For determining motion/structure of a 3-D rigid object from point correspondences over two perspective views, a linear algorithm was developed in Refs. 3 and 4. This algorithm fails when the 3-D points under observation satisfy certain geometrical constraints, as demonstrated in Refs. 7 and 8. In the present paper, we show that the linear algorithm can be resurrected in these degenerate cases by adding additional lower order polynomial constraints to original equations.

Motion reduction of an offshore structure at resonant frequency is essential for avoiding critical damage to the topside and mooring system. A damping plate has a distinct advantage in reducing the motion of a floating structure by increasing the added mass and the damping coefficient. In this study, the heave motion responses of a circular cylinder with an impermeable and a permeable damping plate attached at the bottom of the cylinder were investigated thru a model test. The viscous damping coefficients for various combinations of porosity were obtained from a free-decay test by determining the ratio between any pair of successive amplitudes. Maximum energy dissipation occurred at a porous plate with a porosity P = 0.1008. Experimental results for regular and irregular waves were compared with an analytical solution by Cho (2011). The measured heave RAO and spectrum reasonably followed the trends of the predicted values. A significant motion reduction at resonant frequency was pronounced and the heaving-motion energy calculated by the integration of the area under the heave motion spectrum was reduced by more than 75% by the damping plate. However, additional energy dissipation by eddies of strong vorticity and flow separation inside a porous damping plate was not found in the present experiments.

본 연구에서는 다양한 감쇠판을 원통형 부유체에 부착하고 수치 시뮬레이션을 통해 원통형 부유체의 heave RAO 및 고유주기의 변화를 고찰하였다. 먼저 감쇠판을 부착하지 않은 원통형 부유체의 heave RAO 및 고유주기를 파악하였고, 원통형 부유체에 부착한 감쇠판의 크기와 형상을 바꿔가며 각 경우에 대한 heave RAO 및 고유주기를 평가하였다. 수치 시뮬레이션 결과, 감쇠판의 모든 면적에 대해서 감쇠판을 부착한 원통형 부유체의 고유주기는 증가하였고, 감쇠판의 크기가 1.30D부터 입사파의 피크주기에서 heave RAO는 감소하였다. 감쇠판의 모든 면적에 대해서 원형 감쇠판이 Y자형 감쇠판보다 고유주기가 길게 나타나며, 고유주기의 차이는 감쇠판의 면적이 커질수록 그 차이가 커졌다. 운동응답 스펙트럼 계산 결과, 원형 감쇠판과 Y자형 감쇠판을 부착한 원통형 부유체의 heave 운동이 입사파의 피크주기에서 현저하게 감소하였다. 또한 원형 감쇠판을 부착한 원통형 부유체의 고유주기가 Y형 감쇠판을 부착한 경우보다 입사파의 피크 주기에서 더 멀리 이동하였다.

Installing vibration control devices in the structure rises as a solution instead of increasing structural strength considering construction cost. Especially, viscoelastic dampers show excellent vibration control performance at low cost and are easy to install in existing structures compared with other control devices. Therefore, cost-effectiveness of structure with viscoelastic dampers needs to be evaluated. Previous cost-effectiveness evaluation method for the seismically isolated structure(Koh et al., 1999;2000)is applied on the building structure with viscoelastic dampers, which combines optimal design and cost-effectiveness evaluation for seismically isolated structures based on minimum life-cycle cost concept. Input ground motion is modeled in the form of spectral density function to take into account acceleration and site coefficients. Damping of the viscoelastic damper is considered by modal strain energy method. Stiffness of shear building and shear area of viscoelastic damper are adopted as design variables for optimization. For the estimation of failure probability, transfer function of the structure with viscoelastic damper for spectral analysis is derived from the equation of motion. Results reveal that cost-effectiveness of the structure with viscoelastic dampers is relatively high in how seismic region and stiff soil condition.

This experimental study investigated the flow characteristics for regular waves passing a rectangular floating structure in a two-dimensional wave tank. The particle image velocimetry (PIV) was employed to obtain the velocity field in the vicinity of the structure. The phase average was used to extract the mean flow and turbulence property from repeated instantaneous PIV velocity profiles. The mean velocity field represented the vortex generation and evolution on both sides of the structure. The turbulence properties, including the turbulence length scale and the turbulent kinetic energy budget were investigated to characterize the flow interaction between the regular wave and the structure. The results shaw the vortex generated near the structure corners, which are known as the eddy-making damping or viscous damping. However, the vortex induced by the wave is longer than the roll natural period of the structure, which presents the phenomena opposing the roll damping effect; that is, the vortex may increase the roll motion under the wave condition longer than the roll natural period.

