  • Single-orifice plate is wildly utilized in the piping system of the nuclear power plant to throttle and depressurize the fluid of the pipeline. The cavitation induced by the single-orifice plate may cause some serious vibration of the pipeline. This study aims to find the optimal designs of the single-orifice plates that may have weak cavitation possibilities. For this purpose, a new single-orifice plate with a convergent-flat-divergent hole was modeled, a multi-objective optimization method was proposed to optimize the shape of a single-orifice plate, while computational fluid dynamics method was adopted to obtain the fluid physical quantities. The reciprocal cavitation number and the developmental integral were treated as cavitation indexes (e.g., objectives for the optimization algorithm). Two non-dominant designs ultimately achieved illustrated obvious reduction in the cavitation indexes at a Reynolds number Re = 1 ×105 defined based on fluid velocity. Besides, the sensitivity analysis and temperature effects were also performed. The results indicated that the convergent angle of the single-orifice plate dominants the cavitation behavior globally. The optimal designs of single-orifice plates result in lower downstream jet areas and lower upstream pressure. For a constant Reynolds number, the higher temperature of liquid water, the easier it is to undergo cavitation. Whereas there is a diametric phenomenon for a constant fluid velocity. Moreover, the regression models were carried out to establish the mathematical relation between temperature and cavitation indexes.

  • We introduce a new zerotree scheme that effectively exploits the inter-scale self-similarities found in the octave decomposition by a wavelet transform. A zerotree is useful to efficiently code wavelet coefficients and its efficiency was proved by Shapiro's EZW. In the coding scheme, wavelet coefficients are symbolized and entropy-coded for more compression. The entropy per symbol is determined from the produced symbols and the final coded size is calculated by multiplying the entropy and the total number of symbols. In this paper, were analyze produced symbols from the EZW and discuss the entropy per symbol. Since the entropy depends on the produced symbols, we modify the procedure of symbolic streaming out for the purpose. First, we extend the relation between a parent and children used in the EZW to raise a probability that a significant parent has significant children. The proposed relation is flexibly extended according to the fact that a significant coefficient is highly addressed to have significant coefficients in its neighborhood. The extension way is reasonable because an image is decomposed by convolutions with a wavelet filter and thus neighboring coefficients are not independent with each other.

  • 본 논문에서는 칼라공간상의 거리와 이웃정보를 이용한 클러스터링을 통한 칼라영상 분할 방법을 제안한다. 칼라영상의 한 픽셀은 칼라정보(R.G.B)와 위치정보(x.y)를 가진다. 대개의 칼라공간에서의 클러스터링방법은 픽셀을 (R,G,B)공간으로 변환후 (R,G,B)공간상의 분포만을 이용하지만 여기서는(R,G,B)와 (x.y)모두를 사용하여 클러스터링함으로 영상의 세그먼트들을 찾는다. 클러스터링 방법으로서 인력을 모방하는 중력 클러스터링(gravitational clustering)을 사용하였다. 이 방법은 클러스터의 중심값과 클러스터 수를 미리 정해주지 않아도 자동적으로 결정할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 중력 클러스터링에서 찾은 클러스터 수를 가지고 다른 클러스터링 방법(K-means)에 입력으로 주어 결과를 비교해 본다. 본 논문에서는 이웃관계를 따라 클러스터링하는 것이 정확한 경계선을 찾는데 효과적임을 보여준다.

  • I show that the standard microlensing technique to measure the angular radius of a star using color/surface-brightness relations can be inverted, via late-time proper motion measurements, to calibrate these relations. The method is especially useful for very metal-rich stars because such stars are in short supply in the solar neighborhood where other methods are most effective, but very abundant in Galactic bulge microlensing fields. I provide a list of eight spectroscopically identified high-metallicity bulge stars with the requisite finite-source effects, seven of which will be suitable calibrators when the Giant Magellan Telescope comes on line. Many more such sources can be extracted from current and future microlensing surveys.

  • Urban redevelopment make a short term effects without consideration about resident‘s lives. so, there are many problems and planners solve the problems to improve urban redevelopment based on resident leaded direction. The purpose of this research is to find inherent district which is character by residents. Most of them could be explained in relation to life, religious leadership, traditional cultural heritage and democratic movement. Group interviews at a field site were carried as the main methodology by people who have an intimate knowledge of the place facts. This research has implication on a cognitive and emotional community map of residents compared to the just physical and geographical map. The places and place recognition activities and movement can be a basic foundation for residents participation in improving their housing neighborhood environment.

  • After the historic opening of the first section of KTX(Korea Train eXpress), it has been made changes three times in a plan to pass through cities of Daejeon, Daegu in the construction of the high speed train's second section(underground${\to}$ on ground${\to}$ under ground${\to}$ on ground). Thereafter, it has been repeatedly argued that the plan to pass through underground caused many problems such as prevention of an accident in tunnel, the difficulty of maintainence, the disadvantage of passengers' moving line. Thus construction on ground plan is coming up again with relation to the interest among local people. There have been lots of national budget loss, construction period delay in this project and people hardly trust policies about national project and nor do engineers. It will be presented that the railway line which is accorded with the characteristics of region, an agreement with local communities about national project, the reasonable procedure to determine how to pass through cities, resolve the conflict among neighborhood, and the role of engineers.

  • From the uvby, $H_{\beta}$ photometry of intermediate population II F-stars in the catalogue of Olsen (1983), we derived age-metallicity relations for these stars, using Hejlesen's (1980) isochrone. The derived age-metallicity relations well coincide with the theoretical predictions by the unclosed two-zone model of Lee and Ann (1981). There are few extremely metal poor F-stars in the vicinity of the Sun, and it is very likely that the initial rapid metal enrichment in the galactic disk might have been processed through the fast collapse of the disk at the very early epoch.

  • Edge includes variety of information about image's location and shape etc. So a lot of researches for detecting those edges have been continuing even now and at the early stage of the research, edge detection operators searched neighborhood pixels and used relation among pixels. However, these methods do not have excellent performance in the image which exists noise and can not detect edges selectively. For this reason, in this paper we detected image's line-edge element from degraded image by AWGN (additive white gaussian noise) with wavelet function which is independent of line's width.

  • This study examined the remodeling characteristics of traditional urban housing for lease focusing on Hanok in the traditional urban housing neighborhood of Bukchon. Furthermore, the space syntax was used as the main analytic approach to objectively revealing the change in social properties of each spatial element because each room forms its status in the structural relation with many rooms and accommodates the special change in traditional housing and modern life. These findings revealed the following; spatial division between the landlord and tenant results in a hierarchical change in the yard and main hall and strengthens the privacy of the space of the landlord.

  • Foreign tourists visiting our country are increasing. Accordingly, diverse crime and inconvenient points of tourism are occurring. It may have the negative effect on the development of tourist industry of our country if this is neglected. The Tourist Police Force has been introduced in 2013 to prevent this. The current status for the Tourist Police Force being implemented in Seoul, Incheon and Busan and the current status in relation to the tourism of our country are checked and following 4 kinds of points at issue have been deducted in this research. First, the cooperation deficit with the regional community and related institutions, second, the incompletion for the selection criteria of Tourist Police Force, third, the insufficient manpower, finally, it is the uniformity of maneuver. The application for the community policing has been proposed as the plan to improve this. For further details, the improvement plan has been proposed by applying the Problem-Oriented Policing, Neighborhood-Oriented Policing and Strategic-Oriented Policing being the component of community policing.
