Methods based on nonlinear static analysis as simple tools could be used for the seismic analysis and assessment of structures. In the present study, capability of the N2 method as a well-known nonlinear analysis procedure examines for the estimation of the damage index of multi-storey reinforced concrete frames. In the implemented framework, equivalent single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) models are utilized for the global damage estimation of multi-degree-of-freedom (MDOF) systems. This method does not require high computational analysis and subsequently decreases the required time of seismic design and assessment process. To develop the methodology, RC frames with period range from 0.4 to 2.0 s under 40 records are studied. The effectiveness of proposed technique is evaluated through numerical study under near- and far-field earthquake ground motions. Finally, the results of developed models are compared with two other simplified schemes along with nonlinear time history analysis results of multi-storey frames. To improve the accuracy of damage estimation, a modified relation is presented based on the N2 method results for near- and far-field earthquakes.

Resource sharing is a major advantage of distributed computing. However, a distributed computing system may have some physical or virtual resource that may be accessible by a single process at a time. The mutual exclusion issue is to ensure that no more than one process at a time is allowed to access some shared resource. The article proposes a token-based mutual exclusion algorithm for the clustered mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). The mechanism that is adapted to handle token passing at the inter-cluster level is different from that at the intra-cluster level. It makes our algorithm message efficient and thus suitable for MANETs. In the interest of efficiency, we implemented a centralized token passing scheme at the intra-cluster level. The centralized schemes are inherently failure prone. Thus, we have presented an intra-cluster token passing scheme that is able to tolerate a failure. In order to enhance reliability, we applied a distributed token circulation scheme at the inter-cluster level. More importantly, the message complexity of the proposed algorithm is independent of N, which is the total number of nodes in the system. Also, under a heavy load, it turns out to be inversely proportional to n, which is the (average) number of nodes per each cluster. We substantiated our claim with the correctness proof, complexity analysis, and simulation results. In the end, we present a simple approach to make our protocol fault tolerant.

Recently, drones have been used in various field to overcome time and space limitations. However, single drone still has a lot of restriction on transportation wight and travel time. Therefore many studies have been conducted to increase the utilization by swarm of drones. Many things should be additionally considered in order to operate swarming drones securely. Especially the group key management is a challenging research topic in tactical domain due to existence of adversary that has anti-drone skill. In this paper, we proposed an efficient group key management scheme for tactical swarming drone networks where an adversary equipped with anti-drone skills exists. The group key can be updated with a small number of message exchange compared to other convenience schemes. The numerical and simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme manages the group key efficiently and securely.

During the last decade, the security of digital images has received considerable attention in various multimedia transmission schemes. However, many current cryptosystems tend to adopt a single-layer permutation or diffusion algorithm, resulting in inadequate security. A hierarchical bilateral diffusion architecture for color image encryption is proposed in response to this issue, based on a hyperchaotic system and DNA sequence operation. Primarily, two hyperchaotic systems are adopted and combined with cipher matrixes generation algorithm to overcome exhaustive attacks. Further, the proposed architecture involves designing pixelpermutation, pixel-diffusion, and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) based block-diffusion algorithm, considering system security and transmission efficiency. The pixel-permutation aims to reduce the correlation of adjacent pixels and provide excellent initial conditions for subsequent diffusion procedures, while the diffusion architecture confuses the image matrix in a bilateral direction with ultra-low power consumption. The proposed system achieves preferable number of pixel change rate (NPCR) and unified average changing intensity (UACI) of 99.61% and 33.46%, and a lower encryption time of 3.30 seconds, which performs better than some current image encryption algorithms. The simulated results and security analysis demonstrate that the proposed mechanism can resist various potential attacks with comparatively low computational time consumption.

본 논문에서는 다중경로 채널 환경의 초광대역 (Ultra Wide Band; UWB) 시스템에서 고속 고신뢰의 동기획득을 위한 향상된 두 단계 신호 탐색 기법인 TSS-LS(Two-Step Search scheme with the Linear search based Second step) 를 제안한다. 제안된 TSS-LS는 기존에 본 저자들이 제안하였던 TSS-BS (Two-Step Search scheme with the Bit reversal search based Second step)와 견줄만한 매우 빠른 동기획득 성능을 달성할 수 있도록 Single-Dwell 연속 동기탐색 기법에 기초하고 있으며 두 개의 다른 임계값과 탐색창을 적용한다. 반면, 제안된 TSS-LS는 UWB 시스템에서 통기획득의 고신뢰성을 보장하기 위해 두번째 단계에서 Bit Reversal 탐색 알고리즘을 사용하는 TSS-BS와는 달리 Linear 탐색 알고리즘을 적용하게 된다. IEEE 802.15.3a의 UWB 다중경로 채별 환경에서의 모의실험 결과, 일반적인 탐색 기법보다 본 논문에서 제안된 두 단계 탐색 기법의 정규화된 평균 동기획득 소요 시간이 큰 폭으로 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 특히, 신호 동기획득 과정과 연동된 비트오율 성능 평가에서 제안된 TSS-LS 기법의 경우 높은 신호대 잡음비에 대해 이상적인 성능에 필적하는 매우 우수한 성능을 보임을 확인할 수 있었다.

