Determination of type of a vehicle is being used in various areas such as collecting tolls, collecting statistical traffic data and traffic prognosis. Because most of the vehicle type classification systems depend on vehicle length indirectly or directly, highly reliable automatic vehicle length measurement system is crucial for them. This study makes use of a pencil beam laser rangemeter and devises a mechanical device which rotates the laser rangemeter. The implemented system measures the range between a point and the laser rangemeter then indicates it as a spherical coordinate. We obtain several silhouettes of cross section of the vehicle, the rate of change of the silhouettes, signs of the rates then squares the rates to apply cell averaging constant false alarm rate (CA-CFAR) technique to find out where the border is between the vehicle and the background. Using the border and trigonometry, we calculated the length of the vehicle and confirmed that the calculated vehicle length is about 94% of actual length.

The national geodetic reference frame of Korea switched to the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF) in 2003. In order to study the land area changes, we calculated the entire land area of Korea using the administrative boundaries of census data provided by Statistics Korea. The standard transformation procedure by the National Geographic Information Institute (NGII) was followed. The Transverse Mercator (TM) projected coordinates were transformed into the GRS80-based world geodetic reference frame, and the ellipsoidal and the projected areas were calculated. The provinces that range over two projection origins were divided into two polygons and projected using appropriate origins. After the transformation, all boundaries were shifted in the northwestern direction, resulting in a decreased area of $1.36km^2$ (about 0.0013%) on the projected plane. Moving the boundaries into a high latitude area cancels out the effect of the enlarged ellipsoid. In addition, the rate of change shows that a higher-latitude province is more sensitive to the shift of the boundaries. The data by Statistics Korea is significantly different from those of the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs (MLTM), thus it is urgently recommended that the data are integrated and unified.

This study was devoted to elucidating the change in the flow characteristics of a laminar flow past a circular cylinder by modifying the cylinder shape with O-grooves. A numerical analysis was performed in a two-dimensional framework. The cylinder was represented using an immersed boundary method and marker particles on a Cartesian grid system. The number and locations of the O-grooves were the key parameters. An analysis of the flow pattern and flow-induced forces was performed at Re = 40 and 50. In addition, we calculated the critical Reynolds number depending on the number of O-grooves and their locations.

Bump mapping is a technique that represents the detailed parts of the object surface, such as a perturberance of the skin of a peanut, using the geometry mapping without complex modeling. However, the hardware implementation for bump mapping is considerable, because a large amount of per pixel computation, including the normal vector shading, is required. In this paper, we propose a new bump mapping algorithm using the polar coordinate system and its hardware architecture. Compared with other existing architectures, our approach performs bump mapping effectively by using a new vector rotation method for transformation into the reference space and minimizing illumination calculation. Consequently, our proposed architecture reduces a large amount of computation and hardware requirements.

난류응력은 순간속도성분을 시간평균성분과 편차성분의 합으로 보고 Navier-Stokes 방정식으로부터 Reynolds 방정식을 유도할 때 나타나게 된다. Reynolds 방정식으로부터 수심 적분된 천수방정식을 유도하는 과정에서 시간 평균된 유속성분을 수심 적분된 유속성분과 편차성분의 합으로 본다면, 분산응력 (dispersion stress)이라고 하는 추가적인 새로운 항이 잔류하게 된다. 점성응력, 난류응력, 그리고 분산응력을 통칭하여 유효응력 (effective stress)이라고 한다. 일반적으로 수심에 비해 수로 폭이 넓은 개수로에서는 유효응력이 흐름특성의 수치 근사해에 큰 영향을 미치지 못한다고 가정하여 2차원 수심적분 모형에서 유효응력을 생략하기도 한다. 또한 유효응력을 적용하더라도, 점성응력이 난류응력에 비해 무시할 만큼 작다고 가정하여 난류응력만을 적용하며, 분산응력은 무시된다. 하지만 만곡부에서는 원심력과 편수위로 인한 횡방향 압력의 불균형이 발생하기 때문에, 만곡부의 이차류가 발생되며, 유속의 연직방향 분포도 일정하지 않게 된다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 만곡부의 이차류 특성을 수심적분 2차원 모형에 반영하기 위해 분산응력을 고려한 모형의 개발 및 검증이다. 불규칙한 모의영역을 원활히 나타낼 수 있도록 곡선좌표계를 사용하는 여타 모형들과 달리 유한유소법을 이용하여 수치해를 구하며, 따라서 x, y 좌표축을 사용하는 데카르트 좌표계를 사용하여 지배방정식을 나타낸다. 분산응력의 유 무에 따른 수치결과를 Rozovskii의 $180^{\circ}$ 만곡수로 실내실험 자료와 비교하여 개발 모형을 검증한다.

