The ignition characteristics of a $CH_4$/hot air counterflow diffusion flame were investigated numerically using a flame-controlling continuation method. For the chemical reactions, the GRI-v1.2 reaction mechanism was used in the simulation. The maximum flame temperature was presented in the space of the inverse global strain rate, and showed S-curve-type behavior. The flame temperatures and velocities of the upper and middle branches were compared for different global strain rates. In addition, the global strain rate was compared with the local strain rates defined at the flame surface and the boundaries of the fuel and oxidizer sides of the fuel/air mixing layer. These local strain rates correlated well with the global strain rate.

Spatio-temporal join operators are essential to the management of spatio-temporal data such as moving objects. For example, the join operators are parts of processing to analyze movement of objects and search similar patterns of moving objects. Various studies on spatio-temporal join queries in outdoor space have been done. Recently with advance of indoor positioning techniques, location based services are required in indoor space as well as outdoor space. Nevertheless there is no one about processing of spatio-temporal join query in indoor space. In this paper, we introduce continuous spatio-temporal self-join queries in indoor space and propose a method of processing of the join queries over stream data of moving objects. The continuous spatio-temporal self-join query is to update the joined result set satisfying spatio-temporal predicates continuously. We assume that positions of moving objects are represented by symbols such as a room or corridor. This paper proposes a data structure, called Candidate Pairs Buffer, to filter and maintain massive stream data efficiently and we also investigate performance of proposed method in experimental study.

This study presents the kinematics of an intrinsic continuum robot actuated by pneumatic artificial muscles. The single section of a developed continuum robot consisted of three muscles in parallel. The contraction of each muscle according to applied air pressure produced spatial motions of a distal plate with respect to a base plate. Based on the bending behaviors of artificial muscles, the orientation and position of the end-effector of a continuum robot were formulated using a transformation matrix. The orientation and position was also determined for a single section of the distal plate. A Jacobian matrix relating the contraction rate or the pressure rate of the muscles to the velocity vector of the end-effector was calculated considering the assembled position of actuators between neighboring sections of the robot. Experimental results showed that the motions of the intrinsic continuum robot were accurately estimated by the proposed kinematics.

석석탄가스화 기술은 고온, 고압 조건에서 미분탄과 산소의 가스화 반응에 의해 CO와 $H_2$가 주성분인 합성가스를 제조하는 기술로서 차세대 화력발전 뿐만아니라 다양한 화학원료 제조를 위한 분야에서 각광을 받고 있다. 또한, 가스화 기술은 향후 CCS기술, CTL(Coal To Liquid, 석탄액화)기술, SNG(Synthetic Natural Gas, 합성천연가스)생산, 수소생산, 각종 화학원료 생산 등과 연계가 가능한 미래 석탄이용 분야의 핵심 기술이라 할 수 있다. 따라서, 고등기술연구원에서는 이러한 석탄가스화를 통해 양질의 합성가스를 제조하기 위한 기술 개발의 일환으로 pilot급 고온, 고압 건식 분류층 가스화기, 기류수송 방식의 미분탄공급장치, 수냉자켓 구조의 합성가스 냉각장치, 합성가스 중 분진제거를 위한 금속필터 장착 집진장치 등을 연계하여 20기압의 고압 조건에서 장시간 연속운전을 진행하였다. 본 연구에서는 미분탄 공급을 위하여 상부공급 버너를 적용하였고 석탄가스화기는 $1,300{\sim}1,350^{\circ}C$ 정도의 온도에서 운전을 진행하였으며 미분탄을 75 kg/h의 조건에서 연속적으로 공급하였다. 그리고, 이러한 조건에서 5.5일 정도의 연속운전을 진행하는 동안 CO 44~48%, $H_2$ 20~21%, $CO_2$ 4~5% 조성의 석탄 합성가스를 $200Nm^3/h$ 안정적으로 제조할 수 있었다.

