The Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) consists of empirical mode decomposition (EMD) and Hilbert spectral analysis. EMD has been successfully applied for identification of mode shapes of structures based on input-output approaches. This paper aims to extend application of EMD for output-only identification of mode shapes of linear structures. In this regard, a new simple and efficient method based on band-pass filtering and EMD is proposed. Having rather accurate estimates of modal frequencies from measured responses, the proposed method is capable to extract the corresponding mode shapes. In order to evaluate the accuracy and performance of the proposed identification method, two case studies are considered. In the first case, the performance of the method is validated through the analysis of simulated responses obtained from an analytical structural model with known dynamical properties. The low-amplitude responses recorded from the UCLA Factor Building during the 2004 Parkfield earthquake are used in the second case to identify the first three mode shapes of the building in three different directions. The results demonstrate the remarkable ability of the proposed method in correct estimation of mode shapes of the linear structures based on rather accurate modal frequencies.

패턴인식 시스템은 일반적으로 데이터의 전처리, 특징 추출, 학습단계의 과정을 거쳐서 개발되어 진다. 그중에서도 특징 추출 과정은 다차원 공간을 가진 입력 데이터의 복잡도를 줄여서 다음 단계인 학습단계에서 계산 복잡도와 인식률을 향상시키는 역할을 한다. 패턴인식에서 특징 추출 기법으로써 principal component analysis, factor analysis, linear discriminant analysis 같은 방법들이 널리 사용되어져 왔다. 이 논문에서는 singular value decomposition (SVD) 방법이 패턴인식 시스템의 특징 추출과정에 유용하게 사용될 수 있음을 보인다. 특징 추출단계에서 SVD 기법의 유용성을 검증하기 위하여 원격탐사 응용에 적용하였는데, 실험결과는 널리 쓰이는 PCA에 비해 약 25%의 인식률의 향상을 가져온다는 것을 알 수 있다.

Solutions to the problems of structural parameter estimation from modal response using leastsquares minimization of force or displacement residuals are generally sensitive to noise in the response measurements. The sensitivity of the parameter estimates is governed by the physical characteristics of the structure and certain features of the noisy measurements. It has been shown that the regularization method can be used to reduce effects of the measurement noise on the estimation error through adding a regularization function to the parameter estimation objective function. In this paper, we adopt the regularization function as the Euclidean norm of the difference between the values of the currently estimated parameters and the a priori parameter estimates. The effect of the regularization function on the outcome of parameter estimation is determined by a regularization factor. Based on a singular value decomposition of the sensitivity matrix of the structural response, it is shown that the optimal regularization factor is obtained by using the maximum singular value of the sensitivity matrix. This selection exhibits the condition where the effect of the a priori estimates on the solutions to the parameter estimation problem is minimal. The performance of the proposed algorithm is investigated in comparison with certain algorithms selected from the literature by using a numerical example.

Using the frequency-based decomposition, I decompose the consumption growth to explain well-known patterns of stock returns in the Korean market. To be more specific, the consumption growth is decomposed by its half-life of shocks. The component over four years of half-life is called the business-cycle consumption component, and the components with half-lives under four years are short-run components. I compute the long-run and short-run components of stock excess returns as well and use component-by-component sensitivities to price stock portfolios. As a result, the business-cycle consumption risk with half-life of over four years is useful in explaining the cross-section of size-book-to-market portfolios and size-momentum portfolios in the Korean stock market. The short-run components have their own pricing abilities with mixed direction, so that the restricted one short-term factor model is rejected. The explanatory power with short- and long-run components is comparable to that of the Fama-French three-factor model. The components with one- to four-year half-lives are also helpful in explaining the returns. The results about the long-run components emphasize the importance of long-run component in consumption growth to explain the asset returns.

