It is shown that two step power transformation is more efficient for the normalization of frequency distribution with the coefficient of skewness of zero in comparison with others including SMEMAX and power transformations. It is confirmed that the design low flows calculated using power and two step power transformations used in this study are generally nearer to the observed data as compared with those of SMEMAX transformation at all return periods in the applied watersheds of the Kum, Naktong and Yongsan rivers in Korea.

The objective of this paper is to study two dimensional steady gravitational waves on the interface between two immiscible, inviscid and incompressible fluids bounded above by a horizontal rigid boundary and below by a rigid step. A KdV equation for the first order perturbation in an asymptotic expansion can appear. However the coefficient of the KdV theory fails in that case. By a unified asymptotic method, we overcome this difficulty and derive a modified KdV equation with forcing. We find homogeneous steady solutions and present numerical solutions.

수정된 SIMPLE법과 VOF의 결합으로 predictor-two step corrector-VOF라고 불리는 새로운 알고리즘이 주조 시 용탕 충전과정을 해석하기 위해 개발되었다. 운동량보존으로부터 유도된 새 2단계 속도 경계조건 처리법은 용탕의 자유표면을 추적하는 데 사용되었다. 본 연구에서는 2개의 예제 계산을 통해 계산정확도와 속도에 대한 Courant 수의 영향을 살펴보았다. 그 결과 적당한 Courant 수의 증가는 계산 정확도의 감소 없이 용탕 계산 속도를 향상시킬 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 만족할 만한 계산 정확도와 효율이 이 알고리즘의 실제 제품 해석을 통해 얻어졌다.

An effective paging strategy is essential for improving the utility of radio channels. This paper proposes a two-step paging strategy which involves using base station paging agents to page a single cell at each paging. An analytical model is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed strategy. The proposed strategy is compared with the traditional simultaneous paging strategy and a recent proposal using the base station paging agents. The numerical results showed that the proposed strategy proficiently reduces paging cost on radio channels compared with other paging strategies.

A new bandwidth reduction algorithm is developed by combining the two-step approach and the frontal ordering scheme. In the two-step approach, finite elements are numbered first, followed by nodal numbering based on the graph theory. The concept of wave front is incorporated into it to control the cardinality of the set of adjacent nodes and the bandwidth to be achieved. They are controlled systematically by rational selection of next candidates with the purpose of getting the smaller bandwidth efficiently. Eighteen meshes are renumbered and the results are compared with those of well-known algorithms. The results demonstrate the efficiency and the reliability of the proposed algorithm.

A one-step, two-site enzyme immunoassay was developed for measuring human alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in serum and amniotic fluid using monoclonal antibodies (McAb) by eliminating the high-dose hook effect. Three McAbs that recognize different epitopes were selected among 16 different clones on the basis of epitope mapping, two for immobilization and one for horseradish peroxidase conjugation. This one-step immunoassay system is more convenient and rapid compared to a conventional two-step sandwich immunoassay system. It did not exhibit the hook effect to around 2.7 mg/ml of AFP, which is probably one of the highest concentrations of AFP in the serum. The dose-response curve of the system was linear to 500 mg/ml of AFP and the system could differentiate as low as 1 mg/ml of AFP The intra- and inter-assay variations were in an acceptable range; 95~104% and 97~105% respectively Its correlation with other commercial systems was around 95%.

This paper considers the problem of state estimation in linear continuous-time systems with multi-sensor environment and observation uncertainties. We propose two suboptimal filtering algorithms for these types of systems. The filtering algorithms consist of two steps: The local optimal Kalman estimates are computed at the first step. And, these local estimates are lineally fused at the second step. The implementation of the two-step filtering algorithms needs a lower memory demand than the optimal Kalman and adaptive Lainiotis-Kalman filters. In consequence of parallel structure of the proposed filters, the parallel computers can be used for their design. The examples exhibit the effect of common noise on the performance of fusion of the local Kalman estimates based on observations from different sensors and in the presence of uncertainties.

In this work, back bias effects in the program of the silicon-oxide-nitride-oxide-silicon (SONOS) cell using two-step pulse sequence, are investigated. Two-step pulse sequence is composed of the forward biases for collecting the electrons at the substrate terminal and back bias for injecting the hot electrons into the nitride layer. With an aid of the back bias for electron injection, we obtain a program time as short as 600 ns and an ultra low-voltage operation with a substrate voltage of -3 V.

The present study is aimed to investigate flow characteristics of Two dimensional backward-facing step by numerical approach. A convection conservative difference scheme based upon SOLA algorithm is used for the solution of the two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations to simulate the laminar, transitional and turbulent flow conditions at which the experimental data can be available for the backward-facing step. The twenty kinds of Reynolds number are used for the calculations. In an effort to demonstrate that the reported solutions are dependent on the mesh refinement, computations are performed on seven different meshes of uniformly increasing refinement. Also to investigate the result of inflow dependence, two kinds of the inflow profile are chosen for the laminar flow. As criterion of benchmarking the result of numerical simulation, reattachment length is used for the selected Reynolds numbers.

In this paper, an approach of automatically finding and modifying the most appropriate orthogonal array (GO) is suggested and applied to a new structural optimization procedure with two steps. GO is motivated by the situation where finding a proper orthogonal array from the tables in the literature is difficult or impossible. Now the Taguchi method is made available for various numbers of variables and levels. In the two-step structural optimization, the Taguchi method equipped with GO and a shape optimization using the finite differencing method is consecutively applied. The existence or non-existence of an element can be taken as a factor level and this feature is utilized finding the best topology from a set of potential topologies suggested from the user's expertise. This greatly enhances applicability and one can expect a better result than the case in which each step is applied independently because these steps are complementary each other.
