Basically, an ultrasonic imaging system has two fundamental imaging modes available. One is the B-mode imaging modality which provides an image of reflection coefficient, and the other is the Doppler color flow mode that maps blood flow inside the human heart and blood vessels. This paper presents a new method of detecting and compensating for aliasing that occurs when the Doppler frequency exceeds one-half of the pulse-repetition frequency (PRF). Its validity is shown by computer simulation. The new method not only extends the measurable Doppler frequency, but also helps to reduce the effect of noise. The results show that the aliasing can be compensated for correctly fur signal-to-noise ratios down to 20 dB.

The first 7 years of altimeter data from the TOPEX/POSEIDON(T/P) were analyzed to study the surface circulation and its variability in the East Asian Marginal Seas. Long term averaged T/P sea level time series data where compared with in situ sea level measurements from a float-operated type tide gauge around of south Korea and Japan. T/]P data are a large contaminated by 60-day tidal aliasing effect, very near the alias periods of M2 and 52. When this 60-day effect is removed, the data agree well with the tide gauge data with 4.6 cm averaged RMS difference. The T/P derived sea level variability reveals clearly the well-known, strong current-topography such as Kuroshio. The T/P mean sea level of North Pacific(NP) was higher than Yellow Sea(YS) and East Sea(ES). The T/P sea level variability, with strong eddy and meandering, was the largest in eastern part of Japan and this variability was mainly due to the influence of bottom topography in Kuroshio Extension area.

The acoustic field resulted by the radiation of sound from vibrating structure is predicted based on the sound pressure measurements. The sound pressures are measured at discreate point on the measurement plane ; Hologram. Based on these discreate measurements, the sound field away from the acoustic source is constructed based on the discreate form of Kirchhoff-Helmohltz integral equations The velocities, intensities, and pressures of arbitrary plane of interest in space are predicted and visualized The effects on the sound field reconstruction ; finite aperture effect, effect of finite sampling interval in space studied in terms of wraparound error and spatial aliasing. Numerical simulations and experimental verifications are performed to see these effects. To reduce the wraparound error, zero padding technique in space is used and the usefulness of the method is demonstrated by various examples.

T/P data are a large contaminated by 60-day tidal aliasing effect, very near the alias periods of M2 and S2. When this 60-day effect is removed, the data agree well with the tide gauge data with 4.6 cm averaged RMS difference. The T/P derived sea level variability reveals clearly the well-known, strong current-topography such as Kuroshio. The T/P mean sea level of North Pacific (NP) was higher than Yellow Sea (YS) and East Sea (ES).

The suitability of high-order accurate, centered and upwind-biased compact difference schemes for large eddy simulation is evaluated by a dynamic analysis. Large eddy simulation of isotropic turbulence is performed with various dissipative and non-dissipative schemes to investigate the effect of numerical dissipation on the resolved solutions. It is shown by the present dynamic analysis that upwind schemes reduce the aliasing error and increase the finite differencing error. The existence of optimal upwind scheme that minimizes total numerical error is verified. It is also shown that the finite differencing error from numerical dissipation is the leading source of numerical errors by upwind schemes. Simulations of a turbulent channel flow are conducted to show the existence of the optimal upwind scheme.

In this paper, we have studied on the IIR digital filters design using Elliptic functions. In process of transformation to digital fouctions from analos Elliptic functions, Bilinear z transformation method has been silized. Designing of digital filter using the Bilinear z transformation the problems of aliasing can be avoidedm whereas the frequency distrotion is generated. The transformation form analog function to digital function is not equal in the region of the cut off frequency response caused by this effect. Avoiding the problem of this effect, we have used proewarping method. Finally, the magnitude characteristics of digital filters are compared with its of analog filters by computer simulation. The results have shown that the magnitude characteristics of digital filters by the prewarping method have made more remarkable improvement than its of analog filters.

In this paper five-order Butterworth Low pass active RC filter is designed by using FDNR (Frequency Dependent Ncgative Resistor) Method from LC ladder filter having the lowest sensitivity. In process of Transformation to SCF (Switched Capacitor Filter) from active RC filter, Bilinear Z Transfomation method is utilized. By the design of SCF using the bilinear Z transform method the problem of aliasing can be avoided, but the frequency distortion is generated. The transformation from analog filter to digital filter is not equal in the region of the cut off frequency caused by this effect. Avoiding the problem of this effect, we use prewarping method. The result shows that the prewarped SCF makes more remarkable improvement in the frequency distortion than SCF which is transformed by using bilinear Z transform.

The numerical evaluation of Rayleigh's integral for the sound source reconstruction can be speeded up by the use of angular frequency propagation method and the FFT. However, are several source of errors involved during the reconstruction. Besides the aliasing error due to undersampling in space, the wrap around error. which is caused by undersampling the kernel functionin frequency domain, and windowing effect are present. We found that there is no replicated source problem and the windowing effect is due to the windowing the kernel function In frequency domain, and, xero padding is always required to improve the quality of reconstruction.

To figure out the cause of underestimating the roughness and shear strength of rock joints suggested by numerous researchers, we analyzed roughness mobilization characteristics, characteristics of roughness parameters, effects of sampling interval, and waviness for roughness parameters. It was found out that lack of understanding of the roughness mobilization characteristics, inappropriate applications of roughness parameters, and effect of aliasing provide a main reasons for those problems. Several practical alternatives for improving those problems were suggested. As far as digitizing methods are concerned, we can find that using a 3D scanner can give a relatively effective result. To avoid aliasing, sampling interval should be less than one-quarter of the minimum asperities. As for the quantification of roughness, it was analyzed that the roughness parameter should be classified into two components depending on the scale of roughness to apply the shear strength model. For classifying the roughness, a framework of the criterion was suggested based on the plastic flow concept for the asperity failure, and the basis for proposing a new alternative shear strength model was established.
