This study numerically discusses wave forces acting on a vertical wall such as breakwaters or revetments, subjected to incident undular or turbulent bores. Due to the complex hydrodynamics of bore, its wave forces have been predicted, mainly through laboratory experiments. Numerical simulations in this paper were carried out by CADMAS-SURF(CDIT, 2001), which is based on Navier-Stokes momentum equations and VOF method (Hirt and Nichols, 1981) for tracking free water surface. Its original source code was also partly revised to generate bore in the numerical water channel. Numerical raw data computed by CADMAS-SURF included great strong spike phenomena that show the abrupt jumps of wave loads. To resolve this undesired noise of raw data, the band-pass filter with the frequency of 5Hz was utilized. The filtered results showed reasonable agreements with the experimental results performed by Matsutomi (1991) and Ramsden (1996). It was confirmed that CADMASSURF can be applied to the design of coastal structures against tsunami bores. In addition, the transformation process and propagation speed of bores in the same 2-d water channel were discussed by the variations of water level for time and space. The numerical results indicated that the propagation speed of bore was changed due to the nonlinear interactions between negative and reflected waves.

Purpose : A numerical method of designing a multiple quantum filter (MQF) is presented for the optimum detection of myo-inositol (mI), an important brain metabolite, by using in vivo proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ($^1$-HMRS). Materials and Methods : Starting from the characterization of the metabolite, the filter design includes the optimization of the sequence parameters such as the two echo times (TEs), the mixing time (TM), and the flip angle and offset frequency of the 3rd $90^{\circ}$ pulse which converts multiple quantum coherences (MQCs) back into single quantum coherences (SQCs). The optimized filter was then tested both in phantom and in human brains. Results : The results demonstrate that the proposed MQF can improve the signal-to-background ratio of the target metabolite by a factor of more than three by effectively suppressing the signal from the background metabolites. Conclusion : By incorporating a numerical method into the design of MQFs in $^1$-HMRS the spectral integrity of a target metabolite, in particular, with a complicated spin system can be substantially enhanced.

In this paper, in order to enhance the image reconstruction performance of white light scanning interferometry(WLI), we demonstrate the scattered point noise filtering performance of post-processing methods. Median filtering is similar to using an averaging filter. Because the median value is less sensitive than the mean to extreme values, the median filter can remove the scattered point noise from a height-map without significantly reducing the sharpness of the image. In several specific cases, however, the median filter can't remove the scattered point noise. Therefore, we propose a comparative mean filter that uses order-statistic filtering and the mean of the neighborhood pixels. The performance is demonstrated by measuring an array of metal solder balls fabricated on PCB. The proposed method reduced the noise pixels by 4.4 percent.

A novel optical coupling filter with finite-thickness metal-strip gratings printed on optical planar dielectric slabs is proposed, and Bragg conditions of the device are rigorously evaluated by using Modal Transmission-Line Theory (MTLT). The numerical results reveal that the guiding structures have filtering properties due to a leaky-wave stop-band while conventional DFB guiding structures consisted of dielectric gratings depend on a feedback-wave stop-band. Consequently, it shows that the optical coupling titter dependent on the leaky-wave filtering characteristics can be compounded of such optical devices as LD and optical fiber.

적외선 영상에서 정확하게 표적을 포착하기 위해서는 수많은 거짓 표적과 참표적을 실시간으로 구별하고, 최종적으로 참 표적 하나만을 추적 할 수 있어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 추적 게이트의 이동거리 및 이동 방향을 실시간 감시하여 추적 게이트의 이상 움직임 유무를 확인하고, 추적 필터가 설정한 임계값 대비 높은 수치로 이동하거나, 한 방향이 아닌 다양한 방향으로 움직일 경우 해당 게이트를 신속하게 제거하여 거짓 표적에 대한 추적을 방지하도록 하였다. 또한 추적 게이트 이동 거리 및 확장 크기를 동적으로 조절함으로써 표적의 크기 변화와 표적의 움직임에 강인하게 추적 필터가 동작 되도록 설계하였다.

This paper presents an algorithm for the design of 2 dimension separable denominator digital filter(SDDF). The proposed algorithm is based on the reduced dimensional decomposition not only 2 dimension SDDF's but also of given 2 dimension specification. The frequency domain design of 2 dimension separable denominator digital filters based on the reduced dimensional decomposition can be realized when the given 2 dimension frequency specification are optimally decomposed into a pair of 1 dimension digital filter specification via singular value decomposition. the algorithm is computationally efficient and numerically stable. In case of the low pass filter, the approximation error of the proposed design algorithm is $e_{m}$=5.17, $e_{r1}$ =8.78, $e_{r2}$=7.34, while in case of band pass filter, the approximation error is $e_{m}$=13.00, $e_{r1}$=62.76, $e_{r2}$=62.7676.7676

In this paper, we present a reduced-order parameter-dependent robust $H_{\infty}$ filter design method for discrete-time singular systems with polytopic uncertainties. A BRL(bounded real lemma) for parameter-dependent singular systems is derived from a parameter-dependent Lyapunov function. On the basis of the obtained BRL, low order robust $H_{\infty}$ filter design method is presented by polytopic approach, new reduced-order method, and LMI(linear matrix inequality) technique. Finally, a numerical example is presented to illustrated the feasibility of the proposed method.

In this paper, we present an algorithm based on particle filter to determine the state of human movement. We calculate speed from consecutive positioning data with time, latitude and longitude. The speed values are averaged with previous speed values and thus act as basis for particle filter. We use the fact that human speed distribution follows exponential distribution approximately. An algorithm based on particle filter has been developed and utilized. Human movement state are probabilistically described in this research, and the probability is to determine whether a person is in moving state or in stable state. The experimental results are provided in various ways.
