Feature detection is important in various mesh processing techniques, such as mesh editing, mesh morphing, mesh compression, and mesh signal processing. In this paper, we propose a geometric snake as an interactive tool for feature detection on a 3D triangular mesh. A geometric snake is an extension of an image snake, which is an active contour model that slithers from its initial position specified by the user to a nearby feature while minimizing an energy functional. To constrain the movement of a geometric snake onto the surface of a mesh, we use the parameterization of the surrounding region of a geometric snake. Although the definition of a feature may vary among applications, we use the normal changes of faces to detect features on a mesh.

Horizontal tunnel face reinforcement using Fiber Glass Tube(FGT) or steel pipe and pipe roofing techniques are frequently used when the stability of newly excavated tunnel is not guaranteed. However, the mechanical behavior of tunnels using these techniques has not been fully understood so far. Therefore, engineering rule of thumb is commonly applied during designing procedure, and it is difficult to adopt these techniques rationally. In this study, the application of a simplified numerical analysis method based on composite mechanics is verified. The mean field theory and the strain energy theory are used to obtain the equivalence elastic moduli of reinforced soil and rock. Furthermore, a parametric study on the deformational behavior of tunnel face is performed for various patterns of prereinforcement.

This study was performed to make a close inquiry into a pseudo 3-dimensional structure of the liquid-propellant spray emerging from nonimpinging-type injector. Spray configuration near the injector exit was captured by a high-speed camera, and then its periodic phenomena (shedding) was observed. Detailed spatial structure of spray was investigated by spray characteristic parameters (velocity, diameter, volume flux, etc.) with the aid of a Dual-mode Phase Doppler Anemometry (DPDA). Experiment was carried out at various locations along the geometric axis of the nozzle orifice and on the plane normal to the spray stream with the injection pressures of 17.2 to 27.6 bar.

본 논문에서는 유전 알고리즘의 성능 향상을 위해 교배(Crossover) 기법의 중요 매개변수인 교배 교차점(Crossover Point)의 수를 개체군(Population)의 진화 과정 중에 적응적으로 변화 할 수 있는 자기-적응형(Self-Adaptive) 교배 기법을 제안한다. 이를 위해 제안 교배 기법은 전체 개체군을 다수개의 작은 개체군들로 군집화(Grouping)하여 일차적으로 서로 다른 교차점을 갖는 교배 기법을 적용시키고, 그 후 각 군집의 개체(Individual)들의 선택률을 기반으로 군집들간의 경쟁을 수행한다. 이는 유전 알고리즘이 개체군의 진화 과정 중에 문제에 적합한 교차점을 갖는 교배 기법을 적응적으로 사용할 수 있도록 한다. 또한 제안 교배 기법은 진화 과정 중에 교차점이 지속적으로 변화되므로 알고리즘 초반에는 높은 탐색 능력을 보유하게 되고 후반에는 높은 부분-해(Building-Block) 보존 능력을 지니게 되어, 최적 해(Optimal Solution)로의 수렴 능력이 향상된다. Deceptive 문제를 통해 제안 자기-적응형 교배 기법과 기존 (고정 교차점) 교배 기법의 성능을 비교 하였으며, 실험 결과로부터 제안 교배의 성능 우위를 확인하였다.

Various transition elements are generally used for the effective analysis of a complicated mechanical structure. In this paper, a solid-to-beam transition finite element which connects a continuum element and a $c^1-continuity$ beam element each other is proposed. The shape functions of the transition finite elements, which a 8-noded hexahedral solid element fur 3D analysis and a 4-noded quadrilateral plane element fur 2D analysis are connected to a Euler's beam element, are explicitely formulated. In order to show the effectiveness and convergence characteristics of the proposed transition elements. numerical tests are performed for various examples and their results are compared with those obtained by other methods. As the result of this study. following conclusions are obtained: (1)The proposed transition finite elements show the monotonic convergence characteristics because of having used the compatible displacement folds. (2)As being used the transition element in the finite element analysis, the finite element modelings are more convenient and the analysis results are more accurate because of the formulation characteristies of the Euler's beam element.

