Objective: The objective of this study was to determine internal structure spectral profile of by-products from coffee processing that were affected by added-microorganism fermentation duration in relation to truly absorbed feed nutrient supply in ruminant system. Methods: The by-products from coffee processing were fermented using commercial fermentation product, consisting of various microorganisms: for 0 (control), 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. In this study, carbohydrate-related spectral profiles of coffee by-products were correlated with their chemical and nutritional properties (chemical composition, total digestible nutrient, bioenergy values, carbohydrate sub-fractions and predicted degradation and digestion parameters as well as milk value of feed). The vibrational spectra of coffee by-products samples after fermentation for 0 (control), 7, 14, 21, and 28 days were determined using a JASCO FT/IR-4200 spectroscopy coupled with accessory of attenuated total reflectance (ATR). The molecular spectral analyses with univariate approach were conducted with the OMNIC 7.3 software. Results: Molecular spectral analysis parameters in fermented and non-fermented by-products from coffee processing included structural carbohydrate, cellulosic compounds, non-structural carbohydrates, lignin compound, CH-bending, structural carbohydrate peak1, structural carbohydrate peak2, structural carbohydrate peak3, hemicellulosic compound, non-structural carbohydrate peak1, non-structural carbohydrate peak2, non-structural carbohydrate peak3. The study results show that added-microorganism fermentation induced chemical and nutritional changes of coffee by-products including carbohydrate chemical composition profiles, bioenergy value, feed milk value, carbohydrate subfractions, estimated degradable and undegradable fractions in the rumen, and intestinal digested nutrient supply in ruminant system. Conclusion: In conclusion, carbohydrate nutrition value changes by added-microorganism fermentation duration were in an agreement with the change of their spectral profile in the coffee by-products. The studies show that the vibrational ATR-FT/IR spectroscopic technique could be applied as a rapid analytical tool to evaluate fermented by-products and connect with truly digestible carbohydrate supply in ruminant system.

The number of matched peaks (NMP) is estimated as the spectral similarity measure in tandem mass spectral library searches of small molecules. In the high resolution mode, NMP provides the same reliable identification as in the case of a common dot-product function. Corresponding true positive rates are ($94{\pm}3$) % and ($96{\pm}3$) %, respectively.

This study identifies efficient earthquake intensity measures (IMs) for seismic performances and fragility evaluations of the reactor containment building (RCB) in the advanced power reactor 1400 (APR1400) nuclear power plant (NPP). The computational model of RCB is constructed using the beam-truss model (BTM) for nonlinear analyses. A total of 90 ground motion records and 20 different IMs are employed for numerical analyses. A series of nonlinear time-history analyses are performed to monitor maximum floor displacements and accelerations of RCB. Then, probabilistic seismic demand models of RCB are developed for each IM. Statistical parameters including coefficient of determination (R²), dispersion (i.e. standard deviation), practicality, and proficiency are calculated to recognize strongly correlated IMs with the seismic performance of the NPP structure. The numerical results show that the optimal IMs are spectral acceleration, spectral velocity, spectral displacement at the fundamental period, acceleration spectrum intensity, effective peak acceleration, peak ground acceleration, A95, and sustained maximum acceleration. Moreover, weakly related IMs to the seismic performance of RCB are peak ground displacement, root-mean-square of displacement, specific energy density, root-mean-square of velocity, peak ground velocity, Housner intensity, velocity spectrum intensity, and sustained maximum velocity. Finally, a set of fragility curves of RCB are developed for optimal IMs.

질량 분석기의 질량 스펙트럼에서 높은 피크값을 갖는 스펙트럼에 인접한 낮은 피크값의 스펙트럼은 서로 연결되어 분리가 어렵다. 이러한 스펙트럼간 겹칩은 질량 스펙트럼의 검출 성능과 해상도를 저하시키는 원인이 된다. 본 논문에서는 잔류 가스 분석기의 질량 스펙트럼 검출 성능과 피크값의 정확도를 향상시키는 방법을 제안한다. 이온 신호블록의 특성에 따른 유형 판별과 피크위치오차에 대한 사전 보정은 인접한 스펙트럼에 연결된 낮은 피크값의 스펙트럼 분리 및 검출할 수 있다. 제안된 방법의 성능을 확인하기 위해 질량분석기에서 얻은 실제 이온 신호를 사용하여 제안한 방법과 기존 방법을 비교하였다.

