목적: 20대와 40대 초반 근시안의 성별 및 근시도에 따른 최대조절력의 평균 크기를 비교 분석하여 세대간 조절력의 변화를 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 20대 초반과 40대 초반의 근시안 각 100명을 대상으로 하여 푸쉬업법(pushup method)을 이용하여 최대조절력을 측정하였다. Hofstetter 공식을 이용하여 얻어진 최대조절력 기대값을 기준으로 기대최소치 미만군(under), 정상군(normal), 기대최대치 초과군(excess)으로 분류하여 비교하였다. 결과: 20대 초반의 평균 조절력은 9.77~11.64 D$(10.77{\pm}2.49D)$, 40대 초반의 평균 조절력은 4.67~6.21 D$(5.34{\pm}1.28D)$로 나타났고, 20대 초반에서 조절력의 기대최소치 미만군은 20%, 정상군 75%, 기대최대치 초과군 5%의 분포를 나타내었고, 40대 초반에서는 조절력의 기대최소치 미만군 18%, 정상군 82%를 나타내었고, 기대최대치 초과군은 나타나지 않았다. 결론: 두 연령층 모두에서 연령이 증가함에 따라 조절력의 감소를 나타내었는데, 근시도와 성별에 따른 유의성은 나타나지 않았다. 또한 각 연령대별로 최대조절력의 기대평균치와 최대조절력 평균의 차를 비교해 보았을 때 20대 초반에서 기대평균치보다 더 작은 것으로 나타나 상대적으로 근업 기회가 많은 20대의 조절력 저하가 훨씬 빨리 나타날 것으로 예상된다.

This paper considers the maximum likelihood (ML) detection of 16-ary differential amplitude and phase shift keying (DAPSK) in Rayleigh fading channels. Based on the conditional likelihood function, two new receiver structures, namely ML symbol-by-symbol receiver and ML sequence receiver, are proposed. For the symbol-by-symbol detection, the conventional DAPSK detector is shown to be sub-optimum due to the complete separation in the phase and amplitude detection, but it results in very close performance to the ML detector provided that its circular amplitude decision thresholds are optimized. For the sequence detection, a simple Viterbi algorithm with only two states are adopted to provide an SNR gain around 1 dB on the amplitude bit detection compared with the conventional detector.

Field line resonances (FLRs) observed in the magnetosphere often have the amplitude of a few nT, which indicates that dB/B roughly satisfies ~0.01. It is well known that the FLRs are excited by compressional waves via mode conversion, but there has been no apparent criterion on the maximum amplitude in the regime of linear approximations. Such limited range of amplitude should be understood by including nonlinear saturation of FLRs, which has not been examined until now. In this study, using a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation code, we examine the evolution of nonlinear field line resonances (FLRs) in the cold plasmas. The MHD code used in this study allows a full nonlinear description and enables us to study the maximum amplitude of FLRs. When the disturbance is sufficiently small, it is shown that linear properties of MHD wave coupling are well reproduced. In order to examine a nonlinear excitation of FLRs, it is shown how these FLRs become saturated as the initial magnitude of disturbances is assumed to increase. Our results suggest that the maximum amplitude of FLRs become saturated at the level of the same order of dB/B as in observations. In addition, we discuss the role of both linear terms and nonlinear terms in the MHD wave equations.

The purpose of this study is to find some acoustic parameters on frequency domain to distinguish the Korean nasals, $/m,\;n,\;{\eta}/$ from each other. The new parameters are devised on the basis of LTAS (Long Term Average Spectrum). The maximum peak amplitude and the relevant formant frequency are measured in low and high frequency range, respectively. The frequency of spectral valley and its energy level are also obtained in the specific frequency range of the spectrum. Spectral slope, total energy value in specific frequency range, statistical distribution of spectral energy like centroid, skewness, and kurtosis are suggested as new parameters as well. The parameters that show statistically significant differences across nasals are summerized as follows. 1) in syllable initial positions: the total energy value from 1,500 to 2,200 Hz(zeroENG); 2) in syllable final positions: the peak amplitude of the first formant(peak1_a), the formant frequency with maximum peak amplitude from 4,000 to 8,000 Hz(peak2_f), the maximum peak amplitude of the formant frequency from 4,000 to 8,000 Hz(peak2_a), and the total energy value from 1,500 to 2,200 Hz(zeroENG).

