This study examines the wavelet transform for output-only system identification of ambient excited engineering structures with emphasis on its utilization for modal parameter estimation of high-order and closely-spaced modes. Sophisticated time-frequency resolution analysis has been carried out by employing the modified complex Morlet wavelet function for better adaption and flexibility of the time-frequency resolution to extract two closely-spaced frequencies. Furthermore, bandwidth refinement techniques such as a bandwidth resolution adaptation, a broadband filtering technique and a narrowband filtering one have been proposed in the study for the special treatments of high-order and closely-spaced modal parameter estimation. Ambient responses of a 5-story steel frame building have been used in the numerical example, using the proposed bandwidth refinement techniques, for estimating the modal parameters of the high-order and closely-spaced modes. The first five natural frequencies and damping ratios of the structure have been estimated; furthermore, the comparison among the various proposed bandwidth refinement techniques has also been examined.

The grain size of aluminum alloy was refined to the submicrometer level by using equal-channel angular pressing(ECAP). The effect of grain size refinement was evaluated by the tensile test, micro-hardness test, microstructure observations, ultrasonic test and acoustic emission test. The strength and the Vickers hardness were increased significantly according to grain size refinement after equal-channel angular pressed. The ultrasonic velocity was faster after equal-channel angular pressed, and the high frequency range appeared. The results of the ultrasonic velocity and the frequency range are expected to be basic data that can prove the grain size refinement

This paper describes the development process of steering system for reduce idle vibration through the data level of frequency and sensitivity. High stiffness and light weight vehicle is a major target in the refinement of passenger cars to meet customers' contradictable requirements between NVH performance and fuel economy. The target frequency of the steering system is set by benchmarking of a competitive vehicle and the vibration mode map is used to separate steering column modes from resonance of body structure and engine idle rpm. This paper descirbes the analysis approach process for high stiffness of steering system and the design guideline is suggested about steering column and support system by using mother car at initial design stage. We used a patent map in order to analyze accurately a technical trend and suggested the design process using dynamic damper of steering system considering sensitivity. And we established techniques of analysis on steering system and evaluated the level of accuracy of analysis through correlating the test and analysis results. It makes possible to design the good NVH performance vehicle at initial design stage and save vehicles to be used in tests. These improvements can lead to shortening the time needed to develop better vehicles.

For high frequency microstrip line modelling, a fast inductance extraction technique using an adaptive PEEC(partial element equivalent circuit) grid is proposed. The grid refinement technique is based on the current distribution depend on the excitation frequencies and the geometry of the microstrip lines. The adaptive ids are refined mainly in the area where heavy currents reside. This technique is applied to the inductance extraction of the microstrip lines. The results show fast convergence, and this adaptive technique is efficient to reduce computing time and the number of grids.

This paper presents the performance enhancement of automatic bilingual lexicon extraction by using refinement of pivot-context vectors under the standard pivot-based approach, which is very effective method for less-resource language pairs. In this paper, we gradually improve the performance through two different refinements of pivot-context vectors: One is to filter out unhelpful elements of the pivot-context vectors and to revise the values of the vectors through bidirectional translation probabilities estimated by Anymalign and another one is to remove non-noun elements from the original vectors. In this paper, experiments have been conducted on two different language pairs that are bi-directional Korean-Spanish and Korean-French, respectively. The experimental results have demonstrated that our method for high-frequency words shows at least 48.5% at the top 1 and up to 88.5% at the top 20 and for the low-frequency words at least 43.3% at the top 1 and up to 48.9% at the top 20.

The blur effect, which is generated by various external factors such as out-of-focus and object movement, degrades high-frequency components in the original sharp image. Based on this observation, we propose a novel method for blur detection using textural features. Specifically, the proposed method simultaneously adopts learning-based and watershed-based textural features, which effectively detect the blur on various situations. Moreover, we employ the region-based refinement to improve the processing time while also increasing detection accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method provides the competitive performance compared to previous approaches in literature.

Modern vehicles require a high degree of refinement including good driveability. Vehicle driveability, which becomes a key decisive factor f3r marketability, is affected by many parameters such as engine control and the dynamic characteristics in drive lines. Therefore engine and drive train characteristics should be considered to achieve a well balanced vehicle response simultaneously. This paper describes experimental procedures which have been developed to measure engine torque and investigate shuffle characteristics. To analyze the vehicle dynamic behavior, fractional torques and inertia mass moment of engine, and drive train were measured. Shuffle characteristics during tip-in condition were investigated in an experimental vehicle at 2nd and 3rd gear stages. It was found that the shuffle characteristics were caused by sudden changes of engine torque and have a different vibration frequency with gear stage variation. Inertia mass moment of engine including flywheel rotation showed a key factor for the shuffle characteristics.

This study aimed to reveal the perceptions and trends of digital fashion technology through an informational approach. A big data analysis was conducted after collecting the text shown in a web environment from April 2019 to April 2021. Key words were derived through text mining analysis and network analysis, and the structure of perception of digital fashion technology was identified. Using textoms, we collected 8144 texts after data refinement, conducted a frequency of emergence and central component analysis, and visualized the results with word cloud and N-gram. The frequency of appearance also generated matrices with the top 70 words, and a structural equivalent analysis was performed. The results were presented with network visualizations and dendrograms. Fashion, digital, and technology were the most frequently mentioned topics, and the frequencies of platform, digital transformation, and start-ups were also high. Through clustering, four clusters of marketing were formed using fashion, digital technology, startups, and augmented reality/virtual reality technology. Future research on startups and smart factories with technologies based on stable platforms is needed. The results of this study contribute to increasing the fashion industry's knowledge on digital fashion technology and can be used as a foundational study for the development of research on related topics.
