Laser flash technique was applied to measure thermal properties of FGM made by a CVD method. System stability and reproducibility of this measuring system were proved and calibrated with glassy carbon used as reference material. Specimens was prepared by cutting FGM diagonally. Measurements were performed for a wide range of temperatures up to 1500K. Relative heat capacity of the FGM specimen was scattered with in $\pm$13% at room temperature and at high temperature above 1200K, and $\pm$3% at medium temperature range. On the other hand, thermal diffusivity data showed excellent reproducibility and stability through the whole temperature range. In conclusion, the multi-target radiometer can be applied to measure the thermal properties of non homogeneous materials like FGM.

A prototype probabilistic approach to thickness design for asphalt pavement surface course was developed using first-order second moment probability model. The tensile strain (load effect) developing at the bottom of surface layer due to the wheel load and the critical strain (resistance) of asphalt concrete were used as random variables for pavement reliability analysis. Based on the parameters for load effect and resistance data collected from reference and field, simulated data were generated by Monte Carlo method for reliability evaluation of the pavement for a typical rural highway. Thickness of pavement surface course was defined in terms of target reliability of the pavement, growth factor of traffic, design life of pavement and resistance of the asphalt concrete to be placed on the pavement. According to these rationales, prototype thickness design chrats were sugested through example studies. From these, similar design charts can be developed for many pavements if appropriate data and target reliability are determined.

본 논문은 견인선(tow-ship)에서 발생하는 자체 잡음을 제거하여 수중 신호처리 시스템에서 표적 탐지(target detection)와 표적 식별(target identification) 등의 성능 향상을 위하여 표적 방향으로 형성된 빔의 출력을 원시 입력신호(primary input)로 사용하고 견인선 방향으로 형성된 빔의 출력을 참고 입력신호(reference input)로 사용한 적응 잡음 제거기(adaptive noise canceller)에 대해 연구하였다. 잡음 제거를 위해 사용되는 계수들은 LMS(Least Mean Square) 알고리듬을 이용하여 조정하였다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 TDL(Tapped-Delay Line) 구조와 LAT(LATtice) 구조를 갖는 적응 잡음 제거기 성능을 여러 가지 환경에서 비교, 관찰하였다. 두 알고리듬을 사용할 경우, 자체 잡음이 어떠한 형태로 나타나더라도 제거시킬 수 있음을 보여 주었으나 고유값 분포율(eigenvalue spread ratio)이 큰 경우에는 LMS-LAT가 LMS-TDL보다 수렴 속도뿐만 아니라 성능면에서도 우수함을 보였다.

In this paper, the method to modify a surface through three dimensional vector field technique is presented, In this method two guide surfaces are required as a shape reference. One is the shape of original surface, the other is the target shape for the result surface. Proposed method is consists of two steps. The first step is to calculate the mapping points on original and target guide surfaces so that the shape error may be minimized. The second step is to construct the smooth vector field from mapping points of the first step. The developed method is applied to shoe design system which makes the surface modeling very easy and effective.

An efficient and accurate algorithm is proposed to estimate flutter safety factor of suspension bridges satisfying prescribed reliability levels. Uncertainties which arise from the basic wind speed at the bridge deck location, critical flutter velocity, the wind conversion factor from a scaled model to the prototype structure and the gust speed factor are incorporated. The proposed algorithm integrates the concepts of the inverse reliability method and the calculation method of the critical flutter velocity of suspension bridges. The unique feature of the proposed method is that it offers a tool for flutter safety assessment of suspension bridges, when the reliability level is specified as a target to be satisfied by the designer. Accuracy and efficiency of this method with reference to three example suspension bridges is studied and numerical results validate its superiority over conventional deterministic method. Finally, the effects of various parameters on the flutter safety factor of suspension bridges are also investigated.

Nonclassical aminobenz[cd]indole antifolates 4, 5 and 6, in which the glutamic acid moiety of the classical antifolates is substituted by 2-phenylglycinamide or 3-aminobenzamide, were synthesized and their in vitro antitumor activity was evaluated. The purpose of this substitution is that the lipophilicity is enhanced due to the aromatic ring of the target compounds for the passive transport through lipid membrane of cells while the hydrogen bonding of the amide is retained in the active site of the enzyme, thymidylate synthase, where the glutamate is originally present. The target compounds were highly cytotoxic against tumor cell lines of murine and human origin with micromolar to nanomolar $IC_{50}$ values. Most effective was compound 4 ($N^6-methyl-N^6$-[4-[(${\alpha}$(S)-aminocarbonylbenzyl) aminocarbonyl]benzyl]-2,6-diaminobenz[cd]indole)with $IC_{50}$ of 2 nM against SW480, human colon adenocarcinoma cell line, which is 650-fold more potent than the reference compound 3.

Texture transfer is a NPR technique for expressing various styles according to source (reference) image. By late 2000s, there are many texture transfer researches. But video base researchers are not active. Moreover, they didn't use important feature like directional information which need to express detail characteristics of target. So, we propose a new method to generate texture transfer animation (using video) with directional effect for maintaining temporal coherence and controlling coherence direction of texture. For maintaining temporal coherence, we use optical flow and confidence map to adapt for occlusion/disocclusion boundaries. And we control direction of texture for taking structure of input. For expressing various texture effects according to different regions, we calculate gradient based on directional weight. With these techniques, our algorithm can make animation result that maintain temporal coherence and express directional texture effect. It is reflect the characteristics of source and target image well. And our result can express various texture directions automatically.

For more accurate height/depth control of the agricultural implements , the soil surface as a reference position should be measured as accurate as possible. A new measurement system using microwave was developed to detect the true soil surface even under plant and/or vegetation. Two-frequency continuous-wave radar was used as the measurement system. It could estimate the distance to the target by measuring the phase difference between two different frequencies continuous-waves which reflected on the target surface. The system performance was evaluated on the barely field where the average height of barley was 91.5 cm. The experimental results showed that the system performance was not affected by the existence of barely. The maximum measurement errors were 8.91 com and 8.44cm for two different experimental plots.

High performance concrete mixes are selected and corresponding test specimens are made for the study of chloride diffusion coefficient at reference time. The concrete mixes were same designs as those used in construction of bridges located in a marine environment. Mix design variables included binder type, water-to-binder ratio, mineral admixtures to total binder weight substitution ratio, fine aggregate source, chemical water reducer admixture type for high strength and high flowability, and target slump or slump flow. The test results showed that the diffusion coefficients at reference time varied significantly according to the type of mineral admixtures and their substitution ratios. A model for diffusion coefficient at reference time considering the type of mineral admixture and the substitution ratio was developed. Diffusion coefficients from the developed model were compared with those from literature review, a previous model, and additional test results. All of the comparisons verified that the developed model can reasonably predict diffusion coefficients and the application of the model to the durability design against chloride penetration is appropriate.
