In this paper, we propose a novel fast and low-complexity Motion Estimation (ME) algorithm for Ultra High Definition (UHD) High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC). Motion estimation occupies 77~81% of the amount of computation in HEVC. After all, the main key of video codec implementation is to find a fast and low-complexity motion estimation algorithm and architecture. We analyze the previous motion estimation algorithms and propose three optimal algorithm to reduce the computation proportion for HEVC. The proposed algorithm uses only 0.36% of the amount of operations compared to full search algorithm while maintaining compression performance with slight loss of 1.1%.

It is necessary to minimize the mismatch of sintering shrinkage between dielectric ceramic and Ni inner electrode layers for the purpose of developing the ultra high-capacity multi layered ceramic condenser(MLCC). Thus, low temperature sintering of dielectric $BaTiO_3$ ceramic should be precedently investigated. In this work, the influence of the milling condition on sintering behavior and electrical properties of $BaTiO_3$ ceramics was investigated in the $BaTiO_3$(BT)-Mg-Dy-Mn-Ba system with borosilicate glass as a sintering agent. As milling time increased, specific surface area(SSA) of the powder increased linearly, while both sinterability and dielectric property were found to be drastically decreased with an increasing SSA. It was also revealed that the sinterability of the excessively milled $BaTiO_3$ ceramics could be recovered by increasing Ba content, rather than increasing glass addition. These results suggest that the sintering behavior of $BaTiO_3$ ceramics under the high SSA was more strongly dependent on the transient liquid phase caused by Ba addition, than the liquid phase from additional glass.

An ultra-high temperature ceramic, tantalum carbide, has received much attention for its favorable characteristics: a superior melting point and chemical compatibility with carbon and other carbides. One drawback is the high temperature erosion of carbon/carbon (C/C) composites. To address this drawback, we deposited TaC on C/C with silicon carbide as an intermediate layer. Prior to the TaC deposition, the $TaCl_5-C_3H_6-H_2$ system was thermodynamically analyzed with FactSage 6.2 and compared with the $TaCl_5-CH_4-H_2$ system. The results confirmed that the $TaCl_5-C_3H_6-H_2$ system had a more realistic cost and deposition efficiency than $TaCl_5-CH_4-H_2$. A dense and uniform TaC layer was successfully deposited under conditions of Ta/C = 0.5, $1200^{\circ}C$ and 100 torr. This study verified that the thermodynamic analysis is appropriate as a guide and prerequisite for carbide deposition.

Ultra high-resolution content, the file size is very large, therefore existing encoding techniques, it is not possible to transmit via the network. Efficient use of the network encoder HEVC corporation can be transferred. Compression requires a lot of time because it requires a distributed transcoding system. Distributed transcoding system is a distributed data store, and then encoded using a large number of nodes. The disadvantage of distributed transcoding system for distributed information is exposed or vulnerable to attack by internal managers. In this paper, when the super high definition content transcoding, distributed transcoding system does not guarantee the confidentiality of the problem to solve. We are using SNA, HEVC encoded content data encrypted using the secret distributing scheme was. Consequently, secure shared transcoding is possible, the internal administrator could prevent the attack.

The Ti-6Al-4V extra low interstitial (ELI) alloy has been widely used as an orthopedic implant material because of its excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, it still has many problems, including a high elastic modulus and toxicity of the Al and V elements. Therefore, non-toxic biomaterials with a low elastic modulus need to be developed. A high energy mechanical milling (HEMM) process is introduced to improve the effect of sintering. Rapid sintering of spark plasma sintering (SPS) under pressure was used to make an ultra fine grain of Ti-25 wt.%Nb-7 wt.%Zr-10 wt.%Mo-(10 wt.%CPP) composites with bio-attractive elements for increasing strength. These composites were fabricated by SPS at $1000^{\circ}C$ at 60 MPa using HEMM powders. During the sintering process, $CaTiO_3$, TixOy, and CaO were formed because of the reaction between Ti and CPP. The effects of CPP content on the physical and mechanical properties of the sintered Ti-Nb-Zr-Mo-CPP composites were investigated. The biocompatibility and corrosion resistance of the Ti-Nb-Zr-Mo alloys were improved by the addition of CPP.

