Angular distortion in welding process is decided by the various variables. We can make the prediction of welding distortion in similar reality by the analysis of data through many specimen tests. However it is difficult that prediction of welding distortion applies to the ship building. We can establish that angular distortion varies directly as the specimen size. And, it makes clear distortion's difference between constraint and unconstraint, according to the change of a plate thickness.

Generally, the distortion of the negative feedback amplifier is reduced by a factor equal to the return difference (1+${\beta}_1A_1$), but the proposed feedforward amplifier is reduced by a factor equal to the square of the return difference (1+${\beta}_1A_1$). In this paper, a feedforward amplifier with error correction is designed and implemented. So as to evaluate the characteristics of the harmonic distortion that the inverting feedforward amplifier is compared with that of the reference amplifier without feedforward error correction. It is confirmed that the proposed method should be able to reduce much greater than compared with a conventional negative feedback amplifier. Therefore it should be noted that the proposed feedforward amplifier network is also acceptable for wide-band amplifiers and the network which is demanded to improve the harmonic distortion.

The demand of image compression is increasing now for the integration of medical images into the hospital information system. Even though the quantitative distortion can be measured from the difference between original and reconstructed images, it doesn't include the nonlinear characteristics of human visual system. In this study, we have evaluated the nonlinear characteristics of human visual system and applied them to the compression of medical images. The distortion measures which reflect the characteristics of human visual system has been considered. This image compression procedure consists of coding scheme using JND (Just Noticeable Difference) curve, polynomial approximation and BTC (Block Truncation Coding). Results show that this method can be applied to CT images, scanned film images and other kinds of medical images with the compression ratio of 5-10:1 without any noticeable distortion.

Generally, a voltage difference or voltage distortion exists between the reference voltage and the practical voltage applied to a motor in a pulse width modulated(PWM) voltage source inverter(VSI). This voltage distortion varies with the operating conditions such as the temperature, DC link voltage, and phase current level. Also the voltage distortion affects the machine current distortion, torque pulsations, and control performance. In this paper, the voltage distortion in a PWM VSI is analyzed and a new on-line estimation method based on the model reference adaptive system(MRAS) is proposed to compensate the time varying voltage distortion, while considering the parameter variations for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The simulation and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed voltage difference observer and the compensation method.

In this paper, we propose a (2,2)-reversible secret image sharing scheme using histogram shifting and difference expansion. Two techniques are widely used in information hiding. Advantages of them are the low distortion between cover and stego images, and high embedding capacity. In secret image sharing procedure, unlike Shamir's secret sharing, a histogram generate that the difference value between the original image and copy image is computed by difference expansion. And then, the secret image is embedded into original and copy images by using histogram shifting. Lastly, two generated shadow images are distributed to each participant by the dealer. In the experimental results, we measure a capacity of a secret image and a distortion ratio between original image and shadow image. The results show that the embedding capacity and image distortion ratio of the proposed scheme are superior to the previous schemes.

This paper presents a simple method to estimate center of distortion and correct radial distortion from fish-eye lens. If the center of image is not locate that of lens in a straight line, the disadvantage of FOV model is low accurate because of correcting distortion without estimated centre of distortion. We propose a method accurately estimating Distortion center using FOV model and 2D pattern from wide angle lens. Our method determines the center of distortion in least error between straight lines and curves with FOV model. The results of experimental measurements on synthetic and real data are presented.

The object of this study was to measure of the distortion of various dental waxes under condition simulating clinical usage. Eleven commercial product (table) including the inlay and baseplate waxes were tested, and compared in the study. Test specimens were prepared $5{\times}5{\times}65mm$. split brass mold. Placed this rod wax specimens and the brass wax distortion test mold into the water bath and tested the distortion values for waxes at $35^{\circ}C,\;40^{\cric}C,\;45^{\circ}C\;and\;50^{\circ}C$. Measured the distortion as the difference between the final (Df) and original (Do) distance between the ends of the specimen. Recorded Df, Do and Df-Do (Distortion) to the nearest 0.5mm. A minimum of five specimens were tested for each material. The following conclusions may be drawn from this study. 1) It can be seen that, a significant wax distortion was obtained with the temperature of forming the pattern, and the length of time and the temperature at which it was stored. 2) It was found that, when the storage time was increased, the wax distortion was correspondingly increased. At the sametime, the higher the storage time was employed, the distortion was obviously much greater. 3) It can be observed that the higher the temperature at which the wax was manipulated, the less was the resulting distortion upon storage.

Both timbral features and spatial features are important in the assessment of multichannel audio coding systems. The prediction model, extending the ITU-R Rec. BS. 1387-1 to multichannel audio coding systems, with the use of spatial features such as ITDDist (Interaural Time Difference Distortion), ILDDist (Interaural Level Difference Distortion), and IACCDist (InterAural Cross-correlation Coefficient Distortion) was proposed by Choi et al. In that model, ITDDistswere only computed for low frequency bands (below 1500Hz), and ILDDists were computed only for high frequency bands (over 2500Hz) according to classical duplex theory. However, in the high frequency range, information in temporal envelope is also important in spatial perception, especially in sound localization. A new model to compute the ITD distortions of temporal envelopes in high frequency components is introduced in this paper to investigate the role of such ITD on spatial perception quantitatively. The computed ITD distortions of temporal envelopes in high frequency components were highly correlated with perceived sound quality of multichannel audio sounds.

During stereolithography processes, one of the main sources of dimensional error of prototype is the distortion effect owing to the shrinkage of resin. In this study, the effects of dimension of specimen, such as length, width, and thickness, on the curl distortion is examined. During the SL processes, the variation of curl distortion ewer is measured according to the number of layers, Through this study, it is verified that there is a big difference of the distortion error in both direction and magnitude between before and after the supports are removed. It Is also observed that end profile of the test part and the upper side around the border are also distorted due to the shrinkage of the resin.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect that three resin indexing materials had on the distortion of split cast in the procedures of solder indexing and block fabrication. The specimen had two cylinders and connecting bar Two cylinders were a reference cylinder and a test cylinder that were machined precisely and placed on metal base. The total of specimens were 30 and they were divided into 3 groups according to the resin indexing materials : Acrylic $solder^{(R)}$, G-C Pattern $resin^{(R)},\;Z-100^{(R)}$. The relative coordinates (X, Y, Z) of centroids of both cylinders were measured by using 3-D cool dinates measuring machine. The value of indexing distortion was obtained after application of indexing material, and the value of the block distortion was obtained after fabrication of soldering block, and the value of total distortion was a value sum of indexing distortion and block distortion. Intercentroidal linear distortion ${(\sqrt{X^{'2}+Y^{'2}+Z^{'2}}-{\sqrt{X^2+Y^2+Z^2)}$ and global distortion $(\sqrt{{(X^'-X)}^2+{(Y^'-Y)}^2+{(Z^'-Z)}^2}$ were calculated from data of coordinates of centroids at each measuring stages. The results of this study were as belows ; 1. The intercentroidal distance between the split casts was reduced by indexing distortion and increased by block distortion. 2. The indexing global distortion between the split casts was smaller than block global distortion. 3. The intercentroidal linear distortion and the global distortion were no significant difference between indexing materials.
