In the midst of accelerating wars around the world, unmanned robot technology that can guarantee the safety of human life is emerging. ERP-42 is a modular platform that can be used according to the application. In the field of defense, it can be used for transporting supplies, reconnaissance and surveillance, and medical evacuation in conflict areas. Due to the nature of the military environment, atypical environments are predominant, and in such environments, the platform's path followability is an important part of mission performance. This paper focuses on reducing the minimum turning radius in terms of improving path followability. The minimum turning radius of the existing 2WS/2WD in-wheel platform was reduced by increasing the torque of the independent driving in-wheel motor on the rear wheel to generate oversteer. To determine the degree of oversteer, two GPS were attached to the center of the front and rear wheelbases and measured. A closed-loop speed control method was used to maintain a constant rotational speed of each wheel despite changes in load or torque.

This study was conducted to develop a method to generate daily maximum and minimum temperatures using monthly data. We analyzed 30-year daily weather data of the 23 meteorological stations in South Korea and elucidated the parameters for predicting annual trend (center value ($\hat{U}$), amplitude (C), deviation (T)) and daily fluctuation (A, B) of daily maximum and minimum temperature. We use national average values for C, T, A and B parameters, but the center value is derived from the annual average data on each stations. First, daily weather data were generated according to the occurrence of rainfall, then calibrated using monthly data, and finally, daily maximum and minimum daily temperatures were generated. With this method, we could generate daily weather data with more than 95% similar distribution to recorded data for all 23 stations. In addition, this method was able to generate Growing Degree Day(GDD) similar to the past data, and it could be applied to areas not subject to survey. This method is useful for generating daily data in case of having monthly data such as climate change scenarios.

This paper suggests polynomial time algorithm for cutwidth minimization problem that classified as NP-complete because the polynomial time algorithm to find the optimal solution has been unknown yet. To find the minimum cutwidth CW_f(G)=max_𝜈∈_VCW_f(𝜈)for given graph G=(V,E),m=｜V｜, n=｜E｜, the proposed algorithm divides neighborhood N_G[𝜈_i] of the maximum degree vertex 𝜈_i in graph G into left and right and decides the vertical cut plane with minimum number of edges pass through the vertex 𝜈_i firstly. Then, we split the left and right N_G[𝜈_i] into horizontal sections with minimum pass through edges. Secondly, the inner-section vertices are connected into line graph and the inter-section lines are connected by one line layout. Finally, we perform the optimization process in order to obtain the minimum cutwidth using vertex moving method. Though the proposed algorithm requires O(n²) time complexity, that can be obtains the optimal solutions for all of various experimental data

This study analyzed firefighter's actual wearing condition of turnout gear The results are as fellows: 1. When a firefighter is employed, Korea applies only the minimum of firefighters stature and weight but America applies both the minimum and the maximum. The choice of size is highly related with stature more than chest circumference. 2. The satisfaction degree of thermal barrier is very low, 3%. They used rubber gloves rather than heatproof gloves. This is more serious in small country like 'up', 'myun' than in cities. For laundering, they used sprinkling method with firefighting hose. Firefigthers hoped that their clothes could be classified tv the seasons and fire places. 3. frefighter had high unsatisfaction with the movement of hands and leges in the aspect of movement adjustability, air permeability, weight, body temperature regulation, and breathing in the hygenic aspect, fire resistance, thermal resistance property, water proof, chemical reactivity and electrical conductivity. Thev were also unsatisfied with water proof boots and gloves. They were generally satisfied with helmets but firefighters over 90kg of weight were rather unsatisfied. 4. The satisfaction degree for physical fitness was very low and the items with which they were not satisfied depend on physical features. 5. To develop turnout gear, they wanted changes in design, material and size. Reflection tape need to be replaced with high quality products and they wanted the use of velcro and zipper in fastening system.

