  • In this paper, self-resonant characteristics of transformers were analyzed in accordance with changes of characteristics regarding to the stray capacitance, the volume of winding and the winding ratio were organized by formulas. Generally, the stray capacitance is considered as an unnecessary factor in processing transformers design as well as one of the inherent characteristics. In particular, these characteristics can be appeared clearly in the high frequency driving and Electrical resonance occurs in transformer, according to coupling with a magnetic factor at a particular frequency. In the case of high-voltage output applications, such as medical equipments, It is required to output high-voltage gain. Therefor, If Self-Resonant Characteristic is applied to High-Voltage transformer design, Not only the transformer and circuit but also related the system size can be reduced. So we propose it as one of additional high voltage transformer design methods.

  • Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the appropriate operating conditions through a factorial experiment for the secondary separating part of the self-propelled pepper harvester. Methods: An experimental setup that simulates the secondary separating part of the self-propelled pepper harvester was organized. Test samples were classified into three types according to the number of peppers on a stem, and 12 sets were prepared for each type. Among the operating conditions of the secondary separating part, the rotational speed of drum B (four levels), radial clearance between drums and cylindrical teeth (three levels), and speed ratio between the three drums (two levels) were set as the test factors, and tests were repeated three times for different levels of each factor. The appropriate operating conditions were determined by analyzing the separation ratio and damage ratio of the peppers collected through the secondary separating part. Results: The test factors changed the overall separation ratio and overall damage ratio in similar trends. In other words, the conditions that caused high overall separation ratios also exhibited high overall damage ratios. Owing to the high overall damage ratio in the condition with the highest overall separation ratio, the operating conditions should be selected considering both ratios. Conclusions: When the condition with more than 60% of overall separation ratio and less than 15% of overall damage ratio was considered as the appropriate operating condition, 70 rpm of the rotational speed of drum B, 5 mm of the radial clearance between drums and cylindrical teeth, and 7:3:5 for the speed ratio of the three drums A, B, and C should be applied for the secondary separating part used in this study. Supplementary studies will be required in the future to find optimal operating conditions through the actual field test under further divided test factors.

  • Korea's design developed closely related to economic growth and plays a key role in material growth, wealth growth, and consumption promotion today. Of course, it is true that Korea's design level has grown significantly, but it has not reached a trend-leading level. Behind this, it is thought that one of the reasons behind this is that most design companies are biased towards trend research and benchmarking from a supplier perspective, resulting in the creation of design sculptures. If you look at the examples that lead the world's design trends, you can see that their subjective thinking from the author's point of view accounts for a significant portion of design sculpture creation. Through an in-depth interview with designers and artists at both extremes of the spectrum of thought, I want to look at examples of self-expression design development and get implications for suggesting conceptual models of self-expression design sculpture. Through this, a conceptual model was proposed, which is organized into a five-step design creation process in which balanced thinking is achieved by combining the thinking system and process according to the writer's point of view with the majority of design creation dominated by supplier perspective.

  • An experimental study on flame lift-off characteristics of propane jet flame highly diluted with nitrogen has been conducted introducing acoustic forcing with a tube resonant frequency. A flame stability curve is attained according to forcing strength and nozzle exit velocity for $N_2$ diluted flames. Flame lift-off behavior with forcing strength and nozzle exit velocity is globally categorized into three; a well premixed behavior caused by a collapsible mixing for large forcing strength, a coexistent behavior of well-premixed and edge flames interacting with well-organized inner fuel vortices for moderate forcing strengths, and edge flame behavior for small forcing strengths. Special focus is concentrated on the coexistent behavior of the flame base in lifted flame since this may give a hint to a possibility which the flame base behaves like a well-mixed premixed flame in highly turbulent lifted flames. It is also shown that the acoustic forcing to self-pulsating laminar lifted flame affects flame lift-off behavior considerably which is closely related to downstream flow velocity, mixture strength, effective fuel Lewis number, and flame stretch.

