The problem of the computation of derivatives arises in various applications of rational Bezier curves. These applications sometimes require the computation of derivative on numerous points. Therefore, many researches have dealt with the representation for the computation of derivatives with the small computation error. This paper compares the performances of the representations for the derivative of rational Bezier curves in the performances. The performance is measured as computation requirements at the pre-processing stage and at the computation stage based on the theoretical derivation of computational bound as well as the experimental verification. Based on this measurement, this paper discusses which representation is preferable in different situations.

We introduce polynomial PH-MPH transitive mappings which transform planar PH curves to MPH curves in ${\mathbb{R}}^{2,1}$, and prove that parameterizations of Enneper surfaces of the 1st and the 2nd kind and conjugates of Enneper surfaces of the 2nd kind are PH-MPH transitive. We show how to solve $C^1$ Hermite interpolation problems in ${\mathbb{R}}^{2,1}$, for an admissible $C^1$ Hermite data-set, by using the parametrization of Enneper surfaces of the 1st kind. We also show that we can obtain interpolants for at least some inadmissible data-sets by using MPH biarcs on Enneper surfaces of the 1st kind.

Some features of tidal energy horizontal flux in the ocean are considered. using the concept of “energy flux ellipses” which is a hodograph of momentary fluxes over a tidal semi-period. A number of characteristics of this ellipse are considered as well as some peculiarities of energy flux field in different types of tidal waves and their combinations (plane, Kelvin, Sverdrup, Poincare, amphidromic system). For forced tidal waves in equatorial channels some results are obtained explaining the dependence of energy flux direction on the channel dimensions.

We calculate the coordinates of an axisymmetric nozzle with a central body. This nozzle ensures a transonic flow with a plane sound surface, which is orthogonal to the symmetry axis and has a wall kink at the sonic point, The Chaplygin transformation in the subsonic part of the flow leads the Dirichlet problem for a system of nonlinear equations. The definition domain of the solution in the velocity-hodograph plane is taken as a rectangle. This enables one to obtain the nozzle with a monotonic distribution of velocity along its subsonic part. In the nonlinear differential equation, the linear Chaplygin operator for plane flows is separated, which allows the iterative calculation of the solution. The supersonic part of the nozzle is calculated under the assumption that the flow at the nozzle exit is uniform and parallel to the symmetry axis; i.e., the supersonic jet outflows to the submerged space with the same pressure. The calculation is performed by the characteristic method. The exact solution of Tricomi equation for near-sonic flows with the straight sonic line is used to 'move away' the sound plane. The velocity distribution alone the supersonic part of the nozzle is also monotonic, which ensures the absence of the boundary-layer separation and, therefore, the adequacy of the ideal-gas model. calculations show that the flow in the supersonic part of the nozzle is continuous (compression shocks are absent)

There are many available algorithms based on the different approaches to solve the intersection problems between two curves. Among them, the implicitization method is frequently used since it computes precise solutions fast and is robust in lower degrees. However, once the degrees of curves to be intersected are higher than cubics, its computation time increases rapidly and the numerical stability gets worse. From this observation, it is natural to transform the original problem into a set of easier ones. Therefore, curves are subdivided appropriately depending on their geometric behavior and approximated by a set of rational quadratic Bezier cures. Then, the implicitization method is applied to compute the intersections between approximated ones. Since the solutions of the implicitization method are intersections between approximated curves, a numerical process such as Newton-Raphson iteration should be employed to find true intersection points. As the seeds of numerical process are close to a true solution through the mix-and-match process, the experimental results illustrates that the proposed algorithm is superior to other algorithms.

Unified State Model(이후 USM)은 Altman(1972)에 의해 처음 제안된 이후 Chodas(1981), Raol & Sinha(1985), Vittaldev et al.(2012) 등을 거치며 연구 발전되어 왔다. 이 모델은 공간상 6개 성분의 위치, 속도 벡터를 이용해 위성의 운동을 기술하는 기존 계산 방법과 달리 4개의 Quaternion 변수를 도입하여 위성의 위치를, 3개의 Hodograph 변수를 도입하여 위성의 속도를 각각 기술한다. USM의 장점은 직교좌표계로 표현된 위성의 위치, 속도 변수에 비해 USM 변수의 변화량이 상대적으로 작기 때문에 수치 계산 시 계산의 안정도가 높다. 또한 원궤도(${\omega}$ : undefined)와 적도면 궤도(i = 0, ${\Omega}$ : undefined) 계산 시에 나타나는 특이성(singularity) 문제가 발생하지 않는다. 본 연구에서는 USM 계산방법과 기존 방법에 의한 위성궤도 계산결과의 차이를 비교 분석하였다. 지구궤도 위성의 정밀계산을 위해 이체항 이외에 지구타원체 섭동항과 대기 항력에 의한 섭동항을 추가 적용하였다. 비구형 지구 중력 포텐셜에 의한 섭동은 J4항까지 고려하였으며, 대기 항력은 간단한 exponential 모델을 적용하였다. 또한 수치계산 시 적분 간격과 정밀도 차수를 조절하여 각 모델의 계산 안정성을 테스트하였다. 본 연구의 궤도계산 결과 USM 모델을 이용한 계산방법은 그 정밀성과 계산효율성이 매우 우수한 것으로 검증되었다.

The characteristics of the sea breeze were investigated using the wind and temperature data collected from 300-m tower at Boseong from May 2014 to April 2018. Sea breeze day was detected using following criteria: 1) the presence of a clear change in wind direction near sunrise (between 1 hour after sunrise and 5 hours before sunset) and sunset (from 1500 LST to midnight), 2) presence of thermal forcing of sea breeze and 3) no heavy precipitation (rain < $10mm\;d^{-1}$). Sea breeze days occurred on 569 days for 4 years. The monthly distribution of sea breeze day occurrence shows maxima in May and September and minimum in December. The average onset and cessation times of the sea breeze are 0942 LST and 1802 LST, respectively. Although the 10-m wind shows clockwise rotation with time in the afternoon, the observed hodograph does not show an ideal elliptical shape and has different characteristics depending on the upper synoptic wind direction. Vertical structure of sea breeze shows local maximum of wind speed and local minimum of virtual potential temperature at 40 m in the afternoon for most synoptic conditions except for southeasterly synoptic wind ($60^{\circ}{\sim}150^{\circ}$) which is in the same direction as onshore flow. The local minimum of temperature is due to cold advection by sea breeze. During daytime, the intensity of inversion layer above 40 m is strongest in westerly synoptic wind ($240^{\circ}{\sim}330^{\circ}$) which is in the opposite direction to onshore flow.
