The experiment using three-dimensional laser Dopperr velocimetery (LDV) measurements and the computation using the Reynolds stress model of the commercial code, FLUENT, were conducted to give a clear understanding on the structure of tip leakage flow in a forward-swept axial-flow fan operating at the maximum efficiency condition. The tip leakage vortex was generated near the position of the minimum wall static pressure, which was located at approximately 12% chord downstream from the leading edge of blade suction side, and developed along the centerline of the pressure trough within the blade passages. A reverse flow between the blade tip region and the casing, induced by tip leakage vortex, acted as a blockage on the through-flow. As a result, high momentum flux was observed below the tip leakage vortex. As the tip leakage vortex proceeded to the aft part of the blade passage, the strength of tip leakage vortex decreased due to the strong interaction with the through-flow and casing boundary layer, and the diffusion of tip leakage vortex caused by high turbulence. In comparison with LDV measurement data, the computed results predicted the complex viscous flow patterns inside the tip region, including the locus of tip leakage vortex center, in a reliable level.

Vulnerable road users such as bike, motorcycle, small automobiles, and etc. are easily attacked or threatened with bigger vehicles than them. So this paper suggests a new approach two-wheelers detection system riding on people based on modified histogram of oriented gradients (HOGs) which is weighted by curvature and local correlation coefficient. This correlation coefficient between two variables, in which one is the person riding a bike and other is its background, can represent correlation relation. First, we extract edge vectors using the curvature of Gaussian and Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) which includes gradient information and differential magnitude as cell based. And then, the value, which is calculated by the correlation coefficient between the area of each cell and one of bike, can be used as the weighting factor in process for normalizing the HOG cell. This paper applied the Adaboost algorithm to make a strong classification from weak classification. The experimental results validate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm show higher than that of the traditional method and under challenging, such as various two-wheeler postures, complex background, and even conclusion.

최근 TFT-LCD (Thin film transistor liquid crystal display)패널의 수요증가에 비례하여 공정상 발생하는 LCD 불량의 수도 증가하고 있다. LCD 불량은 배경화면과 미세한 밝기대비 차이를 가지는 패널상의 불균등한 영역으로서 크게 정형과 비정형으로 나누어지며 사람의 눈에 매끄럽지 않게 보여진다. 이러한 불량은 배경과의 대비 차이가 미세하여 기존의 임계수준 검출이나 윤곽선 검출로는 불량을 검출할 수 없다. 본 논문은 비정형 LCD 불량을 독립성분분석, 적응 임계수준 검출 그리고 왜도를 이용하여 검출하는 방법을 제시한다. 본 검출방법은 잡음이 심한 영상에 대해서도 대응력이 뛰어나며, 생산라인에서 성공적으로 적용된다.

The vacuum cleaner that has no dust bag generates very high level annoying noise. The dominant noise source is the 2$\^$nd/ BPF tone of the rotating impeller. In order to reduce the noise, we identify the acoustic characteristics and reduce the noise of the vacuum cleaner and centrifugal fan. The resonance phenomenon is observed in blade passages and we found out that the resonance frequency is very close to the 2$\^$nd/ BPF. In order to reduce this high-level peak noise, new impeller is designed in this paper. The trailing edge of new impeller is inclined and this makes the flow interactions between the rotating impeller and the stationary diffuser vane occurs with some phase shift. The performance of new impeller is similar to the old one but the overall SPL is reduced about 3.6dBA. The SPL of BPF is reduced about 6dBA and 2$\^$nd/ BPF is reduced about 20dBA. The vacuum cleaner, which uses newly developed centrifugal fan, generate more comfortable noise than the old model and the strong tonal sound was dramatically reduced.

1976년, 1980년 11월에 실시된 해양관측 자료와 인공위성에 의한 적외선 사진을 이용하여 대한해협 근해의 전선구조에 대하여 연구하였다. 수온 및 염분전선의 위치는 서로 일치하며 40∼60km의 파장과 15∼20km의 진폭을 갖는 사행운동을 한다. 전선대의 연안쪽 경계를 따라서 33%미만의 염분극소지역이 나타난다. 전선대의 폭은 대체로 내부변형반경인 5∼10km에, 밀도전선면이 경사진 폭은 내부변형반경의 두배에 해당된다. 4∼5일 간격으로 찍은 일련의 적외선 사진들은 해저지형이 매우 완만한 대한해협 서쪽 해역에서 전선대의 변형 이 특히 심하게 일어남을 보여준다.