Recently, Application of composite materials are increased in transport area for weight reduction. Also, Related technical developments have been implemented actively at domestic and abroad. In particular, The carbon fiber has high strength and ultra light property higher than stainless steel, aluminum, GFRP as Eco-friendly material. Carbon fiber contribute to improving the environmental effect such as fuel saving, expansion of loadage, reducing the exhaustion of carbon dioxide through the weight reduction of transport area. In addition, The carbon fiber is applied to the ship in the area of race yacht, luxury cruise boat as weight reduction and high added-value materials, but there is limited application for general boat because price of carbon fiber is very expensive. For the weight reduction of general boat hull, being used as structure materials, glass fiber and carbon fiber are applied to hull with form of hybrid composite materials, but application of domestic and research for development are incomlete. In this study, An evaluations of mechanical strength property and fatigue strength are performed on composite materials by hybrid weaving of glass fiber and carbon fiber and composite materials forming method by hybrid forming.

Total ankle replacement (TAR) is a visible option in the surgical treatment of degenerative or inflammatory diseases of ankle joint. it is attributed to the current TAR which has improvements in surgical technique, uncemented implant fixation and minimally constrained articulation. In the clinical result, they can show promised surgical result when compared to earlier attempts in TAR. However, TAR is still not as successful as total knee replacement (TKR) or total hip replacement (THR), it needs to be note that there are limitations in concerning of long term performance of TAR, the high failure rate still associated with wear of the PE (polyethylene) component that has related with their material property and surface roughness. The aim of this study was to introduce the tribology characteristics of total ankle joint prosthesis with one of TDR model which was fabricated to try multi-axis wear test as a region of motion in ankle joint. The wear specimen of TDR was prepared with Ti-6Al-4V alloy and UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) for tibia-talus and bearing component, respectively. A wear test was carried out using a Force 5 (AMTI, Massachusetts, US) wear simulator which can be allowed to move in three axis to flexion-extension ($+3^{\circ}{\sim}-6^{\circ}$), internal-external axial rotation (${\pm}5^{\circ}$), as well as sinusoidal compressive load (1.6 kN, R=10). All tests were performed following standard ISO 14243, wear rate was calculated with weight loss of UHMWPE bearing while the specimen has tested at certain cycles. As based on the preliminary results, wear rate of UHMWPE bearing was $7.9{\times}10^{-6}mg/cycles$ ($R^2=0.86$), calculated loss weight until $10^7cycles$ was 79 mg, respectively.

Background: The study of phenolic compounds profiles and antioxidative activity in ginseng fruit, leaves, and roots with respect to cultivation years, and has been little reported to date. Hence, this study examined the phenolic compounds profiles and 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free-radical-scavenging activities in the fruit, leaves, and roots of Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng Meyer) as a function of cultivation year. Methods: Profiling of 23 phenolic compounds in ginseng fruit, leaves, and roots was investigated using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with the external calibration method. Antioxidative activity of ginseng fruit, leaves, and roots were evaluated using the method of DPPH free-radical-scavenging activity. Results: The total phenol content in ginseng fruit and leaves was higher than in ginseng roots (p < 0.05), and the phenol content in the ginseng samples was significantly correlated to the DPPH free-radical-scavenging activity ($r=0.928^{****}$). In particular, p-coumaric acid ($r=0.847^{****}$) and ferulic acid ($r=0.742^{****}$) greatly affected the DPPH activity. Among the 23 phenolic compounds studied, phenolic acids were more abundant in ginseng fruit, leaves, and roots than the flavonoids and other compounds (p < 0.05). In particular, chlorogenic acid, gentisic acid, p- and m-coumaric acid, and rutin were the major phenolic compounds in 3e6-yr-old ginseng fruit, leaves, and roots. Conclusion: This study provides basic information about the antioxidative activity and phenolic compounds profiles in fruit, leaves, and roots of Korean ginseng with cultivation years. This information is potentially useful to ginseng growers and industries involved in the production of high-quality and nutritional ginseng products.
