  • The topic of this study is the field of humanitarian logistics for disaster response. Many existing studies have revealed that compliance with the golden time in response to a disaster determines the success or failure of relief activities, and logistics costs account for 80% of the disaster response cost. Besides, the agility, responsiveness, and effectiveness of the humanitarian logistics system are emphasized in consideration of the disaster situation's characteristics, such as the urgency of life-saving and rapid environmental changes. In other words, they emphasize the importance of logistics activities in disaster response, which includes the effective and efficient distribution of relief supplies. This study proposes a mathematical model for establishing a transport plan to distribute relief supplies in a disaster situation. To determine vehicles' route and the amount of relief for cities suffering a disaster, it mainly considers the urgency, effectiveness (restoration rate), and uncertainty in the logistics system. The model is initially developed as a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) model containing some nonlinear functions and transform into a Mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model using a logarithmic transformation and piecewise linear approximation method. Furthermore, a minimax problem is suggested to search for breakpoints and slopes to define a piecewise linear function that minimizes the linear approximation error. A numerical experiment is performed to verify the MILP model, and linear approximation error is also analyzed in the experiment.

  • In this paper, the optimal homing guidance problem is investigated for the general missile/target models described in the state-space. The closed-form solution of the optimal guidance law derived, and its asymptotic properties are studied as the time-to-go goes to infinity or zero. Futhermore, several approximate solutions of the optimal guidance law are suggested for real-time applications.

  • Assessment and management of fisheries abundance in fresh water like a river or a lake is very important to maintain fisheries itself as well as tourist industry even if their scale is not much large. The species for catch in fresh water are mainly a mandarin fish, a carp, an eel, and others. Because oriental river prawn is a main prey of these species and the change in its abundance is directly related to their abundance change in fresh water, information on the abundance and distribution of the species are necessary. Hydroacoustic survey is known to one of the efficient method among several methodology. Information on acoustic target strength is key parameter to estimate abundance for acoustic survey. In this study, measurements on oriental river prawn, Macrobrachium koreana, were conducted for two high frequencies(200kHz and 420kHz) with tilt angle using automatic rotating system. The results of acoustic target strength obtained from the experiment were compared with those of acoustic scattering model, Distorted Wave Born Approximation(DWBA) model. For 200kHz, the result of acoustic target strength experiments was expressed in terms of the averaged target strength dependence on the body langth(BL, cm) as a following relationship; < $TS_{200kHz}$ > = 45.9log(BL) - 107.4. These results provide basic information for studying acoustic target strength and conducting acoustic survey of oriental river prawn.

  • A calibration method for multiple sets of stereo vision cameras is proposed. To measure the three-dimensional shape of a very long object, measuring the object at different viewpoints and registration of the data are necessary. In this study, two lasers beams generate two strings of calibration targets, which form straight lines in the world coordinate system. An evaluation function is defined to calculate the sum of the squares of the distances between each transformed target and the fitted line representing the laser beam to each target, and the distances between points appearing in the data sets of two adjacent viewpoints. The calculation process for the approximation method based on data linearity is presented. The experimental results show the effectiveness of the method.

  • In Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR) imaging, the echoed data are collected by moving radar's position with respect to the target area, and this operation actually gives effect of synthesizing aperture size, which in turn gives better cross range resolution of reconstructed target scene. Among several inversion scheme for SAR Imaging, we uses an inversion scheme which uses no approximation in wave propagation analysis, and try to verify whether the collected data with synthesized aperture actually gives the same support as that with physical aperture in the same size. To do this, we make a signal subspace comparison of two imaging models with physical and synthesized arrays, respectively. Theoretical comparison and numerical analysis using Gram-Schmidt procedures had been performed. The results showed that the synthesized array data fully span the physical array data with the same system geometry and strongly support the proposed inversion scheme valuable in high resolution radar imaging.

  • In this paper, the method to modify a surface through three dimensional vector field technique is presented, In this method two guide surfaces are required as a shape reference. One is the shape of original surface, the other is the target shape for the result surface. Proposed method is consists of two steps. The first step is to calculate the mapping points on original and target guide surfaces so that the shape error may be minimized. The second step is to construct the smooth vector field from mapping points of the first step. The developed method is applied to shoe design system which makes the surface modeling very easy and effective.

  • In this paper, we propose the design methodology of target tracking system using fuzzy basis function expansion(FBFE) based on virus evolutionary genetic algorithm (VEGA). In general, the objective of target tracking is to estimate the future trajectory of the target based on the past position of the target obtained from the sensor. In the conventional and mathematical nonlinear filtering method such as extended Kalman filter(EKF), the performance of the system may be deteriorated in highly nonlinear situation. To resolve these problems of nonlinear filtering technique, by appling artificial intelligent technique to the tracking control of moving targets, we combine the advantages of both traditional and intelligent control technique. In the proposed method, after composing training datum from the parameters of extended Kalman filter, by combining FDFE, which has the strong ability for the approximation, with VEGA, which prevent GA from converging prematurely in the case of lack of genetic diversity of population, and by idenLifying the parameters and rule numbers of fuzzy basis function simultaneously, we can reduce the tracking error of EKF. Finally, the proposed method is applied to three dimensional tracking problem, and the simulation results shows that the tracking performance is improved by the proposed method.

  • The measurements of X-ray production cross-sections for 0.5~1.2-MeV proton beam are carried out on Cu and Au. For this experiment, the proton tram generated from the SNU 1.5-MV Tandem Van do Graaff accelerator is Incident on the target. The X-rays and the backscattered protons from the irradiated target are detected simultaneously by the Si(Li) X-ray detector and the SSB (Silicone Surface Barrier) charged particle detector The measured values of X-ray production cross-sections are compared with other experimental values and theoretical values such as the PWBA (Plane Wave Born Approximation) and the ECPSSR(Perturbed Stationary State corrected Energy loss, Coulomb deflection, Relativistic effects) values. For measured cross-sections near 1.0- MeV proton energy, the ECPSSR (D.D. Cohenet al., 1985) shows better agreement than the PWBA. Particularly, that of Au for 1.2 MeV proton beam is 9.69$\pm$ 0.39 barns which deviates from the ECPSSR by less than 5%. and the experimental data for 0.5~1.2- MeV proton agree with most of other experimental values within 30%.
