Based upon the derived analytical model and equation of motion for the general rotor system with anisotropic stator and asymmetric rotor treated as a periodically time-varying system, the series of equations are structured by associating with the time modulated coefficients. The frequency response functions (FRFs) expressed by physical parameters are derived in such a convenient way from the direct inverse matrices of the Fourier transformation of those series of equations, from which the characteristics are analyzed and the properties are suggested.

In this paper, the effects of superstrate on the radiation patterns of dipole on cylindrical bianisotropic substrates were studied. Special constitutive relations are used to describe the bianisotropic properties of a material, such that the Green's function can be formulated. Electromagnetic fields and boundary conditions in spectral region were used to find Green's function of the spectral representation and electromagnetic fields in space region were derived through inverse Fourier transformations of fields in spectral region using asymptotic formula for far zone. Radiation characteristics of axial Hertzian dipole on superstrate loaded cylindrical bianisotropic substrates were obtained. The effects of bianisotropic superstrate on the radiation properties of the antennas including beam scanning, directivity enhancement, dark-region illumination, and on horizon radiation, are discussed.

Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is new time-frequency analysis method to decompose the signal adaptively and efficiently. The key idea of EMD is to decompose the signal into a set of functions defined by the signal itself, named Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs), which preserve the inherent properties of the original signal. Since the decomposition is based on the local time scale of the signal, it is not only applicable to nonlinear and non-stationary processes but also useful in biomedical signals like electrocardiogram (ECG). Traditional low-pass filter uses fourier transform to analysis signal in frequency domain, but EMD is filtered to maintain signal properties in time domain. This paper performed signal decomposition and filtering for noisy ECGs using EMD method. The proposed method is presented and compared with traditional low-pass filter by two performance indices. Our results show effectiveness for enhancement of the noisy ECG waveforms.

In this paper, we propose a inverse synthetic aperture radar(ISAR) rotational motion compensation(RMC) method to remove residual blurring caused by non-uniform rotational motion of a target. First, a range bin having an isolated scatterer is selected. Next, polynomial phase signal in the selected range bin is estimated by using both Fourier transform(FT) and polynomial-phase transform(PPT). Finally, a new slow time variable that uniformly samples radar signal along the aspect angle directions is defined by using the estimated phase signal, and we interpolate radar signal in terms of the new time variable. As a result, rotational motion to blurr ISAR images is removed, and focused ISAR images are obtained. Simulation results using battleship model validate the robustness and effectiveness of our proposed RMC method.

비등방성으로 적층된 복합판 및 쉘구조물에서 온도와 습도의 급격한 변화는 구조물의 강도와 성능을 저하시키는 중요한 원인이 된다. 더욱이 하중에 의한 역학적 변위와 조합될 때에는 좌굴, 대변형 혹은 고응력 상태를 유발하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이중 퓨리에급수를 이용하여 3차의 전단변형함수로 가정된 평형방정석을 전개하고 폭-두께비, 형상비의 변화 그리고 재료의 성질에 따른 결과에 대하여 고찰하였다.

An inversion method is presented for the determination of the compressional wave speed, compressional wave attenuation, thickness of the sediment layer and density as a function of depth for a horizontally stratified ocean bottom. An experiment for estimating those properties was conducted in the shallow water of South Sea in Korea. In the experiment, a light bulb implosion and the propagating sound were measured using a VLA (vertical line array). As a method for estimating the geoacoustic properties, a coherent broadband matched field processing combined with Genetic Algorithm was employed. When a time-dependent signal is very short, the Fourier transform results are not accurate, since the frequency components are not locatable in time and the windowed Fourier transform is limited by the length of the window. However, it is possible to do this using the wavelet transform a transform that yields a time-frequency representation of a signal. In this study, this transform is used to identify and extract the acoustic components from multipath time series. The inversion is formulated as an optimization problem which maximizes the cost function defined as a normalized correlation between the measured and modeled signals in the wavelet transform coefficient vector. The experiments and procedures for deploying the light bulbs and the coherent broadband inversion method are described, and the estimated geoacoustic profile in the vicinity of the VLA site is presented.

This Paper describes a crack scattering model for SH wave based on the boundary integral equation(BIE) method, where the fundamental unknown is crack opening displacement(COD). When a time harmonic plane wave was incident on a 2-D isolated crack (slit) of width 2a, the COD distributions were numerically calculated as a function of ka. The calculated COD agreed well with results obtained with other methods. The far-field scattering amplitude, which completely characterizes the flaw response, was calculated in two ways. The Kirchhoff approximation and the BIE-COD exact formulation were compared in terms of incidence angle and frequency ka in a pulse-echo mode. Maximum response was obtained for both methods at the specular reflection direction. Away from the specular direction, the Kirchhoff approximation becomes less accurate. The time domain crack response was also calculated using a band-limited spectrum of center frequency 10 MHz. At oblique incidence to the crack both methods show the existence of an antisymmetric flash points occurring from the crack edge. The Kirchhoff approximation provides an exact time interval between flash points, although it unrealistically gives the same amplitude.

Vegetation phenology is the most important indicator of ecosystem response to climate change. Therefore it is necessary to continuously monitor forest phenology. This paper analyzes the phenological characteristics of forests in South Korea using the MODIS vegetation index with error from clouds or other sources removed using the HANTS algorithm. After using the HANTS algorithm to reduce the noise of the satellite-based vegetation index data, we were able to confirm that phenological transition dates varied strongly with altitudinal gradients. The dates of the start of the growing season, end of the growing season and the length of the growing season were estimated to vary by +0.71day/100m, -1.33day/100m and -2.04day/100m in needleleaf forests, +1.50day/100m, -1.54day/100m and -3.04day/100m in broadleaf forests, +1.39day/100m, -2.04day/100m and -3.43day/100m in mixed forests. We found a linear pattern of variation in response to altitudinal gradients that was related to air temperature. We also found that broadleaf forests are more sensitive to temperature changes compared to needleleaf forests.

The characteristics of the Asian summer monsoon have been investigated for the periods of 1993/1994, the contrasting years in a view of the summer monsoon precipitation. In order to investigate the monsoon features over the eastern Asian monsoon region, the cloudiness(using the extensive data derived by the geostationary meteorological satellite), the condition of underlying surface including sea-surface temperature, and the summer rainfall are analyzed and some comparisons with 1993 and 1994 are also made and the characteristic differences are discussed. An analysis of the 2-degree latitude-longitude gridded 5-day mean high cloud amount data shows the detailed movement and persistence of the convective activities. In order to describe the spatial and temporal structures of the intraseasonal oscillation for the movement and evolution of the monsoon cloud, the extended empirical orthogonal fnction analysis with the twenty-day window size is used for the each year. Also, in order to find out the periodicity of the equatorial convective cluster, Fourier harmonic analysis is applied to the each year. The most prevailing intraseasonal oscillations of high cloud amount are 61 day mode and 15day mode in the equatorial and the subtropical oceans. However it was found that the most prevailing modes over the equatorial western Pacific and Indian Ocean were different for each year, hence raising the possibillity that the contrasting monsoon presipitation may be more fundamentally related to the interaction of intraseasonal oscillations and seasonal variation of convective activities over the lower latitude ocean.
