  • The Matched Field Processing (MFP) is an estimation method for a source range and depth based on the prediction of sound propagation. However, as the frequency increases, the prediction inaccuracy of sound propagation increases, making it difficult to estimate the source position. Recently proposed, the Frequency-Difference Matched Field Processing (FD-MFP) is known to be robust even if there is a mismatch by applying a frequency-difference autoproduct extracted from the auto-correlation of a high frequency signal. In this paper, in order to evaluate the performance of the FD-MFP using a horizontal line array, simulations were conducted in the environment of the East Sea of Korea. In the area of Bottom Bounce (BB) and Convergence Zone (CZ) where detection of a sound source is possible at a long range, and the results of localization were analyzed. According to the the FD-MFP simulations of horizontal line array, the accuracy of localization is similar or degraded compared to the conventional MFP due to diffracted field and mismatch of sound speed. There was no clear result from the simulations conforming that the FD-MFP was more robust to mismatch than the conventional MFP.

  • Matched Field Processing (MFP) is a successive process of correcting mismatches between true and assumed parameters by matching the measured acoustic field data with numerically simulated data which we call replica. The MFP is widely used both in geo-acoustic parameter inversions and in source localizations. Whether a certain parameter can be inverted effectively or whether a source can be localized correctly depends on the amount of the influence that a parameter has on the acoustic field during the matching process. Sensitive parameters can be better estimated than the less sensitive ones in MFP. On the contrary, the sensitive parameters affect adversely on the source localization results when they have uncertainties. In this paper, a sensitivity index is defined based upon the field variation resulting from the perturbed parameters. Numerical test results show that the index behaves in accordance with the results of source localization under a mismatched environment and also with the inversion solutions.

  • Variation in demand, natural resource availability, and technological advancement within a country are the main reasons for necessitating export and import activities between nations. Accordingly, this paper aims to analyze the effect of economic openness on Multifactor Productivity (MFP) in selected Asian countries (Vietnam, Thailand, The Philippines, Indonesia, Cambodia, China, Japan, Malaysia, South Korea, and Singapore) based on data for the period 1990-2018. The analysis conducted in the study employed the panel ARDL approach based on the estimation by Pooled Mean Group (PMG), Mean Group (MG), and Dynamic Fixed Effect (DFE). The Hausman test conducted indicates that the PMG estimation is better than that of MG and DFE since it has a higher variability value than the significance value. The results revealed that economic openness is able to elicit significant and positive effects on short-term and long-term MFP growth. In addition, the study established that other variable, such as the number of schooling years, are also able to produce a positive and significant effect on MFP growth in the long term. Since economic openness can impact MFP growth, every country should thus increase its export activities through more capital and worker inputs that will stimulate greater production.

  • Cause of noise/vibration for the sheet feeding apparatus of digital MFP is investigated by analyzing the measured sound pressure and the strategy for reducing the noise level is suggested. Factors related to the noise/vibration are found by loading test and the measurement of the noise by assembling the components. By checking the center distance between gears and the boss height, precision of assembly is identified as a main factor of noise. From the result of analysis, it can be concluded that the noise level of sheet feeding apparatus can be reduced by maintaining the distance between gears and the precision of assembly adequately.

  • In this paper, a multiobjective nondifferentiable fractional programming problem (MFP) is considered where the objective function contains a term involving the support function of a compact convex set. A vector valued (generalized) ${\alpha}$-univex function is defined to extend the concept of a real valued (generalized) ${\alpha}$-univex function. Using these functions, sufficient optimality criteria are obtained for a feasible solution of (MFP) to be an efficient or weakly efficient solution of (MFP). Duality results are obtained for a Mond-Weir type dual under (generalized) ${\alpha}$-univexity assumptions.

  • In this paper, we investigate the vibration source of sheet feeding apparatus installed in scanner cover of the digital MFP through frequency analysis. Gearmesh frequency and motor generated frequency were calculated to analyse autospectrum. During driving state, we measure the vibration level. It was found from the signal analysis that gearmesh frequency and motor generated frequency are identified as vibration source.

  • We examined the effect of the acidic liquid from carbonized rice hull(ALCRH) treatments to molded fiber packages(MFP) on weight, Haugh unit, pH and microbial activity of egg to extend the shelf life in egg packaging. Higher concentration and surface spray treatment of the acidic liquid extended the shelf life of egg. ALCRH treatment to MFP improved the performance of the packaging for egg in terms of decreased weight loss and retarded microorganism growth of eggs during storage.

  • Myofascial pain (MFP) is one of the most common causes of persistent orofacial pain. Patients with chronic myofascial orofacial pain may present with diffuse heterotopic pain, complicating the correct diagnosis. Treatment of chronic MFP should focus on the elimination of aetiologic factors. This article describes two cases of chronic MFP of the masticatory muscles, whose symptoms were exacerbated after masseteric nerve neurectomy. The patients had suffered from irrelevant treatment which did not resolve the symptom. Their symptom was managed by conventional treatment protocol. These cases emphasize the importance of correct diagnosis and evidence-based approach.

  • Background: The purpose of this study was to compare the use of midazolam only with midazolam with fentanyl or propofol in IV sedation. Methods: 24 cases were divided to midazolam group (M group), midazolam + fentanyl group (MF group), midazolam + propofol group (MP group) and midazolam + fentanyl + propofol group (MFP group). In M group, 2 ml midazolam was injected at first, than at 2 minutes interval 1-2 ml injected continuously depending on the level of sedation. In MP, MFP groups, propofol was injected at the speed of 15-20 ml/hr by infusion pump. In this study, the sedation level was evaluated by using OAA/S scale. In each groups, the recovery time was measured until OAA/S scale score level was 5, and pre and postoperative blood pressure change was measured. Each group's data was statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA. If significant statistical difference were observed, Dunnet test was performed, and control group was M group. Results: Pre and postoperative blood pressure change were not represent significant statistical difference in 4 groups (P value = 0.679 [systolic], P value = 0.206 [diastolic]). But recovery time were represent significant statistical difference (M group: 35.6, MF group: 32.5, MP group: 17.9, MFP group: 19.6 [P value = 0.002]). The result of Dunnet test on recovery time showed significant statistical difference on MF, MFP group when M group was control group. In MFP group, sedation was increased by using supplemental fentanyl, and postoperative pain control was dominant. Conclusion: To achieve the effect of anxiolysis, analgesia, amnesia effectively, and short recovery time, MFP group is mostly recommended.
