본 글에서는 지능구조물의 개념설명과 더불어 ERF의 특성, ERF를 함유란 함유 한 지능구조물 시스템의 구성, 동적 모델링과 진동제어 그리고 그 응용성에 관한 연구 현황과 방향에 대해 살펴보았다. 설명한 바와 같이 지능구조물은 새로운 차원의 신생 하는 첨단분야로서, 소음 및 진동에 관련된 무한한 잠재력과 다양한 응용성으로 미루 어 볼때 아주 매력적인 연구 분야이다. 그러나, 여러 응용 시스템의 상품화 단계로의 도약에 있어서 각 시스템 구성 요소 분야별 해결해야할 연구 사항들이 있다. 먼저, 액추에이팅을 수행하는 ERF 자체의 내구성 문제로서 고온에서 ERF의 효과 하락과 장시간 사용시 ERF에 의한 마멸, 고체 입자의 침전에 의한 초기 상태 불안정 등이 있다. 아울러 기존의 장치의 성능을 능가하기 위해 보다 큰 효과를 나타내는 새로운 차원의 ERF개발이 요구된다. 그리고 센서기술 분야에서는 호스트 재료에 보다 쉽게 결합이 되고 여러가지 형태의 요구조건을 만족시킬 수 있으며 외부 환경조건에 강건 하고 다양한 센서 개발이 요구된다. 또한, 보다 일번적인 동적 모델링을 통해 적용 시스템에 적합하고 강건한 제어기에 대한 연구가 진행되어야 한다. 마지막으로 능동 제어기를 실제로 구현하기 위한 호스트 재료 각 요소마다 센서의 설치, 페회로 피드백 시스템 장착, 상호간의 인터페이스 등의 기술 발전이 요구되며, 아울러 보다 효율적 인 시스템의 성능 특성을 실현할 수 있는 호스트 재료와 기계 메카니즘이 필요로 된다. 이상의 설명에서 알 수 있듯이 지능구조물에 대한 연구는 어느 한 분야에서만 아니라 기계, 전기전자, 토목, 물리, 재료과학 등 통합형식에 의한 접근 방향으로 추진되어야 할 것이다.서 세탁기의 진동 소음을 저감시키기 위해 진동 소음원에 대해 논술하고, 진동해석을 위해 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결과를 이용한 저진동 기술 개발에 대하여 기술하고자 한다.rotary piston)식 압축기는 약 20여년 전 부터 냉방용 압축기에서부터 널리 쓰이게 되었다. 약 10여년전부터 상용화 된 스크롤(scroll) 형 압축기도 현재 상대적으로 용량이 큰 가정용 냉방기를 중심으로 많이 쓰이고 있다. 스크류형 압축기는 보통 중대형 상업용에 주로 쓰인다. 해결하려 하였고, 수치해석은 피스톤의 운동을 배제한 단순화한 흡배기계의 정상상태 유동해석이 주를 이루어왔다. Taghaui and Dupont 등[5]은 KIVA코드를 사용하여 흡기포트와 연소실 그리고 밸브의 움직임을 동시에 고려한 수치해석을 도입하였다. 하지만 이들이 밸브의 운동을 고려하기 위해 사용한 이동격자는 격자점은 시간에 따라 변화하지만 그 격자의 수가 일정하게 유지되어 있어서 밸브의 완전개폐를 해석할 수가 없다. 강희정[6]은 단일 실린더와 단일 배기밸브를 갖는 문제로 단순화하여 피스톤과 밸브의 움직임을 고려하므로써 배기행정 후 소음이 어떻게 전파해 나가는가를 연구하였다. 본 연구에서도 최소밸브간격과 최대밸브간격 사이에서만 계산이 가능하나 흡기의 경우는 밸브가 닫힐 때 생기는 압력파가 중요하므로 실린더와 밸브사이에 벽면조건을 주어 밸브의 개폐를 모사하였다.술을 보유하고자 한다. 이용한 해마의 부피측정은 해마경화증 환자의 진단에 있어 육안적인 MR 진단이 어려운 제한된 경우에만 실제적 도움을 줄 수 있는 보조적인 방법으로 생각된다.ofile whereas relaxivity at high field is not affected by τS.

