To improve reliability and practicality, a fingerprint-based biometric system needs to be robust to rotations of an input fingerprint and the processing speed should be fast. Accordingly, this paper presents a new filterbank-based fingerprint feature extraction and matching method that is robust to diverse rotations and reasonably fast. The proposed method fast extracts fingerprint features using a directional filter bank, which effectively decomposes an image into several subband outputs Since matching is also performed rapidly based on the Euclidean distance between the corresponding feature vectors, the overall processing speed is so fast. To make the system robust to rotations, the proposed method generates a set of feature vectors considering various rotations of an input fingerprint and then matches these feature vectors with the enrolled single template feature vector. Experimental results demonstrated the high speed of the proposed method in feature extraction and matching, along with a comparable verification accuracy to that of other leading techniques.

강직성은 우주 공간에 대해 일정한 방향을 유지하려고 하는 성질로 뉴턴의 제1법칙인 관성력을 이용한 한 형태라고 할 수 있다. 강직성은 자체 회전축의 방향을 변화시켜려는 외력에 대항하여 자이로의 지지대를 기울여도 자이로의 축을 원위치로 유지하게 하는 성질이다. 이 성질은 3개의 변수인 로터의 질량, 반경, 회전속도에 좌우된다. 강직성을 이용하여 만든 자이로를 3축 자이로 혹은 Free Mounted Gyro라 하며 3축 자이로는 항공기 계기에서 자세기준, 방향기준을 설정하는데 이용된다.

It is necessary to study about moment performance of glulam-dowel connections which had been applied rotation. To analyze and predict the moment performance, angled to grain load was replaced with parallel to grain load and perpendicular to grain load. The dowel bending strength and dowel bearing strength were tested. And tensile strength test for connections of two different end distances was performed. Specimens of rotation test were composed with different drift pin numbers and drift pin arrangement. Connection deformation was occurred by plastic behavior of drift pin after yield when tensile load applied at connection. And the absorbing drift pin deflection by end distance continued the connection deformation. When rotation applied at connection that 2 drift pins were arranged parallel to grain (b2h), it showed similar performance with tensile perpendicular to grain. And connection that 2 drift pins were arranged perpendicular to grain (b2v) showed similar performance with tensile parallel to grain. Connection capacity that 4 drift pins were arranged rectangular (b4) showed 1.7 times as strong as connection that 2 drift pins were arranged parallel to grain (b2h). These results agreed predicted values and it is available that rotation replaced with tensile load.

It is generally known that a two-lane roundabout has some problems in safety such as increasing conflicts, typically merging and diverging conflicts and conflicts between entering traffic and exiting as well as turning traffic. To solve these problems, a turbo-roundabout had been developed and has successfully brought safer and more efficient operation in other countries. In this study, micro simulations using VISSIM were conducted to investigate the maximum value of service traffic volume. It was found that operation of turbo-roundabouts was influenced by traffic volume for each turning traffic, and the maximum values of traffic volume were values between 2,400 and 2,800 vehicles per hour as rates of traffic volume for each turning traffic. Typically, turbo-roundabouts have limited to operate in conditions with more than 30% for left-turning traffic volume.

Movements of the lower limb are important for normal walking and smooth oscillation of the center of gravity. The ankle rotations such as dorsi-flexion, plantar-flexion, inversion and eversion allows the foot to accommodate to ground during level ground walking. Current below knee (B/K) prostheses are used for replacing amputated ankle, and make it possible for amputees to walk again. However, most of amputees with B/K prostheses often experience a loss of terrain adaptability as well as stability because of limited ankle rotation. This study is focused on the development of multi-rotational prosthetic foot for lower limb amputee. Our prosthesis is possible for amputees to easily walk in level ground by rotating ankle joint in sagittal plane and adapt to the abnormal terrain with ankle rotation in coronal plane. The resistance of ankle joint in the direction of dorsi/plantar-flexion can be manually regulated by hydraulic damper with controllable nozzle. Furthermore, double layered rubber induce the prosthesis adapt to irregular ground by tilting itself in direction of eversion and inversion. The experimental results highlights the potential that our prosthesis induce a normal gait for below knee amputee.

