Model experiments for a purse seine were carried out in order to measure the geometry of net shape and to estimate an enclosed volume by using 1177 scale model purse seine of 12.62m float line from an offshore mackerel purse seine. A model purse seine was set from a net box of shooting equipments and then pursing and hauling net by hauling equipment. The 3- D geometry shape of the purse seine net during hauling operation was measured by video image processing and tension of purse line by load cell. The 3-D geometry of the model purse seine during hauling operation could be represented with variables such as a ratio of shooting diameter or maximum net depth and a ratio of hauling operation time. Horizontal shapes of float line and lead line were varied from a circle after shooting to an ellipse with pursing and hauling. Projected lateral shape of purse line was observed and formulated as a shape of a water drop. The cross sectional shapes of curved net from two directions were varied such as sine function or polynomial curves. Therefore, enclosed volume of a purse seine in relation to fish school behaviour can be approximated using two main variables from relevant equations.

For the reconstruction of three-dimensional (3D) shape of microscopic objects through shape from focus (SFF) methods, usually a single focus measure operator is employed. However, it is difficult to compute accurate depth map using a single focus measure due to different textures, light conditions and arbitrary object surfaces. Moreover, real images with diverse types of illuminations and contrasts lead to the erroneous depth map estimation through a single focus measure. In order to get better focus measurements and depth map, we have combined focus measure operators by using genetic algorithm. The resultant focus measure is obtained by weighted sum of the output of various focus measure operators. Optimal weights are obtained using genetic algorithm. Finally, depth map is obtained from the refined focus volume. The performance of the developed method is then evaluated by using both the synthetic and real world image sequences. The experimental results show that the proposed method is more effective in computing accurate depth maps as compared to the existing SFF methods.

The purpose of this research is particle shape evaluation of aggregate using Digital Image Process(DIP). DIP is very useful to measure the roughness and particle shape of aggregates. Couple of aggregates, like standard sand, two different crushed stones, and two different marine aggregates, have been employed. Shape factors of two different marine aggregates are ranged 0.35 to 0.54. Crushed stone I is 0.74 which is highly flat, but standard sand is elongated shape. Especially, two marine aggregate showed a big difference of width and length which meaned a long shape. There is any significant difference of elongation ratio and flatness for each aggregate with different measuring system, like direct measurement of vernier calipers and DIP method. Shape conversion coefficient and equivalent diameter for changing 2D image to 3D image by the Digital Image Process(DIP) have been suggested and modified particle size distribution curve has been showed. The measured flatness ratios of each aggregate were 0.30, 0.36, 0.47 and 0.83, respectively. Also, the conversion shape coefficients of each aggregate were determinded as 0.77, 0.78, 0.84 and 0.92. The size of aggregate has been modified by multiplying the shape conversion coefficient and the aggregate size from DIP. The modified gradation curve with modified volume and weight of aggregate has been suggested. Within the limited test results, DIP is one of useful to get the particle shape of aggregate with limitation of measuring errors and to apply the particle distribution curve.

In this paper, we propose a new indoor localization method for indoor mobile robots using LiDAR. The indoor mobile robots operating in limited areas usually require high-precision localization to provide high level services. The performance of the widely used localization methods based on radio waves or computer vision are highly dependent on their usage environment. Therefore, the reproducibility of the localization is insufficient to provide high level services. To overcome this problem, we propose a new localization method based on the comparison between ceiling shape information obtained from LiDAR measurement and the blueprint. Specifically, the method includes a reliable segmentation method to classify point clouds into connected planes, an effective comparison method to estimate position by matching 3D point clouds and 2D blueprint information. Since the ceiling shape information is rarely changed, the proposed localization method is robust to its usage environment. Simulation results prove that the position error of the proposed localization method is less than 10 cm.

Facility management system has been studied recently due to its increasing demand. As a starting step it is necessary to create 3-D shape of the facility. In this study, we attempted to create 3-D shape of the buildings by fusing the raster and vector information. the raster information comes from stereo aerial photographs and the vector information comes from the existing 2-D digital map. GPS surveying and data conversion using ACAD and ARCINFO also performed to extract building height from stereo aerial photographs. Finally we could be able to perform semi-automatic 3-D building modeling with fusion of two sources of information.

