  • 본 논문에서는 AWGN 채널환경에서 직렬연접 길쌈부호(serial concatenated convolutional codes; SCCC)의 세 가지 형태에 대한 성능을 비교 및 분석한다. 모의실험 결과 낮은 신호 대 잡음비(signal-to-noise ratio; SNR) 영역에서는 첫 번째 형태의 성능이 가장 우수하였다. 그러나 높은 SNR 영역에서는 세 번째 형태의 성능이 가장 우수함을 아 수 있었다. 그리고 첫 번째 형태에서는 SNR과 반복복호 횟수를 증가시키더라도 성능이 더 이상 향상되지 않는 오류마루(error floor)가 발생하였다. 그러나 두 번째와 세 번째 형태는 높은 SNR에서 반복복호를 5회 이상 수행하더라도 성능이 계속 향상되며 오류마루가 나타나지 않았다. 그리고 SNR이 증가할수록 세 가지 직렬연접 길쌈부호의 BER 성능은 각각의 상위경계(upper bound) 성능에 근접해짐을 알 수 있었다. 또한 자유거리(free distance)가 가장 큰 세 번째 직렬연접 길쌈부호가 세 가지 구조 중에서 가장 우수한 상위경계 성능을 나타내었다.

  • 아가리쿠스버섯에서 분리한 단백다당류를 분무건조한 분말의 저장안정성을 알아보기 위하여 저장 중 흡습특성을 조사하였다. 평형수분함량은 수분활성도가 높아짐에 따라 빠르게 증가하는 양상이었으며, 높은 온도에서 낮은 함량을 나타내었다. 단분자층 수분함량은 BET식보다 GAB식이 높은 유의성을 나타내었다. 수분활성도가 증가함에 따라 필요로 하는 흡습에너지가 낮아져 흡습엔탈피는 감소하여 흡습이 쉽게 이루어짐을 알수 있었다. 등온흡습곡선의 적합도는 Kuhn과 Oswin 모델이 $R^2$ 0.99 이상으로 높은 적합도를 나타내었고, Oswin 모델이 가장 편차가 작은 것으로 나타났다. 흡습 중 평형상대습도 예측 모델을 수립하기 위해 온도와 수분활성도의 경우 일차함수, 시간의 경우 로그함수가 높은 적합도를 보였으며, 평형상대습도 예측모델식은 수분활성도만을 변수로하는 모델식, 수분활성도와 시간을 변수로 하는 모델식과 수분활성도, 시간, 온도를 변수로 하는 모델식을 나타내어 가장 높은 $R^2$가 0.965로 나타났다.

  • Purpose : This study compared the cost-effectiveness ratio of physical therapy in health centers and home physical therapy, two physical therapy methods for home-bound stroke patients, and clarified the economic validity regarding the effect of home physical therapy. Methods : To measure and compare the cost and effectiveness of the two physical therapy methods for stroke patients, subjects were recruited based on in-hospital and home physical therapy. Among the entire data collected, 82 and 90 participants were selected for in-hospital and home physical therapy, respectively. To measure costs, regarding both in-hospital and home physical therapy, direct cost and indirect cost for patients, family, medical institutes, and the government were measured. In addition, activities of daily living were measured in both methods to measure their effectiveness. Through collected data, the cost-effectiveness and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were analyzed. Results : Based on the analysis of cost-effectiveness, home physical therapy showed lower cost-effectiveness than in-hospital physical therapy. Furthermore, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio also showed a difference, which implied home physical therapy could have high effectiveness compared to cost. Conclusion : Based on these results, home physical therapy could be considered as an alternativeto other methods of physical therapy, for home-bound stroke patients. In addition, the result of thisstudy contribute by providing evidence that home physical therapy offers economic benefits and canbe more effective in treating home-bound patients when policy decisions are made to establish a home physical therapy system.

  • This paper reports the development of a generalized inverse analysis formulation for the parameter estimation of four-parameter Burger model. The analysis is carried out by formulating the problem as a mathematical programming formulation in terms of identification of the design vector, the objective function and the design constraints. Thereafter, the formulated constrained nonlinear multivariable problem is solved with the aid of fmincon: an in-built constrained optimization solver module available in MatLab. In order to gain experience, a synthetic case-study is considered wherein key issues such as the determination and setting up of variable bounds, global optimality of the solution and minimum number of data-points required for prediction of parameters is addressed. The results reveal that the developed technique is quite efficient in predicting the model parameters. The best result is obtained when the design variables are subjected to a lower bound without any upper bound. Global optimality of the solution is achieved using the developed technique. A minimum of 4-5 randomly selected data-points are required to achieve the optimal solution. The above technique has also been adopted for real-time settlement of four oil refineries with encouraging results.

