40-100m 수심에 평탄한 모래층으로 구성된 구성된 친해를 1/1,000모형으로 축소시킨 무향수조내에서 Pekeris 모델에 대한 normal mode 관측실험을 점수신기로 수행하였다. 무향수조에 사용된 쐐기형 흡음재가 50kHz이상에서 20-25dB의 반향음 감쇠율을 가지므로 해서 이 수조가 해양과 유사한 조건을 갖게 되었으며, 실험에 사용된 점수신기는 B&K의 8130 수중청음기에 음향중심으로부터 조그만 크기의 사각형 틈을 제외하고 pressure-release 물질을 씌움으로써 얻을 수 있었다. 이 실험을 통해 얻은 결과들을 종합해 보면 연속모드의 피적분함수가 cut-off로부터 멀어지면 불연속모드의 합으로만 된 이론식과는 대략 수심의 10배 이내에서 다소 차이를 보일 뿐 전 관측거리에서 실험결과와 비교적 잘 일치하고 있다. 그러나 연속모드의 공진이 cut-off에 가까워 질수록 가상모드가 음향에 미치는 역할이 증대되어 근거리에서는 불연속모드의 합으로만 된 이론식과 큰 차이가 날 뿐만 아니라 영향이 미치는 거리가 수심의 수십배까지 증가함을 볼 수 있다. 특히 불연속모드의 개수가 2개이고 cut-off로부터 아주 가까운 가상모드가 존재할 경우, 가상모드가 수심의 60배 가까운 거리까지 영향을 미치는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

Centrifugal fans are widely used and the noise generated by these machines causes one of the most serious problems. In general, the centrifugal fan noise is often dominated by tones at BPF(blade passage frequency) and its higher harmonics. This is a consequence of the strong interaction between the flow discharged from the impeller and the cutoff in the casing. However, only a few researches have been carried out on predicting the noise due to the difficulty in obtaining detailed information about the flow field and casing effects on noise radiation. The objective of this study is to develop a prediction method for the unsteady flow field and the acoustic pressure field of a centrifugal fan and to calculate the effects of rotating velocity, flow rate, cut-off distance and the number of blades and its effects on the noise of the fan. We assume that the impeller rotates with a constant angular velocity and the flow field around the impeller is incompressible and inviscid. So, a discrete vortex method (DVM) is used to model the centrifugal fan and to calculate the flow field. The force of each element on the blade is calculated with the unsteady Bernoulli equation. Lowson's method is used to predict the acoustic source. The cut-off distance is the most important factor effecting the noise generation. Acoustic pressure is proportional to 2.8, which shows the same scaling index as the experimental result. In this paper, the cut-off distance is found to be the dominant parameter offecting the acoustic pressure.

Purpose: To evaluate the visual acuity and visual performance after implantation of a aspheric multifocal (ReSTOR$^{(R)}$ SN6AD3) intraocular lens (IOL). Methods: Nineteen cataract patients (30 eyes) implanted with an aspheric multifocal IOL (ReSTOR$^{(R)}$ SN6AD3) either unilaterally or bilaterally were participated. Visual acuity (VA) and objective optical performance were evaluated at the time of preoperation, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 month after operation. At 3 month of post-operation, objective visual performance were measured and compared with the 38 eyes of 20 age-matched normal control. Distance VA was measured by using the ETDRS LCD chart and intermediate and near visual acuity were measured using Jaeger chart. Objective visual performance was assessed preoperatively and 1 week, 1 month and 3 month postoperatively using a double-pass system (Optical Quality Analysis System) with a 4-mm pupil diameter, the OSI (objective scatter index), MTF (modulation transfer function) cut off and strehl ratio. At 3 month of post-operation, visual acuity and visual performance compared with age matched normal control. Results: The uncorrected distance VA, OSI, MTF cut off and strehl ratio were significantly improved (p<0.05) until 1 month postoperatively. Visual performance of MTF cut off and strehl ratio after 3 month of operation were significantly improved compared to the normal control (p=0.063, p=0.103 respectively), however, OSI was higher than normal control. Patients implanted with aspheric multifocal IOL were satisfied with distance and near VA however, were unsatisfied with intermediate VA and reported glare and halos. Conclusions: The visual performance reaches to a stable condition in 1 month of implantation of aspheric multifocal IOL and improved to the level of age-mated normal patients. Also patients were satisfied with their quality of vision, however, intermediate VA, glare and halos were reported as complications.

