An experimental approach is presented for the measurement of wear that is common in the threading of cold-forged steel. In this work, the first objective is to measure wear on various types of roll taps manufactured to tapping holes in microalloyed HR45 steel. Different geometries and levels of wear are tested and measured. Taking their geometry as the critical factor, the types of forming tap with the least wear and the best performance are identified. Abrasive wear was observed on the forming lobes. A higher number of lobes in the chamber zone and around the nominal diameter meant a more uniform load distribution and a more gradual forming process. A second objective is to identify the most accurate data-mining technique for the prediction of form-tap wear. Different data-mining techniques are tested to select the most accurate one: from standard versions such as Multilayer Perceptrons, Support Vector Machines and Regression Trees to the most recent ones such as Rotation Forest ensembles and Iterated Bagging ensembles. The best results were obtained with ensembles of Rotation Forest with unpruned Regression Trees as base regressors that reduced the RMS error of the best-tested baseline technique for the lower length output by 33%, and Additive Regression with unpruned M5P as base regressors that reduced the RMS errors of the linear fit for the upper and total lengths by 25% and 39%, respectively. However, the lower length was statistically more difficult to model in Additive Regression than in Rotation Forest. Rotation Forest with unpruned Regression Trees as base regressors therefore appeared to be the most suitable regressor for the modeling of this industrial problem.

본 논문에서는 IEEE 802.11a의 OFDM 통신시스템에 대한 송수신 주파수편차의 교정기법을 연구하고 편차주파 수들의 교정오차에 의한 잡음을 분석한다. 반송주파수편차에 의한 심볼당 회전위상을 짧은 훈련신호(short preamble)의 자기상관에서 추정한다. 잡음의 영향을 줄이기 위하여 짧은 훈련신호(short preamble)를 과도표본화 (over-sampling)한다. 파일롯(pilot) 신호를 도입하여 추정된 반송주파수편차의 오차와 표본화 주파수편차에 의한 OFDM 심볼당 회전위상을 추정한다. 이러한 회전위상의 추정과 교정에 CORDIC(Coordinated Rotational Digital Computer) 프로세서 또는 각도와 복소수의 환산표를 사용하고 이것들의 구현기법과 장단점을 비교한다. 복소수와 위상은 CORDIC 프로세서와 환산표에서 한정된 비트(bit) 개수로 계산되므로 각도양자화 오차가 있게 된다. 비트개수에 따른 각도양자화 오차를 OFDM 신호의 SNR로 나타내고 IEEE 802.11a의 편차주파수 교정에서 요구되는 최소한의 비트 개수를 제시한다. 끝으로, 모의실험을 통하여 짧은 훈련신호로 반송주파수편차를 추정하고 CORDIC 프로세서와 환산표에서 사용된 비트 개수에 따른 양자화 잡음을 검증한다.

본 논문에서는 모니터 위에 설치된 카메라를 통해 입력된 사용자의 2차원 얼굴 영상을 이용하여, 사용자가 모니터 상에 쳐다보고 있는 응시 위치를 파악하는 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 사용자의 눈동자 움직임은 고려하지 않고 얼굴의 회전 및 이동만을 고려하였다. 제안하는 방법은 얼굴의 회전에 의한 응시위치와 얼굴의 좌우상하 이동량을 각각 계산하여 이 둘을 결합함으로써 모니터상의 응시위치를 추정하는 것이다. 얼굴 특징점의 기하학적 형태변화를 입력으로 하는 신경망(다층 퍼셉트론)을 이용하여 얼굴의 회전에 의한 응시위치를 구하였으며 영상처리 알고리즘을 이용하여 입력영상으로부터 실시간으로 얼굴의 이동량을 추정하였다. 실험결과 19인치 모니터를 사용하고 사용자가 모니터와의 거리를 50~70cm 정도 유지하며 얼굴의 이동 및 회전을 통하여 모니터를 바라볼 때 약 2.11인치의 응시 위치 추정 오차를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 처리시간은 Pentium PC(233MHz)환경에서 320${\times}$240 화소 크기의 영상을 사용할 때 약 0.7초가 소요되었다.

비직교 다중 접속 기법은 주파수 효율을 향상시키는 차세대 무선 네트워크의 주요 후보 기술이다. 비직교 다중 접속은 사용자의 전력 할당 기반 채널 이득 차를 활용하여 중첩 코딩을 한다. 그러나 비슷한 채널 이득을 가질 때 중첩코딩의 원리를 위반하여 신호를 전송하기 어렵다. 이를 해결하기 위해 제안된 기법이 전송 신호의 위상 회전을 활용한 비직교 다중 접속 기법이다. 이 기술은 전송 신호의 위상 회전을 통해 중첩 코딩된 신호 사이의 최소 거리를 늘림으로써 비트 오차율을 개선하여 기존 채널 이득 문제를 해결한다. 본 논문에서는 주파수 효율 개선을 위해 위상 회전을 이용한 비직교 다중 접속 기반 새로운 인덱스 변조를 제안한다. 사용자 페어링에서 사용자마다 위상 회전의 활성화된 상태에 따라 인덱스 비트를 할당하여 추가 정보 비트를 전송하고자 한다. 모의실험을 통해 기존 비직교 다중 접속 대비 위상 회전을 이용할 경우 비트 오차율 개선 및 인덱스 변조를 이용하여 전송 용량의 향상을 확인하였다.

