In the present study, 2-D gas-kinetic flow solver on unstructured meshes was developed for flows from continuum to transitional regimes. The gas-kinetic BGK scheme is based on numerical solutions of the BGK simplification of the Boltzmann transport equation. In the initial reconstruction, the unstructured version of the linear interpolation is applied to compute left and right states along a cell interface. In the gas evolution step, the numerical fluxes are computed from the evaluation of the time-dependent gas distribution function around a cell interface. Two-dimensional compressible flow calculations were performed to verify the accuracy and robustness of the current gas-kinetic approach. Gas-kinetic BGK scheme was successfully applied to two-dimensional steady and unsteady flow simulations with strong contact discontinuities. Exemplary hypersonic viscous simulations have been conducted to analyze the performances of the gas-kinetic scheme. The computed results show fair agreement with other standard particle-based approaches for both continuum part and transitional part.

Cognitive radio has been attracting increased attention as an effective approach to improving spectrum efficiency. One component of cognitive radio, spectrum sensing, has an important relationship with the performance of cognitive radio. In this paper, after a summary and analysis of the existing spectrum-sensing algorithms, we report that the existing eigenvalue-based semi-blind detection algorithm and blind detection algorithm have not made full use of the eigenvalues of the received signals. Applying multi-antenna systems to cognitive users, we design a variety of spectrum-sensing algorithms based on the joint distribution of the eigenvalues of the received signal. Simulation results validate that the proposed algorithms in this paper are able to detect whether the signal of the primary user exists or not with high probability of detection in an environment with a low signal-to-noise ratio. Compared with traditional algorithms, the new algorithms have the advantages of high detection performance and strong robustness

In this paper, we present a new watermarking algorithm in which a watermark is created based on the energy of the original image and embedded into the image by replacement. The watermark is adjusted to have a certain proportional amount of energy based on one of the original image and embedded into the DFT magnitude component replacing original coefficients. This scheme reduces degree of quality degradation in a watermarked image by maintaining energy and strengthen robustness against attacks by embedding a strong watermark. From the result of experiment, we confirmed that the proposed algorithm had high invisibility of 47.6dB of PSNR and could reconstruct 98.9% of message on average.

The design of hydraulic & control system has been developed for the disc spinning machine. The hydraulic system has been designed in the overall system including the vertical & horizontal slide fur spinning works which are controlled by hydraulic servo valves in right & left side, and the clamping slide for holding & pressing blank material in center during spinning process. Based on the design concept of this hydraulic system, model test experiments for hydraulic servo control system is tested to conform confidence and applying possibility. The control system is introduced with the fuzzy-sliding mode controller for the hydraulic force control reacting force as a disturbance, because a fuzzy controller does not require an accurate mathematical model for the generation of nonlinear factors in the actual nonlinear plant with unknown disturbances and a sliding controller has the robustness & stability in mathematical control algorithm. We conform that the fuzzy-sliding mode controller has a good performance in force control for the plant with a strong disturbance. Also, we observe that a steady state error of the fuzzy-sliding mode controller can be reduced better than those of an another controllers.

As a computer has been continuously progressed to reduce R&D time and cost, the study of the flow physics has been significantly relied on the numerical method. Recently, Large Eddy Simulation(LES) has been widely used in CFD community to accurately capture the turbulent flows. The LES code requires high accuracy in time, as well as in space. Also, it should have strong robustness to ensure the convergence in various complicated flows. The objective of the present work is to develop a base code for LES simulation, having 2$^{nd}$ order accuracy in time and 4$^{th}$ order accuracy in space. To achieve the present objective, the four-step fractional step method was enhanced by adopting compact Pade'scheme. The standard Smagorinsky model was implemented for the first stage of the present code development. The flows over a cylinder and an airfoil were successfully simulated. and an airfoil were successfully simulated.

Experimental analyses on the solder joint reliability of plastic ball grid array under harsh random vibration were presented. The chips were assembled on the daisy chained circuit boards for the test samples preparation, half of which were processed for underfill to investigate the underfill effects on the solder failures. Acceptance and qualification levels were applied for the solder failure tests, and the overall controlled RMS of the power spectrum densities of the steps were 22.7 Grms and 32.1 Grms, respectively. It was found that the samples survived without any solder failure during the tests, demonstrating the robustness of the packaging structure for potential avionics and space applications.

The aim of this study is to determine the outbreaks of nontoxic Gonyaulax polygramma Stein in Yeosu waters in place of harmful Cochlodinium polykrikoides Margalef, which has occurred annually in the same region since 1995. The observation of cellular arrangement and structure by electron microscopy showed that G. polygramma isolated from Yeosu waters had a few spines connecting with membranes and prominent longitudinal ridges on the cell surface, with a cingular displacement 1.5 times their cell width. Furthermore, the location of the nucleus was posterior of large oval formation according to electron microscopy. On 6 August, 2004, the first bloom of G. polygramma occurred, the date of its disappearance was with a maximum cell density of 8,000 cells $ml^{-1}$ on 21 August, 2004. During the period of this study, the horizontal distribution of sea water temperature and salinity showed a strong coastal front, whereas the front of DIN (Dissolved Inorganic Nitrogen) was significantly different between the occurrence and disappearance of G. polygramma blooms. These results suggested that the process of the breakdown of stratification by wind and a low level of inorganic nitrogen play important roles in the rapid growth of G. polygramma, which is associated with a greater robustness in growth against DIN than that of C. polykrikoides in nature.

In this paper, a supervised adaptive equalization algorithm based on probability density function (PDF) matching method is introduced and its decision-feedback version is proposed for underwater communication channels with strong impulsive noise and severe multipath characteristics. The conventional least mean square (LMS) algorithm based on mean squared error (MSE) criterion has shown to be incapable of coping with impulsive noise and multipath effects commonly shown in underwater communications. The linear PDF matching algorithm, which shows immunity to impulsive noise, however, has revealed to yield unsatisfying performance under severe multipath environments with impulsive noise. On the other hand, the proposed nonlinear PDF matching algorithm with decision feedback proves in the simulation to possess superior robustness against impulsive noise and multipath characteristics of underwater communication channels.

Recently, mass spectrometers are widely used for in-situ chemical analysis. It has rapid response and high sensitivity. In this paper, we present the fabrication and test of a cold cathode emitter for micro mass spectrometer using CNTs(Carbon nano tubes). The CNTs have good mechanical, electrical and chemical characteristics. So they have a long life time and strong robustness. The micro mass spectrometer is composed of the glass substrate and the silicon substrate. The glass substrate is constructed by electrodes for TOF(Time-of-flight) which analyze an ion with mass to charge ratio as ion separator. The silicon substrate is highly doped wafer which is patterned for gate electrode and then 100 11m dry etching to grow the CNTs as the electron emitter. The CNTs are grown by HFCVD(Hot filament chemical vapor deposition) with sputtering the catalyst. We successfully attained to grow the CNTs and to test the characteristics.
