In a $2{\times}2$ factorial experiment the hypotheses tested were that the metabolic acid load caused by benzoic acid (BA) added to the feed affects bone mineralization of weanling pigs, and that a wide dietary calcium (Ca) to phosphorus (P) ratio in phytase-supplemented feeds with a marginal P concentration has a positive effect on bone mineralization. The four experimental diets, which contained 0.4% P and were supplemented with 1,000 FTU phytase/kg, contained either 5 g BA/kg or no BA and either 0.77% Ca or 0.57% Ca. The 68 four-week-old Large White pigs were fed the experimental diets ad libitum for six weeks and were then slaughtered. Benzoic acid increased feed intake (p = 0.009) and growth rate (p = 0.051), but did not influence the feed conversion ratio (p>0.10). Benzoic acid decreased the pH of the urine (p = 0.031), but did not affect breaking strength and mineralization of the tibia (p>0.10). The wide Ca:P ratio decreased feed intake (p = 0.034) and growth rate (p = 0.007) and impaired feed the conversion ratio (p = 0.027), but increased the mineral concentration in the fat-free DM of the tibia (p = 0.013) without influencing its breaking strength (p>0.10). The observed positive effect of the wide Ca:P ratio on bone mineralization may be attributed, at least in part, to the impaired feed conversion ratio, i.e. to the higher feed intake and consequently to the higher mineral intake per kg BW gain. The negative impact on animal performance of the wide dietary Ca:P ratio outweighs its potentially positive effect on bone mineralization, precluding its implementation under practical feeding conditions.

In this study, a concept of active sound enrichment (ASE) control system was implemented and demonstrated for improving engine sound quality inside the cabin of a passenger car during acceleration. Unlike the active noise control cancels the noise for disturbance rejection, the ASE adds additional sound to the noise for tracking control. This approach requires a new algorithm to provide additional artificial sound to the original engine sound using active control strategy to achieve a target sound profile, which is predefined to satisfy required interior sound quality. The ASE algorithm was implemented in a digital controller dSPACE DS1401 and real-time control experiment was accomplished in an actual car. The ASE control results show that the actively enriched sound of each engine order against RPM tracks the target profiles precisely and quickly and improves the discontinuity, the level ratios and the sound pressure level of each engine order. Thus it is anticipated the ASE system can be applied for the improvement of the engine sound quality inside the cabin during acceleration.

This paper demonstrates a real-time hybrid substructuring (RTHS) shake table test to evaluate the seismic performance of a base isolated building. Since RTHS involves a feedback loop in the test implementation, the frequency dependent magnitude and inherent time delay of the actuator dynamics can introduce inaccuracy and instability. The paper presents a robust stability and performance analysis method for the RTHS test. The robust stability method involves casting the actuator dynamics as a multiplicative uncertainty and applying the small gain theorem to derive the sufficient conditions for robust stability and performance. The attractive feature of this robust stability and performance analysis method is that it accommodates linearized modeled or measured frequency response functions for both the physical substructure and actuator dynamics. Significant experimental research has been conducted on base isolators and dampers toward developing high fidelity numerical models. Shake table testing, where the building superstructure is tested while the isolation layer is numerically modeled, can allow for a range of isolation strategies to be examined for a single shake table experiment. Further, recent concerns in base isolation for long period, long duration earthquakes necessitate adding damping at the isolation layer, which can allow higher frequency energy to be transmitted into the superstructure and can result in damage to structural and nonstructural components that can be difficult to numerically model and accurately predict. As such, physical testing of the superstructure while numerically modeling the isolation layer may be desired. The RTHS approach has been previously proposed for base isolated buildings, however, to date it has not been conducted on a base isolated structure isolated at the ground level and where the isolation layer itself is numerically simulated. This configuration provides multiple challenges in the RTHS stability associated with higher physical substructure frequencies and a low numerical to physical mass ratio. This paper demonstrates a base isolated RTHS test and the robust stability and performance analysis necessary to ensure the stability and accuracy. The tests consist of a scaled idealized 4-story superstructure building model placed directly onto a shake table and the isolation layer simulated in MATLAB/Simulink using a dSpace real-time controller.

