In the modeling processes of 3D computer animation, methods to build optimal work conditions to realize real forms for more efficient works have been advanced. Digital sculpting software, published in 1999, ZBrush has been positioned as an essential factor in character model work requiring of realistic descriptions through different manufacturing methods from previous modeling work processes and easy shape realization. Their functional areas are expanding. So, in this production case paper, as a method to product more optimized animation character models, the efficiency of production method linking digital sculpting software (Z-Brush) and animation production software (Maya) was deliberated and its consequences and implications are suggested. To this end, first the technical features of polygon modeling and Retopology were reviewed. Second, based on it, the efficiency of animation character modeling work processes through step linking ZBrush and Maya suggested in this paper was analyzed. Third, based on the features drawn before, in order to prove the hypothesis on modeling optimization method suggested in this paper, the production process of character Dumvee from a short animation film, 'Cula & Mina' was analyzed as an example. Through this study, it was found that technical approach easiness and high level of completion could be realized through two software linked work processes. This study is considered to be a reference for optimizing production process of related industries or modeling-related classes by deliberating different modeling process linked systems.

In case of estimation of settlement for the piled-raft foundation, it is necessary to consider interaction among raft, piles and soil. But, simple analytic methods usually are not applicable to considering this complicated interaction. In this study, a computer-based approximate analytic method, HDPR, was developed in consideration of above mentioned interaction in order to analysis of settlement for the piled-raft foundation. The finite element method was applied to raft analysis by means of the Mindlin plate theory, and soil and piles were modeled as springs which were connected with their raft. The linear spring which can consider multi layered soil and the non-linear spring were applied to soil springs and pile springs, respectively. The raft-piles-soil interaction was reflected to each spring. In order to verify the developed analytic method, it was compared and analyzed with 3D FEM analysis, existing approximate analytic method and site monitoring data. As a result, the developed analytic method showed reasonable results of settlement estimations of raft and piles for each case. From a practical point of view, it is confirmed that this analytic method is able to apply for analysis and design of the piled-raft foundation.

컴퓨터 생성 홀로그램(CGH: computer generated hologram) 기법은 기존의 광학계 장치와 변수들을 수학적으로 모델링하여 일반 범용 컴퓨터(PC: personal computer)로도 디지털 홀로그램을 생성할 수 있는 기술이다. 이 기술은 디지털 홀로그램의 해상도와 3D 물체의 광원 수에 따라 알고리즘의 연산량이 좌우되기 때문에, 실용적인 사용을 위해서 알고리즘의 연산량을 낮추거나 하드웨어의 연산 속도를 높이는 연구가 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 초다광원 3D 물체의 디지털 홀로그램을 고속으로 생성할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법은 한 개의 서버 PC와 다수의 클라이언트 PC들로 구성되어 있으며, 이들은 일반적으로 사용되는 범용 GPU (graphic processing unit)가 장착되어 있다. 서버에서 3D 물체의 광원을 스캔하여 데이터화 하고, 클라이언트 PC들의 연산 능력에 따라 광원 데이터를 분할하여 클라이언트들에게 각각 전송한다. 각각의 클라이언트들은 전송받은 데이터를 이용해 다중 GPU 기반의 CGH 연산을 수행하여 간섭 패턴들을 생성하고, 생성된 패턴들은 다시 서버 PC로 재전송된다. 서버 PC로 재전송 된 패턴들이 하나로 누적되면 디지털 홀로그램이 생성된다. 본 실험에서, 기존의 방법으로는 139,655개의 광원에 대해 $1,024{\times}1,024$ 해상도의 홀로그램을 생성하는데 약 2,250 ms가 걸린 반면, 제안하는 방법은 약 478 ms의 속도로 생성할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) has been used for decades as it provides sound semantics for hierarchical modular specification of discrete event systems. Instead of the mathematical specification, the DEVS diagram, based on the structured DEVS formalism, has provided more intuitive and convenient representation of complex DEVS models. This paper proposes a clean room process for implementation and verification of a DEVS diagram model specification into a simulation software source code. Specifically, it underlies a sequence of transformation steps from conformance and integrity checking of a given diagram model, translation into a corresponding tabular model, and finally conversion to a simulation source code, with each step being inversely verifiable for traceability. A simple example helps developers to understand the proposed process with associated transformation methods; a case study shows that the proposed process is effective for and adaptable to practical simulation software development.