In this paper, we proposed color image watermarking using human visual system. A watermark is embedded by transforming a color image of RGB coordinate into a color image of HSI coordinate with considering that chromatic components are less sensitive than achromatic components. Watermark is embedded in the frequency domain of the chromatic channels by using discrete cosine transform. Watermark is extracted from watermarked image by using inverse discrete cosine transform. To verify the proposed method, a standard image and a fingerprint image are used for the original image and the watermark image, respectively. Simulation results are satisfied with invisibility and robustness from attacks as image compression.

In this paper, we proposed the novel digital watermarking for color still image using the characteristics of human visual system and the distribution of DCT coefficients. We insert watermark signal in the chromatic components of YCrCb color space according the characteristics of the human visual system that chromatic component are less sensitive than achromatic components. In order to extract the watermark signal, we use the relationship among the DCT coefficients of watermarked image without using original one. Simulation results show that the proposed watermarking method is better quality on invisibility than the conventional methods.

In this paper, Inverted Coordinates Image Space (ICIS) is proposed as a solution for the problem of the unbounded accumulator space in the automatic detection of the finite/infinite vanishing points in image space. Since the ICIS is based on the direct transformation from the image space, it does not lose any geometrical information from the original image and it does not require camera calibration as opposed to the Gaussian sphere based methods. Moreover, the proposed method can accurately detect both the finite and infinite vanishing points under a small fixed memory amount as opposed to the conventional image space based methods. Experiments are conducted on various real images in architectural environments to show the advantages of the proposed approach over conventional methods.

본 연구에서는 곡면을 포함할 수도 있는 얇은 물체를 모델링하기 위해 새로운 기법을 도입했는데, 그 기본 개념은 다음과 같다. Fig.(a)에서와 같이 먼저 사용자 는 박판으로 불리는 두께가 없는 얇은 판을 여러장 가지고 이들을 접거나, 오려내거나, 붙이는 등의 작업을 통해서 원하는 형상으로 모델링한다.각각의 박판의 형상의 입 력은 거의 모두 2차원 좌표계에서 이루어지기 때문에, 사용자는 마치 철판위에 선을 긋는 것과 같이 쉽게 박판의 형상을 입력할 수 있다. 또한 박판에서 임의의 부분을 오려내거나 임의의 박판을 붙이는 등의 작업을 통해서 원하는 형상으로 모델링한다. 각각의 박판의 형상의 입력은 거의 모두 2차원 좌표계에서 이루어지기 때문에, 사용자 는 마치 철판위에 선을 긋는 것과 같이 쉽게 박판의 형상을 입력할 수 있다. 또한 박판에서 임의의 부분을 오려내거나 임의의 박판을 붙이는 등의 작업이 기존의 시스템 에서와는 달리 복잡한 입력이나, 수행과정을 거치지 않기 때문에, 보다 편리한 모델링 을 할 수 있다. 또한 곡면으로 된 박판 형상의 경우는 해당되는 모서리들을 곡선으 로 바꿈으로써 모델링 되도록 하였다. 박판의 모델링이 끝나면, 입력된 박판에 일정 한 두께를 부여하여 Fig.2(b)에서와 같이 부피를 갖는 입체(솔리드)로 변환하게 되는 데 이 작업은 Stroud에 의한 것과 같이 시스템에서 자동으로 이루어진다.

A process of 3-D particle image velocimetry, called here, as '3-D stereo PIV' was developed for the measurement of an illuminated slied section field of 3-D complex flows. The present method includes modeling of camera by a calibrator based on the homogeneous coordinate system, transfromation of the oblique-angled image to the right-angled image, identification of 2-D velocity vectors by 2-D cross-correlation equation, stereo matching of 2-D velocity vectors of two cameras, accurate calculation of 3-D velocity vectors by homogeneous coordinate system, removal of error vectors by a statistical method followed by a continuity equation criterior, and finally 3-D animation as the post processing. An experimental system was also used for the application of the proposed method. Three analog CCD cameras and an Argon-Ion Laser(300mW) for illumination were adopted to capture the wake flow behind a bluff obstacle.
