In this paper, Rayleigh wave velocity has been measured by detecting the backscattered signal generating near the Rayleigh critical angle in the elastic medium. The rotating system has been made for the measurment of Rayleigh angle. It has been shown that the measured velocity for the stainless steel, brass aluminum, copper has been good agreement with the theoretical value. The method of non-destructive evaluation using backscattering signal has been presented and the c-scan acoustic image for internal of IC sample has been displayed.

Mechanical joints such as bolted or riveted joints are widely used in mechanical components. The reliable determination of the stress intensity factors for cracks in bolted joints is needed to evaluate the safety and fatigue life of them. The weight function method is an efficient technique to calculate the stress intensity factors for various loading conditions because only the stress analysis of an uncracked model is required. In this paper the mixed-mode stress intensity factors for cracks in bolted joints are obtained by weight function method, in which the coefficients of weight function are determined by finite element analyses for reference loadings. Critical inclined angle that mode I stress intensity factor becomes maximum is determined and the effects of crack length and the magnitude of clearance on critical inclined angle are investigated.

In this paper, we apply multiresolution wavelet transform for the digital image watermarking. For better result, we insert watermark into the images and set a proper weighting factor for each subband based on HVS model. With proposed algorithm, we confirm that the image quality is satisfactory and this method outperforms the previous methods against image compression and cropping.

본 연구는 일정 지역의 확률론적 지진위험도 (Probabilistic Seismic Hazard) 평가와 관련하여 전문가가 제시한 제1차 입력자료를 이용하여 제2차 입력자료를 도출할 때 입력자료의 다단계화를 통하여 각 단계별 구간의 입력자료가 확률론적 지진위험도 불확실성에 미치는 상대적 영향을 분석하였다. 확률론적 지진위험도 분석을 위하여 미국지질조사연구소 (USGS) 및 미국 로렌스리버모어 연구소(LLNL)가 개발한 전산코드를 각각 이용하였고 또한 전문가가 제시한 제 1차 입력자료는 기존 연구보고서에서 주어진 자료를 이용하였다. 분석결과 지진활동도 변수 특히 지진규모의 각 단계 및 감쇠특성함수의 진앙거리 단계에 따라서 확률론적 지진위험도의 절대값 및 불확실성에 미치는 영향의 차이가 상대적으로 크다는 것이 확인되었다. 또한 부지별로 이러한 분석을 함으로서 확률론적 지진 위험도 곡선에 영향을 미치는 임의 부지에 고유한 임계 지진규모 및 임계 진앙거리에 대한 분석을 통하여 전반적으로 불확실성을 감소시킬 수 있다.

The 3D tooth model in which each tooth can be manipulated individualy is essential component for the orthodontic simulation and implant simulation in dental field. For the reconstruction of such a tooth model, we need an image segmentation algorithm capable of separating individual tooth from neighboring teeth and alveolar bone. In this paper we propose a CT image normalization method and adaptive optimal thresholding algorithm for the segmenation of tooth region in CT image slices. The proposed segmentation algorithm is based on the fact that the shape and intensity of tooth change gradually among CT image slices. It generates temporary boundary of a tooth by using the threshold value estimated in the previous imge slice, and compute histograms for the inner region and the outer region seperated by the temporary boundary. The optimal threshold value generating the finnal tooth region is computed based on these two histogram.

In this study, the uncertainties in the critical flow functions (CFFs) calculated by the AGA8-dc equation of state were estimated. To this end, the formulas for enthalpy, entropy, and speed of sound, which are used in calculating the CFF, were expressed in the form of dimensionless Helmholtz free energy and its derivatives, and the uncertainty in Helmholtz free energy was inferred. To consider the variations in the compressibility-dependent variables induced by the variation (i.e., uncertainty) in compressibility, the form of the AGA8-dc equation was modified to have a deviation equal to the uncertainty under each flow condition. For each independent uncertainty component of the CFF, a model for uncertainty contribution was developed. All these changes were applied to GASSOLVER, which is KOGAS's thermodynamic database. As a result, the uncertainties in the CFF were estimated to be 0.025, 0.055, and 0.112 % at 10, 50, and 100 bar, respectively, and are seen to increase with the increase in pressure. Furthermore, these results could explain the deviations in the CFFs across the different labs in which the CFF international comparison test was conducted under the ISO management in 1999.

