In this paper, we investigate the statistical correlation of the time series for temperature measured at the heat box in the automobile drying process. We show, in terms of the sample variance, that a significant non-linear correlation exists in the time series that consist of absolute temperature changes. To investigate further the non-linear correlation, we utilize the volatility, an important concept in the financial market, and induce volatility time series from absolute temperature changes. We analyze the time series of volatilities in terms of the de-trended fluctuation analysis (DFA), a method especially suitable for testing the long-range correlation of non-stationary data, from the correlation perspective. We uncover that the volatility exhibits a long-range correlation regardless of the window size. We also analyze the cross correlation between two (inlet and outlet) volatility time series to characterize any correlation between the two, and disclose the dependence of the correlation strength on the time lag. These results can contribute as important factors to the modeling of forecasting and management of the heat box's temperature.

CCOTDR (complementary correlation optical time domain reflectometer)의 dynamic range는 사용된 코드의 길이와 평균 횟수에 따라 증가한다. OTDR의 전체 측정 시간이 제한된 경우에는 코드 길이를 늘이게 되면 평균 횟수를 줄여야 한다. 이와 같은 관계 때문에 코드 길이가 일정 이상 증가하면 dynamic range의 증가 정도가 어느 이상 커지지 않는다. 본 논문에서는 전체 측정 시간이 제한된 경우에 단일 펄스를 사용한 측정 방법에서 1회 측정에 걸리는 시간과 코드를 사용한 측정 방법에서 1회 측정에 걸리는 시간을 비교하였다. 이를 바탕으로 코드를 길게 해서 dynamic range를 개선시기는 데에 한계가 있음을 보였고, 길이가 짧으면서 최대 dynamic range를 달성할 수 있는 코드 길이를 제시하였다.

Leak noise is a good source to identify the exact location of a leak point of underground water pipelines. Water leak generates broadband noise from a leak location and can be propagated to both directions of water pipes. This sound propagation due to leak in water pipelines is not a non-dispersive wave any more because of the surrounding pipes and soil. However, the necessity of long-range detection of this leak location makes to identify low-frequency acoustic waves rather than high frequency ones. Acoustic wave propagation coupled with surrounding boundaries including cast iron pipes is theoretically analyzed and the wave velocity was confirmed with experiment. The leak locations were identified both by the acoustic emission (AE) method and the cross-correlation method. In a short-range distance, both the AE method and cross-correlation method are effective to detect leak position. However, the detection for a long-range distance required a lower frequency range accelerometers only because higher frequency waves were attenuated very quickly with the increase of propagation paths. Two algorithms for the cross-correlation function were suggested, and a long-range detection has been achieved at real underground water pipelines longer than 300m.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to establish the reliability and validity of the Wheelchair User's Shoulder Pain Index (WUSPI), which was translated into Korean for long-term wheelchair users. This index measured 15 functional activities, including transfer, self-care, wheelchair mobility and general activities. METHODS: To assess test-retest reliability, 23 long-term wheelchair users completed this self-administered index twice within the same day. Reliability was determined by the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), and Cronbach's alpha was used to measure internal consistency. To examine concurrent validity, 21 long-term wheelchair users completed the questionnaire, and we examined the correlation between the index score and the shoulder range of motion measurements. RESULT: The results showed that the intraclass correlation for test-retest reliability of the total index score ranging from .88 to .99 was good to excellent. Additionally, Cronbach's alpha was .96. The internal consistency indicated excellent. Concurrent validity showed negative correlations of total index score to range of motion measurements of shoulder flexion (rho=-.58), extension (rho=-.09), abduction (rho=-.59), external rotation (rho=-.07) and internal rotation (rho=-.3), suggesting a relationship of total index score to loss of shoulder range of motion. CONCLUSION: The Korean WUSPI shows not only high reliability and internal consistency, but also concurrent validity with loss of shoulder flexion and abduction.

