3D reconstruction means that reconstructing the 3D shape of the object in an image and a video. We proposed a progressive occupancy network architecture that can recover not only the overall shape of the object but also the local details. Unlike the original occupancy network, which uses a feature vector embedding information of the whole image, we extract and utilize the different levels of image features depending on the receptive field size. We also propose a novel network architecture that applies the image features sequentially to the decoder blocks in the decoder and improves the quality of the reconstructed 3D shape progressively. In addition, we design a novel decoder block structure that combines the different levels of image features properly and uses them for updating the input point feature. We trained our progressive occupancy network with ShapeNet. We compare its representation power with two prior methods, including prior occupancy network(ONet) and the recent work(DISN) that used different levels of image features like ours. From the perspective of evaluation metrics, our network shows better performance than ONet for all the metrics, and it achieved a little better or a compatible score with DISN. For visualization results, we found that our method successfully reconstructs the local details that ONet misses. Also, compare with DISN that fails to reconstruct the thin parts or occluded parts of the object, our progressive occupancy network successfully catches the parts. These results validate the usefulness of the proposed network architecture.

This study reviewed the planning characteristics of dormitories for secondary schools in the Japanese Colonial Era by analyzing the architectural drawings collected by the National Archives of Korea. The dormitory was one of the essential facilities in secondary schools but there have been few studies in this area. The analysis items were the site plan and the planning characteristics of student bedrooms, dining hall, and supervisor's area, which were the main elements of the dormitory. The results of this study were summarized as follows. 1) Generally, the dormitory area was placed in the rear of buildings for teaching with a close connection. 2) The student bedroom wings were laid out in parallel to the south as a rule making the typical site plan pattern for a dormitory, whereas the other parts of dormitory, such as the dining hall and supervisor's area were placed in the site conditions. 3) Generally, the unit plans of bedrooms for Korean schools were the ondol type and were small in size, whereas those for Japanese were the tatami type and large in size with separate study and sleeping areas. 4) The dining hall annex was made up of a dining hall and kitchen-bathroom area in general. For Japanese schools, the school store area was added to these areas. The typical shapes of dining hall plans were narrow and long with an adjacent corridor, so the overall plan of the dining hall annex was like that of a single-corridor type block plan. 5) The supervisor's area was a smaller part of the dormitory but it was considered to be a symbolic part of the whole dormitory in site planning and design.

본 논문에서는 동적인 실제 객체로부터 얻어진 깊이 맵으로부터 3차원 메쉬 모델을 생성할 때, 영상의 경계정보를 기반으로 효율적인 비정규 메쉬를 생성하는 기법을 제안한다. 우선 깊이 맵으로부터 소수의 특징점과 경계영역에서의 실루엣 점을 추출한다. Delaunay 삼각화 기법을 적용할 때 경계 피부에 발생하는 불필요한 삼각형들을 효율적으로 제거하기 위해 실루엣점으로 구성된 경계 라인을 제약조건으로 사용한다. 즉 깊이 맵으로부터 경계 영역 정보를 추출하고 이를 기반으로 관심 객체의 비정규 삼각 메쉬에 존재하는 불필요한 외부 삼각형을 제거한다. 최종적으로 생성된 3차원 메쉬에 포함된 형상 노이즈를 제거하기 위해 메쉬 스무딩 기법을 적용하고, 깊이 맵과 동시에 획득된 컬러 영상을 텍스쳐링하여 3차원 메쉬를 생성한다.

영상분할이나 연결요소 추출 등에 의해 구해진 물체 영역의 경계 부분에 잔가지 모양으로 나타나는 잡영가지는 물체의 형상 특징 연산 및 인식 과정에서 오류를 일으키는 원인이 되므로 효과적으로 제거할 수 있는 방법이 필요하다. 기존의 연구에서는 한 픽셀 두께의 잡영가지만을 제거할 수 있는 방법이 제안되었다. 본 연구에서는 부분적으로 두 픽셀 이상이 뭉쳐져 둥그스름한 덩어리(blob, 블럽)를 형성하고 있는 잡영가지도 4-8-방향 윤곽선 추적에 의해 제거할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 먼저 잔가지를 구성하고 있는 픽셀과 물체 영역을 구성하는 픽셀을 개략적으로 분리한 후, 윤곽선 추적물 하면서 사용자가 정의한 크기보다 작은 블럽을 포항한 잔가지를 추출해낸다. 이어서, 이러한 잔가지를 사용자가 정의한 잡영가지의 크기와 비교하여 최종적으로 제거할 수 있도록 한다. 이와 같이 사용자 입력 변수에 따라 잡영가지에 대한 개념을 보다 확장하여 자유롭게 정의할 수 있도록 명시화 함으로써, 영상의 특성에 따라 보다 유연하게 잡영가지를 정의하여 제거할 수 있도록 하였다.

