High speed railroad noise is one of the main causes of environmental impact. An estimate of the relevant noise levels is usually required in order to evaluate the noise barrier and the anti-noise trailer. This paper introduce the test procedure and the estimate for HST noise. The aim of this is to measure, by means of a test, the level of acoustic pressure present during the passing of a KTX(Korea Train Express), in order to satisfy the contractual requirements and the noise criteria. A number of measurements are carried out in order to estimate noise impact by HST along test track.

There are many methods to describe the importance of a node, centrality, in a graph. In this paper, we focus on the eigenvector centrality. In this paper, an analytical method to estimate the difference of centrality with an additional edge in a graph is proposed. In order to validate the analytical method to estimate the centrality, two problems, to decide an additional edge that maximizes the difference of all centralities of all nodes in the graph and to decide an additional edge that maximizes the centrality of a specific node, are solved using three kinds of random graphs and the results of the estimated edge and observed edge are compared. Though the estimated centrality difference is slightly different from the observed real centrality in some cases, it is shown that the proposed method is effective to estimate the centrality difference with a short running time.

Air void systems in hardened concrete has an important influence on concrete durability such as freeze-thaw resistance, water permeability, surface scaling resistance. Linear traverse method and point count method described at ASTM is the routine analysis of the air void system that have been widely used to estimate the spacing factor in hardened concrete. Recently, many concretes often have a spacing factor higher than the generally accepted $200-250{\mu}m$ limit for the usual range of air contents. This study is proposed to estimate the matrix spacing factor by calculation of simplicity. The matrix spacing factor needs two parameters that are air content and numbers of air voids in the hardened concrete. Those are obtained from the standard air-void system analysis of the ASTM C 457. The equation is valid for all values of paste-to-air ratio because the estimation of paste content is unnecessary at the using ASTM C 457. The matrix spacing factor yields a similar estimate of the standard spacing factor.

An adaptive observer which is applicable to discrete linear time invariant systems of ARMA type in the presence of noise is proposed. It first estimates the system parameters of the MA type by applying only the system input to the observer. Then it estimates the output which corresponds to the output of the system without any noise. This is a special case of Suzuki's adaptive observer. This estimated output is applied to Suzuki's adaptive observer to estimate the system parameters of ARMA type and the states. The proposed method can make the estimate errors of the system parameters sufficiently small even in the presence of noise in the system. It can also make the estimate errors of the states of the system sufficiently small when there is no process noise. These properties of the proposed adaptive observer is certified by computer simulation.

This paper describes error estimate mothod for adaptive finite element analysis of two dimensional electrostatic and magnetostatic field problems. To estimate the local errors, divergence theorem is used for electrostatic field and Ampere's circuital law for magnetostatic field. To confirm the effectiveness of the proposed error estimators, adaptive finite element computations are performed using the proposed error estimators. The rates of convergence of global errors are comparable with those of existing adaptive finite element schemes which make use of field continuity conditions between element boundaries. This algorithm of error estimate can be easily implemented because of its simplicity. Especially, when the value of charge in electrostatic field and the value of current in magnetostatic field are to be figured out, this method is considerded to be preferable to other approaches.

In this paper, the observer based nonlinear state feedback controller has been developed to control the pressures of the oxygen and the hydrogen in the PEM(Proton Exchange Membrane) fuel cell system. Nonlinear model of the PEM fuel cell system was introduced to study the design problems of the state observer and model based controller. A cascade observer using the filtering technique was used to estimate the pressure derivatives of the cathode and the anode in the system. In order to estimate the pressures of the cathode and the anode, the sliding mode observer was designed by using these pressure derivatives. To estimate the oxygen pressure and the hydrogen pressure in the system, the nonlinear state observer was designed by using the cathode pressure estimates and the anode it. These results will be very useful to design the state feedback controller. The validity of the proposed observers and the controller has been investigated by using the Lyapunov's stability analysis strategy.

A nonlinear adaptive speed observer is designed for the sensorless control of induction motors. In order to design the speed observer, the measurements of the stator currents and the estimates of the rotor fluxes are used. The sliding mode cascade observer is designed to estimate the time derivatives of the stator currents. The open-loop observer is designed to estimate the rotor fluxes and its time derivatives using the stator current derivatives. The adaptive observer is also designed to estimate the rotor resistance. Sequentially, the rotor speed is calculated using these estimated values. It is shown that the estimation errors of the corresponding states and the parameters converge to the specified residual set. It is also shown that the speed controller using these estimates is performed well. The simulation examples are represented to investigate the validity of the proposed observers for the sensorless control of induction motors.

When the noise is mainly caused by a detector and is statistically independent of the incident radiation, the multiplexing inherent in the Hadamard transform (HT) spectrometer can provide an improved spectrum-estimate. A spectrum-estimate can be further improved when any nonidealities in the system are compensated. In this research, three spectrum-estimation methods for an HT spectrometer having a nonideal mask are discussed in terms of computational efficiency, statistical bias, the sources of error, and the mean-square error associated with a given estimate. In addition, the results obtained from computer simulations are used to verify the theoretical foundation of each method.

The purpose of this thesis is to develop the schemes of supporting estimate for marine engines’ factories which are in a general make-to-order style. The marine engines’ factories currently use the method which depends on the past data and experiences handled by the responsible person, which causes inefficiency and inaccuracy in dealing with a huge amount of data. We apply association rule to solving the problems mentioned above. Critical data for analysis is filtered among materials that have been using actual records of performance so far. Secondly, relation with each part of marine engines through filtered data so that the company can estimate cost promptly and precisely if customers with similar components as requested. By proposed method of study estimate support efficient and supported exactly.
