In this paper the capacity of Covariance Proper Transformation (CPT) analyses to provide information about the wind loading mechanisms of bluff bodies is investigated through the application to square cylinders. CPT is applied to the fluctuating pressure distributions on a single cylinder, as well as on a pair of cylinders in the tandem and side by side arrangements, with different separations. Both smooth and turbulent flow conditions are considered. First, through the analysis of the contributions of each CPT mode to the total fluctuating aerodynamic forces, a correspondence between modes and aerodynamic components is sought, which is then verified through examination of the mode shapes. When a correspondence between modes and aerodynamic components is found, an attempt is made to separate the different frequency contributions to the aerodynamic forces, provided by each mode. From the analyses it emerges that (a) in most cases each mode is associated to one single force component, that (b) retaining a limited number of modes allows reproducing the aerodynamic forces with a rather good accuracy, and that (c) each mode is mainly associated with one frequency of excitation.

Traveling salesman problem is to minimize the total cost for a traveling salesman who wants to make a tour given finite number of cities along with the cost of travel between each pair them, visiting each cities exactly once before returning home. Traveling salesman problem is known to be NP-hard, and it needs a lot of computing time to get the optimal solution, so that heuristics are more frequently developed than optimal algorithms. This study suggests a hybrid parallel genetic algorithm(HPGA) for traveling salesman problem The suggested algorithm combines parallel genetic algorithm, nearest neighbor search, and 2-opt. The suggested algorithm has been tested on 7 problems in TSPLIB and compared the results of existing methods(heuristics, meta-heuristics, hybrid, and parallel). Experimental results shows that HPGA could obtain good solution in total travel distance minimization.

A convenient spectrophotometric method was examined for the determination of amantadine sulfate (AMTS) which has no UV-VIS chromopohores. AMTS was ion-paired quantitatively with methyl orange (MO) at $70^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The ion-paired complex was extracted with dichloromethane and the absorbance was measured at 421.5 nm. A linear relationship was observed in the range of $2.5{\times}10^{-7}\;M$ to $3.75{\times}10^{-6}\;M$ and the correlation coefficient was 0.999 (n=3). This assay method was applied to the quantification of AMTS in commercial tablet form with good recovery and high precision.

This paper introduces a new energy function, as maximum a posteriori(MAP) estimate of binocular disparity, that can deal with both random dot stereo-gram(RDS) and natural scenes. The energy function uses phase-magnitude as features to detect only the shift for a pair of corrupted conjugate images. Also we adopted Fleet singularity that effectively detects unstable areas of image plant and thus eliminates in advance error-prone stereo mathcing. The multi-scale concept is applied to the multi laser architecture that can search the solutions systematically from coarse to fine details and thereby avoids drastically the local minima. Using mean field approximation, we obtained a compact representation that is suitable for fast computation. In this manner, the energy function satisfies major natural constraints and requirements for implementing parallel relaxation. As an experiment, the proposed algorithm is applied to RDS and natural stereo images. As a result we will see that it reveals good performance in terms of recognition errors, parallel implementation, and noise characteristics.

In this paper, we fabricated a pair of circulaly polarized conical horn antennas for evaluating the scattering characteristics of a hemispherical reflector and of propagation characteristics in in-building environments, which is required for constructing a new wireless in-building communication system of microwave band consisted of a hemispherical reflector installed on the ceiling. The measurements show the fairly good features such that cross-polarization discremination more than 27 dB and axial-ratio less than 1.25 dB.

A new high-definition stereoscopic PTV was constructed using two CCD cameras, stereoscopic photogrammetry based on a 30-PTV principle. The arrangement of the two cameras was based on angular position. The calibration of cameras and the pair-matching of the three-dimensional velocity vectors were based on Genetic Algorithm based 30-PTV technique. The constructed Stereoscopic PTV technique was tested on the standard images of the Impinging jet proposed by VSJ. The results on the turbulent properties of the jet obtained by the constructed system showed a good agreement with the original LES data.

We propose a deep learning method for multi-focus image fusion. Unlike most existing pixel-level fusion methods, either in spatial domain or in transform domain, our method directly learns an end-to-end fully convolutional two-stream network. The framework maps a pair of different focus images to a clean version, with a chain of convolutional layers, fusion layer and deconvolutional layers. Our deep fusion model has advantages of efficiency and robustness, yet demonstrates state-of-art fusion quality. We explore different parameter settings to achieve trade-offs between performance and speed. Moreover, the experiment results on our training dataset show that our network can achieve good performance with subjective visual perception and objective assessment metrics.

The Wittig-oxy-Cope rearrangements of deprotonated diallyl ether, I, $CH_2={\bar{C}}H-CH-O-CH_2-CH=CH_2$, have been investigated theoretically by the AM1 method. A two step mechanism forming a Wittig product ion, II, $(CH_2=CH)$ $(CH_2=CH-CH_2)$ $CHO^-$, through a radical-pair intermediate was found to provide the most favored reaction pathway in the Wittig rearrangement. The subsequent oxy-Cope rearrangement from species II also involves a two step mechanism through a biradicaloid intermediate. The intramolecular proton transfer in I (to form $CH_2=CH-CH_2-O-{\bar{C}}H-CH=CH_2$) is a higher activation energy barrier process compared to the Wittig and oxy-Cope rearrangements and is considered to be insignificant. These results are in good agreement with the condensed-phase as well as gas-phase experimental results.

A new spectrophotometric method was established for the determination of undecylenic acid. The method is based on the solvent extraction into nitrobenzene of the ion pair formed between tris(1,10-phenanthroline)Fe(II) chelate and the anion of undecylenic acid. The maximum absorbance of the extract in the organic phase was at 518nm. A maximum extraction was obtained at pH 9-11, when excess of at least 50-fold(molar) of the phenanthroline-Fe(II) chelate to undecylenic acid was present. The color intensity of the extracted species remained constant at room temperature for the several hours after separation of the organic layer. A linear relationship was obtained over the tested range of 5-20${\gamma}$/ml of undecylenic acid. The effect of several other fungicids on this method was investigated. The method was applied to the determination of undecylenic acid in preparations and the results were in good agreement with those added amounts.

I investigate the origin of arc degeneracies in satellite microlens parallax ${\pi}_E$ measurements with only late time data, e.g., t > $t_0+t_E$ as seen from the satellite. I show that these are due to partial overlap of a series of osculating, exactly circular, degeneracies in the ${\pi}_E$ plane, each from a single measurement. In events with somewhat earlier data, these long arcs break up into two arclets, or (with even earlier data) two points, because these earlier measurements give rise to intersecting rather than osculating circles. The two arclets (or points) then constitute one pair of degeneracies in the well-known four-fold degeneracy of space-based microlens parallax. Using this framework of intersecting circles, I show that next-generation microlens satellite experiments could yield good ${\pi}_E$ determinations with only about five measurements per event, i.e., about 30 observations per day to monitor 1500 events per year. This could plausibly be done with a small (hence cheap, in the spirit of Gould & Yee 2012) satellite telescope, e.g., 20 cm.
