The Okinawa Trough is a rift basin formed by extension. Analysis of multichannel seismic reflection profiles from the northwestern margin of the northern Okinawa Trough reveal that the trough is characterized by a series of tilted fault blocks bounded by listric normal faults and half-grabens developed between blocks, showing typical rifted structures. The trough display three kinds of sedimentary sequences with different seismic reflection characteristics: prerift, synrift and postrift sediments. The prerift sequence develops parallel to the dip direction of tilted fault blocks. The synrift sediments, mostly deposited in the half-grabens between tilted fault blocks, are generally well characterized by divergence of the reflectors towards the blocks indicating contemporaneous deposition during tilting. The postrift sediments are featured by continuous and parallel reflectors. The width of the half-graben and the throw-displacement rate of the basin bounding fault are closely connected. The throw-displacement rate is the maximum when the rifting event is the most active and the width of the half-graben is proportional to the rate.

Analysis of multi-channel seismic reflection and well data serves to detail the structural evolution of the northern Okinawa Trough, southern offshore Korea. The overall structural style of the area is characterized by a series of half grabens and tilted fault blocks bounded by basement-involved listric normal faults. Most half grabens and tilted fault blocks developed in the direction of NNE-SSW, parallel to the axis of the Okinawa Trough. Orientation and distribution of the listric faults also suggest the development of transfer faults in NW-SE direction. The rifting phase of the northern Okinawa Trough have been established on the basis of structural and stratigraphic analyses of depositional sequences and their seismic expressions. Major phase of rifting probably started in the Late Miocene and the most active rifting occurred during the Early Pliocene. The rifting produced a series of half grabens and tilted fault blocks bounded by listric normal faults. It appears that the rifting activity has become weaker since the Late Pliocene, but the Pleistocene sediments faulted by listric faults bounding tilted fault blocks suggest that the rifting activity is probably still in progress.

본 논문은 전역조명을 효율적으로 계산하기 위한 렌더링 방법인 photon mapping 에서 물체의 조명 값을 계산하는데 필요한 radiance를 구하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 방법은 포톤과 표면과의 반응 종류에 상관없이 포톤을 저장할 때 단지 위치와 기타 정보만을 저장하는 방법을 사용했었다. 본 논문에서는 각각의 포톤에 하나의 반지름을 부여하여 물체 표면과의 반응 종류에 따라 가변적으로 반지름을 조절하는 방법을 사용하였다. 구현 후 실험 결과 비슷한 렌러링 시간에 이전에 사용되던 방법에 비해서 caustic 과 그림자 표현에서 더 나은 이미지 품질을 보여주었다. 또한 이전 방법에서 caustic을 명확하게 표현하기 위해서 사용했던 caustic map을 사용한 경우에 비해서 더 빠르게 렌더링 되는 결과가 나타났다.

The limiting equivalent ionic conductances of Li$^+$, Na$^+$, K$^+$, Cl$^-$, and Br$^-$ ions were obtained with TATB[Tetraphenyl Arsonium Tetraphenyl Borate] method from limiting equivalent conductances of LiCl, NaCl, KCl and KBr measured in water-methanol systems by conductometric method. With those values and viscosity of water-methanol systems, the Stokes radii of corresponding ions have been extracted. The latter values corrected by calibration method of Nightingale and supplemented by the crystallographic radii were utilized to calculate the volume of solvation-shell that surrounds ions. The reasonable solvation numbers (h$_{H_2O}$ ＋ h$_0$) were estimated by comparing the values obtained by the various suggested methods. The selective properties of ion solvation were also discussed.

We present an algorithm to reconstruct a pipe surface from a set of unorganized points. A pipe surface is defined by a spine curve and a radius of a swept sphere. In this paper, by using the shrinking and moving least-squares methods, a point cloud is reduced to a thin curve-like point set that can be easily approximated with a spine curve of a pipe surface. The distance between a point in the thin point cloud and a corresponding point in the original point set represents the radius of a swept sphere of a pipe surface.

From the distribution equations of current on a 6 points symmetrically-fed linear antenne, equations of input impedanees and mutual impedances were introduced. Although the practical calculation is very tideous, it can seen that it is calculable anyhow, as shown on an example.

This paper proposes a complexity reduced list sphere decoding (LSD) scheme for joint iterative soft detection scheme for coded MIMO system. The conventional LSD scheme is based on searching the candidates with a fixed radius. However, once the candidate list is full, it is highly probable that the radius can be reduced. By reducing the radius, the complexity can be also reduced. We propose a simple and efficient radius update method for complexity reduction of list version sphere decoding and its application to iterative soft MIMO detection. We evaluate the performance of the proposed scheme with a joint soft-input-soft-ouput iterative MIMO detection in combination with turbo codes. Simulation results show that the proposed methods provide substantial complexity reduction while achieving similar bit error rate (BER) performance as the conventional LSD scheme.

This paper presents a feature extraction method for shape based retrieval of 3D models. Since the feature descriptor of 3D model should be invariant to translation, rotation and scaling, it is necessary to preprocess the 3D models to represent them in a canonical coordinate system. We use the PCA(Principal Component Analysis) method to preprocess the 3D models. Also, we apply that to make a MBR(Minimum Boundary Rectangle) and a circumsphere. The proposed algorithm is as follows. We generate a circumsphere around 3D models, where radius equals 1(r=1) and locate each model in the center of the circumsphere. We produce the concentric spheres with a different radius($r_i=i/n,\;i=1,2,{\ldots},n$). After looking for meshes intersected with the concentric spheres, we compute the curvature of the meshes. We use these curvatures as the model descriptor. Experimental results numerically show the performance improvement of proposed algorithm from min. 0.1 to max. 0.6 in comparison with conventional methods by ANMRR, although our method uses .relatively small bins. This paper uses $R{^*}-tree$ as the indexing.

Photon mapping is a traditional global illumination method using many photons emitted from the light source for photo-realistic rendering. However, this method needs a lot of resources to perform tracing of millions of photons. Progressive photon mapping solves this problem. Typical progressive photon mapping performs ray tracing at first to find the hit points on diffuse surface of objects. Next, light source repeatedly emits a small number of photons in photon tracing pass, and power of photons in each sphere that has a fixed radius with the hit points in the center is accumulated. This method requires less resources than previous photon mapping, but it spends much time for gathering enough photons since each of photons progresses through a random direction and rendering high quality image. To improve the method, we propose photon probing that calculates variance of photons in the sphere and controls radius of sphere. In addition, we apply cone filter in radiance estimation step for reducing aliasing at the edges in result image.
