The accurate measurement of the room sound level is required in environment noise control. However, it has been found that the measurement system noise always corrupts the actual noise from the sound source. In this study, a new sound level measurement technique in which the system noise is eliminated from the measured signal by the cross spectrum method, is proposed. The received signals of two measuring microphones are recorded to DAT through the pre-amplifier and digitized by A/D converter. The cross spectrum calculated from the digitized signals gives the accurate sound level since the system noise is uncorrelated with the sound source noise which we want to measure. The performance of the proposed technique is verified experimentally to be effective and the technique is found to be economic since the low cost general purpose microphone could be used in this technique.

Many researches have been conducted in the field of constructing controllers for ships over 20 years. But still, ship automatic track-keeping controllers has not been designed for ship's automatic berthing as they considered nearly constant ship's speed. This study dealt with this problem to design track-keeping control on ship's model of SAE NURI using nonlinear mathematical expression. By using this control, the ship is auto track-kept in fare-way at reducing speed to anchorage place. The simulation results proved that this control can be adapted in ship's auto berthing in near future.

This paper describes the FFT and coefficient analysis of vibration signals for preventive diagnosis of a mold transformer at normal and abnormal state. Varying applied voltage, loading current and temperature as control variables for he experiment, measurement variables such as magnitude of vibration signals, frequency spectrum and time series coefficient were analyzed. The vibration signals by variation of control variables were measured by acceleration sensor adhered on the surface of winding and core, and measurement variables were calculated using dat acquisition system. After analyzing the normal state, the structural distortion was also simulated. The vibration signals at abnormal state were measured by the same control variables variation as the normal state. As a result, vibration signals between normal and abnormal state could be distinguished by comparison of the perpendicular and horizontal vibration signal.

As the greater interests are focused onto wireless message transfer, wireless data base access and mobile computing the techniques for integrating various dat a services into the mobile communication systems are seriously needed. In this paper we propose a traffic handing scheme to provide mixed media services more effectively, and analyze is performance. The proposed scheme was found to improve data performances and, regardless of varying data traffic load, provide acceptable level of blocking rate to voice services simultaneouly. Also it is more effective for message-oriented data services.

가스 배관 진단 시스템은 배관 내부에 삽입되어 배관 내에 주입된 가스에 의해 추진되는 시스템으로 배관의 건설, 유지, 보수, 해체 등의 작업을 위한 여러 정보를 수집한다. 배관 진단을 위한 대표적인 센서로는 배관 내부의 찌그러짐(dent)과 주름(wrinkle)의 형태 및 크기를 측정하는 캘리퍼(caliper) 센서와 배관 외부의 파손을 측정하는 MFL(Magnetic Flus Leakage) 센서 그리고 배관 내의 환경 정보를 측정하기 위한 온도 센서와 압력 센서가 있다. 이러한 센서들로 수집된 정보를 활용하기 위해서는 정확한 위치 정보가 필요하므로 IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit)와 주행 거리계를 사용하는 결합 항법 시스템도 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 가스 배관 진단 시스템을 위한 항법 데이터 저장 시스템을 개발한다. 배관 진단 시스템의 특성상 일반적인 측정 센서는 700Hz 이상의 주기로 측정되고 항법 정보는 100Hz 주기 이상으로 측정되며 배관 내 이동 시간은 2시간에서 24시간 이상으로 다양하므로 많은 데이터를 효율적으로 저장할 수 있어야 한다. 따라서 데이터 저장 장치로는 DAT를 사용하게 되며 많은 센서 데이터를 실시간으로 저장하기 위해서 마스터-슬레이브 구조를 갖는 멀티 프로세서 구성을 이용한 항법 데이터 저장 시스템을 설계 제작하였다.

Seven phenolic compounds including p-coumaric acid (1), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (2), 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (3), vanillic acid (4), luteolin (5), acacetin (6), and tricin (7), were isolated from the methylene chloride and ethyl acetate fractions of Echinochloa utilis grains. Compounds (1 - 4, 6) were isolated for the first time from this plant. These compounds were tested for inhibitory activities against LPS-induced NO production in RAW 264.7 cells. Compounds 5 and 6 displayed significant inhibitory effects, with $IC_{50}$ values of $27.9{\pm}2.6$ and $14.0{\pm}1.1{\mu}M$, respectively. The results suggested that E. utilis ethanolic extract may be used as a potential source of anti-inflammatory agents and functional foods for the treatment of allergic diseases.

Five known kaurane type diterpenoids, 16$\alpha$H, 17-isovaleryloxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid (1), 16$\alpha$-hydroxy-17-isovaleryloxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid (2), paniculoside-IV (3), 16$\alpha$-hydroxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid (4), and ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid (5) were isolated from the root of Acanthopanax koreanum by repeated column chromatography and reversed phase preparative HPLC. The structures of these compounds were established from physicochemical and spectral data. Among the isolated compounds 16$\alpha$H, 17-isovaleryloxy-ent-kauran-19-oic acid (1) showed potent inhibitory activity ($IC_50$ value, 16.2 $\mu$ M) on TNF-$\alpha$ secretion from HMC-1, a trypsin-stimulated human leukemic mast cell line.

In this study, a novel hierarchical approach is investigated to extract coronary vessel from X-ray angiogram. First, we propose to combine Decimation-free Directional Filter Bank (DDFB) and Homographic Filtering (HF) in order to enhance X-ray coronary angiographic image for segmentation purposes. Because the blood vessel ensures that blood flows in only one direction on vessel branch, the DDFB filter is suitable to be used to enhance the vessels at different orientations and radius. In the combination with HF filter, our method can simultaneously normalize the brightness across the image and increases contrast. Next, a coarse-to-fine strategy for iterative segmentation based on Otsu algorithm is applied to extract the main coronary vessels in different sizes. Furthermore, we also propose a new approach to segment very small vessels. Specifically, based on information of the main extracted vessels, we introduce a new method to extract junctions on the vascular tree and level of nodes on the tree. Then, the window based segmentation is applied to locate and extract the small vessels. Experimental results on our coronary X-ray angiography dataset demonstrate that the proposed approach can outperform standard method and attain the accuracy of 71.34%.
