The paper describes the incorporation of an algebraic stress model(ASM) of turbulence in to a semi-elliptic solution procedure for the prediction of turbulent flow in passage around a 180.deg. square sectioned bend. The numerical results are obtained from a finite-volume discretization with applications of QUICK scheme and full find grid system without PSL approximation. Results show that the better agreements in velocity profiles with experimental data than those from k, $\varepsilon$ equation model with wall function and PSL are obtained. Predictions of Reynolds stresses also show good agreements with the experimental data.

A vibration power minimization model is developed, based on the mobility matrix method, for a vibration isolation system consisting of a vibrating source placed on an elastic support structure through multiple resilient mounts. This model is applied to investigate the design optimization of an X-Y motion stage-based vibration isolation system used in semiconductor wire-bonding equipment. By varying the stiffness coefficients of the resilient mounts while constraining the dynamic displacement amplitudes of the X-Y motion stage, the total power flow from the X-Y motion stage (the vibrating source) to the equipment table (the elastic support structure) is minimized at each frequency interval in the concerned frequency range for different stiffnesses of the equipment table. The results show that when the equipment table is relatively flexible, the optimal design based on the proposed vibration power inimization model gives significantly little power flow than that obtained using a conventional vibration force minimization model at some critical frequencies. When the equipment table is rigid enough, both models provide almost the same predictions on the total power flow.

Phosphate is the limiting factor leading to the eutrophication in nature and has been usually removed by the luxury uptake of PAOs(Phosphate accumulating organisms). The purpose of this study was the control of wastewater treatment removing phosphorus. The control of wastewater treatment process was performed by optimal and adaptive control. They were performed as followings. Firstly the inflow phosphate concentration was measured and the optimal aeration time was calculated by simplified ASM No. 2 for the phosphate to be 1.0 mg/L in effluent. It was optimal control. But when the phosphate concentration in effluent was not 1.0 mg/L, adaptive control was necessary to coincide the objective of control with real value. Then it was performed as the objective phosphate concentration in effluent was changed according to calculation of errors and it was adaptive control. The wastewater treatment process had been controlled by them for about one month. The range of phosphate concentration in effluent 0.2$\sim$3.2 mg/L and the average of it was 1.0 mg/L. The limitation of luxury uptake occurred two times while wastewater treatment process was running. After the analysis of laboratory tests, we knew the reasons were the shortage of ammonia nitrogen and the excessive aeration.

Process analysis with ASM3 (Activated Sludge Model3) was performed to offer basic data for the optimization of aerated biofilter (ABF) process design and operation. This study was focused on the simulation of the nitrification reaction in ABF which was a part of the advanced nutrient treatment process using bio-adsorption. The ABF process has been developed for the removal of suspended solids and nitrification reaction in sewage. A GPS-X (General Purpose Simualtor-X) was used for the sensitivity analysis and operation assessment. Sensitivity of ASM3 parameters on ABF was analysed and 4 major parameters ($Y_A$, $k_{sto}$, ${\mu}_A$, $K_{A,HN}$) were determined by dynamic simulation using 70 days data from pilot plant operation. The optimized values were 0.14 for $Y_A$, 3.5/d for $k_{sto}$, 2.7/d for ${\mu}_A$ and 1.1 mg/L for $K_{A,HN}$, respectively. Simulation with optimized parameter values were conducted and TN, $NH_4{^+}-N$ and $NO_3{^-}-N$ concentrations were estimated and compared with measured data at the range of 10 min to 4 hrs of hydraulic retention time (HRT). The simulated results showed that optimized parameter values could represent the characteristics of ABF process. Especially, the ABF showed relatively high nitrification rate (60%) under very short HRT of 10 min. As a consequence, the ABF was thought to be successfully used in the site which having high variation of influent loading rate.

The flow around a ship is complex, especially, at the stern region of a full ship, where highly curved streamlines, hook-shaped iso-velocity contours, and strong secondary flow exist. To resolve this complex flow, an Algebraic Stress Model(ASM) is applied. The calculations are performed for the HSVA Tanker. The results are improved comparing with those of standard k-ε turbulence model, but still show a little difference from the experiments.

Numerous sets of simulation were conducted in order to find out the optimum operational conditions of the existing BNR process using GPS-X program. The model of ASM3 and modified Bio-P module were applied for simulations. From the result of this study, effluent quality was closely related with the step feeding rate and influent C/N ratio. The effluent TN concentration seemed to be significantly affected by step feeding rate at the low C/N condition. But at the high C/N condition, the effluent concentration of TP rather than that of TN was affected by the control of step feeding rate.

Since audio speech recognition is affected by noise in real environment, visual speech recognition is used to support speech recognition. For the visual speech recognition, this paper suggests the extraction of lip-feature using two types of image segmentation and reduced ASM. Input images are transformed to YCbCr based images and lips are segmented using the contrast of Y/Cb/Cr between lip and face. Subsequently, lip-shape model trained by PCA is placed on segmented lip region and then lip features are extracted using ASM.

The goal of this paper is to develop an on-board controller for a model helicopter's hovering attitude control, using i8096 one-chip microcontroller. Required controller algorithm is programmed in ASM-96 assembly language and downloaded into an i8096 microcontroller. The performance of hovering flight using this system is verified by experiments with the model helicopter mounted on an instrumented flight stand where 3 potentiometers and an optical proximity sensor measure te attitude and main rotor speed of the helicopter.

This paper proposes the method of facial expression recognition based on decision tree structure. In the image of facial expression, ASM(Active Shape Model) and LBP(Local Binary Pattern) make the local features of a facial expressions extracted. The discriminant features gotten from local features make the two facial expressions of all combination classified. Through the sum of true related to classification, the combination of facial expression and local region are decided. The integration of branch classifications generates decision tree. The facial expression recognition based on decision tree shows better recognition performance than the method which doesn't use that.

In this paper we proposed a hierarchical ASM for real-time tracking of non-rigid objects. For tracking an object we used ASM for estimating object contour possibly with occlusion. Moreover, to reduce the processing time we used hierarchical approach for real-time tacking. In the next frame we estimated the initial feature point by using Kalman filter. We also added block matching algorithm for increasing accuracy of the estimation. The proposed hierarchical, prediction-based approach was proven to out perform the exiting non-hierarchical, non-prediction methods.
