PURPOSES : The purpose of this paper is to analyze the change in lane reflection performance through lane washing and sweeping on highway lanes. METHODS : This paper compared and analyzed the changes in lane reflection performance before and after lane washing and sweeping. The research method was as follows. First, we selected four research sites on the Gyeong-bu Highway. Second, the parameters affecting lane reflection performance are classified into luminance, brightness, and number of glass beads. Third, the change in reflection performance was measured after washing /sweeping at the same place after studying 60m of the unwashed/unswept area. Fourth, the measurement results were compared and analyzed before and after lane washing/sweeping. RESULTS : The results of this study are as follows. First, lane washing improved the luminance and brightness by 4.2~21.4% and 1.4~5.1%, respectively, and reduced the number of glass beads per wash by 0.2~1.2%. Second, lane sweeping improved the luminance and brightness by 2.3~8.5% and 0.8~2.3%, respectively, and reduced the number of glass beads per sweep by 0.8~4.9%. CONCLUSIONS : By comparing the results of lane washing and sweeping, it was found that compared to lane sweeping, lane washing improved the luminance and fewer glass beads were dropped.

In this paper, the distortion of an electrical pulse with rise/fall time resulting from dispersion and reflection as it propagates along a tapered microstrip line is investigated, and the delay time and distortion rate with respect to input and load impedances are analyzed on triangular and exponential tapered lines and analyzed the influence of the reflection and frequency dispersion on the distorted voltage wave in the tapered lines. The observed overshoot in front of the distorted wave is caused due to the frequency dispersion and the sustained tail of that comes from the reflection in the tapered line.

In this paper, acoustic reflection microscope system has been built for the purpose of detecting subsurface defects in materials and demonstrated for nondestructive testing application. 100 won coin, aluminuim, ceramics, and IC component employed as experimental samples and acoustic reflection microscope was operated in the focused and defocused mode at a frequency of operation of 3 MHz. It has been found that acoustic reflection icroscope has the resolution of 500 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and it has been an excellent tool for nondestructive testing.

Reflection cracks can be occurred in the asphalt layer overlaid on portland cement concrete pavements, because this layer is sensitive to environmental conditions including temperature changes and displacements of the pavement. A result of trial applications using glass fiber grids is introduced in this paper. Glass fiber grids were used between the asphalt layer and the concrete base to reduce the reflection crack of the asphalt layer. No cracks were observed in the glass grid installed area about 2 years later from trial constructions.

It is well-known that the ordinary single-parameter Wiener space exhibits a reflection principle. In this paper we establish a reflection principle for a generalized one-parameter Wiener space and apply it to the integration of a class of functionals on this space. We also discuss several notions of a reflection principle for the two-parameter Wiener space, and explore whether these actually hold.

Undesired reflection removal from an image captured through glass window is widely needed with the prevalence of camera. In this paper, we present and implement a reflection removal algorithm, which is specially designed for smart devices. Our implementation requires smart phone application to take two input pictures of the same target, one with flash light on and another with flash light off. Then, we find a flash spot in the picture, match the features to align the input pictures, transform the color space, and finally combine the pictures. As the result, we get a resulting image with removed reflection, achieving the visually pleasant.

In this paper, we propose a simple algorithm to calculate the number of passing cars at night by using an image processing sensor for digital black and white images with 256 tone levels. To recognize cars, we capture their head lamps. The reflection of the head lamps is one of the most troublesome factors in recognizing cars. The main problem in this paper is how to recognize cars under the influence of the reflection of the head lamps especially in rainy days. In general, the image of a head lamp is nearly circular and the reflection is long and narrow. On the difference of these forms, we can exclude the reflection in our proposed algorithms For real-time operation and simple calculation, we recognize the existence of cars using fifteen lines with 256 tone levels. In the experimental application on a road, the recognition rate of a real-time operation is more than 90%. Moreover, we will also explain briefly how to recognize passing cars for 24 hours.

This paper describes a series of fundamental studies on reflection and emission of weak pressure waves from an open end of a pipe. Acoustical theories which have been employed in the plane pressure waves inside a pipe are applied to the present study. The objective of the present study is to investigate the reflection or emission coefficient of pressure wave at an open end of a pipe, the length of open end correction, and the directivity characteristics of the pressure waves emitted from the pipe. The results show that the reflection coefficient of pressure wave at an open end and the length of open end correction decrease for the wave length of pressure wave to increase. It is also found that the reflection coefficient for a baffle plate at the exit of pipe is larger than that for no baffle plate.

The most important factor in enhancing the performance of an optical device is to minimize reflection and increasing transmittance of light for a broad wavelength range. The choice of appropriate coating material is crucial in decreasing reflection losses at the substrate. The purpose of this review is to highlight anti-reflection coating (ARC) materials that can be applied to silicon solar cell and glass substrate for minimizing reflection losses. The optical and electrical behavior of ARC on a substrate is highly dependent on thickness and refractive index (RI) of ARC films that are being deposited on it. The coating techniques and performance of single and multi-layered ARC films after coated on a substrate in a wide range of wavelength spectrum will be studied in the paper.

This paper proposes a force reflection control method with a speed saturation compensation scheme for the slave manipulators having a speed saturation due to the high reduction ratio joints. When speed saturation is generated, the proposed force reflection control method not only shows an anti-windup feature in controlling the slave manipulator but also makes the master manipulator move slowly using the force reflection caused by saturation. In this way, the position of the slave manipulator tracks the reference position regardless of speed saturation. The experimental results show that the proposed control method provides excellent performance.
