  • In order to implement morphological filters on image processing systems, the size of structuring element must be small due to the architectural constraints of the systems, which requires the decomposition of structuring element into small elements for the filters with large structuring elements. In this paper, an algorithm for decomposition of structuring element with no restriction on the shape and size is developed which enables sub-optimal implementation of any morphological filter on 3X3 pipeline machine. The given structuring element is first decomposed into the union of elements using sequential search procedure, then each element is further decomposed optimally into 3X3 elements, resulting in final sub-optimal 3$\times$3 hybrid decomposition. The proposed algorithm is applied to some structuring elements and the results close to the optimum are obtained.

  • The focal spot of electron beam depending on the anode angle in the structure and major parts of the X-ray tube was investigated by the OPERA-3D/SCALAR simulation program. The simulation worked on four spaces with with two spaces, including anode and cathode of X-ray tube, by applying the finite element method analysis. The analytical model and dimension for the emission orbit of thermal electrons made from one filament of the focused X-ray cathode is affected to the penumbra of detector for the X-ray depending on any real focal spot size. The model shape of focusing cap and focusing tube with an anode target angle and a cathode filament is analyzed by the current density distribution of thermal electrons. The focusing width of thermal electrons for the X-ray tube depended on the anode angle (${\theta}$). The focusing value of electron beams at a region of anode angle having $10^{\circ}{\sim}17^{\circ}$ maintained to below value of $70{\mu}m$. The minimum focal size of the electron beam was $40{\mu}m$ at an anode angle of $15^{\circ}$. The focused X-ray tube of many variables depended on the thermionic emission of hot electrons from the target trajectory. The focusing tube will contribute to the real design of X-ray for the development of future diagnosis medical device.

  • Absorption spectra of biological specimens in the soft X-ray region have been presented with special reference to the XANES (X-ray absorption Near Edge Structure) of constituent elements. Absorption spectrum in this wavelength region is characterized by the absorption edges from which elemental content could be derived. In addition, XANES has a characteristic profile for chemical environment around the element such as chemical bond. Using the specific absorption peak we can assign not only the chemical bond but also molecules having such a chemical bond. In the present paper, absorption spectrum of DNA was measured in the wavelength range from 1.5nm to 5nm. Spectrum of Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells was compared with the DNA spectrum. XANES were distinct at the K absorption edges of major elements, C, N and O. In the spectrum of the cells prominent peaks at the L absorption edge of minor element Ca were also detectable. XANES profiles in small local areas in a cell could also be measured in combination with X-ray microscopy. These give information about local chemical environment in a cell. XANES at the phosphorus K absorption edge in a human HeLa cell was successfully obtained corresponding to a sharp and intensive XANES peak of DNA.

  • Let G be a group and $\mathbb{C}$ the field of complex numbers. Suppose ${\sigma}:G{\rightarrow}G$ is an endomorphism satisfying ${{\sigma}}({{\sigma}}(x))=x$ for all x in G. In this paper, we first determine the central solution, f : G or $G{\times}G{\rightarrow}\mathbb{C}$, of the functional equation $f(xy)+f({\sigma}(y)x)=2f(x)+2f(y)$ for all $x,y{\in}G$, which is a variant of the quadratic functional equation. Using the central solution of this functional equation, we determine the general solution of the functional equation f(pr, qs) + f(sp, rq) = 2f(p, q) + 2f(r, s) for all $p,q,r,s{\in}G$, which is a variant of the equation f(pr, qs) + f(ps, qr) = 2f(p, q) + 2f(r, s) studied by Chung, Kannappan, Ng and Sahoo in [3] (see also [16]). Finally, we determine the solutions of this equation on the free groups generated by one element, the cyclic groups of order m, the symmetric groups of order m, and the dihedral groups of order 2m for $m{\geq}2$.

  • Bulk amorphous alloys with reasonable glass forming ability and large plasticity were found in Zr-Cu-Al alloys. Further increase in the GFA and the ductility is expected by appropriately choosing a fourth element. In this study, we select Be as the fourth element and added to the Zr-Cu-Al system to synthesize $(Zr_{57.4}Cu_{38.1}Al_{4.5})_{100-x}Be_x$(x=0~16) alloys and the glass forming ability and the plasticity were measured. With Be addition, the supercooled liquid region (${\Delta}T_x$), the plasticity and GFA as high as $134^{\circ}C$, 20.5%, 7 mm, respectively, can be obtained. Herein, we present the effect of Be addition on the variations of various mechanical properties and thermal characteristics of the $(Zr_{57.4}Cu_{38.1}Al_{4.5})_{100-x}Be_x$ alloys.

  • SIMS is an indispensable surface analysis instrument in trace element depth profiling because of high detection sensitivity and excellent depth resolution, however, it requires a standard sample to do quantitative analysis due to matrix effect depending on the species of impurities and sample matricies and on the sputtering rates. Among the SNMS technology developed to supply the deficiency, we researched into CsX+ SNMS which improved the result quantitatively without any extra epuipments. So basic SNMS functions were confirmed through matrix element composition rate analysis using Siq layer etc., and adaptability to trace element concentration alaysis was tried. For that purpose we compared SIMS depth profile data for Boron which presented strong matrix effect on account of Fluorin existence after BF2 ion implantation on silicon substrate with SNMS data. Also detection limit and dynamic range were investigated. After these experements we concluded that CsX+ SNMS reduced matrix effect and we could apply it to profile impurity elements.
