노드의 위치인식은 M2M 무선센서네트워크에서의 위치에 기반을 둔 여러 응용들을 위해 매우 중요한 문제이다. 센서 네트워크에서의 위치인식은 거리 정보가 사용되느냐 그렇지 않느냐에 따라 range-free와 range-based 기법으로 분류될 수 있는데, 센서노드 특성상 제한된 하드웨어로 동작해야 한다는 점에서 range-free 위치인식 기법이 range-based 기법에 비해 효율적인 방법이라 할 수 있다. DV-Hop은 range-free 위치인식 기법 중 대표적인 것으로서 홉 수와 거리 간 추정을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 홉 수와 거리 간 추정을 위해 홉 수보다 거리와의 상관도가 높은 홉 수 평균을 사용하여 DV-Hop 에 비해 정확도를 향상시킨 DV-ANHC 알고리즘을 제시한다.

The total energy and strength of Mg alloy doped with Al, Ca and Zn, were calculated using the density functional theory. The calculations was performed by two programs; the discrete variational $X{\alpha}\;(DV-X{\alpha})$ method, which is a sort of molecular orbital full potential method; Vienna Ab-initio Simulation Package (VASP), which is a sort of pseudo potential method. The fundamental mixed orbital structure in each energy level near the Fermi level was investigated with simple model using $DV-X{\alpha}$. The optimized crystal structures calculated by VASP were compared to the measured structure. The density of state and the energy levels of dopant elements was discussed in association with properties. When the lattice parameter obtained from this study was compared, it was slightly different from the theoretical value but it was similar to Mk, and we obtained the reliability of data. A parameter Mk obtained by the $DV-X{\alpha}$ method was proportional to electronegativity and inversely proportional to ionic radii. We can predict the mechanical properties because $\Delta{\overline{Mk}}$is proportional to hardness.

Ti and Ti alloys have been extensively used in the medical and dental fields because of their good corrosion resistance, high strength to density ratio and especially, their low elastic modulus compared to other metallic materials. Recent trends in biomaterials research have focused on development of metallic alloys with elastic modulus similar to natural bone, however, many candidate materials also contain toxic elements that would be biologically harmful. In this study, new Ti based alloys which do not contain the toxic metallic components were developed using a theoretical method (DV-$X{\alpha}$). In addition, alloys were developed with improved mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Ternary Ti-Ag-Zr alloys consisting of biocompatible alloying elements were produced to investigate the alloying effect on microstructure, corrosion resistance, mechanical properties and biocompatibility. The effects of various contents of Zr on the mechanical properties and biocompatibility were compared. The alloys exhibited higher strength and corrosion resistance than pure Ti, had antibacterial properties, and were not observed to be cytotoxic. Of the designed alloys' mechanical properties and biocompatibility, the Ti-3Ag-0.5Zr alloy had the best results.

Discrete-variational(DV)-$X{\alpha}$ method was applied to investigate the electronic structures of spinel- type manganese oxide which is well known to the high performance adsorbent or cathode material for lithium ion. The results of DOS(density of states) and Mulliken population analysis showed that Li was nearly fully ionized and interactions between Mn and O were strong covalent bond. The effective charge of Li and Mn was +0.77 and +1.44 respectively and the overlap population between Mn and O was 0.252 in $LiMn_2O_4$. These results from DV-X$\alpha$ method were well coincided with the experimental result by XPS analysis and supported the feasibility of theoretical interpretation for the $LiMn_2O_4$ compound.

DV(Discrete Variation)-X${\alpha}$ cluster calculation was employed to calculate the electronic states of ${\gamma}'- Fe_4N$ which was one of iron nitride phases synthesized from plasma ion nitriding to improve surface hardness and wear resistance. The result of calculated electron density of states for Fe was similar to the result of band calculation. The cluster used for calculation of electronic states of ${\gamma}'-Fe_4N$ was based on $Fe_{14}N$ cluster which comprises 15 atoms. Finally the electronic states of ${\gamma}'- Fe_4N$ such as net-charge, band order, energy level, electron wave-function, and contour map for electron density were derived by the calculation.

