최근 이미지분석 기술은 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어 기술의 급격한 발전으로 인해 의학, 생물학, 지리학, 재료공학 등에서 수많은 연구 분야에서 광범위하게 활용되고 있으며, 이미지분석은 다량의 토사에 대하여 입경을 포함한 형상학적 특성을 간편하게 정량화 할 수 있기 때문에 매우 효과적인 분석 방법으로 판단된다. 현재 모래의 입도분석 방법으로는 신뢰성 있는 체가름 시험법(KSF2302) 등이 있으나, 번거로운 처리과정과 많은 시간이 소요된다. 또한 입자형상은 입경이 세립 할수록 직접 측정이 어렵기 때문에, 최근에는 이미지 분석을 이용하는 방법이 시도되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 75㎛ 이상의 조립질 하상 토사 이미지를 취득하여, 입자들의 장·축단 길이, 면적, 둘레, 공칭직경 및 종횡비 등의 형상학적 특성인자를 자동으로 측정하는 프로그램 개발을 수행하였다. 프로그램은 이미지 분석에 특화된 라이브러리인 OpenCV(Open Source Computer Vision)를 적용하였다. 이미지 분석 절차는 크게 이미지 취득, 기하보정, 노이즈제거, 객체추출 및 형상인자 측정 단계로 구성되며, 이미지 취득시 패널의 하단에 Back light를 부착해 시료에 의해 발생되는 음영을 제거하였다. 기하보정은 원근변환(perspective transform)을 적용했으며, 노이즈 제거는 모폴로지 연산과 입자간의 중첩으로 인한 뭉침을 제거하기 위해 watershed 알고리즘을 적용하였다. 최종적으로 객체의 외곽선 추출하여 입자들의 다양한 정보(장축, 단축, 둘레, 면적, 공칭직경, 종횡비)를 산출하고, 분포형으로 제시하였다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 이미지분석을 적용한 토사의 형상학적 특성 측정 방법은 시간과 비용의 측면에서 보다 효율적으로 하상 토사에 대한 다양한 정보를 획득 할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

We demonstrate a compact optical coherence tomography(OCT) system based on the optical fiber delay line controlled by a cylindrical piezo-electric transducer(PZT). An 18-m length of single mode fiber is wrapped under constant tension around a PZT. Approximately 134 windings are used. Wraps of the long length of fiber allow the small expansion of the PZT to be magnified to an optical path length delay of 0.78 m. The OCT system shows characteristics for 2-dimensional imaging, exhibiting 96.9dB of signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), $18.6{\pm}0.5\;{\mu}m$ of axial resolution, and $5\;{\mu}m$ of lateral resolution with samples.

The purpose of this study is to provide the basic data useful in designing apparel patterns for aged abdominal obese women. The body measurements of 318 women were taken at random, whose ages were over 60 and fields of action were colleges, sports centers, or business sites in Seoul and the neighboring districts. A total of 33 features in the upper body and lower body were used fer the anthropometric measurement and analysis using anthropometry. The collected measurement data were processed statistically using the SPSS 12.0 program for technical statistical analysis, t-test, frequency analysis, correlation analysis. The results of the study are as follows. 1. Subjects were classified into two groups as a result of analysis for measurement data. It was revealed that 251(about 79 percent) women of total subjects(n=318) have a characteristic of abdominal obese body type and elderly women of these group usually had big abdomen rather than hip. The criteria of abdominal obesity based on waist-hip ratio, WHR(=0.85). 2. Aged abdominal obese women have shown much larger size in most body measurements except items of some vertical length, such as bust ponit-bust point, font interscye, back interscye with circumference and depth of armscye, bust, waist, abdomen and hip while showing no difference in height, biacrominal breadth, hip width, neck shoulder point to breast point, crotch length. 3. Vervaeck index(=100.1) and Rohrer index(=1.7) indicated that the abdominal obese women were fat in overall body. And aspect ratio of waist(=0.86), abdomen(=0.92) and hip(=0.75) also appeared high that the shape of cross sections in those regions was similar to a figure of circle 4. In view of the correlation coefficient between hip circumference and the rest measurement items, and between hip circumference inclusively of the abdomen protrusion and the rest measurement items, there were found some differences for each group. In case of Group (abdominal obese group), the former is smaller than the other. 5. In case of Abdominal obese women, hip circumference inclusively of the abdomen protrusion is more mutually related to the rest items related to make apparel pattern as waist circumference, depth of armscye and so on than what hip circumference is. This result indicated which must be considered hip circumference inclusively of the abdomen protrusion to make apparel patterns for abdominal obese women unlike women of common body types.

