A comprehensive study on seismic performance of wood frame building in hilly regions is presented. Specifically, seismic fragility assessment of a typical wood frame building at various locations of the northeast region of India are demonstrated. A three-dimensional simplified model of the wood frame building is developed with due consideration to nonlinear behaviour of shear walls under lateral loads. In doing so, a trilinear model having improved capability to capture the force-deformation behaviour of shear walls including the strength degradation at higher deformations is proposed. The improved capability of the proposed model to capture the force-deformation behaviour of shear wall is validated by comparing with the existing experimental results. The structural demand values are obtained from nonlinear time history analysis (NLTHA) of the three-dimensional wood frame model considering the effect of uncertainty due to record to record variation of ground motions and structural parameters as well. The ground motion bins necessary for NLTHA are prepared based on the identified hazard level from probabilistic seismic hazard analysis of the considered locations. The maximum likelihood estimates of the lognormal fragility parameters are obtained from the observed failure cases and the seismic fragilities corresponding to different locations are estimated accordingly. The results of the numerical study show that the wood frame constructions commonly found in the region are likely to suffer minor cracking or damage in the shear walls under the earthquake occurrence corresponding to the estimated seismic hazard level; however, poses negligible risk against complete collapse of such structures.

In this study, we investigate the predictability of intraseasonal monthly temperature and precipitation variations using hindcast datasets from eight global circulation models participating in the operational multi-model ensemble (MME) seasonal prediction system of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Climate Center for the 1983~2010 period. These intraseasonal monthly variations are defined by categorical deterministic analysis. The monthly temperature and precipitation are categorized into above normal (AN), near normal (NN), and below normal (BN) based on the σ-value ± 0.43 after standardization. The nine patterns of intraseasonal monthly variation are defined by considering the changing pattern of the monthly categories for the three consecutive months. A deterministic and a probabilistic analysis are used to define intraseasonal monthly variation for the multi-model consisting of numerous ensemble members. The results show that a pattern (pattern 7), which has the same monthly categories in three consecutive months, is the most frequently occurring pattern in observation regardless of the seasons and variables. Meanwhile, the patterns (e.g., patterns 8 and 9) that have consistently increasing or decreasing trends in three consecutive months, such as BN-NN-AN or AN-NN-BN, occur rarely in observation. The MME and eight individual models generally capture pattern 7 well but rarely capture patterns 8 and 9.

Longitudinal count data has been widely collected in biomedical research, public health, and clinical trials. These repeated measurements over time on the same subjects need to account for an appropriate dependency. The Poisson regression model is the first choice to model the expected count of interest, however, this may not be an appropriate when data exhibit over-dispersion or under-dispersion. Recently, Conway-Maxwell-Poisson (CMP) distribution is popularly used as the distribution offers a flexibility to capture a wide range of dispersion in the data. In this article, we propose a Bayesian CMP regression model to accommodate over and under-dispersion in modeling longitudinal count data. Specifically, we develop a regression model with random intercept and slope to capture subject heterogeneity and estimate covariate effects to be different across subjects. We implement a Bayesian computation via Hamiltonian MCMC (HMCMC) algorithm for posterior sampling. We then compute Bayesian model assessment measures for model comparison. Simulation studies are conducted to assess the accuracy and effectiveness of our methodology. The usefulness of the proposed methodology is demonstrated by a well-known example of epilepsy data.

본 논문에서는 주야간 움직임 감지 시스템 개발을 위한 주야간 촬영이 가능한 카메라 시스템을 구현하였다. 이를 위해 CMOS 이미지 센서는 물론 IR-LED를 이용하여 야간에도 선명한 영상 캡처가 가능하도록 설계하였다. 또한 칼라모델 분리를 통해 비교적 단순한 움직임 감지 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 칼라모델에서 H채널만 추출한 후, 영상을 블럭으로 나눈 다음 연속 프레임간의 평균 색상값을 이용하여 블록 매칭방식을 적용함으로써 움직임을 감지할 수 있다. 촬영 중 움직임이 감지되면 자동으로 경보음이 울리면서 화면을 캡처하여 PC에 저장할 수 있는 주야간 움직임 감지 시스템을 구현하였다.

The BVI(blade vortex interaction) noise Prediction has been one of the most challenging acoustic analyses in helicopter aeromechanical Phenomenon. It is well known high resolution airloads data with accurate tip vortex positions are necessary for the accurate prediction of this phenomenon. The truly unsteady time-marching free-wake method, which is able to capture the tip vortices instability in hover and axial flights, is expanded with the rotor flapping motion and trim routine to predict unsteady airloads in forward and descent flights. And Farassat formulation 1-A based on the FW-H equation is applied for the noise prediction considering the blade flapping motion. Main objective of this study is to validate the newly developed prediction code. To achieve the objective, the descent flight condition of AH-1 OLS(operational loads survey) configuration is analyzed using present code. The predicted sectional thrust distribution and sectional airloads time histories show the present scheme is able to capture well the unsteady airloads caused by a parallel BVI. Finally, the predicted noise data, observed in two different positions where are 3.44 times of rotor radius far from the hub center, are quite reasonable agreements with the experimental data compared to the other analysis results.