최근 음성인식의 인식 단위로서 문맥의존 음향 모델이 널리 사용되고 있다. 이는 음소의 음향학적 특징, 즉 선행 및 후행음소에 의한 중심 음소의 변이음 모델이 문맥독립 모델보다 좀 더 정확하게 모델링 될 수 있기 때문이다. 하지만 강건한 문맥의존 음향 모델을 작성하기 위해서는 모델 파라미터의 병합(tying)과 미지의 문맥(unseen context)의 처리를 위한 좀더 정교한 해결 방법이 필요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이점을 고려하여 음향학적 특징과 언어학적 특징을 결합하여 상태 분할을 수행할 수 있도록 SSS(Successive State Splitting) 알고리즘의 문맥 방향 상태 분할에 음소결정트리를 접목한 HM-Net(Hidden Markov Network) 구조 결정법을 도입하였다. 또한 HM-Net은 연속적인 상태 분할에 의해 한국어에서 많이 발생하는 변이음들을 효과적으로 모델링 할 수 있다는 점을 고려하여 본 연구실에서 기존에 사용하던 48 유사음소 단위에서 문맥의존 음향 모델 작성에 불필요한 변이음을 제거하여 39 유사음소 단위를 재 정의하였다. 도입한 방법과 새로 정의한 유사음소 단위의 유효성을 확인하기 위해 고립 단어, 4연속 숫자음, 연속 음성인식에 대해 인식 실험을 수행한 결과, 모든 실험에서 재 정의한 39 유사음소 단위가 문맥종속형 HM-Net 음향모델을 이용한 한국어 음성인식에 효과적임을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히 연속 음성인식 실험의 경우, 기존의 48 유사음소 단위보다 평균 $15.08\%$의 인식률 향상이 있었다.

We have investigated the output power performance of a continuous-wave chromium-doped YAG laser ($Cr^{4+}$:YAG laser), pumped by a Nd: YAG laser. With an output coupler of 1% transmission, we obtained as much as 400 mW of the average output power at 1.450 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The power slope efficiency of 8%, when the gain medium was cooled to 2$0^{\circ}C$. We tuned the wavelength of the $Cr^{4+}$:YAG laser, at pump power of 6 W, by using birefringent filter. As a result, lasing wavelength was tuned from 1.399 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 1.532 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, with the maximum output power of 340 mW at 1.4903 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and the linewidth was 0.21 nm.

This paper proposes for practical engineers a lightweight modeling and simulation environment for continuous system models specified in ordinary differential equations, which are time-domain specification of such systems. We propose a block-oriented specification formalism that has two levels: one for atomic behavior and the other the structure of models. Also we provide with a simulation framework, called BlockSim++, which make models specified in the block-oriented formalism be easily translated in object-oriented program that runs with the proposed simulation framework. The proposed formalism and framework has advantage of reuse such that it can be easily integrated into application programs and heterogeneous simulators. We illustrates the usefulness of the proposed framework by a simple hybrid modeling simulation example.

A three-dimensional(3D) equivalent continuum modeling was performed to analyze hydraulic behavior of rock mass considering discontinuities by using DFN model and smeared fracture model. DFN model was generated by FLAC3D and smeared fracture model was applied by using FISH functions, which is built-in functions in FLAC3D, for equivalent continuum model of fractured rock mass. Comparative analysis with 3DEC, which is for discontinuum analysis, was conducted to verify reliability of equivalent continuum analysis by using FLAC3D. Similar results of hydraulic analysis under the same conditions could be achieved. Equivalent continuum analysis of fractured rock mass by using DFN model was implemented to compare with existing analytical methods for inflow into the tunnel.

River cross-section measurement data is one of the most important input data in research related to hydraulic and hydrological modeling, such as flow calculation and flood forecasting warning methods for river management. However, the acquisition of accurate and continuous cross-section data of rivers leading to irregular geometric structure has significant limitations in terms of time and cost. In this regard, a primary objective of this study is to develop a methodology that is able to measure the spatial distribution of continuous river characteristics by minimizing the input of time, cost, and manpower. Therefore, in this study, we tried to examine the possibility and accuracy of continuous cross-section estimation by estimating the water depth for each cross-section through multiple linear regression analysis using RGB-based aerial images and actual data. As a result of comparing with the actual data, it was confirmed that the depth can be accurately estimated within about 2 m of water depth, which can capture spatially heterogeneous relationships, and this is expected to contribute to accurate and continuous river cross-section acquisition.

This paper is concerned with anisogrid composite lattice structures whose load bearing shell is formed by systems of geodesic unidirectional composite ribs made by automatic wet winding process. Lattice structures are usually made in the form of conical shell and consist of systems of helical and hoop ribs fabricated by continuous filament winding from carbon and epoxy composites. Design variables of the structure which are the angle of helical ribs and ribs spacings are determined by cone geometry and geodesic line. and Fabrication methods for the conical composite lattice structure are presented.
