Similar to Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), a Single Carrier with Frequency Domain Equalization (SC-FDE) system is computationally efficient since equalization is performed on a block of data in the frequency domain. In coherent QAM schemes, the mean phase rotation error caused by the residual carrier frequency offset may lead to serious degradation. When the frequency equalizer is combined with the mean phase error tracking algorithm, its performance can be enhanced noticeably.

Single image Super-Resolution (SISR) aims to generate a visually pleasing high-resolution image from its degraded low-resolution measurement. In recent years, deep learning - based super - resolution methods have been actively researched and have shown more reliable and high performance. A typical method is WaveletSRNet, which restores high-resolution images through wavelet coefficient learning based on feature maps of images. However, there are two disadvantages in WaveletSRNet. One is a big processing time due to the complexity of the algorithm. The other is not to utilize feature maps efficiently when extracting input image's features. To improve this problems, we propose an efficient single image super resolution method, named RDB-WaveletSRNet. The proposed method uses the residual dense block to effectively extract low-resolution feature maps to improve single image super-resolution performance. We also adjust appropriated growth rates to solve complex computational problems. In addition, wavelet packet decomposition is used to obtain the wavelet coefficients according to the possibility of large scale ratio. In the experimental result on various images, we have proven that the proposed method has faster processing time and better image quality than the conventional methods. Experimental results have shown that the proposed method has better image quality by increasing 0.1813dB of PSNR and 1.17 times faster than the conventional method.

A new class of life distributions is studied. This class is defined based on comparing the residual life time to the whole life in the moment generating function order giving 'the new better than used in the moment generating function order ageing class $(NBU_{mgf})$'. Fundamental properties of this class are given including some closure properties and characterizations. Finally, we consider new results about comparisons of age and block replacement policies when the underlying distribution belongs to $NBU_{mgf}$ aging classes.

In general, soil characteristics are estimated through the sample gathered by field boring without considering sample disturbance. However, soil characteristics must be changed by the degree of sample disturbance. Therefore it be need to estimate the soil characteristic considering sample disturbance which can be occurred by the change of stress condition, sampling technique and handling method. On this study, we analyzed the sample disturbance by using the methods of volume change, residual effective stress, elastic modulus and the curve of consolidation tests. In order to estimate the relationship between sample disturbance and soil characteristics, we used the piston sample and the block sample. As the results, it should be considered in design that the disturbance of the block sample, which affects the strength and compression properties of clay, is smaller than the disturbance of piston sample.

In this letter, an effective scanning method based on a morphological representation of quantized coefficients is proposed for intra coding in H.264. In the proposed scanning method, the scan order for each block is adaptively reconfigured by exploiting a residual correlation beyond the border of the block. An initial scan order for the current block is determined first by using the pattern of nonzero coefficients in the adjacent block. Then, a complete scan order is obtained by performing the dilation operation at each position within the initial scan order. Experimental results show that the proposed method improves the coding efficiency up to 3.7% compared to the conventional zigzag scanning method.

Background: The purpose of this study is to review the clinical course after the correction of noncomplicated ventricular septal defect and to analyze the morbidity and risk factors of postoperative complications and evaluate residual defect during the follow-up period. Material and Method: From September 1994 to June 1998 24 patients(median age 10 months) underwent surgery under the diagnosis of ventricular septal defect. We made a retrospective review of the clinical records including the operation notes critical care unit records echocardiography results and the follow-up records. Result: There was no early mortality nd late mortality. There was no postoperative complete conduction block. Respiratory complication was the most common complication. The body weight age type of ventricular septal defect associated anomalies and operative procedure were not related to the incidence of complications. residual ventricular septal defects aortic valve regurgitation and tricuspid valve regurgitation were insignificant in postoperative hemodynamics, Conclusions: Correction of the noncomplicated ventricular septal defect was done without mortality and complete heart block. Aggressive preoperative medical treatment and early surgical treatment may decrease postoperative complications. Postoperative residual shunt and tricuspid regurgitation were not problematic during the follow-up

Despite a number of advantages of reinforced earth walls over conventional concrete retaining walls, there exit concerns over long-term residual deformation when they are subjected to repeated and/or cyclic loads, especially when used as part of permanent structures. In view of these concerns, in this paper time-dependant deformation characteristics of geosynthetic reinforced modular block walls under sustained anuor repeated loads were investigated using reduced-scale model tests. The results indicated that a sustained or repeated load can yield appreciable magnitude of residual deformation, and that the residual deformations are influenced not only by the loading characteristics but by the mechanical properties of geogrid. It is also found that the preloading technique can be effectively used in controlling residual deformations of reinforced soils subjected to sustained and/or repeated loads.

Normally all manufacturing and fabrication processes introduce residual stresses in a component. These stresses exist even after all service or external loads have been removed. Residual stresses have been studied elaborately in the past and even in depth research have been done to determine their magnitude and distribution during different manufacturing processes. But very few works have dealt with the study of residual stresses formation during the casting process. Even though these stresses are less in magnitude, they still result in crack formation and subsequent failure in later phases of the component usage. In this work, the residual stresses developed in a shifter during casting process are first determined by finite element analysis using ANSYS(R) Mechanical APDL, Release 12.0 software. Initially the analysis was done on a simple block to determine the optimum element size and boundary conditions. With these values, the actual shifter component was analyzed. All these simulations are done in an uncoupled thermal and structural environment. The results showed the areas of maximum residual stress. This was followed by the geometrical optimization of the cast part for minimum residual stresses. The resulting shape gave lesser and more evenly distributed residual stresses. Crack compliance method was used to experimentally determine the residual stresses in the modified cast part. The results obtained from the measurements are verified by finite element analysis findings.

Sludge generated in the production of ready-mixed concrete is classified as waste and processed at a high cost. In particular, small and medium-sized ready-mix manufacturer are burdened with such costs, and some companies are illegally processing them. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to suggest a method for recycled remicon sludge as a concrete block composition. When the remicon sludge is simply dried, the residual chemical admixture and ettringitee contained in the sludge are present, so that the compressive strength of the concrete block and the compressive strength after freezing and thawing are largely deteriorated to meet the quality standards of the concrete shore and retaining wall block It was not possible to do. As a method for satisfying the physical performance, it was found that the remicon sludge was calcined at a high temperature of about $900^{\circ}C$. to decompose ettringite and residual chemical admixture and then used it.

As deep learning technology advances and various high-resolution remote sensing images are available, interest in using deep learning technology and remote sensing big data to detect buildings and change in urban areas is increasing significantly. In this paper, for semantic building segmentation of high-resolution remote sensing images, we propose a new building segmentation model, Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM)-DRUNet that uses the DeepResUNet model, which has excellent performance in building segmentation, as the basic structure, improves the residual learning unit and combines a CBAM with the basic structure. In the performance evaluation using WHU dataset and INRIA dataset, the proposed building segmentation model showed excellent performance in terms of F1 score, accuracy and recall compared to ResUNet and DeepResUNet including UNet.
