This paper proposes SDINS(strapdown inertial navigation system) transfer alignment method for vertical launcher using an adaptive filter in the ship. First, the velocity and attitude matching transfer alignment method is designed to align SDINS for vertical launcher. Second, the adaptive filter is employed to estimate measurement noise variance in real time using the residual of measurements. Because it is difficult to decide measurement noise variance when noise properties of the ship SDINS are changed. To verify its performance, it is compared with the EKF(Extended Kalman filter) using uncorrect measurement variance. The monte carlo simulation results show that proposed method is more effective in estimating attitude angle than EKF.

The conventional biased vertical alignment (BVA) mode has several advantages such as rubbing- and protrusion-free, wide-viewing angle and stable LC dynamics against external pressure. However manufacturing process of BVA mode is difficult task because the pixel and bias electrode signal are different in each frame. To solve this problem, we investigated the pattern free vertical alignment (PFVA) by using the UV-curable reactive mesogen (RM), in which the LC molecules were made to be pre-tilted. Eventually transmittance and response time in PFVA mode were found to be improved as compared to BVA mode.

The tire uneven wear has been an ongoing concern for a long time, and one of customer's complaints too. This paper deals with uneven wear improvement of passenger car tires, to have tested the tire wear levels by each wheel alignment set (according to changing toe and camber) using taxis. The pre-set wheel alignments on test vehicle were gained by energy friction simulation of tire. The result of this experiment was as follows : First, verified the effects of initial wheel alignment (adjusted at Curb Vehicle Weight) to minimize tire uneven wear. Second, tire uneven wear makes tire life much shorter than even wear does.

We investigated new type non-robbing liquid crystal (LC) alignment techniques in the cell with slanted non-polarized ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on polyimide (Pl) film. It is shown that the uniform alignment for nematic (N) LC is obtained by using slanted non-polarized UV irradiation on Pl surface. We successfully obtained that the pretilt ang1e of NLC is generated about 3 degree in the LC cells by using slanted non-polarized UV irradiation with 70 degree on Pl surface. We consider that the pretilt angle generation for NLC is attributed to interaction between the LC molecular and the PI surface. We conclude that the uniform LC alignment is attributed to anisotropic dispersion force effect due to photo depolymerization of polymer on Pl surface.

Three types of polymer, a photoalignment material based N- (phenol)maleimide were synthesized and the liquid crystal (LC) aligning capabilities on the photopolymer layer were studied. A good LC alignment with UV exposure on the PMI5CA(N-(phenol)maleimide with 5-carbon chain cinnamoyl group) can be obtained. However, the LC alignment defects were observed on the PM13CA (N-(phenol)maleimide with 3-carbon chain cinnamoyl group) and PMIF (N-(phenyl)maleimide including fluoro cinnamoyl group). Also, the good LC alignment with UV exposure on the PM15CA surface was observed at until $150^{\circ}C$ of annealing temperature. The LC aligning ability on the photopolymer layer based N-(phenol)maleimide depends on the side chain length of photopolymer.

The electro-optical (EO) performances of a multidomain vertical-alignment (MVA) cell on a homeotropic photopolymer have been investigated. In the absence of an electric field, the MVA cell achieved black state as LC alignment is homeotropic. An electric field created by interdigitated electrodes and rib made after photolithograph using the photopolymer on both substrates causes a director deformation of a multidomain type. Good voltage-transmittance curves for a MVA cell on the homeotropic photopolymer were observed. Also, the stable response time of MVA cell on the homeotropic photopolymer can be achieved.

We studied homeotropic alignment effect for a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) on the $SiO_x$, thin film irradiated by the new ion beam method $SiO_x$ thin films were deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and were treated by the DuoPIGatron ion source. A uniform liquid crystal alignment effect was achieved over 2100 eV ion beam energy. Tilt angle were about $90^{\circ}$ and were not affected by various ion beam energy.

This paper describes a variant of the extended Gaussian image based registration algorithm for point clouds with surface color information. The method correlates the distributions of surface normals for rotational alignment and grid occupancy for translational alignment with hue filters applied during the construction of surface normal histograms and occupancy grids. In this method, the size of the point cloud is reduced with a hue-based down sampling that is independent of the point sample density or local geometry. Experimental results show that use of the hue filters increases the registration speed and improves the registration accuracy. Coarse rigid transformations determined in this step enable fine alignment with dense, unfiltered point clouds or using Iterative Common Point (ICP) alignment techniques.

Environmental differences across countries such as socio-cultural, political, economic, and technological differences require business strategies of multinational corporations to vary business practices across regions. Despite the keen awareness of the necessity for strategic adaptation to local context, IS management and strategy tend to remain similar across countries. One of the reasons is to maintain the stability and compatibility of information technology infrastructure. After a careful observation of retail business practice, this study finds IS strategy should also be highly responsive to the local context. This study shows how information resources including systems architecture, processes, human resources, and national context are interlinked together. Despite global excellence in general systems management, failure in such alignment can be a serious problem in extending competitive advantages across regions. This study aims to reveal issues to be taken care of in order to accomplish global technological alignment. Results of this study provide senior management with guidelines and a framework for aligning IT with regional strategic thrust that can improve local responsiveness of multinational companies.

We propose a patterning method of liquid crystal (LC) alignment layer for producing multi-domain LC structures. By controlling thermal conditions during micro-contact printing procedures and facilitating wetting properties of patterning materials, patterned LC orientation can be easily obtained on a bare ITO surface or other polymer films. The newly proposed patterning method is expected to be a very useful tool for fabricating multi-domain LC structures to enhance or design electro-optic properties of LC-based devices.
