본 논문에서는 수화 인식을 위한 얼굴 및 손 추적시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템은 검출 및 추적 단계로 구분된다. 검출 단계에서는 신호의 주체인 얼굴과 손에 위치한 피부 특징을 이용하였다. CbCr 공간에서의 타원 모델을 구성하여 피부 색상을 검출하고 피부 영역을 분할한다. 그리고 크기와 얼굴 특징을 이용하여 얼굴과 손 영역을 정의한다. 추적 단계에서는 동작 추정을 위하여 첫 번째 손 영역으로 예측된 다음의 손위치를 연산함으로써 두 번째 손의 영역을 유도해낸다. 그러나 갑작스런 움직임의 속도 변화가 있을 경우 연속된 프레임에서 추적된 위치는 부정확하였다. 이러한 점을 해결하고자 손 영역에 대하여 반복적인 재연산을 수행하여 적응적으로 영역을 찾음으로써 오차를 보정하도록 하였다. 실험 결과 제안된 방법은 기존의 방법보다 4%의 처리 시간이 증가된 반면, 예측 오차는 96.87%까지 감소시킬 수 있었다.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare the workload level at each lower limbs posture and suggest the ergonomic workstation guideline for working period by evaluating the imbalanced lower limbs postures from the physiological and psychophysical points of view. Background: Many workers like welders are working in various imbalanced lower limbs postures either due to the narrow working conditions or other environmental conditions. Method: Ten male subjects participated in this experiment. Subjects were asked to maintain 3 different lower limbs postures(standing, squatting and bending) with 3 different working conditions(balanced floor with no scaffold, imbalanced floor with 10cm height of scaffold, and imbalanced floor with 20cm height of scaffold). EMG data for the 4 muscle groups(Retus Femoris, Vastus Lateralis, Tibialis Anterior, Gastrocnemius) from each lower limbs posture were collected for 20 seconds every 2 minutes during the 8 minutes sustaining task. Subjects were also asked to report their discomfort ratings of body parts such as waist, upper legs, lower legs, and ankle. Results: The ANOVA results showed that the EMG root mean square(RMS) values and the discomfort ratings(CR-10 Rating Scale) were significantly affected by lower limbs postures and working time(p<0.05). The correlation was analyzed between the EMG data and the discomfort ratings. Also, prediction models for the discomfort rating for each posture were developed using physical condition, working time, and scaffold height. Conclusion: We strongly recommend that one should not work more than 6 minutes in a standing or squatting postures and should not work more than 4 minutes in a bending posture. Application: The results of this study could be used to design and assess working environments and methods. Furthermore, these results could be used to suggest ergonomic guidelines for the lower limbs postures such as squatting and bending in the working fields in order to prevent fatigue and pain in the lower limbs body.

Cosmic ray (CR)s are energetic particles that are found in space and filter through our atmosphere. They are classified with galactic cosmic ray (GCR)s and solar cosmic ray (SCR)s from their origins. The process of a CR particle colliding with particles in our atmosphere and disintegrating into smaller pions, muons, neutrons, and the like, is called a cosmic ray shower. These particles can be measured on the Earth's surface by neutron monitor (NM)s. Regarding with the space weather, there are common types of short term variation called a Forbush decrease (FD) and a Ground Level Enhancement (GLE). In this talk, we will briefly introduce our recent studies on CRs observed by NM: (1) simultaneity of FD depending on solar wind interaction, (2) an association between GLE and solar proton events, and (3) diurnal variation of the GCR depending on geomagnetic cutoff rigidity. NM will provide a crucial information for the Korea Space Weather Prediction Center (KSWPC).

Contact tips are required to have a higher resistance to wear and thus to have an extended life time under the advanced GMAW welding process. Several requirements have been specified and employed by domestic industries for selecting their tips for such a purpose. However no attempt has been made to justify their requirements based on the experimental data of wear resistance or life time of contact tips. In this study, five different contact tips with three different compositions were employed for actual GMA welding up to 4 hours and were evaluated their wear resistance by measuring in every one hour the area of enlarged hole at the exit side. Experimental results clearly showed that the Cr-containing tips strengthened by precipitation hardening have much better resistance to wear than those made by work hardening. It was further noticed that Cr is an excellent alloying element for improving the wear resistance of contact tips only when it is in an properly aged condition. Initial hardness may play some role in the early stage of wear but not in the later stage of welding because the microstructure of tip changes significantly by the prolonged exposure to welding arc heat. Based on these results, critical review has been made on the current requirements employed by domestic industries. Of importance is that a new guideline has been confirmed to be more reasonable.

