A pendubot is a representative example of an underactuated system that has fewer actuators than the degree of freedom of the system. In this study, the characteristics of the pendubot are first reviewed; each part is then designed using Solidworks by dividing the pendubot into three parts: the base frame, first link frame, and second link frame. These three parts are then imported into the Simulink environment via a STEP file format, which is the standard protocol used in data exchange between CAD applications. A 3D model of the pendubot is then constructed using Simscape, and the usefulness of the 3D model is validated by a comparison with a dynamic equation derived using the Lagrangian formulation. A linearized model around an upright equilibrium position is finally obtained, and a sliding mode controller is designed based on the linear quadratic regulator. Simulation results showed that the designed controller effectively maintained upright balance of the pendubot in the presence of disturbance.

In this research, the behavior of tube-in-tube BRBs (TiTBRBs) has been investigated. In a typical TiTBRB, the yielding core tube is located inside the outer restraining one to dissipate energy through extensive plastic deformation, while the outer restraining tube remains essentially elastic. With the aid of FE analyses, the monotonic and cyclic behavior of the proposed TiTBRBs have been studied as individual brace elements. Subsequently, a detailed finite element model of a representative single span-single story frame equipped with such a TiTBRB has been constructed and both monotonic and cyclic behavior of the proposed TiTBRBs have been explored under the application of the AISC loading protocol at the braced frame level. With the aid of backbone curves derived from the FE analyses, a simplified frame model has been developed and verified through comparison with the results of the detailed FE model. It has been shown that, the simplified model is capable of predicting closely the cyclic behavior of the TiTBRB frame and hence can be used for design purposes. Considering type of connection detail used in a frame, the TiTBRB member which behave satisfactorily at the brace element level under cyclic loading conditions, may suffer global buckling due to the flexural demand exerted from the frame to the brace member at its ends. The proposed TiTBRB suit tubular members of offshore structures and the application of such TiTBRB in a typical offshore platform has been introduced and studied in a single frame level using detailed FE model.

오늘날 멀티미디어 정보의 양이 매우 빠른 속도로 증가함에 따라 멀티미디어 데이타베이스에 대한 효율적인 관리는 더욱 중요한 의미를 가지게 되었다. 게다가 영상과 같은 비 문자형태의 데이타에 대한 사용자들의 내용기반 검색욕구 증가로 인해 비디오 인덱싱에 대한 관심은 더욱 고조되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 우선적으로 분할된 샷 경계면에서 추출된 대표 프레임과 정지 영상 데이타베이스로부터 유사 영상과 유사 대표 프레임을 검색할 수 있는 환경을 제공한다. 우선적으로 영상에 의한 질의는 기존에 주로 사용되어온 색상 히스토그램방식을 탈피하여 본 논문에서 제안하는 CS와 GS방식을 이용하여 색상 및 방향성 정보도 고려하도록 설계하였다. 또한 얼굴에 의한 질의는 대표 프레임으로부터 얼굴 영역을 추출해 내고 얼굴의 경계선 값 및 쌍 직교 웨이블릿 변환에 의해 얻어진 2개의 특징값을 이용하여 유사 인물이 포함된 대표 프레임을 검색해 내도록 설계하였다. Abstract There is a rapid increase in the use of digital video information in recent years, it becomes more important to manage multimedia databases efficiently. There is a big concern about video indexing because users require content-based image retrieval. In this paper, we first propose query-by-image system environment which allows to retrieve similar images from the chosen representative frames or images from the image databases. This algorithm considers not only the discretized color histogram but also the proposed directional information called CS & GS method. Finally, we designe another query environment using query-by-face. In this system , user selects a people in the representative frame browser and then system extracts a face region from that frame. After that system retrieves similar representative frames using 2 features, edge information and biorthogonal wavelet transform.

Shaking table tests of the seismic behavior of a steel frame structure model were performed. The purpose of these tests was to estimate the effects of a near-fault ground motion and a scenario earthquake based on a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for nuclear power plant structures. Three representative kinds of earthquake ground motions were used for the input motions: the design earthquake ground motion for the Korean nuclear power plants, the scenario earthquakes for Korean nuclear power plant sites, and the near-fault earthquake record from the Chi-Chi earthquake. The probability-based scenario earthquakes were developed for the Korean nuclear power plant sites using the PSHA data. A 4-story steel frame structure was fabricated to perform the tests. Test results showed that the high frequency ground motions of the scenario earthquake did not damage the structure at the nuclear power plant site; however, the ground motions had a serious effect on the equipment installed on the high floors of the building. This shows that the design earthquake is not conservative enough to demonstrate the actual danger to safety related nuclear power plant equipment.

