The automotive door has a large finite element model in analysis and many design requirements such as stiffness, natural frequency, side intrusion, etc. Thus, various related governing equations should be solved for systematic analysis and design. Because each governing equation has different characteristics, it is almost impossible to solve them simultaneously. Instead, they are separately handled and the analysis results are incorporated into the design separately. Currently, the design is usually conducted by trials and errors with engineering intuition in design practice. In this research, MDO methods are proposed to solve the problems that share design variables in disciplines. The idea is from the Gauss-Seidel type method for multi-discipline analysis. The developed methods show stable convergence and the weight of the door is reduced by fifteen percent.

In this paper, we have proposed the efficient algorithm that can segment the video scene change using a various statistical characteristics obtained from by applying the wavelet transformation for each frames. Our method firstly extracts the histogram features from low frequency subband of wavelet-transformed image and then uses these features to detect the abrupt scene change. Second, it extracts the edge information from applying the mesh method to the high frequency subband of transformed image. We quantify the extracted edge information as the values of variance characteristic of each pixel and use these values to detect the gradual scene change. And we have also proposed an algorithm how extract the proper key frame from segmented video scene. Experiment results show that the proposed method is both very efficient algorithm in segmenting video frames and also is to become the appropriate key frame extraction method.

This paper evaluates the impacts for interference from UWB system, and determines the tolerable UWB power spectral density(PSD) to the new deploying system, which is called a portable internet service in Korea. It also proposes the interference analysis scheme that can evaluate the characteristics of the performance degradation for portable internet service according to the emission power of UWB systems at the specified frequency bands. The proposed scheme includes a multi-rate and data service environments to deal with interference to portable internet service. It is obtained from simulation results that the transmission PSD of UWB systems should be rigidly restricted by less approximately 10 ${\~}$ 20 dB than FCC provisional limit for coexistence between UWB and portable internet service already allocated at 2.3 GHz frequency bands in Korea.

We designed and fabricated plate-type linear ultrasonic motor. It used multi-vibration mode, 1st Longitudinal and 4th Bending mode. To analyze vibration mode and find maximum displacement point, we simulated using FEM(Finite Element Method). The plate-type linear ultrasonic motor was fabricated by the simulation results. Also, to confirm application to card-forwarding device, frequency and load characteristics were measured. Its resonance frequency was 49.6 kHz, and its maximum speed was about 0.6m/s when no load. Also, its maximum efficiency was 1.2 % and in that time, speed and torque was 0.3 m/s and 0.7 mNm, respectively.

The railway vehicle is a multi-body system running on the track which consists of carbody, bogie and wheelset, each of components is connected with rigid mass, spring and damper. each of components has translation motions of longitudinal (X axis), lateral(Y axis) and vertical(Z axis) direction, and rotation motions of X, Y, Z axis which are named Rolling, Pitching and Yawing. The vibration mode of railway vehicle is difficult to find the characteristics of motion during the operation on the track because these happen to independence or duplication motion caused by vehicle, wheel/rail and track irregularity etc. This paper presents the result of ramp test to show the bounce, roll, pitch and yaw mode frequency of the railway vehicle.

In this work, tunable capacitors using a finger-type electrode are designed and characterized for frequency-agile RF circuit applications. Their top electrodes with different area and line width are designed in types of the finger for a long conducting perimeter which results in enhanced fringing-electric fields in order to improve their tunability. The tunable varactors were fabricated on a quartz substrate employing a multi-layer dielectric of a para/ferro/para-electric thin film. Compared to the conventional capacitor, finger-type capacitors are characterized in terms of effective capacitance and tunablility. Their effective capacitance and tunability with the long perimeter increase 24~40% and 7~12%, respectively, due to enhanced fringing electric fields from 1 to 2.5 GHz, compared to the conventional ones.

In this paper we have investigated the removal characteristics of NOx by pulsed corona discharge with a multi-pointplane electrode where a magnetic field is applied in the discharge region. The efficiency of NOx removal was measured and analyzed as a function of pulse frequency gas flow rate NOx initial concentration magnetic flux density. In this result the highest removal efficiency of NOx was obtained at the following operating conditions; the frequency =400[Hz] gas flow =1[$\ell$/min] initial concentration= 400[ppm] and magnetic flux density=0.36[T].

Animation understanding and time-resolved analysis of the wake characteristic of 2-D sharp plane flows were executed by applying the multi-vision PIV to a sharp plane(three angle of attacks : $15^{\circ}, \; 30^{\circ}, \; 45^{\circ}$) submerged within a circulating water channel($Re = 2{\times}10^4$). The macroscopic shedding patterns were discussed in terms of instantaneous velocity, vorticity, velocity profile, kinetic energy, turbulent intensity, frequency analysis. Particularly, the time-averaged distribution of turbulent intensity in each experimental cases revealed separate island-like small regions magnitude of turbulent intensity was always strengthened.

A wideband monopole antenna using a parasitic branch is proposed for allowing operations at multiple frequency bands specified in GSM($824{\sim}894MHz$), PCS($1750{\sim}1870MHz$), WiBro($2.3{\sim}2.4GHz$), WLAN/ISM ($2.4{\sim}2.48GHz$) and SDMB($2.605{\sim}2.655GHz$). We have used two branch monopoles and the one parasitic branch. Prototype of the multiband antenna have been successfully implemented and good radiation characteristics the operating frequency bands have been obtained. The effect of a parasitic branch was also studied.

The waveforms of partial discharges (PDs) imply physical and structural properties of PD sources, so analyzing them give us information on the kind of PD sources and the location. Waveforms of PD as a time series function have variable amplitudes but sustain a certain uniform shape, which shows well the characteristics of the waveforms and frequency region. They can also be used as parameters having time and frequency information of PD signals and applied to classification of multiple PDs sources via Artificial Neural Network with back propagation (BP) learning.