  • The goals of this study are to apply exciplex method to the visualization of the fuel spray of a diesel engine and to investigate the liquid phase of fuel spray that injected at the various tips of a fuel injector. This study provides the informations for the improvement of the diesel injection system and the structures of diesel spry with the boiling of fuel droplets in combustion chamber by the exciplex method. Hexame was used as fuel for approximation to injection condition of the engine. And naphthalene and TMDP were added to the fuel for the visualization by exciplex method. Experimental injectors were 4hole, 8hole, and 1hole impinging injectors. In the injection condition of actual engine the exciplex was sufficient to catch the liquid phase signal. The spray penetration of impinging injector was small than that of actual 4 and 8hole injector but atomization was better. The upper bound of impinging injector was determined by the geometry of a cylinder head and the lower bound was determined by spray angle. On impinging injector the atomization was better at the edge of disk than at center of disk and also the mixing with environmental gas was better.

  • Mining activity in the Gubong gold mine started in 1908 and lasted up to recent days. Heavy metals derived from the activity may be porentially toxic to human life and envirinment of this area. Because metal toxicity depends on chemical associations into five operationally defined groups: exchangeable, carbonate, reducible, oxidizable, and residual fractions, and the Most of heavy metals have significant little significance (alomost<1%). And Cu is mainly associated with the oxidizable from. Total concentration of heavy metals, pH, and mineralogy affect the chemical forms of the metals. Heavy metal concentrations. Significant amounts of metal elements (5∼65.1% in Pb, 6.2∼39.7% in Zn, 8.7∼54.7% in Cd, and 3.6∼24.7% in Cu) were present in carbonate form from mine wastes, contaminated soils and sediments. High pH value and cerussite (Pb bearing carbonate mineral) in mine wastes, contaminated soils and sediments. High pH value and cerussite (Pb beraring varbonate mineral) in mine waste support this result. Areas with high corbonate bound from would have higher potentoal conamination, however, because elements of carbonate bound forms are easily mobilized under lower pH conditions in the surface envionments due to acid to rain soil acidification.

  • The optimum design of base isolation system considering model parameter uncertainty is usually performed by using the unconditional response of structure obtained by the total probability theory, as the performance index. Though, the probabilistic approach is powerful, it cannot be applied when the maximum possible ranges of variations are known and can be only modelled as uncertain but bounded type. In such cases, the interval analysis method is a viable alternative. The present study focuses on the bounded optimization of base isolation system to mitigate the seismic vibration effect of structures characterized by bounded type system parameters. With this intention in view, the conditional stochastic response quantities are obtained in random vibration framework using the state space formulation. Subsequently, with the aid of matrix perturbation theory using first order Taylor series expansion of dynamic response function and its interval extension, the vibration control problem is transformed to appropriate deterministic optimization problems correspond to a lower bound and upper bound optimum solutions. A lead rubber bearing isolating a multi-storeyed building frame is considered for numerical study to elucidate the proposed bounded optimization procedure and the optimum performance of the isolation system.

  • Employing non-associated flow rule and Power-Law failure criterion, the failure mechanisms of tunnel roof in homogeneous and layered soils are studied in present analysis. From the viewpoint of energy, limit analysis upper bound theorem and variation principle are introduced to study the influence of dilatancy on the collapse mechanism of rectangular tunnel considering effects of supporting force and seepage force. Through calculation, the collapsing curve expressions of rectangular tunnel which are excavated in homogeneous soil and layered soils respectively are derived. The accuracy of this work is verified by comparing with the existing research results. The collapsing surface shapes with different dilatancy coefficients are draw out and the influence of dilatancy coefficient on possible collapsing range is analyzed. The results show that, in homogeneous soil, the potential collapsing range decreases with the decrease of the dilatancy coefficient. In layered soils, the total height and the width on the layered position of possible collapsing block increase and the width of the falling block on tunnel roof decrease when only the upper soil's dilatancy coefficient decrease. When only the lower soil's dilatancy coefficient decrease or both layers' dilatancy coefficients decrease, the range of the potential collapsing block reduces.

  • An experimental investigation to determine the transfer length of a seven-wire prestressing strand in different concretes is presented in this paper. A testing technique based on the analysis of bond behaviour by means of measuring the force supported by the prestressing strand on a series of specimens with different embedment lengths has been used. An analytical bond model to calculate the transfer length from an inelastic bond stress distribution along the transfer length has been obtained. A relationship between the plastic bond stress for transfer length and the concrete compressive strength at the time of prestress transfer has been found. An equation to predict the average and both the lower bound and the upper bound values of transfer length is proposed. The experimental results have not only been compared with the theoretical prediction from proposed equations in the literature, but also with experimental results obtained by several researchers.

  • 패킷 쌍을 이용한 병목 대역 측정 방법중 Potential Bandwidth Filter를 이용하여 두 개의 패킷앞에 다른 패킷이 끼어 들어 생기는 시간축 압축현상 잡음을 제거하는 기법의 수렴 속도를 개선하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 Potential Bandwidth Filter에서 고정된 값으로 증가시켜 수렴시키는 방법 대신에 지수적으로 증가시키는 방법을 사용하여 수렴속도를 개선하였다. 또한 효과적인 필터의 성능유지와 변화되는 대역폭의 측정을 위하여 상한값(MAX)과 하한값(MIN)을 이용하여 Potential Bandwidth(PB)를 조절하였다. 실험 결과 본 논문에서 제안한 알고리즘이 기존의 알고리즘보다 45-89% 빠르게 수렴하는 것을 보였다.
