Points of sharp variations in image are the most important components when we analyze the features of image. And they include a variety of information about image's shape and location etc. So a lot of researches for detecting edges have been continued. Edge detection operators which were used at the early stage of the research were to utilize relations among neighboring pixels. These methods detect edge at all boundaries, therefore they perform edge detection twice about curves below some width such as line-edge. In the meantime, wavelet transform which is presented as a new technique of signal processing field provides multiscale edge detection and is being applied widely in many fields that analyze edge-like characteristic. Therefore, in this paper we detected line-edge with new 2-D wavelet function which is independent of line's width.

In this paper, we present an improved novel interpolator that performs high quality interpolation on both synthetic and real world images. Its structure, which is based on a four directional linear predictor with equiripple windowed samples and phase matching equalizer, provides edge-directional data interpolation so that sharp and artifacts-free images are obtained at a reasonable computational cost.

Bending work using press dies involves bending a flat blank to a desired angle. The bending produces a flange (the bent part) and a web (the unbent part). The bending line will have a bending angle, and there is an inner and outer bending radius. The minimum inner radius size is determined by the material used. When the inner radius size is too small, there will be excess metal welding, which will cause a crack in the outer radius part. The outer bending radius size cannot be controlled by a bending punch and die block. Types of bending include V-bending, U-bending, O-bending, edge bending, twist bending, and crimping. Z-bending involves two bending lines, which are set on the upper side and under surface of the blank, respectively, and upward or downward bending is used. Z-bending is also called crank bending. Z-bending using this type of die structure will produce a standard inner bending radius. The standard size is the minimum bending radius that represents the angle radius of the bending punch. In industry, there is a need for a sharp edge shape with a very small size (R=0.2mm), but that is not possible when using bending punch and die block. The purpose of this research is to meet the need by development.

In micro-machining, diamond tool is commonly used because it brings much better micro-machinability due to its edge sharpness. However, it is a big question even how thinly the sharp edge of a diamond tool can cut a ship from the workpiece surface. This paper is to investigate the critical cutting depth, at which the dominant cutting mode changes from chip formation to burnishing or vice versa, for a given edge radius. The theoretically critical cutting depth is 0.25$\mu\textrm{m}$(0.8$\mu\textrm{m}$) in cutting using a square type(V-type) diamond tool that has edge radius of 1$\mu\textrm{m}$(1.5$\mu\textrm{m}$). Experimentally, the dominant cutting mode changes and cutting surface becomes better at critical cutting depth. To get high quality surface, depth of cut must be critical cutting depth because less plastically deformed substrate is left on the surface.

We researched carbon nanotube(CNT) cartridge as a CNT sample for the fabrication of nanotweezer which is composed of a couple of single CNT tip. Our CNT cartridge was made by dielectrophoretic methods, a kind of micromanipulation technique using electric field. Therein we intended to fabricate the CNT cartridge with just conventional function generators and a set of simple electrode. A knife edge and a flat metal electrode were employed as a couple of electrode, and these electrode pair faced each other with the gap. When the gap is filled with CNT suspension, we induced AC electric field into the gap. Then CNTs was attached on the sharp edge in knife edge by dielectrophoresis. This knife edge with attached CNTs is called as the CNT cartridge.

An experimental performance test has been carried out to improve a new blade with higher performance. Most of blades of the fan are designed to be a seamless and simple type, and the flow momentum can generally be evaluated to be comparatively low. Because some portions of the blowing winds can easily be passed through the seamless sharp edge of the blade, and several results studied on these problems have been reported: on the simple blade with edge-line seam, on the simple blade with guide seam. However the results do not show the remarkable increasement of performance of the blades. In this experimental performance test of the blades the design techniques of the blades with double seams (stem seam and edge seam) and comparison tests have been focused. As a first step the comparisons of velocity distributions and flow-rates depending upon the blade are presented in this paper.

