To address the wire complexity problem in large-scale globally asynchronous, locally synchronous systems, a current-mode ternary encoding scheme was devised for a two-phase asynchronous protocol. However, for data transmission through a very long wire, few studies have been conducted on reducing the long propagation delay in current-mode circuits. Hence, this paper proposes a current steering logic (CSL) that is able to minimize the long delay for the devised current-mode ternary encoding scheme. The CSL creates pulse signals that charge or discharge the output signal in advance for a short period of time, and as a result, helps prevent a slack in the current signals. The encoder and decoder circuits employing the CSL are implemented using $0.25-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The results of an HSPICE simulation show that the normal and optimal mode operations of the CSL achieve a delay reduction of 11.8% and 28.1%, respectively, when compared to the original scheme for a 10-mm wire. They also reduce the power-delay product by 9.6% and 22.5%, respectively, at a data rate of 100 Mb/s for the same wire length.

The pumped storage plant operates with quick change of the discharge as well as quick changes between pump mode and turbine mode. This study focuses on the cavitation analysis of a pump-turbine model because in turbo-machinery, cavitation can reduce the performance and shorten service life. The pump-turbine model system consists of 7 blades, 20 stay vanes (including tongue) and 20 guide vanes. This study adopts the Rayleigh-Plesset model as a cavitation model, which illustrates cavitation by using the air volume fraction method. The pump mode and turbine mode at the operating condition of partial loading, normal and excessive loading are analyzed to investigate the cavitation performance of the pump-turbine. It was observed that this pump-turbine design showed very good cavitation characteristics with no cavitation bubbles in all operating conditions. Overall value of air volume fraction of both mode at different operating condition are lower than 1, which confirms low possibility of cavitation occurrence at current situation.

A numerical scheme based on a mode superposition method is presented for the dynamic response analysis of a top-tensioned riser (TTR) under sheared current loads. The natural frequencies and mode shapes of the TTR have been calculated analytically for a beam with a slowly varying tension and pinned-pinned boundary conditions at the top and bottom ends. The lift coefficients and corresponding amplitudes used to estimate the vortex-induced modal force and damping for each mode were predicted via iterative calculations based on the input and output power balancing concept. Here, the power-in regions were controlled by the normal distribution function, for which the center was coincident with the lock -in location by local vortex-shedding, and the range was defined by the constant standard deviation for the reduced velocity by the local current speed. Finally, dynamic responses such as root-mean-squared displacement and stress were calculated using the mode superposition technique. In order to verify the presented scheme, a numerical calculation was performed for a TTR under an arbitrary linearly sheared current and linearly varying tension. A comparison with the results of the existing software showed that the presented scheme could give reliable and feasible solutions. Case studies were performed to investigate the effects of various current loads and tensions.

Modal identification based on ambient vibration data has attracted extensive attention in the past few decades. Since the excitation for ambient vibration tests is mainly from the environmental effects such as wind and traffic loading and no artificial excitation is applied, the signal to noise (s/n) ratio of the data acquired plays an important role in mode identifiability. Under ambient vibration conditions, certain modes may not be identifiable due to a low s/n ratio. This paper presents a study on the mode identifiability of an instrumented cable-stayed bridge with the use of acceleration response data measured by a long-term structural health monitoring system. A recently developed fast Bayesian FFT method is utilized to perform output-only modal identification. In addition to identifying the most probable values (MPVs) of modal parameters, the associated posterior uncertainties can be obtained by this method. Likewise, the power spectral density of modal force can be identified, and thus it is possible to obtain the modal s/n ratio. This provides an efficient way to investigate the mode identifiability. Three groups of data are utilized in this study: the first one is 10 data sets including six collected under normal wind conditions and four collected during typhoons; the second one is three data sets with wind speeds of about 7.5 m/s; and the third one is some blind data. The first two groups of data are used to perform ambient modal identification and help to estimate a critical value of the s/n ratio above which the deficient mode is identifiable, while the third group of data is used to perform verification. A couple of fundamental modes are identified, including the ones in the vertical and transverse directions respectively and coupled in both directions. The uncertainty and s/n ratio of the deficient mode are investigated and discussed. A critical value of the modal s/n ratio is suggested to evaluate the mode identifiability of the deficient mode. The work presented in this paper could provide a base for the vibration-based condition assessment in future.

