High speed seam weldability of tin coated steels was investigated. Welding was performed by the laboratory wire seam welder that was equipped with process monitoring system Test results showed that increase in applied current and pressure reduced the total resistance across the welding electrodes. Lower and upper limits of welding current increased as the sheet thickness increased, while the acceptable welding condition range decreased. However, extremely low electrode pressure produced unstable welding condition range. The results also demonstrated that slower welding speeds widened the optimum welding heat input range.

In this paper an advanced algorithm for selecting a seam line automatically, which used to be selected by human operator for mosaicked images is presented. In addition to four factors proposed by automation theory, the FOM(Figure Of Merit) of tie point were taken into account to suggest the method to select a seam line applicatively and the algorithm was applied to mosaic test images.

본 논문에서는 동영상의 주요 컨텐츠를 보존하면서 영상의 크기를 변환하는 고속 동영상 리타겟팅 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 Seam Carving에서는 seam을 하나씩 구할 때마다 누적 에너지의 갱신이 발생하며, 여기서 누적 에너지는 동적계획법을 이용하여 계산하기 때문에 전체 연산시간의 지연은 불가피하다. 본 논문에서는 전체 동영상을 특징이 서로 비슷한 scene으로 나누고, 각 scene의 첫 프레임에서는 seam이 될 수 있는 모든 후보들 중 복수개의 seam을 추출하여 누적 에너지의 갱신과정을 줄여 고속화한다. 또한 scene의 두 번째 프레임부터 인접한 프레임 상호간에 상관성을 이용하여, 연속하는 프레임은 누적 에너지를 계산하지 않고 이전 프레임의 seam 정보를 참조한 계산만으로 모든 seam을 추출한다. 따라서 제안하는 시스템은 누적 에너지에 계산되는 연산량을 대폭 줄였으며 전체 프레임의 분석도 필요하지 않아 고속화가 가능하고, 컨텐츠의 떨림 현상은 발생하지 않는다. 실험 결과는 제안하는 방법이 처리 속도와 메모리 사용량 면에서 실시간 처리에 적합하고, 영상이 가지고 있는 컨텐츠를 보존하면서 영상의 크기를 조절할 수 있음을 보여준다.

스티칭 기술은 고화질의 360 VR 영상을 제작하는 과정에서 가장 중요한 요소 기술들 중의 하나이다. 스티칭 기술의 성능을 저하시키는 원인들에는 특징점 추출 과정의 오류, seam finding 과정에서 사용되는 마스크의 왜곡으로 발생하는 오류, 각 영상들의 밝기 보상 오류 등 다양한 원인들이 존재한다. 본 논문에서는 합성되는 각 영상들 간의 시차(View Disparity)가 존재함으로써 스티칭 성능이 저하되는 현상을 분석하고, 이 문제를 해결하기 위해 이음부 탐색(seam finding)의 전처리 과정에서 사용되는 효율적인 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 기술을 통해 기존 방법보다 개선된 마스크들을 제작하여 효율적인 이음부 탐색(seam finding)이 수행되도록 하고, 그 결과 개선된 화질을 갖는 360 VR 영상을 얻을 수 있음을 설명한다. 본 논문에서 실시된 다양한 실험들을 통해, 제안된 기술이 시차 왜곡이 존재하는 영상 신호들을 합성하는 과정에 효율적이면서 동작 복잡도도 높지 않음을 보이고 있다.

Precast concrete structure has many advantages, but the assembled seam will affect potentially the overall seismic performance of structure. Based on the sidewall joint located in the bottom of assembled monolithic subway station, the main objectives of this study are, on one hand to present an experimental campaign on the seismic behavior of precast sidewall joint (PWJ) and cast-in-place sidewall joint (CWJ) subjected to low-cycle repeated loading, and on the other hand to explore the effect of shape and position of assembled seam on load carrying capacity and crack width of precast sidewall joint. Two full-scale specimens were designed and tested. The important index of failure pattern, loading carrying capacity, deformation performance and crack width were evaluated and compared. Based on the test results, a series of different height and variably-shape of assembled seam of precast sidewall joint were considered. The test and numerical investigations indicate that, (1) the carrying capacity and deformation capacity of precast sidewall and cast-in-place sidewall were very similar, but the crack failure pattern, bending deformation and shearing deformation in the plastic hinge zone were different obviously; (2) the influence of the assembled seam should be considered when precast underground structures located in the aquifer water-bearing stratum; (3) the optimal assembled seam shape and position can be suggested for the design of precast underground concrete structures according to the analysis results.

In this paper, we present an algorithm for adjusting the position of a user-specified object considering image aesthetics. Specifically, the user-specified object is positioned according to the rule of thirds by inserting or deleting unimportant seam lines from the image. To find such seam lines, a novel weight map is designed using the spatial and color distances from the object. We also design and analyze two approaches to seam carving and insertion. Experimental results show that the proposed method can be used as an effective semi-automatic image recomposition scheme.

The weld seam tracking sensor is indispensable to improve the flexibility of automatic arc welding systems. Among the position sensing methods available, a laser displacement sensor is one of the most prevailing methods. In this study, a laser displacement sensor was examined on detecting the weld seam of lap joints in sheet metal arc welding. The output signal of the laser displacement sensor may ontain severe fluctuation from the effect of arc light, spatters, fume, etc. So a variety of signal processing methods was applied to smooth the output signal of the sensor. And then the weld joint was determined by using the central difference method. It was revealed that the quadratic mean method plays an important role in detecting the weld seam during welding especially.

A method to reduce seam line artifact in spatial compounding of ultrasonic images is presented. Spatial compounding is a speckle reducing imaging technique in which a number of ultrasound images of a given target that have been obtained from multiple view angles are combined into a single compounded image by combining the data received from each data point in the compounded image. Since different view angle results in different view area, and the images of different view arms are combined into an image, the compounded image consists of regions with different signal to noise ratio, and the boundary lines between these regions are visible as seam lines in the compounded images. In this paper, we present an algorithm that reduces the visibility of this seam line in the spatially compounded images. Design procedure for a FIH filter is described and the results of applying the filter to in-vivo ultrasonic images are analyzed.

For improvement in productivity and weld quality, weld seam tracking and welding parameter control are very essential in the welding of a structure which can not be cxactly fit-up due to mismatch, discontinous gap, deflection, etc.. In this study, an automatic weld seam tracking system is developed for I-butt joint structure, and the system consists of XYZ working table, vision sensor and user interface program. In the developed vision sensor system, an image projection algorithm for weld-line detection and an adaptive current control algorithm for gap variation were implemented. The user interface program developed in this study by basing on the objct oriented concept could provide very convenient way to utilize the tracking system with the pull-down menu driven structure. The developed system showed a good seam tracking and weld quality control capability corresponding to deflected weld lines and gap variations.
