  • As the performance of processors improves, cache memories are used to overcome the difference of speed between processors and main memories. Generally cache memories are embedded and small sizes, fault coverage is a more important factor than test time in testing point of view. A new test algorithm and a new BIST architecture are developed to detect various fault models with a relatively small overhead. The new concurrent BIST architecture uses the comparator of cache management blocks as response analyzers for tag memories. A modified scan-chain is used for pre-testing of comparators which can reduce test clock cycles. In addition several boundary scan instructions are provided to control the internal test circuitries. The results show that the new algorithm can detect SAFs, AFs, TFs linked with CFs, CFins, CFids, SCFs, CFdyns and DRFs models with O(12N), where N is the memory size and the new BIST architecture has lower overhead than traditional architecture by about 11%.

  • BIST architecture and circuit design are presented for the self-test of various datapath megacells including embedded SRAM, barrel shifter, adder and multiplier. The BIST architecture is composed of VCO, ROM, comparator and otehr control logic to measure the megacell' performance up to 300MHz. PC interface and control logic are also implemented to perform the manual testing of each megacell with various test patterns. The control logic was designed using VHDL and its circuit is synthesized using Synopsys for $0.6\mu$ 1-poly, 3-matal CMOS technology.

  • In this study, the creep behaviors of amorphous steel fiber-reinforced concrete were investigated. Two different types of tests were carried out to evaluate the effect of amorphous steel fibers on the creep of concrete: compressive creep test and tensile creep test. Fiber volume fractions used in the test were 0.2% and 0.4% for tensile specimens, and 0.2% and 0.3% for compressive specimens. Based on the test results, the addition of fiber volume fraction of 0.2% into concrete could significantly reduce both compressive and tensile creep.

  • As demands for high speed sea transportations have recently been increased, various high speed ships appear. Among them the WIG is believed to be one of the next generation of the sea transportation system. Test flight of the 20 seaters WIG craft, Haenarae-X1, developed by MOERI was a success in August, 2007. Development of the large WIG is now ongoing, and it is expected to be commercialized in the near future. In this study we designed a remote controled WIG Craft and carried out its performance test in order to establish engineering design procedures of an Unmanned WIG (U-WIG) craft.

  • As the increasing integrity of VLSI, the BIST(Built-In Self Test) is used as an effective method to test chips. Generally the pseudo-random test pattern generation is used for BIST. But it requires too many test patterns when there exist random This paper proposes and presents a new efficient network architecture for Reflective Memory System (RMS). A time to copy shared-data among nodes effects critically on the entire performance of the RMS. In this paper, the recent researches about the RMS are investigated and compared. The device named Topology Conversion Switch(TCS) is introduced to realize the proposed network architecture. One of the RMS based industrial control networks, Ethernet based Real-time Control Network (ERCnet), is adopted to evaluate the performance of the proposed network architecture for RMS.

  • In order to develop the compatible damping device in various vibration source, a hybrid wall-type damper combining slit and friction damper in parallel was developed. Cyclic loading tests and two-story RC reinforced frame tests were performed for structural performance verification. As a result of the 5-cyclic loading test according to KBC-2016 and low displacement cyclic fatigue test, The hybrid wall type damper increased its strength and the ductility was the same as that of the slit damper. In addition, As a result of the two-layer frame test, the reinforced frame had about twice the strength of the unreinforced frame, and the story drift ratio was satisfied to Life Safety Level.

  • This paper introduces adaptive PRML (Partial Response Maximum Likelihood) architecture with PR (a,b,c,d,e) channel type for the improved readability of high-density optical discs with capacity greater than 30GB. The proposed PRML architecture consists of an adaptive equalizer, a Viterbi detector and a channel identifier. Detailed description for each component is included. The architecture is implemented in chip and also confirmed its performance on the test board mounting the chip. Test results show that the proposed 5-tap PRML architecture is well operated, and less than $2{\times}10^{-4}$ of BER (Bit Error Rate) is achieved with radial and tangential tilt margin of ${\pm}0.6^{\circ}$ on self-made 30GB BD at 1x speed.

  • In this study, a method of electrochemical consolidation is applied. This method utilizes electro-osmosis, which is an effective ground improvement technique for soft clays, and soil treatment using lime, which is the oldest traditional soil stabilizer. The mechanism of lime treatment for soil involves cation exchange, which leads to the flocculation and agglomeration. Five representative laboratory tests-an electro-osmotic test and four electrochemical tests with various proportions of lime-were performed on dredged marine clay. The objectives of this study are to investigate the effect of electrochemical treatment and to determine the optimum dose for optimal consolidation performance of dredged marine clay. The results show that a better consolidation effect was achieved in terms of current, temperature, and vane shear strength by using electrochemical treatment. The best results were observed for the electrochemical test using 4% lime content.