  • This study proposed a robust detection algorithm. It detects face more stably with respect to changes in light and rotation forthe identification of a face shape. The proposed algorithm uses face shape asinput information in a single camera environment and divides only face area through preprocessing process. However, it is not easy to accurately recognize the face area that is sensitive to lighting changes and has a large degree of freedom, and the error range is large. In this paper, we separated the background and face area using the brightness difference of the two images to increase the recognition rate. The brightness difference between the two images means the difference between the images taken under the bright light and the images taken under the dark light. After separating only the face region, the face shape is recognized by using the self-organization feature map (SOFM) algorithm. SOFM first selects the first top neuron through the learning process. Second, the highest neuron is renewed by competing again between the highest neuron and neighboring neurons through the competition process. Third, the final top neuron is selected by repeating the learning process and the competition process. In addition, the competition will go through a three-step learning process to ensure that the top neurons are updated well among neurons. By using these SOFM neural network algorithms, we intend to implement a stable and robust real-time face shape recognition system in face shape recognition.

  • The purpose of this study is to propose cognitive ecological effects of fractal patterns in space design. This study investigated the perception and cognition problems regarding landscape patterns showing fractal properties from the cognitive perspective instead of the traditional speculative approach. In particular, the researcher has verified that fractal geometry theory and fractal pattern concept provide insight in space aesthetic values and cognitive effects. Research results are as follows. First, most environmentally-friendly fractal urban forms provide cognitive connectivity. In particular, this space provides a positive emotional response and preference to humans and displays self-organized complexity. This study found that such complexity of space form has characteristics corresponding to parallel cognitive structures of the human brain. Simultaneously, the researcher suggests that the fractal landscape pattern is an alternative for stiff and homogenized modern space. Second, fractal patterns provide hierarchical connectivity within the brain through continuous difference and repetition. In particular, self-similarities of fractal patterns administer significant visual grouping and coherence in human perception. It can be determined whether scaling coherence facilitates easier organization in cognitive organization. Third, fractal patterns in space design provide the basic method for achieving the connection between concept, construction, and urban factors. As a result, the researcher has suggested that scale distribution of geometrical factors, such as fractal patterns, an be a design method to connect various space typologies.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the dietary and the living habits of 606 university students located in the Chonnam area. The subjects included 290 freshmen (47.9%) and 316 undergraduate students (52.1%). This survey was conducted using a self-administered questionnaire. Most students (73.9%) skipped breakfast because of lack of time (65.8%) of the cases. Self-reported eating habits problems were eating irregular meal (52.8%), overeating (21.1%), unbalance diet (13.0%) and skipping meal (7.3%). The type of favorite snack was biscuit (31.8%) and cup Ramyon(31.8%). The weight control was higher in freshmen compared to undergraduate. The rates of smoking in freshmen and undergraduate were 21.0% and 26.6% respectively. The coffee intake and alcohol drinking frequency was higher in undergraduate compared to freshmen. The living habits of undergraduate students were undesirable. Therefore they should have a nutritional program to improve their food habits and the dietary behaviors for students' health. And nutritional education program should be organized practically and systematically.

  • In this paper, we propose an on-line recognition system of chinese characters using an adaptive resonance theory-1(ART-1) neural network. Strokes, primitive components of chinese characters are usually warped into a cursive form and classifying them is very difficult. To deal with such cursive strokes, we use an ART-1 neural network that has the following advantages: (1) it automatically assembles similar patterns together to form classes in a self-organized manner: (2) it directly accesses the recognition codes corresponding to binary input patterns after self-stabilizing; (3) it doesn't tends to get trapped in local minima, or globally incorrect solutions. A database for character recognition also dynamically constructed with generalized character lists, and a new character can be included simply by adding a new sequence to the list. Character recognition is achieved by traversing the chinese datbase with a sequence of recognized strokes and positional relations between the strokes. To verify the performance of the system. We tested it for 1800 daily-used basic chinese second per character. This results suggest that the proposed system is pertinent to be put into practical use.