움직임 추정은 영상 부호화 시스템에서 큰 비중을 차지하는 부분으로, 실시간 동작을 위해서는 효율적인 구조를 필요로 한다. 따라서 H.264 전체 시스템을 위한 움직임 추정기 블록의 구현은 부호화 과정을 고속으로 수행할 수 있도록 별도의 전용 하드웨어 모듈로 설계하는 것이 바람직하다. 본 논문에서는 많은 연산량을 효율적으로 줄일 수 있도록 병렬 처리를 바탕으로 움직임 추정 감지 블록, 41개의 SAD(Sum of Absolute Difference)값 계산 블록, 최소의 SAD값 계산과 움직임 벡터 생성 블록을 제안하고자 한다. 움직임 추정 감지 블록과 최소의 SAD값 계산기에서는 선계산(pre-computation) 방법을 적용함으로써, 입력 Switching Activity를 줄여 고속 구현이 가능하도록 하였으며, 움직임 추정 감지 블록과 41개의 SAD값 계산 블록에서 가장 많은 부분을 차지하는 가산기 구조를 일반적으로 사용되는 Ripple Carry Adder 대신에 Carry Skip Adder를 적용함으로써, Adder Tree 구조를 고속으로 처리할 수 있도록 하였다. 또한 외부에서 탐색 영역 제어와 같은 주요 변수를 쉽게 제어할 수 있도록 하여, 하드웨어 구조의 효율성을 높였다. 시뮬레이션 및 FPGA 검증 결과, 움직임 추정기의 임계 경로를 발생시키는 MED블록에서 일반적인 구조를 적용했을 때보다 19.89%의 Delay 감소 효과를 얻을 수 있었다.

A series of model tests was performed to evaluate the survivability of an articulated tower-type buoy structure under harsh environmental conditions. The buoy structure consisted of three long pipes, a buoyancy module, and top equipment. The scale model was made of acrylic pipe and plastic with a scale ratio of 1/22. The experiments were carried out at the ocean engineering basin of KRISO. The performance of the buoy structure was investigated under waves only and under combined environmental conditions from sea state (SS) 5 to 7. A nonlinear time-domain numerical simulation was conducted using the mooring analysis program OrcaFlex. The survivability of the buoy was analyzed based on three factors: the pitch motion, submergence of the top structure, and anchor reaction force. The model test results were directly compared to the results of numerical simulations. The effects of the sea state and combined environment on the performance of the buoy structure were investigated.

High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) suffers from high computational complexity due to its quad-tree structure in motion estimation (ME). This paper exposes an adaptive search range decision algorithm for accelerating HEVC integer-pel ME on GPU which estimates the optimal search range (SR) using a MAP (Maximum A Posteriori) estimator. There are three main contributions; First, we define the motion feature as the standard deviation of motion vector difference values in a CTU. Second, a MAP estimator is proposed, which theoretically estimates the motion feature of the current CTU using the motion feature of a temporally adjacent CTU and its SR without any data dependency. Thus, the SR for the current CTU is parallelly determined. Finally, the values of the prior distribution and the likelihood for each discretized motion feature are computed in advance and stored at a look-up table to further save the computational complexity. Experimental results show in conventional HEVC test sequences that the proposed algorithm can achieves high average time reductions without any subjective quality loss as well as with little BD-bitrate increase.

We propose a video denoising method based on Kalman filter to reduce the noise in video sequences. Firstly, with the strong spatiotemporal correlations of neighboring frames, motion estimation is performed on video frames consisting of previous denoised frames and current noisy frame based on intensity and structure tensor. The current noisy frame is processed in temporal domain by using motion estimation result as the parameter in the Kalman filter, while it is also processed in spatial domain using the Wiener filter. Finally, by weighting the denoised frames from the Kalman and the Wiener filtering, a satisfactory result can be obtained. Experimental results show that the performance of our proposed method is competitive when compared with state-of-the-art video denoising algorithms based on both peak signal-to-noise-ratio and structural similarity evaluations.

We present lateral actuated piezoelectric actuator using U-shaped PZT strip and lever structure for the RF switch application. In the previous study of RF switch, they used horizontal contact switch fabricated by thin film metals. However, thin film metals could not generate large contact force due to low stiffness. In this work, we suggest lateral contact switch which makes large contact force by increasing stiffness. In addition, we use PZT actuator for the high force actuation. Generally actuator using thin film PZT moves to the vertical direction due to the neutral axis shift. Therefore we need lateral motion generation mechanism based on the thin film PZT actuator. In order to increase lateral motion of thin film PZT actuator, we use U-shaped PZT actuator using residual stress control. Also, thin film PZT actuator can generate very small lateral motion of 120${\times}$10$^{-6}$ ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/V for d$_{31}$ mode, thus we suggest lever structure to increase stroke amplification. From the experimental study, fabricated PZT actuator shows maximum lateral displacement of 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and break down voltage of the thin film PZT actuator is above 16V.