발의 구조는 사람에 따라 약간의 차이를 보이기는 하나 일반적으로 중앙을 기준으로 할 때 비대칭적(Asymmetric)인 구조를 보인다. 특히 동양인의 경우, 비대칭성에 의한 발의 좌우 편차는 서양인에 비해 큰 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 발 길이 뿐만 아니라 발 둘레, 발 높이, 볼 거스(Ball girth) 등을 고려할 경우 발의 형태는 더욱 다양해지며, 이를 고려한 족형의 개발은 신발 설계에 있어서 필수적으로 요구된다 하겠다. 이 논문은 전국 남녀 8000명의 좌, 우 발의 각 25개 부위 측정한 후 전문가들의 조언을 통해 가장 구두골 제작에 영향을 주리라 생각되는 발의 10개 중요 부위를 이용하여 현재 단순히 유아용, 아동용, 학생용, 성인용으로 구분되어진 구두치수를 Classification 기법을 사용하여 연령별로 적절하게 구분되어 구두를 개발할 수 있도록 하였다.

In this study, the combustion characteristics were investigated with the variation of design factors on multiple slit gas burner. The design factors consist of slit height, width, spacing, and inner length. The combustion characteristics were made analysis of the CO emission and NOx emission by using CO analyzer and NOx analyzer. The lower perimeter to area and the narrow spacing extends the lift-flame limit. The CO emission increases with the increasing perimeter to area ratio at the same condition. The NOx emission is found to be less significant with the port perimeter to area ratio. The flame interference might highly depend on the spacing and port perimeter to area ratio, and it also affects the burner performance.

A novel impedance model is proposed fur the rectangular power plane along with the analytic impedance expression derived from it. The power plane is modeled as a section of a rectangular waveguide with appropriate boundary conditions around its periphery. As a result, the derived impedance expression based on the proposed model has the one-dimensional series form, which is simpler and computationally more efficient than the existing formula based on cavity model of the power plane.

This study investigates experimentally evaporation characteristics of nanofluid droplets containing 50 nm alumina($Al_2O_3$) particles and the wettability changes on a hydrophilic glass surfaces. From the captured digital images by using a CMOS camera and a magnifying lens, we examined the effect of particle concentration on droplet evaporation rate which can be indirectly deduced from the measured droplet volumes varying with time. In particular, with the use of a digital image analysis technique, the present study measured droplet perimeters and the contact angles to study the wetting dynamics during evaporating process. In addition, we compared the measured total evaporation time with theoretically estimated values. It was found that as the volume fractions of nanofluid increased, the total evaporation time and the initial contact angles decreased, while the droplet perimeters increased.

A splint is one of assisting devices for the disabled with hemiplegia or contracture and is manually made by an experienced expert. Heated thermoplastic materials are continuously fitted to the affected part. This traditional method has a possible risk of low-temperature burn, quality variance of the splint due to the proficiency of maker. etc. While various approaches has been made using 3D printing technology in order to redeem those disadvantages, they still carry high cost issues with 3D scanners or accuracy issues with manual measurement. This research begins with symmetrical characteristics of human body and focuses on the preliminary study for the possibility of splint manufacturing with 3D printing technology based on geometric characteristics of unaffected arm. 3D right and left forearm models of healthy male adults were created by photogrammetry software and a series of digital images in order to measure the circumference and cross-sectional area of the forearm models at every 20mm from the elbow. The circumference and cross-sectional area showed tolerable levels of differences between both sides within subjects; The circumference and cross-sectional area showed very strong correlations between both sides within subjects. From these findings, the possibility of splint manufacturing with 3D printing technology could be confirmed based on the geometric characteristics of unaffected side.

Although the vector map data possesses much higher values than other types of multimedia, the data copyright and the protection against illegal duplication are still far away from the attention. This paper proposes a novel watermarking technique which is both robust to diverse attacks and optimized to a vector map structure. Six approaches are proposed for the design of the watermarking algorithm: point-based approach, building a minimum perimeter triangle, watermark embedding in the length ratio, referencing to the pixel position of the watermark image, grouping, and using the one-way function. Our method preserves the characteristics of watermarking such as embedding effectiveness, fidelity, and false positive rate, while maintaining robustness to all types of attack except a noise attack. Furthermore, our method is a blind scheme in which robustness is independent of the map data. Finally, our method provides a solution to the challenging issue of degraded robustness under severe simplification attacks.

In this paper, we propose an optimal interest point extraction method to support shape-base image classification and indexing for image database by applying a dynamic threshold that reflects the characteristics of the shape contour. The threshold is determined dynamically by comparing the contour length ratio of the original shape and the approximated polygon while the algorithm is running. Because our algorithm considers the characteristics of the shape contour, it can minimize the number of interest points. For n points of the contour, the proposed algorithm has O(nlogn) computational cost on an average to extract the number of m optimal interest points. Experiments were performed on the 70 synthetic shapes of 7 different contour types and 1100 fish shapes. It shows the average optimization ratio up to 0.92 and has 14% improvement, compared to the fixed threshold method. The shape features extracted from our proposed method can be used for shape-based image classification, indexing, and similarity search via normalization.
