This paper presents the equivalent nodal load for the element stiffness which represents the influence of the stiffness change such as the addition of elements, the deletion of elements, and/or the partial change of element stiffness. The reanalysis of structure using the equivalent load improves the efficiency very much because the inverse of the structural stiffness matrix, which needs a large amount of computation to calculate, is reused in the reanalysis. In this paper, the concept of the equivalent load for the element stiffness is described and some numerical examples are provided to verify it.

Recently, Training of the convolutional neural network (CNN) entails many iterative computations. Therefore, a method of accelerating the training speed through parallel processing using the hardware specifications of GPGPU is actively researched. In this paper, the operations of the feature extraction unit and the classification unit are divided into blocks and threads of GPGPU and processed in parallel. Convolution and Pooling operations of the feature extraction unit are processed in parallel at once without sequentially processing. As a result, proposed method improved the training time about 314%.

This paper presents a design and parallel control strategy of 1.8 kW low-voltage DC-DC converter (LDC) for mild hybrid electric vehicles to improve their power density, system efficiency, and operation stability. Topology and control scheme are important on the LDC for mild hybrid electric vehicles to achieve high system efficiency and power density because of their very low voltage and large current in input and output terminals. Therefore, the optimal topological structure and control algorithm are examined, and a detailed design methodology for the power and control stages is presented. A working sample of 1.8 kW LDC is designed and implemented by applying the adopted topology and control strategy. Experimental results indicate 92.45% of the maximum efficiency and 560 W/l of power density.

Two-dimensional(2-D) fiber-optic code-division multiple-access(FO-CDMA) system utilizes the optical orthogonal signature pattern code(OOSPC) to encode and decode 2-D data. Encoded 2-D data are spatially multiplexed and transmitted through an image fiber and receiver recovers the intended data by means of thresholding process. OOSPC's construction methods based on expansion of the optical orthogonal code, which is used in one-dimensional(1-D) FO-CDMA system, are introduced. Each OOSPC's performances are compared by using the bit error rate(BER) of interfering OOSPC's of other users. From the results we verify that a balanced incomplete block design(BIBD) construction has the best performance among other mehtods. We also propose a decomposed bit-plane method for parallel transmission and recovery of 256 gray-scale images using OOSPC's constructed by the BIBD method. The simulation result encourages the feasibility of parallel transmission and recovery of multiuser's images.

Linear equations of motion for submersibles are one of the rest important design parameters, which are used as a governing equation for the shape design and the controller design. But, the estimated maneuvering coefficients in equations of motion by using empirical formulae, theoretical calculations or model tests might have some errors. Therefore the maneuvering coefficients should be verified from sea trial test. In this study, parallel extended Kalman filter method, Nelder & Mead Simplex method and genetic algorithm were applied to the parameter identification of roll maneuvering coefficients based on sea trial data. As a result, it was verified that Nelder & Mead Simplex method gave the most satisfactory results for the mathmatical models and the sea trial data used in this study.

In this paper. the pneumatic service robot with a hybrid type is developed. A pneumatic has the advantages of good compliance , high Payload-to-weight and payload-to-volume ratios. high speed and force capabilities. Using pneumatic actuators. which have low stiffness. the service robot can guarantee safety. By suggesting a new serial-parallel hybrid type for the service robot which separates into Positioning motion and orienting motion, we can achieve large workspace and high strength-to-moving-weight ratio at the same time. A sliding mode controller can be designed for tracking the desired output using the Lyapunov stability theory and structural properties of pneumatic servo systems. Through many experiments of circular trajectory. the Pneumatic service robot is evaluated and verified.

This paper describes the hardware architecture and implementation trade-offs of the Grand Alliance HDTV video encoder system. The implemented video encoder accepts video in 1125 line(30Hz) interlaced format, and produces a bit-stream compliant with the motion picture experts group version 2(MPEG-2) standards. The encoder processing includes large- area motion estimation and an advanced rate control mechanism. To keep the system complexity realizable, we adopt a fast hierarchical motion estimation method and developed its hardware architecture. Furthermore an adaptive perceptual quantization method is adopted to improve the perceptual quality. The developed system Is based on the 4-way parallel processing architecture and is implemented by using programmable IC, memory IC, and special-purpose processors such as DCT and motion estimation processors.

In this paper, test on characteristics of 3-phase line-interactive UPS system, known as delta conversion UPS system, is studied. Delta conversion UPS system is new line-interactive UPS system using two series-parallel PWM converters instead of using series inductor in conventional single conversion line-interactive UPS system. It is known that the characteristics of input and output in delta conversion UPS system is much improved by controlling source current of AC lines directly. Here the results on load test, normal/backup mode test, and normal/bypass mode test, which are very important in the test on characteristics of UPS system, is presented. And finally overall evaluation on delta conversion UPS system is given.

Real-time video multicast using a single computer system is a difficult task because capturing, compressing and delivering video causes a long delay in internetworking environments. This paper describes an implementation of the real time video multicasting server which processes video capture, compression and multicasting in parallel. This paper also presents a flow control mechanism to solve a problem caused by difference between the three tasks.
