For the propagation of elastic waves in unbounded domains, absorbing boundary conditions at the fictitious numerical boundaries have been proposed. In this paper we focus on both first and second order paraxial boundary conditions(PBCs) in the framework of variational approximations which are based on paraxial approximations of the scalar and elastic wave equations. We propose a penalty function method for the treatment of PBCs and apply these into finite element analysis. The numerical verification of the efficiency is carried out through comparing PBCs with Lysmer-Kuhlemeyer's boundary conditions.

2-3nm의 공간분해능을 갖는 전자에너지손실분광법(Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy, EELS)을 이용하여, 전기적 특성조사된 YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$ 고온초전도체 쌍결정의 결정경계(grain boundary)에서 산소의 조성변화를 조사하였다. Misorientation angle이 $14^{\circ}$, $28^{\circ}$,$ 30^{\circ}$인 3개의 쌍결정 중에서 Josephson junction 특성을 보인 $28^{\circ}$ 및 $30^{\circ}$결정경계에서의 oxygen 1s absorption edge는 결정내부에서의 oxygen 1s absorption edge와 매우 다름을 알 수 있었다. 이는 결정경계에서의 산소조성이 결정내부에 비해 낮음을 의미하며, 그 영역이 결정경계 부근 20-40nm로, coherence length에 비해 큼을 알 수 있다. 반면에, flux pinningxmr성을 보인 $14^{\circ}$결정경계에서의 oxygen 1s absorption edge는 결정내부에서와 별 차이를 보이지 않았다. 따라서 일반적으로 관찰되어온, misorientation angle이 큰 결정경계에서의 Josephson junction 특성은 결정경계 부근에서 산소의 조성이 낮아지는데에 기인하며, 그 원인은 결정경계면을 통해 산소가 out-diffusion되기 때문인 것으로 생각된다.

Establishment of limits and names for oceans and seas is necessary for a safety of navigation. Even if there are no national and international standard for the delimitation of sea boundaries, we can take guidelines for the delimitation of sea boundaries through the analysis of IHO official publications, Limits and Names for Oceans and Sea; S-23. This paper shows the changes of the spatial limit of seas since first edition publication, and the standards for a delimitation of oceans and seas were analyzed using S-23 4th edition draft(2002) in terms of physical geographic features. The generic terms of S-23 include Ocean, Sea, Channel, Passage, Strait, Sound, Gulf, Bay and Bight, and each generic term shows hierarchical structures. Several seas show different characteristics compared with definitions of IHO dictionary. Sea boundaries are delimited by longitude and latitude, cape, river mouth, sandbar, and so on. Undersea features such as a shelf, trench, trough, rise, bank and reef are also important features for delimitation of sea boundary. Especially, seas that are delimited by undersea feature are mainly located Arctic and Southern ocean area in S-23 4th edition. Advanced knowledge of marine science with a technical advance might affect to delimit for sea boundary.

Seismic modeling is used to simulate wave propagation in the earth. Although the earth's subsurface is usually semi-infinite, we cannot handle the semi-infinite model in seismic modeling because of limited computational resources. For this reason, we usually assume a finite-sized model in seismic modeling. In that case, we need to eliminate the edge reflections arising from the artificial boundaries introducing a proper boundary condition. In this study, we changed three kinds of boundary conditions (sponge boundary condition, Clayton and Engquist's absorbing boundary condition, and Higdon's transparent boundary condition) so that they can be applied in elastic wave modeling for anisotropic media. We then apply them to several models whose Poisson's ratios are different. Clayton and Engquist's absorbing boundary condition is unstable in both isotropic and anisotropic media, when Poisson's ratio is large. This indicates that the absorbing boundary condition can be applied in anisotropic media restrictively. Although the sponge boundary condition yields good results for both isotropic and anisotropic media, it requires too much computational memory and time. On the other hand, Higdon's transparent boundary condition is not only inexpensive, but also reduce reflections over a wide range of incident angles. We think that Higdon's transparent boundary condition can be a method of choice for anisotropic media, where Poisson's ratio is large.

