Turbulent flow analysis around a wind turbine blade was performed to evaluate the power performance of offshore wind turbine. Fluent package was utilized to solve the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations in non-inertial rotating coordinates. The realizable k-$\varepsilon$ model was used for turbulence closure and the grid system combining structured and unstructured grids was generated. In the first, lift and drag forces of 2-D foil section were calculated and compared with existing experimental data for the validation. Then torque and thrust of the wind turbine blade having NACA 4-series sections were calculated with fixed pitch angle and rpm. Tip speed ratio was varied by changing wind speed. In the next, three kinds of end plate were attached at the tip of blade in order to increase the power of the wind turbine. Among them the end plate attached at the suction side of the blade was found to be most effective. Furthermore, performance analysis with tilt angle and rake was also performed.

디지털 영상물에 대한 저작권을 보호하기 위해 저작권자의 고유한 영상을 기존 디지털 영상에 삽입하는 것을 워터 마킹이라고 부른다. 삽입된 워터 마크가 효과적으로 사용되기 위해서는 영상의 다양한 왜곡이나 변형에도 강건할 수 있게 그 강도가 강해야 하며, 동시에 워터 마크가 삽입된 영상의 왜곡을 식별할 수 없게 그 강도를 약하게 하여야 한다. 비가시성을 유지한 채 가능한 한 강한 워터마크를 삽입하는 것은 워터마크를 적용 하는 데 매우 중요한 문제이다. 대부분의 워터 마크 알고리듬에서 삽입될 워터 마크의 강도는 원영상과 워터마크 영상간의 물리적인 차이에 근거하여 계산된 특정 값으로 고정한 채, 이 값을 모든 영상에 동일하게 적용하고 있다. 인간의 경우 자극의 탐지는 주변 영상의 밝기나 대비 등 여러 요소에 의해 변화되므로 디지털 영상에 삽입된 워터 마크의 탐지도 영상의 특징에 따라서 변화될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 원영상으로부터 세 수준의 밝기와 세 수준의 대비를 갖는 기본 영상들을 만든 후, 기본 영상에서 탐지될 수 있는 워터 마크의 강도가 변화되는 지를 살펴보았다. 연구 결과 영상의 밝기가 밝아질수록, 대비가 커질수록 지각될 수 있는 워터 마크의 강도는 더 커지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 회귀분석을 통해 영상의 밝기와 대비에 근거하여 삽입될 워터 마크의 강도를 결정할 수 있는 회귀 식을 만들어 내었다. 이러한 회귀 식은 주어진 영상의 통계 치에 근거하여 워터 마크 강도를 적응적으로 변화시킬 수 있는 알고리듬을 개발하는 데 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

To determine the static buckling loads and evaluate the structural performance of slender steel pipe-arches such as for greenhouse structures, a series of modal tests using a fixed hammer and roving sensors was carried out, by providing no load, then a range of vertical loads, on an arch rib in several steps. More attention was given to an internal arch where vertical and horizontal auxiliary members are not placed, unlike an end arch. Modal parameters such as natural frequencies, mode shapes and damping ratios were extracted using more advanced system identification methods such as PolyMAX (Polyreference Least-Squares Complex Frequency Domain), and compared with those predicted by commercial FEA (Finite Element Analysis) software ANSYS for various conditions. A good correlation between them was achieved in an overall sense, however the reduction of natural frequencies due to the existence of preaxial loads was not apparent when the vertical load level was about up to 38% of its resistance. Some difficulties related to the field testing and parameter extraction for a very slender arch, as might arise from the influences of neighboring members, are carefully discussed.

This paper describes research on intelligent game character through performance enhancements of physics engine in computer games. The algorithm that recognizes the physics situation uses momentum back-propagation neural networks. Also, we present an experiment and its results, integration methods that display optimum performance based on the physics situation. In this experiment on integration methods, the Euler method was shown to produce the best results in terms of fps in a simulation environment with collision detection. Simulation with collision detection was shown similar fps for all three methods and the Runge-kutta method was shown the greatest accuracy. In the experiment on physics situation recognition, a physics situation recognition algorithm where the number of input layers (number of physical parameters) and output layers (destruction value for the master car) is fixed has shown the best performance when the number of hidden layers is 3 and the learning count number is 30,000. Since we tested with rigid bodies only, we are currently studying efficient physics situation recognition for soft body objects.

In this paper, we systematically investigate regional differences of the dead due to injuries in cities, towns and counties about transportation accidents, suicides and fall accidents, which have recently been an important issue of health problems in Korea, The data are from the Annual Report on the Cause of Death Statistics in Korea in 2008. They include the deaths over the age 19 from transportation accidents, suicides and fall accidents with the criterion of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases. Poisson HGLM is applied to estimate the mortality rate under the assumption that the number of deaths follow a Poisson distribution, by considering regions as random effects and by adjusting age, sex and standardized residence tax as fixed effects. Using the results of random effects prediction, the regional differences in cities, counties and towns are marked in disease mapping. The results showed that there were significant regional differences of mortality rates for transportation accidents and suicides, but no significant differences for fall accidents.

In this work, we have analyzed the characteristics of vertical nanowire GAA MOSFET according to channel width and the type of channel doping through the simulation. First, we compared and analyzed the characteristics of designed structures which have tilted shapes that ends of drains are fixed as 20nm and ends of sources are 30nm, 50nm, 80nm and 110nm. Second, we designed the rectangular structure which has uniform width of drain, channel and source as 50nm. We used it as a standard and designed trapezoidal structure which is tilted so that the end of drain became 20nm and reverse trapezoidal structure which is tilted so that the end of source became 20nm. We compared and analyzed the characteristic of above three structures. For the last, we used the rectangular structure, divided its channel as five parts and changed the type of the five parts of doping concentration variously. In the first simulation, when the channel width is the shortest, in the second, when the structure is trapezoid, in the third, when the center of channel is high doped show the best characteristics.

The precision of retardation measurement has been improved upto $3{\sigma}$ <0.005 nm after improvements are made to the conventional transmission ellipsometer. Improvements are made such that, i) the polarizer module instead of the sample stage is rotated, ii) the light source is replaced, iii) the starting points of two rotating modules are accurately synchronized, and iv) the fine background retardation is compensated. Together with the newly introduced RVD (Retardation Vector Difference) method, the improved instrument is successfully applied to characterize the ultra small optical birefringence of the rubbed polyimide alignment layer, after the residual retardation due to glass substrate whose magnitude is about 1.0 nm is properly subtracted. It is verified that the net retardation of the alignment layer ranges from 0.05 nm to 0.15 nm.
