Recently microscale biofluid flows have been receiving large attention in various research areas. However, most conventional imaging techniques are unsatisfactory due to difficulties encountered in the visualization of microscale biological flows. Recent advances in optics and digital image processing techniques have made it possible to develop several advanced micro-PIV/PTV techniques. They can be used to get quantitative velocity field information of various biofluid flows from visualized images of tracer particles. In this paper, as new advanced micro-PIV techniques suitable for biofluid flow analysis, the basic principle and typical applications of the time-resolved micro-PIV and X-ray micro-PIV methods are explained. As a 3D velocity field measurement technique for measuring microscale flows, holographic micro-PTV method is introduced. These advanced PIV/PTV techniques can be used to reveal the basic physics of various microscale biological flows and will play an important role in visualizing veiled biofluid flow phenomena, for which conventional methods have many difficulties to analyze.

Two multichannel analysis of surface wave (MASW) surveys were conducted over a soil site in Tacoma Water's Green River Facility, Washington, where construction of a chemical treatment facility had been planned. The purpose of the surveys was to compare soil stiffness characterized by shear-velocity (Vs) distribution before and after Deep Dynamic Compaction (DDC) operation that was designed to improve the soil stiffness. Site soil consisted of very heterogeneous gravel and cobbles in a sand-and-silt matrix. Results from each survey are represented by two 2-D Vs maps delineating Vs variation of soil below the surveyed lines. One map was constructed from those dispersion curves that were analyzed with a significant amount of subjective judgment involved, whereas the other map was constructed from those dispersion curves analyzed with as much objective information as possible. Comparison of 2-D Vs maps indicates that Vs actually decreased after the DDC operations, possibly due to the loss (or reduction) of cohesive bonding between soil particles caused by the compaction operations.

In this paper, an adaptive formation control based on the leader-following approach is proposed for multiple mobile robots with time varying parameters. The proposed controller does not require the velocity information of the leader robot, which is commonly assumed that it is either measured or telecommunicated. In order to estimate time varying velocities of the leader robot, the smooth projection algorithm is employed. From the Lyapunov stability theory, it is proved that the proposed control scheme can guarantee the uniform ultimate boundedness of error signals of the closed-loop system. Finally, the computer simulations are performed to demonstrate the performance of the proposed control system.

The dispersion characteristics of tape meander line were analyzed by electromagnetic field theory. The several different tape meander lines were photoetched on copper printed-bakelit substrate, and these tape meander line structures were inserted into the X-band waveguide. Phase bridge method was used for the dispersion characteristics measurement of meanderline. The measured. results were plotted on diagram(Brillouin diagram) and compared with theoretical values. Measured results were consistent with theoretical Values. But, on the measured diagram, passband midfrequency was lower than theoretical value. It was believed that the discrepancy was due to the backelite loading. The group velocity of stagger tuned meander line was higher than that of uniform meander live, and the freqnency band of constant group velocity of stagger tuned meanderline was sider than that of uniform meander line.

A measurement technique of the surface generation velocity S$_o$ using the BC(buried channel) MOS structure with shallow and low doped channel layer (BC MOS S$_o$ measurement technique) is presented and verified analytically and experimentally. Using this measurement technique, S$_o$ can be measured more accurately than that measured using the gate-controlled diode SS1oT measurement technique. When S$_o$ is measured for the two techniques from a BC MOS structure test patten with gate length of 171$\mu$m, the results are 0,66cm/sec and 0.28cm/sec for the former and the latter respectively.

Si와 InAs 두 가지 채널 물질을 가지고 3가지 수송 방향 <100>, <110>, <111>으로 변화시키며 각각의 Nanowire nMOSFETs을 가지고 ballistic quantum transport simulation을 진행하였다. 각각의 경우에 대해 E-k curve를 구한 다음에 band curvature로 캐리어의 유효질량을 계산하고, 이를 통해 MOSFET의 전류 세기를 결정짓는 DOS와 carrier injection velocity를 구하여 어떤 경우에 가장 높은 ON-current를 흐르게 하는지 확인해 보았다. 하지만 예상과 달리 나노와이어의 직경이 1.4nm으로 매우 작기 때문에 valley-splitting이 일어나 Si<110>의 경우에 가장 작은 캐리어 유효 질량을 갖고 있는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 결론적으로 Si<100>의 경우에 trade-off 관계에 있는 DOS와 carrier injection velocity가 6가지 경우 중 최적의 조합을 가짐으로써 가장 높은 ON-current를 흐르게 하였다.

본 연구는 타원형 물체가 유체 중에서 침강할 때 물체의 형상과 밀도에 따른 침강특성을 분석하는 것이며, 이로 인해 종단속도에 미치는 영향을 평가하는 것이다. 복잡한 형태의 물체를 타원기둥으로 단순화하였고, 낮은 Reynolds 수(=0.5~100)에 대하여 연구를 진행하였다. 또한 침강형태가 종단속도에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 수치해석 검증을 통해 정확하고 효율적인 격자 크기를 결정하였다. 정확한 분석을 위해 단순히 종단속도의 변화를 본 것이 아니라 진동하지 않은 물체의 이론적 속도와 비교하여 이와 얼마나 차이가 있는지를 확인하였다. 수치해석 결과 장단축비에 따라 물체의 침강특성이 크게 변하였고 그 경향은 밀도비에 따라 다른 양상을 보였다. 또한 각의 진동에 대한 진폭과 진동수가 물체의 침강속도에 영향을 주는 것을 확인하고 그 원인에 대해서도 연구하였다.

Flame propagation characteristics of propane-air mixtures were experimentally investigated in constant-volume combustion chambers. Flame propagation process was observed as a function of mixture strength, initial mixture temperature and initial mixture pressure in quiescent mixtures. A cylindrical combustion chamber and a spherical combustion chamber contain a pair of parallel windows through which optical access into the chamber can be provided. Laser two beam deflection method was adopted to measure the local flame propagation, which gave information on the flame size and flame propagation speed. Pressure development was also measured by a piezoelectric pressure transducer to characterize combustion in quiescent mixtures. Burning velocity was calculated from flame propagation and pressure measurements. The effect of flow on flame propagation was also investigated under flowing mixture conditions. Laser two beam method was found to be feasible in measuring flame propagation of quiescent mixtures. Flame was observed to propagate faster with higher initial mixture temperature and lower initial pressure. Combustion duration was shortened in the highly turbulent flowing mixtures.

For this study we used a CCD video camera to capture the pavement image information via the computer. During investigation processing, the CCD video camera captured 10${\sim}$30 images per second. If the vehicle velocity is too fast, the collected images will be duplicated and if the velocity is too slow there will be a gapped between images. Therefore, in order to control the efficiency of the image grabber we should add accessory tools such as the Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) and odometer. Furthermore, Kalman Filtering can also solve these problems. After the CCD video camera captured the pavement images, we used the Least-Squares method to eliminate images of gradation which have non-uniform surfaces due to the illumination at night. The Fuzzy Entropy method calculates images of threshold segments and creates binary images. Finally, the Object Labeling algorithm finds objects that are cracks or noises from the binary image based on volume pixels of the object. We used these algorithms and tested them, also providing some discussion and suggestions.
