The energy consumed by compressor in gas turbine is equivalent to $30\sim50\%$ of energy produced by turbine and, therefore, research on reducing compression work is important in increasing the efficiency of gas turbine. One of the method to reduce the compression work is to inject small water droplets into the compressor. This method decreases the compression work by decreasing the compressor exit temperature through the evaporation of water. Researches on wet compression, up to now, are focused on thermodynamic analysis of wet compression where the decrease of exit flow temperature and compression work is demonstrated. This paper presents an thermodynamic and aerodynamic analysis of wet compression in centrifugal compressor for microturbine.

This paper is to investigate the mechanical characteristics of light-weighted soils (LWS) consisting of expanded polystyrene(EPS), dredged clays and cement by using both uniaxial and triaxial compression tests. The mechanical characteristics of the compressive strength of LWS are analysed with varying initial water contents of dredged clays, EPS ratio, cement ratio, and curing stress. In the triaxial compression state, it is found that the compressive strength of LWS containing EPS is independent on the effective confined stress. As the EPS ratio decreases($A_E$<2%) and cement ratio increases($A_c$>2%), the behavior characteristics of triaxial compressive strength-strain relationship is similar to that of cemented soil which decreases rapidly in compressive strength after ultimate compressive strength. For the applications of LWS to ground improvements which require the compressive strength of up to 200kPa, the optimized EPS ratio and initial water content of dredged clay are estimated to be 3~4% and 165~175%, respectively. Also, the ultimate compressive strength under both triaxial test and uniaxial compression states are almost constant for a cement ratio of up to 2% and then critical cement ratio of this LWS shall be 2%.

An experimental study has been performed to investigate the correlation on compressor discharge temperature of capacity modulated system A/C in cooling mode. Indoor and outdoor temperatures, the cooling capacity, compressor discharge temperature and loading time are measured by the psychrometric calorimeter. The system is controlled by applying the scroll compressor operated by PWM valve and loading duty. With decreasing outdoor temperature, the cooling capacity increases. But, with decreasing indoor temperature, it decreases. According to the increase in outdoor temperature and loading duty, compressor discharge temperature increases. From these experimental data, the correlation on compressor discharge temperature is proposed. The correlation obtained from the present study is agreed with the experimental data within $3^{\circ}C$.

Uniaxial compression tests for ultra-high performance hybrid steel fiber reinforced concrete (UHPC) were performed to evaluate the compressive behavior of UHPC. The UHPC for testing contains hybrid steel fibers with a predetermined ratio using a length of 19 mm and 16 mm straight typed steel fibers. Test parameter was determined as a fiber volume ratio to investigate the effect of fiber volume ratio on the strength and secant modulus of elasticity. Test results showed that the compressive strength and elastic modulus of UHPC increased with increasing the fiber volume ratio. Based on the test results, the compressive strength and modulus of elasticity equations were proposed as function of the compressive strength of unreinforced and fiber reinforced UHPC, respectively. The simplified equations for predicting the mechanical properties of the UHPC were a good agreement with the test data. The proposed equations are expected to be applied to the SFRC and UHPC with steel fibers.

Various multimedia systems have been developed and their application areas widely proliferate. Thus, the interoperability is getting important among various networks and devices. The video transcoding is a technology to solve this interoperability problem among various coding standards. Transcoding can be defined as the conversion of one compressed coded data to another. In this paper, MPEG-2 to MPEG-4 transcoder in the spatial domain is compared with that in the DCT domain. The transcoder is very useful when a video sequence that is originally encoded for digital TV, DVD or satellite broadcasting is served in mobile environment. In order to compare two transcoders, all modules except motion compensation and down sampling are implemented identically. In addition, both transcoders do not search for motion vector. Instead, the decoded information is reused to the encoder. The experimental results show that the transcoder in the spatial domain is usually better than that in the DCT domain with respect to PSNR (Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio), bitrate and execution time.

Compression splices are required for all compression members in almost all of the floors in high-rise buildings. Therefore, a clear understanding of the behavior of compression splices can provide a rational design of compression splices. Tests of compression splices with bearing only and bond only cases were conducted to investigate the component resistance characteristics of compression splices. Test results showed that the circumferential tensile stresses induced by bearing and bond overlapped at the end of the splice length deterred bond and bearing splices from developing target splicing strength when both normal bond and bearing splices were used. In particular, the bearing strength was more significantly reduced than the bond strength since the bearing relied on the limited area near the end of the splice length. However, the strength of the normal splice was always higher than the strength of the bond only or the bearing only case. Consequently, the study results showed that splice strength in compression cannot be improved by means of removing bond or bearing. In addition, the bond strength in bond only splices was nearly same as the bond strength in tension splices and the strength increase of compression splice is attributed to end bearing only characteristic.

According to the development of medical information systems, shortened examination time per patient could increase the number of treatments, resulting in the rapid growth of the amount of medical data. Studies on how to efficiently compress and store medical text data of increasing patients are in progress. However, previous methods have the shortcoming of compressing medical text data as it is, resulting in low compression rate. This research tries to overcome the problem by using the gamma coding method which enables compression in bit unit. We propose a new compression scheme which encodes the deviations between measured values and normal range values. Furthermore, we suggest to use the previous value with the least deviation from the measurement as the standard value to encode that deviation. Even though the suggested methods are simple, they have high compression rates. Through performance evaluation, we show that the suggested methods are more efficient than the previous methods.

Detection of double compression is one of the most efficient ways of remarking the validity of videos. Many methods have been introduced to detect HEVC double compression with different coding parameters. However, HEVC double compression detection under the same coding environments is still a challenging task in video forensic. In this paper, we introduce a novel method based on the frame partitioning information in intra prediction mode for detecting double compression in with the same coding environments. We propose to extract statistical feature and Deep Convolution Neural Network (DCNN) feature from the difference of partitioning picture including Coding Unit (CU) and Transform Unit (TU) information. Finally, a softmax layer is integrated to perform the classification of the videos into single and double compression by combing the statistical and the DCNN features. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the statistical and the DCNN features with an average accuracy of 87.5% for WVGA and 84.1% for HD dataset.

Compression techniques can be applied to large-scale fingerprint systems to store or transmit fingerprint data efficiently. In this paper, we investigate the effects of FBI WSQ fingerprint image compression on the performance of a fingerprint verification system using multiple linear regressions. We propose a maximum compression using fingerprint image quality score. Based on the experiments, we can confirm that the proposed approach can compress the fingerprint images up to 3 times more than the fixed compression ratio without significant degradation of the verification accuracy.
