In this paper, cognitive radio and simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) are effectively combined to design a spectrum-efficient and energy-efficient transmission paradigm. Specifically, a novel SWIPT-based primary-secondary cooperation model is proposed to increase the transmission rate of energy/spectrum constrained users. In the proposed model, a multi-antenna secondary user conducts simultaneous energy harvesting and information forwarding by means of power splitting (PS), and tries to maximize its own transmission rate under the premise of successfully assisting the data delivery of the primary user. After the problem formulation, joint power splitting and beamforming optimization algorithms for decode-and-forward and amplify-and-forward modes are presented, in which we obtain the optimal PS factor and beamforming vectors using a golden search method and dual methods. Simulation results show that the proposed SWIPTbased primary-secondary cooperation schemes can obtain a much higher level of performance than that of non-SWIPT cooperation and non-cooperation schemes.

Quayside container cranes are important delivery machineries located in the most frontiers of container terminals, where strong wind attacks happen occasionally. Since the previous researches on quayside container cranes mainly focused on the mean wind load and static response characteristics, the fluctuating wind load and dynamic response characteristics require further investigations. In the present study, the aerodynamic wind loads on quayside container cranes were obtained from wind tunnel tests. The probabilistic and spectral models of the fluctuating aerodynamic loads were established. Then the joint probabilistic distributions of dynamic wind-induced responses were derived theoretically based on a series of Gaussian and independent assumption of resonant components. Finally, the results were validated by time domain analysis using wind tunnel data. It is concluded that the assumptions are acceptable. And the presented approach can estimate peak dynamic sliding force, overturning moments and leg uplifts of quayside container cranes effectively and efficiently.

High-definition (HD) maps can provide precise road information that enables an autonomous driving system to effectively navigate a vehicle. Recent research has focused on leveraging semantic segmentation to achieve automatic annotation of HD maps. However, the existing methods suffer from low recognition accuracy in automatic driving scenarios, leading to inefficient annotation processes. In this paper, we propose a novel semantic segmentation method for automatic HD map annotation. Our approach introduces a new encoder, known as the convolutional transformer hybrid encoder, to enhance the model's feature extraction capabilities. Additionally, we propose a multi-level fusion module that enables the model to aggregate different levels of detail and semantic information. Furthermore, we present a novel decoupled boundary joint decoder to improve the model's ability to handle the boundary between categories. To evaluate our method, we conducted experiments using the Bird's Eye View point cloud images dataset and Cityscapes dataset. Comparative analysis against stateof-the-art methods demonstrates that our model achieves the highest performance. Specifically, our model achieves an mIoU of 56.26%, surpassing the results of SegFormer with an mIoU of 1.47%. This innovative promises to significantly enhance the efficiency of HD map automatic annotation.

본 논문에서는 결합 변환 상관 평면에 이동 변위에 따른 위상 성분의 영향을 또 다른 암호화 매개변수로 이용하여 무작위 위상 영상과 매개 변수 값을 암호화요소로 사용하는 광 암호화방법을 제안하였다. 암호화과정 시 사용자만이 알고 있는 이동 변위 수치를 원 영상에 더하여 위상 변조한 후, 위상 변조한 무작위 위상과 공간 영역에서 곱한다. 곱해진 영상을 푸리에 변환을 하여 최종 암호화 영상을 생성하며, 이 때 키 영상은 무작위 위상 영상을 푸리에 변환하여 얻는다. 생성된 암호화 영상은 원 영상을 재생 시키 영상과 이동 변위 수치 정보가 동시에 필요로 하며, 키 영상은 복소함수로 세기 검출기로 쉽게 복제가 힘들뿐만 아니라 설사 키 영상이 복제하거나 도난 또는 분실된 경우에도 불법 사용자는 이동 변위 정보를 획득해야만 원 영상 정보를 재생할 수 있으므로, 좀 더 높은 암호화 수준으로 원 영상 정보를 보호할 수 있다. 복호화 과정은 결합 변환 상관 평면에 암호화 영상과 키 영상을 암호화 시 사용한 이동 변위 값에 따라 위치시켜 간단히 구현할 수 있으며, 간섭계 구조나 4-f 상관기 구조를 이용하지 않으므로 광축 정렬이나 외부 환경 변화에 영향을 받지 않고 원 영상을 재생할 수 있다.

The p13 gene is uniquely present in Group II nucleopolyhedroviruses (NPVs) and some granuloviruses, but not in Group I NPVs. p13 gene was first described by our laboratory in Leucania separatamultiple nuclear polyhedrosis virus (Ls-p13) in 1995. However, the functions of Ls-P13 and of its homologues are unknown. When Ls-p13 was inserted into Autographa californica nucleopolyhedrovirus, a Group I NPV, polyhedra yield was inhibited. However, this inhibition was prevented when the leucine zipper-like domain of Ls-p13 was mutated. To determine the cause of this marked difference between Ls-P13 and leucine zipper mutated Ls-P13 (Ls-P13mL), oligomerization and secondary structure analyses were performed. High performance liquid chromatography and yeast two-hybrid assays indicated that neither Ls-P13 nor Ls-P13mL could form oligomers. Informatics and circular dichroism spectropolarimetry results further indicated marked secondary structural differences between Ls-P13 and Ls-P13mL. The LZLD of Ls-P13 has two extended heptad repeat units which form a hydrophobic surface, but it is short of a third hydrophobic heptad repeat unit for oligomerization. However, the mutated LZLD of Ls-P13mL lacks the above hydrophobic surface, and its secondary structure is markedly different. This difference in its secondary structure may explain why Ls-P13mL is unable to inhibit polyhedra yield.

