Even if smoke, fumes, mist or dust particles are removed by electrostatic precipitators (ESPs), the occurrence of ozone, which is harmful to human body, has to be severely restricted in the indoor environments of hospitals, offices, and workshops. Therefore, the two-stage ESP generating positive corona at the ionizer is typically used because it creates less ozone than the two-stage ESP generating negative corona at the ionizer. In order to predict the collection performance and the optimal design of the two-stage ESP applied to positive high-voltage, particle concentration is experimentally investigated in this paper. In addition, particle motion within the collector section is also numerically analyzed. The positive corona discharge current of the ionizer is found to be affected by the applied voltage in the collector section but less so by the particle concentration. Particle concentration shows a minimum near the high voltage electrode of the collector section. The minimum value of the collection efficiency is almost proportional to gas velocity. When the collector length decreases, the minimum value of the collection efficiency increases. Charged particles entering the collector region are linearly deflected towards the grounded plate by an electric field. From the above experimental and numerical results, two empirical equations on the concentration ratio and the collection efficiency are derived, and are in good agreement with the experimental data.

Hardware components are an integral part of Hardware Define Radio (HDR) for seamless operations and optimal performance. On the other hand, Software Define Radio (SDR) is a program that does not rely on any hardware components for its performance. Both of the latter radio programmers utilize modulation functions to make their core components from signal processing viewpoint. The following paper concentrates on SDR based modulation and their performance under different modulations. The bit error rate (BER) of modulations such as PSK, QAM, and PSAM were used as indicators to test channel quality estimation in planar Rayleigh fading. Though it is not commonly used for channel fading, the method of the adder determines the regionally segmented channel fading. Thus, the estimation error of the channel change substantially reduces the performance of the signal, hence, proving to be an effective option. Moreover, this paper also elaborates that BER is calculated as a function of the sample size (signal length) with an average of 20 decibels. Consequently, the size of the results for different modulation schemes has been explored. The analytical results through derivations have been verified through computer simulation. The results focused on parameters of amplitude estimation error for 1dB reduction in the average signal-to-noise ratio, while the combined amplitude deviation estimation error results are obtained for a 3.5 dB reduction

Three kinds of metallic sandwich panels with quasi-Kagome truss cores have been analyzed on their mechanical behaviors subjected to bending load. According to the results of previous work on the optimal design, they were designed to have similarly high strength per weight with the identical overall sizes, i.e., the total length, the width, the core height. Differences were in the face sheet thickness and/or the thickness of the metal sheet from which the core was fabricated through expanding and bending processes. Under the bending load, they performed well as designed, as far as the maximum load is concerned. However, after the maximum load, the load-displacement curves were different each other depending on the slenderness ratio of the truss elements composing the quasi-Kagome truss cores and the face sheet thickness. Namely, the slenderness ratio and the face sheet thickness governed stability of the elastic and plastic buckling. Therefore, if energy absorption characteristics or structural stability as well as the maximum load capacity are to be achieved, the sandwich panel with thick truss members and thick face sheet should be selected.

The main advantages of Disk type Single-Phase Switched Reluctance Motor (DSPSRM) is the simple construction, rugged structure, low manufacturing cost and simple driving circuit. It is especially possible to make the short axial length of DSPSRM. Therefore, it is suitable to setup this motor in a narrow space. This paper presents the shape design to maximize the average torque of DSPSRM that is achieved by 3D Finite Element Method (3D FEM) considering the nonlinear of magnetic material. The characteristics of two different rotor shapes are compared. The design parameters, such as the rotor and stator pole arc, are selected to the parametric study. The effect of pole arc ratios on the torque performance is investigated. From these results, the optimal pole arc to produce the maximum torque is determined.

The EMG amplitude estimator, which has been investigated as an indicator of muscle force, is of high relevance not only in biomechanical studies but also more and more in clinical applications. This paper presents a new approach to estimate surface EMG amplitude by using the mean spike and mean turn amplitude(MSA and MTA) variables. Surface EMG signals, a total of 198 signals, were recorded from biceps brachii muscle over the range of 20-80%MVC isometric contraction and performance of the MSA and MTA variables applied to amplitude estimation of the EMG signals were investigated. To examine the performance, a SNR(signal-to-noise ratio) was computed from each amplitude estimate. The results of the study indicate that MSA and MTA amplitude estimations with first order whitening filter and 300[ms]-350[ms] moving average window length are optimal and show better performance(mean SNR improvement of 6%-15%) than the most frequently used variables(ARV and RMS).

The human chromosome analysis is widely used to diagnose genetic disease and various congenital anomalies. Many researches on automated chromosome karyotype analysis has been carried out, some of which produced commercial systems. However, there still remains much room or improving the accuracy of chromosome classification. In this paper, We propose an optimal pattern classifier by neural network to improve the accuracy of chromosome classification. The proposed pattern classifier was built up of multi-step multi-layer neural network(MMANN). We reconstructed chromosome image to improve the chromosome classification accuracy and extracted three morphological features parameters such as centromeric index(C.I.), relative length ratio(R.L.), and relative area ratio(R.A.). This Parameters employed as input in neural network by preprocessing twenty human chromosome images. The experiment results show that the chromosome classification error is reduced much more than that of the other classification methods.

본 논문에서는 LLR (Log-Likelihood Ratio) 근사화가 LDPC (Low-Density Parity Check) 복호기의 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으며, 이를 통해 LDPC 복호기의 최적 설계조건을 도출하였다. LLR 합-곱 (LLR sum-product) LDPC 복호 알고리듬을 근사화시킨 최소합 알고리듬 (Min-Sum Algorithm; MSA)을 Matlab으로 모델링한 후, 시뮬레이션을 통해 근사화 비트 폭과 최대 반복 복호 횟수에 따른 비트오율 (BER) 성능을 분석하였다. 모델링된 LDPC 복호기는 IEEE 802.11n 표준에 제안된 블록길이 1,944비트, 부호화율 1/2인 패리티 검사 행렬을 사용하였으며, QPSK 변조와 백색 가우시안 잡음채널 하에서 시뮬레이션 하였다. LLR 근사화에 따른 비트오율 성능을 분석한 결과, LLR 비트 폭은 (7,5)이고 반복복호 횟수는 7인 경우에 비트오률 성능이 가장 우수함을 확인하였다.

AC Superconducting Generators (ACSG) are featured by 3D magnetic flux distribution, which decreases in the direction of axis. For this reason, when ACSG is optimal designed, 3D magnetic field analysis is required. This paper proposes 2D Finite Element Analysis (FEA) results normalized by 3D FEA according to the position of armature coil and the ratio of field coil width to axial length in order to reduce the analysis time. By using the proposed data, the reasonable 3D FEA results of ACSG can be only predicted by 2D FEA results. The validity of the 3D FEA results is verified by comparison with the experimental results of 30kVA superconducting synchronous generator.

In this paper, input-output transmission characteristics of the Eclipse, which is a parallel machine tool capable of 5 face rapid machining, are investigated. By splitting the weighted Jacobian matrix into two parts, the force and moment transmission characteristics together with the velocity and angular velocity transmission characteristics are analyzed. A new manipulability measure, which combines the volume of the manipulability ellipsoid and the condition number of the splitted Jcobian matrix, is proposed. Two link parameters, the ratio of upper and lower platforms' radii and the length of a supporting link of the Eclipse, are designed by applying the new manipulability measure derived. Computer simulations are provided.