In recent years the monitoring of structural behavior through acquisition of vibrational data has become common practice. In addition, recent advances in sensor development have made the collection of diverse dynamic information feasible. Other than the commonly collected acceleration information, Global Position System (GPS) receivers and non-contact, optical techniques have also allowed for the synchronous collection of highly accurate displacement data. The fusion of this heterogeneous information is crucial for the successful monitoring and control of structural systems especially when aiming at real-time estimation. This task is not a straightforward one as measurements are inevitably corrupted with some percentage of noise, often leading to imprecise estimation. Quite commonly, the presence of noise in acceleration signals results in drifting estimates of displacement states, as a result of numerical integration. In this study, a new approach based on a time domain identification method, namely the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF), is proposed for correcting the "drift effect" in displacement or rotation estimates in an online manner, i.e., on the fly as data is attained. The method relies on the introduction of artificial white noise (WN) observations into the filter equations, which is shown to achieve an online correction of the drift issue, thus yielding highly accurate motion data. The proposed approach is demonstrated for two cases; firstly, the illustrative example of a single degree of freedom linear oscillator is examined, where availability of acceleration measurements is exclusively assumed. Secondly, a field inspired implementation is presented for the torsional identification of a tall tower structure, where acceleration measurements are obtained at a high sampling rate and non-collocated GPS displacement measurements are assumed available at a lower sampling rate. A multi-rate Kalman Filter is incorporated into the analysis in order to successfully fuse data sampled at different rates.

최근 정보기술의 급속한 발달은 현실생활을 그대로 옮겨놓은 듯 한 가상현실을 실현케 했다. 특히 오늘날은 워크스테이션상에 구현이라는 기존의 틀을 벗어나, 인터넷을 기반으로 하는 글로벌형태의 정보서비스를 실현하고 있다. 게다가 3차원 가상현실 구현과 공공서비스를 위한 행정업무에 대한 활용이 활발히 모색되고 있는 가운데, 컴퓨터 하드웨어의 비약적인 발전은 정보유통에 대한 한계점을 극복하고, 국한된 민간사업부분을 벗어나, 공공기관, 지자체의 지하시설물 관리, 관광산업개발 등과 같은 폭넓고 다양한 분야에 걸쳐 활용 대상으로 부상하고 있다. 그러나, 이러한 가상현실과 3차원 GIS에 대한 수요증대에 비해 아직 우리 소방방계분야는 재난관리에 대한 그 활용성과 기대치에 대한 평가가 미비하다고 하겠다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 소방방재분에 있어 3차원 GIS의 활용방안 에 대해 검토하고자 하였으며, 실증적 테스트베드 구현을 통해 재난대응업무에 있어 2차원 GIS의 한계점을 살펴보고, 또한 최근 이슈와 되고 있는 유비쿼터스 도시패러다임 가운데 도시안전, 방재정보기술 개발의 기반마련과 활용방안에 대해 검토하였다.

Light Drawing은 사진 촬영 기법 중 하나로, 어두운 방이나 밤에 빛이 나는 물체의 움직임을 노출 기법을 이용하여 촬영 한 것이다[1]. 사용자가 Light Drawing을 만들려 한다면 장 노출 카메라가 필요하고, 어두운 환경이 필요함으로 제한사항이 따르며 사용자는 3차원 공간에 그림을 그리는 것에 어려움을 느낀다. 반면에 포토�斌� 같은 컴퓨터 드로잉 툴을 사용하여 Light Drawing 효과를 낼 수 있다. 그러나 마우스나, 타블렛과 같은 입력 장치는 실제로 그림을 그리는 행위와 차이가 나기에 사용자들의 흥미를 반감시킨다. 본 논문에서는 Light Drawing을 손쉽게 제작 가능한 디지털 컨텐츠를 제안한다. 스테레오 비전을 이용하여 빛의 3차원 위치 정보를 계산하고 Drawing Effect를 이용하여 3차원 가상 공간에 Light Drawing을 구현하였다.

동양 의학에서는 맥파를 분석해서 많은 질병을 분류하고 치료하고 있다. 그러나 현재까지 맥파를 분석하는 방법은 매우 주관적인 방법을 사용하기 때문에 신뢰도가 떨어지는 문제점이 발생한다. 뿐만 아니라, 기존 맥진기의 문제점으로는 요골동맥에 정확하게 맥진 센서가 위치하지 못하기 때문에 측정 위치에 따라 측정결과가 상이하고 측정절차에 매우 민감하여 높은 재현성을 실현 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 홀센서를 이용한 휴대용 맥진기를 이용해서 실맥 및 허맥을 분석 하는 연구 결과를 제안하였다. SPSS 통계 기법으로 분석한 실맥 및 허맥 최종 분석결과, 95% 신뢰도 구간에서 N.time(절흔점 시간) 및 S.amp (상승파형 크기) 평균치가 유의성이 있음을 입증하였다.