Some authors have concluded that spiral structures and shocks do not develop if an adiabatic index $\gamma$ > 1.16 is adopted in accretion disc modelling, whilst others have claimed that they obtained well defined spirals and shocks adopting a $\gamma$ = 1.2 and a $M_2/ M_1$ = 1 stellar mass ratio. In our opinion, it should be possible to develop spiral structures for low compressibility gas accretion discs if the primary component is a black hole. We considered a primary black hole of 8M0 and a small secondary component of 0.5M$\bigodot$ to favour spiral structures formations and possible spiral shocks via gas compression due to a strong gravitational attraction. We performed two 3D SPH simulations and two 2D SPH simulations and characterized a low compressibility model and a high compressibility model for each couple of simulations. 2D models reveal spiral structures existence. Moreover, spiral shocks are also evident in high compressibility 2D model at the outer disc edge. We believe that we could develop even well defined spiral shocks considering a more massive primary component.

The discoveries of antiferromagnetic coupling in Fe/Cr multilayers by Grunberg, the Giant Magneto Resistance by Fert and Grunberg and a large tunneling magnetoresistance at room temperature by Moodera have triggered enormous research on magnetic thin films and magnetoelectronic devices. Large opportunities are especially opened by the spin dependent tunneling resistance, where a strong dependence of the tunneling current on an external magnetic field can be found. We will briefly address important basic properties of these junctions like thermal, magnetic and dielectric stability and discuss scaling issues down to junction sizes below 0.01 $\mu\textrm{m}$$^2$with respect to single domain behavior, switching properties and edge coupling effects. The second part will give an overview on applications beyond the use of the tunneling elements as storage cells in MRAMs. This concerns mainly field programmable logic circuits, where we demonstrate the clocked operation of a programmed AND gate. The second 'unconventional' feature is the use as sensing elements in DNA or protein biochips, where molecules marked magnetically with commercial beads can be detected via the dipole stray field in a highly sensitive and relatively simple way.

Charged carbon clusters which are formed by the gas activation are suggested to be responsible for the formation of the metastable diamond film. The number of carbon atoms in the cluster that can reverse the stability between diamond and graphite by the capillary effect increases sensitively with increasing the surface energy ratio of graphite to diamond. The gas activation process produces charges such as electrons and ions, which are energetically the strong heterogeneous nucleation sites for the supersaturated carbon vapor, leading to the formation of the charged clusters. Once the carbon clusters are charged, the surface energy of diamond can be reduced by the electrical double layer while that of graphite cannot because diamond is dielectric and graphite is conducting. The unusual phenomena observed in the chemical vapor deposition diamond process can be successfully approached by the charged cluster model. These phenomena include the diamond deposition with the simultaneous graphite etching, which is known as the thermodynamic paradox and the preferential formation of diamond on the convex edge, which is against the well-established concept of the heterogeneous nucleation.

We analyze the dependence of environment of warped galaxies by using the local background density, Tidal Index and projected distance as measures of the environment. we use galaxies with redshift less than z=0.025 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR7. We selected 345 edge-on galaxies using color images provided by the SDSS DR7 and checked it using isophotal maps. This sample contains 136 warped galaxies, 209 non-warped galaxies. Among warped galaxies, there are 18 strongly warped galaxies which have warp angles larger than 7.5o. We calculated the fractional distributions of galaxies as a function of environmental parameters. All of these parameters show little difference between warped galaxies and non-warped galaxies if we include weakly warped galaxies. However, there is a clear difference in the fractional distributions between the strongly warped galaxies and non-warped galaxies. The fraction of warped galaxies increases with decreasing distance to the nearest neighbor galaxy but It increases with increasing background density and Tidal Index. However, the relationships between warp angles and the three environmental parameters are not strong. The effect of Tidal Index is well distinguished in small, bright galaxies whereas the effects of the background density and the distance to the nearest neighbor galaxy are more pronounced in large, bright galaxies.