This paper is concerned with the actual comparison analysis for the freshening process in the two selected experimental reservoirs. At the deep freshening reservoir, the salinity and depth of the freshwater layer were estimated by simulation technique using the quantitative equation for the two-layered flow structures. First of all, it is shown that the effects of underdrainage conduit in the lower layer were reported more effective for the control of upper layer salinity comparing with the case of no underdrainage conduit. Further the results of computation were later compared with the real observed values and the relating parameters of the salt-balance equation are conformed even though approximately. Finally it was represented that the salinity of upper layer is easily diluted not only by the tidal gate but also by the underdrainge conduit in the lower layer of the freshening reservoir.

기후변화는 전 세계적으로 많은 관심을 얻고 있으며 그로 인한 재산과 인명피해의 증가가 우려되고 있다. 기후변화에 대해 가장 취약한 부분은 수자원분야이며 수자원 활용의 극대화를 위하여 여러 예측방법이 활용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기상변화의 예측 및 모델링 기법 중 하나와 수문모델의 융합 기법을 활용하였다. 선행 연구에서는 레이더 강우자료와 지상 우량계의 강우자료로 여유추정시간에 대한 단기 예측만이 가능하게 하였는데 이 방법은 조금 더 여유 추정시간을 증가 시키는 장점이 있다. 이 연구에서는 여유추정시간의 증가에 대한 정확성을 검증하기 위하여 청미천 유역을 대상으로 연구를 실시하였다. 연구 방법으로는 ArcGIS와 Arc-View을 사용하여 대상유역의 Curve Number (CN) 값을 추출하고, 강우예측모형인 Weather Research Forecast (WRF) - Advanced Research WRF (ARW) 결과자료와 과거 강우자료의 비교 검증을 통하여 모형의 적용성을 평가하였다. 두 자료는 HEC-HMS의 입력자료가 되며, 이를 바탕으로 지역 유출량 산정 및 지표면 유출 모의를 통한 강우-유출현상을 검토 자료로 활용할 수 있다. 본 연구를 바탕으로 청미천 유역 지표면에서의 강우-유출모의를 개선하여 대상유역의 현상을 보다 유사하게 나타내고자 하였으며, 이와 함께 WRF-ARW 모형을 통하여 여유추정시간의 증가를 모색하고 지역강우 모형이 대한민국 지형의 잘 어울리는 최적화된 매개변수들의 조합을 알아내고 그의 적용현실성을 평가하고자 한다.

Overlap is one of the techniques for increasing bit rate in chirp spread spectrum (CSS). More overlaps can offer higher data throughput; however, they may cause more intersymbol interference (ISI) at the same time, resulting in serious bit error rate (BER) performance degradation. Thus, the number of overlaps should be decided according to the required BER performance. In this paper, we derive a closed form expression for BER of the overlap-based CSS system, exploiting the approximated Gaussian Q function. The derived BER expression includes the number of overlaps as a parameter, and thus, would be very useful in determining the number of overlaps for a specified BER. The numerical results demonstrate that the BER derived in a closed form closely agrees with the simulated BER.

Dual-mode Phase Doppler Anemometry (DPDA) was used to scrutinize the spatial distribution characteristics of spray emanating from a small Liquid-Rocket Engine (LRE) injector. Droplet size and velocity were measured according to the variation of injection pressure along the plane normal to the spray stream and then the spray characteristic parameters such as Arithmetic Mean Diameter (AMD), Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD), number density, span of drop size distribution, and volume flux were deduced for an investigation of spray breakup characteristics. As the injection pressure increases, the number density, span, and volume flux of spray droplets become higher, whereas the AMD gets smaller.

The current procedure to design hydraulic structures in a small basin area is to estimate the probable rainfall depth using rainfall intensity formula. The estimation of probable rainfall depth has many uncertainties inherent with it. However, it has been inevitable to simplify the nonlinearity if the rainfall in practice. This study attend to address a method which can model the nonlinearity in order to derive better rainfall intensity formula for the estimation of probable rainfall depth. The results show that genetic algorithm is more reliable and accurate than trial-and-error method or nonlinear programming technique(Powell's method) in the derivation of the rainfall intensity formula.
