The main objective of this paper is to develop an improved model for the analysis of liquefaction potential and to predict excess pore pressure (EPP) using the proposed model that can simulate behavior of saturated sand under earthquake loading conditions. The damage concept is adopted for the development of the proposed model. For the development of the model, a general formulation based on experimental results and damage potential using cumulative absolute velocity (CAV) is proposed for a more realistic description of dynamic responses of saturated sand. Undrained dynamic triaxial tests are conducted using earthquake loading conditions. Based on test results, the NCER-NCW function in terms of $w_d$ and CAV is developed. Procedure for the evaluation of EPP and determination of model parameters for the proposed model is presented as well. For the determination of initial liquefaction, the minimum curvature method using the NCS-NCW curve is proposed. It is observed that predicted initial liquefaction using the proposed method agrees well with measured initial liquefaction. From results of additional undrained dynamic triaxial tests, it is seen that predicted EPP generation using the proposed model agrees well with measured results for earthquake loading cases.

본 논문에서는 고차통계에 의한 적응알고리즘 가운데 오차의 평균절대값삼승 (LMAT)을 최소화하는 알고리즘과 이미 널리 사용되고 있는 경쟁 알고리즘의 성능을 서로 비교 평가하였다. 사용된 입력선호가 Gaussian 분포를 갖는다는 가정하에, LMAT 알고리즘의 정상상태 추청오차에 대한 평균자승특성 근사식을 유도하였다. 유도된 근사식은 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 검증하였다. LMAT 알고리즘 및 경쟁 알고리즘들이 정상상태에서 같은 값의 평균자승추정오차를 갖는 경우에 대하여 각 알고리즘의 수렴속도를 비교하였고, LMAT 알고리즘의 우수한 수렴 성능을 알 수 있었다 특히, 입력신호의 eigenvalue spread ratio 및 measurement noise power 등 환경이 변화함에도 불구하고 LMAT 알고리즘이 여전히 나은 특성을 보임을 알 수 있었다.

The Monte Carlo method was used to evaluate the reliability of crash discrimination algorithms. Through the Fast Fourier Transformation, crash pulses obtained during frontal crash tests of a mini van and a sports utility vehicle were transformed to signals in the frequency domain, and the signals were divided into basic signals and changeable signals. The changeable signals were modified through random generation, and they were combined with the basic signals. Then, the combined signals were transferred back to the time domain. In this way numerous crash pulses could be generated. For the generated pulses, crash discrimination algorithms were evaluated by examining whether they did not result in air bag deployment for the pulses requiring no air bag deployment and whether they resulted in time-to-fires faster than required time-to-fires for the pulses requiring air bag deployment. The crash discrimination algorithm in which the absolute value of the deceleration change multiplied by the velocity change or the summation of the absolute value of the deceleration change was used as a metric was Proven to be highly reliable.

When developing railway vehicle system, investigation of the dynamical stability is essential as a virtual prototyping process. Not only the verification using the commercial analysis tools, systematic analysis using customized tools is also necessary, because these can give other points of view in stability, which is sometimes unable to evaluate in the former one. As a solver platform for customization, it is important to derive basic theory about flexible bodies and build flexible structure, which enables easy module insertion of user-created functions. In the paper, a flexible dynamic analysis system is developed, using absolute cartesian coordinate, modal coordinate and absolute nodal coordinate. Each coordinate system is verified by respective examples for every system. This solver system will play an important role for building the basic platform for analysis system, keeping pace with the concurrent development of the modules, such as wheel-contact force, constraints and user-defined force modules. Using the information from the analysis, the evaluation of the dynamic behavior of the train and its stability analysis will be available.

위상 배열 초음파 기법을 이용한 국내 표준형 윈전 저압 터빈의 디스크 검사에 대하여 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 디스크 mockup을 제작하고 결함을 가공하였으며 결함에 대한 검출과 길이 측정 방법에 따른 결과를 고찰하였다. 깊이 측정에서 릴은 결함은 AATT(absolute arrival time technique)방법 혹은 RATT (relative arrival time technique)방법을 사용하여 깊이를 측정할 수 있었으나, 조기에 발견하여야 할 깊이가 깊지 않은 결함은 이와 같은 방법으로 깊이를 측정할 수 없었다. 이 경우 결함 신호가 나타나는 각도 범위를 이용하여 결함 깊이를 측정하였으며 유용한 도구임을 확인하였다.

Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench (purple cone flower) is an important medicinal plant; it can enhance immunity, relieve pain, and reduce inflammation, and also has hormonal, antiviral, and antioxidant effects. Adventitious root biomass of Echinacea purpurea was produced in commercial-scale bioreactors for use as a dietary supplement in the food industry and in traditional medicine. Biosafety and toxicological evaluations of tissue-cultured Echinacea purpurea adventitious roots (TCEPARs) were performed. Reverse mutation and chromosomal aberration tests showed no significant mutagenicity. Furthermore, repeated four-week oral dose tests performed in Sprague-Dawley rats did not show any notable changes in the general behavior of the rats, in the gross appearance of their internal organs, or in their mortality rate. There were no differences between the control group and the treatment group in parameters such as absolute body weight, hematology, blood chemistry, and absolute and relative organ weights. These findings indicate that TCEPARs are safe and nontoxic when consumed at an average dietary level and can be used as raw material for traditional medicine and the food industry.

Purpose: We aim to evaluate the accuracy and effectiveness of an automatically converted radiation therapy plan between Radixact machines by comparing the original plan with the transferred plan. Methods: The study involved a total of 20 patients for each randomly selected treatment site who received radiation treatment with Radixact. We set up the cheese phantom (Gammex RMI, Middleton, WI, USA) with an Exradin A1SL ion chamber (Standard Imaging, Madison, WI, USA) and GAFCHROMIC EBT3 film (International Specialty Products, Wayne, NJ, USA) inserted. We used three methods to evaluate an automatically converted radiation therapy plan using the features of the Plan transfer. First, we evaluated and compared Planning target volume (PTV) coverage (homogeneity index, HI; conformity index, CI) and organs at risk (OAR) dose statistics. Second, we compared the absolute dose using an ion chamber. Lastly, we analyzed gamma passing rates using film. Results: Our results showed that the difference in PTV coverage was 1.72% in HI and 0.17% in CI, and majority of the difference in OAR was within 1% across all sites. The difference (%) in absolute dose values was averaging 0.74%. In addition, the gamma passing rate was 99.64% for 3%/3 mm and 97.08% for 2%/2 mm. Conclusions: The Plan transfer function can be reliably used in appropriate situations.

The article discusses the dead reckoning of the traveled path based on the analysis of the video data stream coming from the optoelectronic surveillance devices; the use of relief data makes it possible to partially compensate for the shortcomings of the first method. Using the overlap of the photo-video data stream, the terrain is restored. Comparison with a digital terrain model allows the location of the aircraft to be determined; the use of digital images of the terrain also allows you to determine the coordinates of the location and orientation by comparing the current view information. This method provides high accuracy in determining the absolute coordinates even in the absence of relief. It also allows you to find the absolute position of the camera, even when its approximate coordinates are not known at all.

The planning accuracy of charged particle therapy (CPT) is subject to the accuracy of stopping power (SP) estimation. In this study, we propose a method of deriving a pseudo-triple-energy CT (pTECT) that can be achievable in the existing dual-energy CT (DECT) systems for better SP estimation. In order to remove the direct effect of errors in CT values, relative CT values according to three scanning voltage settings were used. CT values of each tissue substitute phantom were measured to show the non-linearity of the values thereby suggesting the absolute difference and ratio of CT values as parameters for SP estimation. Electron density, effective atomic number (EAN), mean excitation energy and SP were calculated based on these parameters. Two of conventional methods were implemented and compared to the proposed pTECT method in terms of residuals, absolute error and root-mean-square-error (RMSE). The proposed method outperformed the comparison methods in every evaluation metrics. Especially, the estimation error for EAN and mean excitation using pTECT were converging to zero. In this proof-of-concept study, we showed the feasibility of using three CT values for accurate SP estimation. Our suggested pTECT method indicates potential clinical utility of spectral CT imaging for CPT planning.

대규모의 상품을 다루는 전자상거래 시스템에서 개인화된 추천은 필수적인 기능이 되고 있다. 대표적 추천 알고리즘인 협업필터링은 내용기반 추천에 비하여 뛰어난 추천성능을 제공해 주고 있으나, 희박성, 신규 아이템 문제(Cold-start), 확장성 등의 근본적인 한계를 갖고 있다. 본 연구에서는 추가적으로 협업필터링이 목표 대상자에 따라 비일관된 예측 능력의 차이를 보이는 추천 성능의 편차 문제를 제기하고자 한다. 추천성능의 편차는 기존의 Mean Absolute Error(MAE)에 의해서는 측정되기 어려우며 또한 정확도, 재현율 지표와도 독립적으로 평가되고 있다. 협업알고리즘의 정확한 성능평가를 위해서 본 연구에서는 MAE, MAE 편차, 정확도, 재현율을 포괄적으로 평가할 수 있는 확장 성능평가모델을 제안하고 이를 클러스터링 기반 협업필터링에 적용하여 성능을 비교 분석한다.