Two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopy can probe the fast structural evolution of molecules under thermal equilibrium. Vibrational frequency fluctuation caused by structural evolution produced the time-dependent line shape change in 2D-IR spectrum. A variety of methods has been used to connect the evolution of 2D-IR spectrum with Frequency-Frequency Correlation Function (FFCF), which connects the experimental observables to a molecular level description. Here, a new method to extract FFCF from 2D-IR spectra is described. The experimental observable is the time-dependent frequency shift of maximum peak position in the slice spectrum of 2D-IR, which is taken along the excitation frequency axis. The direct relation between the 2D-IR peak shift and FFCF is proved analytically. Observing the 2D-IR peak shift does not need the full 2D-IR spectrum which covers 0-1 and 1-2 bands. Thus data collection time to determine FFCF can be reduced significantly, which helps the detection of transient species.

In order to increase the coupling strength between bisphenol-A type epoxy resin and filler SiO$_{2}$ it was treated to filler with silane coupling agent[KBM-603]. To observe how silane coupling agent effects on dielectric breakdown strength of Epoxy/SiO$_{2}$ compound material, specimens of eight type were made like following. (A-1, A-2), (B-1, B-2), (C-1, C-2), (D-1, D-2) (see 2-2. Specimen) Specimen treated with silane coupling agent had always bigger dielectric breakdown strength than non-treated specimen. Under the influence of silane coupling agent, increment ratio of dielectric breakdown strength at specimen manufactured by hand drill was very bigger than that of specimen inserted spherical electrode. Therefore, as the specimen shape was varied, it was studied on effect that silane coupling agent affects on dielectric breakdown strength of Epoxy/SiO$_{2}$ compound material.

This paper presents a new vertex-based binary shape coding scheme using one-dimensional vertex selection/encoding and vertex reordering. In compared with the conventional object-adaptive vertex encoding(OA VEL the extracted vertices are, firstly, classified into one-dimensional(lD) vertices and two-dimensional (2D) vertices in the proposed method. For lD vertices, new coding method proposed in this paper is performed. For 2D vertices, the vertex reordering and OA VE are carried out. Experimental results show that the proposed vertex-based coding scheme red.uces coding bits up to 12 % compared with the conventional one and its coding gain depends on the characteristics of contour.

In this study, we have fabricated 9.385[GHz] circulator that is composed of WR112 waveguide and Ferrite for X-band radar. For designing Ferrite, B/R mode(Below Resonance mode) was used and calculated the condition of 120 degree rotation of the electric field in Ferrite and calculated internal DC magnetic field and external DC magnetic field. Also, dielectric materials of the same shape with Ferrite was filled between two Ferrite for improving the performance of the circulator, including impedance matching, bandwidth, quality factor, insertion loss. To obtain optimum shape of the Ferrite and dielectric material, we used CST MWS. Simulation result of the circulator is that 1.02 : 1 VSWR, -40dB isolation, 0.2dB insertion loss and measurement result is that 1.03 : 1, -38dB, 1.2dB at 9.385[GHz]. We can get good agreement at isolation and VSWR, but insertion loss was 1 dB great than simulation result.

The purpose of this study was to offer typical facial shapes Korean women in their 20's to 50's. We used facial photographs of 600 Korean women obtained from $2003\sim2004$ Size Korea Project and we measured these photographs indirectly in this study by utilizing the Venus face2D program. Total 62 measurements on the face were measured and analyzed by statistical methods. The results were as follows. First of all, the mean of face length was 196mm, top face length was 62.3mm, middle face length was 68.9mm, bottom face length was 66.5mm, mean of forehead width was 125.1mm. As based on those average sizes, we proposed a average facial size and shape of Korean women and a average facial size and shape of 20's, 30's, 40's and 50's in this study. When examined characteristic of 20's facial shape, it was recognized that the width of forehead was wider and the width of gnathion was smaller than other age groups. In the characteristic of 30's facial shape, the ratios of facial length, top of face, middle of face and bottom of face were balanced well, as comparing with other age groups. Overall, the values of facial measurement of 30's were similar to the averages of total women. In the facial shape of 40's, mean length and width of face each were the smallest among each age group. The eye shape of 40's was more drooped than the average eye shape and the protrusion of the zygomatic bone was significantly different. In case of the facial shape of 50's, it was similar to the facial shape of 40's, but mean lengths and widths of 50's face were slightly larger than the values of 40's. The eye shape of 50's was more drooped than average group and the eye length was the smallest among all age groups.
