We present an efficient and robust technique to estimate the velocity of moving targets from a single SAR image. In SAR images, azimuth image shift is a well blown phenomenon, which is observed in moving targets having slant-range velocity. Most methods estimated the velocity of moving targets from the distance difference between the road and moving targets or between ship and the ship wake. However, the methods could not be always applied to moving targets because it is difficult to find the road and the ship wake. We propose a method for estimating the velocity of moving targets from azimuth differentials of range-compressed image. This method is based on a phenomenon that Doppler center frequency shift of moving target causes a phase difference in azimuth differential values. The phase difference is linearly distorted by Doppler rate due to the geometry of SAR image. The linear distortion is eliminated from phase removal procedure, and then the constant phase difference is estimated. Finally, range velocity estimates for moving targets are retrieved from the constant phase difference. This technique was tested using an ENVISAT ASAR image in which several unknown ships are presented. In the case of a isolated target, the result was nearly coincident with the result from conventional method. However, in the case of a target which is located near non-target material, the difference of the result between from our algorithm and from conventional method was more than 1m/s.

This study aimed to investigate the acoustic characteristics of emotional speech in typically developing children. Thirteen preschoolers (4-5.9 years old) and 22 school-aged children (6-9.9 years old) participated in the study. The children were asked to imitate 15 utterances based on emotional utterances representing three different emotional expressions (happy, sad, and angry). Basic measures of the frequency, intensity, and duration of emotional expressions in the children's utterances were obtained as averages. We found that both preschoolers and school-aged children differentially imitated the emotional utterances in terms of basic frequency, intensity, and duration depending on the type of emotion (happy, sad, angry). In particular, we found that school-aged children spoke more slowly than preschoolers when expressing sadness. These results suggest that preschoolers and school-aged children can express emotions by modulating vocal pitch, intensity, and duration. In addition, school-aged children tended to modulate the duration parameter of prosodic elements to express different emotions compared to preschoolers. In general, differences in duration between developing children may be influenced by the maturity of the child's speech and language development.

Travel speed is an important parameter for measuring road traffic. UTIS(Urban Traffic Information System) was developed as a mobile detector for measuring link travel speeds in South Korea. After investigation, we founded that UTIS includes some missing data caused by the lack of probe vehicles on road segments, system failures and etc. Imputation is the practice of filling in missing data with estimated values. In this paper, we suggests a new model for imputing missing data to provide accurate link travel speeds to the public. In the field test, new model showed the travel speed measuring accuracy of 93.6%. Therefore, it can be concluded that the proposed model significantly improves travel speed measuring accuracy.

In this paper, the golf club head hit the golf ball moves at a constant velocity, then move in the same direction at a constant velocity of the golf club head, the velocity of the golf ball was hitting and flying the golf ball is calculated. If velocity is different before you hit the golf ball, each of the velocity of the golf ball is calculated. The purpose of this paper is to make it easy to find out the velocity of a club's head, the mass of a golf ball, the velocity or the direction of a golf ball after impact in playing golf. The results of the experiment are represented in tables and figures. And we also propose the comparison analysis between our research and other traditional ones, the implications, and futhur studies in the future. The results of this study, unlike other studies, it was can be seen that measurements of several factors superior to the measurement of the velocity of the golf ball.

This paper presents experimental results for early-age properties of concrete such as the setting time and strength, evaluated via the ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV). Developing and using an automatically-recording monitoring system, the UPV's of mortar and concrete with various water to binder ratios (W/B) were measured during the first 24 hours. In addition, probe penetration and compression tests were conducted to measure the setting time and compressive strength, respectively. It was observed that the UPV's of mortar with high W/B remained constant during the first 6.5 hours and then abruptly began to increase at constant rates. On the other hand, the UPV of mortar with low W/B increased relatively slowly and gradually due to the setting retardation caused by the use of high range water reducing agent (HRWR). It was found that setting of concrete occurs when the UPV reaches a certain value. Moreover, it was concluded that the estimation formulas should incorporate the effects of W/B to more accurately estimate the early-age strength of concrete from the UPV.

