The purpose of this study was to detect the pin hole defect of dental composite restoration using lock-in thermography method. Amplitude and phase images of the composite resin specimens were analyzed according to the lock-in frequency and the diameter of defect area. Through the amplitude image analysis, at lock-in frequency of 0.05 Hz, defect diameters 2-5 mm exhibited the highest amplitude contrast value between defective area and sound area. The lock-in frequency range of 0.3-0.5 Hz provided good phase angle contrast for the defect area. At lock-in frequency range of 0.5 Hz, defect diameter of 5 mm exhibited the highest phase contrast value. It is concluded that the infrared lock-in thermography method verified the effectiveness for detecting the pin hole defect of dental composite restoration.

Recently, Televiewer(Borehole Acoustic Scanner(Televiewer)) has come to be widely used specially for the general engineering construction design. The Televiewer tool using a focussed acoustic beam is to detect the amplitude and traveltime of each reflected acoustic signal at the wall, resulting in the amplitude- and traveltime image respectively. Fractures can be well detected, because they easily scatter the acoustic energy due to the highly narrow beam. In addition, the drilling work will rough the borehole wall so that the acoustic energy can be scattered simply due to the roughness of the wall. Thus, the amplitude level can be directed associated with the elastic properties(impedance) and the hardness of the rock as well. Meanwhile, the traveltime image provides an information about the borehole shape and can be converted to a high precision 3D caliper log(max. 288 arms). In this paper, based on the high resolution of Televiewer images, general evaluation methods are illustrated to derive very reliable rock parameters.

Two-dimensional (2D) images that are produced by terahertz (THz) irradiation we presented. It is possible to obtain 2D image of various materials by observing the amplitude and the phase of the THz signals which go through them. Better images are produced by combining the amplitude and phase of the signal rather than using only one of these. Homomorphic filtering that is one elf the well-known technique of digital image signal processing is effective to reduce the noise signal and can provide better quality images. The results can be applied to real-time imaging afterwards.

Nondestructive surface imaging of elastic characteristic and mechanical property has been studied on nanoscale surface with ultrasonic AFM. Resonance frequency variation of cantilever is theoretically analyzed with respect to contact mechanics as well as experimentally measured. The contact resonance frequency is calculated theoretically using the spring-mass and Herzian model in accordance with the resonance frequency of UAFM cantilever measured experimentally. Consequently, the topography and amplitude images could be obtained successfully and the elastic characteristic at the nanoscale surface was evaluated qualitatively by amplitude signals.

An experimental study investigates the flame response characteristics of non-premixed flame and premixed flame. Air was used as the oxidant. Hydrogen($H_2$)/methane($CH_4$) was used as the fuel, and the mixing ratio of the fuel was 50/50%. Flame response characteristics for various velocity perturbations were experimented. The flame images was acquired using the OH fluorescence measurement and the images were digitized using MatLab code. The results of the premixed flame show that flame perturbation increases as the oscillation amplitude increases. As the amplitude increases, the gain value of the flame transfer function is observed to be a linear behavior. The flame length of a nonpremixed flame decreases as the oscillation amplitude increases. Also, it was confirmed that the gain value according to the amplitude behaves nonlinearly.

본 연구에서는 실시간으로 변화하는 사용자의 감성을 평가하여 각성 또는 이완으로 분류된 시선 정보 이미지를 저장하는 시스템을 구현하고자 한다. 사용자의 감성을 분류하기 위한 요소는 Larson과 Diner 가 정의한 2 차원 감성모델에서 각성, 이완 요소를 사용한다. 감성 상태를 분류하기 위하여 자율 신경계 중 착용과 휴대가 간편한 PPG 센서를 사용하며, PPG 를 분석하기 위한 변수로는 진폭의 양과 초당 Peak 의 빈도수를 사용한다. 머리에 고정할 수 있는 캠을 사용하여 사용자가 바라보는 시선 정보를 획득하고, 클라이언트 컴퓨터는 획득된 시선 정보를 UDP 통신을 사용해 서버 컴퓨터로 전송하는 시스템이다. 320(pixel)*240(pixel)*32(bit)인 영상 데이터를 1/30 로 압축하여 전송하며, 각성과 이완으로 분류되는 시점의 영상을 블록화하여 JPEG 이미지로 저장한다. 본 시스템은 실시간으로 변화되는 사용자의 감성 상태를 파악하여 이미지를 전송하고 서버 컴퓨터에 저장함으로써 당시 사용자가 느꼈던 감성들에 대해 피드백을 주고자 하는데 의의가 있다.

Robust nonlinear image denoising algorithms for the class of ${\alpha}$-stable distribution are introduced. The proposed amplitude-limited sample average filter(ALSAF) proves to be the maximum likelihood estimator under the heavy-tailed Gaussian noise environments. The error norm for this estimator is equivalent to Huber#s minimax norm. It is optimal in the respect of maximizing the efficacy under the above noise environment. It is mired with the myriad filter to propose an amplitude-limited myriad filter(ALMF). The behavior and performance of the ALSAF and ALMF in ${\alpha}$-stable noise environment are illustrated and analyzed through simulation.

This study presents the assessment results of adhesive properties on the interface between a silicon wafer and nano-scale polymer thin film pattern through UAFM images by using the contact resonance frequency of the cantilever. For the experiment, we varied surface treatment processes for the silicon wafer and fabricated a 300nm polymer thin film pattern through lithography. Images from the optical microscope were used to compare the produced test specimens for adhesive condition and the critical load value from the nano scratch test was used to verify the adhesive condition of the nano pattern. Each test specimen resulted in a $1{\mu}m{\times}1{\mu}m$ surface image and subsurface adhesive image. Adhesive condition was evaluated by image contrast differences on the interface according to the changing amplitudes and phases of contact resonance frequency.