Parallel and cross of the electrical power and telecommunication network is become accelerated, because telecommunication equipments are constructed according to road for efficient maintenance of domestic telecommunication network. The electrical power network can generate an electrostatic induction, and is itself transmission medium from electrical transient phenomenon such as lighting. So, transient phenomenon of lightning surge is induced to telecommunication network, and then it is damaged by connecting between electrical ground of electrical power network and telecommunication network. In this study, we found that cut-off of return path current by separate distance between electrical ground of electrical power network and telecommunication network, and cut-off of electrostatic induction voltage by grounding unused leads of both terminals of the electrical and telecommunication network have good effect as the protection methods of telecommunications network from electrical transient phenomena.

The distance join is a spatial join which finds data pairs in the order of distance when associating two spatial data sets. This paper proposes several methods to optimize the adaptive multi-stage distance join, presented in [1]. First, we optimize the sweeping index formula which is used for selecting sweeping axis during plane sweeping. Second, to improve the performance of a priority queue used for maintaining node pairs, we propose to use the maximum distance of a node pair as the second priority of the queue. Moreover, we compare trade-offs in estimating the cut-off distance between under uniformity assumption of data distribution and non-uniformity assumption. The experiments show that the proposed methods greatly improve the performance of the algorithm in CPU cost as well as in I/O cost.

It is reported that social distancing caused by the corona pandemic has resulted in a decrease in physical activity, and a decrease in muscle mass due to this increases the risk of vascular disease. Therefore, in this study, the risk of carotid intima media thickness was evaluated by measuring the thickness of CIMT, and the differences in variables according to gender were analyzed. From January 2022 to May 2022, a total of 220 people (121 males, 99 females) who performed blood tests, carotid ultrasound, and body composition analysis among those who visited the health check-up center of Busan H Hospital were included in this study. Significant differences in risk factors according to gender were analyzed using the chi-square test. The cut-off values of variables that can predict the risk of carotid intima media thickness were calculated, and the accuracy was evaluated by calculating the area under the curve, sensitivity, and specificity. As a result of the difference analysis, the higher the total cholesterol in men and the appendicular skeletal muscle index in women, the higher the risk of carotid intima media thickness. The cut-off value for predicting the risk of carotid intima media thickness was calculated to be greater than 199 mg/dL of total cholesterol in the male group and less than 5.9 kg/m² of the appendicular skeletal muscle index in the female group. As a result of this study, the higher the total cholesterol in men and the lower the appendicular skeletal muscle index in women, the higher the risk of increased CIMT. Therefore, in women, the appendicular skeletal muscle index is expected to serve as an indicator to predict and prevent vascular changes at an early stage.

In this paper, we propose a new GPU-based framework for quickly calculating adaptive and continuous SDF(Signed distance fields), and examine cases related to rendering/collision processing using them. The quadtree constructed from the triangle mesh is transferred to the GPU memory, and the Euclidean distance to the triangle is processed in parallel for each thread by using it to find the shortest continuous distance without discontinuity in the adaptive grid space. In this process, it is shown through experiments that the cut-off view of the adaptive distance field, the distance value inquiry at a specific location, real-time raytracing, and collision handling can be performed quickly and efficiently. Using the proposed method, the adaptive sign distance field can be calculated quickly in about 1 second even on a high polygon mesh, so it is a method that can be fully utilized not only for rigid bodies but also for deformable bodies. It shows the stability of the algorithm through various experimental results whether it can accurately sample and represent distance values in various models.

The characteristics of supersonic coaxial/off-axis jet impingements on a slanted kerf surface were experimentally studied, to investigate the role of the assist gas that removes molten materials from cut zone formed by laser machining. In this parametric study, hundreds of high-resolution schlieren images were obtained for various gas pressures, distances between nozzle exit and kerf surface, kerf widths, and alignments of off-axis nozzle. It was noticed that simply increasing the assist gas pressure was not effective in eliminating the flow separation that occurs downstream of the kerf surface. However, it was also observed that by increasing the kerf width and utilizing off-axis nozzles, the separation of the assist gas on the kerf surface can be weakened. The effect of the distance between the nozzle exit and the kerf surface on the characteristics of separation occurring on the kerf surface was found to be lower in the case of supersonic nozzles than that in the case of sonic nozzles.

This paper propose an adaptive control of symmetry contribution based generalized symmetry transform. which can be controlled symmetry contribution according to the intensity orientation of two pixels. In the proposed method, we define the C-D(convergent and divergent)plane which represents convergence and divergence region of gradient pairs. and used the gaussian phase wight function, with respect to the distance from the gradient pair to an extreme point, in calculating the symmetry contribution. The proposed method can be detect the object more efficiently by adaptive controlling the cut-off frequency of the gaussian phase wight function. To evaluate a performance of the proposed method, we compare the proposed method and conventional GST method in various images including IR image. we prove that the proposed method have better performance in object detection.
