The people who complain of pain due to voice causes such as vocal cord nodules is increasing year by year. If the voice is changed, it is possible to give to colleagues discomfort or inconvenience during conversation. In this paper, we propose a way to reduce discomfort by improving the husky voice during the conversation. A VBF (voice boosting filter) is firstly designed to improve the husky voices. This filter may further emphasize the formant frequency components than the frequency components around the formant frequency, because the value is relatively greater than the other frequency. And a fixed-point type DSP chipset, TMS320F2812 is applied to the system, the operating frequency is 150MHz. The system was implemented as a compact for use as a portable, its size is $2.5cm{\times}10cm$. Through the test using three husky voices with some type of statement, it was satisfactory in processing speed and sound quality improvement.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of laser Irradiation on Human plasma $\beta-endorphin$ levels, by treating with low level helium-neon (He-Ne) and Infrared(lR) laser. The Laser was fixed frequency of 2400Hz by continuous scanning and irradiating time was 8 minutes each point. Blood samples were taken at before, after, after 15min's treatment and Plasma $\beta-endorphin$ was measured by radioimmunoassay. The samples for this study were 6 normal subjects(3male, 3female). The data were analyzed by paired t-test, one-way ANOVA and simple regression. The results of this study were as follows : 1. The human plasma $\beta-endorphin$ levels were noted as significant increase in after-treatment $(22.84{\pm}10.63pg/ml)$ as compared with before-treatment $(16.96{\pm}9.23pg/ml)$ and significant increase in after 15min's $(27.27{\pm}8.81pg/ml)$ as compared with after-treatment (p<0.05). 2. There were no significant changes in plasma g-endorphin levels between male and female. 3. The human plasma $\beta-endorphin$ levels were high associated in between session reliability (p<0.05).

Considering the well known environmental issues of cement manufacturing (direct and indirect levels of $CO_2$ emissions), clinker replacement by supplementary cementing materials (SCM) can be a very promising first step in reducing considerably the associated emissions. However, such a reduction is possible up to a particular level of SCM utilization, influenced by the rate of its pozzolanic reaction. In this study a (4-step) structured methodology is proposed in order to be able to further adjust the concrete mix design of a particular SCM, in achieving additional reduction of the associated levels of $CO_2$ emissions and being at the same time accepted from a derived concrete strength and service life point of view. On this note, the aim of this study is twofold. To evaluate the environmental contribution of each concrete component and to provide the best possible mix design configuration, balanced between the principles of sustainability (low environmental cost) and durability (accepted concrete strength and service life ). It is shown that such a balance can be achieved, by utilising SCM by-products in the concrete mix, reducing in this way the fixed environmental emissions without compromising the long-term safety and durability of the structure.

Aircraft noise model such as FAA Integrated Noise Model(INM) has recently been used for forecasting the impact of noise in a residential area near an airport and quantifying the effect of various options for noise mitigation. The noise modeling should be reliable and precise in order to ensure the quality of the results provided. In this study, the validation of the noise levels simulated by the INM against measurement data recorded continuously at multiple monitoring sites was discussed. As a result of validation, the quality of the input data used as a fixed point profiles for the INM was enhanced. The noise contour maps were designed as a way to evaluate the aircraft noise of the vicinity of the airfield. The results of this study indicate that the validation of aircraft noise model by the measurement data would be required for the accurate assessment of the aircraft noise levels.

In this paper, a nonlinear controller based on sliding mode control is applied to a two-wheeled Welding Mobile Robot (WMR) to track a smooth curved welding path at a constant velocity of the welding point. The mobile robot is considered in terms of dynamics model in Cartesian coordinates under the presence of external disturbance, and its parameters are exactly known. It is assumed that the disturbance satisfies the matching condition with a known boundary. To obtain the controller, the tracking errors are defined, and the two sliding surfaces are chosen to guarantee that the errors converge to zero asymptotically. Two cases are to be considered: fixed torch and controllable torch. In addition, a simple way of measuring the errors is introduced using two potentiometers. The simulation and experiment on a two-wheeled welding mobile robot are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed controller.

Three Eum and Three Yang[三陰三陽] is a way of studying the changing of nature from a Eum(陰) and Yang(陽) point of view, Juhakhae(周學海) divides this into two dimensions. The first is the concept of dividing the exterior part of the body excluding the organ into 6 divisions as Eumyang(陰陽) of front and rear characteristic. The second is the concept of dividing the systematic bio-activity of the central organ into another 6 dimensions. The former concept is illustrated in the body as a certain meridian controlling a certain field of the body, while the latter is presented as a certain organ performing an activity of Gi(氣). Three Eum and Three Yang[三陰三陽] is not based on fixed substances. but it is a thought process model of observing the structural-functional changes of the body in disease state. Therefore, by understanding Three Eum and Three Yang[三陰三陽] of field and activity of Gi(氣) respectively and comprehensively putting these into practice, we will be able to approach the essence of the disease state in a more precise manner.

