This paper deals with an extended analytical solution for the mixture solidification problem, in which temperature is inherently coupled with the solute transport due to the presence of volume contraction induced flow. A new exact solution to the energy equation accounting for the convection effect in the melt is successfully derived, which allows the present analysis to cover a high initial superheating. Difference in properties between the solid and liquid phases is rigorously incorporated into the model equations in the solid fraction weighted form. Taking advantage of linearized correction factors, a systematic and easy-to-implement algorithm for determining the solidus and liquidus positions is introduced, which proves not only to converge stably but also to be very efficient. For a specific case, the present results show excellent agreements with the existing solution. The effect of convection in the melt becomes appreciable with increasing the initial superheating. It is revealed that variable properties in the mushy region significantly affect the solidification behaviors. The present study is also capable of resolving the interaction between microsegregation and macrosegregation.

펄스옥시메트리는 서로 다른 두 파장의 빛을 이용하여 동맥혈의 산소포화도를 측정하는 비침습성의 광에 의한 측정 방법이다. 동맥혈의 맥동성분은 정맥혈, 피부 그리고 기타의 비맥동성분들에 의해 감쇠되는 직류 성분에 중첩되어 있다. 본 논문에서는 맥동 성분의 적분비를 이용하여 산소포화도를 계산하는 알고리즘을 사용하였다. 알고리즘에서는, 심장의 수축과 관련되는 맥동신호의 1/2 싸이클만을 이용한다. 이용하는 시간은 1 cycle의 약 1/4이다. 1/4 주기를 이용하는 본 알고리즘은 기존의 방식과 유사한 결과가 나타났다. 신호의 진폭이 낮고, 시간의 점유가 많은 부분을 계산에서 배제했기 때문에, 동잡음의 영향이 감소되었다.

In China, agricultural irrigation water often contains a lot of suspended sediment which may cause the nozzle wear. In this study, a new numerical simulation combing the Discrete Phase Model and a remeshing algorithm was conducted. The geometric boundary deformation caused by the erosion wear, was considered. The weight loss of the nozzle, the node displacement and the flow field were investigated and discussed. The timestep sensitivity analysis showed that the timestep is very critical in the erosion modeling due to the randomness and the discreteness of the erosion behavior. Based on the simulation results, the major deformation of the boundary wall due to the erosion was found at the corners between outlet portion and contraction portion. Based on this remeshing algorithm, the simulated erosion weight loss of the nozzle is 4.62% less compared with the case without boundary deformation. The boundary deformation changes the pressure and velocity distribution, and eventually changes the sediment distribution inside the nozzle. The average turbulence kinetic energy at the outlet orifice is found to decrease with the erosion time, which is believed to change the nozzle's spray performance eventually.

골반저근은 골반기관을 지지하는 기능을 가지고 있으며 요자제를 유지하는 여성의 주요 하부조직이다. 골반저근의 약화는 복압성 요실금의 원인이 되는데, 이러한 골반저근의 기능 정도는 복압성 요실금의 병증정도를 평가하는 지표로 사용될 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 골반저근의 수축 압력을 측정하여 복압성 요실금의 병적 진행정도를 정량적으로 진단할 수 있는 요실금 진단 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 이를 위하여 골반저근의 수축압력 정보를 측정할 수 있는 시스템을 제작하였으며, 측정된 데이터의 특징 분석을 위한 측정 프로토콜을 제안하였다. 복압성 요실금 환자로부터 획득한 데이터를 이용하여 5개의 진단 파라미터를 추출하였으며, 이를 이용한 진단 알고리즘을 구현하였다. 임상시험을 통하여 진단 알고리즘의 정확성을 평가한 결과 80%의 정확성을 보였으며, 20%의 위양성 진단 결과를 보였다. 반면에 위음성 진단 결과는 확인되지 않았다. 본 연구에서 제안한 요실금 진단 알고리즘은 복압성 요실금의 병적 진행 정도를 정량적으로 진단할 수 있으며, 요실금 진단 시스템 개발에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

최근, 새로운 영상 부호화로서 프랙탈 부호화가 높은 압축률의 가능성으로 폭넓게 연구되고 있다. 프랙탈 부호화는 초기에 흑백 영상과 선영상의 압축 방식으로서 검토되었다. 더욱이 Jacquin은 프랙탈 변환(LIFS)을 제안하여 프랙탈 부호화를 농담 영상으로 확장하였다. 현재, Gram-Schmidt 직교화 방식을 이용한 YTKT의 LIFS방식 등은 정지 영상 압축의 국제표준 방식인 JPEG와 경합이 가능할 정도의 압축률이 얻어졌다. 본 연구에서는 YTKT방식의 직교화 연산 알고리즘의 연산량을 크게 삭감할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다.

A semi-Lagrangian finite element scheme with objective time stepping algorithm for solving viscoelastic flow problem is presented. The convection terms in the momentum and constitutive equations are treated using a quasi-monotone semi-Lagrangian scheme, in which characteristic feet on a regular grid are traced backwards over a single time-step. Concerned with the generalized midpoint rule type of algorithms formulated to exactly preserve objectivity, we use the geometric transformation such as pull-back, push-forward operation. The method is applied to the 4:1 planar contraction problem for an Oldroyd B fluid for both creeping and inertial flow conditions.

A system of nonlinear variational inclusions involving general H-monotone operators in Banach spaces is introduced. Using the resolvent operator technique, we suggest an iterative algorithm for finding approximate solutions to the system of nonlinear variational inclusions, and establish the existence of solutions and convergence of the iterative algorithm for the system of nonlinear variational inclusions.

In this paper, we present a technique for obtaining conflict-free schedules for real-time automation protocol for industrial Ethernet (RAPIEnet) switches. Mathematical model of the switch is obtained using graph theory. Initially network traffic entry and exit parts in a single RAPIEnet switch are identified, so that a bipartite conflict graph can be constructed. The obtained conflict graph is transformed to three kinds of matrices to be used as inputs for our simulation model, and selection of any of the matrix forms is application-specific. A greedy edge-coloring algorithm is used to schedule the network traffic and to solve the minimum coloring problem. After scheduling, empty slots are identified for forwarding the non real-time traffic of asynchronous devices. Finally, an algorithm for synchronizing the schedules of adjacent switches is proposed using edge-contraction and minors. All simulations were carried out using Matlab.

In this paper, we apply and evolutionary computation(EC), probabilistic optimization algorithm, to active contour. A number of problems exist associated with such as algorithm initialization, existence of local minima, non-convex search space, and the selection of model parameters in conventional models. We propose an adequate fitness function for these problems. The determination of fitness function adequate to active contour using EC is important in search capability. As a result of applying the proposed method to non-convex object shape, we improve the unstability and contraction phenomena, in nature, of snake generated in deformable contour optimization.

This study uses a muscle activation sensor and elbow joint model to develop an estimation algorithm for human elbow joint torque for use in a human-robot interface. A modular-type MVS (Muscle Volume Sensor) and calibration algorithm are developed to measure the muscle activation signal, which is represented through the normalization of the calibrated signal of the MVS. A Hill-type model is applied to the muscle activation signal and the kinematic model of the muscle can be used to estimate the joint torques. Experiments were performed to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm by isotonic contraction motion using the KIN-COM$^{(R)}$ equipment at 5, 10, and 15Nm. The algorithm and its feasibility for use as a human-robot interface are verified by comparing the joint load condition and the torque estimated by the algorithm.