교량은 사회간접시설물의 핵심이 되는 도로의 주요 시설물이므로 공용기간 동안 안정성과 사용성이 확보될 수 있도록 건설되며, 교량의 안전성 확보를 위하여 현재 상태에서 건전성을 평가하는 것은 유지관리 업무에서 중요한 과제이다. 일반적으로 교량의 내하력 평가를 위해 차량재하시험을 통하여 횡분배율을 측정함으로써 교량의 중첩거동 및 대칭거동을 확인할 수 있다. 그러나 공용중인 교량의 횡분배율을 측정하기 위하여 정적재하시험을 수행하고 있으며 교통통제의 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 동적재하시험 및 상시진동시험에서 측정된 교량의 변위응답 데이터를 경험적 모드분해기법을 이용하여 정적 성분의 변위를 추출하였다. 추출된 정적 성분의 변위를 이용하여 횡분배율을 추정하였으며, 정적재하시험에서 측정된 횡분배율과 비교하였다.

The free vibration analysis of fluid conveying Timoshenko pipeline with different boundary conditions using Differential Transform Method (DTM) and Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) has not been investigated by any of the studies in open literature so far. Natural frequencies, modes and critical fluid velocity of the pipelines on different supports are analyzed based on Timoshenko model by using DTM and ADM in this study. At first, the governing differential equations of motion of fluid conveying Timoshenko pipeline in free vibration are derived. Parameter for the nondimensionalized multiplication factor for the fluid velocity is incorporated into the equations of motion in order to investigate its effects on the natural frequencies. For solution, the terms are found directly from the analytical solution of the differential equation that describes the deformations of the cross-section according to Timoshenko beam theory. After the analytical solution, the efficient and easy mathematical techniques called DTM and ADM are used to solve the governing differential equations of the motion, respectively. The calculated natural frequencies of fluid conveying Timoshenko pipelines with various combinations of boundary conditions using DTM and ADM are tabulated in several tables and figures and are compared with the results of Analytical Method (ANM) where a very good agreement is observed. Finally, the critical fluid velocities are calculated for different boundary conditions and the first five mode shapes are presented in graphs.

To synthesize copper nanoparticle a thermal decomposition was adopted. And to solve the problem of surface oxidation of the synthesized copper powder an electroless Ag plating method was used. The size and shape of synthesized Cu nanoparticle were affected by the size of copper oxalate used as a precursor, reaction solvent, reaction temperature and amount of reducing agent. Especially reaction solvent is dominant factor to control shape of Cu nano-particle which can have the shapes of sphere, polygon and rod. In case of glycerol, it produced spherical shape of about 500 nm in size. Poly ethylene produced uniform polygonal shape in about 700 nm and ethylene glycol produced both of polygon and rod having size range between 500 and 1500 nm. The silver coated copper powder showed a high electrical conductivity.

This paper gives characterization of substrate and PZT(53/47) thin film deposited by metalorganic decomposition, which is concerned in deposition process and device fabrication process, to fabricate micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) device with piezoelectric material. The PZT thin films deposited by MOD at 700^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes had a polycrystallinity, that is, no substrate dependence, while different interface were developed depending on the bottom electrodes. Such a structural variation could influence on not only the properties of the PZT film but also etching process for fabricating MEMS devices. Therefore the electrode structure is a very important factor in the deposition of the PZT film during etching process by HF acid for MEMS device with piezoelectric material. Piezoelectric coefficients of the PZT films on the different substrates were 40 and 80 pm/V at an applied voltage of 4V. Based in these results, it was possible for deposition of the PZT film by MOD to apply MEMS device fabrication process based on piezoelectricity after selection of proper bottom electrode.

In this paper, we propose one unsupervised classification technique using the degree of polarization (DoP) and the co-polarized phase-difference (CPD) statistics, instead of the entropy and alpha. It is shown that the DoP is closely related to the entropy, and the CPD to the alpha. The DoP explains the feature how much the effect of multiple reflections is contained. Hence, the DoP could be used as an important factor for classifying classes. The CPD can also be computed from the measured Mueller matrix elements. For the smooth surface scattering, the CPD is about $0^{\circ}$, and for dihedral-type scattering, the CPD is about $180^{\circ}$. A DoP-CPD diagram with appropriate boundaries between six different classes is developed based on the SAR image. The classification results are compared with the existing Entropy-alpha diagram as well as the IPL-AirSAR polarimetric data. The technique may have capability to classify an SAR image into six major classes; a bare surface, a village, a crown-layer short vegetation canopy, a trunk-layer short vegetation canopy, a crown-layer forest, and a trunk-dominated forest. Based on the DoP and CPD analysis, a simple three-component decomposition technique was also proposed.
