Comprehensive results from cyclic plate loading at a diameter of 300 mm supported by layers of geocell are presented. The plate load tests were performed in a test pit measuring $2000{\times}2000mm$ in plane and 700 mm in depth. To simulate half and full traffic loadings, fifteen loading and unloading cycles were applied to the loading plate with amplitudes of 400 and 800 kPa. The optimum embedded depth of the first layer of geocell beneath the loading plate and the optimum vertical spacing of geocell layers, based on plate settlement, are both approximately 0.2 times loading plate diameter. The results show that installation of the geocell layers in the foundation bed, increase the resilient behavior in addition to reduction of accumulated plastic and total settlement of pavement system. Efficiency of geocell reinforcement was decreased by increasing the number of the geocell layers for all applied stress levels and number of cycles of applied loading. The results of the testing reveal the ability of the multiple layers of geocell reinforcement to 'shakedown' to a fully resilient behavior after a period of plastic settlement except when there is little or no reinforcement and the applied cyclic pressure are large. When shakedown response is observed, then both the accumulated plastic settlement prior to a steady-state response being obtained and the resilient settlements thereafter are reduced. The use of four layers of geocell respectively decreases the total and residual plastic settlements about 53% and 63% and increases the resilient settlement 145% compared with the unreinforced case. The inclusion of the geocell layers also reduces the vertical stress transferred down through the pavement by distributing the load over a wider area. For example, at the end of the load cycle of the applied pressure of 800 kPa, the transferred pressure at the depth of 510 mm is reduced about 21.4%, 43.9%, 56.1% for the reinforced bases with one, two, and three layers of geocell, respectively, compared to the stress in the unreinforced bed.

Objectives: The information on the depth where pulse wave appears is as important as pulse waveform. The aim of this study was to classify pulse pattern using pressure-height(P-H) volume-curve by 5 applied pressure levels to find out the information on the depth of pulse and interpret the floating & sinking pulse in oriental medical pulse diagnosis. Methods: We used 3 dimensional pulse imaging analyser (DMP-3000, DAEYOMEDI Co., Korea), which measures radial pulse waveforms noninvasively by way of tonometric method at 5 applied pressure levels, and shows P-H volume-curves by applied pressure. 448 subjects were enrolled, pulse waveforms were measured and the P-H volume-curves were gained on the three locations of Chon, Kwan, and Cheok. Results: Gained P-H volume curves were classified into 3 types ; increase type, decrease type, and increase-decrease type. Increase-decrease type appeared more often on Chon and Kwan, while increase type appeared more often on Cheok. In a few cases, decrease-type appeared on Chon and Kawn, however it never appeared on Cheok. Conclusions: Through the classification of pulse by P-H volume-curve, we gained the information on the depth of pulse. We speculate the decrease type as floating pulse, the increase-decrease type as middle pulse, and the increase type as sinking pulse in oriental medical pulse diagnosis. After more researches on P-H volume-curve by applied pressure, the P-H volume-curve may be used as an important factor for pulse diagnosis.

In this paper, we propose the rapid implementation of a 3-dimensional (3D) facial reconstruction from a single frontal face image and introduce a design for its application on a mobile device. The proposed system can effectively reconstruct human faces in 3D using an approach robust to lighting conditions, and a fast method based on a Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) algorithm to estimate the depth. The reconstruction system is built by first creating 3D facial mapping from a personal identity vector of a face image. This mapping is then applied to real-world images captured with a built-in camera on a mobile device to form the corresponding 3D depth information. Finally, the facial texture from the face image is extracted and added to the reconstruction results. Experiments with an Android phone show that the implementation of this system as an Android application performs well. The advantage of the proposed method is an easy 3D reconstruction of almost all facial images captured in the real world with a fast computation. This has been clearly demonstrated in the Android application, which requires only a short time to reconstruct the 3D depth map.

Earthquake preparedness has become more important with recent increase in the number of earthquakes in Korea, but many existing structures are not prepared for earthquakes. There are various types of liquefaction prevention method that can be applied, such as compaction, replacement, dewatering, and inhibition of shear strain. However, most of the liquefaction prevention methods are applied before construction, and it is important to find optimal methods that can be applied to existing structures and that have few effects on the environment, such as noise, vibration, and changes in underground water level. The purpose of this study is to estimate the correlation between the displacement of a structure and variations of pore water pressure on the ground in accordance with the depth of the sheet file when liquidation occurs. To achieve this, a shaking table test was performed for Joo-Mun-Jin standard sand and an earth pressure, accelerometer, pore water pressure transducer, and LVDT were installed in both the non-liquefiable layer and the liquefiable layer to measure the subsidence and excess pore water pressure in accordance with the time of each embedded depth. Then the results were analyzed. A comparison of the pore water pressure in accordance with Hsp/Hsl was shown to prevent lateral water flow at 1, 0.85 and confirmed that the pore water pressure increased. In addition, the relationship between Hsp/Hsl and subsidence was expressed as a trend line to calculate the expected settlement rate formula for the embedded depth ratio.

