Most of member parts have experienced severe springback problems because of their open shape Now it becomes imperative to develop an effective method, which can resolve these problems. However, there remain several obstacles to get accurate estimation of shape error. In analysis, we have to analyze the total process including forming, trimming and flanging. Furthermore, it is another challenge to compare the computed result with the real shape. In this study we developed an analysis program for the springback analysis. We could achive a big enhancement in computation time in springback analysis by using latest equation solving technique and could get a more robust solution conversence by contination method. We have approached this problem in two steps. In the first step, we analyzed forming stage to solve tearing and wrinkling problems. In the second step, we have analyzed full process and have done springback analysis with the same boundary condition as field measuring conditions. We have investigated the accuracy of springback analysis in terms of gap and flush used for insfection of real autobody panels. We found good and effective agreement with the observed results.

This paper represents a novel framework for multi-scale image fusion. Multi-scale Kalman Smoothing (MKS) algorithm with quad-tree structure can provide a powerful multi-resolution image fusion scheme by employing Markov property. In general, such approach provides outstanding image fusion performance in terms of accuracy and efficiency, however, quad-tree based method is often limited to be applied in certain applications due to its stair-like covariance structure, resulting in unrealistic blocky artifacts at the fusion result where finest scale data are void or missed. To mitigate this structural artifact, in this paper, a new scheme of multi-scale fusion framework is proposed. By employing Super Resolution (SR) technique on MKS algorithm, fine resolved measurement is generated and blended through the tree structure such that missed detail information at data missing region in fine scale image is properly inferred and the blocky artifact can be successfully suppressed at fusion result. Simulation results show that the proposed method provides significantly improved fusion results in the senses of both Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) performance and visual improvement over conventional MKS algorithm.

Due to GPS signal's vulnerability of jamming attack, various enhancement techniques are needed. Among variety of techniques, we focused on GPS receiver's anti-jamming techniques. There are many anti-jamming methods at GPS receivers which include filtering methods in time domain, frequency domain and space domain. However, these methods are ineffective to signals, which include both jamming and noise. To solve the problem, this paper proposes a jamming separation scheme by using a BSS method in a jamming environment. As separated GPS signals include noise after the jamming separation method, it is difficult to receive accurate GPS signals. For this reason, this paper also proposes a wavelet de-noising method to effectively eliminate noise. Experimental results of this paper are based on a real field test data of an integrated GPS/QZSS/Wi-Fi positioning system. At the end, the simulation result demonstrates its superiority by showing improved positioning accuracy.

Simulation results of Asian Dust Aerosol Model (ADAM) for the period of April 7-9, 2006 were analyzed, comparing with observed PM10 data. ADAM simulated around ten times lower than on-site PM10 concentration in the source regions: Zhurihe, Tongliao, Yushe, Dalian and Huimin. As the result of this low concentration, transported amounts of Asian Dust were under-estimated as well. In order to quantify a forecasting accuracy, Bias and RMSE were calculated. Even though remarkably negative Biases and high RMSEs were observed, ADAM simulation had followed well up the time of dust outbreak and a transported path. However, the emission process to generate dust from source regions requires a great enhancement. The PM10 concentration at the surface reached up to $2,300{\mu}gm^{-3}$ at Baeknyoungdo and Seoul (Mt. Gwanak), up to $1,750{\mu}gm^{-3}$ at KGAWO about 18:00 LST in April 8, respectively; however, ADAM did not simulate the same result on its second peak. It is considered that traveling Asian dust might have been lagged over the Korean peninsula by the blocking of surface high pressure. Moreover, the current RDAPS's 30 km grid resolution (which ADAM adopts as the meteorological input data) might not adequately represent small-scale atmospheric motions below planetary boundary layer.

The aim of this study is to improve the accuracy of field placement and junction between adjacent fields and block shielding through the use of a computed tomography(CT) simulator and virtual simulation. The information was acquired by assessment of Alderson Rando phantom image using CT simulator (I.Q. Xtra - Picker), determination of each field by virtual fluoroscopy of voxel IQ workstation AcQsim and colored critical structures that were obtained by contouring in virtual simulation. And also using a coronal, sagittal and axial view can determine the field and adjacent field gap correctly without calculation during the procedure. With the treatment planning by using the Helax TMS 4.0, the dose in the junction among the adjacent fields and the spinal cord and cribriform plate of the critical structure was evaluated by the dose volume histogram. The pilot image of coronal and sagittal view took about 2minutes and 26minutes to get 100 images. Image translation to the virtual simulation workstation took about 6minutes. Contouring a critical structure such as cribriform plate, spinal cord using a virtual fluoroscopy were eligible to determine a correct field and shielding. The process took about 20 minutes. As the result of the Helax planning, the dose distribution in adjacent field junction was ideal, and the dose level shows almost 100 percentage in the dose volume histogram of the spinal cord and cribriform plate CT simulation can get a correct therapy area due to enhancement of critical structures such as spinal cord and cribriform plate. In addition, using a Spiral CT scanner can be saved a lot of time to plan a simulation therefore this function can reduce difficulties to keep the patient position without any movements to the patient, physician and radiotherapy technician.