This paper emphasizes the use of CFT columns in frame structures subjected to strong horizontal forces and shows that the efficiency of using CFT columns is increased when the plastic design approach is adopted. Because the plastic design approach is based on redistribution of the force of the internal member, a double node for the rotational degrees of freedom, where the adjacent two rotational degrees of freedom can be connected by a non-dimensional spring element, is designed and implemented into the formulation. In addition, an accompanying criterion is considered in order to make it possible to describe the continuous moment redistribution in members connected to a nodal point up to a complete plastic state. The efficiency of CFT columns is reviewed in comparison with RC columns in terms of the cost and the resistance capacity, as defined by a P-M interaction diagram. Three representative frame structures are considered and the obtained results show that the most efficient and economical design can be expected when the use of CFT columns is considered on the basis of the plastic design, especially when a frame structure is subjected to significant horizontal forces, as in a high-rise building.

주요 화면은 보다 적은 양의 데이터를 사용해서 비디오가 갖는 시각적 내용물의 변화량을 효과적으로 표현하기 위해 많이 사용된다. 이와 같은 비디오 표현 방식은 대역폭이나 저장 용량이 제한된 상황에 적합하다. 이 경우 대역폭이나 저장 용량에 따라 주요 화면의 개수를 조절하는 능력은 주요 화면 선택 기법의 중요한 필요 사항 중 하나다. 본 논문에서는 주요 화면의 개수가 제한 조건일 때 순차적인 주요 화면을 찾는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 기법은 먼저 원하는 개수의 초기 주요 화면을 미리 선택하고 이들이 대표하는 서로 중복되지 않는 시구간을 정한 후 반복 과정을 통해 주요 화면의 위치와 시구간의 크기를 조절하면서 왜곡 값이 최소가 되도록 주요 화면과 시구간을 찾는다. 실험 결과 제안하는 방법이 선택하는 주요 화면들은 율-왜곡 관점에서 기존의 방법보다 우수하고 인간의 시각 인지와도 일치함을 알 수 있었다.

Purpose - This study examines the effects of the influence strategies on sales representative and headquarter trust, and investigates how sales representative trust plays a mediating role in the relationship between influence strategies and headquarter trust. For these purposes, a structural model which consists of several constructs was developed. In this model, influence strategies that consist of relational influence strategies (information exchange, recommend, promise) and mandatory influence strategies (legal plea, request, threat) were proposed to affect the sales representative trust and in turn, increase the headquarter trust. Thus, this study proposed that sale representative trust plays a core mediating role in the relationship between relational and mandatory influence strategies and headquarter trust in B2B food materials distribution context. Research design, data, and methodology - For these purposes, the authors collected the data from 208 B2B specialized complex agents. We used the 2,200 B2B specialized complex agents which trade with CJ, Ottogi, and Daesang firms and supply food materials to restaurant, school cafeteria, supermarket and traditional market as a sample frame. Once we identified 330 B2B specialized complex agent owners, CEOs, and/or Directors who had agreed to participate in this study, we dropped off a questionnaire at each B2B specialized complex agent and explained the purpose of this study. The survey was conducted from October 1, 2015 to December 15, 2015. A total of 230 questionnaires were collected. Of these collected questionnaires, 28 questionnaires excluded since they had not been fully completed. The data were analyzed using frequency test, reliability test, measurement model analysis, and structural equation modeling with SPSS and SmartPLS 2. Results - First, information exchange, recommendation, and promise of relational influence strategies had positive effects on sales representative trust. The threat of mandatory influence strategies had a negative effect on sales representative trust, but legal plea and request did not have a significant effect on sales representative trust. Second, information exchange and recommendation of relational influence strategies had positive effects on headquarter trust, but promise did not. Also, legal plea, request, and threat of mandatory influence strategies did not have a significant effect on headquarter trust. Third, this findings show that sales representative trust plays a partial mediator between information exchange and headquarter trust, and threat and headquarter trust, and a full mediator between promise and headquarter trust, and recommendation and headquarter trust. Conclusions - The aim of this study was to examine the effects how diverse dimensions of relational and mandatory influence strategies relate to sales representative trust and headquarter trust. To do so, we integrated the influence strategies and the trust transfer theory to hypothesize that various influence strategies increase sales representative and headquarter trust. The findings of this study suggest that headquarter firms should establish and enforce proper influence strategies guidelines to make clear what proper actions sales representatives should implement in relationship with B2B specialized complex agents. Also, relational and mandatory influence strategies must be regarded as a long-term and ongoing strategy that eventually build a long-term orientation with B2B specialized complex agents and guarantee a company's sustainable growth and success.

The important requirements for stereo video retargeting are threefold: keeping temporal coherence, preventing depth distortion, and minimizing shape distortions of the retargeted video. To meet these requirements, the left and right video sequences are divided into groups of frames (GoFs), where the GoF is a basic unit for the seam carving and we assign a set of fixed seams for all frames within the GoF. To determine the fixed seams for each GoF, we need to find the GoF boundary in the video first. Then, the representative frame for each GoF is generated by considering the spatial saliency and temporal coherence. Also, the confidence of the stereoscopic correspondence between the left and right frames is considered to prevent depth distortion.
