Researchers have been long studying new building implementation methods to improve the quality of construction, reduce the time of assembly, and increase productivity. One of these methods is the use of modular pre-fabricated structural forms that are composed of a beam, column, short column, pyramidal end block, and connection plates. In this study, a new geometry for the pyramidal end block was proposed that helps facilitate the assembly procedure. Since the proposed configuration affects the performance of this form of connection, its behavior was evaluated using finite element method. For this purpose, the connection was modeled in ABAQUS and then validated by comparing the outputs with experimental results. The research proceeded through analyzing 16 specimens under monotonic and cyclic loading. The results indicated that using the pyramidal end block not only makes the assembly process easier but also reduces the out-of-plane displacement of the short column webs and the vertical displacement of beam end. By choosing appropriate section properties for column and beam, the connection can bear a rotation up to 0.01 radians within its inelastic region and a total of 0.04 radians without any significant reduction in its bearing capacity.

Recently, the maintenance period of sidewalk pavement proposed in Ministry of Construction & Transportation to be extended by more than 10 years. Therefore it takes many interests in Durability and the maintenance. Beside sidewalk pavement, block pavement happened problems in parking and road less than 20km/hr about bearing capacity and durability, the maintenance. It interests about importance of environmentally friendly sidewalk pavement. It compared engineering characteristics about strength and durability through general pavement comparison with stone block pavement. It estimate bearing capacity in actual si-tu site and test site. It experimented plate bearing test and field density test. It verified about durability of pavement by construction availability of geosynthetics that is constructed by purpose of filter. Stone block pavement evaluated about application of sidewalk/road pavement on the basis of result.

The size of raw data has dramatically increased due to the recent trend of Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR) development plans for high resolution and high definition image acquisition. The large raw data has an impact on satellite operability due to the limitations of storage and transmission capacity. To improve the SAR operability, the SAR raw data shall be compressed before transmission to the ground station. The Block Adaptive Quantization (BAQ) algorithm is one of the data compression algorithm and has been used for a long time in the spaceborne SAR system. In this paper, an optimization method of BAQ threshold table is introduced using real SAR raw data to prevent the degradation of signal quality caused by data compression. In this manner, a new variation estimation strategy and a new threshold method for block type decision are introduced.

본 논문은 고속 PDE 알고리즘을 제안한다. 기존 PDE 알고리즘이 부분 정합오차를 이용해 후보블록의 나머지 정합 과정을 생략할 수 없을 때 제안된 알고리즘은 계산된 부분 정합오차로부터 예측된 블록 정합오차를 이용해 다시 한번 나머지 정합 과정을 생략하는 것을 평가한다. 예측된 블록 정합오차는 부분 정합오차보다 항상 크므로 제안된 알고리즘은 기존 PDE보다 일찍 불가능한 후보 블록을 제거할 수 있다. 모의 실험의 결과들은 제안된 알고리즘이 기존 PDE 정도의 화질을 유지하면서 계산량을 크게 줄여주는 것을 보여준다.

One of the most important things for quality to meet ship-production schedule is an accuracy control. A ship is assembled by welding through whole production process, so it is important that loss by correction will not happen as much as possible by using some engineering skills like reverse design, reverse setting and margin for thermal shrinkage. These efforts are a quite effective in fabrication stages, but not in erection stages. If a ship block which consists of common steel is exposed to directional solar radiation, its dimensional accuracy will change high as time by its thermal expansion coefficient. Therefore, the measuring work would be often done at dawn or evening even with having a very accurate device. In this study, an FE analysis method is developed to solve this problem. It can change measured data affected by solar thermal distortion to ones not, even though ship-block is measured at an arbitrary time. It will use the time when measuring, the direction of block and the weather record by satellites. It is confirmed by a comparison between measured data of a ship-block and the result by suggested analysis method. Furthermore, a pre-processing system is also developed for fast application of the suggested analysis method.

There exists a transform trellis code that is optimal for stationary Gaussian sources and the squared-error distortion measure at all rates. In this paper, we train an asymptotically optimal version of such a code to obtain one which is matched better to the statistics of real world data. The training algorithm uses the M-algorithm to search the trellis codebook and the LBG-algorithm to update the trellis codebook. To adapt the codebook for the varying input data. we use two gain-adaptive methods. The gain-adaptive scheme 1, which normalizes input block data by its gain factor, is applied to images at rate 0.5 bits/pixel. When each block is encoded at the same rate, the nonstationarity among the block variances leads to a variation in the resulting distortion from one block to another. To alleviate the non-uniformity among the encoded image, we design four clusters from the block power, in which each cluster has its own trellis codebook and different rates. The rate of each cluster is assigned through requiring a constant distortion per-letter. This gain-adaptive scheme 2 produces good visual and measurable quality at low rates.

