Even though post-processing methods based on projections onto convex sets (POCS) have shown good performance for blocking artifact reduction, it is infeasible to implement POCS for real-time practical applications. This paper proposes DCT domain post-processing method based on POCS. The proposed method shows very similar performance compared to the conventional POCS method, while it reduces tremendously the computational complexity. DCT domain POCS performs the lowpass filtering in the DCT domain, and it removes the inverse DCT and forward DCT modules. Through the investigation of lowpass filtering in the iterative POCS method, we define kth order lowpass filtering which is equivalent to the lowpass filtering in the kth iteration, and the corresponding kth order DCT domain POCS. Simulation results show that the kth order DCT domain POCS without iteration gives very similar performance compared to the conventional POCS with k iterations, while it requires much less computations. Hence the proposed DCT domain POCS method can be used efficiently in the practical post-processing applications with real-time constraints.

We propose an efficient DCT-domain video transcoding algorithm for flexible for bit-rate video communications. Video transcoding provides communication fiexibility by adaptively changing the bit-rate of compressed bit stream. During the transcoding process, adrift error is unavoidable because of the difference between reference images in the series of encoding and decoding. For solving the drift error problem, cascade pixel-domain transcoder (CPDT) has been proposed. CPDT, however, requires highly complex hardware and heavy computational overhead. In this paper we propose a DCT-domain transcoding technique, which enables efficient transcoding without any drift error. The proposed cascade DCT-domain transcoder (CDDT) is realized by new motion compensation and down-sampling methods in the DCT-domain.

We consider the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers (KdVB) equation on the domain [0,11]. We derive a control law which guarantees $L^2$-global exponential stability, $H^3$-global asymptotic stability, and $H^3$-semiglobal exponential stability.

In this study, a numerical prediction on propulsive performance of a ducted propeller in open water condition was carried out by solving Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) equation using computational fluid dynamics(CFD). A configuration of propeller Ka-470 inside duct 19A was considered. Hexahedral grid system was generated by dividing whole computational domain into three separate regions; propeller, duct and outer flow region. A commercial CFD software, ANSYS-CFX was used for numerical simulations. Results were compared with experimental data and showed considerable improvement in accuracy, in comparison to those from surface panel method which is based on potential flow assumption. The results also exhibited the importance of grid system within the gap between the inner surface of duct and blade tip for accurate prediction of propulsive performance of ducted propeller.

This computational study features the transient compressible and inviscid flow analysis on a metallic plasma discharge from the opposing composite electrodes which is subjected to pulsed electric power. The computations have been performed using the flux corrected transport algorithm on the axisymmetric two-dimensional domain of electrode gap and outer space along with the calculation of plasma compositions and thermophysical properties such as plasma electrical conductivity. The mass ablation from aluminum electrode surfaces are modeled with radiative flux from plasma column experiencing intense Joule heating. The computational results shows the highly ionized and highly under-expanded supersonic plasma discharge with strong shock structure of Mach disk and blast wave propagation, which is very similar to muzzle blast or axial plasma jet flows. Also, the geometrical effects of composite electrodes are investigated to compare the amount of mass ablation and penetration depth of plasma discharge.

In this study, seismic response analyses of a MW class wind-turbine have been conducted considering applied wind-loads using advanced computational method based on CFD and FEM. Typical lateral and vertical acceleration levels induced by earthquake is also considered herein. Practical numerical method for seismic response analysis of wind-turbine tower models are presented in the time-domain and the effects of wind load and seismic excitation for responses are compared to each other. It is importantly shown that possible earthquake effect during typical operating conditions should be taken into account in the design of huge wind-turbine tower systems because of its enormous inertia characteristics for induced maximum stress level.

The purpose of this study is to develop a Puzzle-Based Computer Science Instruction Model and Learning Program and to confirm the effects. To do so, we selected 2 classes with a similar level of pre-computational thinking in elementary schools in the Jeju Province. After that, from 2 classes, we designated the 5th grade students in 'D' elementary school as group A and designated students of the same grade in 'J' elementary school as group B. In a total of 28 sessions during an 18 week period, a Puzzle-Based Computer Science Learning Program was used with 31 students in group A, and the traditional computer science course was used with 25 students in group B. The results showed that there were significant improvements in computational thinking, which is computational cognition and its creativity, of the students in group A compared to students in group B. Also, this study proved that the Puzzle-Based program correlated with positive changes group A students' Science-Related Affective Domain. In this paper, on the basis of proven effectiveness, we introduce the Puzzle-Based Computer Science Instruction Model and Learning Program as an alternative to traditional, computer science education.

A numerical study is carried out to analyze the steady three-dimensional turbulent flow and convective heat transfer in a staggered pin-fin array with diamond shaped elements at various geometrical configurations. Steady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and energy equation are solved using a finite volume based solver. Shear stress transport (SST) model is used as turbulence closure. The computational domain is composed of one pitch of pin-fin displacement with periodic boundary conditions on the surfaces normal to the streamwise direction and the cross-streamwise direction. The numerical results for Nusselt number and friction factor are validated with experimental results. The effects of pin angle, pin height and pitch on Nusselt number, friction factor and efficiency index are investigated.
