Ball rolling blending is a popular technique for blending between parametric surfaces. The ball rolling blend surface is conceptually a trajectory of a ball rolling between two base sufaces. It is constructed by sweeping a circular arc along a ball contact curve pair. Since a ball rolling blend surfaces does not have a polynomial form like a Bezier surface patch, it is impossible to apply this method directly to a commercial CAD/CAM system. In this paper an algorithm is developed to approximate a ball rolling blend surface into Bezier surface patches. Least square method is applied to obtain proper Bezier surface patches under a given tolerance. The Bezier surface patches have degree three or more and guarantee VC1-continuity.

A general procedure is presented here to develope seismic design and analysis method for cable-supported bridges like suspension bridges subjected to ground motion. For representing a numerical model of suspension bridges. a new approach which satisfy design conditions for the initial equilibrium state of suspension bridges. without any nonlinear iterations. is proposed. The dynamic behavior of that model is verified by free vibration analysis. This study uses the response spectrum analysis to determine the Peak response of a suspension bridge to earthquake-induced ground motion. The SRSS(Square Root of Sum of Square). modal combination rule, is adopted for each direction, longitudinal and transverse. To illustrate the potential applicability for the seismic design of suspension bridges, a numerical example is presented in which the dynamic response of the Nam-hae suspension bridge subjected to earthquake

In the present study SEAM (Shear Energy Augmented Membrane) elements have been devel-oped. Maintaining the numerical efficiency of conventional membrane elements the effect of out-of-plane deformation (transverse shear deformation) has been incorporated for the purpose of computational stabilization without introducing additional degrees of freedom. Computations are carried out for the deep drawings of square cup to check the validity and the effectiveness of proposed SEAM elements. The computational results are compared with both the existing results. And the effects of process variables like initial sheet thickness punch & die round and clearance are checked

Square tubes used for vehicle structure components have an important role on keeping its stiffness and preserving occupant safety in vehicle collision and rollover in which it experience axial collapse, bending collapse or both. Bending collapse, which absorbs kinetic energy of the impact and retains a survival space for the occupant, is a dominant failure mode in oblique collision and rollover. Thus, in this paper, the bending collapse characteristics such as the maximum bending moment and energy absorption capacity of the square tube replaced by light-weight material were evaluated and presented. The bending test of cantilever tubes which were fabricated with aluminum, GFRP and aluminum/ GFRP hybrid by co-curing process was performed. Then the maximum bending moment and the energy absorption capacity from the moment-angle curve were evaluated. Based on the test results, it was found that aluminum/ GFRP hybrid tube can show better specific energy absorption capacity compared to the pure aluminum or GFRP tube and can convert unstable collapse mode which may occur in pure GFRP tube to stable collapse mode like a aluminum tube in which plastic hinge is developed.

As one of the methods to ameliorate the ray effects which are the nature of anomalous computational effects due to the discretization of the angular variable in discrete ordinates approximations, a computational program, named TWODET (TWO dimensional Discrete Element Transport), has developed in 2 dimensional cartesian coordinates system using the discrete elements method, in which the discrete angle quadratures are steered by the spatially dependent angular fluxes. The results of the TWODET calculation with K-2, L-3 discrete angular quadratures, in the problem of a centrally located, isotropically emitting flat source in an absorbing square, are shown to be more accurate than that of the DOT 4.3 calculation with S-10 full symmetry angular quadratures, in remedy of the ray effect at the edge flux distributions of the square. But the computing time of the TWODET is about 4 times more than that of the DOT 4.3. In the problem of vacuum boundaries just outside of the source region in an absorbing square, the results of the TWODET calculation are shown severely anomalous ray effects, due to the sudden discontinuity between the source and the vacuum, like as the results of the DOT 4.3 calculation. In the probelm of an external source in an absorbing square in which a highly absorbing medium is added, the results of the TWODET calculation with K-3, L-4 show a good ones like as, somewhat more than, that of the DOT 4.3 calculation with S-10.

Acoustic feedback between microphone and receiver can be effectively cancelled adaptive feedback cancellation algorithm. Although many speech sounds have non-Gaussian distribution, most algorithms were tested with speech like sounds whose distribution were Guassian type. In this paper, we proposed an adaptive feedback cancellation algorithm based on independent component analysis (ICA) for digital hearing aid. The algorithm was tested with not only Gaussian distribution but also Laplacian distribution. We verified that the proposed algorithm has better acoustic feedback cancelling performance than conventional normalized root mean square (NLMS) algorithm, especially speech like sounds with Laplacian distribution.

Numerical calculation tools for forging of gear-like components based on kinematically admissible velocity fields for upper bound method applicable to various deformation features of workpiece in forging processes were suggested. Each one of them deals with unidirectional flow of metal on dies, such as external involute spur gear. square spline, internal serrations. A complex calculation tool of gear-like component forging process was built up by combining these kinematically velocity fields. In this paper the workpiece with 110th external and internal teeth is divided into two parts. The deformation of each part is analyzed simultaneously using numerical calculation tool from combined kinematically admissible velocity field. The experimental set-up was installed in a 200 ton hydraulic press. As a result, each kinematically admissible velocity field could be combined with others and the calculated solution are useful to predict the capacity of forging equipment.

This paper deals with kinematic modeling of a car-like planar mobile robot consisting of four conventional fixed wheels attached on two parallel axles. The kinematic model of such a mobile robot requires the description of skidding and sliding frictional motion. Previous kinematic model proposed by Muir and Newman$^{[1]}$ does not include such frictional motions. Thus, does it result in least square solution in estimating a sensed forward velocity solution. A modified kinematic model is proposed by incorporating transnational friction motion into the original algorithm. It is shown that transnational friction motions should be included into kinematic model of the mobile robot to represent its real physical motion.

Consumer's switching behavior from incumbent smartphone to new one can be explained by not merely rational assessment but also affective aspects like aesthetic or pleasure and emotional points like attachment. but, in information system field, researches on affective.emotional factors relatively were insufficient and researches which focus on the perspective of the consumer were more scarcity. consumer's attachment to current smartphone brand and perceived aesthetic on new one would influence rational evaluation to switch or not. Therefore, this study investigates relationship between emotional factors on current smartphone and assessment of new one, in turn, we empirically analyzes purchase intention of the consumer. In order to prove the validity of the hypotheses, this study was applied longitudinal study and then conduct a survey of 212 smartphone users. The analysis results by Partial Least Square (PLS) approach showed that all hypotheses in this study were statistically supported.

There are many research for efficient, robust and invisible watermarking system that protects the digital contents like a image and animation according to growth of IT industry. First of all, frequency domain watermarking system like DWT(Descrete Wavelet Transform) is excellent because of minimum loss of original image and robustness of external attack. But, if we raise the insertion strength of watermark, then blazing of image occurs on existing DWT watermarking system and we should have a regular square image. In this study, we research the overflow check for preventing image from blazing and a robust and invisible watermarking algorithm. And we research a free-size DWT watermarking system using padding bytes, without a dependency of size.
