Granular compaction piles increase the load bearing capacity of the soft ground and reduce the settlement of fecundation built on the reinforced soil. Also the granular compaction piles accelerate the consolidation of soft ground using the granular materials such as sand, gravel, stone etc. However, this method is one of unuseful methods in Korea. In the present study, the estimation procedure for the ultimate bearing capacity of randomly installed granular compaction pile group is proposed. Also, carbon rod tests have been peformed for verifying the group effect of granular compaction piles and the behavior characteristics such as bulging failure zone on granular compaction piles. From the test results, it is found that bulging failure shape of granular compaction piles was conical shape and the ultimate bearing capacity increased as the spacing of piles became gradually narrow. Also, from the proposed method in this study, the optimal locations of granular compaction piles with various installed cases are analyzed. The results were shown that the bearing capacity was increased in the case concentrated on the central part of pile group.

Ganglion cysts are commonly observed cystic tumor in association with the joints and tendons of the appendicular skeleton. In this paper we propose a method to extract ganglion cysts from ultrasound images with intelligent image processing. The method consists of fuzzy stretching preprocessing to enhance the contrast between related organs and 8-directional contour tracking to model the boundaries of the cysts and labelling procedure to compute the size of cysts. In experiment, we verified that the proposed method extracts ganglion cysts accurately from ultrasound images.

대장과 소장에서 모두 폐색 영역을 검출하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 기존에 연구된 장 폐색 영역 검출 방법과 ART2 알고리즘을 이용한 대장 폐색 영역과 소장 폐색 영역을 검출하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 기존에 연구된 방법을 이용하여 ROI 영역을 추출한 후, 추출된 ROI 영역을 ART2 알고리즘을 이용하여 영상을 군집화 한다. 군집화된 ROI 영역과 기존에 연구된 방법으로 X-ray 영상에서 검출한 장 폐색 영역의 형태학적 특징을 비교 및 분석하여 장 폐색의 형태학적 특징을 포함하는 클러스터를 분석한다. 따라서 장 폐색 영역에 해당되는 클러스터로 분류된 영역 내부를 클러스터의 중심에 해당되는 픽셀로 모두 대체한다. 그리고 $3^*3$ 필터를 이용한 침식과 팽창 연산을 적용하여 잡음을 제거한다. 잡음이 제거된 영상에서 각 객체들을 라벨링한 후에 크기를 비교하여 배경과 기타 지방 영역을 제거하고 남은 객체들을 장 폐색 영역으로 검출한다. 제안된 추출 방법을 장 폐색 X-ray 영상을 대상으로 실험한 결과, 기존에 연구된 방법으로 추출에 성공한 대장 장 폐색 영상과 추출에 실패한 소장 폐색 영상 모두에서 추출되는 것을 확인하였다.

사회적 컴퓨팅(social computing)의 현상이 Web 2.0 공급사슬(supply chain)의 변화관점에서 새로운 변화의 단계를 맞이하고 있다. Web 2.0 플랫폼을 어떤 형태로 기업 활동에 활용할 것인가 하는 문제제기에 대하여 다양한 기업 활동의 변화사례가 발견되고 있다. 본 논문은 그와 같은 다양한 Web 2.0 환경 확산에 대한 기업 활동의 변화현상 중에서 Web 2.0 플랫폼을 기반으로 한 신제품개발(New Product Development) 사례연구를 통하여 진행한 결과를 반영하였다. 신제품 개발을 위한 플랫폼으로서 Web 2.0 의 협업적 환경을 설계하게 될 경우, 고객의 내재적 요구사항(latent requirement)이 제품개발에 효과적으로 반영될 수 있도록 하는 절차(process)가 기존의 제품개발방법론과 연관되어, 어떤 형태로 적용되고 개선되어 발전될 수 있는가에 대한 경험적 사례를 사례연구방법의 탐험적 경향을 활용하여 살펴보았다. 본 논문에서 다루어졌던 사례는 Web 2.0 플랫폼을 기반으로 사용자 창작 콘텐츠(User Created Content)를 생산하고 증가된 연세대학교 UCC의 양적 팽창에 의해서 수익모델이 발생하는 전형적인 Web 2.0 비즈니스 모델의 구조를 보여주는 경우였다. 본 연구를 통해서 사용자의 내재적 요구사향을 Web 2.0 기술특성을 통해서 참여적 사용자, 혹은 사용자 디자이너들의 적극적인 활동에 의해서 개선 및 구현해 가는 과정을 구체적 개발방법론의 틀로서 정착하려는 시도를 하였다.

