Purpose: Thermal performance and air tightness of window are improved for the building energy efficiency. As the deteriorated houses are increased, the improve measures with low cost and easy installation are developed in the energy performance of window. Attached glazing and windbreak can be easily applied to the window with low cost. In this paper, the effect of the attached glazing and windbreak on the thermal performance and air tightness of window is analyzed as the measure to improve performance of window. Method: Thermal transmittance of glazing is evaluated through WINDOW simulation according to thickness of attached glazing and air cavity. Based on the simulation results, thermal transmittance, air tightness and condensation resistance performance of four cases are tested according to Korea standards. One type of PVC sliding double window is chosen as the specimen. For the analysis on low performance of window, the outside of window is excluded in the PVC sliding double window. Result: This study shows that thermal performance of glazing can be increased by the application of attached glazing. Furthermore, lower thermal performance of glazing can obtain the higher effect of attached glazing. The application of attached glazing and windbreak can effect on increasing thermal performance and air tightness of window.

Stereo vision is a technique extracting depth information from stereo images, which are two images that view an object or a scene from different locations. The most important procedure in stereo vision, which is called stereo matching, is to find the same points in stereo images. It is difficult to match stereo images in real time because stereo matching requires heavy calculation. In this Paper we design a digital VLSI to Process stereo matching in real time, which we call stereo image match processor (SIMP). For implementation of real time stereo matching, sliding memory and minimum selection tree are presented. SIMP is designed with pipeline architecture and parallel processing. SIMP takes 64 gray level 64$\times$64 stereo images and yields 8 level 64 $\times$64 disparity map by 3 bit disparity and 12 bit address outputs. SIMP can process stereo images with process speed of 240 frames/sec.

Turbo decoder inherently requires large memory and intensive hardware complexity due to iterative decoding, despite of excellent decoding efficiency. To decrease the memory space and reduce hardware complexity, various design issues have to be discussed. In this paper, various design issues on Turbo decoder are investigated and the tradeoffs between the hardware complexity and the performance are analyzed. Through the various simulations on the fixed-length analysis, we decided 5-bits for the received data, 6-bits for a priori information, and 7-bits for the quantization state metric, so the performance gets close to that of infinite precision. The MAX operation which is the main function of Log-MAP decoding algorithm is analyzed and the error correction term for MAX* operation can be efficiently implemented with very small hardware overhead. The size of the sliding window was decided as 32 to reduce the state metric memory space and to achieve an acceptable BER.

This paper presents design of a 40 GHz CMOS PLL frequency synthesizer for a 60 GHz sliding-IF RF transceiver. For stable locking over a wide bandwith for a injection-locked frequency divider, an inductive-peaking technique is employed so that it ensures the PLL can safely lock across the very wide tuning range of the VCO. Also, Injection-locked type LC-buffer with low-phase noise and low-power consumption is added in between the VCO and ILFD so that it can block any undesirable interaction and performance degradation between VCO and ILFD. The PLL is designed in 65 nm CMOS precess. It covers from 37.9 to 45.3 GHz of the output frequency. and its power consumption is 74 mA from 1.2 V power supply.

In this study, a numerical analysis was performed on 26 inch single and coaxial propeller using the ANSYS Fluent 19.0 Solver to analyse the effect of the distance between coaxial propellers as one of the design parameter. The Moving Reference Frame (MRF) method was used for single propeller, while the sliding mesh method was used for a coaxial propeller to analyse the flow field varying with azimuth angle. The thrust and power are decreased as the upper and lower propeller approaching each other. As H/D is increased, interference between the propellers is decreased. According to the flow field variable contour of the coaxial propeller, it appears that the change in aerodynamic performance is due to the loading effect and the tip vortex wake effect.

There are three types of noise generated inside the vehicle: BSR (Buzz, Squeak, Rattle). In this paper, we propose a classifier that automatically classifies automotive BSR noise by using features extracted from deep convolutional neural networks. In the preprocessing process, the features of above three noises are represented as noise-map using STFT (Short-time Fourier Transform) algorithm. In order to cope with the problem that the position of the actual noise is unknown in the part of the generated noise map, the noise map is divided using the sliding window method. In this paper, internal parameter of the deep convolutional neural networks is visualized using the t-SNE (t-Stochastic Neighbor Embedding) algorithm, and the misclassified data is analyzed in a qualitative way. In order to analyze the classified data, the similarity of the noise type was quantified by SSIM (Structural Similarity Index) value, and it was found that the retractor tremble sound is most similar to the normal travel sound. The classifier of the proposed method compared with other classifiers of machine learning method recorded the highest classification accuracy (99.15 %).

Need to develop human body's posture supervised robots, gave the push to researchers to think over dexterous design of exoskeleton robots. It requires to develop quantitative techniques to assess human motor function and generate the command to assist in compliance with complex human motion. Upper limb rehabilitation robots, are one of those robots. These robots are used for the rehabilitation of patients having movement disorder due to spinal or brain injuries. One aspect that must be fulfilled by these robots, is to cope with uncertainties due to different patients, without significantly degrading the performance. In this paper, we propose chattering free sliding mode control technique for this purpose. This control technique is not only able to handle matched uncertainties due to different patients but also for unmatched as well. Using this technique, patients feel active assistance as they deviate from the desired trajectory. Proposed methodology is implemented on seven degrees of freedom (DOF) upper limb rehabilitation robot. In this robot, shoulder and elbow joints are powered by electric motors while rest of the joints are kept passive. Due to these active joints, robot is able to move in sagittal plane only while abduction and adduction motion in shoulder joint is kept passive. Exoskeleton performance is evaluated experimentally by a neurologically intact subjects while varying the mass properties. Results show effectiveness of proposed control methodology for the given scenario even having 20 % uncertain parameters in system modeling.

In this paper, a geometric nonlinear analysis procedure of the beam-column element including multi-noded cable element in extension of companion paper (Kim et al., 2005) is presented. First, a stiffness matrix was derived about the beam-column element that considers the second effect of the initial force supposing the curved shape at each time-step, with Hermitian polynomials as the shape function. Second, the multi-noded cable element was also subjected to the tangent stiffness matrix. To verify the geometric nonlinearity of this newly developed multi-noded cable-truss element, the Innovative Prestressed Support (IPS) system using this theory was analysed by geometric nonlinear method and the results were compared with those produced by linear analysis.

This paper is about the digital image decimation algorithm which generates a value of decimated element by an average of a target pixel value and a value of neighbor intelligible element to adaptively reflect the merits of ZOD method and FOD method on the decimated image. First, a target pixel located at the center of sliding window is selected, then the gradient amplitudes of its right neighbor pixel and its lower neighbor pixel are calculated using first order derivative operator respectively. Secondly, each gradient amplitude is divided by the summation result of two gradient amplitudes to generate each intelligible weight. Next, a value of neighbor intelligible element is obtained by adding a value of the right neighbor pixel times its intelligible weight to a value of the lower neighbor pixel times its intelligible weight. The decimated image can be acquired by applying the process repetitively to all pixels in input image which generates the value of decimated element by calculating the average of the target pixel value and the value of neighbor intelligible element.