To prevent accidents near the quay caused by a ship, ports are generally designed and constructed through navigation and berthing safety assessment. However, unpredictable accidents such as ship collisions with the quay or personal accidents caused by ropes still occur sometimes during the ship berthing or mooring process. Automatic mooring systems, which are equipped with an attachment mechanism composed of robotic manipulators and vacuum pads, are designed for rapid and safe mooring of ships. This paper deals with a displacement and velocity measurement system for the automatic mooring device, which is essential for the position and speed control of the vacuum pads. To design a suitable system for an automatic mooring device, we first analyze the sensor's performance and outdoor environmental characteristics. Based on the analysis results, we describe the configuration and design methods of a displacement and velocity measurement system for application in outdoor environments. Additionally, several algorithms for detecting the sensor's state and estimating a ship's velocity are developed. The proposed method is verified through some experiments for displacement and speed measurement targeted at a moving object with constant speed.

본 연구에서는 수치모델을 이용하여 대하천서 발생되는 조류의 공간적 농도 분포를 예측하였고, 현장실험을 통해 모델을 검증하였다. 국내하천은 다수의 지류가 본류로 유입됨에 따라 오염물질의 생산과 공급이 지속적으로 발생하고, 하천의 유로연장과 하폭에 비해 수심이 낮은 지형학적 특성을 지닌다. 따라서 지류 유입 이후 발생되는 조류의 거동 특성을 분석하기 위해 수심 적분된 2차원 이송-확산 모델을 사용하였다. 광합성 성장을 이루는 조류의 성장속도 계산을 위해 영양염류, 수온, 일사량과 수심 등을 변수로 하는 성장속도 함수들을 위의 모델과 결합하였다. 본 연구의 대상구간은 낙동강과 금호강 합류부를 포함한 강정고령보 하류 약 9.2 km 구간으로 모델 검증을 위한 현장실험을 수행하였다. 2차원 이송-확산 모델의 입력 값인 유속 및 수심을 계산하는 수리동역학 모델 검증을 위해 미국 Sontek사의 M9을 이용하여 낙동강과 금호강 각각 32개, 12개 측선에 대하여 수리량을 측정하였다. 수리량 측정결과, 금호강과 낙동강의 평균 유량은 각각 $240m^3/s$, $60m^3/s$로 측정되었고 측정된 유량을 모델의 상류단 경계조건으로 사용하여 측정 유속 및 수심과 유사한 결과를 모델로부터 취득할 수 있었다. 조류 농도 측정을 위해 독일 bbe사의 AlgaeTorch 10을 사용하였으며, 수리량 측정과 동일한 측선서 총 조류 세포수(cells/ml)를 측정하였다. 농도 측정결과, 하류로 내려감에 따라 조류의 농도가 증가하는 경향이 나타났고 금호강 합류 후 최대농도는 측정구간 최하류 우안서 4,460 cells/ml로 나타났다. 주 흐름이 발생하는 하천 중앙부에 비해 유속이 느린 하안서 상대적으로 높은 농도가 측정되었으며, 이와 같은 경향은 하류로 내려감에 따라 강하게 나타났다. 측정된 조류 농도를 이용한 2차원 이송-확산 모델 검증결과, 합류부 최상류 측선서 MAPE = 10.5 %의 최대오차가 발생하였고 최하류 측선서 MAPE = 6.7 %의 최소오차가 발생하였다. 인과 질소와 같은 영양염류의 농도가 높고 횡 방향 수온 분포가 균일한 대상구간의 특성상 영양염류 함수와 수온 함수로부터 계산된 성장속도 가중치 범위는 각각 0.8~1.0, 0.91~1.09로 공간적 변동성이 크게 나타나지 않은 반면, 수심을 변수로 하는 일사량 함수의 성장속도 가중치 범위는 0.05~1.00으로 상대적으로 매우 높은 공간적 변동성이 나타났다. 수심이 4 m 이하인 하천 양안서 0.8 이상의 가중치가 나타났으며, 수심이 7 m 이상인 하천 중앙서 0.4 이하의 가중치가 나타났다. 본 연구의 수치모의 결과, 수리동역학 모델로부터 계산된 수심이 모델 결과 값에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단된다.

This paper discusses experimental results obtained by the potentiality of cross-correlation function as a tool for analyzing propagation of wave in an aluminum and a woven glass fiber composite. Each propagated wave has its own characteristic time delay, and examination of the cross-correlation of input and output signal give the most proper wave velocity and significant path. Using the above distinctive features, we observed the propagation velocity for the aluminum alloy and a woven glass fiber composite more acurately and easily then the common methods. The fiber locations of this composite also determined by the basis of these results.
