The engine-out flow is highly transient and hot, and may place tremendous thermal and inertial loads on a closed-coupled catalyst. Therefore, time-dependent and detailed flow and thermal field simulation may be crucial. The aim of this study is to develop combined chemical reaction and multi-dimensional fluid dynamic mathematical model and to study the effect of unsteady pulsating thermal and flow characteristics on thermal reliability of closed-coupled catalyst. The effect of cell density on the conversion performance under real running condition is also investigated. Unlike previous studies, the present study focuses on coupling between the problems of pulsating flow pattern and catalyst thermal response and conversion efficiency. The results are expressed in terms of temporal evolution of flow, pollutant and temperature distribution as well as transient characteristics of conversion efficiency. Fundamental understanding of the flow and thermal phenomena of closed-coupled catalyst under real running condition is presented. It is shown that instants of significantly low values of flow uniformity and conversion efficiency exist during exhaust blowdown and the temporal varaition of flow uniformity is very similar in pattern to one of conversion efficiency. It is also found that the location of hot spot in monolith is directly affected by transient flow pattern in closed-coupled catalyst.

Recent sequential pattern mining algorithms mine all of the frequent sequences satisfying a minimum support threshold in a large database. However, when a frequent sequence becomes very long, such mining will generate an explosive number of frequent sequence, which is prohibitively expensive in time. In this paper, we proposed a novel sequential pattern algorithm using only closed frequent sequences which are small subset of very large frequent sequences. Our algorithm extends the sequence by depth-first search strategy with effective pruning. Using bitmap representation of underlying databases, we can obtain a closed frequent sequence considerably faster than the currently reported methods.

데이터 마이닝에서 활발히 연구되고 있는 주요 분야들 가운데 하나인 빈발 패턴 마이닝은 대규모의 데이터 집합 또는 데이터베이스로부터 숨겨진 유용한 패턴 정보를 추출하기 위한 방법이다. 또한 이 기법으로 얻을 수 있는 결과물을 통해 데이터베이스내의 다양하고 중요한 특징들을 더욱 손쉽게 자동적으로 분석할 수 있기 때문에 많은 응용영역에도 활발히 적용되고 있다. 하지만 이러한 데이터베이스로부터 단순히 사용자에 의해 설정된 최소 지지도 임계값만을 가지고 이를 만족하는 모든 패턴들을 추출하는 기존의 전통적인 빈발 패턴 마이닝 방식은 데이터베이스의 특성과 임계값 설정의 정도에 따라 극도로 많은 수의 결과 패턴을 생성하는 문제를 가지며, 이에 따른 시간 및 공간 자원의 낭비를 초래한다. 또한 과도하게 생성된 패턴에 대한 분석의 어려움 역시 심각한 문제가 된다. 기존의 빈발 패턴 마이닝 접근방법들이 직면한 이러한 문제를 해결하고자, 데이터베이스로부터 가능한 모든 빈발 패턴들을 마이닝하는 것이 아닌, 이들에 대한 대표 패턴들만은 선별적으로 추출할 수 있도록 하는 대표 패턴 마이닝의 개념과 다양한 관련 기법들이 제안되었다. 본 논문에서는 생성되는 각 패턴의 최대성 또는 폐쇄성을 고려하는 패턴 압축 기법들에 대한 특성들을 기술하고, 이에대한 비교 및 분석을 진행한다. 최대 빈발 패턴 혹은 닫힌 빈발 패턴들을 마이닝함으로써, 효과적인 패턴 압축이 가능하며, 더 적은 시공간 자원으로 마이닝 작업을 수행할 수 있다. 또한 압축된 패턴들은 필요시 다시 원래의 패턴 형태로 복구가 가능한 특징이 있으며, 특히 닫힌 패턴 접근 방법을 이용하면 패턴을 압축하고 다시 해제하는 과정에서 어떠한 정보의 손실도 일어나지 않는다. 본 논문에서는 같은 플랫폼 상에서 동일한 구현 수준의 알고리즘에 대해 실세계로부터 축적된 실 데이터셋들을 가지고 상기 기법들에 대한 성능평가를 진행함으로써, 각 기법이 패턴 생성, 수행 시간, 메모리 사용량과 같은 실제적인 마이닝 성능에 대해 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대한 심층적 분석결과를 보인다.

순차 패턴 탐사에 대한 연구는 대용량의 데이터베이스에서 사용자에 의해 주어지는 최소 지지도를 만족하는 빈발 시퀀스를 찾는 문제를 다룬다. 하지만 현재까지 이루어진 순차 패턴 탐사 방법은 빈발 시퀀스들의 길이가 길어지거나 최소 지지도가 상대적으로 낮게 주어진 상황에서는 생성되는 시퀀스가 기하급수적으로 많아져서 성능이 급격히 저하되는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서 모든 빈발 시퀀스의 정보를 포함하며 그 수가 현저히 적은 닫힌 빈발 시퀀스를 찾는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 효율적으로 가지치기를 수행하기 위해서 깊이우선 탐색 방법으로 후보 시퀀스를 생성하고 데이터베이스를 비트맵으로 표현하여 비트 연산으로 지지도를 효율적으로 계산한다. 또한, 비트맵으로 표현된 시퀀스 특성을 이용하여 가지치기할 시퀀스를 적은 연산 비용으로 찾을 수 있다. 이런 장점을 통하여 제안한 방법이 지금까지 제안된 알고리즘보다 훨씬 빨리 닫힌 빈발 시퀀스를 찾는 것을 성능 실험을 통하여 확인하였다.