모션 캡쳐 장비는 사람의 자연스러운 행동이나 동작 정보를 정밀하게 얻기 위해 널리 이용되며, 영화나 게임과 같은 콘텐츠 제작 시에 자주 활용된다. 하지만 모션 캡쳐 장비가 고가이고 이용하기 불편하기 때문에 대부분의 경우 한번 입력받은 데이타를 모션별로 분할하고 상황에 맞게 재결합하여 이용하며, 입력 데이타를 모션별로 분할하는 작업은 대부분 수동으로 이루어진다. 이 때문에 캡쳐된 모션 데이타를 자동으로 분할하기 위한 연구들이 최근 다양하게 시도되고 있다. 기존의 연구들은 크게 각 프레임의 전역적 특징을 고려하는 오프라인 방법과 이웃하는 프레임 사이의 유사도를 고려하는 온라인 방법으로 나누어진다. 본 논문에서는 온라인과 오프라인 방법을 통합한 그래프 기반의 하이레벨 모션 분할 방법을 제안한다. 하이레벨 모션은 모션 내에서 반복되는 프레임을 포함하는 특징을 가지고 있다. 우리는 이 특징을 기반으로 이웃하는 프레임뿐만 아니라 일정시간내의 모든 프레임 사이의 유사도를 고려하는 그래프를 생성하며, 그래프의 정점(vertex)에는 프레임 정보를 간선(edge)의 가중치는 두 프레임 사이의 유사도를 반영한다. 그래프를 분할하기 위해 분할된 간선의 가중치를 전역적으로 최소화할 수 있는 normalized cuts을 이용하며, 분할된 정점의 집합은 하이레벨 모션을 의미한다. 결과적으로 제안된 방법은 이웃하는 프레임뿐만 아니라 일정시간내의 모든 프레임 사이의 유사도를 반영하는 그래프를 전역적으로 최소화함으로써 온라인과 오프라인 방법을 동시에 고려할 수 있으며, 실험에서 제안된 방법은 기존의 오프라인 방법 중 하나인 GMM과 온라인 방법 중 하나인 PEA를 이용한 방법보다 좋은 결과를 보였다

Purpose: Porcine proliferative enteropathy(PPE), caused by the obligate intracellular bacterium Lawsonia intracellularis, is a widely distributed disease throughout the world causing substantial economic loss. The bacterial pathogen invades the intestinal epithelial cells which causes hyperplasia of the infected cells and leads to the process of disease pathogenesis. For diagnosing PPE in a pig farm in earlier stage, a rapid diagnosing test equipment is needed for farmers. To test the equipment appropriately, we prepare the samples and antibodies for rapid detecting the Lawsonia intracellularis in pig feces. Methods : To prepare the PPE infected samples, we sampled PPE suspected pig feces in a pig farm. To manufacture a anti-Lawsonia intracellularis antibody for capturing the Lawsonia intracellularis, the rabbit-anti LsaA synthetic peptide polyclonal antibody was inoculated to rabbits. To select the couple of antibodies which is most well sandwiched with the bacteria, ELISA test was done with PPE infected ileum samples. Finally, to verify the PPE infected feces which would be used to test the rapid kit, PCR test was done on the sampled PPE suspected feces Results : The rabbit-anti LsaA synthetic peptide polyclonal antibody is developed, and is verified to capture the bacterial well through the fluorescence antibody test. Also, we found that the monoclonal antibody and the polyclonal antibody could be used as couples for sandwiching the bacteria. Finally, through the PCR test for samples of pig feces, we could prepare the 150 PPE positive samples and 50 PPE negative samples. Conclusions : The manufactured polyclonal antibody and the imported monoclonal antibody could be used to capture the bacteria using the sandwich techniques. Also, the prepared PPE infected negative and positive samples could be used to test the performance of the rapid kit to capture the bacterium Lawsonia intracellularis.

Parameter estimation for the probability model of wavelet coefficients is essential to the wavelet-domain interpolation. However, phase uncertainty, one well-known drawback of the orthogonal wavelet transforms, make it difficult to estimate parameters. In this paper, we exploit a phase shifting matrix in order to improve the accuracy of estimation. Nonlinear modeling to capture the interscale characteristics is also described. The experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms the previous wavelet-domain interpolation method as well as the conventional bicubic method.

We present a multi-stage Roe-type numerical scheme for a model of two-phase flows arisen from the modeling of deflagration-to-detonation transition in granular materials. The first stage in the construction of the scheme computes the volume fraction at every time step. The second stage deals with the nonconservative terms in the governing equations which produces states on both side of the contact wave at each node. In the third stage, a Roe matrix for the two-phase is used to apply on the states obtained from the second stage. This scheme is shown to capture stationary waves and preserves the positivity of the volume fractions. Finally, we present numerical tests which all indicate that the proposed scheme can give very good approximations to the exact solution.