In addition, we extended this study for the plasma sheet boundary layer (PSBL) region. We can discuss the maximum disturbances of the Alfven via mode conversion becomes differently saturated through each region.

In this paper, we propose a maximum-likelihood estimation(MLE) method to obtain the location and the amplitude of the pulses in MPE( multi-pulse excitation)-LPC speech synthesis using multi-pulses as excitation source. This MLE method computes the value maximizing the likelihood function with respect to unknown parameters(amplitude and position of the pulses) for the observed data sequence. Thus in the case of overlapped pulses, the method is equivalent to Ozawa's crosscorrelation method, resulting in equal amount of computation and sound quality with the cross-correlation method. We show by computer simulation: the multi-pulses obtained by MLE method are(1) pseudo-periodic in pitch in the case of voicde sound, (2) the pulses are random for unvoiced sound, (3) the pulses change from random to periodic in the interval where the original speech signal changes from unvoiced to voiced. Short time power specta of original speech and syunthesized speech obtained by using multi-pulses as excitation source are quite similar to each other at the formants.

There have been many studies on chatter vibration in machining but there seems to be no regulations to decide the commencing point of chatter objectively. The development of an objective method which can estimate and detect chatter commencement is very much in need for automatic manufacturing systems, dynamic performance tests for machine tools, so on. In this study, therefore, the estimation and the in-process detection of chatter have been experi- mentally investigated for the turning process. As a result, the commencing point of chatter can be decided from the behavior of the maximum amplitude of the dynamic component of cutting force, where the maximum amplitude is suddenly increasing with the chatter commencement. Then the commencing point of chatter can be estimated practically by this method before the occurrence of excessive vibration. Also, it is possible to detect the occurence of chatter vibration through the in-process measurement, by monitoring the maximum amplitude of the dynamic component of cutting force.

The prediction of VIV amplitude is essential for the design and fatigue life estimation of steel tubes in tubular transmission towers. Limited to costly and time-consuming traditional experimental and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods, a machine learning (ML)-based method is proposed to efficiently predict the VIV amplitude of steel tubes in transmission towers. Firstly, by introducing the first-order mode shape to the two-dimensional CFD method, a simplified response analysis method (SRAM) is presented to calculate the VIV amplitude of steel tubes in transmission towers, which enables to build a dataset for training ML models. Then, by taking mass ratio M^*, damping ratio ξ, and reduced velocity U^* as the input variables, a Kriging-based prediction method (KPM) is further proposed to estimate the VIV amplitude of steel tubes in transmission towers by combining the SRAM with the Kriging-based ML model. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed methods are demonstrated by using three full-scale steel tubes with C-shaped, Cross-shaped, and Flange-plate joints, respectively. The results show that the SRAM can reasonably calculate the VIV amplitude, in which the relative errors of VIV maximum amplitude in three examples are less than 6%. Meanwhile, the KPM can well predict the VIV amplitude of steel tubes in transmission towers within the studied range of M^*, ξ and U^*. Particularly, the KPM presents an excellent capability in estimating the VIV maximum amplitude by using the reduced damping parameter S_G.

본 논문에서는 ${\alpha}$-stable 확률분포를 갖는 잡음에 열화된 이미지의 화질을 개선하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 진폭제한 평균필터(amplitude-limited sample average filter)는 heavy-tailed 가우시안 잡음환경 하에서 maximum likelihood estimator (MLE)임을 증명한다. 그리고, 이 알고리즘에 해당하는 error norm은 Huber의 minimax norm과 일치하고, 위에서 언급한 잡음 환경 하에서 efficacy를 최대화한다는 점에서 최적의 필터임을 보인다. 이 개념을 미리어드(myriad) 필터와 결합하여 진폭제한 미리어드 필터(amplitude-limited myriad filter)를 제안하고 실험을 통하여 이의 성능을 확인한다.

압력을 증가시켜가며 맥파를 측정하여 맥파의 진동수와 푸리에 진폭이 가해준 압력에 따라 어떠한 양상을 보이는지 조사하였다. 맥파의 기본 진동수는 압력에 따른 변화를 거의 보이지 않았으며, 푸리에 진폭은 개인의 체질에 따라 몇 가지 유형으로 분류될 수 있음을 보였다. 이 유형들을 다시 푸리에 진폭이 최고점에 이를 때의 압력의 크기와 최고점에서의 상태를 유지할 수 있는 압력의 범위에 따라 맥상의 여러 형태와 연관지을 수 있음을 보였다.