The vortical flows over sharp-edged delta wings with and without a leading edge extension have been investigated using a computational method. Three-dimensional compressible Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved to provide an understanding of the effects of the angle of attack and the angle of yaw on the development and interaction of vortices and the aerodynamic characteristics of the delta wing at a freestream velocity of 20 m/s. The present computations provide qualitatively reasonable predictions of vortical flow characteristics, compared with past wind tunnel measurements. In the presence of a leading edge extension, a significant change in the suction pressure peak in the chordwise direction is much reduced at a given angle of attack. The leading edge extension can also stabilize the wing vortex on the windward side at angles of yaw, which dominates the vortical flows over yawed delta wings.

Communication, Ocean And Meteorological Satellite (COMS) Meteorological Imager (MI) images are processed for radiometric and geometric correction from raw image data. When intermediate image data are matched and compared with reference landmark images in the geometrical correction process, various techniques for edge detection can be applied. It is essential to have a precise and correct edged image in this process, since its matching with the reference is directly related to the accuracy of the ground station output images. An edge detection method based on neural networks is applied for the ground processing of MI images for obtaining sharp edges in the correct positions. The simulation results are analyzed and characterized by comparing them with the results of conventional methods, such as Sobel and Canny filters.

Background: The phrase "Nine Needles" refers to the 9 types of acupuncture needles describing their shapes, sizes, and uses in Huangdi's Internal Classic Ling-shu. The aim of this study was to present 3D illustrations of the "Nine Types of Needles" based on Huangdi's Internal classic Ling-shu, taking into consideration the conformation and application of the Nine Needles. Methods: Sketches of the "Nine Needles" were based on references to those needles cited in Huangdi's Internal Classic Ling-shu, the Great Compendium of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, and the Golden Mirror of Medicine. The computer programs Creo 3.0, Keyshot 5, Adobe Photoshop CS5, and Adobe Illustrator CS5 were used for 3D modelling and visualization. Results: Based on a review of Huangdi's Internal Classic Ling-shu, illustrations of the Spade needle, Round-Pointed needle, Pressure needle, Sharp-Edged needle, Sword-Shaped needle, Round-Sharp needle, Fine needle, Long needle, and Large needle, 3D models were created. The Spade needle had a sharp, large head, the Round-Pointed needle had an egg-shaped tip, and the Pressure needle had a blunt head like a grain of millet. The Sharp-Edged needle had a sharp blade with a triangular edge for bloodletting. The Sword-Shaped needle resembled a sword. The Round-Sharp needle resembled a horse's tail. The Fine needle and the Long needle had sharp points and thin bodies. The Large needle had a cylindrical shaft and rounded tip. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that 3D illustrations could be generated for the Nine Needles according to the descriptions and figures provided in the ancient literature.

현재 폭넓게 이용되고 있는 STI (Shallow Trench Isolation) 공정에서 active edge 부분에 발생하는 기생 transistor의 subthreshold hump 특성을 제어하는 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 일반적으로 STI 공정을 이용하는 MOSFET에서 active edge 부분의 얇게 형성된 gate oxide, sharp한 active edge 형성, STI gap-fill 공정 중에 생기는 channel dopant out-diffusion은 subthreshold hump 특성의 주된 요인이다. 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 active edge rounding process와 channel dopant compensation의 implantation을 이용하여 subthresold hump 특성 개선을 연구하였다. 본 연구는 STI 공정에 필요한 wafer와 phosphorus를 함유한 wafer를 한 chamber 안에서 auto-doping하는 방법을 이용하여 subthresold hump 특성을 구현하였다. phosphorus를 함유한 wafer에서 빠져나온 phosphorus가 STI 공정중인 wafer로 침투하여, active edge 부분의 channel dopant인 boron 농도를 상대적으로 낮춰 active edge 부분의 가 감소하고 leakage current를 증가시킨다. transistor의 channel length, gate width이고, wafer#No가 클수록 phosphorous를 함유한 wafer까지의 거리는 가까워진다. wafer #01은 hump 특성이 없고, wafer#20은 에서 심한 subthreshold hump 특성을 보였다. channel length 고정, gate width를 ~으로 가변하여 width에 따른 영향을 실험하였다. active 부분에 대한 SCM image로 확인된 phosphorus에 의한 active edge 부분의 boron 농도 감소와 gate width vs curve에서 확인된 phosphorus에 의한 감소가 narrow width로 갈수록 커짐을 확인하였다.
