Limit cycle oscillations of a two-dimensional airfoil with quadratic and cubic pitching nonlinearities are investigated. The equivalent stiffness of the pitching stiffness is obtained by combining the linearization and harmonic balance method. With the equivalent stiffness, the equivalent linearization method for nonlinear flutter analysis is generalized to address aeroelastic system with quadratic nonlinearity. Numerical example shows that good approximation of the limit cycle can be obtained by the generalized method. Furthermore, the proposed method is capable of revealing the unsymmetry of the limit cycle; however the ordinary equivalent linearization method fails to do so.

We investigate some numerical methods for computing approximate solutions of a system of second order boundary value problems associated with obstacle unilateral and contact problems. We show that cubic spline method gives approximations which are better than that computed by higer order spline and finite difference techniques.

This paper designs an interpolator for a high speed ultra wide bandwidth (UWB). The UWB wireless technology will play a key role in short-range wireless connectivity supporting very high bit rates availability, low power consumption, and location capabilities. Because the UWB needs high operating speed, a cubic interpolator based on variable parameters for the UWB needs to be operated at a high speed. In order to improve an operating speed, the modified cubic interpolator is based on both a parallel processing and a pipelining in the existing interpolator simultaneously. Experimental results show that a maximum operating speed and period of the proposed interpolator using Stratix II EP2S60F1020C3 is 102.42MHz and 9.764ns, respectively. Compared to the conventional interpolator, the designed cubic parameter interpolator has been improved more than about 190%.

Moving objects are spatiotemporal data that change their location or shape continuously over time. Their location coordinates are periodically measured and stored i3l the application systems. The linear function is mainly used to estimate the location information that is not in the system at the query time point. However, a new method is needed to improve uncertainties of the location representation, because the location estimation by linear function induces the estimation error. This paper proposes an application method of the cubic spline interpolation in order to reduce deviation of the location estimation by linear function. First, we define location information of the moving object on the two-dimensional space. Next, we apply the cubic spline interpolation to location estimation of the proposed data model and describe algorithm of the estimation operation. Finally, the precision of this estimation operation model is experimented. The experimentation comes out more accurate results than the method by linear function.

In this paper, dynamic analysis of a nonlinear active vibration absorber is conducted with a time delay acceleration feedback to suppress the vibration of a nonlinear single degree of freedom primary system. The primary system consisting of linear and nonlinear cubic springs, mass, and damper is subjected to the multi-harmonic hard excitation with a parametric excitation. It is proposed to reduce the vibration of the primary system and the absorber by using a lead zirconate titanate (PZT) stack actuator in series with a spring in the absorber which configures as an active vibration absorber. The method of multiple scales (MMS) is used to obtain the approximate solution of the system under the internal resonance, subharmonic, superharmonic, and principal parametric resonance conditions simultaneously. Frequency and time responses of the system are investigated considering a delay in the feedback for the various parameters of the absorber configuration and controlling force.

Followed by that HTML5(Hypertext Markup Language5) was introduced, many kinds of program and services based on this have been developed and released. HTML5 is technical standard specifications for cross platform for personal computers and mobile devices so that it is expected that continuing progress and wide application in the both sides of the academic and the industrial fields increase. This study is to design and implement a mobile application program for overlay rendering with DEM and other geo-based image sets using HTML5 WebGL for 3D graphic processing on web environment. Particularly, the blending technique was used for overlay processing with multiple images. Among available WebGL frameworks, CubicVR.js was adopted, and various blending techniques were provided in the user interface for general users. For the actual application in the study area around the Sejong city, serveral types of geo-based data sets were used and processed: KOMPSAT-2 images, ALOS PALSAR SAR images, and grid data by environment measurements. While, DEM for 3D viewing with these geo-based images was produced using contour information of the digital map sets. This work demonstrates possibilities that new types of contents and service system using geo-based images can be extracted and applied.

This paper proposes an electronic colon cleansing method using a patient CT profile for a virtual colonoscopy. The proposed method extracts the colon using cubic seeded region growing, and removes tagged materials adjacent to the colon. Residuals produced by a partial volume effect at the boundary of air-tagged material are deleted, and the removed soft tissue pixels due to a partial volume effect at the boundary of tagged material-soft tissue are recovered using a patient CT profile. The proposed method was applied to 16 virtual colonoscopy patient data sets, and produced promising results by a subjective evaluation of a radiologist and by a quantitative evaluation of a computer-aided diagnosis system.

This paper describes the optimal home positioning algorithm of Eclipse-II, a new conceptual parallel mechanism for motion simulator. Eclipse-II is capable of translation and 360 degrees continuous rotation in all directions. In unexpected situations such as emergency stop, riders have to be resituated as soon as possible through a shortest translational and rotational path because the return paths are not unique in view of inverse kinematic solution. Eclipse-II is man riding. Therefore, the home positioning is directly related to the safety of riders. To ensure a least elapsed time, ZYX Euler angle inverse kinematics is applied to find an optimal home orientation. In addition, the subsequent decrease of maximum acceleration and jerk values is achieved by combining the optimal return path function with cubic spline, which consequently reduces delivery force and vibration to riders.

Traditionally, electrical power systems had the vertically-integrated industry structures based on the economics of scale. However power systems have been recently reformed to increase the energy efficiency of the power system. According to these trends, Korean power industry has been partially restructured, and the competitive generation market was opened in 2001. In competitive electric markets, correct demand data are one of the most important issue to maintain the flexible electric markets as well as the reliable power systems. However, the measuring load data can have the uncertainty because of mechanical trouble, communication jamming, and other things. To obtain the reliable load data, an efficient evaluation technique to adust the missing load data is needed. This paper analyzes the load pattern of historical real data and then the turned ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) model, PCHIP(Piecewise Cubic Interporation) and Branch & Bound method are applied to seek the missing parameters. The proposed method is tested under a variety of conditions and tested with historical measured data from the Korea Energy Management Corporation (KEMCO).

At 1473 K under atmospheric pressure, the homogeneous samples of the $Sm_{1-x}Sr_xFe^{3+}{_{1-t}}Fe^{4+}{_t}O_{3-y}$ ($0.00{\leq}x{\leq}1.00$) ferrite system were prepared. With the increase in x value, the amount of $Fe^{4+}$ ion increased and the crystallographic structure was changed from orthorhombic symmetry to cubic symmetry. The electrical conductivity at constant temperature sharply increases and the activation energy decreases with the increase of $Fe^{4+}$ ion. $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectrum of the sample x=0.00 shows six-line pattern indicating the presence of $Fe^{3+}$ ion in the octahedral sites.
