In this paper we present numerical methods fur computations of nonequilibrium hypersonic flow of air around bodies including chemical reaction effects and present numerical result of the flow over concave corners. We developed implicit finite difference method to overcome numerical difficulties with the lack of resolution behind the shock and near the body. Using our method we were able to find details of the flow properties near the shock and body and were able to continue the computation of the flow for a long distance from the corner of the body.

This paper introduces a multilevel item-response-theory (IRT) model as a unifying model for hypothesis testing using legislative voting data. This paper shows that a probit or logit model is a special type of multilevel IRT model. In particular, it is demonstrated that, when a probit or logit model is applied to multiple votes, it makes unrealistic assumptions and produces incorrect coefficient estimates. The advantages of a multilevel IRT model over a probit or logit model are illustrated with a Monte Carlo experiment and an example from the U.S. House. Finally, this paper provides a practical guide to fitting this model to legislative voting data.

The polar parabolic equation method (Polar PE) which introduces a series of "cascaded" boundary fitting coordinates into the parabolic equation method has been verified as a good numerical method for atmospheric sound propagation over a curved surface and hills. Polar PE is applied here to underwater sound propagation over a sea mountain assuming locally reacting boundary sea bottom and pressure release water surface for the boundary conditions. Calculations are presented for underwater propagation over a 450 m high sea mountain. Feasibility of Polar PE application for underwater sound propagation over a smooth mountain is discussed.

With the advent of high speed digital signal processing chips, new digital techniques have been introduced to the hearing instrument. This advanced hearing instrument circuitry has led to the need or and the development of new fitting approach. A number of different fitting approaches have been developed over the past few years, yet there has been little agreement on which approach is the "best" or most appropriate to use. However, when we develop not only new hearing aid, but also its fitting method, the intensive subject-based clinical tests are necessarily accompanied. In this paper, we present an objective method to evaluate and predict the performance of hearing aids without the help of such subject-based tests. In the hearing impairment simulation (HIS) algorithm, a sensorineural hearing impairment model is established from auditory test data of the impaired subject being simulated. Also, in the hearing impairment simulation system the abnormal loudness relationships created by recruitment was transposed to the normal dynamic span of hearing. The nonlinear behavior of the loudness recruitment is defined using hearing loss unctions generated from the measurements. The recruitment simulation is validated by an experiment with two impaired listeners, who compared processed speech in the normal ear with unprocessed speech in the impaired ear. To assess the performance, the HIS algorithm was implemented in real-time using a floating-point DSP.

The Skinned Multi-Person Linear Model (SMPL) is the most widely used parametric 3D Human Model optimized and learned from CAESAR, a 3D human scanned database created with measurements from 3,800 people living in United States in the 1990s. We point out the lack of racial diversity of body types in SMPL and propose K-SMPL that better represents Korean 3D body shapes. To this end, we develop a fitting algorithm to estimate 2,773 Korean 3D body shapes from Korean body measurement data. By conducting principle component analysis to the estimated Korean body shapes, we construct K-SMPL model that can generate various Korean body shape in 3D. K-SMPL model allows to improve the fitting accuracy over SMPL with respect to the Korean body measurement data. K-SMPL model can be widely used for avatar generation and human shape fitting for Korean.

The purpose of this paper is recovery of the profiles of the wave speed and density from the reflection coefficients of the continuously layered acoustic medium with depth dependent density and wave speed at various angles of incidence. A downward continuation or layer stripping algorithm, which recursively reconstructs the medium in increasing depth and then strips away the effects of the reconstructed portion of the medium, is the method with fewer computations than integral equation procedures. This paper implements an improved downward continuation algorithm that uses reflection data at several angles of incidence and performs a least-squares fitting at each depth. The result is a considerable improvement in performance over the usual downward continuation algorithm.

An empirical nonlinear model with intrinsic nonlinear elements has been newly developed to predict the RF nonlinear characteristics of nano-scale bulk MOSFET accurately over the wide bias range. Using an extraction method suitable for nano-scale MOSFET, the bias-dependent data of intrinsic model parameters have been accurately obtained from measured S-parameters. The intrinsic nonlinear capacitance and drain current equations have been empirically obtained through 3-dimensional curve-fitting to their bias-dependent curves. The modeled S-parameters of 60nm MOSFET have good agreements with measured ones up to 20GHz in the wide bias range, verifying the accuracy of the nano-scale MOSFET model.

This paper developed motifs through the use of images of masks with which the Korean innate consciousness of aesthetics is expressed. The motifs were applied to fashion items. This paper investigated the concept, origin and types of traditional masks through the existing literature. Using the computer graphic programs of Illustrator and Photoshop CS2, three basic motifs were set from the images of the nobleman, Bune of Hahoi Tal and Byeongsan Tal. Each motif was extended into two motifs by changing shape and color. For the basic motif design, this study sought to express contemporary images, suitably for each fashion item, while maintaining the basic shape of the masks and their traditional images. In addition, this study set the concept of the design so that could be accepted by various age groups. For the design of handkerchiefs, a rotating array, involving enlargement, reduction, repetition, and the gradation of motifs, as well as a diagonal symmetric array, and all-over patterns were developed. The T-shirt design created here was divided into a half-sleeve box type, a round neckline sleeveless type, a V-neckline close-fitting sleeveless type, and a V-neckline close-fitting cap sleeve type. For the design of necklaces, OLED or LED, which are considered as a future display type, was used. Additionally, the production of an entertainment styled new atmosphere is proposed.

Diamond turning machines for manufacture of precision optics require deliberate diagnosis to ensure that all the machine elements are properly operating, kinematically, dynamically and thermally, to produce demanded work qualities. One effective way is to directly inspect topographical features of work surfaces that have been carefully generated with prescribed machining conditions intended to exaggerate faulty consequences of any ill-operating machine elements. In this research, a very-large-scale Phase measuring interferometric system that has been developed for years at Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology is used to fulfill the metrological requirements fur the surface analysis. A special stitching technique is used to extend the measuring range, which integrates all the patches that are separately sampled over the whole surface while moving the stage. Then, the measured surface profile is analyzed to releated the machine error sources. For this, zernike polynomial fitting is used together with the wavelet filter and the fourier transform. Experimental results showed that the suggested technique in this study is very effective in diagnosing actual diamond turning machines

The use of ceramic inserts in hot extrusion dies offers significant technical and economic advantages over other forms of manufacture. In this paper, process simulation and stress analysis are thus combined during the design, and a data exchange program has been developed that enables optimal design of the dies taking into account the elastic deflections generated in shrink fitting the die inserts and that caused by the stresses generated in the process. The shrink fit analysis has been performed that enables optimal design of the dies taking into account the elastic deflections which generated in shrink fitting the die inserts and that caused by the stresses generated in the process and by using DEFORM software for process analysis. This data can be processed as load input data for a finite element die-stress analysis. Process simulation and stress analysis are thus combined during the die design. The stress analysis of the dies is used to determine the stress conditions on the ceramic insert by considering contact and interference effects under both mechanical and thermal loads. The results are compared with the experimental ones for verification.
