This paper proposes a sketch drawing system called m-shaper for musical shape generation. Through simple sketch drawing, users can generate musical shape configuration which can be played by a computer. One key ingredient of the process is a unique concept for the interactive musical shape generation that combines shape and sound based on the designers' manual inputs. m-shaper captures the numerical values of drawing characteristics and determines how the musical notes and shapes can be generated. Using a tablet, four sketch movements are captured such as pressure, tilt, rotation and speed. Each point of a shape corresponds to a certain musical note that represents a type of instrument, duration, pitch, and octave. The current m-shaper has been developed as a computational tool for supporting the schematic design process. Designers in m-shaper draw geometric sketches with a musical inspiration and explore possible conceptual forms. They also can control the parameters for results and transform their sketch drawing.

Advances in wireless networking, micro-fabrication and integration, and embedded microprocessors have enabled a new generation of massive-scale sensor networks. Because each sensor node is limited in size and capacity, it is very important to design a new simple and energy efficient protocol. Among conventional sensor networks' routing protocols, the directed diffusion scheme is widely blown because of its simplicity. This scheme, however, has a defect in that sending interest and exploratory data messages while setting connection paths consumes much energy because of its flooding scheme. Therefore, this paper proposes a new sensor network routing protocol, called sequenced directed diffusion with a threshold control, which compromises the conventional directed diffusion scheme's defect and offers an energy efficient routing idea. With a computer simulation, its performance is evaluated and compared to the conventional directed diffusion scheme. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme offers energy efficiency while routing packets, and resolves ill-balanced energy consumption among sensor nodes.

This study analyzes machining characteristics and presents optimal cutting conditions by measuring the surface roughness, dimensional accuracy, and dimension straightness based on the feed rate after processing the inner diameter hall of SCM415 steel using an automatic CNC(Computerized Numerical Control) lathe. The testing material was cut using an 11.8 mm-diameter Chamdrill after mounting the 32 mm-diameter round bar on an automatic CNC lathe. The cut depth was set at 3 mm, and the cutting speed was fixed at 1500 rpm. The surface roughness, dimensional accuracy, and dimension straightness of 15 testings were measured by changing the feed rate to 0.05, 0.1, and 0.15 mm/rev, respectively. It was difficult to process more than 15 tests during the maching due to noise or break. Additionally, the optimum cutting of SCM415 steel showed excellent surface roughness in the 10^th and 11^th of testing at cutting speed and feed speed of 1500 rpm and 0.05 mm/rev, respectively. The dimensional accuracy was measured in three dimensions after drilling, which showed good results with an average range of 0.0138-0.0208 mm. Moreover, the lower the feed speed, the higher the accuracy. Additionally, the measurement results of the dimensional straightness showed that the straightness is the straightness was the best at the 1^th and 2^th cutting regardless of the feed speed.

Recently, a computer numerical control (CNC) machine is used widely for mold making in various industries. In the operation of a CNC machine, the production quality and safety of workers are becoming increasingly important as the product process increases. A variety of tool life prediction studies has been conducted to standardize the quality of production and improve reproducibility. When the tool life is predicted using the conventional tool life equation, there is a large error between the experimental result and result by the conventional tool life equation. In this paper, an algorithm that can predict the precise tool life was implemented using a genetic algorithm.

CNC(Computer Numerical Control) machine tools are being used in various industrial fields such as aircraft and automobiles. The machining conditions used in the mold industry are used, and the simulation and the experiment are compared. The tool used in the experiment was carried out to increase the reliability of the simulation of the cutting machining. The program used in the 3D-FEM (finite element method) was the AdvantEdge and predicted by down-milling. The tool model is used 3D-FEM simulation by using the cutting force, temperature prediction. In this study, we carried out the verification of cutting force by using a 3-axis tool dynamometer (Kistler 9257B) system when machining the plastic mold Steel machining of NAK-80. The cutting force experiment data using on the charge amplifier (5070A) is amplified, and the 3-axis cutting force data are saved as a TDMS file using the Lab-View based program using on NI-PXIe-1062Q. The machining condition 7 was the most similar to the simulation and the experimental results. The material properties of the NAK-80 material and the simulation trends reflected in the reverse design of the tool were derived similarly to the experimental results.

