For Halon-1301 regulated by Montreal Protocol and $CO_2$as its alternatives, the empirical equations of density, viscosity, and enthalpy were correlated in terms of temperature. They were obtained by regression analysis from the experimental data in the literature. The empirical equation of density was expressed as compressibility factor by the second- order function of temperature. The empirical equation of viscosity was formulated as a power function, and a correction factor was considered to cover the wider range of temperature. Finally, heat capacity as well as enthalpy were well fitted by empirical form of the second-order temperature. The correlation coefficients of the empirical equations in this work were more than 0.99.

This paper is concerning off-line signature verification using a density function which is obtained by convolving the signature image with twelve-directional $5\times{5}$ gradient masks and the weighted fuzzy mean classifier. The twelve-directional density function based on Nevatia-Babu template gradient is related to the overall shape of a signature image and thus, utilized as a feature set. The weighted fuzzy mean classifier with the reference feature vectors extracted from only genuine signature samples is evaluated for the verification of freehand forgeries. The experimental results show that the proposed system can classify a signature whether it is genuine or forged with more than 98% overall accuracy even without any knowledge of varied freehand forgeries.

Non-linear equalization techniques using decision feedback structure are highly demanded for cancellation of intersymbol interferences occurred in severe channel environments. In this paper decision feedback structure is applied to the linear blind equalizer algorithm that is based on information theoretic learning and a randomly generated symbol set. At the decision feedback equalizer (DFE) the random symbols are generated to have the same probability density function (PDF) as that of the transmitted symbols. By minimizing difference between the PDF of blind DFE output and that of randomly generated symbols, the proposed DFE algorithm produces equalized output signal. From the simulation results, the proposed method has shown enhanced convergence and error performance compared to its linear counterpart.

As an aid towards improving the treatment of exchange and correlation effects in electronic structure calculations, it is desirable to have a clear picture of concepts of exchange-correlation functionals in computational calculations. For achieving this aim, it is necessary to perform different theoretical methods for many groups of materials. We have performed hybrid density functional theory (DFT) methods to investigate the density charges of atoms in rings and cages of carbon nanotube. DFT methods are engaged and compared their results. We have also been inclined to see the impression of exchange and correlation on nuclearnuclear energy and electron-nuclear energy and kinetic energy. With due attention to existence methods, B3P86, B3PW91, B1B96, BLYP and B3LYP have used in this work.

In this study, the probability density functions (PDFs) of the rainfall generated by PRPM(Poisson Rectangular Pulse Model) and the runoff simulated by SLRM(Single Linear Reservoir Model) and Nash model, were compared to find out the changes of runoff characteristics due to the change of rainfall characteristics. Effect of rainfall frequency, Intensity, and duration on runoff were evaluated using the PDFs derived. Two basin, small and midium-sized ones, were also selected to find out the effect of basin size. As the results, we found that the arrival time, the intensity, and the duration of rainfall differently influence the runoff characteristics, which could be applied to evaluate the effect of climate change.

Correntropy is a generalized correlation function that contains higher order moments of the probability density function (PDF) than the conventional moment expansions. The criterion maximizing cross-correntropy (MCC) of two different random variables has yielded superior performance particularly in nonlinear, non-Gaussian signal processing comparing to mean squared error criterion. In this paper we propose a new blind equalization algorithm based on cross-correntropy criterion which uses, as two variables, equalizer output PDF and Parzen PDF estimate of a set of randomly generated symbols that complies with the transmitted symbol PDF. The performance of the proposed algorithm based on MCC is compared with the Euclidian distance minimization.

In this paper, a minimum Euclidian distance criterion between error PDF and Dirac delta function is introduced and a constant modulus type blind equalizer algorithm based on the criterion is proposed. The proposed algorithm using constant modulus error in place of actual error term of the criterion has superior convergence and steady state MSE performance, and the error signal of the proposed algorithm exhibits more concentrated density function in blind equalization environments. Simulation results indicate that the proposed method can be a reliable candidate for blind equalizer algorithms for multipoint communications.

