In this paper, we proposed a new method of the large capacity steganography using adaptive threshold on bit planes. Applying fixing threshold, if we insert information into all bit planes, all bit planes showed different image quality. Therefore, we first defined the bit plane weight to solve the fixing threshold problem. We then proposed a new adaptive threshold method using the bit plane weight and the average complexity to increase insertion capacity adaptively. In the experiment, we inserted information into the standard images with the same image quality and same insertion capacity, and we analyzed the insertion capacity and image duality. As a result, the proposed method increased the insertion capacity of about 6% and improved the image quality of about 24dB than fixed threshold method.

The criticality of the shipping cask(KSC-7) for transportion of 7PWR spent fuel assemblies has been calculated and analysised on the basis of neutron transport theory. For criticality analysis, effects of the rod pitches, the fixed neutron absorbers(borated sus+boral) were considered. The effective multiplication factor has been calculated by KENO-Va, Mote Carlo method computer code, with the HANSEN-ROACH 16 group cross section set, which was made for personal computer system. The criticality for the KSC-7 cask was calculated in terms of the fresh fuel which was conservative for the aspects of nuclear critility. From the results of criticality analysis, the calculated Keff is proved to be lower than subcritical limit during normal transportation and under hypothetical accident condition. The maximum calculated criticalities of the KSC-7 were lower the safety criticality limit 1.0 recommended by US 10CFR71 both under normal and hypothetical accident condition. Also, to verify the KSC-7 criticality calculation results by using KENO-Va, it was carried out benchmark calculation with experimental data of B & W(Bobcock and Wilcox) company. From the 3s series of calculation of the KSC-7 cask and benchmark calculation, the cask was safely designed in nuclear criticality, respectively.

Based on the critical plane approach, a methodology far predicting the anisotropic strength ot transversely isotropic rock is Proposed. It is assumed that the rock failure is governed by Hoek-Brown failure criterion. In order to establish an anisotropic failure function, Mohr envelope equivalent to the original Hoek-Brown criterion is used and the strength parameters m, s are expressed as scalar functions of orientation. The conjugate gradient method, which is one of the robust optimization techniques, is applied to the failure function for searching the orientation giving the maximum value of the anisotropic function. While most of the existing anisotropic strength models can be applied only when the stress condition is the same as that of conventional triaxial compression test, the proposed model can be applied to the general 3-dimensional stress conditions. Through the simulation of triaxial compression tests for transversely isotropic rock sample, the validity of the proposed method is investigated by comparing the predicted triaxial strengths and inclinations of failure plane.

In construction of breadth-frist tree, the communication complexity can be reduced by efficent synchronization schemes based on several threshold values, We determine several new threshold values by considering the graph density represented as lognm, where n and m are the number of nodes and links., repectively. When thesethreshold values are used in the synchroization method for constructing distrbuted bradth-first search tree, we can obtain a more efficient algorithm in sparse graphs, and also, this algorithm has vthe same performance for communication complexity in dense graphs.

본 논문은 비디오 시퀀스에 카메라 패닝 보상과 2차원 시공간 엔트로피 임계법을 적용하여 추출한 객체포함영역을 대상으로 영상 분할을 수행하는 이동 객체 분할 기법에 관한 것이다. 우선, 웨이블렛 변환에 의해 구성한 피라미드 계층 구조상에서 카메라 패닝 벡터를 추정하여 전역 움직임을 보상한다. 이후, 전역 움직임이 보상된 기준영상을 대상으로 각 프레임간에서 2차원 시공간 엔트로피 임계법을 적용하여 이동 객체가 포함될 가능성이 있는 영역을 블록 단위로 추출한다. 다음으로, 2차원 시공간 엔트로피 입계법에 의해 분류된 영역을 토대로 각 블록을 움직임블록, 준 움직임 블록, 비 움직임 블록 중 어느 하나로 분류한 검색 테이블을 작성한다. 이어서, 검색 테이블을 참조하여 초기 탐색 계층 및 탐색 영역을 적응적으로 선정함으로써 피라미드 계층 구조상에서 효율적인 고속 움직임 추정을 수행하여 이동 객체에 해당하는 객체포함영역만을 추출한다. 최종적으로, 이렇게 추출된 객체포함영역에서 임계 기울기 영상을 정의한 후, 이를 기준 삼아 객체포함영역에 화소 단위의 형태학 기반 영상 분할 알고리즘을 적용함으로써 비디오 시퀀스에 포함된 이동 객체를 분할한다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결과를 통해 고찰할 때, 제안된 방법은 이동 객체에 대한 상대적으로 우수한 분할 특성을 제공할 수 있고, 특히 저대조 경계면의 분할 특성을 제고시키고 있음을 확인할 수 있다.

When the inferiorthreshold potential is applied on the membrane, the resting status membrane does not display any specific reaction, in the meanwhile if it receives somewhat higher voltages then it shows entirely different configuration. The fact that there is this kind of characteristics on the exciting membrane has been known for a long time, and some researchers have tried to analyze this situation using the electrical circuits but only limitted to inferiorthreshold potential case. The quantitative studies of especially for transthreshold stimulus is extremely rare up to now. The direct application of electrical circuit to biostatus is somewhat uneasonable because there may be much differences between them. We studied the electrical reaction quantitatively of biomembrane when it receives the transthreshold stimulus in point of electricity in this paper.

This study is aimed to obtain the critical crack lengthes of the concrete gravity dam and to investigate variation of the effective stress intensity factors at the crack tips of multiple cracks. Applied loads are dynamic load composed of blast vibration and hydrodynamic pressure which can be considered in case of the blast work at near construction site, in addition to static load composed of hydrostatic pressure, crack pressure, and gravity load of the dam. The critical crack lengthes were calculated according to the crack locations, directions, and magnitudes of blast vibration. Also variation of the effective stress intensity factors with respect to the multiple crack shapes and distances between the crack tips was investigated.

An anisotropic version of Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion is proposed in order to provide a strength criterion for transversely isotropic rock. The concept of fabric tensor introduced by Pietruszczak & Mroz (2001) is employed to define the friction angle and cohesion as scalar functions of the fabric tensors. The anisotroy in these two strength parameters are calculated in association with the consideration of the relative rotation between the principal stress coordinate and the principal material triad. The critical plane on which the anisotropic function maximized is found by an optimization technique based on the Lagrange multiplier method. To demonstrate the performance of the anisotropic failure criterion, conventional triaxial tests on the samples having various inclinations of weakness plane are simulated and the resulting triaxial strength and dip angle of failure plane are discussed.

MRI 나 CT 스캔에 의해 생성된 볼륨 데이터는 일반적으로 설러 샘플 지점에서의 이산적인 수치 데이터 일뿐 데이터 상호간의 함수적 연속성은 제공되지 않고 있다. 이러한 데이터로부터 우리가 원하는 임계값(threshold)에 의한 등가면(isosurface)을 렌더링하는 방법은 보통 Marching Cube에서처럼 많은 다각형을 생성해서 렌더링 하는 방법에 의존해 왔다. 그러나 원하는 등가면을 직접 표현할 수 있는 함수가 존재할 경우 많은 양의 다각형을 추출하고 보관해야 하는 시공간적 부담이 없게 된다. 본 논문에서는 각 Cube별로 정의되는 Tri-linear Interpolation 함수를 기반으로 하여 Interval Method 에 의한 등가면 렌더링 알고리즘을 제안한다.
