  • Threshold limit value (TLV) test between expert and consumer panel was conducted about absolute, recognition and difference threshold respectively. And we tried to suggest appropriate and minimum acceptable menthol concentration level by consumer panel. Determination of threshold value was based on ASTM E 679-79 method by forced-choice ascending concentration series. In addition, a semi-ascending paired difference method was referred to conduct test. The group threshold value was determined as the value of geometric mean individual threshold. The smokers were dividend by two groups, trained and consumer panel. Trained panel was selected according to sensitivity to menthol discrimination. Consumer panel wasrecruited in proportion as population ratios including female smokers. They were all over twenty years old volunteers and summed up thirty four persons. In terms of sensor evaluation, overall difference test with seven-category scale by both trained and consumer panelists were done. On judging correct or incorrect answer, two by three cut-off levels applied to. Every test was conducted with two sessions, before smoking and during smoking period. And, only two samples served each paneI per test with regard to sensory fatigue and reliable results. All tests were replicated, and in total 32 times per panelist. In conclusion, the recognition threshold about consumer and expert panel was 358 ppm/cig. and 276 ppm/cig. in separately. Besides, absolute and difference thresholds were obtained also. And, we conduct difference threshold test with two different ways, upward and downward. And, The results of each method were 246, 195 ppm/cig., 1414, 1336 ppm/cig. and 1047, 972 ppm/cig.

  • This paper is concerned with an experimental research to control of random vibration caused by external loads specially in cable-stayed bridges which tend to be structurally flexible. For the vibration control, we produced a model structure modelled on Seohae Grand Bridge, and we designed a shear type MR damper. On the center of its middle span, we placed a shear type MR damper which was to control its vibration and also acquire its structural responses such as displacement and acceleration at the same site. The experiments concerning controlling vibration were performed according to a variety of theories including un-control, passive on/off control, and clipped-optimal control. Its control performance was evaluated in terms of the absolute maximum displacements, RMS displacements, the absolute maximum accelerations, RMS accelerations, and the total power required to control the bridge which differ from each different experiment method. Among all the methods applied in this paper, clipped-optimal control method turned out to be the most effective to reduces of displacements, accelerations, and external power. Finally, It is proven that the clipped-optimal control method was effective and useful in the vibration control employing a semi-active devices such MR damper.

  • 본 논문에서는 동영상의 화질을 일정하게 하기 위한 실시간 비트율 제어 기법을 제안한다. 일정 화질을 만족하기 위한 기존의 비트율 제어 알고리즘은 프레임의 부호화 복잡도를 잔여 신호인 MAD(mean absolute of difference)로 추정하여 비트 할당을 수행하였다. 그러나 MAD는 영상의 특성이나 부호화 파라미터에 따라 동일한 MAD라도 다른 비트를 생성하므로 영상의 부호화 복잡도를 적절히 나타내기 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 비트와 MAD사이의 기울기인 모델 파라미터를 프레임의 복잡도의 측도로 보고 이전 프레임과 현재 프레임의 모델 파라미터의 비율로 비트 할당을 수행한다. 또한 기존의 비트-복잡도 모델에서 구한 모델 파라미터는 양자화 파라미터가 변함에 따라 그 값이 크게 변하여 영상의 내재적 복잡도를 나타내기 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 비트-복잡도 모델에 양자화 파라미터를 추가하여 양자화 파라미터가 변하더라도 영상의 복잡도의 측도인 모델 파라미터는 변하지 않게 하였다. 광범위한 실험결과는 제안한 알고리즘이 기존의 알고리즘에 비해 비슷한 평균 화질을 유지하면서 화질의 변동을 큰 폭으로 줄였음을 보여준다.

  • 본 논문에서는 ATSC DTV 수신기를 위한 준 최적화된 판정 궤환 등화기 (decision feedback equalizer; DFE)를 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 DFE는 TBD (Trellis Back Depth)가 1인 변형된 트렐리스 복호기 (modified trellis decoder; MTD)를 판정 장치로 사용함으로써 낮은 복잡도를 가질 뿐만 아니라 에러 전파가 없는 최적화된 DFE에 근접하는 성능을 보인다. MTD는 branch metric의 계산을 위해 ED (Euclidean Distance)의 자승 대신 AD (Absolute Distance)를 사용하기 때문에 낮은 복잡도를 가진다. 또한, 일반적으로 사용되는 판정 장치인 양자화기(slicer)에 비해 매우 낮은 판정 에러 확률을 가지며, ED를 사용하는 트렐리스 복호기 (trellis decoder: TD)와 비슷한 성능을 가진다. 판정 장치에서의 낮은 에러 확률은 수렴 속도와 잔류 에러 측면에서 우수한 수렴 성능을 야기시키며, 전산 실험을 통해 MTD를 가지는 블라인드 DFE의 성능을 검증한다.

  • We evaluated the performance of various detectors for small-field dosimetry with field sizes defined by a high-definition (HD) multileaf collimator (MLC) system. For small-field dosimetry, diodes referred to as "RAZOR detectors," MOSFET detectors, and Gafchromic EBT3 films were used in this study. For field sizes less than $1{\times}1cm^2$, percent depth doses (PDDs) and lateral profiles were measured by diodes, MOSFET detectors, and films, and absolute dosimetry measurements were conducted with MOSFET detectors. For comparison purposes, the same measurements were carried out with a field size of $10{\times}10cm^2$. The dose distributions were calculated by the treatment planning system Eclipse. A comparison of the measurements with calculations yielded the percentage differences. With field sizes less than $1{\times}1cm^2$, it was shown that most of the percentage difference values were within 5% for 6-MV and 15-MV photon beams with the use of diodes. The measured lateral profiles were well matched with those calculated by Eclipse as the field sizes increased. Except for the depths of 0.5 cm and 20 cm, there was agreement in terms of the absolute dosimetry within 10% when MOSFET detectors were used. There was good agreement between the calculations and measurements conducted using diodes and EBT films. Both diode detectors and EBT3 films were found to be appropriate options for relative measurements of PDDs and for lateral profiles.

