The present study investigates the hydrodynamic force acting on the vertical wall of a portable water storage tank which has reentrant bottom topology. To numerically simulate the lapping waves in the tank, functional iterative method for the linearized Peregrine's model which numerically simulates the propagating waves over the slowly-sloped bottom topology is introduced. The numerical experiment condition is controlled to adjust the position and the height of the water supplying nozzle. Finally, it is observed that the maximum wave height at the vertical wall and the ratio of hydrodynamic force to hydrostatic one are amplified accordingly. Therefore it must be give attention to this bad effect of amplified hydrodynamic force by the supply method of fire water in order to have the structural stability of the portable water storage tank when it was used on the reentrant bottom topography.

In this paper, we consider the effects on the bandpass filter characteristics due to the phase variation of the inverters with frequency, which introduces the deviations of the bandpass filter characteristics from the design goals. In order to resolve these kinds of problems, we proposed novel inverter configurations. And we derived the inverter formulas for the proposed inverter configuration. By employing the proposed inverter configuration and the derived formulas, bandpass filters are designed and simulated. In order to show the validity of the proposed design method, the simulation characteristics are compared with design results by conventional design procedures. Compared results show the compensation of the deviations of bandpass filter characteristics without any optimization or iterative design procedures and additional calculation efforts.

In this paper, two-hop beamforming relay system, with source, relay, and destination nodes, is considered and the transmit- and receive-beamforming vectors and the relay processing matrix are designed for minimizing a mean square error (MMSE) between the transmit and receive signals. Here, to reduce the transmit power of the source or the relay, two local inequality constraints are involved with MMSE problem. By adopting the Lagrange method, closed formed Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions (equalities) are derived and an iterative algorithm is developed to solve the entangled KKT equalities. Due to the inequality power constraints, the source or the relay can reduce its transmit power when the received signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) of the first- and the second-hop are different. Meanwhile, the destination can achieve almost identical bit-error-rate performance compared to an optimal beamforming system maximizing the received SNR. This claim is supported by a computer simulation.

Recently in the field of GIS(Geographic Information System), data integration from various sources has become an important topic in order to use spatial data effectively. In general, the integration of spatial data is accomplished by navigating corresponding space object and combining the information interacting with each object. But it is very difficult to navigate an object which has correspondence with one in another dataset. Many matching methods have been studied for navigating spatial object. The purpose of this paper is development of method for searching correspondent spatial object considering local position error which is remained even after coordinate transform ation when two different building data sets integrated. To achieve this goal, we performed coordinate transformation and overlapped two data sets and generated blocks which have similar position error. We matched building objects within each block using similarity and ICP algorithm. Finally, we tested this method in the aspect of applicability.

Several wireless localization algorithms are evaluated for the IR-UWB-based indoor location with the assumption that the ranging measurements contain the channelwise Non-Calibration Error (NCE). The localization algorithms can be divided into the Model-free Localization (MfL) methods and Model-based Kalman Filtering (MbKF). The algorithms covered in this paper include Iterative Least Squares (ILS), Direct Solution (DS), Difference of Squared Ranging Measurements (DSRM), and ILS-Common (ILS-C) methods for the MfL methods, and Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), EKF-Each Channel (EKF-EC), EKF-C, Cubature Kalman Filter (CKF), and CKF-C for the MbKF. Experimental results show that the DSRM method has better accuracy than the other MfL methods. Also, it demands smallest computation time. On the other hand, the EKF-C and CKF-C require some more computation time than the DSRM method. The accuracy of the EKF-C and CKF-C is, however, best among the 9 methods. When comparing the EKF-C and CKF-C, the CKF-C can be easily used. Finally, it is concluded that the CKF-C can be widely used because of its ease of use as well as it accuracy.

In this paper, we propose two algorithm for improving the performance of wireless localization(Trilateration and Least Square) based on the range based approach method in indoor environment using RSSI for ranging distance. we propose a method to discriminate the case that has relatively large estimation errors in trilateration using Heron''s formula for the volume of a tetrahedron. And we propose the algorithm to process the discriminated types of distance using the absolute value calculated by Heron''s formula. In addition, we propose another algorithm for the case of which the number of anchor nodes larger than three. In this case, Residual Weighting Factor(RWGH) improves the performance of Least Square. However, RWGH requires many number of calculations. In this paper, we propose Iterative Weighted Centroid Algorithm(IWCA) that has better performance and less calculation than RWGH. We show the improvement of performance for two algorithms and the combination of these algorithm by using simulation results.

This paper presents a new approach for the analysis of hot strip rolling processes. The approach is based on the finite element method and capable of predicting velocity field in the strip, temperature field in the strip, temperature field in the roll, and roll pressure. Basic finite element formulations for heat transfer analysis are described with emphasis on the treatment of numerical instability resulting from a standard Galerkin formulation. Comparison with the theoretical solutions found in the literature is made for the evaluation of the accuracy of the temperature solutions. An iterative scheme is developed for dealing with strong correlations between the metal flow characteristics and the thermal behavior of the roll-strip system. A series of process simulations are carried out to investigate the effect of various process parameters including interface friction, interface heat transfer coefficient, roll speed, reduction in thickness, and spray zone. The results are shown and discussed.

Linear roller bearing (LRB) is an important mechanical element that is widely used in precise positioning systems that are subjected to large loads. This paper presents a new model for estimating the displacement of an LRB subjected to external forces. For this purpose, assuming that the linear motion block (LM block) is rigid, the equilibrium conditions for the LRB were obtained by solving the equilibrium equations of the rollers and the rigid LM block using the iterative Newton-Raphson method. The contact loads between the rollers and raceways were determined considering the profiled rollers. Then, the structural deformations of the LM block, subjected to the contact loads from the rigid LM block model, were computed using a finite element model for the LM block. The displacements of the LRB were then determined by superposition of the rigid LM block displacements on the induced displacements due to the structural deformations of the LM block. The proposed method was verified through comparison with a program by the bearing manufacturer.

It is very difficult to restore the images degraded by motion blur and additive noise. In conventional methods, regularization usually applies to all the images without considering local characteristics of the images. As a result, ringing artifacts appear in the edge regions and noise amplification is in the flat regions, as well. To solve these problems, we propose an adaptive iterative regularization method, using the way of regularization operator considering edge directions. In addition, we suggest an adaptive regularization parameter and an relaxation parameter. In conclusion, We have verified that the new method shows the suppression of the noise amplification in the flat regions, also does less ringing artifacts in the edge regions. Furthermore, it offers better images and improves the quality of ISNR, comparing with those of conventional methods.

In the recent mobile communication systems, the performance of Turbo Code using the error correction coding depends on the interleaver influencing the free distance determination and the recursive decoding algorithms that is executed in the turbo decoder. However, performance depends on the interleaver depth that need great many delay over the reception process. Moreover, Turbo Code has been known as the robust coding methods with the confidence over the fading channel. The International Telecommunication Union(ITU) has recently adopted as the standardization of the channel coding over the third generation mobile communications the same as IMT-2000. Therefore, in this paper, we proposed of that has the better performance than existing Turbo Decoder that has the parallel concatenated four-step structure using MAP algorithm. In the real-time voice and video service over the third generation mobile communications, the performance of the proposed method was analyzed by the reduced decoding delay using the variable decoding method by computer simulation over AWGN and lading channels.