DIBR(depth image-based rendering) 기법은 한 장의 칼라 영상과 그에 대응하는 깊이맵을 이용하여 수신측에서 가상의 좌우 영상을 생성하여 시청자에게 깊이감을 제공해주는 방법이다. 이 때 생성되는 좌우 영상의 화질과 깊이감은 좌우 영상의 시점에 해당하는 가상 카메라의 간격에 영향을 받게 된다. 본 논문에서는 가상 카메라의 간격 조절을 통해 양질의 깊이감을 제공하는 기법을 제안한다. 영상의 기하 분석에 따르면 스테레오스코픽 영상의 변이가 증가할수록 영상의 왜곡이 줄어들어 깊이감이 좋아지게 되나, 이 경우에는 그에 따른 영상의 열화가 고려되지 않았다. 실험결과에 따르면 영상열화나 시역형성의 제한 등으로 인해 변이의 증가폭에 제한이 있음을 알 수 있다. 변이 증가폭을 늘리기 위해서는 영상의 열화 현상을 줄여야 하므로 깊이맵의 전처리 과정을 추가하였다. 제안하는 방법은 시청자의 요구에 따라 카메라의 위치와 시점을 추가적으로 조절할 수 있게 하는 양방향 서비스를 추가로 제공하므로 3차원 TV 뿐만 아니라, DMB와 같은 이동형 방송 시스템에도 적용이 가능하다.

3차원 영상 시스템에서 깊이 영상은 3차원 콘텐츠를 표현하는데 있어 매우 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 그러나 깊이 카메라로부터 얻은 원본 깊이 영상은 해상도가 색상 영상에 비해 매우 작고 시간적 흐름의 측면에서 관찰하였을 때 깊이 값이 불안정하게 진동하는 깜빡임 문제가 발생한다. 이 문제는 시청자들이 3차원 콘텐츠를 감상할 때 불편한 느낌을 초래한다. 이 논문에서는 원본 깊이 영상의 저해상도 문제를 해결하기 위해 3차원 워핑과 깊이 가중치가 추가된 결합형 양방향 업샘플링 방법을 사용한다. 다음으로 깊이 영상의 배경 영역에서 발생하는 깜빡임 문제를 해결하기 위해 전경과 배경을 분리한 뒤, 전경 영역에는 업샘플링된 깊이 영상을 사용하고 배경 영역에는 시간적 평균값 필터 영상을 이용했다. 실험결과는 제안하는 방법이 시간적 일관성이 향상된 고해상도의 깊이 영상을 생성함을 보였다.

그래프 트래버설(traversal) 기법은 그래프의 노느들을 '방문(visiting)'하는 임의의 패턴이라고 할 수 있으며, 그래프 트래버설 방법 중 하나가 깊이 우선 탐색 기법은 유향 그래프의 강결합 요소나 일반 그래프의 이중 결합 요소를 찾는데 이용 된다. 이러한 깊이 우선 탐색 기법을 분산 네트워크 상에서 구현하기 위한 분산 프로토콜은 통신망의 위상 변화가 없는 고정위상 문제와 시간의 지남에 따라 위상의 변화가 있는 동적 위상 문제로 나누어 볼 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 먼저 고정 위상에 서의 개선된 분산 깊이 우선 탐색 프로토콜을 설계하고 다음으로 이 프로토콜을 동적 위상에 적용하여 링크/노드의 고장/복구에 대처할 수 있는 레질리언트 프로토콜을 설계하였다. 또한, 이들 프로토콜의 메시지와 시간 복잡도를 각각 분석하고,

This study has developed a technique to divide the aerosol optical depth of the entire aerosol (${\tau}_{total}$) into the dust optical depth (${\tau}_D$) and the pollution particle optical depth (${\tau}_P$) using the AERONET sun/sky radiometer data provided in Version 3. This method was applied to the analysis of AERONET data observed from 2006 to 2016 in Beijing, China, Seoul and Gosan, Korea and Osaka, Japan and the aerosol optical depth trends of different types of atmospheric aerosols in Northeast Asia were analyzed. The annual variation of ${\tau}_{total}$ showed a tendency to decrease except for Seoul where observation data were limited. However, ${\tau}_D$ tended to decrease when ${\tau}_{total}$ were separated as ${\tau}_D$ and ${\tau}_P$, but ${\tau}_P$ tended to increase except for Osaka. This is because the concentration of airborne aerosols, represented by Asian dust in Northeast Asia, is decreased in both mass concentration and optical concentration. However, even though the mass concentration of pollution particles generated by human activity tends to decrease, Which means that the optical concentration represented as aerosol optical depth is increasing in Northeast Asia.

The remote sensing data can be used to calculate the water depth especially in the clear and shallow water area. In this study, the SPOT data was used for bathymetric mapping in Dong-Sha atoll, located in northern South China Sea. The in situ sea depth was collected by echo sounder as well. A global positioning system was employed to locate the accurate sampling points for sea depth. An empirical model between measurement sea depth and band digital count was determined and based on least squares regression analysis. Both non-classification and unsupervised classification were used in this study. The results show that the standard error is less than 0.9m for non-classification. Besides, the 10% error related to the measurement water depth can be satisfied for more than 85% in situ data points. Otherwise, the 10% relative error can reach more than 97%, 69%, and 51% data points at class 4, 5, and 6 respectively if supervised classification is applied. Meanwhile, we also find that the unsupervised classification can get more accuracy to estimate water depth with standard error less than 0.63, 0.93, and 0.68m at class 4, 5, and 6 respectively.