The H.264/AVC standard has adopted new coding tools such as intra-prediction, variable block size, motion estimation with quarter-pixel-accuracy, loop filter, and so on. The adoption of these tools enables an H.264/AVC-coded bitstream to have more information than was possible with previous standards. In this paper, we propose an effective spatial error concealment method with low complexity in H.264/AVC intra-frame. From information included in an H.264/AVC-coded bitstream, we use prediction modes of intra-blocks to recover a damaged block. This is because the prediction direction in each prediction mode is highly correlated to the edge direction. We first estimate the edge direction of a damaged block using the prediction modes of the intra-blocks adjacent to a damaged block and classify the area inside the damaged block into edge and flat areas. Our method then recovers pixel values in the edge area using edge-directed interpolation, and recovers pixel values in the flat area using weighted interpolation. Simulation results show that the proposed method yields better video quality than conventional approaches.

본 논문은 integral equation-fast Fourier transform(IE-FFT)과 block matrix preconditioner(BMP)를 이용하여 침투 가능한 구조물의 전자기 산란 문제를 다룬다. IE-FFT는 모멘트 법(the method of Moments : MoM)에 의해 형성된 행렬방정식의 해를 계산하기 위하여 반복법의 연산량을 상당히 개선할 수 있다. 또한 전기적으로 커다란 구조물로부터 형성된 행렬방정식에 BMP가 적용된 반복법을 적용하면 반복 횟수를 크게 줄여 행렬방정식의 해를 빠르게 계산할 수 있다. 수치해석 결과는 IE-FFT와 BMP를 적용하여 침투 가능한 구조물의 전자기 산란 문제를 빠르고 정확하게 계산할 수 있음을 보여준다.

본 논문에서는 블록기반으로 부호화된 비디오 영상에서 전송 오류로 인하여 발생하는 화질저하를 개선하기 위하여 인과적 블록경계 정합법을 사용하여 효율적으로 복호가능 오류를 검출하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법에서는 먼저 현재 블록의 경계들과 인과적 주위블록외 경계들간 부정합 전력을 계산한다. 다음, 이렇게 구한 부정합 전력들 중 하나라도 인과적 주위 블록들의 통계적 특성을 사용하여 적응적으로 구한 역치보다 크면 오류가 있는 것으로 판단한다. 실제로 H.263으로 부호화된 비디오를 가지고 $10^{-3}$-$10^{-4}$ BERs에서 16비트 연속적인 비트 에러를 가지는 환경에서 제안한 방법을 적용하였다. 기존의 블록경계정합 오류검출법의 하나인 Zeng의 방법과 비교하면, 에러 검출율의 향상은 최대 20%, 그리고 검출된 오류를 은닉 처리한 결과영상의 PSNR 향상은 최대 3.5㏈임을 보여준다.

블록정합에서 방대한 계산을 줄이기 위해, 본 논문은 탐색영역에서 탐색점을 제한하는 고속 블록정합 알고리즘을 제안한다. 대부분의 움직임 벡터가 탐색영역 중심부에 위치하고, 정합오차가 최적의 유사블록을 향해 단조감소한다는 사실에 근거하여 제안된 알고리즘은 단계 사이에 정합패턴을 1 화소 단위로 이동하고, 이전 단계들에서 결정된 유사블록들로부터 최적의 유사블록을 향한 움직임을 예측하고, 탐색점들의 움직임을 움직임 방향에 대해 ${\pm}45^{\circ}C$로 제한한다. 그 결과 불필요한 탐색점을 제거할 수 있었고 블록정합 계산을 줄일 수 있었다. 기존 유사 고속 알고리즘과 비교하여 제안된 알고리즘은 큰 움직임을 갖는 영상에서 미미한 화질 저하를 발생시키지만 보통 움직임을 갖는 영상에서 동등한 화질을 유지하고, 반면에 그들의 블록정합 계산을 적게는 20% 많게는 67%를 줄여 주었다.
