2, L532 and L1064 groups showed a significant decrease in the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, and L532 and L650 groups showed a significant increase in mGluR5, as compared with the TST control group, among nerve tissue reaction. Conclusions : These results showed that laser acupuncture therapy at each of the wavelengths had some significance on neuropathic pain.

Background and Objectives In designing a resistance exercise program, intensity, rest, and exercise volume are important. Many studies have been conducted to find the most suitable resistance exercise program incorporating the above, and in particular, many prior studies have been conducted on intensity. This study attempted to determine the effective volume of exercise by analyzing the number of repetitions performed at intensities of 65% one-repetition maximum (1RM) and 75% 1RM during the bench press exercise, and the electromyography (EMG) response of the agonist muscle. Materials and Methods Eight males in their 20s were selected as study subjects and they performed five sets of bench presses at two levels of intensity (65% 1RM, 75% 1RM). The following results were obtained by measuring the number of repetitions and the EMG response according to the exercise intensity and sets during the workout. Results First, the number of repetitions showed a sharp drop from the first set to the third set at 65% 1RM intensity and showed no change in the fourth and fifth sets. At 75% 1RM intensity, the intensity of hypertrophy showed a gradual decrease from the first set to the fifth set. Second, at 75% 1RM exercise intensity, the pectoralis major, anterior deltoid and triceps brachii showed high muscle activity, and the activity of the anterior deltoid continued to increase from the first set to the fourth set at 65% 1RM intensity, and from the first set to the fifth set at 75% 1RM. Conclusion It was found that during the bench press exercise, three minutes of rest at 75% 1RM intensity, five sets of five sets, one minute rest at 65% 1RM intensity, and three sets of the exercise were effective.

Insulators contaminated by salt particles may cause flashovers in humid climate or light rain. Therefore, the quantity of salt on insulators should be monitored not to exceed a critical value. We propose a new remote sensing technique to measure the quantity of salt on insulators of power systems. The amount of the salt is measured from the intensity of the spontaneous emission from the sodium atoms. In this paper, a compact remote on-line salt-meter composed of Q Switch pulsed Nd:YAG laser and emission signal detection system will be introduced. And as the first result of this study, the operating characteristics of our developing laser system is also introduced.

Simultaneous measurement with PLIF(Planar Laser-Induced Fluorescence) and Stereo-PIV(Stereo Particle Image Velocimetry) was performed to investigate the structural characteristics of flow field in Rushton Turbine Mixer. Instantaneous 3D velocity fields are measured by two 2K${\times}$2K CCD cameras focused on an object plane with the angular displacement methods while the concentration fields are obtained through the measurement of the fluorescence intensity of Rhodamine B tracer excited by the second pulse of Nd:Yag laser light. Image distortion due to the camera view-angle is compensated by a mapping function. Finally, the spatial structures of turbulent flow around Rushton turbine were identified by the calculation of synchronized data of the velocity field and concentration field.

[ $Al_[2}O_{3}$ ] ceramics are generally used as components in processing equipment, devices or machinery. But it's difficult to machining as being machanical because $Al_[2}O_{3}$ ceramics are brittle materials. This study described a basic study of the input parameters effect on the dimension of the microhole at the $Al_[2}O_{3}$ ceramics using Nd:YAG laser. Major input parameters are peak power, pulse frequency and pulse duration in the laser microhole machining of $Al_[2}O_{3}$ ceramics. We will get a smaller microhole and diameter rate by an appropriate peak power, pulse duration.
