Extracting of car licens plate os important for identifying the car. Since there are some problems such as poor ambient lighting problem, bad weather problem and so on, the car images are distorted and the car license plate is difficult to be extracted. This paper proposes a method of extracting car license plate using motor vehicle regulation. In this method, some features of car license plate according to motor vehicle regulation such as color information, shape are applied to determine the candidate of car license plates. For the result of recognition by neural network, the candidate which has characters and numbers patterns according to motor vehicle regulation is certified as license-plate region. The results of the experiments with 70 samples of real car images shoe the performance of car license-plate extraction by 84.29%, and the recognition rate is 80.81%.

In this study, the flutter analysis for a rectangular box wing and an actual fighter wing with composite shin, aluminum spar and aluminum rib has been conducted. A conservative 3D wing-box model of an actual wing is modeled by MSC/PATRAN and the corresponding free vibration analysis has been performed by MSC/NASTRAN. The finite elements of membrane, rod and shear panel are used. Using the practical ply angles, various composite laminates are composed and analysed. The DLM code which is linear aerodynamic theory in frequency domain is applied to calculate unsteady aerodynamic pressure in subsonic flow region and the V-g and p-k methods are applied to obtain the solution of aeroelastic governing equation in frequency domain.

Numerical analyses through Computational Fluid Dynamics have been performed to investigate the seawater flow field characteristics for various shrouds used in horizontal axis tidal current turbine systems. Seawater flow characteristics are largely influenced under constant tidal current velocity by the shroud geometry and there is considerable difference in fluid velocity distributions around the shrouds. Especially the location and magnitude of maximum seawater flow velocity directly affect turbine performance for power generation. For the cylinder-diffuser type shroud system whose cylinder and diffuser parts have the same length accelerated flow region is formed in the overall cylinder part while maximum velocity in the nozzle-diffuser type whose nozzle and diffuser parts have the same length with symmetry, locally appears near the minimum sectional area. In case of cylinder-diffuser type shroud fluid velocity increases rather high compared with current velocity. And fluid velocity at the centerline gradually increases from the entrance, and then decreases rapidly after reaching a peak close to the middle of the cylinder part unlike the nozzle-diffuser while there is not much variation near the rear of the shroud. These results of the seawater flow characteristics with various shroud geometries can be applied to optimal design for the development of efficient tidal current power generation systems.

모듈 형 터빈 다이아프람은, 아우터 링(outer ring), 스팀 패스(steam path)와 이너 웹(inner web)의 원형 형상을 갖는 세 부분을 조립하여 원주 방향의 용접 조인트를 형성하는 기존의 다이아프람 형태가 아니라, 아우터 슈라우드(outer shroud), 베인(vane)과 이너 슈라우드(inner shroud)의 세 부분이 하나의 모듈을 이루고 이러한 모듈을 원주 방향으로 조립하여 방사 방향의 조인트를 형성한다. 전자빔 용접은 이와 같은 방사 방향의 조인트를 수직으로 가로지르는 용접 궤적을 따라 진행되며, 용접 패스에 따라 형성되는 용융 비드의 단면적만큼 인접하는 두 모듈을 접합시킨다. 이 경우 용융 비드의 단면적과 형상은 두 모듈의 결합 강도를 결정하는 중요한 요소가 되어, 제작 시 다이아프람의 크기와 두께에 따라 용입 깊이와 평균 단면 비드 폭을 규정하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 용입 깊이와 단면 비드 폭의 요구 조건을 만족하면서 결함이 없는 건전한 용접부를 얻을 수 있는 최적 용접 조건을 도출하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 플레이트 시편과 모듈 시편을 사용한 기초 실험과 유사 시제품(semi-mockup) 실험을 실시하였다. 플레이트 기초 실험을 통해 전자빔 주요 변수인 빔 전류, 초점 위치, 용접 속도, 빔 진동 폭 변화에 따른 용융 비드 형상 변화를 관찰하였고, 빔 전류가 용입 깊이에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 인자임을 확인하여 요구 용입 깊이 별 적정 빔 전류 값을 설정하였다. 용접 속도는 생산성 측면에서 균열이 발생하지 않는 범위에서 가능하면 가장 큰 값을 사용하였고, 빔 진동 폭은 초점 위치와 함께 단면 비드 형상 결정에 많은 영향을 주는 인자로 확인되어 균열이 없는 가장 이상적인 단면 비드 형상인 완만한 쐐기 형태가 되도록 설정하였다. 이 후 실제 제품 폭과 용접 패스를 갖는 블록 모듈 실험을 통해 설정 용접 변수의 적용성과 균열 발생 여부를 확인하였고, 이 때 적용 제품 폭이 30 mm 이하이며 요구 용입 깊이가 50 mm 이상의 경우에서 비드 중앙부 균열이 발생함을 관찰하였다. 따라서 해당 영역의 제품에는 균열 저항성이 높도록 용접 속도와 빔 진동 폭을 줄여 최적 용접 변수를 새롭게 설정하였으며, 이를 유사 시제품 실험에 적용하여 최종적으로 용접 변수 안정성을 검증하였다. 이러한 실험을 통해 확인된 최적 용접 조건을 실 제품 제작에 적용하여 모듈 형 터빈 다이아프람 전자빔 용접 제작을 성공적으로 완료할 수 있었다.

