  • The air filter in engine intake system filters the dirt in the breathing air but also it attenuates the noise although the phenomenon has been regarded negligible. For the analysis of the acoustical performance of air filter, an acoustical model is suggested in this paper. The air filter consists of a porous filter element, which catches the particulate dirt, and a plastic filter box, which supports the filter element. Fibrous structure of the filter element is modeled as a micro-perforated panel using the flow resistivity and porosity. The pleated geometry of the filter element is modeled as two coupled ducts and a mathematical model is developed for the analysis of sound propagation. The filter box Is modeled as a rigid rectangular box. By combining two models, a 4-pole transfer matrix for the air filter is derived. The transmission loss calculated using the transfer matrix of the suggested model is compared with the measured data. Reasonably good agreement is observed. The result can be improved by considering the visco-thermal effect in modeling, in particular at a frequency range near the troughs of TL curve.

  • The stability of slurry trench system is closely associated with the characteristics of the filter cake (assumed impervious membrane) transferring the hydrostatic force of slurry to the trench walls. The effectiveness of this assumption in a wide range of trench systems has been examined with the aid of a Finite Element program. Build up of excess porewater pressure in the soil mass behind the filter cake is a function of the slurry density, the properties of filter cake, the ground conditions, time, the geometry of trench and the original ground water level. These factors were all investigated by the Finite Element Method. The most significant factors were found to be the ground conditions and the properties of filter cake.

  • In this paper we present the linear combination of a fuzzy opening and closing filter with locally adaptive structuring elements that can preserve the geometrical features of an image. Based on the adaptation algorithm of linear combination of the fuzzy opening and closing filter, the optimal structuring element for image representation is obtained. The optimal structuring element is an indicator of the shape and direction of an object's image, which is useful in filtering, multi resolution, segmentation, and recognition of an image.

  • The air filter in engine intake system has a function of filtrating the dirt in the scavenging air as well as attenuating the noise. The noise attenuation within the air cleaner filter, however, has been regarded as negligible by the field engineers. In this paper, for the analysis of the acoustical performance of air filter, an acoustical model was suggested and the characteristics of air filter system were investigated. Fibrous structure of the filter element was modeled as a micro-perforated panel using the flow resistivity and porosity. The pleated geometry of the filter element was modeled as two coupled ducts that have permeable walls, in which each duct area was assumed being constant. Using such simplified geometry, a mathematical model was developed for the sound propagation within a narrow duct system. Visco-thermal effect was considered in modeling the sound propagation through such tubes; the filter box was modeled as a rigid rectangular box. By combining two models, a four-pole transfer matrix was derived. For the validation purpose, transmission loss was measured for a plastic rectangular box containing an air filter. A noticeable effect of the air filter element was observed by including the filter into the box. Comparing the predicted and measured data, we found that the predicted TL agrees well with experimental results, in particular, in magnitude and frequency at TL troughs.

  • Two dimensional finite element method with quadrilateral basis functions was applied to the spherical high order filter on the spherical surface limited area domain. The basis function consists of four shape functions which are defined on separate four grid boxes sharing the same gridpoint. With the basis functions, the first order derivative was expressed as an algebraic equation associated with nine point stencil. As the theory depicts, the convergence rate of the error for the spherical Laplacian operator was found to be fourth order, while it was the second order for the spherical Laplacian operator. The accuracy of the new high order filter was shown to be almost the same as those of Fourier finite element high order filter. The two-dimension finite element high order filter was incorporated in the weather research and forecasting (WRF) model as a hyper viscosity. The effect of the high order filter was compared with the built-in viscosity scheme of the WRF model. It was revealed that the high order filter performed better than the built in viscosity scheme did in providing a sharper cutoff of small scale disturbances without affecting the large scale field. Simulation of the tropical cyclone track and intensity with the high order filter showed a forecast performance comparable to the built in viscosity scheme. However, the predicted amount and spatial distribution of the rainfall for the simulation with the high order filter was closer to the observed values than the case of built in viscosity scheme.

  • In this paper, compact lumped-element low-pass filter structure with two transmission zeros at second and third harmonics is presented. The use of lumped-elements and transmission zeros can provide the advantages of compact size, sharp cutoff and wide stop-band frequency response. The proposed low-pass filter is a modified Chebyshev low-pass filter type and is implemented by the use of low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) technology. This filter has been verified by both simulation and experiment. The simulated and experimental results agree very well.

  • The notions of closed elements and dense elements are introduced in BE-algebras. Characterization theorems of closed elements and closed filters are obtained. The notion of dense elements is introduced in BE-algebras. Dense BE-algebras are characterized with the help of maximal filters and congruences. The concept of D-filters is introduced in BE-algebras. A set of equivalent conditions is derived for every D-filter to become a closed filter.

  • The magnetic fibrous polymeric oil filter elements for industrial lub-systems were obtained by pneumoextrusion processing prepared from thermoplastic pqlymer (polyamide) containing a magnetic particulate filler (Ba ferrite), and treated subsequently in a magnetic fields. Using the standard laboratory oil filtration test rig, metallic particle quantifier and image analyser system, the dependence of filtration charateristics of the magnetic filter media on the parameters of porosity and magnetic properties was investigated. The pressure drops and efficiencies of lubricating filter elements were measured on the packing density and magnetised filler content of filter element. Also, the industrial lub-systems such as lubricant filters for gear test rig and electric discharge processing machine were used for testing the flitrational characteristics of tl, c magnetised filter elements. The magnetic fibrous polymeric filter material was shown to possess a highly filtration efficiency in filtering the fine ferrous particles with increasing the magnetic force of filter element. Therefore, it is expected that the magnetic fibrous polymeric filter material should be used for effective oil filrers on the industrial lub-systems.

  • In this paper, it proposes the technique to restore from a binary image in the color image. The color image is composed of three element images of red, green and blue. Therefore, the color image is first divided into a red, green, and blue element, and the Inverse Halftoning[2]$\sim$[4] is processed to each element images. Finally, each element images is collectively displayed. In that case, the Kalman filter was applied to the Inverse Halftoning for the restoration accuracy improvement of the image. As a result, it was possible to restore it in the color image as well as the time of a monochrome image. Moreover, the result that the restoration accuracy had improved even when which combining with the technique by using the Kalman filter for the Inverse Halftoning so far came out.