  • '연결'과 '지식'은 사물인터넷의 주요 키워드이다. 본 논문에서 기독교와 이슬람이라는 두 문명이 무갈 회화를 매개체로 하여 어떤 방식으로 연결되었고, 지식의 전파를 낳았는지 무갈회화를 중심으로 분석하였다. 이를 위해 당시 문헌과 그림들을 비교 분석하였다. 서양 회화는 주제적 측면에서, 기독교 이미지와 상징은 무갈 황제의 왕권을 강화하는 수단으로 이용되었다. 양식적 측면에서, 서양 르네상스 시대 원근법과 명암법 등이 무갈 회화에 사용되기 시작하였다. 서양 기법의 단순한 활용에서 시작된 융합은 후에 서양 기독교 아이콘이나 상징을 무갈 회화에 채용하기 시작했다. 나중에는 기독교 상징이나 주제를 절대 권력 왕권과 연결시켰고, 이를 더 활용하여 왕권=영성=신성의 개념으로 발전시켜 세계회화사에 유래없는 독창적인 예술 양식을 창조했다. 사물인터넷에서 '연결'과 '지식'이라는 측면에서 이질적인 두 문화의 연결과 지식을 분석해 봄으로써 이 연구가 향후 사물인터넷에 대한 인문학 연구를 위한 하나의 플랫폼의 역할을 할 수 있을 것이다.

  • In a fiercely competitive environment, quality is a key factor that enables dashboard camera makers to maintain their competitive advantage. Quality affects consumer satisfaction, brand loyalty, and firm performance. Therefore, to remain competitive, it is important that manufacturers maintain product quality that meets consumer expectations. To this end, it is necessary to investigate customer preferences and product performance in terms of product quality and to properly allocate resources to improve the quality level such that the firm can maintain a competitive advantage. In this paper, we proposed the various ways in which manufacturing firms can determine which quality dimensions need improvement in order to secure competitiveness. To this end, we analyzed a case study of Urive to develop a quality improvement strategy through importance performance competitor analysis (IPCA). Urive's IPCA results showed that 14 quality dimensions, namely performance, size, price, ease of use, country of origin, manufacturer, brand, product certificate, warranty, distribution channel, market share, reliability, durability, and conformance, were not absolutely competitive compared with those of Mando, Inavi, and Finevu. In terms of color, Urive had an absolute competitive advantage over Mando, but not Inavi and Finevu. Urive's appearance was more competitive than Mando's, but not Inavi's and Finevu's. In terms of advertisement and serviceability, Urive was absolutely less competitive than Mando and Inavi, but had a competitive advantage over Finevu. Therefore, it is necessary to put resources and time as the first priority for performance, reliability, and durability, which have a large performance difference in common among the three brands. The quality dimensions in which resources and time need to be put in second place are price and ease of use, which have a large performance difference in common among the two brands.

  • The purpose of this study is to look into the support activities of the 17th century spanish plays which had been taken in various paths in terms of responses of the then-public who had been enthusiastic about great plays and artworks. Such a phenomenon clearly appeared in the open-air theater 'corral' where 'Teatro nacional' was performed at that time. Therefore, this study tries to investigate the functional relation between the public's responses and the prosperity of then-plays from the concrete standpoint of Lope's public-oriented plays. Although Lope's plays basically include system-protection ideology, they are thoroughly based on the public's support and popularity. In short, at that time, Lope's dramatic reform and entailing remarkable hit and success were made possible through thorough compliance with the public's preference and thereby the public's absolute support and affection. The tendency of his public-oriented plays appears in two aspects. One is the common people persecuted and punishment of a wicked man of power. The typical plays in point are Lope's Perib??ez y el comendador de Oca?a and El mejor alcalde, el rey. Through the plays, the playwright Lope not only implemented praise of absolute monarch very effectively, but soothed the wounded heart of the common people who had suffered pains due to their unfair and lowly social status. In this way, his plays might give senses of reliefs and satisfaction to most viewers who identified with the common people in the plays. The other one is the decisive raise of status of an exemplary commoner, the subject matter which had been used by Lope as one of useful means to show the public-oriented tendency of his plays. The cases in point are Los Tellos de Meneses and its succeeding work Valor, fortuna y lealtad. The two-part work of Lope is about the hard journey, ups and downs, and ascent to the nobility of Tello, an exemplary and rich farmer, and hits young son Tello. Through the two-part play, Lope demonstrated how an exemplary and good-mannered commoner rose to the nobility and thereby gave vicarious satisfaction to the then-public and received a lot of praise from them. As mentioned earlier, through his public-oriented plays, Lope not only satisfied the public's desires and achieved his realistic goal of big success. Not all Lope's plays are public-oriented. Nevertheless, the popular success of 'Teatro nacional' made by Lope and his followers is based on the public's preference and the plays' dramatic responses to their desires, and the strategic elaboration to comfort the public suffering lot of pains in daily life.