As high resolution satellite images can be used, numerous studies have been carried out for exploiting these images in various fields. This paper proposes horse hoof shaped object detection method based on mathematical morphology to extract interesting targets. Interesting targets have conceptually similar shapes such as a horse hoof, not having exact size or shape. Detection of an object with the similar shapes is possible by applying mathematical morphology processes. The proposed method allows an automatic object detection system to detect the meaningful object in a large satellite image rapidly. The mathematical morphology process can be applied to binary images, and thus this method is very simple. Therefore, this method can easily extract a "horse hoof shaped object" from any image that has indistinct edges of the interesting object and different image qualities depending on the filming location, filming time, and filming environment. Using the proposed method by which a "horse hoof shaped object" can be rapidly extracted, the performance of the automatic object detection system can be improved.

An optimization study on a small turbopump impeller operating at the low specific speed is conducted to obtain high output head at the impeller exit. Its specific speed in SI unit (RPM, m3/sec, m) is 4.0, and the outer diameter is 56mm. On the optimization, the outer diameter of the impeller is maintained constant to restrict the pump size, and an objective function of pressure head is maximized with eight design variables, which are related with designing an impeller shape. The response surface method is used to the optimization scheme, and the commercial code CFX-10 is applied for numerical analysis. The pressure head of the objective function obtained with an optimized impeller is increased by 9.7% compared with that obtained on an impeller designed with typically recommended design parameters. This increment is caused by reducing the recirculation region within the impeller passage.

In this study, the effect of the shape of a pintle(obstacle) on thrust-modulation performance and drag in a pintle rocket was investigated by a cold flow test and by computational fluid dynamics. Pintle movement caused a monotonic increase in the chamber pressure. Thrust generated by the pressure distribution on the pintle body was linearly changed to the chamber pressure, and this thrust was greater than that generated by the nozzle-wall pressure distribution. Because the shock pattern in the nozzle changes with the shape of the pintle body and pressure ratio, the thrust generated by the nozzle-wall pressure is not directly affected by chamber pressure. The drag due to the pintle(obstacle) can be minimized for a fully linear pintle shape, regardless of chamber pressure.

In these days, considering the trend to make various information blended based on spatial information like road, buildings and geography, it is to be very important to visualize maps for showing the information efficiently. However, geometry which is composed with line, polygon commonly used on web service has limitation to express information by limit of usage as well as spending certain time to show the information via map. That's why this study develops the efficient way to visualize huge and complex spatial information. This way is to bring partial space with spatial query, and then query and expand information excluded the former area after detecting movement event based on client. When the way is implemented, it will be expected to make efficient visualization in entire system by not bringing unnecessary information but shortening spending time to show area because it just shows areas which clients want to see.

다축가공은 3축 이상의 동시제어축을 이용하여 복잡한 형상을 효율적으로 가공할 수 있는 첨예의 기술인 반면, 가공 설비의 고가로 인해 실제현장에 보급되지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 부가축 방식에 의한 저축화 가공방식은 이러한 현실적 문제에 대처할 수 있는 강력한 방식으로서, 본 연구팀에서는 3축 CNC 공작기계에 부가축 테이블 방식을 이용하여 5축 곡면가공을 구현한 바 있으며, 정삭가공 알고리즘을 개발한 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 부가축 환경하에서 황삭가공 알고리 즘을 다루며, 기존의 전축환경의 황삭가공에 비해공구자세를 인텍싱 형태로 변화시킬 수 있다는 차이가 있으며, 이에 따라 자세조정횟수의 초소화가 생산성 지표로 부각된다. 본 연구에서 개발된 황삭경로 알고리즘은 자세조정횟수를 포함 하여 공구접근영역, 공구교환횟수, 피드조정을 통하여 전체적을 황삭가공시간의 최소화로 접근하였다. 연구된 알고리즘 은 컴퓨터시뮬레이션을 통하여 검증하였으며, 실제절삭을 통한 검증이 추진중에 있다.
