In this thesis, the color information is used to extract the traffic sign territory, and for recognizing the extracted image, it proposes the traffic sign recognition system that applies the error back propagation algorithm. The proposed method analyzes the color of traffic sign to extract and recognize the possible territory of traffic sign. The method of extracting the possible territory is to use the characteristics of YUV, YIQ, and CMYK color space from the RGB color space. Morphology uses the geometric characteristics of traffic sign to make the image segmentation. The recognition of traffic signs can be recognized by using the error back propagation algorithm. As a result of the experiment, the proposed system has proven its outstanding capability in extraction and recognition of candidate territory without the influence of differences in lighting and input image in various sizes.

To reduce the noise from wood cutting saw at the saw mill(lumber mill) or a construction area, some multi-layer sandwich saw blades which a aluminum or copper plate was inserted between the two steel plates were developed and were tested of the wood cutting noise level at various test places. From the research, it was found that the multi-layer saw blade with copper or aluminum plate between steel plates and spot welded 60 points could reduce the wood cutting sound level about 8.3 dB(97.031 dB - 88.743 dB) at indoor test and 3.8 dB(84.805 - 81.638 dB) at field test.

The vibration damping of various multilayer damping sheet with different constraining layer and viscoelastic layer were investigated by Rheovibron and vibration test. Damping increased as dynamic loss tangent increased. Constrained type damping sheet showed better damping than extensional type damping sheet. Aluminum foil attached asphalt impregnated paper pad showed best damping.

섬유강화 복합재료는 상대적으로 아주 높은 질량 대비 탄성계수를 가지고 있으므로 경량화 할 필요가 있는 물체나 관성력이 최소로 요구되는 부분에 사용되고 있다. 대부분의 복합재료판들은 고탄성-저신도 섬유를 사용하여 만든 단층의 복합재료를 그배향 방향을 조절하여 원하는 방향 특성으로 접근한다. 그러나 다층으로 만들어 2차원의 등방성 소재로 만들어 사용하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 경우에는 여러 층을 결합 하여야 하는 번거로움과 두께의 제약 등이 있다. (중략)

In order to recognize a vehicle license plate, the region of the license plate should be extracted from a vehicle image. Then, character region should be separated from the background image and characters are recognized using some neural networks with selected feature vectors. Of course, choice of feature vectors which serve as the basis of the character recognition has an important effect on recognition result as well as reduction of data amount. In this paper, we propose a novel feature extraction method in which number images are decomposed into linear combination of eigennumbers and show the validity of this method by applying to the recognition of numeric characters in license plates. The experimental results show the recognition rate of 95.3% for about 500 vehicle images with multi-layer perceptron neural network in the eigennumber space. Compared with the conventional mesh feature, it shows a better recognition rate by 5%.

PCB-based deployable solar panel is mainly used for CubeSat due to its lightweight and easy of electrical connection. However, as the size of solar panel increases, there is a limit to ensuring the structural safety of solar cells due to excessive dynamic displacement under launch vibration environment. In previous mechanical designs, for the minimization of dynamic deflection, panel stiffness is increased by applying additional stiffeners made of various materials such as aluminum or composite. However, it could have disadvantages for CubeSat design requirements due to limited mass and volumes. In this study, a high-damping 6U solar panel was proposed. It had superior damping characteristic with a multi-layered stiffener laminated with viscoelastic acrylic tapes. Basic characteristics of this solar panel were measured through free-vibration tests. Design effectiveness of the solar panel was validated through qualification-level launch vibration test. Based on test results, vibration characteristics of a typical PCB solar panel and the high-damping laminated solar panel were predicted and a comparative analysis was performed.

A license plate recognition system consists of image processing in which characters and features are extracted, and pattern recognition in which extracted characters are classified. Feature extraction plays an important role in not only the level of data reduction but also performance of recognition. Thus, in this paper, we focused on the recognition of numeral characters especially on the feature extraction of numeral characters which has much effect in the result of plate recognition. We suggest a hybrid statistical feature model which assures the best dispersion of input data by reassignment of clustering property of input data. And we verify the effectiveness of suggested model using multi-layer perceptron and learning vector quantization neural networks. The results show that the proposed feature extraction method preserves the information of a license plate well and also is robust and effective for even noisy and external environment.

현대 건축물에서 건물에너지의 손실은 대부분은 창호를 통하여 유출되어지고 있으며 에너지 절감을 위해서는 창호의 단열성을 향상시켜야한다. 저방사(Low Emissivity) 코팅유리는 건축물의 냉난방비용을 절약할 수 있는 대표적인 건축재료로써 외부에서 유입되는 태양광의 가시광선 영역은 높은 투과율을 가지면서 적외선 영역과 겨울철 실내 난방열을 반사하는 특징을 지니는 박막코팅기술이다. 이 코팅유리는 일반적으로 유전체/금속/유전체 다층박막 구조로 되어있으며, 유전체층은 내구성 증진과 금속층의 반사를 낮추어 투과율이 향상된다. 금속층은 적외선영역의 복사에너지를 반사하는 역할을 하며 전도성이 우수한 Ag 또는 Au, Pt 등을 이용하고 있다. Ag의 경우 산화물기판 위에 증착하였을 경우 island 성장을 하고 이들의 합체는 전기적, 광학적 특성에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 DC-sputtering법으로 제조된 Ag/glass, Ag/Ta/glass 박막을 제조하고 Ta seeding이 Ag의 전기적, 광학적 성질에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 박막의 표면 미세구조는 FE-SEM(Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope)과 AFM(Atomic Force Microscope)으로, 표면저항은 4 point probe로 분석하였다. 광투과율은 UV-Vis spectroscopy와 FT-IR로 측정하였으며 측정파장범위는 각각 200~1100nm와 1400~2400nm 이다.

This paper dealt with investigating the number of minimal spanning ladders originated from ladder game and their properties as well as the related computational thinking aspects. The author modified the filtering techniques to enhance Mathematica project where a new type of graph was generated based on the algorithm using a generator of firstly found minimal spanning graph by repeatedly applying independent ladder operator to a subsequence of ladder sequence. The newly produced YC graphs had recursive and hierarchical graph structures and showed the properties of edge-symmetric. As the computational complexity increased the author divided the whole search space into the each floor of the newly generated minimal spanning graphs for the (5, 10) YC graph and the higher (6, 15) YC graph. It turned out that the computational thinking capabilities such as data visualization, abstraction, and parallel computing with Mathematica contributed to enumerating the new YC graphs in order to investigate their structures and properties.

In this paper, the thickness of a multilayer PCB was predicted through an empirical formulation based on the physical properties of the prepreg used in multilayer PCB. Since the thickness of prepreg reduction when manufacturing a PCB due to the physical properties and copper foil residual rate, it is necessary to accurately predict the thickness of the PCB through the thickness empirical formulation. To determine the density of the prepreg, the mass and thickness of the prepreg were measured. To manufacture the CCL, the prepreg and copper foil were laminated using a hot press machine, and the thickness was measured using a microscope and micrometer. An 8-layerd PCB was designed with different circuit densities to measure the change in the thickness with the copper foil residual ratio, and the proposed empirical formulation was verified by comparing the measured thickness with the value obtained using the empirical formulation. As a result, the errors for the CCL and multilayer PCB were 2.56% and 4.48%, respectively, which demonstrated the reliability of the empirical formulation.