심해 장거리 통신에서는 전달 손실이 적은 낮은 반송 주파수가 효율적이지만, 좁은 대역폭을 가지는 제약이 따른다. 대역폭의 감소는 전송률의 감소를 의미하며, 제한된 대역폭을 가진 환경에서 전송률을 증가시키기 위해서는 고차 변조 기법으로 설계될 필요가 있다. 본 논문은 고차 변조 기법으로 설계된 장거리 수중음향통신 데이터 분석 결과를 제시한다. 2020년 10월 동해에서 예인 음원을 이용한 장거리 해상실험 (23 km ~)이 수행되었고, 수직 선 배열을 통해 데이터를 획득하였다. 본 연구팀은 위상 변조 방식이 적용된 Phase Shift Keying (PSK) 계열 신호와 위상 및 진폭 변조 방식이 적용된 Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) 계열의 신호를 송신하였으며, 구체적으로 각 계열별 두 종류의 신호를 설계하였다; 1) PSK : quadrature PSK and 8PSK, 2) QAM : 8QAM and 16QAM. 데이터 분석을 위해 수신 신호와 채널 임펄스 응답 사이의 상관성을 활용하여 심볼 간 간섭을 완화시키는 시역전 처리가 적용되었다. 23 km 거리 데이터에 대해 모든 변조 방식이 성공적으로 복조됨으로써 장거리 환경에서 고차 변조 기법의 활용 가능성을 실험적으로 확인하였다.

Purpose: This study aimed to provide basic data for the development of an education program on diabetic foot prevention care for care helpers in long term care facilities. Additionally, it sought to determine care helpers' knowledge and practice regarding diabetic foot prevention care, and to identify the correlation between such knowledge and practice. Methods: This cross-sectional study employed a structured questionnaire. Participants consisted of 90 care helpers who were working in three long term care facilities in Jeju city. Data collection was conducted from September to November 2016. Results: The mean knowledge and practice scores were 8.77±1.28 (range 0~10) and 28.17±2.44 (range 10~30), respectively. Practice regarding diabetic foot prevention care was significantly different by care helpers' gender (t=-2.28, p=.024), period of career in the long term care facility (F=3.29, p=.025), and received education on diabetic foot prevention care (t=3.08, p=.005). A positive correlation was observed between knowledge and practice (r=.35, p<.001). Conclusion: To improve the practice of diabetic foot prevention care, specialized education programs that consider gender and period of career in the long term care facility as well as the improvement of the level of knowledge of care helpers on diabetic foot prevention care are needed.

Purpose: Determining the spatial structure of data is important in understanding within-field variability for site-specific crop management. An understanding of the spatial structures present in the data may help illuminate interrelationships that are important in subsequent explanatory analyses, especially when site variables are correlated or are a combined response to multiple causative factors. Methods: In this study, correlation, principal component analysis, and single and nested variogram models were applied to soil electrical conductivity and chemical property data of two fields in central Missouri, USA. Results: Some variables that were highly correlated, or were strongly expressed in the same principal component, exhibited similar spatial ranges when fitted with a single variogram model. However, single variogram results were dependent on the active lag distance used, with short distances (30 m) required to fit short-range variability. Longer active lag distances only revealed long-range spatial components. Nested models generally yielded a better fit than single models for sensor-based conductivity data, where multiple scales of spatial structure were apparent. Gaussian-spherical nested models fit well to the data at both short (30 m) and long (300 m) active lag distances, generally capturing both short-range and long-range spatial components. As soil conductivity relates strongly to profile texture, we hypothesize that the short-range components may relate to the scale of erosion processes, while the long-range components are indicative of the scale of landscape morphology. Conclusion: In this study, we investigated the effect of changing active lag distance on the calculation of the range parameter. Future work investigating scale effects on other variogram parameters, including nugget and sill variances, may lead to better model selection and interpretation. Once this is achieved, separation of nested spatial components by factorial kriging may help to better define the correlations existing between spatial datasets.
