In this study, different calibration approaches for reduced sulfur compounds (RSCs) were investigated by using thermal desorption coupled with gas chromatography (GC) and pulsed flame photometric detection (PFPD). To evaluate the effects of calibration procedures, gaseous standards of 4 RSCs ($H_2S$, $CH_3SH$, DMS, and DMDS) prepared at 10 ppm level were analyzed at 7 loading injection volumes (40, 60, 80, 100, 160, 240, and 320 ${\mu}L$). The results were then compared with calibration curves made with the Z (zero offset) and N (non-zero offset) method. The concentrations of unknown samples were then quantified by using R (ratio) method in which the slope values are compared between standards and samples. Secondly, in A (average) method, results obtained from a multi-point analysis of unknown samples were also averaged to extract representative values for each sample. Results of both experiments showed that analytical error of low molecular weight components (such as $H_2S$ and $CH_3SH$) was greatly expanded with the Z method. In conclusion, the combined application of N-A method was the more realistic approach to reduce biases in the quantification of RSCs.

This study deals with the maximum thermal load analysis and optimal capacity determination method of tank culture system for applying seawater source heat pump to save energy and realize zero energy. The location of the fish farm was divided into four sea areas, and the heat load in summer and winter was analyzed, respectively. In addition, two representative methods, the flow-through aquaculture system and the recirculation aquaculture system were reviewed as water treatment methods for fish farms. In addition, the concept of the exchange rate was introduced to obtain the maximum heat load of the fish farms. Finally, power consumption for heat pumps was analyzed in the view point of sea areas, tank capacity, and exchange rate based on the calculated maximum thermal load.

In this paper, a new approach for continuous digits recognition using the Spatio-Temporal Neural Network (STNN) is reported. The continuous seven digits are gargeted to recognize, and our initial recognition rate was 28%. In this paper, to increase the recognition rate, two methods are proposed. In the first method, to compensated the STNN's own defect as well as to emphasize the Korean digits' phonic characteristics, the starting point ofeach digit is detected using the energy and zero-crossing rate, but the ending point is detectedonly using the energy value. In this case, the seven digits recognition reate increased to 61%. Furthermore, in the second method, considering the fact that a same digit could be pronounced differently in continuously spoken environment, the number of STNNs used to represent each digit is increased from one to five. Consequently, the same digit but pronounced differently could be handled well in the new system. As a result of that, the continuously spoken seven digits recognition rate increased to 89%.

The geometrical parameters, vibrational frequencies, and binding energies for $(H_2O_3)_n$ (n = 1-5) have been investigated using various quantum mechanical techniques. The possible structures of the clusters (n = 2-5) are fully optimized and the binding energies are predicted using energy differences at each optimized geometry. The harmonic vibrational frequencies are also determined and zero-point vibrational energies (ZPVEs) are considered for the better prediction of the binding energy. The best estimation of the binding energy for the dimer is 8.65 kcal/mol. For n = 2 and 3, linear structures with all trans forms of the HOOOH monomers are predicted to be the lowest conformations in energy, while the cyclic structures with all cis-HOOOH monomers are preferable structures for n = 4 and 5.

Troubles are often met when traditional active contours extract boundaries of medical images with inhomogeneous bias and various noises. Focusing on such a circumstance, a localized mutual information active contour model is discussed in the paper. By defining neighborhood of each point on the level set, mutual information is introduced to describe the relationship between the zero level set and image field. A driving energy term is then generated by integrating all the information. In addition, an expanding energy and internal energy are designed to regularize the driving energy. Contrary to piecewise constant model, new model has a better command of driving the contours without initialization.

벤젠이온-물 복합체[$C_6H_6^+-(H_2O)_n$(n=1-5)]의 여러 가능한 구조를 예측하고 다양한 양자역학적 이론 수준(ab initio, DFT 등)에서 분자구조를 최적화 하였으며, 조화 진동주파수를 계산하여 IR 스펙트럼을 예측하였다. $C_6H_6^+-(H_2O)$에 대하여 보다 정확한 결합에너지를 구하기 위하여 MP2 수준에서 분자구조를 최적화하여 결합에너지 계산을 하여 B3LYP 계산 결과와 비교하였으며, 영점 진동에너지(zero-point vibrational energy)를 보정하여 실험값과 비교하였다. $C_6H_6^+-(H_2O)$에 대한 결합에너지는 MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ 이론수준에서 8.6 kcal/mol로 계산되어 최근의 실험결과($8.5{\pm}1$ kcal/mol)와 매우 잘 일치하는 것으로 나타났다.