In the information society public libraries are situated in a rapidly changing social environment. Coming of post-printing era, expansion of knowledge, enhancement of social reflexivity, and growing flexibility of jobs, etc are bringing both crisis and opportunity to them. In order to take chances public libraries must collect materials in D/B format as well as printed and computer-file forms, and enlarge assistance to educational and research activities of residents and business firms. In addition, they must contribute to reducing information divide, increasing communal interactions, and providing leisure activities. It is required for them to develop a variety of programs and strengthen publicity among residents.

This paper is concerned with the design of optimal surface heating patterns that result in focusing acoustic energy inside a subsurface target volume at a specified target time. The surface of the solid is heated by an incident laser beam which gives rise to shear and compressional waves propagating into the solid. The optimal heating design process aims to achieve the desired energy focusing at the target with minimal laser power densities and minimal system disturbance away from the target. The optimality conditions are secured via the conjugated gradient method and by the finite element method along with using the half-space Green's function matrix. Good quality energy focusing is achived with the optimal designs reflecting the high directivity of the photothermally generated shear wave patterns.

Morphology and histochemical characteristics of the alimentary tract in surfperch, Ditrema temmincki were investigated by histological observation. The relative length of gut(RLG) in surfperch, that is the postpharyngeal portion of the alimentary tract, is about 0.89 to standard length. The absence of a stomach, which is the part of expantion of the alimentary tract between esophageal end and the entrance of the bile duct into the intestine, was observed. The alimentary tract is divided into the esophagus, esophageal-intestine part, anterior intestine, mid intestine, posterior intestine, intestinorectum part, rectum, rectal-anus part, and anus by morphology and histochemical features. Morphology of mucosal folds is the most complexity in the rectum and the tunica muscularis of the esophagus and anus is more advanced than those of other parts. The epithelial layers of mucosal folds consist of columnar epithelium except for cuboidal cells of the anterior part of the esophagus. The goblet cells and polysaccharide absorptive cells were observed in the alimentary tract. Nutritive polysaccharide is mainly absorbed by the absorptive cells in the posterior intestine of the surfperch.

This paper aims to detect Speed Bump by using Omni-directional Camera and to suggest Real-time update scheme of Speed Bump through Vision Based Approach. In order to detect Speed Bump from sequence of camera images, noise should be removed as well as spot estimated as shape and pattern for speed bump should be detected first. Now that speed bump has a regular form of white and yellow area, we extracted speed bump on the road by applying erosion and dilation morphological operations and by using the HSV color model. By collecting huge panoramic images from the camera, we are able to detect the target object and to calculate the distance through GPS log data. Last but not least, we evaluated accuracy of obtained result and detection algorithm by implementing SLAMS (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping system).

With aiming to prepare microcapsules having a particle size of $30-50{\mu}m$, thermally expandable capsules with relatively uniform particle sizes consisting of a n-octane/poly(acrylonitrile-co-methyl methacrylate) core/shell structure were synthesized using SPG membrane emulsification and suspension polymerization. Four steric stabilizers and five crosslinking agents were employed. When poly(vinyl alcohol) as a stabilizer was used, the prepared capsules showed a smooth and regular morphology and the liquid hydrocarbon (n-octane) was well encapsulated in the core. When 1,4-butnaediol methacrylate (BDDMA) was used as a crosslinker, the uniform capsules with the average diameter of $36.8{\mu}m$ were synthesized. The capsules prepared with 0.05 mol% BDDMA showed the best encapsulation efficiency.
