In this paper, we suggest an Iris recognition system with an excellent recognition rate and confidence as an alternative biometric recognition technique that solves the limit in an existing individual discrimination. For its implementation, we extracted coefficients feature values with the wavelet transformation mainly used in the signal processing, and we used neural network to see a recognition rate. However, Scale Conjugate Gradient of nonlinear optimum method mainly used in neural network is not suitable to solve the optimum problem for its slow velocity of convergence. So we intended to enhance the recognition rate by using Levenberg-Marquardt Back-propagation which supplements existing Scale Conjugate Gradient for an implementation of the iris recognition system. We improved convergence velocity, efficiency, and stability by changing properly the size according to both convergence rate of solution and variation rate of variable vector with the implementation of an applied algorithm.

일반적으로 포화지반의 동적거동을 정확히 예편하기 위해서는 다공성(multi-phase) 재료모델과 그 모델을 이용하는 수치해석 프로그램의 개발이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 높은 동하중을 받는 다공질 재료의 이론적인 거동해석 연구결과와 함께 기존 MPDAP(multi-phase dynamic analysis program)에 JWL(Jones-Withins-Lee) 모델을 삽입시켜 개발한 MPDAP에 대해 다루었다. JWL모델은 기존 모델과는 달리 폭약의 종류 및 특성 등을 고려할 수 있는 모델이다. 또한 본 논문에서는 개발된 프로그램의 적합성을 조사하기 위하여 몇몇 예제에 대한 검증해석을 수행하였다. 검증결과, 단일매체 (single-phase medium)에서의 탄성구형파의 전파특성 해석의 경우 해석결과와 이론해는 거의 일치하는 결과를 나타내었고, 일차원 선형 압밀해석의 경우과잉 간극수압은 Terzaghi의 이론해와 해석된 결과가 비교적 일치하는 경향성을 보여 주었다. 또한 포화지반에서의 평면 압축파 해석의 경우도 해석결과와 이미 검증된 프로그램 또는 완전해의 해석결과는 거의 유사하게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Acoustic characteristics of a sound absorbing material can be identified, if the characteristic impedance and propagation constants are known, which have generally been determined experimentally. One easy method determining these two essential parameters is to measure the one dimensional wave characteristics in the impedance tube. In th udy, the effects of backing conditions on the impedance tube measurement have been examined using several pairs of generally used end conditions. The results showed that the measured values are similar for most pairs of end conditions: however, it was observed that the measured characteristic impedance for different thickness did not agree well for some pairs. In this work, the multi termination method, using three or more known backing con ns, was suggested to reduce such random errors, which are mostly caused by the test procedure. Employing three terminations as a set, comprised of a rigid end, an end with porous material, and an end with a backing cavity, it was demonstrated that improved measured results could be obtained for an open cell PU foam varying widely with three different thicknesses.

다중 계단으로 근사한 사주지형 위를 지나는 선형 파랑전파에 대한 고유함수 전개법에서 크기가 큰 행렬을 풀 때 계산시간을 상당히 단축하기 위하여 분할행렬법을 사용하여 반사율을 계산하였다. 본 모형에 10개의 억류파를 사용하여 현재까지 가장 정밀한 수치해를 구하였고 구한 반사율의 거동은 몇 경우에서 기존 결과와 다름을 보였다. 크기가 큰 행렬을 풀 때 본 분할행렬법의 계산시간과 기억용량은 여전히 커서 효율적인 방법에 대한 개발이 요구된다.

A light collecting probe named Multi-color Integrated Cassegrain Receiving Optics (MICRO) is applied to spark-ignited spherical spray flames to obtain the flame propagation speed in freely falling droplet suspension produced by an ultrasonic atomizer. Two MICRO probes are used to monitor time-series signals of OH chemiluminescence from two different locations in the flame. By detecting the arrival time difference of the propagating flame front, the flame propagation speed is calculated with a two-point delay-time method. In addition, time-series images of OH chemiluminescence are simultaneously obtained by a high-speed digital CCD camera to ensure the validity of the two-point delay-time method by the MICRO system. Furthermore, the relationship between the spray properties measured by phase Doppler anemometer (PDA) and the flame propagation speed are discussed with three different experimental conditions by changing the fuel injection rate. It was confirmed that the two-point delay-time method with two MICRO probes is useful and convenient to obtain the flame propagation speed and that the flame propagation speed depends on the spray properties.

In the last decade, the best estimate plus uncertainty methodologies in nuclear technology and nuclear power plant design have become a trending topic in the nuclear field. Since BEPU was allowed for licensing purposes by the most important regulator bodies, different uncertainty assessment methods have become popular, overall non-parametric methods. While non-parametric tolerance regions can be well stated and used in uncertainty quantification for licensing purposes, the propagation of the uncertainty through different codes (multi-scale, multiphysics) in cascade needs a better depiction of uncertainty than the one provided by the tolerance regions or a probability distribution. An alternative method based on the parametric or distributional probability boxes is used to perform uncertainty quantification and propagation regarding statistic uncertainty from one code to another. This method is sample-size independent and allows well-defined tolerance intervals for uncertainty quantification, manageable for uncertainty propagation. This work characterizes the distributional p-boxes behavior on uncertainty quantification and uncertainty propagation through nested random sampling.

This paper presents CMOS full adder design method based on carry-propagation-free addition trees and a circuit technique, so called multiple-valued current-nude(MVCM) circuits. The carry-propagation-free addition method uses a redundant digit sets called redundant positive-digit number representations. The carry-propagation-free addition is by three steps, and the adder can be designed directly and efficiently from the algorithm using WVCM circuit, Also Multiplier can be designed by these adder. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method through simulation(SPICE).

다중 위성 관측을 이용하여 지구 근처에서의 태양물질 방출현상(CME: Coronal Mass Ejection)의 전파 속도와 방향에 대하여 조사하였다. 이를 위해 1994년 11월까지 지구에 영향을 미친 CME 중에서 세 개 이상의 위성에서 관측되고 각 위성들이 충분한 거리를 두고 떨어져 있는 1997년 1월 6-11일과 1997년 11월 4-7일의 두 CME 자료를 선택하였다. 위성들의 위치를 공통 좌표 계로 전환하여 위성간의 거리와 CME에 의한 물리량의 변화 시간을 조사하여 CME의 전파 방향과 속도를 계산하였다. 선택된 자료에 대한 조사 결과 지구 자기권 내부에서 CME 전파 속도가 급격히 줄어들었으며 또한 자기권 외부에서의 CME 전파 방향이 GSE 좌표계상의 -x 방향과 일치함을 알 수 있었다.

Wave propagation in a three-dimensional (3D) fully nonlinear numerical wave tank (NWT) is studied based on velocity potential theory. The governing Laplace equation with fully nonlinear boundary conditions on the moving free surface is solved using the indirect desingularized boundary integral equation method (DBIEM). The fourth-order predictor-corrector Adams-Bashforth-Moulton scheme (ABM4) and mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian (MEL) method are used for the time-stepping integration of the free surface boundary conditions. A smoothing algorithm, B-spline, is applied to eliminate the possible saw-tooth instabilities. The artificial wave speed employed in MTF (multi-transmitting formula) approach is investigated for fully nonlinear wave problem. The numerical results from incorporating the damping zone (DZ), MTF and MTF coupled DZ (MTF+DZ) methods as radiation condition are compared with analytical solution. An effective MTF+DZ method is finally adopted to simulate the 3D linear wave, second-order wave and irregular wave propagation. It is shown that the MTF+DZ method can be used for simulating fully nonlinear wave propagation very efficiently.
