Centrifugal fans are widely used and the noise generated by these machines causes one of the most serious problems. In general, the centrifugal fan noise is often dominated by tones at BPF(blade passage frequency) and its higher harmonics. This is a consequence of the strong interaction between the flow discharged from the impeller and the cutoff in the casing. However, only a few researches have been carried out on predicting the noise due to the difficulty in obtaining detailed information about the flow field and casing effects on noise radiation. The objective of this study is to develop a prediction method for the unsteady flow field and the acoustic pressure field of a centrifugal fan and to calculate the effects of rotating velocity, flow rate, cut-off distance and the number of blades and its effects on the noise of the fan. We assume that the impeller rotates with a constant angular velocity and the flow field around the impeller is incompressible and inviscid. So, a discrete vortex method (DVM) is used to model the centrifugal fan and to calculate the flow field. The force of each element on the blade is calculated with the unsteady Bernoulli equation. Lowson's method is used to predict the acoustic source. The cut-off distance is the most important factor effecting the noise generation. Acoustic pressure is proportional to 2.8, which shows the same scaling index as the experimental result. In this paper, the cut-off distance is found to be the dominant parameter offecting the acoustic pressure.

In this study, we objectively determined whether the ReSTOR as a multifocal IOL (intraocular lens) has a multifocal function compared to the IQ as a monofocal IOL in vivo by OQAS (Optical Quality Analysis System). Eighteen patients who had cataract surgery with implantation of ReSTOR (27 eyes) and 15 patients with IQ (21 eyes), were included inthis study. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA)and distance corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA) were measured. After setting the artificial pupil size to 3 mm, we performed 'Optical quality'. We inputted defocus diopters of (objective spherical refraction)(far), (objective spherical refraction-1.25 D)(intermediate),(objective spherical refraction-2.5 D)(near), and (objective spherical refraction-3.5 D)(very near) into 'selected spherical refraction' simulating the optical quality at far, intermediate, and near distance. We changed the pupil size to 5 mm and repeated the same measurements. The UCDVA and CDVA did not show significant differences between the 2 groups. But, the UCNVA and DCNVA of the ReSTOR group were better than those of the IQ group (p=0.000, p=0.000). For 3 mm pupil, at far distance, modulation transfer function (MTF) cut off and point spread function (PSF) width at 50% of ReSTOR were worse than those of IQ (p=0.039, p=0.020). At intermediate distance, MTF cut off, Strehl ratio and PSF width at 50% of ReSTOR were worse than those of IQ (p=0.001, p=0.001, p=0.000). At near distance, MTF cut off of ReSTOR was worse than that of IQ (p=0.033). At very near distance, MTF cut off and Strehl ratio of ReSTOR were worse than those of IQ (p=0.002, p=0.002), but PSF width at 50% of ReSTOR was better than that of IQ. For 5 mm pupil, most parameters at each distance, there was no significant difference between the 2 groups. Only PSF width at 50% of ReSTOR were worse than those of IQ at intermediate distance (p=0.013). It was impossible to show the multifocal function of ReSTOR compared to the IQ byOQAS.

This study is to analyze the kinematic variables of inward $1{\frac{1}{2}}$ somersault in platform diver. For the manner, 3 people form the national diving team in the year 2000were chosen as the subjects and two S-VHS video cameras set in 60frames/sec were used for recording their motions. Coordinated raw positions data through digitizing are smoothing by butter-worth's low-pass filterin method at a cut off frequency 6.0Hz. and the direct linear transformation(DLT) method was employed to obtain 3-D position coordinates. The conclusions were as follows. However, horizontal distance which is the change of the COG, form the point of the jump to the point of Event 3 where the player is out of the board range completely, Subject B showed 105.1cm and 71.1cm of the vertical distance which are shorter horizontal distance and higher vertical distance, thus, took a great advantage of the position to prepare for the entry. Therefore, if a player takes higher position by speeding up the vertical velocity at the moment of the jumping off the board, and stays in the air longer, the player can have more time to show his skill. Because of the use of the characteristics of the inward somersault, keeping the safe distance form the board is important but in order to higher the completeness, it is ideal to keep the horizontal distance little over 100cm. Also, the angles of shoulder and elbow from Event 1 to 4, depending on swing of the arms, motions in the air, getting ready for the entry, showed some difference individual by individual, according to the velocity of the thigh and shank showed much difference while getting ready and take-off, and it's because of the individual's different bending and straightening for horizontal and vertical distance.

Among various biometrics recognition systems, statistical fingerprint recognition matching methods are considered using minutiae on fingerprints. We define similarity distance measures based on the coordinate and angle of the minutiae, and suggest a fingerprint recognition model following statistical distributions. We could obtain confidence intervals of similarity distance for the same and different persons, and optimal thresholds to minimize two kinds of error rates for distance distributions. It is found that the two confidence intervals of the same and different persons are not overlapped and that the optimal threshold locates between two confidence intervals. Hence an alternative statistical matching method can be suggested by using nonoverlapped confidence intervals and optimal thresholds obtained from the distributions of similarity distances.

