본 논문에서는 조명 변화에 강인한 상호 정보량 기반의 스테레오 정합 기법을 제안한다. 일반적으로 다양한 조명 조건에서 취득한 스테레오 영상은 좌우 영상 간에 컬러의 변화가 발생하기 때문에 정확한 스테레오 정합점을 찾는 것이 쉽지 않다. 이 경우, 컬러를 보정하는 작업을 우선 수행하는 것이 일반적이다. 그러나, 좌우 스테레오 영상에 대해서는 컬러 값을 동일하게 보정하는 작업도 시점 차이로 인한 좌우 영상의 변화로 인해서 좌우 영상에 대한 정합 정보가 요구되므로 쉽지 않다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 조명 조건에서 취득한 영상에 강인한 스테레오 정합 기법을 제안한다. 이를 위해서 선형적인 관계를 갖는 로그-색도 (log-chromaticity) 컬러 공간으로 변형을 수행하였고, 이 컬러 공간에서 상호 정보량에 기반한 새로운 스테레오 정합 비용 (cost)을 제안하였다. 제안하는 비용은 가중치가 적용된 상호 정보량과 SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) 묘사 벡터의 정보를 화소 (pixel)마다 적응적으로 결합한다. 또한, 보다 정확한 변위 지도 예측을 위해서 세그먼트 기반의 평면 제한 조건도 제안하는 비용에 포함되었다. 다양한 실험 데이터에 대해서 테스트한 결과, 제안하는 방법이 기존의 방법들에 비해서 보다 정확한 변위 지도 결과를 얻는 것을 확인하였다.

The Pasquill-Gifford stability category is a very important scheme of the Gaussian type dispersion model defined the complex turbulence state of the atmosphere by A grade(very unstable) to F grade(very stable). But there has been made a point out that this stability category might decrease the predictability of the model because it was each covers a broad range of stability conditions, and that they were very site specific. The APSM (Air Pollution Simulation Model) was composed of the turbulent parameters, i.e. friction velocity(${\mu}$$\_$*/), convective velocity scale($\omega$$\_$*/) and Monin-Obukhov length scale(Ｌ) for the purpose of the performance increasing on the case of the unstable atmospheric conditions. And the PDF (Probability Density Function)model was used to express the vertical dispersion characteristics and the profile method was used to calculate the turbulent characteristics. And the performance assessment was validated between APSM and EPA regulatory models(TEM, ISCST), tracer experiment results. There were very good performance results simulated by APSM than that of TEM, ISCST in the short distance (<1415 m) from the source, but increase the simulation error(%) to stand off the source in others. And there were differences in comparison with the lateral dispersion coefficient($\sigma$$\_$y/) which was represent the horizontal dispersion characteristics of a air pollutant in the atmosphere. So the different calculation method of $\sigma$$\_$y/ which was extrapolated from a different tracer experiment data might decrease the simulation performance capability. In conclusion, the air pollution simulation model showed a good capability of predict the air pollution which was composed of the turbulent parameters compared with the results of TEM and ISCST for the unstable atmospheric conditions.

Traffic load and volume is one of the most important physical quantities for bridge safety evaluation and maintenance strategies formulation. This paper aims to conduct the statistical analysis of traffic volume information and the multimodal modeling of gross vehicle weight (GVW) based on the monitoring data obtained from the weigh-in-motion (WIM) system instrumented on the arch Jiubao Bridge located in Hangzhou, China. A genetic algorithm (GA)-based mixture parameter estimation approach is developed for derivation of the unknown mixture parameters in mixed distribution models. The statistical analysis of one-year WIM data is firstly performed according to the vehicle type, single axle weight, and GVW. The probability density function (PDF) and cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the GVW data of selected vehicle types are then formulated by use of three kinds of finite mixed distributions (normal, lognormal and Weibull). The mixture parameters are determined by use of the proposed GA-based method. The results indicate that the stochastic properties of the GVW data acquired from the field-instrumented WIM sensors are effectively characterized by the method of finite mixture distributions in conjunction with the proposed GA-based mixture parameter identification algorithm. Moreover, it is revealed that the Weibull mixture distribution is relatively superior in modeling of the WIM data on the basis of the calculated Akaike's information criterion (AIC) values.