The Korean polysemic ending '-(eu)lgeol' can has two different meanings, 'guess' and 'regret'. These are expressed by different boundary-tone types: a rising tone for guess, a falling one for regret. Therefore the sentence-final boundary-tone type is the most salient prosodic feature. However, besides tone type, the pitch difference between the final and penultimate syllables of '-(eu)lgeol' can also affect semantic discrimination. To investigate this aspect, we conducted a perception test using two sentences that were morphologically and syntactically identical. These two sentences were spoken using different boundary-tone types by a Korean native speaker. From these two sentences, the experimental stimuli were generated by artificially raising or lowering the pitch of the boundary syllable by 1Qt while fixing the pitch of the penultimate syllable and boundary-tone type. Thirty Korean native speakers participated in three levels of perceptual test, in which they were asked to mark whether the experimental sentences they listened to were perceived as guess or regret. The results revealed that regardless of boundary-tone types, the larger the pitch difference between the final and penultimate syllable in the positive direction, the more likely it is perceived as guess, and the smaller the pitch difference in the negative direction, the more likely it is perceived as regret.

A beam supported by a flexible elastic support is commonly used as structural elements, e.g., braced beam, railway track, etc. The elastic support can be located in arbitrary point in the cross-section. This paper investigates the effects of support eccentricity on the elastic buckling of beams with elastic supports. The effects of stiffness of the elastic support are also studied. A beam element with elastic supports and the analysis program are developed for elastic buckling analysis using finite element formulation. The elastic support is modeled by elastic spring element. Using the offset technique, the eccentricity of support is taken into account. A beam element having 14 degrees of freedom including the warping degree of freedom is used. Various numerical example analyses show that the present formulation and analysis program accurately and effectively compute the buckling load and mode of beams with elastic supports.

While this paper will be of interest to Convergence of Knowledge and Border Thinking, one of my main concerns has been to open the world of mind. Because the convergence of knowledge and border thinking are closely related to the problems of mind. It should be clear from this procedure that the scope of this study is limited. It is not intended to be a definitive account of all problems of mind, bur rather a clear and thorough account of that segment of mind that pertains to an analysis of convergence of knowledge and border thinking. This claim, with their supporting arguments, will be discussed as follow; 1. What our knowledge has been for? 2. Knowledge and convergence of knowledge 3. How is the convergence of knowledge made up? 1) meeting at border 2) mind as a border 3) converging at mind.

The Joint Coastal Guard System is composed of a maritime surveillance system and a anti-coastal infiltration system, and is a system in which the Navy is mainly responsible for the maritime and the Army is responsible for the coast. We analyzed the operations effectiveness of the joint coastal guard system, in which various weapon systems of the army and navy are operated in a complex way, to the extent to which successful operation is possible against small targets. The operations effectiveness analysis was conducted by defining the operations effectiveness by operation type, configuring the simulation environment using METT-T elements, establishing the assumptions of the simulation scenario, conducting the simulation and analyzing the simulation results by weather condition. The simulation tools used were NORAM and EADSIM. As a result of the operations effectiveness analysis, the joint coastal guard system currently in operation showed a significant difference in operational success depending on the size of the target and weather conditions. This research can be used as useful data for establishing an effective joint coastal guard system and conducting systematic guard operations.

DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) 변환은 MPEG과 JPEG 표준에 의하여 영상이나 비디오 영상을 압축하는데 사용되어져 왔다. 본 연구에서는 이상적인 경계가 관련된 특성을 유도하고, 실시간 처리를 위하여 모델에 바탕을 둔 DCT 영역에서의 불연속 경계 평가 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 방향 검증과 위치 정렬 등의 평가로 구성된다. 두 가지의 평가 방법에 의하여 경계의 다양한 방향과위치를 알 수 있으며, DCT 계수들을 표준화된 형식으로 정렬시킬 수 있고, 표준화된 DCT 계수에서 이상적인 계단 경계의 특성과 비교하여 경계의 크기를 산출할 수 있다. DCT 계수가 8x8의 블록 단위로 이루어져 있어 경계의 표현이 조밀하지는 않지만 처리 시간이 빠르고 잡음에 강한 특성을 가지고 있어 다양한 실시간 응용분야에 사용될 수 있을 것이다.
