The global increase in population and subsequent scarcity of terrestrial living spaces necessitates exploration of alternative habitats. Research into the development of underwater living areas provides promising avenues for the expansion of human living spaces and the use of marine environments. This study focuses on the failure envelope of suction caisson foundations subjected to combined loads in a marine setting, utilizing finite element analysis. The foundation is assumed to be embedded in clay characterized by a linear increase in undrained shear strength with depth, employing the von Mises constitutive model for the clay. The resulting failure envelope is represented as a tilted ellipse which expands as the undrained shear strength increases, maintaining a constant ratio between the major and minor axes. A comparative analysis of two suction caisson foundations with varying length-to-diameter ratios revealed that this ratio influences the dimensions of the failure envelope, with a tendency for the major-to-minor axis ratio to increase as the length-to-diameter ratio increases. These findings are critical for the design of suction caisson foundations in offshore environments.

The Generalized Hoek-Brown (GHB) criterion is a nonlinear failure criterion specialized for rock engineering applications and has recently seen increased usage. However, the GHB criterion expresses the relationship between minimum and maximum principal stresses at failure, and when GSI≠100, it has disadvantage of being difficult to express as an explicit relationship between the normal and shear stresses acting on the failure plane, i.e., as a Mohr failure envelope. This disadvantage makes it challenging to apply the GHB criterion in numerical analysis techniques such as limit equilibrium analysis, upper-bound limit analysis, and the critical plane approach. Consequently, recent studies have attempted to express the GHB Mohr failure envelope as an approximate analytical formula, and there is still a need for continued interest in related research. This study presents improved formulations for the approximate GHB Mohr failure envelope, offering higher accuracy in predicting shear strength compared to existing formulas. The improved formulation process employs a method to enhance the approximation accuracy of the tangential friction angle and utilizes the tangent line equation of the nonlinear GHB failure envelope to improve the accuracy of shear strength approximation. In the latter part of this paper, the advantages and limitations of the proposed approximate GHB failure envelopes in terms of shear strength prediction accuracy and calculation time are discussed.

TiO$_2$ thin films have been grown by MOCVD. Envelope methods are applied to the analysis of the transmission spectra to obtain the optical constants such as refractive indices and extinction coefficients for the TiO$_2$ thin films. The envelope methods are proved to be accurate by simulating the transmission spectra. TiO$_2$ thin films start to crystallize at 35$0^{\circ}C$ and then crystallize fully into anatase phase at foot or higher temperatures. Activation energies are obtained by plotting the deposition rate with varying the substrate temperature. It is 17.8 kcal/mol for the reaction limited regions. The refractive infer and the extinction coefficient of the TiO$_2$ thin film at λ=632.8 nm increases from 2.19 to 2.32 and decreases from 0.021 to 0.007, respectively, as the substrate temperature increases from 400 to $600^{\circ}C$.

In the course of performing the stability analysis of rock structures, there are times when the strength of the Hoek-Brown rock mass needs to be understood in terms of the internal friction angle and cohesion. In this case, the original Hoek-Brown criteion, giving the relationship between ${\sigma}_1$ and ${\sigma}_3$ at failure, have to be transformed to the corresponding Mohr envelope. A new approach to derive the Mohr envelope of the Hoek-Brown criterion is suggested in this study. The new method is based on the Londe's transformation making the stress components dimensionless. The correctness of the derivation leading to the new ${\tau}-{\sigma}$ relationship is confirmed by comparing the calculation results with the Bray's solution through a verification example.

본 논문에서는 MPEG-4 HE-AAC의 SBR 부호기의 효율을 개선하기 위해 예측 SBR(Predictive-SBR)을 제안한다. SBR 부호기는 주부호기(core encoder)와 결합하여 적은 비트량으로 고주파 성분을 복원할 수 있게 한다. 본 논문에서는 SBR 데이터의 약 70%를 차지하는 포락선 정보를 부호화하는 방법을 개선하여 효율성을 높이고자 한다. 기존 SBR은 포락선 정보의 전송을 위해 다음과 같은 방법을 이용한다. 먼저 고주파 대역의 에너지를 스케일팩터 밴드 단위로 계산한다. 다음으로, 전송정보량의 감소를 위해 델타 코딩 방식을 이용하여 에너지 정보를 부호화한다. 본 논문에서는 SBR의 포락선 정보를 효과적으로 감축하기 위하여 고주파 대역의 에너지를 예측하는 방법을 이용한다. SBR 부호기의 입력 데이터가 SBR 복호기의 입력데이터와 동일하다는 가정 하에 선형 회귀(linear-regression) 기법을 이용하여 고주파 대역의 에너지를 추정한다. 그 후에 추정된 에너지와 원래의 고주파 대역 에너지의 오차를 델타 코딩을 이용하여 부호화한다. 정보를 전송할 때는 고주파 대역 에너지의 델타 코드와 예측 SBR에서 계산한 오차의 델타 코드 중 부호화에 필요한 비트량이 적은 방식을 선택하여 부호화하도록 한다. 그 결과 약 10% 정도의 정보량 감축 효과를 얻을 수 있다.

In this paper, when the current optical communication system is used for the DWDM. The FBG filter for the DWDN is able to reduce the interferences between the adjacent channels. In this paper, therefore, we find the relection spectrums for the three types of induced index changes, that is, uniform, Gaussian apodized, and raised-cosine apodized. From the obtained result in this paper, we can see that uniform FBG does not fit, and that the smaller the maximum induced index change $\sigma$ is and the larger the value of parameter C in the raised-cosine apodized FBG and G in the Gaussian apodized FBG are the fitter they are on the narrow filter for DWDM.

In this research, a lot of triaxial test results (CID) are analyzed to study the curvature characteristics of failure envelope of sand and parametric relationship between shear strength and state parameter by Been and Jefferies. In the conventional triaxial tests, correction for the change of sectional area of a sample and for membrane influence is essential especially in order to determine critical state (or steady state) condition more correctly. Based on the test results, a model to express the shear strength of fine sand as a function of density and stress level is presented and curvature characteristics of shear failure envelope and parametric relationship between state parameter and shear strength parameters are evaluated.

음성인식, 합성 및 분석과 같은 음성신호처리 분야에 있어서 피치검출이나 포만트검출은 매우 중요하다. 주파수 영역의 스펙트럼 신호는 잡음이 부가되는 경우에도 고조파정보와 포만트 포락선 정보를 유지하기 때문에 음성신호처리분야에서 매우 유용하다고 할 수 있다. 고조파 정보나 포만트 포락선 정보는 피치검출과 포만트 주파수 검출에 직접 이용된다 하지만 두 성분을 분리하는 방법에 따라 피치검출이나 포만트 주파수 검출에 영향을 미칠 수 있으므로 기존의 방법보다 두 성분을 더 잘 분리할 수 있는 방법이 필요한 것이다. 본 논문에서는 스펙트럼 신호를 최대한 평탄화시킴으로써 포만트의 영향을 제거하고 고조파 성분을 분리해 내어 이를 피치검출에 사용한다. LSP를 이용하여 적응적 밴드에서 평탄화를 시도하고 이를 피치 검출에 이용하였다.
