현재 널리 쓰이는 고밀도 플라즈마 장치의 식각 시뮬레이션은 식각 패턴으로는 level set method이며 바이어스가 인가된 sheath model로는 Riley sheath model 이 보편적으로 받아들여지고 있다. 이러한 식각 시뮬레이션은 RF(Radio Frequency) sheath로부터 가속된 이온이 단위 입체각당 특정 지점에 이온 플럭스 분포함수, 이온 에너지 분포함수와, 중성종의 수송모델로 etch rate을 결정하는 과정과 level set method을 이용하여 식각 형태를 계산하는 과정으로 구성되어있다. 본 연구는 식각 형태 계산 이전의 단계로서 $Ar^+,\;Cl_2{^+},\;Cl^+$이온의 유동속도와 밀도를 장치의 radial방향으로 불균일하게 가정하였고, 가정한 값으로 이온 플럭스와 에너지 플럭스에 대한 영향을 알아보았다.

In this paper, we propose a stable active contour based tracking method which utilizes the bimodal segmentation technique to obtain a background color diminished image frame. The proposed method overcomes the drawback of the Mansouri model which is liable to fall into a local minimum state when colors appear in the background that are similar to the target colors. The Mansouri model has been a foundation for active contour based tracking methods, since it is derived from a probability based interpretation. By stabilizing the model with the proposed speed function, the proposed model opens the way to extend probability based active contour tracking for practical applications.

In this paper, we propose a new object tracking algorithm using deformed template and Level-Set theory, which is robust against background variation, object flexibility and occlusion. The proposed tracking algorithm consists of two steps. The first step is an estimation of object shape and location, on the assumption that the transformation of object can be approximately modeled by the affine transform. The second step is a refinement of the object shape to fit into the real object accurately, by using the potential energy map and the modified Level Set speed function. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can track non-rigid objects with large variation in the backgrounds.

With the development of computational fluid dynamics (CFD), studies on shipbuilding and maritime issues including free-surface wave flow have been conducted. Although the volume of fluid (VOF) and level-set methods are widely used to study the free-surface wave flow, disadvantages exist. In particular, it takes a long time to obtain solutions. In this study, a free-surface capturing code is developed for ship and offshore structures. The developed code focuses on accuracy and computation time. Open source CFD libraries, termed OpenFOAM, are used to develop the code. The results obtained using the developed code are compared with those obtained using interFoam. The results show that the developed code could be used to capture the free-surface wave flow without numerical diffusion; moreover, the accuracy of the developed code is largely the same as that of interFoam.

This paper presents a coupling scheme of LSM(Level Set Method) and Poisson's equation to analyze the dynamic performance of electromagnetic system with moving parts. Remeshing process is necessary to analyze the dynamics of moving object using finite element method. LSM is useful for analysis of moving objects or propagating models in time varying system. In this paper, we proposed the material setting technique of mover using level set function. To validate the algorithm, we adopted the simple hinged electromagnet model with moving arm. The results of simulation are reasonable as expect.

This paper reports an effort to develop 3D tooth visualization system from CT sequence images as a part of the non-destructive evaluation suitable for the simulation of endodontics, orthodontics and other dental treatments. We focus on the segmentation and visualization for the individual tooth. In dental CT images teeth are touching the adjacent teeth or surrounded by the alveolar bones with similar intensity. We propose an improved level set method with shape prior to separate a tooth from other teeth as well as the alveolar bones. Reconstructed 3D model of individual tooth based on the segmentation results indicates that our technique is a very conducive tool for tooth visualization, evaluation and diagnosis. Some comparative visualization results validate the non-destructive function of our method.

Internal waves are computed using a ghost fluid method on an unstructured grid. Discontinuities in density and dynamic pressure are captured in one cell without smearing or oscillations along a multimaterial interface. A time-accurate incompressible Navier-Stokes/Euler solver is developed based on a three-point backward difference formula for the physical time marching. Artificial compressibility is introduced with respect to pseudotime and an implicit method is used for the pseudotime iteration. To track evolution of an interface, a level set function is coupled with the governing equations. Roe's flux difference splitting method is used to calculate numerical fluxes of the coupled equations. To get higher order accuracy, dependent variables are reconstructed based on gradients which are calculated using Gauss theorem. For each edge crossing an interface, dynamic pressure is assigned for a ghost node to enforce the continuity of total pressure along the interface. Solitary internal waves are computed and the results are compared with other computational and experimental results.

An accurate adaptive mesh refinement based on the CIP method is proposed and it is applied to solve the two dimensional advection equations. In this method, the level set function is employed to refine and merge the computation cells. To enhance the accuracy of the solution, the spatial discretization is made by the CIP method. The CIP method has many advantages such as the third order accuracy, less diffusivity, and shape conserving. The mathematical formulation and numerical results are also described. To verify the efficiency, accuracy, and capability of the proposed algorithim, two dimensional rotating slotted cylinder and idealized frontogenesis are numerically simulated by the present scheme. As results, it is confirmed that the present method gives an efficient, reasonable solution in the advection equation.

본 논문에서는 효율적인 2차 오차 함수를 이용하여 입자 기반에서 EMC(Extended Marching Cubes) 알고리즘을 구현할 수 있는 새로운 알고리즘을 제안한다. Smoothing 커널(Kernels)을 통해 계산한 입자 평균 위치에서 레벨셋(Level-set)을 계산해 스칼라장을 구축한다. 그리고 난 뒤 SPH(Smoothed particle hydrodynamics)기반의 커널을 통해 밀도, 입자 평균 위치를 계산한다. 스칼라장을 이용해 등가 곡면(Isosurface)을 찾고 음함수로 표현된 표면을 구성한다. SPH 커널을 공간에서 미분하면 공간상의 어느 위치에서나 기울기를 계산할 수 있고, 이를 통해 얻어진 법선벡터를 이용하여 일반적인 EMC나 DC(Dual contouring)에서 사용하는 2차 오차 함수를 효율적으로 설계한다. 결과적으로 제안하는 방법은 메쉬와 같이 연결정보다 없는 입자 기반 데이터에서도 EMC 알고리즘을 구현하여 볼륨(Volume) 손실을 줄이고, 복잡한 음함수 표면을 표현할 수 있게 한다.

In this paper, we study the feasibility of receiver diversity for application to downlink cellular networks, where low-energy devices are equipped with information decoding and energy harvesting receivers for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer. We compare several options that are based on selection combining and maximum ratio combining, which provide different implementation complexities. By capitalizing on the Frechet inequality, we shed light on the advantages and limitations of each scheme as a function of the transmission rate and harvested power that need to be fulfilled at the low-energy devices. Our analysis shows that no scheme outperforms the others for every system setup. It suggests, on the other hand, that the low-energy devices need to operate in an adaptive fashion, by choosing the receiver diversity scheme as a function of the imposed requirements. With the aid of stochastic geometry, we introduce mathematical frameworks for system-level analysis. We show that they constitute an important tool for system-level optimization and, in particular, for identifying the diversity scheme that optimizes wireless information and power transmission as a function of a sensible set of parameters. Monte Carlo simulations are used to validate our findings and to illustrate the trade-off that emerge in cellular networks with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer.
