The angular dependence (or profile) of backscattered ultrasound was measured for steel specimens with a range of surface roughness, $1{\sim}71{\mu}m$. Backscattering profiles at or near the Rayleigh angle still showed roughness dependence while the assessment of surface roughness via normal profile became impossible due to the paint layer masking the roughness. The peak amplitude directly radiated at the Rayleigh angle was proportional to the surface roughness, while the averaged peak amplitude radiated from the backward propagating Rayleigh wave, produced by reflection at a corner, was inversely proportional. In the painted specimens, the linearity of direct backward radiation with the roughness was observed even at the roughness of less than three hundredths of a wavelength, and the abnormal multiple bark reflection caused by periodic roughness disappeared.

최근 급격히 발전한 휴대폰은 다양한 기능을 가지고 있다. 그 중 디지털 카메라의 기능을 겸비한 휴대폰은 디지털 카메라의 판매량을 앞서고 있고, 메가픽셀의 고화소 디카폰의 개발로 대중화가 더욱 가속화되고 있다. 카메라폰을 응용한 연구분야로는 생체인식기술을 적용할 수 있으며, 본 논문은 제약이 많은 휴대폰 환경에서 홍채인식기술을 적용하기 위한 휴대폰 카메라로 취득된 얼굴영상에서의 눈 영역을 검출하는 방법을 제안한다. 얼굴영상에서 눈은 피부나 머리카락보다 빛에 대한 반사율이 높아 각막에 specular reflection이 생기게 되고, 동공은 눈의 다른 지역에 비해 흑화소가 많다는 특징을 가지고 있다. 이러한 두 가지 특징을 이용하여 동공 후보 영역을 선정하였고, 선정된 이진영상에서 수평 프로파일과 수직 프로파일을 적용하여 동공 후보 영역을 줄이면서 동공의 중심 위치를 검출한다. 본 연구는 휴대폰 환경을 고려하였기 때문에 최소한의 메모리 사용과 적은 연산량을 목표로 하여 눈의 위치를 검출 한다. 실험 결과, 입력 영상 내에 일정크기의 동공영역이 존재할 경우 높은 눈 영역 추출 성공률을 보이며, 본 연구에서 제안한 알고리즘을 실제 휴대폰에서 수행한 결과 평균571.6ms의 시간이 소요됨을 알 수 있었다.

This paper presents an algorithm for the automatic detection of chord names, scales and tonalities from music file, expressed in MusicXML format which has enough information to determine harmonies vertically like 4-part choir. Chord names are absolute names which can be used and analysed independently of the tonality An algorithm selecting the best chord name is described, which can decide the most appropriate one from ambiguous situations. Candidate musical scales are extracted using the notes in a given time window. The tonalities of the music are determined using the chord names and candidate scales. The final output format of the process is also MusicXML file with chord names, marked non-harmonic notes, relative harmonic symbols and tonalities.

Currently, the seismic design standards have been strengthened due to the occurrence of the Gyeongju and Pohang earthquake, and seismic performance evaluation of existing facilities is being conducted. It aims to secure a seismic performance effect during earthquakes by improving the micro-pile method, which can be constructed in limited confined places while minimizing damage to existing facilities. The improvement method is to construct all the piles in the square-tray-type plate on the top of the pile by constructing the slope pile in the form of an umbrella around the vertical pile, the main pillar. In this paper, the numerical analysis was performed to analyze the horizontal displacement behavior of an umbrella-type micropile for various real-measurement seismic waves in sandy soil. As a result of numerical analysis, the softer the ground, the better the effect of horizontal resistance of umbrella-type micropile. The horizontal displacement reduction effect was pronounced when the embedded depth was 15 m or more at the same ground strength, and it was found to be effective in earthquakes if it was settled on the ground with an N value of 30 or more. The embedded depth and horizontal displacement suppression effect of the micropile was proportional. Generally, the weaker the ground, the greater the displacement suppression effect. Umbrella-type micropile had a composite resistance effect in which the vertical pile resists the moment and inclined pile resists the axial force.

In order to develop a high performance ocean model, we used Julia, a Just-In-Time compile language, and to obtain the solution of the momentum equation, we made the code to solve the Poisson equation by the Successive Over-Relaxation method. And then we made two models to test Julia calculation codes. First, a simple channel form is modeled to test constant source/sink conditions. Second, the simplified Yellow Sea was modeled to test tidal forcing, Coriolis forces, and the effect of vertical eddy diffusivity coefficients. The model has been tested with a total of eight cases in the two scenarios. As a result of the test, the depth-averaged current speed of the three cases in Scenario 1 converged perfectly to the theoretical value, and that showed well a vertical flow velocity gradient due to the bottom friction. Also, the result of Scenario 2 represented well the amphidromic points of Yellow Sea and the tidal characteristics of mid-western and southwestern coast of Korea. Therefore, it is considered that the ocean model using Julia language has developed successfully, this suggests that the ocean model has come to the stage of successful transition from a classical compile language to a Just-In-Time compile language.

