This study presents numerical solutions of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations for supersonic unsteady flow in a convergent-divergent nozzle with a isolator. The TVD scheme in generalized coordinates is employed in order to calculate the moving shock waves caused by thermal choking. We discuss on transient characteristics, unstart phenomena, fluctuations of specific thrust caused by thermal choking and effects of isolator. The adverse pressure gradient caused by heat addition brings about separation of the wall boundary layers and formation of the oblique shock wave that proceed to upstream. The proceeding speed of the oblique shock wave to upstream direction for the convergent-divergent nozzle with isolator is lower than that for the nozzle without isolator.

A specially designed model open -ended pile, which was composed of inner tube and outer tube, wry driven in the pressure chamber by two diffenent intallation methods, that is, impact -driving and vibratory driving, and static compression loading test was done for that pile. Through the measurement of bearing capacities in the separated resisting parts of open -ended pile, bearing mechanism of open-ended pile and soil plugging behaviors for different installation methods were studied. It appears that 20% out of soil plugging force of impact -driven pile was developed during driving, while the rest was developed during static compression loading and t.he magnitude of confining pressure applied to the chamber did not affect soil plugging behavior. Also. it appears that, soil plugging force of vibratory pile was not developed during driving, while it was developed weakly as about 0.5~0.7 times as that of impact pile during static compression loading. and the confining pressure of pressure rhamber had an effect on the soil plugging. In the ultimate loading condition unit soil plugging force did not approach to the failure condition.

Human pose estimation is a method of estimating a posture by extracting a human joint key point. When occlusion occurs, the joint key point extraction performance is lowered because the human joint is covered. The occlusion phenomenon is largely divided into three types of actions: self-contained, covered by other objects, and covered by background. In this paper, we propose an effective posture estimation method using a masking phenomenon enhancement technique. Although the posture estimation method has been continuously studied, research on the occlusion phenomenon of the posture estimation method is relatively insufficient. To solve this problem, the author proposes a data augmentation technique that intentionally masks human joints. The experimental results in this paper show that the intentional use of the blocking phenomenon enhancement technique is strong against the blocking phenomenon and the performance is increased.

Some infrastructure these days is usually constructed under the ground for it to not interfere the foot-traffic of pedestrians, and thus, it is difficult to visually confirm the accurate location of the site where the establishments must be buried. These technical difficulties increase the magnitude of the problems that could arise from over-reliance on the experience of the worker or a mere blueprint. Such problems include exposure to flood and collapse. This paper proposes a constructor-oriented visualization system via mobile gadgets in general construction sites with occluded structures. This proposal is consisted with three stages. First, "Stage of detecting manhole and extracting features" detects and extracts the basis point of occluded structures which is unoccluded manhole. Next, "Stage of tracking features" tracks down the extracted features in the previous stage. Lastly, "Stage of visualizing occluded constructions" analyzes and synthesizes the GPS data and 3D objects obtained from mobile gadgets in the previous stages. This proposal implemented ideal method through parallel analysis of manhole detection, feature extraction, and tracking techniques in indoor environment, and confirmed the possibility through occluded water-pipe augmentation in real environment. Also, it offers a practical constructor-oriented environment derived from the augmented 3D results of occluded water-pipings.

The maxillary defects lead to anatomical and functional deformity of the maxillofacial region. As far as functions are concerned, such defects can produce difficulty in speech, mastication, and deglutition. Obturator prostheses play a very important role in functional recovery for post-maxillectomy patients. To achieve rigidity of the obturator, appropriate retention should be given, and the weight of the prosthesis be reduced. There are two types of hollow bulb obturator: open and closed. A closed type has many advantages. Nevertheless, some problems, including complexity of fabrication and water leakage into the bulb, have the closed hollow obturator not be widely used. The one-step polymerization technique described in this case overcomes the shortcomings by easily constructing a small hollow bulb with two thermoplastic resin sheets.

