  • The viscoelastic layer material is widely used to control the noise and vibration characteristics of the panel structure. This paper describes the design technology of the effective vibration damping treatment using the concept of the equivalent parameter of viscoelastic layer materials. Applying the equivalent parameter concepts based on theories of shell, it is possible to simulate the finite element analysis of damping layer panel treatments on the vibration characteristics of the structure. And it is achieved the reduced computational cost and the optimal design of topological distribution for the reduction of vibration effect.

  • This letter presents a new polarizer which has a simple comb structure inside a circular waveguide. The electrical performance of the proposed comb polarizer is optimized by a circular waveguide radius and by the physical parameters of the comb plates. This polarizer is suitable for providing good performance in millimeter-band application because of its simple structure and low fabrication cost. In our experiments the dual-band comb polarizer designed in band 1(K) and band 2(Ka) showed good electrical performance without any tuning elements.

  • Controlling for the impacts of main strands of debt maturity theories, we highlight the relationship between syndicated loan maturity and ownership structure of Korean borrowers. We find that as the ownership of large shareholders increases, the maturity of syndicated loans also increases. Additionally, we identify a negative relation between foreigners' ownership and loan maturity, indicating that foreign institutional investors serve valuable monitoring functions; as their equity shares increase, they fully take advantage of frequent renewals through the short maturity of syndicated loan. We also show that the predicted value of leverage is more systematically and positively related to the maturity of syndicated loan.

  • An information structure of large size hypermedia application is usually hierarchical, and the sibling nodes in this structure have same or similar tags and contents. a word "개그" that means the common set of sibling nodes in the hierarchical information structure is used in this paper. It proposes a design method that divides form and content from nodes and it proposes HTML page generation algorithm from forms and contents. This method has reusability of form, maintainability of documents and reduction of cost for authoring.

  • Recently, with the rapid development of location-based techniques, index structures to efficiently manage moving objects have been required. In this paper, we propose a new spatio-temporal index structure that supports a future position retrieval and minimizes a update cost. The proposed index structure combines an assistant index structure that directly accesses current positions of moving objects with KDB-tree that is a space partitioning access method. The internal node in our proposed index structure keeps time parameters in order to support the future position retrieval and to minimize a update cost. Moreover, we propose new update and split methods to maximize the space utilization and the search performance. We perform various experiments to show that our proposed index structure outperforms the existing index structure.

  • Earthquake disaster is dependent upon both site intensity and strength of structures. The higher the strength, structures become more safe, which in turn increases the construction cost. Therefore, it is necessary to decide an optimum design intensity in which the safety is balanced with the cost. Such an optimum design intensity for major man-made structures in Korea is determined in the present study from a simulation model as follows. 1) Hypothetical earthquake time series are generated from the probability distribution to represent appropriately the seismicity of Korea. 2) The strength of structures constructed with a certain design intensity is assumed to exponentially decrease with the elapsed time. The construction cost is also expressed as a function of design intensity. 3) Comparing the seismic intensity generated from the earthquake time series with the strength of structures, the safety of structures is examined. Then the time until the structure is damaged by an earthquake is obtained within the designed life time. 4) The above simulation is iterated several hundred times and hence the mean life time of structures having a certain design intensity is obtained. 5) After all, the optimum design intensity to minimize the annual mean loss, the ratio of construction cost to mean life time, is estimated. The major conclusions obtained from the above simulation model are as follows. 1) Depending upon the designed life time ($T_p$), the optimum design intensities are appeared to be 0. 05-0. 10g for $T_p=50yr$ and 0. 08-0.13g for $T_p=100yr$. 2) According to the sensitivity analysis, the optimum design intensity increases with the rapid strength decrease of structure and decreases with the increase of initial construction cost.

  • Even though software industry has been activated, there lack in results of studies on evaluation effort and cost of software systems including Information Technology Security System (ITSS). In this paper, we present a process and a tool for evaluation effort and cost of ITSS, which are conformed to a ITSS evaluation criteria(i. e., Common Criteria or ISO/IEC 15408), by utilizing Evaluation Work Break-down Structure (EWBS) and conventional software development cost estimation methods. Even though we concentrate on ITSS, results of this paper can be applied to estimation of effort and cost of evaluation of software development process and software products.

  • Machine learning is the process of constructing a cost function using learning data used for learning and an artificial neural network to predict the data, and finding parameters that minimize the cost function. Parameters are changed by using the gradient-based method of the cost function. The more complex the digital signal and the more complex the problem to be learned, the more complex and deeper the structure of the artificial neural network. Such a complex and deep neural network structure can cause over-fitting problems. In order to avoid over-fitting, a weight decay regularization method of parameters is used. We additionally use the value of the cost function in this method. In this way, the accuracy of machine learning is improved, and the superiority is confirmed through numerical experiments. These results derive accurate values for a wide range of artificial intelligence data through machine learning.
