  • Closed cracks are difficult to detect using conventional ultrasonic testing because most incident ultrasound passes completely through these cracks. Nonlinear ultrasound inspection using sub-harmonic frequencies a promising method for detecting closed cracks. To implement this method, a sub-harmonic phased array (PA) is proposed to visualize the length of closed cracks in solids. A sub-harmonic PA generally consists of a single transmitter and an array receiver, which detects sub-harmonic waves generated from closed cracks. The PA images are obtained using the total focusing method (TFM), which (with a transmitter and receiving array) employs a full matrix in the observation region to achieve fine image resolution. In particular, the receiving signals are measured using a laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV) to collect PA images for both fundamental and sub-harmonic frequencies. Oblique incidence, which is used to boost sub-harmonic generation, inevitably produces various surface waves that contaminate the signals measured in the receiving transducer. Surface wave interference often degrades PA images severely, and it becomes difficult to read the closed crack's position from the images. Various methods to prevent or eliminate this interference are possible. In particular, enhancing images with signal processing could be a highly cost-effective method. Because periodic patterns distributed in a PA image are the most frequent interference induced by surface waves, spatial frequency filtering is applicable for removing these waves. Experiments clearly demonstrate that the spatial frequency filter improves PA images.

  • 기존의 비디오 워터마킹 알고리즘은 실시간 처리가 대부분 불가능하였는데, 가장 큰 이유는 압축에 강인한 알고리즘을 개발하 기 위해 삽입과 추출과정이 계산량이 많은 주파수 공간에서 이루어지기 때문이다 보통 기존의 방법들은 비디오 압축처리 중에 워터마크를 삽입하는 과정을 첨가하여 실시간 처리를 지원토록 해왔다. 그러나, 본 논문에서는 공간영역과 주파수영역에서 모두 처리하는 과정을 거치도록 하여 실시간 처리가 가능한 새로운 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 방법은 먼저 워터마크를 퓨리에 주파수 영역에서 변환하여 생성한 후, 이를 공간영역으로 역변환 한 후. 공간 영역에서 비디오에 직접 삽입한다. 이 과정은 계산량이 딴이 소비되는 주파수 영역에서의 작업을 따로 실행하지 않아 실시간 처리가 가능해진다. 또한 이 방법은 비디오 스트림에도 적용 가능하며 MPEG압축과 기하학적 변화등의 다양한 공격에도 매우 강인한 결과를 보여준다.

  • 장면 영상 속의 분사 영역에는 다른 부분과는 구분되는 특징적인 공간주파수가 있다. 이 특징은 직관적이며 또한 유용한 정보로서의 가치가 있다. 본 논문에서는 장면 영상에서 수평 텍스트를 찾는 방법을 제안한다. 수직 및 수평 방향으로 걸친 edge 픽셀의 빈도수와 푸리에 변환에 의한 기본 주파수의 두 가지 특징을 이용한 방법이다. 두 가지 특징을 독립적으로 활용하여 그 결과를 결합하거나 연속하여 적용하여 원하는 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 이와 같은 특징은 대체로 언어 또는 문자에 무관함을 확인하였다. 이에 추가하여 Hough 변환을 이용한 장면 속의 사각형을 탐색하였다. 여러 사람들에게 유용한 정보는 보통 강한 색상대비로 눈에 잘 띄는 색깔의 사각형 안에 씌어있는 경우가 보통이므로 사자형의 탐색함으로써 보다 효과적으로 문자를 탐색할 수 있다.

  • Given the widespread use of the Finite Element Method in strength analysis, automatic mesh generation is an important component in the computer-aided design of parts and assemblies. For a given resolution of geometric accuracy, the purpose of mesh generators is to discretize the continuous model of a part within this error limit. Sticking to this condition often produces many small elements around small features in spite that these regions are usually of little interest and computer resources are thus wasted. Therefore, it is desirable to selectively suppress small features from the model before discretization. This can be achieved by low-pass filtering a CAD model. A spatial function of one dimension higher than the model of interest is represented using the Fourier basis functions and the region where the function yields a value greater than a prescribed value is considered as the extent of a shape. Subsequently, the spatial function is low-pass filtered, yielding a shape without the small features. As an undesirable effect to this operation, all sharp corners are rounded. Preservation of sharp corners is important since stress concentrations might occur there. This is why the LPF (low-pass filtered) model can not be directly used. Instead, the distances of the boundary elements of the original shape from the LPF model are calculated and those that are far from the LPF model are identified and removed. It is shown that the number of mesh elements generated on the simplified model is much less than that of the original model.

  • In this investigation, a wavelet transform analysis was used to decompose beta-radiographic formation images into spectral and spatial components. Conventional formation analysis may use spectral analysis, based on Fourier transformation or variance vs. zone size, to describe the grammage distribution of features such as flocs, streaks and mean fiber orientation. However, these methods have limited utility for the analysis of statistically stationary data sets where variance is not uniform with position, e.g. paper machine CD profiles (especially those that contain streaks). A continuous wavelet transform was used to analyze formation data arrays obtained from radiographic imaging of handsheets and cross machine paper samples. The response of the analytical method to grammage, floc size distribution, mean fiber orientation an sensitivity to feature localization were assessed. From wavelet analysis, the change in scale of grammage variation as a function of position was used to demonstrate regular and isolated differences in the formed structure.

