In this paper an efficient morphologica algorithm for reducing gaussian and impulse noise in gray-scale image is presented. Based on the edge information the input image is partitioned into a flat region and an edge region, then different algorithms are selectively applied to each region. in case of impulse noise, MGR (morphologica grayscale reconstruction) algorithm with directional SE (structuring element) is applied to the flat region. For theedge region opening-closing (closing-opening) is used instead of dialation (erosion), so that the remaining noise around large objects can be removed. In case of gaussian noise, 5*5 OCCO(opening closing closing opening) and 3*3 DMF(directional morphological filter ) are used for the flat region and the edgeregion, respectively. In order to remove discontinuity at the edge boundary, the algorithm uses 3*3 OCCO around the edge region to reconstruct the final image. Experimetnal results have shown that the proposed algorithm achieves a high performance in terms of noise removal, detail preservation, and NMSE.

Flow traveling over a cavity opening forms a vortex due to unstable shear layer and induces an aerodynamic pressure excitation from the diffusion of the vortex convecting out of the trailing edge of the opening. The interaction between the excitation force and the cavity response sustains resonance in the resonator(cavity) and locked-in vortex shedding at the leading edge of the opening. The aerodynamic excitation force can be described from the diffusion of the vortex over the trailing edge and the level of its diffusivity is related to the strength of vorticity seeded at the leading edge. In this study, the control scheme of the internal pressure oscillation was proposed from regulating the vorticity at the leading edge by use of an oscillating spoiler. It was found that the relative motion between the spoiler and the air mass at the cavity opening influenced vorticity strength and the control was achieved by direct feedback of the cavity pressure fluctuation to the actuator.

A new algorithm for gradual scene change detection in MPEG based frame sequences is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm is based on the fact that most of gradual curves can be characterized by variance distributions of edge information in the frame sequences. Average edge frame sequences are obtained by performing "sober" edge detection. Features are extracted by comparing variances with those of local blocks in the average edge frames. Those features are further processed by the opening operation to obtain smoothing variance curves. The lowest variance in the local frame sequences is chosen as a gradual detection point. Experimental results show that the proposed method provides 85% precision and 86% recall rate fur gradual scene changes.

The membrane of the LNG carriers consists of thin strips of INVAR(Fe-36%Ni) steel plates, and the junction between INVAR strips is fabricated by welding. Thousands of the raised edge joints, regularly spaced, are located around all the side of the tank corner near the transverse bulkhead, and TIG welding is manually made on the top of the raised edges. Since the thickness of all the laminated edge plies is extremely thin and the weld position is under a bad accessibility, highly skilled workers are required to perform welding relatively for a long welding time. An alternative scheme for the corner membrane fabrication is proposed in the study to improve the installation workability and thus productivity. The scheme replaces the welded edges with the preformed corrugation ones. A panel strip with regularly-spaced corrugations is installed at the corner instead of the individual flat strip of which edge is vertically raised to be welded with the adjacent strip. In the study, a series of the evaluation on the corrugated edge members was performed to assess the applicability to the real LNG carrier fabrication. Opening displacement at the raised edge was experimentally examined. Elastic stiffness regressed from the displacement was nearly same in both edge types. Edge displacement and local stresses were calculated under hydrostatic pressure and temperature change due to liquefied cargo. Fatigue test was performed on both corrugated and welded edge specimens consisting of two or five plies of invar strips. Fatigue strength of the corrugated specimens was not less than that of the welded specimens.

3차원 도시 모델은 여러 가지 인공구조물, 자연 지물 요소로 구성되며, 이 중에서 대부분을 차지하고 있는 것은 건물이다. 따라서 건물을 얼마나 정확하고 신속하게 추출하여 기존의 데이터베이스를 갱신할 수 있느냐는 중요한 문제라 할 수 있다. 이러한 문제의 해결 방안으로 DTM으로부터 추출한 건물 정보로 DTM을 재구성한다면, 이를 하나의 3차원 도시 모델로 이용할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 고해상도 DTM과 항공사진의 edge 정보에 수리형태학(mathematical morphology) 및 영상분할 기법 등을 적용하여 건물의 윤곽선 및 높이 정보를 추출하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 본 연구의 결과, 수리형태학의 opening 연산을 통해 건물의 추출이 가능하였으며, 항공사진에서 추출한 edge 정보를 이용하여 건물 추출의 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있었다.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid for the treatment of internal derangements of the temporomandibular joint(TMJ). Sixteen patients with internal derangements of TMJ in 1 male and 15 females aged 68 to 18 years comprised the study material. The patients' complaint was limited mouth opening and pain during function. Patients were divided into 3 groups(articular disc displacement with reduction, articular disc displacement without reduction, osteoarthritis group). The preauricular area was disinfected anesthetized locally with 2% lidocaine hydrochloride. Arthrocentesis was performed. Hyaluronic acid(1.5 ㏄) was then injected into the superior compartment of the TMJ. Active range of motion exercises were instituted at approximately 24 hours postoperatively. Antibiotics and NSAID, three times daily by mouth, was prescribed for 3 days. Clinical evaluation of the patients was done before the procedure, immediately after the procedure, final follow-up visit postoperatively. Pain during function was assessed using visual analog scales(VAS). Maximal mouth opening was recorded as a distance between upper incisal edge and lower incisal edge. Intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid caused significant reduction of pain during function, significant increase of maximal opening range. These findings suggest that intra-articular injection of hyaluronic acid is useful for decreasing patient reports of pain while increasing functional mobility of the mandible in internal derangements of the TMJ.

Electronic and magnetic properties of bilayer zigzag graphene nanoribbon (bZGNR) are studied using pseudopotential density functional method. The edge atoms in the top and bottom layers of bZGNR make a weak hybridization, which leads to electronic structures different from monolayer ZGNR. For asymmetric bZGNR, where the top and bottom layers have different widths, one edge is pinched by the interlayer bonding and the other sustains antiferromagnetic ordering. A small amount of charge transfer occurs from narrower to wider layer, producing spin-polarized electron and hole pockets. External electric field produces asymmetric energy-gap opening for each spin component, inducing half-metallicity in bZGNR.

The noise from the sunroof can be divided into the low frequency buffeting noise and the high frequency turbulence noise generated when a car runs at the high driving speed. The wind deflector suppresses the buffeting noise generation by accelerating the vortex shedding from the front edge of sunroof opening, and guides the flow direction so that air can pass smoothly over the sunroof opening. To reduce the buffeting noise and the high frequency noise, it is very important to locate a deflector in a proper position depending on the driving speed and the sunroof opening width. The deflector's sectional shape also plays an important role in efficiently reducing the buffeting and high frequency noise. In this paper, we determined the optimum deflector's sectional shape and examined the flow characteristics behind a sunroof deflector through CFD analysis with changing the deflector height, the driving speed and the sunroof opening width. It is found that the deflector needs to be located in the higher location to control the buffeting noise by shedding the higher frequency vortices to accelerating vortices from the sunroof front edge. The deflector may act as a new noise source at the high driving speed, then it is desirable to put the deflector at the proper height to reduce the flow fluctuations and the noise generation. We also made a road test to verify CFD analysis results in this study.