이 연구는 댑단부 설계방법, 덧침 콘크리트 접합면의 상태, 댑단부의 형상 등의 구조상세가 MRS 연속단 접합부의 하중저항 메커니즘과 거동 특성에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 댑단부의 전단설계를 위한 계수하중으로서 고정하중과 활하중을 고려한 실험체와 고정하중만을 대상으로 설계한 실험체는 모두 접합부의 연성적인 휨파괴를 보여주었다. 따라서 MRS 연속단 접합부의 댑단부는 시공단계에 따라 변화하는 응력상태에 맞게 댑단부의 전단설계를 한다면 실제 사용상태의 하중은 연속단의 휨저항 메커니즘에 의해 저항할 수 있다고 판단된다. 또한 접합면의 거칠기는 MRS 연속단 접합부의 휨강도에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났지만 MRS 단부에 전단키를 설치한 구조상세는 변형능력을 향상시키는 결과를 보여주었다.

Passive negative stiffness dampers (NSDs) that possess superior energy dissipation abilities, have been proved to be more efficient than commonly adopted passive viscous dampers in controlling stay cable vibrations. Recently, inertial mass dampers (IMDs) have attracted extensive attentions since their properties are similar to NSDs. It has been theoretically predicted that superior supplemental damping can be generated for a taut cable with an IMD. This paper aims to theoretically investigate the impact of the cable sag on the efficiency of an IMD in controlling stay cable vibrations, and experimentally validate superior vibration mitigation performance of the IMD. Both the numerical and asymptotic solutions were obtained for an inclined sag cable with an IMD installed close to the cable end. Based on the asymptotic solution, the cable attainable maximum modal damping ratio and the corresponding optimal damping coefficient of the IMD were derived for a given inertial mass. An electromagnetic IMD (EIMD) with adjustable inertial mass was developed to investigate the effects of inertial mass and cable sag on the vibration mitigation performance of two model cables with different sags through series of first modal free vibration tests. The results show that the sag generally reduces the attainable first modal damping ratio of the cable with a passive viscous damper, while tends to increase the cable maximum attainable modal damping ratio provided by the IMD. The cable sag also decreases the optimum damping coefficient of the IMD when the inertial mass is less than its optimal value. The theoretically predicted first modal damping ratio of the cable with an IMD, taking into account the sag generally, agrees well with that identified from experimental results, while it will be significantly overestimated with a taut-cable model, especially for the cable with large sag.

Key factors that ensure competitiveness of modular unit include consistent high quality and connection condition that ensures high structural performance while minimizing the overall scale of the on-site process. However, it is difficult to evaluate the structural performance of the connection of modular unit, and its structural analysis and design method can be different depending on the connection to its development, which affects the seismic performance of its final design. In particular, securing the seismic performance is the key to designing modular systems of mid-to-high-rise structure. In this paper, therefore, the seismic performance of the modular system with bracket-typed fully restrained moment connections according to stiffness and the shapes of various connection members was evaluated through experimental and analytical methods. To verify the seismic performance, a cyclic loading test of the connection joint of the proposed modular system was conducted. As a result of this study, theoretical values and experimental results were compared with the initial stiffness, hysteresis behavior and maximum bending moment of the modular system. Also, the connection joint was modeled, using the commercial program ANSYS, which was then followed by finite element analysis of the system. According to the results of the experiment, the maximum resisting force of the proposed connection exceeded the theoretical parameters, which indicated that a rigid joint structural performance could be secured. These results almost satisfied the criteria for connection bending strength of special moment frame listed on KBC2016.

사람의 자세추정(Human pose estimation)은 사람의 관절 키포인트를 추출하여 자세를 추정하는 방법이다. 폐색현상(Occlusion)이 발생하면, 사람의 관절이 가려지므로 관절 키포인트 추출 성능이 낮아진다. 폐색현상은 총 3가지로 행동할 때 스스로 가려짐, 다른 사물에 의해 가려짐과 배경에 의해 가려짐으로 크게 나뉜다. 본 논문에서는 폐색현상 증강기법을 활용하여 효과적인 자세추정방법을 제안한다. 자세추정방법이 지속적으로 연구되어왔지만, 자세추정방법의 가려짐 현상에 관한 연구는 상대적으로 부족한 상태이다. 이를 해결하기 위해 저자는 사람의 관절을 타겟팅하여 의도적으로 가리는 데이터 증강기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서의 실험 결과는 의도적으로 폐색현상 증강기법을 활용하면 폐색현상에 강인하며 성능이 올라간 것을 보여준다.

초고성능콘크리트(UHPC)의 개발은 재료 역학적 특성면에서 기존의 일반 및 고성능 콘크리트에 비해 월등한 역학적 성능을 발휘하는 것으로 인식되고 있으나, 이에 관한 시공성 및 구조적 안전성에 대해서는 향후 많은 수정 및 보완 작업을 필요로 함이 예상되어진다. 이 연구에서는 UHPC를 적용한 프리캐스트 접합부의 전단 거동 특성의 분석을 위해 접합부 사이에 전단키를 설치한 경우의 접합 방식 및 횡구속 응력에 따른 전단 거동 특성 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과 에폭시 접합을 이용한 UHPC 접합의 경우가 현장 타설을 모사한 일체 타설의 경우보다 파괴 하중 및 전단 저항 응력면에서 우수함을 보였고, 횡구속 응력의 증가에 의해 전단 응력은 증가되지만, 횡구속 응력과 전단 응력 사이의 상호 효과에 따른 최적 임계 횡구속 응력이 존재하고 있음을 제시할 수 있었다.