As the prediction accuracy of conditional branch instruction is increased highly, the importance of prediction accuracy for unconditional branch instruction is also increased accordingly. Except the case of RAS(Return Address Stack) overflow, the prediction accuracy of function return address should be 100% theoretically. However, there exist some possibilities of miss-predictions for RAS return addresses, when miss-speculative execution paths are invalidated, in case of modern speculative microprocessor environments. In this paper, we propose the RAS rename technique to prevent RAS pollution, results in the reduction of RAS miss-prediction. We divide a RAS stack into a soft-stack and a hard-stack and we handle the instructions for speculative execution in the soft-stack. When some overwrites happen in the soft-stack, we move the soft-stack data into the hard-stack. In addition, we propose an enhanced version of RAS rename scheme. In simulation results, our solution provide 1/90 reduction of miss-prediction of function return address, results in up to 6.85% IPC improvement, compared to normal RAS method. Furthermore, it reduce miss-prediction ratio as 1/9, compared to previous technique.

Many researches have been focused on localization in WSNs. However, the solutions for localization in static WSN are hard to apply to the mobile WSN. The solutions for mobile WSN localization have the assumption that there are a significant number of anchor nodes in the networks. In the resource limited situation, these solutions are difficult in applying to the static and mobile mixed WSN. Without using the anchor nodes, a localization service cannot be provided in efficient, accurate and reliable way for mixed wireless sensor networks which have a combination of static nodes and mobile nodes. Also, accuracy is an important consideration for localization in the mixed wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we presented a method to satisfy the requests for the accuracy of the localization without anchor nodes in the wireless sensor networks. Hop coordinates measurements are used as an accurate method for anchor free localization. Compared to the other methods with the same data in the same category, this technique has better accuracy than other methods. Also, we applied a minimum spanning tree algorithm to satisfy the requests for the efficiency such as low communication and computational cost of the localization without anchor nodes in WSNs. The Java simulation results show the correction of the suggested approach in a qualitative way and help to understand the performance in different placements.

The objectives of this study propose a parameter estimation method that can consider both the total runoff and the runoff component by integrating the digital filter method and the long-term runoff models (SWAT, TANK), and evaluate the appropriateness of the applied methods. The study area is the Soyang River Dam basin, and parameter calibration and validation are performed by dividing it into a parameter estimation method considering the total runoff and a parameter estimation method considering the runoff component. In both methods, the fit between the observation and simulation runoff was excellent, and the model performance was found to be good with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.73~0.87, and NSE of 0.67~0.85. As a result of comparison with each method, it was confirmed that the simulation accuracy was improved when applying the method considering the runoff component in both the SWAT model and the TANK model. When comparing between the models, the SWAT model showed better statistics in both methods, but the effect of applying to the method was found to be insignificant. However, even though the TANK model did not specifically consider the physical characteristics of the methodology, the statistical value of NSE increased by 17% when integrating a method such as a digital filter. In other words, the applicability to the digital filter method was found to be better in the TANK model, and when a hydrograph separation method such as a digital filter is applied to a conceptual model such as this model, it is judged that more improved simulation results can be obtained than the physical model. Accordingly, it is judged that estimating the parameters by considering the runoff component will be more accurate than estimating the parameters by considering only the total runoff when simulating the hydrological model.

In this paper, we propose a novel method to improve FPS while maintaining the accuracy of YOLO v2 model in NVIDIA Jetson TX1. In general, in order to reduce the amount of computation, a conversion to an integer operation or reducing the depth of a network have been used. However, the accuracy of recognition can be deteriorated. So, we use methods to reduce computation and memory consumption through adjustment of the filter size and integrated computation of the network The first method is to replace the $3{\times}3$ filter with a $1{\times}1$ filter, which reduces the number of parameters to one-ninth. The second method is to reduce the amount of computation through CBR (Convolution-Add Bias-Relu) among the inference acceleration functions of TensorRT, and the last method is to reduce memory consumption by integrating repeated layers using TensorRT. For the simulation results, although the accuracy is decreased by 1% compared to the existing YOLO v2 model, the FPS has been improved from the existing 3.9 FPS to 11 FPS.

Engineered Cementitious Composite (ECC) is a special class of the new generation of high performance fiber reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCC) featuring high ductility with relatively low fiber content. In this research, the mechanical performance of ECC beams will be investigated with respect to the effect of slag and aggregate size and amount, by employing nonlinear finite element method. The validity of the models was verified with the experimental results of the ECC beams under monotonic loading. Based on the numerical analysis method, nonlinear parametric study was then conducted to evaluate the influence of the ECC aggregate content (AC), ECC compressive strength ($f_{ECC}$), maximum aggregate size ($D_{max}$) and slag amount (${\phi}$) parameters on the flexural stress, deflection, load and strain of ECC beams. The simulation results indicated that when increase the slag and aggregate size and content no definite trend in flexural strength is observed and the ductility of ECC is negatively influenced by the increase of slag and aggregate size and content. Also, the ECC beams revealed enhancement in terms of flexural stress, strain, and midspan deflection when compared with the reference beam (microsilica MSC), where, the average improvement percentage of the specimens were 61.55%, 725%, and 879%, respectively. These results are quite similar to that of the experimental results, which provides that the finite element model is in accordance with the desirable flexural behaviour of the ECC beams. Furthermore, the proposed models can be used to predict the flexural behaviour of ECC beams with great accuracy.