Both feasibility and accuracy of lumped approach to group 12 organic compounds in mixtures into a fewer number of pseudocompounds in sorption processes were evaluated using mixtures containing organic compounds with various physicochemical properties and low-surface-area mineral sorbents. The lumped approach for sorption to simulated mineral sorbents was developed by cluster analysis from statistics. Using the lumped approach, the sorption estimated from both reduced number of pseudocompounds and their sorption parameters (i.e., $K_f$, n) can approximate sorption behavior of complex organic mixtures. Additionally, the pseudocompounds for various mixtures to different types of low-surface-area mineral sorbents can be estimated a priori from the physicochemical properties of organic compound (i.e., ${\gamma_w}^{sat}$). Therefore, the lumped approach may help to simplify the complex fate and transport model of organic contaminant mixtures, reduce experimental efforts, and yet provide results that are statistically identical for practical purposes. Further research is warranted to enhance the accuracy of lumped approach using the multiple regression analysis considering the H-bonding capacity, site concentrations, functional groups for mineral sorbents.

In this study, computational structural dynamic analyses of a gyrocopter have been conducted considering unsteady dynamic hub-loads due to rotating blades. 3D CATIA models with detailed mechanical parts we constructed and virtually assembled into the complete aircraft configuration. The dynamic loading generated by rotating blades in the forward flight condition are calculated by a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code such as FLUENT. Modal based transient and frequency response analyses are used to efficiently investigate vibration characteristics of the gyrocopter. Free vibration analysis results for different fuel and pilot conditions, frequency responses and transient responses for critical flight conditions are also presented in detail.

A practical statistical approach that can be used to model various sources of uncertainty systematically is presented in the context of reliability analysis of slope stability. New expressions for probabilistic characterization of soil properties incorporate sampling and measurement errors, as well as spatial variability and its reduced variance due to spatial averaging. The stochastic nature of seismic loading is studied by generating a large series of hazard-compatible artificial motions, and by using them in subsequent response analyses. The analyses indicate that in a seismically less active region such as the Korean Peninsular, a moderate variability in soil properties has an effect as large as the characterization of earthquake hazard on the computed risk of slope failure and excessive slope deformations.

A conventional sliding mode control approach is often impractical or difficult when it is applied to high order process b because the number of tuning parameters in the sliding mode controller increases with the order of the plant. C Camacho(l996) proposed a design method of a fixed structure sliding mode controller based on a first order plus dead t time approximation to the higher-order process. But, his method has such problems as chattering, over‘shoot, and c command following due to the Taylor the approximation en‘ors for the time delay term of the first order model. In this p paper, a new design technique for a sliding mode controller based on the modified Taylor approximation considered a w weight is developed to improve the Camacho's problems.

The purpose of this study is to present a qualitative research method for extracting and analyzing the comments written by YouTube video users. To do this, we used YouTube users' feedback to measure the hedonic, social, and utilitarian gratification of use and gratification theory(UGT) through by using analysis and topic modeling. The result of the measurement found that the first reason why users watch the trot singer, Cho Myung-sub's video in the KBS Korean broadcasting channel is to achieve hedonic gratification with high frequency. In word-document network analysis, the degree of centrality was high in words, such as 'cheering', 'thank you', 'fighting', and 'best'. Betweenness centrality is similar to the degree of centrality. Eigenvector centrality also shows that words such as 'love', 'heart', and 'thank you' are the most influential words of users' opinions. The results of the centrality analysis present that the majority of video users show their 'love', 'heart' and 'thank you' for the video. it indicates that the high words in centrality analysis is consistent with the high frequency words of hedonic and social gratification dimension of the UGT. The study has research methodological implication that shed light on the motivations for watching YouTube videos with UGT using text mining techniques that automate qualitative analysis, rather than following a survey-based structural equation model.

In this paper, we propose an analysis of recent trends in the NFT (Non-Fungible Token) industry using topic modeling techniques, focusing on their universal application across various industrial fields. For this study, patent data was utilized to understand industry trends. We collected data on 371 domestic and 454 international NFT-related patents registered in the patent information search service KIPRIS from 2017, when the first NFT standard was introduced, to October 2023. In the preprocessing stage, stopwords and lemmas were removed, and only noun words were extracted. For the analysis, the top 50 words by frequency were listed, and their corresponding TF-IDF values were examined to derive key keywords of the industry trends. Next, Using the LDA algorithm, we identified four major latent topics within the patent data, both domestically and internationally. We analyzed these topics and presented our findings on NFT industry trends, underpinned by real-world industry cases. While previous review presented trends from an academic perspective using paper data, this study is significant as it provides practical trend information based on data rooted in field practice. It is expected to be a useful reference for professionals in the NFT industry for understanding market conditions and generating new items.