Subdomain-interface variational formulation is presented to solve a class of dynamic contact problems of composite structures. The penalty method is used for imposing inequality constraints on contact surfaces and for connecting finite element subdomains that satisfy interface compatibility conditions. As a result, any complex-shaped domain can be easily divided into independently modeled subdomains without considering the conformity of meshes on interfaces. Some advantageous features of the present method are shown through a set a numerical studies with a developed computer code.

If a method of character region extraction will have general purposes, it could not but make use of common features which all target images have. This paper suggests these common features should be considered as the coalitions for the region to be extracted within a framework of the cost minimization. The method suggested above could be effective by minimizing a cost function estmating the extent that character regions satify quantitatively the features, through Simulated Annealing Method. This method has an uniqueness in that it defines the cost function. Experimental result verify the usefulness of this cost minimization approach to characer region extraction.

This study is concerned with the shape optimization of structural members frequently found in critical area in a structure system, that is, highly stressed zone. Isogeometry analysis is well known to be the very efficient way to integrate the geometric modeling(CAD) and computational analysis(CAE). This can be accomplished by directly using the geometric modeling by NURBS(Non-Uniform Rational Basis Spline). In this study, an efficient computer code adopting the isogeometry concept has been developed for the structural analysis, in which CAD information can be directly used in the finite element modeling. In order to show the validity of the present code, the present results are compared with those by using the commercial package, that is, MSC/NASTRAN. The present isogeometric analysis procedure has been integrated with the optimization procedure to deal with the optimization problem found in the context of structural mechanics. The present system has been successfully applied to the shape optimization of cantilever structure having bracket. From the present study, it can be seen the validity of the present approach and computer codes developed in this study. This paper ends with some discussions about the practical usefulness of the present approach which is based on isogeometry analysis, and extension of the present study.

Using a level set method and topological derivatives, a topological shape optimization method that is independent of an initial design is developed for linearly elastic structures. In the level set method, the initial domain is kept fixed and its boundary is represented by an implicit moving boundary embedded in the level set function, which facilitates to handle complicated topological shape changes. The "Hamilton-Jacobi(H-J)" equation and computationally robust numerical technique of "up-wind scheme" lead the initial implicit boundary to an optimal one according to the normal velocity field while minimizing the objective function of compliance and satisfying the constraint of allowable volume. Based on the asymptotic regularization concept, the topological derivative is considered as the limit of shape derivative as the radius of hole approaches to zero. The required velocity field to update the H-J equation is determined from the descent direction of Lagrangian derived from optimality conditions. It turns out that the initial holes are not required to get the optimal result since the developed method can create holes whenever and wherever necessary using indicators obtained from the topological derivatives. It is demonstrated that the proper choice of control parameters for nucleation is crucial for efficient optimization process.

For moderately jointed to massive rock masses, the failure and deformation behaviors around an excavated opening are absolutely influenced by the initial rock stress and strength of in-situ rock mass. The localized and progressive brittle failure around an opening does not mean whole collapse of an excavated opening. But, for many cases, it may induce temporary stopping of excavation works and reexamination of the current supporting system, which can result in delay of the entire construction works and additional construction cost. In this paper, the characteristics of the brittle failure around an opening with stress level and tunnel shape was studied by the biaxial compressive test using scaled specimen and by the numerical simulation with $PFC^{2D}$. The biaxial test results were well coincided with the stress induced failure patterns around the excavated openings observed and monitored in the in-situ condition. For the circular part of the opening wall, the stress induced cracks initially occurred at the wall surface in the direction of the minimum principal stress and contributed to the localized notch shaped failure region having a certain range of angle. But for the corner and straight part of the opening wall, the cracks initiated at sharp corners were connected and coalesced each other and with existing micro cracks. Further they resulted in a big notch shaped failure region connecting two sharp corners.

Various research and development on Synthetic Aperture Sonar technique is under way to enhance bearing resolution of a SONAR system. In this paper, we estimated perturbed array shapes, and compensated distortion by using estimated away shapes and synthesized arrays in aperture domain such as an ETAM technique. As experimental data, we used the one obtained from towed array in neighboring waters of the Korean peninsula. Through simulation on data where tow-ship speed is maintained at a constant level, we confirmed that synthesis effect of increasing SNR and narrowed beam width of main lobe was consistently demonstrated for about 1 minute when coherence of target signal was maintained. Also, we showed that the synthesis effect with respect to time was constantly maintained.
