In this study, two viable measures of mean length and cumulative thickness of sand layers as important spatial statistics responsible for optimal SAGD (Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage) location for oil sand development were compared. For the comparisons, various deposits composed of sand and clay media were realized using a geostatistical simulator and the extent of steam chamber is simulated using multiphysics numerical simulator (dualphase flow and heat transfer). Based on the spatial statistics of each realization and the corresponding size of simulated steam chamber, the representativeness of two candidate measures (cumulative thickness and mean length of permeable media) were compared. The results of the geostatistical and SAGD simulations suggest that the mean length of permeable media is better correlated to the size of steam chamber than the cumulative thickness. Given those two-dimensional results, it is concluded that the cumulative thickness of the permeable media alone may not be a sufficient criterion for determining an optimal SAGD location and the mean length needs to be complementarily considered for the sound selections.

Purpose: Measurement of the horizontal and vertical prism diopter was investigated which was occurred due to distance differences between the optical inter-centeral distance (OC) and the interpupillary distance (PD) of the prescribed glasses. Methods: We surveyed 96 subjects (192 eyes) at the average age of 21.56 years old. The PD was measured by using the PD measurement system (DONGYANG PD-85, Korea), and the OC of the glasses was measured by using the projective peak refractive power measurement system (TOPCON CL-200, Japan). The OH value was measured by using Penlight and the PD ruler. Results: The PD which had been measured by the PD system and the OC of the glasses revealed 78.1% of differences. 62.5% of the objects were base-in value prescribed glasses; 58.3% were out of permissible error. Only 8 subject showed concurrence between the prescribed glasses and the OH value, and 82.3% of the objects were induced vertical prism of over 1 (prism diopter). Conclusions: In order to improve the vision function of people who wear glasses, it is necessary to advance the accuracy of PD, OH measurement and making glasses as well.

Purpose of this study was a development of an image processing algorithm to recognize paprika and acquire it's 3D coordinates from stereo images to precisely control an end-effector of a paprika auto harvester. First, H and S threshold was set using HSI histogram analyze for extracting ROI(region of interest) from raw paprika cultivation images. Next, fundamental matrix of a stereo camera system was calculated to process matching between extracted ROI of corresponding images. Epipolar lines were acquired using F matrix, and $11{\times}11$ mask was used to compare pixels on the line. Distance between extracted corresponding points were calibrated using 3D coordinates of a calibration board. Non linear regression analyze was used to prove relation between each pixel disparity of corresponding points and depth(Z). Finally, the program could calculate horizontal(X), vertical(Y) directional coordinates using stereo camera's geometry. Horizontal directional coordinate's average error was 5.3mm, vertical was 18.8mm, depth was 5.4mm. Most of the error was occurred at 400~450mm of depth and distorted regions of image.

Occurring forest fire or burning bushes beneath overhead transmission lines have caused breakdown disturbances of the system in many countries. In this study, experiments for flashover characteristics in the simulated condition of vertical power lines were conducted so as to investigate the reduction in insulation strength caused by combustion flame. As the results of an experimental investigation, it is demonstrated that flame can reduce breakdown voltages of the model lines according to height(h) of flame. The breakdown voltages were decreased with decreasing the height(h) of flame it can be seen that the average reduction of flashover levels, in comparison with the no-flame case, are 46.2[%] for h=9[cm] and 62.5[%] for h=3[cm] when ac voltage is applied.

A direct photograph measurement technique was used to determine the spatial distribution of the spray droplet diameter in subsonic crossflow and it also obtain that SMD distribution by using PLLIF technique. The injector internal flow was classified as three modes such as a normal, cavitation, and hydraulic flip. The objectives of this research are getting a droplet distribution and drop size measurement of normal flow and compare with the other flow effects. Although the study showed visually that drop size were spatially dependent of Air-stream velocity, fuel injection velocity, and normalized distance from the injector exit length.(x/d, y/d) There are also difference characteristics between cavitation, hydraulic flip and the normal flow.

Loss of permanent molar by multiple dental caries traumatic influence or hereditable disease can cause loss of the vertical dimension in children. However traditionally reconstructive treatment to restore vertical dimension in children has been provided by using simple methods such as celluloid crown form and stainless steel crown. The presented case report describes an alternative treatment modality of vertical dimension by using removalbe appliance This appliance is made with average of facial height and maximal clenching force by using T-scan.

본 연구에서는 개수로 흐름에서의 오염물질 거동 특성에 대해 분석하였다. 이를 위해 개수로 흐름을 등류상태로 가정하여 3차원의 수직모형을 구성하고 운동량 방정식과 스칼라 수송방정식에서의 난류 폐합을 위해 레이놀즈응력 모형 및 GGDH 모형을 사용하였다. 개발된 모형을 이용하여 복단면 수로에서 오염물질이 점으로 주입된 경우에 대해 난류 흐름 및 오염물질의 농도 분포를 수치모의 하고 기존의 실험 데이터와 비교하였다. 그 결과 개발된 모형이 개수로 흐름에서의 평균유속 및 난류구조, 오염물질의 농도 분포 등을 잘 모의하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 이차흐름의 영향으로 인해 최대 농도 값의 위치가 거리에 따라 이동하는 것으로 나타났으며, 농도 분포 역시 정규분포에서 거리에 따라 점차 왜곡되는 것으로 확인되었다.

A field experiment with microplots(D.20cm, L. 85cm) was conducted to obtain quantitative information on the downward movement of nutrients applied to the soils by different amount of irrigation water. The microplots were installed by embedding PVC column(D. 20cm, L. 90cm) filled with sieved soils in the field. Urea, fused and superphosphate, and KCl were broadcasted over the soil in the microplots and surface layer was covered with lime-amended soils. Microplots were removed 1 week after water application and analysed for Cl, $NH_4$ and $NO_3-N$, Bray 1-P and exchangeable cations of Ca, Mg, and K in each segment. Effect of irrigation rate on the movement of these ions were evaluated with the mean downward movement(MDM) determined with nutrient concentration of each segment and the distance to the segment from the site fertilized. For the nutrient studied, MDM was linearly related to the amount of water applied. When one pore volume of water needed for 0.1 bar soil moisture tension was applied, MDM(cm), computed as the piston front of applied water advanced 10cm, was found to be in the order; Cl, 7.52>Inorganic N, 6.03> K, 3.50> Mg, 2.69>Ca, 1.19>P, 0.29. After the downward movement of applied nutrients soil pH seemed to decrease with irrigation in the surface layer(0-15cm) and increase in the subsurface layer. It was also found that ammonium-nitrogen evolved from urea hydrolysis was more effective in raising the subsoil pH rather than the exchangeable Ca and Mg.

In this paper, we propose a search method for time sequences which supports the normalized distance as a similarity measure. In many applications where the shape of the time sequence is a major consideration, the normalized distance is a more suitable similarity measure than the simple Lp distance. To support normalized distance queries, most of the previous work has the preprocessing step for vertical shifting which normalizes each sequence by its mean. The proposed method is motivated by the property of sequence for feature extraction. That is, the variation between two adjacent elements of a time sequence is invariant under vertical shifting. The extracted feature is indexed by the spatial access method such as R-tree. The proposed method can match time series of similar shape without vertical shifting and guarantees no false dismissals. The experiments are performed on real data(stock price movement) to verify the performance of the proposed method.