A concept of a VSA (Virtual Source Array) is the method for an acoustic spatio-temporal focus at a selected location in the outbound direction with respect to the VSA without the need of a probe source as combines a TRP (Time-Reversal Processing) and time-delay and beam-steering. However, in TRP using the VSA concept, it is limited to the critical angle and the short distances relevant to the VSA. In this paper, the waveguide invariant theory is applied to the VSA concept to refocus the received field at ranges greater other than the critical angle and the short ranges by shifting the focused field. The suggested method is verified via numerical simulation, and the results show that the robust acoustic focusing is achieved on the selected location regardless of the limitation on the conventional VSA concept.

The pseudophase separation model is used to describe the effects of pH and n-propanol on the mixed micellar formation of protonated and unprotonated dimethyldodecylamine oxides. Dimethyl-dodecylamine oxide surfactant molecules may exist in aqueous solution in either nonionic (unprotonated) or cationic (protonated) form, and they can be modeled thermodynamically as a binary mixture of cationic and nonionic surfactants. The composition of the binary mixture is varied by adjusting the solution pH. And activities, micellar compositions, and monomeric compositions of two surfactant species can be calculated directly from the experimental titration data by applying pseudophase separation model to the micellar system of DDAO in water/n-propanol. The critical micellar concentrations and the p$K_a$ values of the binary mixture systems are dependent on the micellar composition of the protonated cationic surfactant (X); especially they show the minimum phenomena when they are plotted against the micellar composition of the protonated cationic surfactant (X). The critical micellar concentration of the binary mixed DDAO system is generally decreased when n-propanol is added to the binary mixture system, and the degree of decrease is dependent on the concentration of n-propanol.

구조감쇠가 복합적층판의 초음속 패널 플러터에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위해 에너지법을 활용하여 지배방정식을 유도하였다. 구조 모델링은 일반적인 고전 적층판 이론을 적용하고 이의 해석은 진동 모우드를 가정하는 Rayleigh-Ritz법을 이용하였다. 비정상 공기력은 피스톤 이론(piston theory)을 적용하였다. 구조감쇠가 패널의 플러터에 미치는 일반적인 영향을 고찰하기 위해 등방성 평판의 구조감쇠의 크기에 따른 임계동압을 계산하였으며 이로부터 구조감쇠가 플러터 안정성을 감소시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 복합적층판의 적층각에 따른 임계동압을 계산하여 패널 플러터와 구조감쇠와의 관계를 파악하였다. 구조감쇠는 낮은 공력감쇠에서는 플러터 안정성에 중요한 역할을 하지만 높은 공력감쇠에서는 거의 영향을 미치지 않았다.

임계 암호시스템은 현대 암호학에서 중요한 한 축을 이루는 암호학의 한 분야이다. 본 논문에서는 임계 암호시스템의 근간이 되는 비밀 분산(Secret Sharing)의 한 분야인 (k, n) threshold scheme에서 능동적 비밀 분산 (Proactive Secret Sharing)을 위한 공유(Share)갱신 방법을 개선한 새로운 공유 갱신 방법을 제안한다. 이전 방법은 각 참여자당 O(n$^2$)의 모듈라 멱승 연산을 수행하는데 비하여 제안 방법은 O(n)의 모듈라 멱승 연산만으로 공유갱신이 가능하다. 이와 함께 본 논문에서는 k ＜(1/2)n-1인 경우에 대하여 제안 방법의 안전함을 증명한다.