환형수조는 점착성 퇴적물의 침/퇴적실험을 위한 실험장치로서, 수조내부의 수면과 접하여 회전하는 상부링(top ring)의 마찰력에 의해 흐름이 생성되며, 시간의 제약없이 흐름조건을 동일하게 만들 수 있다는 큰 장점을 갖는다. 그러나 환형수조는 원주유속의 속도차이 및 원심력으로 인한 2차 순환류가 형성되어 바닥전단응력이 불균일해지는 단점을 가지고 있으며, 이러한 이유로 인하여 환형수조를 이용한 침/퇴적실험 수행시 수조의 외벽부근에서 더 큰 침식이 발생한다. 따라서, 2차 순환류의 발생을 줄이고 바닥전단응력의 분포를 균등하게 하기 위해 양방향 회전(환형수조의 몸체를 상부링의 회전방향과 반대방향으로 회전)이 가능한 환형수조가 고안되었는데, 이러한 방법으로 2차 순환류의 크기를 저감시키고, 바닥전단응력을 균일하게 만들 수 있다. 한편, 환형수조의 양방향 회전(counter-rotation)은 현장용 환형수조에는 적용될 수 없는 단점을 갖는다. 현장실험에서는 바닥면이 없는 현장용 환형수조를 해저면에 거치시켜 자연상태의 비교란 퇴적물 시료를 저면으로 형성시키는데, 바닥면이 존재하지 않는 환형수조 본체는 회전시킬 수 없으므로 양방향 회전을 통한 2차 순환류의 저감 및 바닥전단응력 균일화의 효과를 기대할 수 없다. 이러한 이유로 환형수조의 양방향 회전은 단지 실내실험용 환형수조에만 적용된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 환형수조 본체를 회전시키지 않고 수조의 측벽과 상부링의 각도 조절을 통해 수조단면의 형상을 변화시켜 2차 순환류를 저감시키고 바닥전단응력을 균등하게 하는 방법에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. 이 방법은 본체의 회전이 필요 없으므로 현장용 환형수조에 적용될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 실험장치의 구조가 단순해져 실험장치의 제작비가 절감될 수 있다. 또한 원주속도에 수직한 단면에서 속도구배가 감소되어 2차 순환류가 저감됨과 동시에 바닥전단응력이 균등하게 됨으로서 양방향 회전시와 동일한 효과가 얻어질 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

This study investigated the rate of setup variance by the rotating unbalance of gantry in image-guided radiation therapy. The equipments used linear accelerator(Elekta Synergy TM, UK) and a three-dimensional volume imaging mode(3D Volume View) in cone beam computed tomography(CBCT) system. 2D images obtained by rotating $360^{\circ}$and $180^{\circ}$ were reconstructed to 3D image. Catpan503 phantom and homogeneous phantom were used to measure the setup errors. Ball-bearing phantom was used to check the rotation axis of the CBCT. The volume image from CBCT using Catphan503 phantom and homogeneous phantom were analyzed and compared to images from conventional CT in the six dimensional view(X, Y, Z, Roll, Pitch, and Yaw). The variance ratio of setup error were difference in X 0.6 mm, Y 0.5 mm Z 0.5 mm when the gantry rotated $360^{\circ}$ in orthogonal coordinate. whereas rotated $180^{\circ}$, the error measured 0.9 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm in X, Y, Z respectively. In the rotating coordinates, the more increased the rotating unbalance, the more raised average ratio of setup errors. The resolution of CBCT images showed 2 level of difference in the table recommended. CBCT had a good agreement compared to each recommended values which is the mechanical safety, geometry accuracy and image quality. The rotating unbalance of gentry vary hardly in orthogonal coordinate. However, in rotating coordinate of gantry exceeded the ${\pm}1^{\circ}$ of recommended value. Therefore, when we do sophisticated radiation therapy six dimensional correction is needed.

We present an efficient algorithm for skew correction of business card images obtained by a PDA (personal digital assistant) camera. The proposed method is composed of four parts: block adaptive binarization (BAB), stripe generation, skew angle calculation, and image rotation. In the BAB, an input image is binarized block by block so as to lessen the effect of irregular illumination and shadow over the input image. In the stripe generation, character string clusters are generated merging adjacent characters and their strings, and then only clusters useful for skew angle calculation are output as stripes. In the skew angle calculation, the direction angles of the stripes are calculated using their central moments and then the skew angle of the input image is determined averaging the direction angles. In the image rotation, the input image is rotated by the skew angle. Experimental results shows that the proposed method yields skew correction rates of about 93% for test images of several types of business cards acquired by a PDA under various surrounding conditions.