The vortex-drift pattern over a girder surface, actually demonstrating the complex fluid-structure interactions between the structure and surrounding flow, is strongly correlated with the VIVs but has still not been elucidated and may be useful for modeling VIVs. The complex fluid-structure interactions between the structure and surrounding flow are considerably simplified in constructing a vortex model to describe the vortex-drift pattern characterized by the ratio of the vortex-drift velocity to the oncoming flow velocity, considering the aerodynamic work. A spring-suspended sectional model (SSSM) is used to measure the pressure in wind tunnel tests, and the aerodynamic parameters for a typical streamlined closed-box girder are obtained from the spatial distribution of the phase lags between the distributed aerodynamic forces at each pressure point and the vortex-excited forces (VEFs). The results show that the ratio of the vortex-drift velocity to the oncoming flow velocity is inversely proportional to the vibration amplitude in the lock-in region and therefore attributed to the "lock-in" phenomena of the VIVs. Installing spoilers on handrails can destroy the regular vortex-drift pattern along the girder surface and thus suppress vertical VIVs.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of arm flexion patterns of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation on muscle activation in the contralateral lower extremity. Open kinematic chain and closed kinematic chain positions were used. Methods: This study used an electromyogram (MP150, Biopac Systems, USA) to measure muscle activation in 20 healthy male students. Comparative analysis was completed on muscle activation of the vastus lateralis, biceps femoris, tibialis anterior, and gastrocnemius of the contralateral lower extremity. Open kinematic chain and closed kinematic chain positions were used with a unilateral arm flexion-abduction-external rotation pattern. Paired t-tests using the SPSS 12.0 for Windows analyzed the data produced by the electromyogram. Results: There was a statistically significant difference in muscle activation in the biceps femoris, gastrocnemius, and tibialis anterior when the open kinematic chain and closed kinematic chain positions were compared (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The biceps femoris, gastrocnemius, and tibialis anterior muscles showed greater muscle activation in the closed kinematic chain position when compared to the open kinematic chain position.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of forward-and-backward shift trunk exercise using a proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) diagonal pattern in a closed kinematic chain exercise on the upper limb function and activity of daily living (ADL) in a stroke patient. Methods: One subject participated in this study. The study used a reversal A-B-A' design, where A and A' were the baseline period (no intervention), and B was the intervention period. The intervention was a forward-and-backward trunk shift exercise, using a PNF diagonal pattern on both a stand-on-hand position and a quadruped position of closed kinematic chain exercises, for 20 min per day for 2 weeks. The range of motion (ROM) of the shoulder joint was measured and a Fugl-Meyer assessment of upper extremity (FMA-UE) and a functional independence measure (FIM) were performed to measure upper limb function and activity of daily living (ADL). Results: ROMs of shoulder joint (flexion, extension, abduction, and external rotation) increased in the intervention phase. The FMA-UE score increased (from 28 to 36) in the intervention phase. The FIM score increased (from 20 to 25) in the intervention phase. These increases were maintained after intervention (Baseline II). Conclusion: These results suggest that forward-and-backward shift trunk exercises using a PNF diagonal pattern in a closed kinematic chain exercise have a positive effect on stroke patients' upper limb function and ADL ability.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of leg muscle activation by applying proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) arm patterns to unilateral upper extremities under the condition of both open and closed kinetic chains in a seated position. Methods: Twenty-two healthy subjects participated in this study. Four PNF patterns were applied to each subject's unilateral upper extremity. EMG data were collected from the vastus medialis, biceps femoris, tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius. The measured EMG data were digitized and processed to root mean square (RMS) and expressed as percentage maximal voluntary isometric contraction (%MVIC). The data were analyzed using two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with repeated measures to determine the statistical significance. Results: The results of this study were summarized as follows: Firstly, in comparison to muscle activation of the biceps femoris, there was a significant increase in the D2 flexion pattern when it was compared with D2 extension pattern and when it was compared with D1 flexion pattern (p<.05). Secondly, there was a significant increase in the muscle activation of the vastus medialis and tibialis anterior with a closed kinetic chain rather than an open kinetic chain (p<.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, in order to increase muscle activation of the biceps femoris, the D2 flexion pattern can be applied, regardless of kinetic chain. In addition, in order to increase muscle activation of the vastus medialis and tibialis anterior, four arm patterns can be applied with a closed kinetic chain.
