  • Free-form shapes which were once considered as an aesthetic feature are now an important functional requirement. CNC industries are looking for a compact solution for reproducing free-form shapes as conventional interpolation models are inadequate, The parametric curve interpolator developed in the last decade has clearly emerged as favorite among its contemporaries in recent years, At present intense research has been done on parametric curve interpolators and interesting developments are reported. Out of the various parametric representations for curves and surfaces, NURBS has been standardized and widely used in free-form shape design. This paper presents a review of various methods of parametric interpolation for NURBS and discusses the salient features, problems and solutions. Recent approaches on variable feedrate interpolation, parameter compensation are also reviewed and research trends are addressed finally.

  • Glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) is very suitable as a material for free-form concrete panels (FCPs) because of its lightweight, strong, moldable, durable and sustainable properties. GFRC is superior in construction and maintenance compared with materials such as steel, aluminium, titanium, glass and plastic, and is advantageous in cost. However, GFRC is being produced by skilled craftsmen, and still lacks the technology to economically produce high quality FCPs. Currently, there is a technology to automatically and accurately produce FCPs. However, the developed technology can not be applied to the field with simple production technology without production line for mass production. To solve this problem, the purpose of this study is a basic study of production system development of free-form concrete panels. This study introduces the developed FCPs production technology and builds FCP production system for mass production. The results of this study will be used as basic data for the commercial production of FCPs in the future.

  • This paper classifies the structure of the intersection curve between a surface of extrusion and a free-form surface. Our algorithm computes the silhouette curve of the free-form surface with respect to the unique ruling direction of the surface of extrusion. By intersecting the silhouette curve and the base curve of the surface of extrusion, we can classify the topological structure of the intersection curve, and compute all singularities in the intersection curve. Moreover, we can determine which ruling lines of the surface of extrusion intersect the other free-form surface and how many times. This classification provides a robust and efficient method for computing the intersection curve.

  • Free-form Concrete Panel(FCP) is each panel that composes the concrete exterior skin of Free-form building. FCPs contain curved surfaces, and FCPs have different curvature, size, and angles. In order to manufacture FCP, high technology is required, and it is currently difficult to manufacture it according to the design shape. In particular, many errors occur in the side shape of FCP. This is because when the side silicone mold is applied, it is installed without a coupling method between molds and support device. In this study, basic research was conducted to develop a side silicone mold support device to solve the above problems. We classified the required performance and derived the detailed requirements. Also, Based on this, we drew the basic design of the support device. We plans to conduct design improvement, mock-up making, and FCP manufacturing experiments through future research.

  • In this paper, We compared middle-aged wearer's satisfaction of progressive multifocal lens and free-form progressive multifocal lens wearers, and investigate the direction of improvement of progressive multifocal lens. We tried to predict the development direction of progressive lenses in the future. The results of the survey, satisfaction of free-form progressive multifocal lens wearers was high, compared to normal progressive lenses. The price of free-form progressive multifocal lens is expensive compared to the nomal progressive multifocal lens, but provides a wide view than nomal progressive lenses. It was confirmed that there is sufficient merit. because it can be made in individual customized to the wearer. In the near future, It is expected that free-form progressive multifocal lenses is the most popular progressive multifocal lenses to middle-aged wearers.

  • Recent developments in architectural technologies and programs have enabled architects to think creatively and design free-form architecture. however, there are many problems in the production technology of FCP(Free-Form Concrete Panel). In particular, reduced accuracy due to lack of free-form panel production technology can lead to redesign of buildings as a result, problems such as an increase in construction cost and period. Therefore, this experiment aimed to compensate the decrease of the accuracy according to the displacement difference and to derive the proper mixing ratio for maintaining the shape during the free-form panel curing. In this study, molds were made using paraffin that is a recyclable phase change material. Concrete Panel is usually produced from Portland cement, dead burn magnesia, phosphate, borax and fine aggregate. In this study, four mixing ratios of FCP were selected after each material was blended to determine the proper blending ratio of the fluidity phase, the water absorption rate and the water content of the test piece. FCP was fabricated on the basis of the selected four compounding ratios and thickness and error rate were measured. Based on the error rate of the measured FCP, the quality standard was satisfied among the four compounding ratios.

  • In this paper a free-form hull design program and performance prediction program for planing boat is introduced. This program enables the designer to do complex geometric hull shape design on a personal computer and accurately to predict power requirements for a given loading and velocity. For a free form design, Bezier curve model is adopted as a basic representation tool of curves and surfaces, and this program has versatile functions to do fairing jobs with a convenient graphical user interface. After creating a hull form the geometric data is provided in a manner compatible with a variety of analysis tools including 'Motion Analysis(by Zarnick)' for prediction of motion characteristics in regular waves, 'Running Attitude (by Savitsky)' for prediction of the running attitude and required power.

  • Four polymorphic forms (I, II, III and IV) of hydrochlorothiazide have been characterized on the basis of x-ray diffractometry and differential thermal analysis. Form I was obtained by crystallization from N, N-dimethylformamide and Form II was crystallized from hot methanol. Form III was precipitated from sodium hydroxide aqueous solution by treatment with hydrochloric acid and Form IV was crystallized from 50% methanol. The metastable form I was a most stable form among four polymorphs, which was stable more than ten months at room temperature. The thermodynamic parameters such as heat of solution, enthalpy, entropy, free energy difference and transition temperature were determined by the measurement of intrinsic dissolution rate. The transition temperature and the heat of transition between the metastable Form I an Form II were determined to be $299.15^{\circ}$K and 5.03 Kcal/mole, respectively and free energy difference ($\delta$ F) was 302. 13 cal/mole. Diuretic action of these four polymorphic forms was also evaluated by monitoring the difference in urinary excretion of sodium, potassium and magnesium in rats.

  • This paper proposed context based annotation model and annotation ambiguity correction methods. The proposed model provides various annotation types, semantic models, and pen-based free drawing interface. Annotation correction method that is specifically based on the context which includes various textual and structure information between free-form marking and annotation. Also, interface for XML environment using the proposed model and correction methods is proposed and possibilities of application is looked at. The results from the implementation of the proposed method show that the annotated areas included in the free-form marking information are more accurate, achieving more accurate exchange results amongst multiple users in a heterogeneous document environment
