A linear acoustic analysis is conducted to examine bituning of acoustic resonators for acoustic damping in a combustion chamber of liquid rocket engine. Bituned resonators are tuned to the two principal modes, the first tangential(1T) and the first radial(1R) modes. First, the acoustic-damping effect of monotuned resonators is investigated. The damping capacity is quantified by damping factor as a function of the number of the resonators monotuned to 1T or 1R mode. Next, the damping characteristics of the bituned resonators are investigated. From the numerical data, the number of resonators, to be tuned to 1T and 1R modes, respectively, can be selected properly. Furthermore, the concept of resonator bituning is applied to reduce the degradation of damping effect caused by the mode split and thereby, optimal bituning frequencies are found.

A Galerkin finite element model for the analysis of harbor oscillation has been developed based on the extended mild-slope equation. Infinite elements are used to accomodate the radiation condition at infinity and joint elements to treat the matching conditions at the harbor entrance which include the energy loss due to flow separation. The numerical tests for rectangular harbors with fully or partially open entrances show that the energy loss at the harbor entrance considerably reduces the the amplification ratios at the innermost parts of the harbors and that the amplification ratios decrease considerably with increasing incident wave heights and jet lengths at the harbor entrance. Application of the model to the Gamcheon harbor show that when the incident wave amplitude is small the amplification ratios rather increase when the entrance energy loss is included than when ignored because of the shift of the resonance periods. Even though the entrance energy loss was insignificant for the measured long-period incident waves, it would be of great importance if the incident waves were large as in the attack of tsunamis. The resonance period of the Helmholtz mode at the Gamcheon Harbor was calculated to be 31 minutes, which agrees well with the measured one between 27 and 33.3 minutes. The measured resonance periods between 9.4 and 12.1 minutes and 5.2 and 6.2 minutes were also calculated by the numerical model as 10.4 minutes and 6.6 or 5.6 minutes, indicating good performance of the model. On the other hand, it was shown that a variety of oscillation modes exists in the Gamcheon Harbor and lateral resonances of considerable amplification ratios also exist at the periods of 3.6 and 1.6 minutes as in the Young-II Bay.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to establish optimal imaging acquisition conditions for the GE $Advance^{TM}$ PET imaging system by performing the acceptance tests designed by National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) protocol and General Electric Medical Systems (GEMS) test procedures. Materials and Methods: Performance tests were carried out with $^{18}FDG$ radioactivity source and phantoms by using a standard acquisition mode. Transaxial resolution and scatter traction tests were performed with a line source and axial resolution with a point source, respectively. A cylindrical phantom made of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) was used to measure sensitivity, count rate losses and randoms, uniformity correction, and attenuation inserts were added to measure remaining tests. The test results were acquired in a diagnostic acquisition mode and analyzed mainly on high sensitivity mode. Results: Transaxial resolution and axial resolution were measured as average of 4.65 mm and 3.98 mm at 0 cm, and 6.02 mm and 6.71 mm at 20 cm on high sensitivity mode, respectively. Average scatter fraction was 9.87%, and sensitivity was $225.8kcps/{\mu}Ci/cc$ of trues. Activity at 50% deadtime was $4.6{\mu}Ci/cc$, and the error of count rate correction at that activity was from 1.49% to 3.83%. Average nonuniformity for total slice w3s 8.37%. The accuracy of scatter correction was -0.95%. The accuracies of attenuation correction were 5.68% for air, 0.04% for water and -6.51% for polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). Conclusion: The results satisfied most acceptance criteria, indicating that the GE $Advance^{TM}$ PET system can be optimally used for clinical applications.

본 논문에서는 기존 AVC 보다 50% 압축성능 향상을 목표로 표준화가 진행되고 있는 차세대표준인 HEVC 부호화기의 속도를 높이기 위한 방안으로, HEVC 의 기술 중 화면 분할 기술인 타일(Tile)을 기반으로 효율적으로 부호화기를 병렬화하는 구조를 제안한다. 부호화기에서 복잡도가 높은 율왜곡 기반 모드 결정 과정을 멀티코어 병렬프로그래밍으로 구현하고, 병렬처리에 의한 속도 개선 결과를 제시한다. 타일은 병렬처리를 지원하기 위해 HEVC 가 채택한 구조로, 화면을 여러 개로 분할하여 부/복호화 할 수 있어 병렬처리 단위로 적합하며, 표준화의 기고서를 통해 화면분할로 인한 압축성능 변화량은 여러 차례 보고되고 있다. 본 논문의 결과에 의하면 타일의 수만큼 쓰레드를 생성하여 각 타일 단위로 율왜곡 기반 부호화 모드 결정을 하도록 병렬화 하였을 때 기존 참조 소프트웨어 대비 12 개의 쓰레드 생성 시 6 배의 속도 개선을 보인다. 향후 병렬로 처리할 수 있는 모듈을 확장하면 쓰레드 수 증가에 따른 속도개선 효과가 증대되어 부호화기 실용화를 위한 실시간 부호화기 개발에 한 걸음 다가갈 수 있을 것이라 기대한다.

Versatile Video Coding (VVC), which has been developing as a next generation video coding standard, has adopted various techniques to achieve more than twice the compression performance of HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding). The recently released VVC Test Model (VTM) shows 38% Bjontegaard Delta bitrate (BD-rate) improvement and 9x/1.6x encoding/decoding complexity over HEVC. In order to reduce such increased complexity, various fast algorithms have been proposed. In this paper, gradient-based methods of fast intra mode decision and block splitting are presented. Experimental results show that, compared to VTM6.0, the proposed method gives up to 65% encoding time reduction with 3.54% BD-rate loss in All-Intra (AI) configuration.

전극분할 된 횡진동 모드 압전 진동자에 NIC 회로를 적용한 특성제어 방법을 두께 진동 모드 압전 진동자에 적용하여 그 가능성을 확인해 보았다. 동일한 특성을 가진 두 개의 두께 진동 모드 압전 진동자를 분극방향이 서로 마주보게 제작한 다음, NIC 회로를 적용하여 그 실험결과를 PSpice 모델을 이용한 시뮬레이션과 비교하였다. 그 결과 NIC 회로의 저항 $R-s$,의 변화에 따라 두께 진동 모드 압전 진동자의 품질계수는 제어되었으며, NIC 회로를 적용하지 않은 경우보다 품질계수가 약 18.9배 정도 향상되었다.

Recently, as the number of high-risk pregnancies increases, the use of new techniques such as Doppler, which have higher acoustic power than in the past, has been increasingly used in prenatal diagnosis and guidelines have been set up by various organizations to prevent excessive exposure. Therefore, in this study, we tried to investigate the temperature change of the body surface for each test mode according to the long time ultrasound examination and to examine the exposure time which is not influenced by the thermal effect. B mode, C mode, and PD mode according to time, and the temperature difference between exposed and unexposed sites were compared. As a result, the B mode showed a significant difference in the temperature change from 10 minutes, 50 minutes after exposed, 20 minutes from the C mode, and 30 minutes from the PD mode (p<0.01). In all three modes, the temperature difference was different (p<0.000), and PD mode was the most sensitive to temperature change. Also, it was found that the temperature rise time was shortened with the increase of the ultrasonic exposure time. Therefore, it is recommended that ultrasonography to observe the embryo or fetus should be used only for diagnostic purposes, avoiding excessive test time.

When wavelength division optical coupler is fabricated with the polished single mode optical fiber, coupling coeffiecient differ from wavelength and distance to two cores. Wavelength division is function of the differential coupling coefficient to distance of two cores. This paper suggests the condition of the minimum spacing of the wavelength division with the function of the distance of two cores.