  • Studying the spatial distribution in coherent fields such as turbulence and turbulence-induced force is important to model and evaluate turbulence-induced forces and response of structures in the turbulent flows. Turbulence field-based coherence function is commonly used for the spatial distribution characteristic of the turbulence-induced forces in the frequency domain so far. This paper will focus to study spectral coherent structure of the turbulence and induced forces in not only the frequency domain using conventional Fourier transform-based coherence, but also temporo-spectral coherence one in the time-frequency plane thanks to wavelet transform-based coherence for better understanding of the turbulence and force coherences and their spatial distributions. Effects of spanwise separations, bluff body flow, flow conditions and Karman vortex on coherent structures of the turbulence and induced pressure, comparison between turbulence and pressure coherences as well as intermittency of the coherent structure in the time-frequency plane will be investigated here. Some new findings are that not only the force coherence is higher than the turbulence coherence, the coherences of turbulence and forces depend on the spanwise separation as previous studies, but also the coherent structures of turbulence and forces relate to the ongoing turbulence flow and bluff body flow, moreover, intermittency in the time domain and low spectral band is considered as the nature of the coherent structure. Simultaneous measurements of the surface pressure and turbulence have been carried out on some typical rectangular cylinders with slenderness ratios B/D=1 (without and with splitter plate) and B/D=5 under the artificial turbulent flows in the wind tunnel.

  • 본 연구에서는 코히어런스 분석을 통하여 시각집중 기간 동안 시간 변화에 대한 뇌기능과 관련된 공간-주파수간 연관관계를 해석하였다. 집중관련 시각자극 실험 데이터를 통해 ${\theta}$${\alpha}$ 대역에서 서로 다른 두피 위치간 위상연관변화를 확인하였다. 좌우 전두엽, 전두엽과 두정엽 간 뇌유발전위는 P100, N200지점에서 위상동조를 보였으며, 전두엽과 후두엽 간 뇌유발전위는 시각 처리 정보가 반영되는 P300지점에서 위상동조를 보였다. 고정된 길이의 창을 이용하는 단구간 푸리에 변환에 비하여 연속 웨이블릿 변환은 모 웨이블릿의 파라미터 조정을 통한 다중해상도 분석이 가능하였다. 따라서 연속 웨이블릿 변환을 이용한 코히어런스 결과가 시간변화에 대한 뇌유발전위의 공간-주파수간 연관관계의 변화를 확인하는데 유효함을 확인하였다. 비 집중 자극수행에 대해서는 위상동조 현상이 나타나지 않았다.

  • Acquisition is to detect the presence of the GPS signal. Once the signal is detected, the estimated frequency and code phase are passed to a tracking loop to demodulate the navigation data. In order to detect the weak signal, multiple length of data integration is always needed. In this paper, we present five different acquisition approaches based on circular correlation and Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), using coherent as well as non-coherent integration techniques for the multiple length of collected GPS satellite signal. Moreover a general approach of determining the acquisition threshold is introduced based on noise distribution which has been proved effective, and independent of the hardware. In the end of this paper, the processing speed and acquisition gain of each method are illustrated, compared, and analyzed. The results show that coherent approach is much more time consuming compared to noncoherent approaches, and in the case of multiple length of data integration from 2ms to 8ms, the processing times consumed by the fastest non-coherent acquisition method are only 25.87% to 1.52% in a single search, and 34.76% to 1.06% in a global search of those in the coherent acquisition. However, coherent acquisition also demonstrates its better performance in the acquisition gain, and in the case of 8ms of data integration it is 4.23 to 4.41 dB higher than that in the non-coherent approaches. Finally, an applicable scheme of combining coherent and non-coherent acquisition approaches in the development of a real-time Software GPS receiver in the University of Tokyo is provided.

  • Nowadays the aerial photos is using to get the information around our spatial environment and it increases by geometric progression in many fields. The aerial photos need in a simple object such as cartography and ground covey classification and also in a social objects such as the city plan, environment, disaster, transportation etc. However, the shadow, which includes when taking the aerial photos, makes a trouble to interpret the ground information, and also users, who need the photos in their field tasks, have restriction. This study, for removing the shadow, uses the single image and the image without the source of image and taking situation. Also, this study present clustering algorism based on HIS color model that use Hue, Saturation and Intensity, especially this study used I(intensity) to extract shadow area from image. And finally by filtering in Fourier frequency domain creates the intrinsic image which recovers the 3-D color information and removes the shadow.

  • We propose a now watermarking scheme that can be used to embed multiple bits and also resilient to geometrical transforms such as scaling, rotation, and cropping, based on off - axis holographic watermark that allows multiple watermark recovery without original content(cover image). The holographic watermark is that Fourier transformed digital hologram is embedded into cover image in the spatial domain. The proposed method has not only increased robustness with a stronger embedding but also imprescriptibility of the watermark in the evaluation process. To compare with the convention기 scheme, the spread spectrum, we embedded and recovered maximum 1,024 bits that consist of binary number over PSNR(peak signal-to-noise ratio) 39dB. And also, we computed robustness with BER(bit error rate) corresponding the above attack