지질 매체의 층상 불균질성과 지하수 양수 방식이 해안 대수층 내에서의 지하수 유동과 염분 이동에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 분석하기 위하여 수리동역학적 분산 수치 모델을 이용한 일련의 삼차원 수치 모델링이 수행되었다. 해수 침투에 대한 층상 불균질성의 영향을 평가하기 위하여 하부 사토층(대수층)과 상부 점토층(준대수층)으로 구성된 층상 불균질 해안 대수층과 이에 상응하는 등가의 물질로 구성된 균질 해안 대수층을 수치 모델링하였다. 또한 해수 침투에 대한 지하수 양수 방식의 영향을 평가하기 위하여 전체 수치 모델링 기간 동안에 동일한 양의 지하수를 양수하는 연속적인 지하수 양수 방식과 두 개의 주기적인 지하수 양수 방식을 상기한 두 해안 대수층에 적용하였다. 수치 모델링 결과는 주기적인 지하수 양수 방식이 층상 대수층의 하부 사토층뿐만 아니라 상부 점토층에서의 지하수 유동과 염분 이동에 보다 중대한 악영향을 끼치며, 주기적인 지하수 양수 시에 양수 강도가 클수록 지하수 염수화가 공간적 및 시간적으로 더욱 심화됨을 보여준다. 이는 해수 침투에 의한 지하수 염수화를 최소화하기 위해서는 지속적인 지하수 양수 방식이 보다 더 적합할 수 있음을 의미한다. 또한 수치 모델링 결과는 주기적인 지하수 양수시에 상부 점토층에서의 지하수 염수화 양상이 하부 사토층에서의 그것에 비해 매우 다르게 발생함을 보여준다. 이러한 두 지층 사이의 지하수 염수화 양상의 차이는 층상 해안 대수층의 층상 불균질성에 기인하는 것으로 해석된다.

In this paper, an isolated ZVS-PWM boost converter is proposed for single stage line conversion. For power factor correction, we used the half bridge topology at the primary side of isolation transformer permitting switching devices to operate under ZVS by using circuit parastics and operating at a fixed duty ratio near 50%. Thus the relatively continuous input current distortion and small size input filter are also achievable. The ZVS-PWM boost operation of the proposed converter can be achieved by using the boost inductor $L_f$, main switch $Q_3$, and simple auxiliary circuit at the secondary side of isolation transformer. The secondary side circuit differ from a conventional PWM boost converter by introduction a simple auxiliary circuit. The auxiliary circuit is actived only during a short switching transition time to create the ZVS condition for the main switch as that of the ZVT-PWM boost converter. With a single stage, it is possible to achieve a sinusoidal line current at unity power factor as well as the isolated 48V DC output. Comparing to the two stage schemes, overall effiency of the proposed converter is highly improved due to the effective ZVS of all devices as well as single stage power conversion. Thus, it can be operated at high switching frequency allowing use of small size input filter. Minimum voltage and current stress make it high power application possible.

본 논문은 버퍼가 장착된 복수개의 중계기가 존재하는 연쇄적 데이터 중계 네트워크에서 각 중계기가 이미 복호에 성공한 정보를 활용하여 인접 중계기로부터의 간섭을 원천적으로 제거하는 새로운 중계 기법을 제안한다. 기존의 버퍼기반 중계 선택기술에서는 송신단으로부터 데이터를 수신할 중계기와 수신단으로 데이터를 전송할 중계기를 각각 하나씩 선택한다. 그러나 제안된 중계 기법에서는 수신단으로 데이터를 전송할 중계기가 선택된 후 나머지 모든 중계기들은 송신단으로부터 도착한 신호의 복호를 시도하고 복호에 성공한 모든 중계기들은 자신의 버퍼에 복호된 신호를 저장한다. 제안된 기법에서는 자신이 데이터를 전송했을 때, 자신의 신호가 수신단에 성공적으로 도착하면서 동시에 송신단으로부터 도착한 신호 복호에 성공하는 중계기의 수를 최대화하는 중계기가 선택된다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제안된 중계기 선택 방식이 기존 중계기 선택 기법에 비해 훨씬 더 좋은 성능을 보이는 것을 확인한다.

More than 42 000 fires occur nationwide and cause over 2500 casualties every year. There is a lack of specialized equipment, and rescue operations are conducted with a minimal number of apparatuses. Through-the-wall radars (TTWRs) can improve the rescue efficiency, particularly under limited visibility due to smoke, walls, and collapsed debris. To overcome detection challenges and maintain a small-form factor, a TTWR system-on-chip (SoC) and its architecture have been proposed. Additive reception based on coherent clocks and reconfigurability can fulfill the TTWR demands. A clock-based single-chip infrared radar transceiver with embedded control logic is implemented using a 130-nm complementary metal oxide semiconductor. Clock signals drive the radar operation. Signal-to-noise ratio enhancements are achieved using the repetitive coherent clock schemes. The hand-held prototype radar that uses the TTWR SoC operates in real time, allowing seamless data capture, processing, and display of the target information. The prototype is tested under various pseudo-disaster conditions. The test standards and methods, developed along with the system, are also presented.