Purpose : For practical application of the MR image for stereotactic radiosurgery, the target point achieved by acquisition of MR image in a relatively homogeneous phantom has to agree with the actual isocenter of irradiation in real radiosurgery and the amount of distortion of the MR image should be known. Materials and Methods : A dosimetric film with a random target point was inserted into a radish vertically and horizontally on axis Z and they were fixed with a headring. After image acquisition by stereotactic radiosurgery planning system, we achieved stereotactic coordinate of the target point and examined irradiation using the coordinate acquired as isocenter. After the irradiation, the film in the radish was developed and processed and the degree of coincidence between the target point marked on the film and the center of the radiation distribution. In order to measure the degree of distortion of the MR image in a different way, an acryl phantom was made and punctures were made at intervals of 1 cm and a drop of oil was dropped into it. Then, it was inserted into the radish vertically and horizontally on axis Z to acquire the MR image. Each coordinate was achieved and the estimation of distortion of MR image was made both in vertical and horizontal directions Results : The film from the radio was developed and for the one inserted vertically on axis Z, there was a good coincidence in the discrepancy between the target point marked on the film and the center of the radiation distribution. For the one inserted horizontally, the discrepancy between them was under 0.5 mm. As a result of estimating distortion of MR image using acryl, the discrepancy was under 0.45 mm in the case of the phantom inserted vertically on axis Z, and that of the one inserted horizontally was 1.4 mm. Conclusion : We were able to confirm good coincidence in homogeneous phantom in actual treatment position of radiosurgery using the MR image and the discrepancy measured in the analysis of distortion of the MR image did not exceed the permissible level. Therefore, it was evident the system of the hospital is suitable for radiosurgery using MR image.

Fashion designer Jean Paul Gaultier incorporated his own boundless and unique artistic Into his design of dance costumes, presenting an unobstructed imaginary world that was filled with freedom, which is no less than one would expect from the one-time enfant t${\'{e}}$rrible of Paris fashion. This creativity of Gaultier was made possible only through the fantastic partnership he formed with the French modern dancer, R${\'{e}}$gine Chopinot. Gaultier and Chopinot shared a deep-rooted sympathy that enabled their own artistic worlds to fully mingle and cross over, resulting in a doubled synergy of their talent and their fame. This study analyzed 11 dancing costumes created through the collaborated efforts of those two enfants t${\'{e}}$rribles, one from the fashion industry and the other from the world of dance. The following are the results of my analysis. Gaultier's dance costumes served as a artistic venue for experimenting with a number of creative inspirations lurking in his mind, which were sometimes expressed in pr${\^{e}}$t-${\`{a}}$-porter collections. Instead of the decorative and expressive features of conventional dance costumes, his was the revival of the dancer's persona as a human being, ablaze with individuality and uniqueness. He pointed out that there is no good in the distorted turturro's fixed point of view, and the great joy of an opposing way of thinking that overturned the established. Leotard material was used as a second skin by transforming it into various styles and delivering his message. In addition, obscene and sexual expressions were delivered in a direct narrative. His eccentric ideas provided entertainment while showing his oppositional way of thinking. In the dance, the effect of the costumes was doubled by the use of cumbersome and exaggerated accessories, which is generally forbidden in modern dance.

이차원 표면균열을 가진 시험편을 사용하여 직류전위차법에서 전류 입출력점 사이의 거리가 전위차에 미치는 영향을 실험을 통하여 규명하였다. 전위차 값은 일정 전위차 계측점 사이의 거리에 있어 전류 입출력점 사이의 거리가 증가함에 따라 반비례적으로 감소하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 전위차 계측의 감도를 향상하기 위해서는 전류 입출력점을 전위차 계측점에 최대한 가까운 위치에 설치하도록 하는 것이 유리하다. 계측한 전위차 값은 노치의 길이에 비례하고 있기 때문에 직류전위차법은 표면균열 측정에 유효한 수단이라 할 수 있었다. 또한 전류 입출력점을 최대한 전위차 계측점 가까이에 위치시킬 때 균열길이가 작은 균열도 직류전위차법으로 검사 할 수 있음을 알았다.

선박의 최적 항로 계획은 주어진 해양 환경에서 운항 시간 혹은 연료 소모량을 최소로 하는 항로 계획이다. 대양을 운항하는 선박의 최적 항로에 관한 기존 연구와 다르게, 본 연구에서는 연안에서 좌초 위험을 회피하는 선박의 항로 계획을 위한 최적화 방법을 제안하였다. Dijkstra 알고리즘을 사용하여 항로의 변경 지점을 찾고, 최적화 설계 변수를 엔진 회전수로 설정하여 연료 소모량이 최소가 되도록 최적화를 수행하였다. 엔진 회전수를 설정하는 방법은 출발지에서 도착지까지 고정 회전수로 설정하는 방법과 구간을 나누어 구간별 고정 회전수를 설정하는 방법을 사용하였다. 항로 탐색을 위해 고려한 해양 환경 요소는 바람, 파고, 조류이며 좌초 위험을 계산하기 위해 수심 정보를 사용하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 방법을 목포와 제주를 오가는 선박을 대상으로 적용하여 최적의 항로를 결정하였으며, 최적 항로를 기존에 항해했던 항로와 비교하여 연료 소모량이 절감된 것을 확인하였다.