Beta-type alloys are the most versatile class of titanium alloys. They offer the highest strength to weight ratios and very attractive combinations of strength, toughness, and fatigue resistance inlarge cross sections [1]. The present study was made to obtain useful information for the design of ${\beta}$-type titanium alloys with high-strength properties by using the $DV-X{\alpha}$ method. Employing two calculated parameters, the bond order (Bo) and the d-orbital energy level (Md) of alloying elements in ${\beta}$-type titanium alloy was introduced and used for prediction of mechanical properties. Thus, high-strength titanium alloys were designed by calculating the Md and Bo values of the previous and present titanium alloys.

The information of localization is a fundamental requirement in wireless sensor network (WSN). The method of distance vector-hop (DV-Hop), a range-free localization algorithm, can locate the ordinary nodes by utilizing the connectivity and multi-hop transmission. However, the error of the estimated distance between the beacon nodes and ordinary nodes is too large. In order to enhance the positioning precision of DV-Hop, fast triangle flip bat algorithm, which is based on curve strategy and rank transformation (FTBA-TCR) is proposed. The rank is introduced to directly select individuals in the population of each generation, which arranges all individuals according to their merits and a threshold is set to get the better solution. To test the algorithm performance, the CEC2013 test suite is used to check out the algorithm's performance. Meanwhile, there are four other algorithms are compared with the proposed algorithm. The results show that our algorithm is greater than other algorithms. And this algorithm is used to enhance the performance of DV-Hop algorithm. The results show that the proposed algorithm receives the lower average localization error and the best performance by comparing with the other algorithms.

주변 상황을 인지하여 사용자가 이를 적절히 사용할 수 있도록 하는 무선 센서 네트워크에서 각 센서 노드의 정확한 위치 추정은 매우 중요하다. 멀티홉 기반 위치 추정기법은 다수의 저전력 노드로 구성된 센서네트워크에 적합한 방법 중의 하나로 고려되고 있다. 하지만 일부 지역에서 노드들이 위치하지 않는 홀이 형성되는 경우에는 위치추정 오차가 허용한계 이상으로 크게 증가할 수 있다. 네트워크는 이러한 홀을 감지하고 그 영향을 최소화함으로써 오차를 가급적 억제할 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 비거리기반 알고리즘의 하나인 DV(Distance Vector)-hop이 갖고 있는 홀에서의 큰 위치 추정오류를 해결할 수 있는 새로운 위치 추정기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 이웃노드와의 관계를 통해 홀을 탐지하는 방법, 전파반경을 가상으로 홉을 나누어 예상위치의 정확도를 높이는 방법, 그리고 노드가 예상위치를 추정할 때 신뢰도가 적은 기준노드(anchor)를 배제하는 방법으로 나눌 수 있다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 본 논문에서 제안된 방법이 흘 검출을 통해 정밀한 위치 추정이 기존의 DV-hop에 비해 향상된 성능을 나타냄을 보인다.

Background: Inferior alveolar nerve block (IANB) is the most common, painful, and anxiety-provoking procedure involving needle insertion for anesthetic solution deposition. DentalVibeⓇ (DV) delivers vibration at a sustained frequency as a counter-stimulation to the site of injection, thereby alleviating pain. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of DV and lignocaine hydrochloride 2% gel (Lox 2% jelly) in pain reduction during IANB in children. Methods: A split-mouth randomized clinical trial was designed with a sample of 60 children (age, 6 to 12 years) requiring bilateral IANB for various dental procedures; DV was used while administering IANB and Lox 2% jelly was used as the topical anesthetic before administering IANB at subsequent appointments. During both appointments, pain perception was measured using the sound, eye, motor (SEM) scale and Wong-Baker faces pain rating scale (WBFPRS); oxygen saturation (SpO2) and pulse rate were measured using a pulse oximeter before, during, and after the IANB procedure. The obtained values were tabulated and subjected to statistical analysis. Wilcoxon test was used for intergroup comparison, and Friedman test, for intragroup comparison of measured variables at different treatment phases. Results: The medians and interquartile ranges of the WBFPRS scores recorded during the IANB procedure for DV and Lox 2% jelly were 2 (2-4) and 2 (0-2), respectively (P < 0.05). The SEM scale scores, mean SpO2, and pulse rate did not show any significant differences during the IANB procedure between both treatments. Conclusion: Both DV and Lox 2% jelly were found to be effective in pain reduction during IANB in children.