볼츠만 관계식을 아르곤과 산소 플라즈마에서 공간상의 전자 전류 측정과 전자에너지 분포함수의 측정을 통해 실험적으로 검증하였다. 전자의 에너지 분포가 볼츠만 관계식을 따를 때, 탐침의 전위를 고정시켜 각 위치마다 측정 할 경우 탐침과 플라즈마 간의 전위차의 감소와 플라즈마 밀도 감소가 서로 상쇄되는 효과로 인해 공간상에서 전자전류가 일정하게 측정이 된다. 또한 볼츠만 관계식을 전자역학적으로 해석할 때, 전자에너지 분포함수의 비국부적 특성을 의미하기 때문에 공간상에서 전자에너지 분포함수가 일정하게 측정된다. 낮은 압력에서 전자전류는 공간상에서 일정하였고, 전자에너지 분포함수 또한 전체 에너지 상에서 일치하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 전자가 아르곤과 산소 플라즈마에서 각각의 경우에 볼츠만 관계식을 따르는 것으로 볼 수 있다. 하지만 압력이 높을 때, 산소 플라즈마인 경우 볼츠만 관계식 따르지 않았지만 아르곤 플라즈마에서는 여전히 볼츠만 관계식을 따르는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 차이는 산소기체의 경우 분자기체에서 비탄성 충돌을 유발하는 반응들이 다양한 전자에너지 영역에 대해서 존재하여, 전자의 에너지 특성이 비국부적 영역에서 국부적 영역으로 전이가 되기 때문인 것으로 해석할 수 있다. 또한 챔버 벽면으로 빠져나가는 전자에 대해서도 볼츠만 관계식을 실험적으로 검증을 해 보았고, 플라즈마 내에서의 결과와 유사한 경향성을 관찰할 수 있었다.

2020년 집중호우로 인하여 우리나라 전국에 걸쳐 약 2,000여 곳의 산사태, 토석류가 발생하였고 약 1,217ha의 피해 면적이 발생하였다. 피해지역의 특히 생활권 중심의 사면과 계류의 관리 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 산림청 산사태정보시스템에서는 토양함수지수가 80% 도달 시 주의보, 100% 도달 시 경보를 발령하는 대국민 서비스를 제공하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 토층의 깊이에 따른 함수비 분포에 따라 토석류의 발생 가능성에 대한 분석을 수행하고자 하였으며, 토양함수는 기상 수치모델에 의한 예측 강우 자료를 활용하였다. 예측 강우 모델은 토석류가 주로 발생하는 여름철 집중호우 시기인 남서풍을 고려하여 도메인을 구성하였고 산림의 증발산 및 토양수분 모의 정확도 향상을 위해 임상도와 토지피복도를 사용하여 보정하였다. 토층내 토양수분의 함량은 토질에 따라 그 특성이 다르기 때문에 토질과 관련한 주제를 이용하여 토양정보를 활용하였다. 내부마찰각, 점착력, 단위중량, 밀도, 지질도, 지형경사, 표고, 유효토심에 대한 정보를 구축하여, 예측강우에 따라 토층의 수분 함량을 추정하여 붕괴 발생 가능성을 분석하였다. 2006년 평창지역에서 발생한 토석류에 대하여 수행하였으며 토층의 심도는 0.5~1m 범위의 분포에 대하여 체적함수에 따른 실제 토석류 발생에 대한 검증을 수행하였다.

A probability density function of reliability function is derived in this paper, by which the stability of armor units on the rubble-mound breakwater can be studied on the probabilistic approach. To obtain the distribution, each random variable of the reliability function is assumed to follow Gaussian distribution. The distribution function of reliability function is in agreement with the histogram simulated by the Monte-Carlo method. In addition, the failure probability of armor units on the rubble-mound breakwater evaluated by the derived probability density function is shown to have the same order of magnitude as those calculated by FMA and AFDA of moment method. In particular, it is important to note that random variables of the reliability function may be considered to be statistically independent in the reliability analysis of armor units on the rubble-mound breakwater. Therefore, the present approach may be straightforwardly applicable to all of the cases that any random variables in the reliability function are controlled by other distribution functions as well as normal distribution.
