This paper proposes on the technical blocking method of Internet harmful pornographic sites which is the most Internet negative-function. At Present, most technical methods based on web sites back-searching or words filtering for blocking the pornographic Internet sites have limitations. For this, this paper proposes the acoustic and image based blocking method for filtering harmful Internet sites. For this, sexual main body parts are extracted by texture analysis and curve fitting. Also acoustic signals are analyzed using pratt tool and auto-correlation function is adopted for matching between prototype signals and test signals. Finally, the effectiveness of this paper is demostrated by several experiments.

This paper presents the flow characteristics of a ball valve used for a gas pipeline. Understanding of the internal flow of a ball valve is an important to analyze the physical phenomena of the valve. Present experimental study was performed by IEC 60534-2-3, the international standard for an industrial control valve testing procedure. Pressure measured at upstream and downstream of the valve, flow-rate and gas temperature passing the inside of the gas pipeline were measured with respect to valve opening rates. Throughout the experimental measurement of the ball valve, empirical equation of the pressure drop between the ball valve according to the mass flow rates is successively obtained using a polynomial curve fitting method. In addition, flow coefficient for determining the valve capacity is also analyzed with respect to valve opening rates using the curve fitting method.

Coefficient of spherical aberration of the objective lens in the KBSI-HVEM was evaluated by diffractogram method. Instrumental resolution was also discussed with this method. In order to improve the accuracy, digital processing and graphical curve fitting for intensity profile of diffractogram were employed. Experimental concerns where the optimal procedure of the measurement con be accomplished for this study were discussed. The spherical aberration coefficient $(C_s)$ was estimated to be $2.628{\pm}0.04\;mm$ from this study, which was almost coincident with the value of the manufacture's suggestion $(C_s=2.65\;mm)$.

This paper describes development and validation processes of a low-cost hardware based flight control computer designed for multi-rotor UAVs. The developed flight control computer controls multi-rotors stable and can handle complex flight missions using an integrated high-performance Linux computer. A complementary filter generates a navigation solution with 500 Hz, and a proposed observer significantly reduces measurement noise. A control algorithm utilizes a feed-forward term computed by a three-dimensional curve fitting method, and it increases tracking performance. The developed flight control system has been fully tested through several test flights, and it can apply to real flight environments.

In order to reduce the time and costs of improving the performance of vehicle suspensions, the techniques for optimizing damping and air spring characteristic were proposed. A full vehicle model for a bus is constructed with a car body, front and rear suspension linkages, air springs, dampers, tires, and a steering system. An air spring and a damper are modeled with nonlinear characteristics using experimental data and a curve fitting technique. The objective function for ride quality is WRMS (Weighted RMS) of the power spectral density of the vertical acceleration at the driver's seat, middle seat and rear seat. The objective function for handling performance is the RMS (Root Mean Squares) of the roll angle, roll rate, yaw rate, and lateral acceleration at the center of gravity of a body during a lane change. The design variables are determined by damping coefficients, damping exponents and curve fitting parameters of air spring characteristic curves. The Taguchi method is used in order to investigate sensitivity of design variables. Since ride and handling performances are mutually conflicting characteristics, the validity of the developed optimum design procedure is demonstrated by comparing the trends of ride and handling performance indices with respect to the ratio of weighting factors. The global criterion method is proposed to obtain the solution of multi-objective optimization problem.

Buck-Boost LLC (BBLLC) converters based on a PWM + phase control strategy are good candidates for high efficiency, high power density and wide input range applications. Nevertheless, they suffer from large computational complexity when it comes to calculating the optimal phase for ZVS of all the switches. In this paper, a method is proposed for a microcontroller unit (MCU) to calculate the optimal phase quickly and accurately. Firstly, a 2-D lookup table of the phase is established with an index of the input voltage and output current. Then, a bilinear interpolation method is applied to improve the accuracy. Meanwhile, simplification of the phase equation is presented to reduce the computational complexity. When compared with conventional curve-fitting and LUT methods, the proposed method makes the best tradeoff among the accuracy of the optimal phase, the computation time and the memory consumption of the MCU. Finally, A 350V-420V input, 24V/30A output experimental prototype is built to verify the proposed method. The efficiency can be improved by 1% when compared with the LUT method, and the computation time can be reduced by 13.5% when compared with the curve-fitting method.

In this study, the numerical investigation of nonlinear flow in a porous medium was carried out. The applied numerical model is ANSYS CFX which is a three-dimensional fluid dynamic model, and the verification of this model was carried out by using the experimental data obtained from Mayer et al works(2011). The experimental and numerical results of velocity and Reynolds number-friction coefficient relationship show relatively a good agreement. Based on the experimental results, we analysed numerically the velocity and Reynolds number-friction coefficient relationship with the variation of permeability, dynamic viscosity and porosity and quantitatively the variation by applying the best curve fitting for each case.

The Kachanov-Rabotnov (K-R) creep model was proposed to accurately model the long-term creep curves above $10^5$ hours of Alloy 617. To this end, a series of creep data was obtained from creep tests conducted under different stress levels at $950^{\circ}C$. Using these data, the creep constants used in the K-R model and the modified K-R model were determined by a nonlinear least square fitting (NLSF) method, respectively. The K-R model yielded poor correspondence with the experimental curves, but the modified K-R model provided good agreement with the curves. Log-log plots of ${\varepsilon}^{\ast}$-stress and ${\varepsilon}^{\ast}$-time to rupture showed good linear relationships. Constants in the modified K-R model were obtained as ${\lambda}$=2.78, and $k=1.24$, and they showed behavior close to stress independency. Using these constants, long-term creep curves above $10^5$ hours obtained from short-term creep data can be modeled by implementing the modified K-R model.

Inductive power transfer (IPT) is an attractive power transmission solution that is already used in many applications. In the IPT system, optimal coil design is essential to achieve high power efficiency, but the effective design method is yet to be investigated. The inductance formula and finite element method (FEM) are popular means to link the coil geometric parameters and circuit parameters; however, the former lacks generality and accuracy, and the latter consumes much computation time. This study proposes a novel coil design method to achieve speed and generality without much loss of accuracy. By introducing one-turn permeance simulation in each FEM phase combined with curve fitting and optimization by MATLAB in the efficiency calculation phase, the iteration number of FEM can be considerably reduced, and the generality can be retained. The proposed method is verified through a 100 W IPT system experiment.

The shape of TL glow curve is a useful indicator for assurance of correct reading of the personal dosimeter. Since the reading procedure of TLD is irreversible, however, an analytic remedy should be considered to procure reliable dosimetric information for the readings with irregular glow con shape. In this study, kinetic trapping parameters of CaSO$_4$ : Dy Teflon personal dosimeter(Teledyne PB-6A) were analyzed by Halperin and Braner's model for general-order kinetics. From these kinetic tapping parameters, we also developed a simple procedure to retrieve the dosimetric information from abnormally distorted glow curves. The computerized glow curve deconvolution(CGCD) fitting of the reference glow curve with kinetic parameters from this study yields relative errors of about 5% from the expected integral. It was also found that the glow curve remedial procedure developed could retrieve the distorted TL glow curves within ewer ranges of 1575. With the glow curve retrieval techniques, doses incurred by gamma radiation can now be successfully re-constructed for the CaSO$_4$ : Dy Teflon dosimeter resulting abnormal glow curves.
