The present study examined the effects of various guide fin structures and boundary parameters on the thermal performance of heat exchangers used in heat recovery thermoelectric generators. The heat transfer rate and pressure drop of the heat exchangers without fins, with circular fins, with triangular fins, and with combined circular and triangular fins were simulated numerically using ANSYS 19.1 commercial code to confirm the effect of the guide fin structures. The heat transfer rate of the heat exchanger with combined fins was 27.0%, 5.2%, and 1.5% higher than those without fins, with circular fins, and with triangular fins, respectively. The pressure drop characteristic of the heat exchanger with the combined fins was 28.3% higher than that without fins but 9.2% and 10.5% lower than those with circular fins and with triangular fins, respectively. The heat exchanger with combined fins as the optimal model showed the highest heat transfer rate of 5664.9 W and pressure drop of 1454.02 Pa for highest hot gas temperature, maximum flow rates of hot gas and coolant, and lowest coolant temperature.

In this Paper, we propose a new motion search algorithm called CDTS (Cross-Diamond-Triangle Search algorithm) that uses optimal search pattern according to the position of a search area to improve the performance of CDS(Cross-Diamond Search algorithm) as well as CDHSs(Cross-Diamond-Hexagonal Searches algorithms). We analyze motion distributions in various test video sequences to apply optimal search pattern according to a position of search area. Based on the result of this analysis, we propose a new triangle-shaped search pattern whose structure is asymmetric while previous search patterns are generally symmetric in conventional algorithms. In CDTS, we apply cross- and diamond-shaped search patterns to central search areas, and triangle- and diamond-shaped patterns to the other areas. Applying CDTS to test video sequences, the proposed scheme can reduce search points more than CDS and CDHSs by 16.22$\%$ and 3.09$\%$, respectively, without any visual quality degradation.

This paper addresses a new triangulation method for constructing surface model from a set of wire-frame contours. The most important problem of contour triangulation is the branching problem, and we provide a new solution for the double branching problem, which occurs frequently in real data. The multiple branching problem is treated as a set of double branchings and an algorithm based on contour merging is developed. Our double branching algorithm is based on partitioning of root contour by Toussiant's polygon triangulation algorithml[14]. Our double branching algorithm produces quite natural surface model even if the branch contours are very complicate in shape. We treat the multiple branching problem as a problem of coarse section sampling in z-direction, and provide a new multiple branching algorithm which iteratively merge a pair of branch contours using imaginary interpolating contours. Our method is a natural and systematic solution for the general branching problem of contour triangulation. The result shows that our method works well even though there are many complicated branches in the object.

This paper proposes a new composite deckplate system reinforced with inverted triangular truss girders(called 'D Deck'), which does not require the use of temporary supports at construction stage. The proposed system retains increased stiffness and strength while keeping the absolute floor height change to a minimum level and can be utilized as floor systems of various types beam members such as the conventional wide-flange and U-shaped composite beams. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed system, five specimens with a span of 5.5 m were fabricated and tested under field loading conditions consisting of several intermediate steps. The load-deflection curves of each specimen were plotted and compared with the nonlinear three-dimensional finite element analysis results. The comparison showed that the effective load sharing between the truss girders and floor deck occurs and the maximum deflection under construction stage loading is well below the limit estimated by the provisions in Korea Building Code.

In this paper, we used various shear deformation functions for modelling isotropic, symmetric composite and sandwich plates discretized by a mixed finite element method based on the Lagrangian/Hermite interpolation functions. These shear deformation theories uses polynomial, trigonometric, hyperbolic and exponential functions through the thickness direction, allowing for zero transverse shear stresses at the top and bottom surfaces of the plate. All shear deformation functions are compared with other available analytical/3D elasticity solutions, are predicted the reasonable accuracy for investigated problems. Particularly, The present results show that the use of exponential shear deformation theory (Karama et al. 2003; Aydogu 2009) provides very good solutions for composite and sandwich plates.

In this paper, a new meshfree technique which improves the numerical integration accuracy is introduced. This new method called thc Petrov-Galerkin natural clement method(PG-NEM) by authors is based on the Voronoi diagram and the Delaunay triangulation which is based on the same concept used lot conventional natural clement method called the Bubnov-Galerkin natural element method(BG-NEM). But, unlike the BG-NEM, the test basis function is differently chosen, based on the concept of Petrov-Galerkin, such that its support coincides exactly with a regular integration region in background mesh. Therefore, it is expected that the proposed technique ensures the remarkably improved numerical integration accuracy in comparison with the BG-NEM.

To improve the problem of strength reduction of unary and binary blended non-cement concrete that occur at room temperature, comparative analysis was conducted based on the slump and compressive strength properties of ternary blended non-cement concrete in which cement was replaced with silica fume, fly ash, and blast furnace slag, and the following conclusions were drawn. The ternary blended non-cement concrete showed higher compressive strength than binary binder concrete, and the slump reduction was less when 10% silica fume was mixed. In addition, the appropriate composition ratio range of each by-product was suggested according to slump and compressive strength level based on ternary diagram.

This paper addresses the consensus problem for nonlinear multi-agent systems using observer based controller. In order to solve this problem, the high gain approach is combined with the previous low gain controller. Also, it is shown that the proposed observer based controller can always guarantee the consensus of nonlinear systems with lower triangular nonlinearity.

본 논문에서는 음성 인식률 향상을 위한 여러 가지방법들 중에서 음성특징 파라미터 추출 방법에 관한 한가지 방법을 제시하였다. 본 논문에서는 청각 특성을 기반으로 한 MFCC(met frequency cepstrum coef-ficients)와 성능 향상을 위한 방법으로 GFCC (gamma-tone filter frequency cepstrum coefficients)를 제시하고 음성 인식을 수행하여 성능을 분석하였다. MFCC에서 일반적으로 사용하는 임계 대역 필터로 삼각 필터(triangular filter) 대신 청각 구조의 기저막(basilar membrane)특성을 묘사한 gammatone 대역 통과 필터를 이용하여 특징 파라미터를 추출하였다. DTW 알고리즘으로 인식률을 분석한 결과 삼각 대역 필터를 이용한 것보다 gammatone 대역 통과 필터를 이용한 추출법이 약 2∼3%의 성능 향상을 보였다.