ADCP(Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler)는 유수의 흐름을 방해하지 않으면서 수중에 발사된 음파의 도플러 효과를 이용하여 3차원 유속 측정이 가능한 초음파 유량측정장비이다. 2009년부터 다양한 하천에서 ADCP 사용량이 증가하면서 ADCP를 이용한 유량측정 기법과 현장 적용상의 문제, 자료처리 과정에서의 문제점들이 발생하고 있다. 이런 문제점들을 분석한 결과 다음과 같은 사례들이 나타났다. 첫 번째 하상이 매우 불규칙한 단면의 부적절한 측정 사례, 두 번째 하안 수직벽 존재에 따른 단면의 부적절한 측정 사례, 세 번째 수심 오측이 다수 발생한 측정 사례, 네 번째 유속 프로파일 결측이 다수 발생한 측정 사례, 다섯 번째 통신문제로 인한 주기적인 결측이 발생한 측정 사례, 여섯 번째 홍수기 고농도 유사로 인해 결측이 발생한 사례, 일곱 번째 수중식생의 영향으로 수심 및 유속 프로파일 오측이 발생한 측정 사례, 여덟 번째 이동상 조건이 발생한 측정 사례 등 많은 문제들이 발생하였다. 본 연구에서는 수중식생의 영향으로 수심 및 유속 프로파일 오측이 발생하는 사례에 대해 개선할 수 있는 방안을 연구하였다. ADCP에서 수중에 발사한 음파 중 식생에 부딪친 강한 반사파의 노이즈로 side-lobe현상에 의한 오측 및 결측이 발생한다. 현재 오측 및 결측 자료는 ADCP 제조사별 자료 취득 소프트웨어의 기능에 의존 하거나, USGS의 OSW(Office of Surface Water) Hydroacoustics의 QRev를 이용하여 후처리 과정을 거쳐 측정 자료로 정리하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 노이즈로 인한 side-lobe 현상을 물리적인 방법으로 제거하기 위해 음향 녹음 과정에서 노이즈를 물리적인 방법으로 제거하는 윈드실드와 팝 필터를 고려한 ADCP필터를 개발하여 적용하였다. 이번 연구의 대상지점은 원주시(지정대교)수위관측소로 5월 이후 수중에 식생이 성장하는 지점이다. 먼저 ADCP필터를 제거한 상태에서 측정을 실시하고, 이후 ADCP필터를 장착하여 측정을 실시하였다. ADCP필터 적용의 측정성과에서는 노이즈에 의한 오측 및 결측이 다수 발생하는 것을 볼 수 있고, ADCP필터를 적용한 측정성과에서는 노이즈가 제거되어 오측 및 결측이 개선되는 결과를 볼 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 수중식생 영향으로 강한 반사파에 의한 노이즈로 side-lobe현상에 의한 ADCP측 정성과의 오측 및 결측을 ADCP필터를 적용하여 물리적인 방법으로 노이즈를 제거 할 수 있다는 결과를 얻었다.

By using an actuator disk method based flow solver, aerodynamic analysis is carried out for a dual ducted fan aircraft, which is one of the VTOL compound aircrafts, and its associated ground effect is analyzed. The characteristics and accuracy of the solver for ground effect analysis is evaluated through a comparison with the results obtained from the sliding mesh technique. The aerodynamic performance and flow field characteristics with respect to the distance from the ground are analyzed. As the ground distance decreases, the fan thrust increases, but the deterioration of total normal force and hovering flight efficiency is identified owing to the decrease in the vertical force of the duct, fuselage, and wing. By examining the flow field in the bottom of the fuselage, the ground vortices and fountain flow generated by the interaction of the fan wake and ground are identified, and their influence on the aerodynamic performance is analyzed. The strength and characteristics of outwash with respect to the ground distance and azimuth direction are analyzed through comparison/examination of velocity profile. Influence of the ground effect with respect to collective pitch angle is also identified.

The purpose of this study was to investigate influence of each file step of $ProTaper^{(R)}$ system on canal transportation. Twenty simulated canals were prepared with either engine-driven $ProTaper^{(R)}$ or manual $ProTaper^{(R)}$, Group R-resin blocks were instrumented with rotary $ProTaper^{(R)}$ and group M-resin blocks were instrumented with manual $ProTaper^{(R)}$. Pre-operative resin blocks and post-operative resin blocks after each file step preparation were scanned. Original canal image and the image after using each file step were superimposed for calculation of centering ratio The image after using each file step alld image after using previous file step were superimposed for calculation of the amount of deviation. Measurements were taken horizontally at five different levels (1 2, 3, 4 and 5 mm) from the level of apical foramen. In rotary $ProTaper^{(R)}$ instrumentation group, centering ratio and the amount of deviation of each step at all levels were not significantly different (p>0.05). In manual $ProTaper^{(R)}$ instrumentation group, centering ratio and the amount of deviation of each step at all levels except of 1 mm were not significantly different (p>0.05). At the level of 1 mn, F2 file step had significantly large centering ratio and the amount of deviation (p<0.05). Under the condition of this study, F2 file step of manual ProTaper tended to transport the apical part of the canals than that of rotary $ProTaper^{(R)}$.