Finite element analysis is one of the important methods to study the structural performance. Due to the simplification, discretization and error of structural parameters, numerical model errors always exist. Besides, structural characteristics may also change because of material aging, structural damage, etc., making the initial finite element model cannot simulate the operational response of the structure accurately. Based on Bayesian methods, the initial model can be updated to obtain a more accurate numerical model. This paper presents the work on the field test, modal identification and model updating of a Chinese reinforced concrete pagoda. Based on the ambient vibration test, the acceleration response of the structure under operational environment was collected. The first six translational modes of the structure were identified by the enhanced frequency domain decomposition method. The initial finite element model of the pagoda was established, and the elastic modulus of columns, beams and slabs were selected as model parameters to be updated. Assuming the error between the measured mode and the calculated one follows a Gaussian distribution, the posterior probability density function (PDF) of the parameter to be updated is obtained and the uncertainty is quantitatively evaluated based on the Bayesian statistical theory and the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, and then the optimal values of model parameters can be obtained. The results show that the difference between the calculated frequency of the finite element model and the measured one is reduced, and the modal correlation of the mode shape is improved. The updated numerical model can be used to evaluate the safety of the structure as a benchmark model for structural health monitoring (SHM).

콘크리트 구조물의 주요 열화 현상 중 하나인 염해는 내부 보강재의 부식을 야기하여 최종적으로 구조적 문제를 야기한다. 본 연구에서는 3가지 수준의 물-결합재 비 (0.37, 0.42, 0.47) 및 GGBFS 치환률 (0 %, 30 %, 50 %)을 고려한 콘크리트를 대상으로 재령 1,095일에 촉진염화물 확산 시험을 수행하였다. Tang's method와 ASTM C 1202에 준하여 각 배합의 촉진 염화물 확산계수 및 통과 전하량을 평가하였으며 선행 연구의 이전재령일 시험결과와의 고찰을 통해 재령의 증가에 따라 변화하는 내구성능 거동을 고찰하였다. 재령일이 증가함에 따라 통과 전하량과 확산계수는 크게 감소하였으며, 특히 GGBFS를 혼입한 배합에서는 잠재 수경성에 의해 OPC 배합 대비 큰 폭의 감소가 나타났다. 또한 OPC 배합의 통과 전하량 평가 결과의 경우, 재령 1,095일에서도 "Moderate" 등급에 포함되는 배합이 존재하기 때문에 OPC를 단독으로 사용하는 경우 염해에 취약한 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구에서는 촉진 염화물 확산계수 평가 결과를 기반으로 시간의존성지수를 도출하고 설계변수를 확률함수로 가정하여 결정론 및 확률론적 내구수명 해석을 수행하였다. 확률론적 내구수명 해석 시에는 MCS (Monte carlo Simulation)을 이용하여 내구성 파괴확률을 계산하여 내구수명을 도출하였다. 확률론적 내구수명은 결정론적 내구수명 대비 낮은 값을 나타내었는데 이는 목표 파괴 확률을 10 %로 매우 낮게 설정하였기 때문이다. 구조물의 용도에 적합한 목표 파괴확률을 설정하고 설계변수별로 적절한 변동성을 고려할 수 있다면 더욱 경제적인 설계가 가능해지리라 사료된다.

낮은 관측각에서의 해상 클러터 반사계수의 진폭 확률밀도 함수는 각 클러터 패치별 평균 세기가 서로 다르므로 Rayleigh 분포가 아닌 compound Gaussian 분포로 가정하는 것이 일반적이다. 반사계수를 구성하는 텍스쳐(texture) 성분은 Gamma 분포 및 MNLT(memoryless nonlinear transformation)를 이용해서 발생시키지만, 스펙클(speckle) 성분 시뮬레이션에 대해서는 정형화된 방법은 없다. 수신 신호의 스펙트럼을 Gaussian 형태의 도플러 스펙트럼 형태로 모델링한 후 스펙클 성분을 발생시킨 기존 S.

