  • In this paper we present geometrically exact Kirchhoff's initially curved planar beam model. The theoretical formulation of the proposed model is based upon Reissner's geometrically exact beam formulation presented in classical works as a starting point, but with imposed Kirchhoff's constraint in the rotated strain measure. Such constraint imposes that shear deformation becomes negligible, and as a result, curvature depends on the second derivative of displacements. The constitutive law is plasticity with linear hardening, defined separately for axial and bending response. We construct discrete approximation by using Hermite's polynomials, for both position vector and displacements, and present the finite element arrays and details of numerical implementation. Several numerical examples are presented in order to illustrate an excellent performance of the proposed beam model.

  • 본 논문에서는 실시간 메쉬 모델의 형태 분석 처리가 가능하도록 하기 위한 효율적 이산 곡률 근사 방법을 제안한다. 메쉬 이산 곡률을 계산하는 기존 방법들의 경우, 각 정점(vertex) 별로 인접면(face)에대한 인접 순서등 인접 정점과 인접면과의 관계에 대한 사전 분석이 요구된다. 또한, 인접 정점과의 관계 분석을 위하여 고유치 분석 등 높은 계산 비용을 요구한다. 이에 비해, 제안 방법은 각 정점별로 정렬되지 않은 인접 정점의 위치 정보만으로 이산 곡률을 계산함에 따라 계산 부담이 적은 반면, 기존에 Taubin의 방법을 적용한 결과에 비해 정확한 곡률 계산 결과를 보여 주었다. 곡률 계산의 정확성은 다양한 형태의 메쉬 모델들에 대한 기존 방법과의 비교 실험을 통하여 입증하였다.

  • This paper presents an on-line scheme for parameter estimation of continuous-time systems, based on the model adjustment technique and the genetic algorithm technique. To deal with the initialisation and unmeasurable signal problems in on-line parameter estimation of continuous-time systems, a discrete-time model is obtained for the linear differential equation model and approximations of unmeasurable states with the observable output and its time-delayed values are obtained for the nonlinear state space model. Noisy observations may affect these approximation processes and degrade the estimation performance. A digital prefilter is therefore incorporated to avoid direct approximations of system derivatives from possible noisy observations. The parameters of both the model and the designed filter are adjusted on-line by a genetic algorithm, A set of simulation works for linear and nonlinear systems is carried out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

  • This article presents a new approach for conformal flattening with optimal cone singularity. The algorithm here takes an optimal control for selecting optimal cones and uses the Ricci flow to force the flattening. This work is considered as a modification to the work of Soliman et al. [1] in the sense that they make use of the Yamabe equation for the flattening, which is an approximation of the Ricci flow. We present a numerical algorithm based on the optimal control with the mathematical background. Several numerical results validate that our method is optimal in total cone angle and usage of the Ricci flow ensures the conformal flattening while selecting optimal cones.

  • Due to growing demand on wireless data traffic, a large number of different types of base stations (BSs) have been installed. However, space-time dependent wireless data traffic densities can result in a significant number of idle BSs, which implies the waste of power resources. To deal with this problem, we propose an active state control algorithm based on semi-Markov decision process (SMDP) for a heterogeneous network. A MDP in discrete time domain is formulated from continuous domain with some approximation. Suboptimal on-line learning algorithm with a random policy is proposed to solve the problem. We explicitly include coverage constraint so that active cells can provide the same signal to noise ratio (SNR) coverage with a targeted outage rate. Simulation results verify that the proposed algorithm properly controls the active state depending on traffic densities without increasing the number of handovers excessively while providing average user perceived rate (UPR) in a more power efficient way than a conventional algorithm.

  • This study presents a Bayesian multiple change-point detection approach to segment and classify the observations that no longer come from an initial population after a certain time. Inferences are based on the multiple change-points in a sequence of random variables where the probability distribution changes. Bayesian multiple change-point estimation is classifies each observation into a segment. We use a truncated Poisson distribution for the number of change-points and conjugate prior for the exponential family distributions. The Bayesian method can lead the unsupervised classification of discrete, continuous variables and multivariate vectors based on latent class models; therefore, the solution for change-points corresponds to the stochastic partitions of observed data. We demonstrate segmentation with real data.

  • This paper discusses approximate modelling of discrete-time linear time-varying system(LTVS). The wavelet transform is considered as a tool for representing and approximating a LTVS. The joint time-frequency properties of wave analysis are appropriate for describing the LTVS. Simulatly results is included to illustrate the popential application of the technique.

  • The goal of the image restoration is to find a good approximation of the original image for the degraded image, the blurring matrix, and the statistics of the noise vector given. Fast truncated Lagrange (FTL) method has been proposed by G. Landi as a image restoration method for large-scale ill-conditioned BTTB linear systems([3]). We implemented FTL method for the image restoration problem with reflective boundary condition which gives better reconstructions of the unknown, the true image.

  • 금속 나노 입자의 표면편재 플라즈몬 공명 주파수에 영향을 미치는 금속의 유전율은 조사된 빛의 파장 값에 의존하는 함수로 표현된다. 본 연구에서는 유전율의 실수부와 허수부 값을 체계적으로 변화시킬 수 있는 가상의 금속 나노 막대를 대상으로, 이산 쌍극자 근사(Discrete dipole approximation)를 사용하여, 광학적 성질을 계산하였다. 계산 결과, 유전율 함수의 실수부가 선형적으로 감소하는 경우에는 금속의 크기가 커짐에 따라 최대 소광이 나타나는 피크가 긴 파장영역으로 이동했고, 반대로 실수부가 선형적으로 증가하는 경우에는 최대 소광이 나타나는 피크가 짧은 파장영역으로 이동함을 알 수 있었다. 허수부 값을 증가시켰을 경우에는, 실수부에 관계없이 그 값이 증가함에 따라 피크의 세기가 감쇠하는 경향을 보였다.

  • We can get a tridiagonal block Toeplitz linear system by the finite difference approximation of 2-D Poisson equation. To exploit the nice property of this linear equation, we transform the equation into a Lyapunov equation and apply DST (discrete sine transform) to get diagonal matrix based Lyapunov equation. DST can be performed using FFT, which enables high-speed computaion. All the computations are performed on an SIMD parallel computer, the MasPar MP-2 with 4,096 processing elements. In this paper, parallel algorithm, mapping method of the algorithm onto the MP-2, and timing results are presented.