국내의 통신망은 효율적인 유지보수를 위하여 도로를 따라 기반시설이 구축되고 있기 때문에 전력망과 통신망의 교차와 병행이 가속화되고 있다. 전력망은 전력유도를 발생시킬 뿐만 아니라, 낙뢰와 같은 전기적 과도현상으로부터 그 자체가 전송매체로 되기 때문에 전력망 지중 접지체와 통신망 지중 접지체간을 통하여 낙뢰서지 및 지락선 과도 현상이 통신망에 유도되어 악영향을 초래한다. 본 연구에서는 통신망의 보호대책으로 지중접지체간의 이격거리를 통한 귀로전류의 차단과 양쪽 단자의 유휴심선을 접지하여 전력유도전압을 차폐하는 방법이 우수한 효과를 나타냄을 확인 할 수 있었다.

This paper presents some results after comparing the characteristics of 3 algorithms, which are discrete Fourier transform based algorithm, least square method, and modified differential approximation algorithm, used at most distance relays all over the world. In case of the DFT based distance relaying algorithm, the length of the algorithm data window and the cut-off frequency of an anti-aliasing low-pass filter adopted are fixed. On the other hand, the data window lengths are changed according to the corresponding low-pass filters in the rest two algorithms. In series of tests, the apparent impedance estimated by the modified differential approximation algorithm shows faster and more stable characteristics of convergence than the two others.

목적: 비구면 다초점 인공수정체인 ReSTOR$^{(R)}$ SN6AD3 삽입안의 시력과 시기능 변화를 분석하였다. 방법: 양안 또는 단안에 비구면 다초점 인공수정체(ReSTOR$^{(R)}$ SN6AD3)를 삽입한 백내장 환자 19명의 30안을 대상으로 하였다. 수술 전, 수술 후 1주일, 1개월 및 3개월 후에 시력과 객관적인 시기능을 측정하였고 수술 3개월 후 인공수정체 삽입안의 시기능 측정값을 동일 연령대의 정상안 20명(38안)과 비교하였다. 원거리 시력은 2 m 거리에서 LCD chart ETDRS 시력표를 이용하여 측정하였고, 중간거리(50 cm)과 근거리(30 cm) 시력은 Jaeger chart를 이용하였다. 객관적인 시기능은 OQAS 장비를 이용하여 OSI (objective scatter index, 객관적 산란지수), MTF (modulation transfer function, 변조전달함수) cut off, Strehl ratio를 4 mm 동공크기에서 측정하여 수술 후 경과기간에 따른 측정값을 비교 평가하였다. 수술 3개월 째 시력 및 시기능은 객관적 평가와 주관적인 평가를 통해 동일 연령대의 정상안과 비교하였다. 결과: 나안 원거리 시력과 OSI, MTF와 Strehl ratio는 다초점 인공수정체 삽입 1개월까지 유의하게 향상되었다(p<0.05). 수술 3개월 후 다초점 인공수정체 삽입안의 MTF와 Strehl ratio는 정상 대조군의 수준으로 회복되었지만, OSI는 대조군보다 높은 값으로 측정되었다(p<0.001). 자각적인 원거리 및 근거리 시력에 대한 만족도는 높았지만, 중간거리 시력에 대한 만족도가 낮으며 눈부심과 빛 번짐 증상이 나타났다. 결론: 비구면 다초점 인공수정체 삽입안의 시기능은 수술 1개월 후부터 안정화되며 동일 연령대의 정상안의 수준으로 개선되지만 만족스러운 중간거리 시력을 제공하지 못하며 눈부심과 빛 번짐의 시각적 불편감이 나타나는 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, the spatial variation mechanisms of large far-field earthquakes at engineering scales are first investigated with data from the 2008 Ms 8.0 Wenchuan earthquake. And a novel 'coherency cut-off frequency' is proposed to distinguish the spatial variations in ground motions in the low-frequency and high-frequency ranges. Then, a practical piecewise coherency model is developed to estimate and characterize the spatial variation in earthquake ground motions, including the effects of source-to-site distances, site conditions and neighboring topography on these variations. Four particular earthquake records from dense seismograph arrays are used to investigate values of the coherency cut-off frequency for different source-to-site distances. On the basis of this analysis, the model is established to simulate the spatial variations, whose parameters are suitable for both near- and far-field earthquake conditions. Simulations are conducted to validate the proposed model and method. The results show that compared to the existing models, the proposed model provides an effective method for simulating the spatial correlations of ground motions at local sites with known source-to-site distances.
