This study was conducted to increase the adorption capacity of microporous carbon which is widely used as an adsorbent. After increasing the adsorption capacity of microporous carbon by heat-treatment, chromium($Cr^{+6}$) solution, which is the one of hazardous heavy metals, was selectively adsorbed on microporous carbon. Optimum temperature range for the heat-treatment of microporous carbon was $340{\sim}350^{\circ}C$, and the average specific surface area was measured as $1380m^2/g$ by BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) method. The weight loss was about 10 percents during the heating to optimum temperature. However, It became a qualitative adsorbent due to a larger specific surface area. Removal of chromium($Cr^{+6}$) in solution by heat-treated microporous carbon was successfully carried out.

Over-sampled discrete wavelet transformation is one way to overcome the disadvantages of the standard wavelet transform of shift invariance even though it increases the number of subband signals. Non-separable based discrete wavelet transform is efficient that it satisfies shift invariance and directional selectivity. In this paper, since efficient over-sampled wavelet transform is possible in a two-dimensional image processing, we show that the proposed method is well applied with performance improvement of digital image and noise removal.

Among various modern control theories, PID control has been well used for several decades. PID algorithms need some tuning methods which are used for selecting PID parameters. But in some cases various kinds of performance indices are used instead of well-known tuning rules, and so variable type of performance index must be tested so that controllers, output characteristics and disturbance rejection property meet some specifications. In this paper, linear conbinational type of performance index using error signal, time, control input and robustness is used to the PID control of air conditioning system. By use of the 2 DOF PID parmeters minimizing perfromacne index controllers, output characteristics and robustness properties are analyzed. Simulations are done by use of MATLAB with Simulink.

The paper is concerned with the analysis of laminated composite shell structures using an improved degenerated shell element. In the formulation of the element stiffness, the combined use of three different techniques was made. They are; 1) an enhanced interpolation of transverse shear strains in the natural coordinate system to overcome the shear locking problem; 2) the reduced integration technique in in-plane strains to avoid the membrane locking behavior; and 3) selective addition of the nonconforming displacement modes to improve the element performances. This element is free of serious shear/membrane locking problems and undesirable compatible/commutable spurious kinematic deformation modes. An incremental total Lagrangian formulation is presented which allows the calculation of arbitrarily large displacements. The resulting non-linear equilibrium equations are solved by the Newton-Raphson method. The versatility and accuracy of this improved degenerated shell element are demonstrated by solving several numerical examples.

We develop a diagnostic system to monitor failures in an engine-assembly line. Existing techniques such as sensory analysis, time domain analysis, frequency analysis, and statistical analysis have limitations in the diagnosis of engine-assembly failure when there are abnormal vibration waveforms (crashing and damping signals) during the assembly. We use a wavelet technique to deal with crashing and damping signals. We also implement a new technique for developing diagnostic rules from sensor data, and we demonstrate its validity.

In this paper, we propose a new method of improving accuracy of motion estimation in mobile environments, compared with Rosten's algorithm. The present method selects corners as feature points. The Rosten's algorithm uses simple addition and subtraction to detect the corners. Although it has the advantage of faster processing speed, Rosten's algorithm has a drawback of low performance in motion estimation. We use the NCC(Normalized Cross Correlation) coefficients to match the corners, and remove in two steps the outliers of inaccurate matching corners. We compare the proposed algorithm with Rosten's algorithm by applying both to the real images. We find that the proposed method shows better performance than Rosten's algorithm in motion estimation. In addition, we implement the present method on mobile devices and confirm that it works in mobile environments in real time.

This article describes the concept and the trend of antimicrobial coating agents, which will help to establish the direction of the research and development on antimicrobial coating agent. Antimicrobial agents are compounds that inhibit or kill microorganisms. They are classified into inorganic, metallic, low molecular weight organic, natural organic, and polymeric compounds. Antimicrobial coatings are applied to the surface of daily necessities, medical devices, industrial products, electrical appliances, fabrics, and interior building materials, etc. Conventional antibiotics penetrate microbes without damaging bacterial cell walls, leading to drug resistance which polymeric antimicrobials can prevent by disrupting cell walls. Most polymeric antimicrobials are focused on cationic polymers. Improvement in the selectivity and durability of antimicrobials and reduction of their toxicity will come true by more reasonable design of molecular structures and their combination in coating system.

Least mean square(LMS) algorithm is one of the most popular algorithm in adaptive signal processing because of the simplicity and the small computation. But the convergence speed of time domain adaptive algorithm is slow when the spread width of eigen values is wide. Moreover we have to choose the step size well for convergency in this paper, we use adaptive algorithm of wavelet transform. And we propose a new wavelet based adaptive algorithm of wavelet transform. And we propose a new wavelet based adaptive algorithm with variable step size, which Is linear to absolute value of error signal. We applied this algorithm to adaptive noise canceler. Simulation results are presented to compare the performance of the proposed algorithm with the usual algorithms.

본 논문에서는 한국어 Trainable TTS System의 자연스러운 음성 합성을 위해 400문장(어절수 : 6,220, 음운수: 총43,701: 자음 23,899,모음: 19,802)에 대하여 단일 남성화자가 발성한 문 음성 데이터를 음운레벨세그먼트, 음운 라벨링 ,어절간의 띄어쓰기 ,어절에 대한 음운별 품사가 태깅된 문 음성 코퍼스를 사용하여 음운 환경과 품사에 의하여 음운의 지속시간이 어떻게 변화하는가에 대하여 통계적으로 분석하였다. 그리고 음운 지속시간을 보다 정교하게 예측하기 위하여, 각 음운에 대한 고유 지속시간의 영향이 배제된 정규화 음운지속시간에 대한 회귀트리를 이용하여 정규화 지속시간에 영향을 미치는 특징요소들 간의 관계를 통계적인 방법으로 분석하였다. 그 결과 문법적인 특징요소를 나타내는 요소들간에 서로 상관이 높게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다 그리고 이러한 경우 유사한 특징 요소들간에 상관이 1에 가까울 정도로 상관이 높은 요소들의 경우 예측지수가 낮은 요소들을 제거하여도 지속시간변화에 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 그 결과 문법적 성질이 유사한 특징 요소들을 회귀트리를 통해 모델링할 경우에 요소들간의 상관정도를 분석하여 최소한의 특징요소들을 선택 할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다 그리고 이를 토대로 한 정규화 회귀트리의 모델링이 지속시간 회귀트리 모델링보다 우수함을 입증하였다.

Recently, several DDP, DDO and COS-based block ciphers have been proposed for hardware implementations with low cost. However, most of them are vulnerable to related-keyt attacks. A 12-round block cipher SCOS-3 is desinged to eliminate the weakness of DDP, DDO and COS-based block ciphers. In this paper, we propose a related-key differential attack on an 11-round reduced SCOS-3. The attack on an 11-round reduced SCOS-3 requires $2^{58}$ related-key chosen plaintexts and $2^{117.54}$ 11-round reduced SCOS-3 encryptions. This work is the first known attack on SCOS-3. Therefore, SCOS-3 is still vulnerable to related-key attacks.
