  • The Self-Controlled Screen which removed canal underwear garbage in order to prevent the damage of the arable land that increased by a typhoon and a concentration precipitation was developed. A method to remove garbage let communicate the force that a water mill was run by water pressure in the canal, and occurred in a water mill to Rake, and to have walked on a screen was adopted. As a result of was designed by structure calculation, and was made, and having installed in an experimental laboratory, operation was able to know that was become smoothly well. Afterwards, It is going to test for model development of a water mill to be able to more very generate an influence and force to reach to a canal.

  • An optimal design method is adopted for a spacer grid in nuclear power plant. It is made of punched sheet metal process, functioning as springs and dimples supporting fuel rods. For stress analysis of the assembled fuel rod support, a typical cell out of the repeated pattern in the assembly is modeled using 4-node shell elements. A commercial code, ABAQUS, is used for detailed analysis of contacting phenomena with friction. For the optimization, design varibles are taken from geometric parameters representing the shape of the bent leaf spring part and mating contact region with fuel rod. Objective function is considered in relation to mechanical functions and durability. Maximum yon Mises stress is considered in relation to constrained contact stress.

  • A large number of natural products were worldwidely discovered from maine organisms. There are many secondary metabolites produced by maine organisms which showed very strong bio-activities and distinct bio-active mechanisms. In korea, about 350 secondary metabolites including more than 280 novel compounds have been isolated and structually defined. Many researches for developing products such as cosmetics, functional food materials, anti-fouling substances are being performed using distinct activities of marine organisms. Although the research on marine natural products has been remained at its initial or developing stage of drug development, significant progress has been made for isolation, structure determination and bioassay of secondary metabolites.

  • Nature has provided inspiration for most of the man-made technologies. Scientists believe that dolphins are the second to humans in smartness and intelligence. Echolocation is the biological sonar used by dolphins for navigation and hunting in various environments. This ability of dolphins is mimicked in this paper to develop a new optimization method. Dolphin Echolocation Optimization (DEO) is an optimization method based on dolphin's approach for hunting food and exploration of environment. DEO has already been developed for discrete optimization search space and here it is extended to continuous search space. DEO has simple rules and is adjustable for predetermined computational cost. DEO provides the optimum results and leads to alternative optimality curves suitable for the problem. This algorithm has a few parameters and it is applicable to a wide range of problems like other metaheuristic algorithms. In the present work, the efficiency of this approach is demonstrated using standard benchmark problems.

  • In general, engineers have to consider a variety of factors in design of a structure. For this reason, it was difficult to make a design program up to now. But the rapid development of hardware and software turns it into a possibile one with considering complex factors and designing simple structures. When we use the design program including structural analysis, we can save time and cost to make calculations; report and drawing. In addition, the design program was developed to reduce the man made errors. Therefore, in this study, we try to develope the design program of the superstructure of P.S.C girder bridge and abutment. This program will provide engineers with time that they can spend on a creative and efficiency task for development of design.

  • The effect of solution agitation on the copper electroless deposition process of ULSI (ultra large scale integration) interconnections was investigated by using physical, electrochemical and electrical techniques. It was found that proper solution agitation was effective to obtain superconformal copper configuration within the trenches of $130{\sim}80nm$ width. The transition of open potential during electroless deposition process showed that solution agitation induced compact structure of copper deposits by suppressing mass transfer of cuprous ions toward substrate. Also, the specific resistivity of copper layers was lowered by increasing agitation speed, which made the deposited copper particles smaller. Considering both copper deposit configuration and electric property, around 500 rpm of solution agitation was the most suitable for the homogeneous electroless copper filling within the ultra-fine patterns.

  • For the prosthodontic results which are compatible with esthetics to be fulfilled, the first prerequisite would be periodontal intervention and stability, the second one may be functional competency and the ultimate goal should be ascribed to esthetic considerations. Other words, esthetic dentistry is a whole entity which encompasses the biological stability of the periodontium, physical accuracy of the prosthodontic structure and finally, the beauty which can be found in natural dentition. It also implies the harmonized lip line which reveals the well-balanced tooth morphology and health gum profiles (Red-White Esthetics). Largely, there lie some differences in the input system of the 3-dimentional data from the prepared abutments between respective computer-assisted systems available now. But the manufacturing systems (CAM) are very similar between them, to say, comprise numeric control systems with whole 3-dimensional milling units according to the restorations to be made. Now the author is going to present CAD/CAM Zirconia All Ceramic Restoration on the topics for the Red-White Esthetics, periodontal control and maintenance, treatment for the discolored teeth, post & core build-up works for the devitalized teeth, characteristics of the Zirconium oxide All Ceramics, fabrication procedures, clinical considerations and its application to diverse clinical situations.

  • SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) has characteristics well-suited for the measurement of geophysical parameters during day and night in all weather conditions. Recently, SAR data with high resolution acquired by satellites became available to the public. In such data, many features and phenomena of geometric structure of man-made objects and natural environments become observable. In this paper, we discuss main considerations including geometric distortion and coregistration for efficient utilization of high resolution SAR images. And, various advanced technologies in SAR application fields are introduced.

  • Nanostructured materials can be engineered by the controlled assembly of several suitable nano-objects as the building blocks. While, materials properties are determined by their atomic and molecular constituents and structure, their functionalities emerge when the microstructure of these early ensembles is in the nanometer regime. The properties and functionalities of these ensembles may be different as their size grows from the nano-regime to the micron regime and bulk structures. Nanotechnology, offers a unique possibility to manipulate the properties through the fabrication of materials using the nano-objects as building blocks. Nanotechnology is therefore considered an enabling technology by which existing materials, virtually all man-made materials, can acquire novel properties and functionalities making them suitable for numerous novel applications varying from structural and functional to advanced biomedical in-vivo and in-vitro applications.