Reverberation time (T60) is a typical acoustic parameter that provides information about reverberation. Since the impacts of reverberation vary depending on the frequency bands even in the same space, frequency-dependent (FD) T60, which offers detailed insights into the acoustic environments, can be useful. However, most conventional blind T60 estimation methods, which estimate the T60 from speech signals, focus on fullband T60 estimation, and a few blind FDT60 estimation methods commonly show poor performance in the low-frequency bands. This paper introduces a modified approach based on Attentive pooling based Weighted Sum of Spectral Decay Rates (AWSSDR), previously proposed for blind T60 estimation, by extending its target from fullband T60 to FDT60. The experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms conventional blind FDT60 estimation methods on the acoustic characterization of environments (ACE) challenge evaluation dataset. Notably, it consistently exhibits excellent estimation performance in all frequency bands. This demonstrates that the mechanism of the AWSSDR method is valuable for blind FDT60 estimation because it reflects the FD variations in the impact of reverberation, aggregating information about FDT60 from the speech signal by processing the spectral decay rates associated with the physical properties of reverberation in each frequency band.

For this study, 373 students of H cyber university were chosen to conduct a survey in the spring semester of 2011. The result of this study through structural equation modeling analysis was as follows: First, organizational support significantly affected perceived isolation. Second, organizational support and perceived isolation significantly affected satisfaction. Third, perceived isolation and satisfaction significantly affected learning persistence, while organizational support didn't. In addition, satisfaction was verified as a mediating variable between organizational support, satisfaction, and learning persistence, and satisfaction was verified as a mediating variable between perceived isolation, organizational support and learning persistence. These results imply that perceived isolation and organizational support should be considered for the design and development strategies of instructional courses in order to enhance satisfaction and learning persistence of students in cyber educational environment.

Citation analysis studies have reported many problems associated with data coverage problems common to popular citation databases such as Web of Science(WoS). In addition, the studies that analyzed citation patterns of Korean publications found that up to 75% of references in Korean publications were to international publications. As a first step in investigating the international coverage of WoS database, the study investigated the effect of adding citation data from Korea Science Citation Database(KSCD) to the impact factors and journal rankings of the journals listed in Journal Citation Reports. Specifically, the study mined the reference data from top 5 Korean Library and Information Science(KLIS) journals to recompute the impact factors reported in JCR 2009. Since the resulting journal rankings did not significantly differ from JCR 2009 rankings except for minor ranking changes, we analyzed additional citation data from 45 computer science and electrical engineering journals. Although the overall ranking difference was not statistically significant, one of the ranking partitions showed significant change. Such study findings despite its limited data sample suggest the potential impact of non-Western citation databases such as KSCD to bibliometric indicators provided by popular citation databases like WoS.

All pixels of image sensor do not react uniformly even if the light of same radiance enters into the camera. This non-uniformity comes from the sensor pixel non-uniformity and non-uniformity induced by the changing transmission of the telescope over the field. The first contribution to the non-uniformity has high spatial frequency nature and has an influence on the result and quality of the data compression. The second source of non-uniformity has low frequency nature and has no influence of the compression result. As the contribution resulting from the sensor PRNU(Photo Response Non-Uniformity) is corrected inside the camera electronics, the effect of the remaining non-uniformity to the compression result will be negligible. The non-uniformity correction result shall have big difference according to the sensor modeling and the calculation method to get correction coefficient. Usually, the sensor can be modeled with one dimensional coefficients which are a gain and a offset for each pixel. Only two measurements are necessary theoretically to get coefficients. However, these are not the optimized value over the whole illumination level. This paper proposes the algorithm to calculate the optimized non-uniformity correction coefficients over whole illumination radiance. The proposed algorithm uses several measurements and the least square method to get the optimum coefficients. The proposed algorithm is verified using the own camera electronics including sensor, electrical test equipment and optical test equipment such as the integrating sphere.