인간의 집중도 변화를 평가하기 위하여 피험자에게 암산과제를 부가하고 뇌파신호를 전두엽(Fpl, Fp2)으로부터 측정하였다. alpha band의 최대 peak 주파수 변화를 compressed spectral array를 사용하여 관찰하고 theta(3.5-7 Hz), alpha(7.5-13.0 Hz), beta(13.5-20 Hz) band 전력을 정규화하여 분포를 구했다. 평가결과, 집중도가 높아짐에 따라 alpha band의 최대 peak 주파수는 낮은 주파수 대에서 높은 주파수대로 이동하고, slow alpha band의 전력은 감소, fast alpha band의 전력은 증가하였다. 또한 뇌파신호의 각 band 전력의 분포는 theta band는 증가, alpha band는 감소하였다.

This paper proposes a long-term prediction of offshore structures in ocean waves. All short-term statistics is generated by the simulation for all the combinations of significant wave heights and spectral peak periods. The simulation has been tested first on linear system, whose analytic solution is known, to verify if the simulation works accurately. Then the scheme was applied to the nonlinear system. This paper demonstrated that the proposed scheme could be an efficient tool in estimating the response of offshore structures.

본 논문에서는 미상 디지털 통신 신호의 심볼율을 검출하기 위한 기술들을 소개하고 그 성능을 비교해 본다. 심볼율은 delay and multiplier, square law 또는 Hilbert 변환을 이용한 방법 등의 회로를 통과한 신호의 전력스펙트럼 밀도에서 검출해 낼 수 있다. 이러한 회로들을 통과한 신호를 이산 푸리에 변환(discrete Fourier Transform) 한 결과에서 많은 스펙트럼 라인과 복수개의 피크(peak)가 검출되고 그 중 첫 번째 피크가 심볼율을 나타내는 주파수에 위치하게 된다. 만약 해당 심볼율이 아닌 다른 주파수상의 스펙트럼 라인의 값이 첫 번째 피크보다 크다면 심볼율은 잘못 검출될 것이다. 그러므로 첫 번째 피크의 값과 가장 큰 주변 스펙트럼 라인의 값의 비를 이용하여 심볼율 검출기의 성능을 비교하였다. MPSK 변조 방식에서는 -20dB 이하의 Es/N0에서는 delay and multiplier가 가장 우수한 성능을 보였고 -20dB 이상의 Es/N0에서는 Hilbert 변환 방식이 더 좋은 성능을 나타내었다. 또한 QAM 변조 방식에서 delay and multiplier 회로는 낮은 Es/N0에서는 심볼율을 검출할 수 없으며 square law 방식은 MPSK 변조 방식에서 보다 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.

This paper proposes methods for improving mass spectral resolution for a gas chromatograph mass spectrometer. The slope signs of the 1st and 2nd fitting functions for the ion signal block of each mass index are obtained, and the unnecessary element signals in the ion signal block are removed. The spectrum can be obtained by obtaining the second-order fitting function of the reconstructed ion signal block using only the effective ion signals. In addition, the resolution of the mass spectrum can be improved by correcting the error caused by the shift of the spectral peak position. To verify the performance of the proposed methods, computer simulations were performed using the actual ion signals obtained from the GC-MS system under development. Simulation results show that the proposed method is valid.

The two major problems related to the blood flow in replaced prosthetic heart valve are thrombus formation and hemolysis. Reliability of prosthetic valve is very important because its failure means the death of patient. There are many factors affecting the valvular failures and their representatives are mechanical failure and thrombosis, so early noninvasive detection is essentially required. The purpose of this study is to detect the various thromboses formation by using acoustic signal acquisition and its spectral analysis on the frequency domain. We made the thrombosis models using Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and they are thrombosis model on the disc, around the sewing ring and fibrous tissue growth across the orifice of valve. Using microphone and amplifier, we measured the acoustic signal from the prosthetic valve, which is attached to the pulsatile mock circulation system. A/D converter sampled the acoustic signal and the spectral analysis is the main algorithm for obtaining spectrum. Then the spectrum of normal and 5 different kinds of abnormal valve were obtained. Each spectrum waveform shows a primary and secondary peak. The secondary peak changes according to the thrombus model. To quantitatively distinguish the frequency peak of the normal valve from that of the thrombosed valves, analysis using a neural network was employed. Acoustic measurement has been used as a noninvasive diagnostic tool and is thought to be a good method for detecting possible mechanical failure or thrombus.
