In this study, we developed a flat-plate type wet electrostatic precipitator that generates stable corona discharge compared to wire type discharge electrode. In order to compare the particle removal efficiency according to the shape of the discharge electrode such as the variation of the horizontal and vertical distance between spiked edges, and the variation of the height of discharge pin support were tested. As a result, when the horizontal distance between spiked edges was increased up to 36 mm, the vertical distance between spiked edges was increased up to 54 mm, and the height of the discharge pin support was increased up to 76 mm, the removal efficiency of PM10 was maintained at approximate 60.0%. Furthermore, the removal efficiency of particles over $5{\mu}m$ was about 80% or more. When the flow rate was 4 m/s, the gap between collection plates was 60 mm, and -14 kV was applied to the discharge electrode. The particle removal efficiency of the flat-plate type electrostatic precipitator was maintained when the horizontal and vertical distance between spiked edges, and the height of the discharge pin support was below a certain level. Those variables may be the important design factors for the shape of the discharge electrode. Therefore, when designing the electrostatic precipitator with multiple channels, the horizontal and vertical distance between spiked edges, and the height of discharge pin support must be selected in consideration of the weight of the discharge electrode and the processing cost.

FeN thin films were deposited by RF-reactive diode sputtering to investigate magnetic characteristics variation due to substrate tilt during the film deposition, and their magnetic properties were measured by VSM, SEM and AFM. When the substrate tilt pivot edges were parallel to the applied field, the magnetic anisotropy was increased When the substrate tilt pivot edges were perpendicular to the applied field, the easy magnetization axis became the hard magnetization axis, and the hard axis became the easy axis as the tilt angles were increased. The reason is believed to be due to the fact that the tilt induced shape magnetic anisotropy became larger than the field induced magnetic anisotropy by DC magnetic field as the crystal grains are enlongated along the substrate tilt pivot edges due to "oblique incidence anisotropy" commonly found in eveporated thin films.

This study deals with the problem of the recognition of the preceding vehicles by image processing. The purpose of this study is the development of the equipment to prevent a collision with preceding vehicles during driving the vehicle. In order to decrease the processing time and increase reliability, at first, the traffic lane is extracted. It is determined by detecting road edges and calculating their tangent. After the traffic lane is gotten, the position of the vehicle is searched inside the lane. The features used to detect the vehicles in the algorithm are shadow of the vehicle, vertical edges, horizontal edges, and symmetrical segment. The preceding vehicles are extracted successfully by this method.

In this paper, the result of application of vibration method to the orthotropic plates with free edges supported on elastic foundation and with a pair of opposite edges under axial forces is presented. Such plates represent the concrete highway slab and hybrid composite pavement of bridges. The reinforced concrete slab can be assumed as a special orthotropic plate, as a close approximation. The highway slab is supported on elastic foundation, with free boundaries. Sometimes, the pair of edges perpendicular to the traffic direction may be subject to the axial forces. The plate is subject to the concentrated load/loads, in the form of traffic loads, or the test equipments. Finite difference method is used to obtain the deflection influence surfaces needed for vibration analysis. The influence of the modulus of the foundation, the aspect ratio of the plate, and the magnitudes of the axial forces and the concentrated attached mass on the plate, under the natural frequency is thoroughly studied.

An independent set of nodes is a set of nodes no two of which are joined by an edge. An independent set is called maximal if no more nodes can be added to the set without destroying its independence. The greatest number of maximal independent set is the maximum possible number of maximal independent set of a graph. We consider the greatest number of maximal independent set in connected graphs with fixed numbers of edges and nodes. For arbitrary number of nodes with a certain class of number of edges, we present the connected graphs with the greatest number of maximal independent set. For a given class of number of edges, the structure of graphs with the greatest number of maximal independent set is that the two components are completely joined; one consists of disjoint triangles as many as possible and the other is the complete graph with remaining nodes.

The new approach was proposed which uses Shannon function based on variable length in order to detect the edges of image. The proposed casted the detection of edges in images on the space information of the images. In addition the algorithm which measures the possibility of edges was proposed. Lots of simulations showed that the approach in this paper was more good than the conventional methods in detecting meaningful discontinuities in gray level.

Recently, designing 3D objects using various modeling techniques become getting more important issues in related industrial fields. The subdivision scheme is a technique that generates a smooth sur-face through many times of refinement processes that split polygons of control mesh into several smaller polygons. In this paper, we propose a new subdivision algorithm that preserves sharp-edges of control mesh after several refinement processes in the Doo-Sabin subdivision scheme. Using the pro-posed algorithm, the Doo-Sabin subdivision scheme can be well applied to modeling 3D objects with sharp-edges.

Let G = (V, E) be a simple connected graph. The sets of vertices and edges of G are denoted by V = V (G) and E = E(G), respectively. In such a simple molecular graph, vertices represent atoms and edges represent bonds. The distance between the vertices $u$ and $v$ in V (G) of graph G is the number of edges in a shortest path connecting them, we denote by $d(u,v)$. In graph theory, we have many invariant polynomials for a graph G. In this paper, we focus on the Schultz polynomial, Modified Schultz polynomial, Hosoya polynomial and their topological indices of a molecular graph circumcoronene series of benzenoid $H_k$ and specially third member from this family. $H_3$ is a basic member from the circumcoronene series of benzenoid and its conclusions are base calculations for the Schultz polynomial and Hosoya polynomial of the circumcoronene series of benzenoid $H_k$ ($k{\geq}3$).

This paper introduces and illustrates the results of a new method fer offsetting triangular mesh by moving all vertices along the multiple normal vectors of a vertex. The multiple normal vectors of a vertex are set the same as the normal vectors of the faces surrounding the vertex, while the two vectors with the smallest difference are joined repeatedly until the difference is smaller than allowance. Offsetting with the multiple normal vectors of a vertex does not create a gap or overlap at the smooth edges, thereby making the mesh size uniform and the computation time short. In addition, this offsetting method is accurate at the sharp edges because the vertices are moved to the normal directions of faces and joined by the blend surface. The method is also useful for rapid prototyping and tool path generation if the triangular mesh is tessellated part of the solid models with curved surfaces and sharp edges. The suggested method and previous methods are implemented on a PC using C++ and illustrated using an OpenGL library.

Edges are a robust feature for object detection. In this paper, we present an edge-based background modeling method for the detection of moving objects. The edges in the image frames were mapped using robust Canny edge detector. Two edge maps were created and combined to calculate the ultimate moving-edge map. By selecting all the edge pixels of the current frame above the defined threshold of the ultimate moving edges, a temporary background-edge map was created. If the frequencies of the temporary background edge pixels for several frames were above the threshold, then those edge pixels were treated as background edge pixels. We conducted a performance comparison with previous works. The existing edge-based moving-object detection algorithms pose some difficulty due to the changes in background motion, object shape, illumination variation, and noises. The result of the performance evaluation shows that the proposed algorithm can detect moving objects efficiently in real-world scenarios.