이 논문에서는 인간 청각 시스템에 기반한 모음 개시 지점 (VOP) 탐지 방법을 제시하였다. 이 방법을 통해 '지각의' 주파수 범위, 즉 선형 음향 주파수에서의 Mel Scale을 보여준 후 일련의 삼각 Mel-weighted Filter Bank를 만들어 인간의 청각 시스템에서 대역 필터링 기능을 시뮬레이션하였다. 이러한 비선형 임계 대역 Filter Bank는 데이터 차원수를 크게 감소시키고 비선형적으로 간격을 둔 Mel 스펙트럼에서 더욱 효과적으로 포먼트를 생성하기 위해 조파들의 영향을 제거해준다. Mel 스펙트럼의 첨두 에너지 합은 각 프레임의 특징으로 추출하고 에너지 진폭이 급격히 상승하기 시작할 때의 특성은 Gabor 윈도우를 사용하여 VOP로 탐지한다. 실험 결과를 통해서 다른 종류의 자음들과 연결된 12개의 모음들을 포함하는 한 단어 데이터베이스에 대한 제안된 방법의 평균 정확도는 단시간 에너지와 zero-crossing 비율에 기반을 둔 다른 모음 탐지 방법들보다 높은 72.73% 이상임을 확인하였다.

Based on the space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) theory, this paper realizes an easier SVPWM strategy, which is equivalently implemented by CBSPWM with zero-sequence voltage injection. The traditional SVPWM strategy has no effect on controlling the neutral-point voltage balance. In order to solve the neutral-point voltage unbalance problem for neutral-point-clamped (NPC) three-level inverters, this paper proposes a neutral-point voltage balance controller. The proposed controller realizes controlling the neutral-point voltage balance by dynamically calculating the offset superimposed to the three-phase modulation waves of an equivalent SVPWM strategy. Compared with the traditional SVPWM strategy, the proposed neutral-point voltage balance controller has a strong ability to balance the neutral-point voltage, has good steady-state performance, improves the output waveforms quality and is easy for digital implementation. An experiment has been carried out on a NPC three-level inverter prototype based on a digital signal processor-complex programmable logic device (DSP-CPLD). The obtained experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed neutral-point voltage balance controller.

An experimental study of heat transfer characteristics near the critical pressure has been performed with an internally-heated vertical annular channel cooled by R-134a fluid. Two series of tests have been completed: (a) steady-state critical heat flux (CHF) tests, and (b) heat transfer tests for pressure reduction transients through the critical pressure. In the present experimental range, the steady-state CHF decreases with increase of the system pressure for fixed inlet mass flux and subcooling. The CHF falls sharply at about 3.8 MPa and shows a trend towards converging to zero as the pressure approaches the critical point of 4.059 MPa. The CHF phenomenon near the critical pressure does not lead to an abrupt temperature rise of the heated wall, because the CHF occurs at remarkably low power levels. In the pressure reduction transients, as soon as the pressure passes below the critical pressure from the supercritical pressure, the wall temperatures rise rapidly up to very high values due to the departure from nucleate boiling. The wall temperature reaches a maximum at the saturation point of the outlet temperature, and then tends to decrease gradually.

기존의 레이저통신용 스위칭 방식은 변압기 2차측에 정류부 및 평활용 콘덴서가 필수적으로 포함되어 있으며, 이렇게 얻어진 직류전압의 후단부를 스위칭 하게 되므로 시스템장치가 복잡하다. 또한 스위칭에 의한 손실이 크고, 펄스반복율(pulse repetition rate)이 증가할수록 콘덴서에 저장된 에너지가 램프로 충분히 전달되지 못하여 레이저 출력 효율이 저감되는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 스위칭에 의한 손실을 줄여 레이저의 출력 효율을 개선하고자 교류전압의 영점(ZERO)을 ZCC(zero cross control)방식으로 검출하여 변압기 2차측 교류전압의 영점에서 SCR을 턴-온(turn-on)시키는 레이저 시스템을 설계 및 제작하였다. 그 결과 기존의 평활용 콘덴서와 정류부를 사용한 레이저 시스템보다 펄스반복울이 10[pps]씩 증가할수록 레이저 출력 효율 약 3.5$\%$씩 증가하여 60pps에서는 약 25$\%$까지 상승하였다.