고해상도 위성영상의 분류 기술은 최근 가장 활발히 연구되고 있는 분야 중 하나로 텍스쳐(texture), NDVI, PCA 영상 등 다양한 전처리 정보들을 추출하고 이를 멀티스펙트럴 밴드와 조합하여 분류 정확도를 높이는 기술을 개발하는 연구들이 주를 이루고 있다. 고해상도 위성영상에서 건물의 그림자와 옆벽면의 폐색 지역은 개체 추출 및 분류를 방해하는 주된 요인이 되며, 다양한 형태와 분광특성을 갖는 개개의 건물은 자동 분류 과정을 통해 제대로 식별되지 않는다는 한계를 갖는다. 이에 본 연구에서는 KOMPSAT-2 단영상으로부터 효율적으로 건물 정보 및 토지피복을 분류하기 위하여, 추출된 건물 정보를 바탕으로 건물의 그림자와 폐색지역을 보정한 후 비건물 지역에 대한 분류를 수행하여 분류 정확도를 높이고자 하였다. 우선 삼각벡터구조 기반의 반자동 인터페이스를 이용하여 건물의 3차원 모델 및 그림자 영역을 추출하고 이로부터 추출된 그림자 영역을 효과적으로 보정하기 위해 반복 선형회귀 연산을 이용한 그림자 보정을 수행한 후 inpainting 기법을 건물 폐색영역 복원에 적용하여 영상의 품질을 향상시켰다. 이러한 과정을 통해 도심 지역의 영상 분석에 있어 가장 큰 오차를 일으키는 인공물의 그림자와 폐색에 의한 오차를 최소화한 후 분류에 적용하여 이를 보정 전 영상을 이용한 분류 결과와 비교하였다.

본 논문에서는 스테레오 정합에서 불연속성과 폐색영역을 고려하고 다중 계층 구조를 사용한 relaxation 알고리듬을 이용하여 좌우 영상간의 최적의 정합점을 찾는 스테레오 정합을 구현하였다. 잡음을 제거하기 위해 베이시안 필터링 방법을 사용하였다. 좌우 영상에서 얻은 변이(disparity)를 이용하여 좌우 폐색영역(occlusion region)을 구한 후, 다시 최적의 변이를 얻기 위해 내삼과정을 통해 양쪽의 정보를 상호 보완하는 병렬적인 relaxation 방법을 구현한다. 구현한 방법은 다양한 영상에 적용하였다.

종래의 케도회로를 사용하지 않는 무선통신기반의 이동폐색방식 열차제어시스템에서는, 궤도회로에 의한 폐색구간를 기반으로 하는 종래의 연동제어논리를 더 이상 사용할 수 없게 된다. 이와 같이 궤도회로를 사용하지 않고 역구내에서의 진로제어를 수행하기 위한 연동논리를 구축하기 위하여, 역구내에서, 장내 및 불발과 분기기 구간 위치에서 가상 섹션을 두어서 열차의 진입 유무를 고정폐색방식으로 치환하고, 진로관리와 연쇄, 선로전환기 제어와 쇄정, 신호제어등의 연동논리를 구축하는 방안을 제시하였다.

A new technology on video frame rate up-conversion (FRUC) is presented by combining the median filter and motion estimation (ME) with an occlusion detection (OD) method. First, ME is performed to have a motion vector. Then, the OD method is used to refine motion vector in the occlusion region. Since the wrong motion vector can be obtained with high possibility in the occluded area, a median filtering that less depends on the motion vector is applied to that area, and since the motion vector is continuous and robust in the non-occluded area, BDMC(Bi-Directional Motion Compensated interpolation) is applied to obtain interpolated image in that area. BDMC using the bi-directional motion vectors achieves good results when continuity and robustness of the motion vector is higher. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm provides better performance than the conventional approach. The average gain of PSNR (Peak Signal to Noise Ratio) is approximately 0.16 dB in the test sequences compared with BDMC.
