In the present study, we propose four participating $8^{th}$ grade students' genetic decomposition of congruent transformation and investigate the role of their dragging activities while understanding the concept of congruent transformation in GSP(Geometer's Sketchpad). The students began to use two major schema, 'single-point movement' and 'identification of transformation' simultaneously in their transformation activities, but they were inclined to rely on the single-point movement schema when dealing with relatively difficult tasks. Through dragging activities, they could expand the domain and range of transformation to every point on a plane, not confined to relevant geometric figures. Dragging activities also helped the students recognize the role of a vector, a center of rotation, and an axis of symmetry.

The purpose of this study was to find out how second, fourth and sixth graders understood the main contents related to spatial sense in the Seventh National Mathematics Curriculum. For this purpose, this study examined students' understanding of the main contents of congruence transformation (slide, flip, turn), mirror symmetry, cubes, congruence and symmetry. An investigation was conducted and the subjects included 483 students. The main results are as follows. First, with regards to congruence transformation, whereas students had high percentages of correct answers on questions concerning slide, they had lower percentages on questions concerning turn. Percentages of correct answers on flip questions had significant differences among the three grades. In addition, most students experienced difficulties in describing the changes of shapes. Second, students understood the fact that the right and the left of an image in a mirror are exchanged, but they had poor overall understanding of mirror symmetry. The more complicated the cubes, the lower percentages of correct answers. Third, students had a good understanding of congruences, but they had difficulties in finding out congruent figures. Lastly, they had a poor understanding of symmetry and, in particular, didn't distinguish a symmetric figure of a line from a symmetric figure of a point.

Vibration modes obtained from a modal analysis can be better explained from a screw theoretical standpoint. A vibration mode can be geometrically interpreted as a pure rotation about the vibration center in a plane and as the twisting motion on a screw in a three dimensional space. This paper, presents the method to diagonalize a spatial stiffness matrix by use of a parallel axis congruence transformation. It also describes that the stiffness matrix diagonalized by a congruence transformation, can have the planes of symmetry depending on the location of the center of elasticity. For a plane of symmetry, any vibration mode can be expressed by the axis of vibration. Analytical solutions for the axis of vibration has been derived.

본 논문에서는Akl-Meijer가 설계한 랜덤 치환 발생기를 일반화한 알고리즘을 제안한다. Akl과 Meijer는 사이즈가 m인 치환(Permutation)과 0과 m!-1사이의 정수를 일대일 대응시키는 Knuth의 알고리즘을 이용하여, 선형 합동법 Y=X+C mod m! (C는 상수)에서 발생되는 난수와 일대일 대응되는 치환을 발생하는 치환 발생 알고리즘을 설계하였으며, 이를 응용하여, 이진 난수 발생기를 제시하였다. 본 논문에서는 선형 합동법 Y=AX+C mod m!(A, C는 상수)에서 발생되는 난수와 일대일 대응되는 치환 계산과정을 상삼각 행렬(Upper triangular matrix) 의 곱으로 변환하여 고속으로 계산하는 알고리즘을 제시한후, 이 알고리즘의 출력 치환을 n 개 결합하여 치환을 발생하는 랜덤치환 발생기를 설계한다. 또한 이의 암호적인 응용으로, 치환 발생기를 이용한 이진 난수 발생기를 제시한다.

Link-K message is the Tactical Data Link message standard developed by the Agency for Defense Development which is optimized for the Joint Operation of ROK Armed Force. KMTF message is the standard message format of Battle Management Information System. Interconversion and propagation between these messages are definitely needed to have efficient warfare such as situation data propagation using network, the convergence of collected situation data, common situational awareness, cooperative engagement. Therefore, this study suggests a way of rule and process for format conversion between Link-K and KMTF messages.

A coupled governing equation of thermoelectric materials can be converted into an uncoupled form to predict the effective Seebeck coefficient of thermoelectric composites, where modified Eshelby model is adopted. The predicted results by the present approach for serial- and parallel-connected composites and composite with spherical inclusions are compared with theoretical and experimental results from literatures to be justified. It is shown that the predictions by the theoretical approaches coincide exactly and show in good agreement with the experiments.

In this paper, a robust $H\infty$ stabilization problem to a uncertain discrete-time nonlinear systems with time-delay via fuzzy static output feedback is investigated. The Takagj-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy model is employed to represent an uncertain nonlinear system with time-delayed state. Then, the parallel distributed compensation technique is used for designing of the robust fuzzy controller. Using a single Lyapunov function, the globally asymptotic stability and disturbance attenuation of the closed-loop fuzzy control system are discussed. Sufficient conditions for the existence of robust $H\infty$ controllers are given in terms of linear matrix inequalities via similarity transform and congruence transform technique. We have shown the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method through the simulation.

This study is based on the pedagogical aspect that both connections of mathematical concepts and a geometric approach enhance the understanding of structures in school mathematics. This study is to investigate the graphical properties of quadratic functions such as symmetry, coordinates of vertex, intercepts and congruency through the geometric properties of graphs of linear functions. From this investigation this study would give suggestions on a new pedagogical perspective about current teaching and learning methods of quadratic function graphs which is focused on routine algebraic transformation of the completing squares. In addition, this study would provide the topic of quadratic function graphs with the understanding of geometric perspective.