Global auto parts companies are making efforts to develop EWP(: Electric Water Pump) which is one of the core parts of environment friendly car. In eco-friendly automobiles, an independent cooling system is used rather than a cooling system that is linked to an internal combustion engine. Therefore, the research and development of the water pump operating separately from the engine and the related production system are being actively carried out. In order to overcome the shortcoming of EWP of PPS material suitable for injection system, G company which is a global parts company that researches and develops EWP around SUS and is in the process of developing robot-based production equipment for mass production. In this paper, a heat shock simulation system is designed and implemented that works with the robot-based production system to test the performance of the produced EWP. By using this system, it is possible to test the EWP in an virtual environment similar to the actual environment, thereby reducing the defect rate of the product. At the same time, all the data produced during the entire process for testing can be stored, which can be utilized in the future development of CPS(: Cyber Physical System) of EWP system based on big data.

Purpose: Since preoperative staging in esophageal cancer is important in both therapy and prognosis, there had been many efforts to improve its accuracy. Recent studies indicate that whole body FDG-PET has high sensitivity in detection of metastasis in esophageal cancer. Therefore, we added FDG-PET to other conventional methods in staging esophageal cancer to evaluate the usefulness of this method. Materials & Methods: Subjects were 142 esophageal cancer patients (average $62.3{\pm}8.3$ yrs) who received CT and PET just before operation. First, we compared N stage and M stage of the CT or PET with those of the post-operative results. Then we compared the stage according to the EUS (T stage) and CT (N and M stage) or SUS (T stage) and CT & PET (N and M stage) to that according to the post-operative results. Results: Among 142 patients, surgical staging of 69 were N0 and 73 were N1. In M staging, 128 were M0 and 14 were M1. Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of N staging were 35.6%, 89.9%, 62.0% with CT and 58.9%, 71.0%, 64.7% with PET, respectively. In M staging, 14.3%, 96.9%, 88.7% with CT and 50.0%, 94.5%, 90.1%, with PET, respectively. The concordances of [EUS+CT] and [EUS+CT+PET] with post-operative results were 41.2% and 54.6%, respectively and there was significant improvement of staging with additional PET scan (p<0.005). Conclusion: The concordance of [EUS+CT+PET] with post-operative result was significantly increased compared to that of [EUS+CT]. Thus, the addition of FDG-PET with other conventional methods may enable more accurate preoperative staging.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a small animal PET using dual layer phoswich detector to minimize parallax error that degrades spatial resolution at the outer part of field-of-view (FOV). Materials and Methods: A simulation tool GATE (Geant4 Application for Tomographic Emission) was used to derive optimal parameters of small PET, and PET was developed employing the parameters. Lutetium Oxyorthosilicate (LSO) and Lutetium-Yttrium Aluminate-Perovskite(LuYAP) was used to construct dual layer phoswitch crystal. $8{\times}8$ arrays of LSO and LuYAP pixels, $2mm{\times}2mm{\times}8mm$ in size, were coupled to a 64-channel position sensitive photomultiplier tube. The system consisted of 16 detector modules arranged to one ring configuration (ring inner diameter 10 cm, FOV of 8 cm). The data from phoswich detector modules were fed into an ADC board in the data acquisition and preprocessing PC via sockets, decoder block, FPGA board, and bus board. These were linked to the master PC that stored the events data on hard disk. Results: In a preliminary test of the system, reconstructed images were obtained by using a pair of detectors and sensitivity and spatial resolution were measured. Spatial resolution was 2.3 mm FWHM and sensitivity was 10.9 $cps/{\mu}Ci$ at the center of FOV. Conclusion: The radioactivity distribution patterns were accurately represented in sinograms and images obtained by PET with a pair of detectors. These preliminary results indicate that it is promising to develop a high performance small animal PET.