대두에 포함된 유용 인지질 PE, PI, PC를 분리하기 위해서 정상 HPLC를 이용하였다. 이동상으로 hexane, isopropanol, methanol을 사용하였고 일정용매조성법으로는 세 물질을 분리할 수 없었기 때문에 구배용매조성법을 적용하였다. 최적 분리조건을 구하기 위해서 단 이론과 step-gradient mode에서의 용량인자를 계산하는 식으로부터 농도분포곡선을 계산하였다. 계산 결과에 의하면 PE는 일정용매조성법 (hexane/isopropanol/methanol=90/5/5vo1.%)에서 분리하고 PI와 PC를 분리하기 위해서는 10분의 구배시간과 두번째 이동상을 hexane/isopropanol/methanol=50/20/30(vol.%)으로 계단함수의 구배용매조성법을 사용하는 것이다. 계산된 최적 분리조건을 실험 data와 비교한 결과 잘 일치하였고 이 제시된 방법은 구배용매조성법에서 최적 분리조건을 구하는데 이용될 수 있었다.

MLD STZ로 당뇨를 유발시킨 SD rat에서 투여 시기에 따른 백삼의 항당뇨 활성을 비교한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 동시 투여군은 실험 시작 초반에 체중이 감소하는 듯 하였다가 당뇨 대조군에 비하여 현저히 체중이 증가하였고 후 투여군 역시 백삼의 투여에 의하여 체중이 증가하였다. 2. 동시 투여군에서 STZ 투여 후 초반 7일간 혈당이 상승 하였으나 곧 탁월한 혈당 강하 활성을 나타내었으며 또한 계속적:인 당뇨병의 진행을 막아주었다. 후 투여군에서는 즉각적으로 혈당 강하 활성이 나타났고 이는 투여 종료 시점까지 유지되었다. 3. 동시 투여군과 후 투여군 모두 식이량과 음용수 섭취량을 개선시켜 주었다. 4. 동시 투여군과 후 투여군은 모두 체중 대비 신장 무게의 비를 낮추어 줌으로써 고혈당으로 인해 야기되는 신장비대를 개선시켜 주었다. 5. STZ로 유도된 당뇨 흰쥐에서 백삼이 혈당 강하 활성을 나타내는 것은 췌장 베타세포의 보호 활성과 insulin의 분비 촉진과 관련이 있을 것으로 추측된다. 6. 각 투여군에서 투여 종료시점의 혈당이 당뇨 대조군에 비하여 각각 64%, 67%수준을 나타내어 백삼이 당뇨병이 발생되기 전이나 혹은 당뇨병이 발생된 후에 투여되더라도 우수한 혈당강하 효과를 나타낼 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 인삼은 impaired glucose tolerance(IGT)를 나타내는 사람에서 당뇨병의 발병을 예방할 목적으로 투여할수 있을 뿐만 아니라 이미 당뇨병이 발병된 사람에서도 우수한 혈당 강하 활성을 나타내어 치료제로서의 가능성도 보여주었다.

This paper presents a new locomotion mode recognition method based on a transformed correlation feature analysis using an electromyography (EMG) pattern. Each movement is recognized using six weighted subcorrelation filters, which are applied to the correlation feature analysis through the use of six time-domain features. The proposed method has a high recognition rate because it reflects the importance of the different features according to the movements and thereby enables one to recognize real-time EMG patterns, owing to the rapid execution of the correlation feature analysis. The experiment results show that the discriminating power of the proposed method is 85.89% (${\pm}2.5$) when walking on a level surface, 96.47% (${\pm}0.9$) when going up stairs, and 96.37% (${\pm}1.3$) when going down stairs for given normal movement data. This makes its accuracy and stability better than that found for the principal component analysis and linear discriminant analysis methods.

A majority of piping vibration problems are induced by internal fluid pulsation; turbulent flow, vortex shedding at internal discontinuities, and pressure pulsation at equipment nozzles. The pulsation at the pressure sources resonates acoustically with the piping and the amplified pressure pulsation can generate shell mode vibration in the piping. Reheater attemperator piping supplies water from feedwater pump to reheater attemperator to control the boiler temperature. In normal operating condition, the high frequency shell mode vibration occurred in the piping with the high level of sound(105 ${\sim}$ 117 dB). The vibration sources are pressure pulsation in the pump nozzle and the frequencies are related to the blade passing frequencies. The objects of this paper are to analyze the cause of the high frequency vibration and to establish corrective actions.

Polishing a die that has free-form surfaces is a time-consuming and tedious job, and requires a considerable amount of high-precision skill. In order to reduce the polishing time and cope with the shortage of skilled workers, a user-friendly automatic polishing system was developed. The polishing system is composed of two subsystems, a three-axis machining center and a two-axis polishing robot. The system has five degrees of freedom and is able to keep the polishing tool in a position normal to the die surface during operation. A sliding mode control algorithm with velocity compensation was proposed to reduce tracking errors. Trajectory tracking experiments showed that the tracking error can be reduced prominently by the proposed sliding mode control compared to a PD (proportional derivative) control. To evaluate the polishing performance of the polishing system and to and the optimal polishing conditions, the polishing experiments were conducted.