Safety measures for tower cranes are extremely important among the seismic countermeasures at high-rise building construction sites. In particular, the collapse of a tower crane from a high position is a very serious catastrophe. An example of such an accident due to an earthquake is the case of the Taipei 101 Building (the author was the project director), which occurred on March 31, 2002. Failure of the bolted joints of the tower-crane mast was the direct cause of the collapse. Therefore, it is necessary to design for this eventuality and to take the necessary measures on construction sites. This can only be done by understanding the precise dynamic behavior of mast joints during an earthquake. Consequently, we created a new hybrid-element model (using beam, shell, and solid elements) that not only expressed the detailed behavior of the site joints of a tower-crane mast during an earthquake but also suppressed any increase in the total calculation time and revealed its behavior through computer simulations. Using the proposed structural model and simulation method, effective information for designing safe joints during earthquakes can be provided by considering workability (control of the bolt pretension axial force and other factors) and less construction cost. Notably, this analysis showed that the joint behavior of the initial pretension axial force of a bolt is considerably reduced after the axial force of the bolt exceeds the yield strength. A maximum decrease of 50% in the initial pretension axial force under the El Centro N-S Wave ($v_{max}=100cm/s$) was observed. Furthermore, this method can be applied to analyze the seismic responses of general temporary structures in construction sites.

High power lasers provide a controllable and precise energy source in surface transformation hardening. A careful control of the process is needed in order that the surface layer of the material reaches the austenizing temperature, but that it does not melt. In order to achieve this the results of theoretical and experimental studies on the laser surface hardening of a medium carbon steel are described. A two-dimensional computer program, which can be used generally for the determination of transient temperature distributions in welding and heat treatment, was established on the basis of the finite element method. For the confirmation of the accuracy of the numerical analysis, a medium carbon steel (SM 45C) of 5mm thickness was heat-treated with a 1kW CW CO$_{2}$ laser machine, while the traverse speed and the distance from the focal point (defocused distance) were varied. Experimental and numerical results showed a similar tendency in correlations between the hardened zone shape and the process parameters. With increasing beam spot diameter the width and depth of the hardened zone increased for relatively small beam spot diameters, but decreased rapidly after reaching the maximum value, while with increasing traverse speed the width and depth of the hardened zone decreased monotonously. Too small beam spot diameters are to be avoided, since the surface melting would lower the surface hardness and produce an uneven surface which may be unacceptable because of the possible requirement for subsequent machining. It could be observed that for a given traverse speed and laser power input there exists a optimal range of the beam spot diameter, which produce a large width of the hardened zone but no melting on the surface.

For the safety messages in IEEE 802.11p vehicles network environment(WAVE), strict periodic beacon broadcasting requires status advertisement to assist the driver for safety. WAVE standards apply multiple radios and multiple channels to provide open public road safety services and improve the comfort and efficiency of driving. Although WAVE standards have been proposed multi-channel multi-radio, the standards neither consider the WAVE multi-radio environment nor its effect on the beacon broadcasting. Most of beacon broadcasting is designed to be delivered on only one physical device and one control channel by the WAVE standard. also conflict-free channel assignment of the fewest channels to a given set of radio nodes without causing collision is NP-hard, even with the knowledge of the network topology and all nodes have the same transmission radio. Based on the latest standard IEEE 802.11p and IEEE 1609.4, this paper proposes an interference aware-based channel assignment algorithm with Nash bargaining solution that minimizes interference and increases throughput with wireless mesh network, which is deigned for multi-radio multi-cahnnel structure of WAVE. The proposed algorithm is validated against numerical simulation results and results show that our proposed algorithm is improvements on 8 channels with 3 radios compared to Tabu and random channel allocation algorithm.

A nonporous hollow fiber membrane contactor was used to control the concentration of oxygen dissolved in an aqueous solution, which was predicted along the hollow fiber membrane using a computer simulation. The governing ordinary differential equations were derived for the occurrent flows of the feed aqueous solution and the feed gas mixture in a membrane contactor and they were numerically solved using the 5th Runge-Kutta-Verner method with a personal computer, where the program was coded utilizing a software of the Compaq Visual Fortran 6.6. It is found that the concentration of oxygen dissolved in water increases from 30 to 64 ppm as the length of the hollow fiber increases from 0.4 to 1.2 m when the membrane of fibers are equal to be 16,000; the flow rate of the feed gas is kept to be 0.536 mol/sec; its pressure is maintained to be 486 kPa; the flow rate of the water is 16.69 mol/sec. As the flow rate of the water increases from 9.26 to 26.85 mol/sec, the concentration of oxygen decreases from 40 to 20 ppm with the constant fiber length of 0.4 m. Finally, it is observed that the concentration of oxygen increases from 33 to 69 ppm as the pressure of the feed gas increases from 298 to 847 kPa.