TIn this paper, we propose a novel fuzzy stretching method that adopts a triangle type fuzzy membership function to control the highest and lowest brightness limit dynamically. As an essential procedure to enhance the brightness contrast, stretching is an important procedure in color image processing. While popular Ends-in Search stretching method should be provided fixed minimum and maximum brightness threshold from experience, our proposed method determines them dynamically by fuzzy membership functions. The minimum and maximum limit is determined by computing the lowest and highest pixel value according to the membership degree of our designed triangle type membership function. The experiment shows that the proposed method result in far less skewed histogram than those of Ends-in Search stretching thus successfully verifies its effectiveness.

Let k $\geq$ 1 be an integer, and let G be a 2-connected graph of order n with n $\geq$ max{7, 4k+1}, and the minimum degree $\delta(G)$ $\geq$ k+1. In this paper, it is proved that G has a fractional k-factor excluding any given edge if G satisfies max{$d_G(x)$, $d_G(y)$} $\geq$ $\frac{n}{2}$ for each pair of nonadjacent vertices x, y of G. Furthermore, it is showed that the result in this paper is best possible in some sense.

The effect of vertical vibration of a beam is significantly influenced by higher modes of vibration. Therefore, a beam can be modeled using several elements must De used to represent a vibrating beam. As a result, analysis of a space framed structure for vertical vibration requires increase number of elements leading to more complicated model with many degree of freedom which requires large amount of computing resources for dynamic analysis. An efficient analysis method for vertical vibration of space framed structures are proposed in this paper which is presented in three method. The first method is to determine minimum nodes that shall be used to obtain dynamic response with the vertical vibration. Secondly, matrix condensation methods are introduced to reduce the computation efforts used to perform dynamic analysis and the selection of primary degree-of-freedom is proposed. The third method is of using the mass participation factor for the selection of primary degree-of-freedom.

In this paper, output precision characteristic of planar 3 and 6 degree-of-freedom parallel mechanisms are investigated. The 6 degree-of-freedom mechanism is formed by adding an additional small link along with an actuated joint in each of serial subchain of the 3 degree-of-freedom mechanism. First, kinematic analysis for two parallel mechanisms are performed, then their first-order kinematic characteristics are examined via isotropic index and minimum velocity transmission ratio of the mechanisms. It can be concluded that the planar 6 degrees-of-freedom parallel mechanism can be very effectively employed as a high-precision macro-micro manipulator from the analysis results when its link lengths are properly chosen.

In this paper, a novel hardware architecture of the LT codec is presented where non-BP based decoding algorithm is applied. Novel LT codec architecture is designed with an efficient degree distribution unit using Verilog HDL. To perform permutation operation, different initial valued or time shifted counters have been used to get pretty well permutations and an effect of randomness. The codec will take 128 bits as input and produce 256 encoded output bits. The simulation results show expected performances as the implemented distribution and the original distribution are pretty same. The proposed LT codec takes 257.5 cycle counts and $2.575{\mu}s$ for encoding and decoding instead of 5,204,861 minimum cycle counts and 4.43s of the design mentioned in the previous works where iterative soft BP decoding was used in ASIC and ASIP implementation of the LT codec.

A graph G is called to be a 2-degree integral subgraph of a q-tree if it is obtained by deleting an edge e from an integral subgraph that is contained in exactly q - 1 triangles. An added-vertex q-tree G with n vertices is obtained by taking two vertices u, v (u, v are not adjacent) in a q-trees T with n - 1 vertices such that their intersection of neighborhoods of u, v forms a complete graph $K_{q}$, and adding a new vertex x, new edges xu, xv, $xv_{1},\;xv_{2},\;{\cdots},\;xv_{q-4}$, where $\{v_{1},\;v_{2},\;{\cdots},\;v_{q-4}\}\;{\subseteq}\;K_{q}$. In this paper we prove that a graph G with minimum degree not equal to q - 3 and chromatic polynomial $$P(G;{\lambda})\;=\;{\lambda}({\lambda}-1)\;{\cdots}\;({\lambda}-q+2)({\lambda}-q+1)^{3}({\lambda}-q)^{n-q-2}$$ with $n\;{\geq}\;q+2$ has and only has 2-degree integral subgraph of q-tree with n vertices and added-vertex q-tree with n vertices.