Excessive torsional behaviour is one of the major reasons for failure of buildings, as inferred from past earthquakes. Numerous seismic codes across the world specify a displacement-based or drift-based criterion for classifying buildings as torsionally irregular. In recent years, quite a few researchers have pointed out some of the inherent deficiencies associated with the current codal guidelines on torsional irregularity. This short communication paper aims to envisage the need for a revision of the displacement-based guidelines on torsional irregularity, and further highlight the appropriateness of a rotation-based criterion. A set of 6 reinforced concrete building models with asymmetric shear walls are analysed using ETABS v18.0.2, by varying the number of stories from 1 to 9, and the torsional irregularity coefficient of various stories is calculated using the displacement-based formula. Since rotation about the vertical axis is a direct indication of the twist experienced by a building, the calculated torsional irregularity coefficients of all stories are compared with the corresponding floor rotations. The conflicting results obtained for the torsional irregularity coefficients are projected through five categories, namely mismatch with floor rotations, inconsistency in trend, lack of clarity in incorporation of negative values, sensitivity to low values of displacement and error conceived in the mathematical formulation. The findings indicate that the irregularity coefficient does not accurately represent the torsional behaviour of buildings in a realistic sense. The Indian seismic code-based values of 1.2 and 1.4, which are used to characterize buildings as torsionally irregular are observed to be highly sensitive to the numerical values of displacements, rather than the actual degree of rotation. The study thus emphasizes the revision of current guidelines based on a more relevant rotation-based or eccentricity-based approach.

For complex channel blind equalization, this study presents the performance and characteristics of two complex blind information theoretic learning algorithms (ITL) which are based on minimization of Euclidian distance (ED) between probability density functions compared to constant modulus algorithm which is based on mean squared error (MSE) criterion. The complex-valued ED algorithm employing constant modulus error and the complex-valued ED algorithm using a self-generated symbol set are analyzed to have the fact that the cost function of the latter forces the output signal to have correct symbol values and compensate amplitude and phase distortion simultaneously without any phase compensation process. Simulation results through MSE convergence and constellation comparison for severely distorted complex channels show significantly enhanced performance of symbol-point concentration with no phase rotation.

This paper analyzes effect of the spinning vehicle on the GPS signal. In rapid spinning vehicles such as missiles and space rockets, carrier phase and frequency depend on the roll rate of the vehicle. It induces phase and frequency modulation caused by the roll rate. The modulated phase and frequency increase dynamic stress error of the tracking loop. Even though higher order tracking loop can remove dynamic stress error, the dynamic stress error can not be remove in this case. In order to analyze the effect of the spinning vehicle on the GPS signal, the experiments are carried out. The experiment results show the modulation of the carrier frequency and phase caused by the roll rate of the spinning vehicle.

The effectiveness of software error compensation for thermally induced machine tool errors relies on the prediction accuracy of the pre-established thermal error models. The selection of optimal sensor locations is the most important in establishing these empirical models. In this paper, a methodology for the selection of optimal sensor locations is proposed to establish a robust linear model which is not subjected to collinearity. Correlation coefficient and time delay are used as thermal parameters for optimal sensor location. Firstly, thermal deformation and temperatures are measured with machine tools being excited by sinusoidal heat input. And then, after correlation coefficient and time delays are calculated from the measured data, the optimal sensor location is selected through hard c-means clustering and sequential selection method. The validity of the proposed methodology is verified through the estimation of thermal expansion along Z-axis by spindle rotation.

This paper deals with an optimal angle error reduction method of magnetic position sensor using hall effect elements. The angle detection simulation for the magnetic position sensor is performed by 3 dimensional finite element method and Taguchi method, one of the design of experiments. The magnetic position sensor is required to generate ideal sine and cosine waveforms from its hall effect elements according to rotation angle for precise angle information. However, the output signals are easy to include harmonics due to uneven magnetic field distribution from permanent magnet in the air-gap in the vicinity of hall effect elements. For the Taguchi method, three design parameters related to position of hall effect elements and shape of back yoke are selected. The characteristics of optimal magnetic position sensor are compared with those of original one in terms of simulation as well as experiment. Finally, the performances of the motor adopting original model and optimal model are represented for the purpose of verification of motor performance due to signals from magnetic position sensor.

The torsion bar, which is a steering torque sensor, is mounted between the steering pinion and the input shaft in the IPA(input pinion assembly). Accurate torque measurement is important to improve the sense of operation, and the straightness of the torsion bar can affect torque measurement. In this study, the amount of bending was measured and the exact shape was analyzed regarding the bending phenomenon in the press-fitting process for torsion bars. The effect of alignment error was analyzed through finite element forming analysis. Process data analysis was conducted for the double-end press fit model. If there is an alignment error of about 10% of the serration tooth height, the indentation load is reduced by about 10%. If there is an alignment error, the torsion bar is rotated.
