The purpose of this study is to analyse the main factors and attributes of psychological evaluation to noise. For this purpose, a psycho-acustic experiment was conducted by using the method of rating scale. 52 subjects were participated in the experiment, 20 stimuli were presented to subjects in random order with 23 adjectives. As a result of factor analysis, it was found that the primary factors for evaluating the quality of noise subjectively are four factors of unpleasantness, intensity, irregularity, and sharpness. And, as a result of MDPREF(multi-dimensional analysis of preference data), it was found that the noise sources including the factors of unpleasantness, intensity, and irregularity are related to the sounds of hammering in construction field, car horn, road traffic, idling of car, and printing by computer printer, and the factor of sharpness are the sounds of car siren, claps of thunder, car horn, and snowstorm etc.

The trends of recent passenger ships are becoming speedy and luxury style to enhance comfortableness in cabin. In order to meet these trend, ship designer has to improve the sound quality as well as to reduce the sound pressure level in cabins. In this paper, the trend of noise and sound quality of real high-speed coastal passenger ships are measured and analyzed, while running on their regular courses. The sound quality parameters such as loudness, roughness, fluctuation strength, and sharpness are evaluated by Zwicker loudness calculation. In addition, we try to find sensitive critical frequency band for the improving sound quality by using signal editing. Finally, the expected effective design methods are proposed to designer for the improving sound quality of passenger ships.

Morphology of contemporary city streets is composed of overlapping infrastructures corresponding to the new street within the established organization, contemporary system, future circumstance, and population. As well, two overlaid organizations and morphological, historical, social and physical development lead to sharp acute algle(triangular) site, and the architecture in this site has a restriction on the availability of the internal space and the external design due to outside shape sharpness. We want to have a positive effect on the internal and external design of the architecture in the future by categorization of the shape and processing characteristics of the acute angle corner of the trilateral site. The characteristics and design categorization shown in this case study are as follows. Constitution a unique and independent form, lead streets and shape a exclusive image of the landscape, alleviate sharpness by configuring a acute angle point as a plane, use void to give reserve character, replace roundness for companionability to induce ambience in the road, embrace the characteristics of the site and create internal spaces and functions, emphasize the characteristics of each stairs, retain of uniqueness and highlight the characteristics of a vertical elements.

To remove unnecessary background from tooth X-ray images and enhance the sharpness of tooth and gum images, image processing techniques including contrast adjustment and histogram equalization are used. The introduction of two methods for detecting the boundary of the tooth and gum region and separating the tooth and gum from the background. In both cases, the background of the tooth X-ray images could be removed as a result, improving the quality of the images. The proposed method improves MTF (Modulation Transfer Function), an image performance indicator, as a result of measuring MTF. The original image's spatial frequency ranged from 4.73 to 11.40 lp/mm at the 10% response, whereas the proposed image's spatial frequency ranged from 10.90 to 11.85 lp/mm, giving uniformly enhanced results. In contrast, tooth and gums could not be completely separated from the background using Apple's Lift subject from background function.

The study investigated the effect of geometric structures of nano-patterned surfaces, such as peak sharpness, height, width, aspect ratio, and spacing, on mechano-bactericidal properties. Here, in silico models were developed to explain surface interactions with Escherichia coli. Numerical solutions were performed based on the finite element method and verified by the artificial neural network method. An E. coli cell adhered to the nano surface formed elastic and creep deformation models, and the cells' maximum deformation, maximum stress, and maximum strain were calculated. The results determined that the increase in peak sharpness, aspect ratio, and spacing values increased the maximum deformation, maximum stress, and maximum strain on E. coli cell. In addition, the results showed that FEM and ANN methods were in good agreement with each other. This study proved that the geometrical structures of nano-patterned surfaces have an important role in the mechano-bactericidal effect.

본 논문에서는 상호 보완 관계에 있는 초고해상도 기법과 선명도 증강 기법을 통합하여 전체적인 화질을 향상시키는 새로운 초고해상도 기법을 제안한다. 먼저 학습 과정을 통해 선명도 증강의 세기에 따라 다중의 사전을 구성하고, 고 해상도 영상을 합성할 때 영상의 국부 영역 특성에 따라 서로 다른 사전을 적응적으로 참조하도록 한다. 또한, 추가적인 후처리 과정을 통하여 저해상도 영상에 내재되어 있는 아티팩트가 초고해상도 처리에 의해 증폭되는 현상을 감소시켜 화질을 극대화한다. 모의실험 결과에 따르면 제안한 알고리즘은 객관적 화질 측면에서 비교 대상이 되는 알고리즘들에 비하여 우수함을 보였다. 특히, 영상의 선명도를 나타내는 CPBD 측면에서 bi-cubic 대비 0.3, Song 기법과 Fan 기법 대비 0.1 높게 나타났다. 또한, 주관적 화질 측면에서 영상의 질감 영역 및 경계 영역의 화질이 향상된 결과를 보이는 것을 확인하였다. 제한된 방법은 기존 방법 대비 17% 정도의 메모리만을 필요로 하므로 구현 관점에서도 장점이 있음을 알 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 전산유체역학 프로그램을 이용하여 순환형공기분급기 내부유동 및 입자거동을 해석하였다. 주날개 및 분급날개의 회전속도 조건을 변화시키며 이에 따른 등급분급효율, 절단입경 및 분급첨예도 변화를 예측하였다. 주날개의 회전속도를 제어함으로써, 절단입경을 증가시킬 수 있었으나, 오염토양 분급에 적용할 수 있을 정도의 정확도를 확보할 수 없었다. 반면, 분급날개의 회전속도를 증가시킴으로써, 절단입경을 감소시킬 수 있었으며, 보다 정확하게 입자를 선별할 수 있었다. 결과적으로 주날개와 분급날개를 동시에 사용할 경우, 높은 분급첨예도 결과를 보이며, 우수한 분급특성을 유지할 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 CD, DVD의 기록 및 재생기에 사용되는 광 픽업 장치에서의 빔의 특성을 좋아지게 하기 위하여 DOE(회절광학소자)를 무족화(apodization)와 첨예화의 두 가지 방법으로 설계하여 최적화 알고리즘으로 심플렉스법을 적용하여 기존 광 픽업 장치와 비교 분석하였다. 분석된 결과 무족화에 있어서 기존 광 픽업 장치와 비교하여 2차 피크와 3차 피크는 39%, 63%로 억제되어 현저한 효과를 볼 수 있었고, 첨예화에서는 1차 피크의 폭이 4.8% 줄일 수 있었다. 그러나 이 역시 2차 피크가 커지는 부작용이 동반되는데 광 픽업 장치가 2차 피크의 영향이 적은 환경에서는 지터특성의 개선이 있을 것으로 기대하지만 1차와 2차 피크가 복합적으로 영향을 미치는 경우에는 광시스템에 대한 면밀한 고려하면, 원형창의 경우 단일 슬릿에 비하여 2차 피크의 밝기가 37%에 불과하여 실제의 산업현장에서 2차 피크를 무시하는 것을 고려하면 4.8%의 폭을 줄여 지터 특성이 개선되었다.