The pressure tube is a major component of the CANDU reactor, which supports nuclear fuel bundle and heavy water coolant. Pressure tubes are installed horizontally inside the reactor and only selected samples are periodically examined during in-service inspection. In this respect, a probabilistic safety assessment method is more appropriate fur the assessment of overall pressure tube safety. The failure behavior of CANDU pressure tubes, however, is governed by delayed hydride cracking which is the major difference from pipings and reactor pressure vessels. Since the delayed hydride cracking has more widely distributed governing parameters, it is impossible to apply a general PFM methodology directly. In this paper, a PFM methodology for the safety assessment of CANDU pressure tubes is introduced by applying Monte Carlo simulation in determining failure probability Initial hydrogen concentration, flaw shape and depth, axial and radial crack growth rate and fracture toughness were considered as probabilistic variables. Parametric study has been done under the base of pressure tube dimension and hydride precipitation temperature in calculating failure probability. Unstable fracture and plastic collapse are used for the failure assessment. The estimated failure probability showed about three-order difference with changing dimensions of pressure tube.

Transmitting correct train control information is important in a train control system which demands safety. The train control information includes the maximum speed of trains, position of preceding trains, incline of tracks and curve sections etc. A radio frequency-communication based train control system is influenced by the noise and interference because the train control information is transmitted by wireless between a on-board system and wayside system. The radio frequency-communication based train control system is a mobile communication system due to moving trains. The inter symbol interference(ISI) occurs by the multipath fading in the mobile ommunication system. As signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) is decreased by the ISI, the train control information is not received correctly. In case of tunnel section, numerous reflected waves exist. Therefore, the power density of receiver is decreased by difference among the received times, magnitudes, phases through the multipath. So, the train suddenly is stopped by the fail-safe operation in the train control system on account of decreasing the power density of receiver. In this paper, a line of sight model-(Additive White Gaussian noise(AWGN) channel), rayleigh and rician fading model are presented. Probability density functions which are related to the SNR are derived from the models. The fading phenomenon severely occurs as a result of analyzing the probability density functions. So, the space diversity method is used in order to reduce the fading effect and it is demonstrated by using Matlab program.

For the frequency-domain spectral fatigue analysis, the probability density function of stress range needs to be estimated based on the stress spectrum only, which is a frequency domain representation of the response. The probability distribution of the stress range of the narrow-band spectrum is known to follow the Rayleigh distribution, however the PDF of wide-band spectrum is difficult to define with clarity due to the complicated fluctuation pattern of spectrum. In this paper, efforts have been made to figure out the links between the probability density function of stress range to the structural response of wide-band Gaussian random process. An artificial neural network scheme, known as one of the most powerful system identification methods, was used to identify the multivariate functional relationship between the idealized wide-band spectrums and resulting probability density functions. To achieve this, the spectrums were idealized as a superposition of two triangles with arbitrary location, height and width, targeting to comprise wide-band spectrum, and the probability density functions were represented by the linear combination of equally spaced Gaussian basis functions. To train the network under supervision, varieties of different wide-band spectrums were assumed and the converged probability density function of the stress range was derived using the rainflow counting method and all these data sets were fed into the three layer perceptron model. This nonlinear least square problem was solved using Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm with regularization term included. It was proven that the network trained using the given data set could reproduce the probability density function of arbitrary wide-band spectrum of two triangles with great success.

The number of car accident is Recently on the increase in Korea because of the explosive increase of cars, the poor road condition, the lack of safety facility, and others. The insurant with a accident has to decide whether receiving a insurance or not. In this paper, we represent a reasonable decision support material by calculating the approximate insurance fee based on the discount rate and premium additive rate, which is changed by the accident type and the accident expenditure. Practically, there is difference in the standard insurance rate and premium additive rate according to the accident type and the accident expenditure in Korea. The premium additive rate is assessed considering the number of accident, the pattern of accident, and the reason of accident for 3 years. In this paper, we represent a decision making method considering not only the first-time car accident but also the future car accident. For considering the repeated accident, we analyzed the real data accumulated until the year of 1996 from S Insurance Company, and estimated the probability density function between the first and the second-time accident, and executed the goodness of fit test using ARENA and STATISTICA software. Using this conditional PDF, we can calculate the insurance fee next 3 years and compare the insurance fee with the equivalent present value of cash flows. The program performing this analysis is represented, and written in VISUAL BASIC Language. We tried to suggest an accurate guideline for the insurant to decide the insurance coverage rationally, and tried to correct a wrong idea of dependence on the car insurance only by the amount of the accident expenditure. And we expect this study can generally be applied to many different accident types under the uncertain circumstances in our daily life.