본 논문에서는 c-스파 단면을 갖는 복합재 로터 블레이드에 대해 co-rotational(CR) 이론 기반 비선형 쉘 요소를 사용하는 In-house code를 통해 고유진동수를 구하고, 이를 이용하여 블레이드의 진동특성을 예측하는 심층신경망 모델을 개발하였다. 심층신경망 모델은 무작위 두께 분포를 갖는 데이터와 스팬 방향으로 두께 감소 경향성을 보이는 데이터를 통해 심층신경망 모델의 정확성을 평가하였다.

Alluvial soil is challenging to work with due to its high compressibility. Thus, consolidation settlement of this type of soil should be accurately estimated. Accurate estimation of the consolidation settlement of alluvial soil requires accurate prediction of compressibility parameters. Geotechnical engineers usually use empirical correlations to estimate these compressibility parameters. However, no attempts have been made to develop correlations to estimate compressibility parameters of alluvial soil. Thus, this paper aims to develop new models to predict the compression and recompression indices (Cc and Cr) of alluvial soils. As part of the study, geotechnical laboratory tests have been conducted on large number of undisturbed samples of local alluvial soil. The obtained results from these tests in addition to available results from the literature from different parts in the world have been compiled to form the database of this study. This database is then employed to examine the accuracy of the available empirical correlations of the compressibility parameters and to develop the new models to estimate the compressibility parameters using the nonlinear regression analysis. The accuracy of the new models has been accessed using mean absolute error, root mean square error, mean, percentage of predictions with error range of ±20%, percentage of predictions with error range of ±30%, and coefficient of determination. It was found that the new models outperform the available correlations. Thus, these models can be used by geotechnical engineers with more confidence to predict Cc and Cr.

Although heat treatment is a process of great technological importance in order to obtain desired mechanical properties such as hardness, the process was required a tedious and expensive experimentation to specify the process parameters. Consequently, the availability of reliable and efficient numerical simulation program would enable easy specification of process parameters to achieve desired microstructure and mechanical properties without defects like crack and distortion. In present work, the developed numerical simulation program could predict distributions of microstructure and thermal stress in steels under different cooling conditions. The computer program is based on the finite difference method for temperature analysis and microstructural changes and the finite element method for thermal stress analysis. Multi-phase decomposition model was used for description of diffusional austenite decompositions in low alloy steels during cooling after austenitization. The model predicts the progress of ferrite, pearlite, and bainite transformations simultaneously during quenching and estimates the amount of martensite also by using Koistinen and Marburger equation. To verify the developed program, the calculated results are compared with experimental ones of casting product. Based on these results, newly designed heat treatment process is proposed and it was proved to be effective for industry.

다시점 비디오는 카메라간의 다른 위치와 불완전한 카메라 보정(calibration)으로 인접한 시점의 영상 내에 존재하는 동일물체 간에 색상 차이가 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 색상 불일치(color mismatch)는 시점 간 움직임 예측(inter-view prediction) 수행 시, 오정합을 발생시켜 다시점 비디오 부호화(Multi-view Video Coding : MVC) 성능을 저하시키는 원인이 된다. 본 논문에서는 이웃하는 영상 간에 존재하는 휘도 및 색차 성분 불일치를 보상하여 다시점 비디오 부호화의 압축률을 향상시키는 전처리 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법에서는 모든 시점의 영상을 히스토그램 매칭 기법에 의해 정해진 참조 시점 영상의 색상을 기준으로 보정된다. 또한 히스토그램 매칭 수행 전에 YCbCr 색상공간 변경 시에 색차 성분의 대표 값 추출(chrominance subsampling)에 사용되는 Cosited filter를 영상의 각 색상성분에 적용하여 성능을 더욱 높일 수 있다. 히스토그램 매칭은 YCbCr 색상공간에서 RGB 색상공간으로 변환하여 각 색상성분에 적용한다. 이 과정에서 영상에 존재하는 에지의 방향성과 화소 값의 존재 범위를 고려한 효과적인 색상 변환 기법이 사용된다. 실험을 통해 제안하는 전처리 기법이 다른 기법들에 비해 향상된 부호화 효율을 가지는 것을 확인하였다.
