  • In the area of data fusion, dealing with heterogeneous data sources, numerous models have been proposed in last three decades to facilitate different application domains i.e. Department of Defense (DoD), monitoring of complex machinery, medical diagnosis and smart buildings. All of these models shared the theme of multiple levels processing to get more reliable and accurate information. In this paper, we consider five most widely acceptable fusion models (Intelligence Cycle, Joint Directors of Laboratories, Boyd control, Waterfall, Omnibus) applied to different areas for data fusion. When they are exposed to a real scenario, where large dataset from heterogeneous sources is utilize for object monitoring, then it may leads us to non-efficient and unreliable information for decision making. The proposed variation works better in terms of time and accuracy due to prior data diminution.

  • Micro-Grid comprising Micro-Sources supplying several $kW{\sim}MW$ power to local customers is environmentally friendly and reliable. This paper deals with the development of simulation models of Micro-Grid on the PSCAD/EMTDC platform for analyzing various aspects of the interaction of the Micro-Grid. The developed switching level model adopts the space vector PWM. Both switching level and power frequency Micro-Source models are developed, which shows that power frequency modeling is sufficient for analyzing the phenomena of interest. Control characteristics of the Micro-Sources with the parameter and load power variation are analyzed for power quality enhancement. The simulation results show that the developed models are effective for studying Micro-Grid.

  • Temporal variation of nutrients and dissolved major and trace elements have been studied in the Yeongsan River, Korea. There were significant temporal fluctuations in the concentrations of these elements depending upon the flow condition. $NH_4$, $PO_4$, Na, Mg, Ca, K, Mn, Cu, Ni, Zn, Co, As and U concentrations were inversely related to the flow; that is, they are the highest at low flow and the lowest at high flow. It indicates that these elements are derived from point sources such as rock weathering and/or human activities and then diluted by increasing flow. Meanwhile, Fe and Si concentrations varied proportionally to the flow indicating that they are derived from diffuse sources including reactions within soil. The concentration-flow relationships showed that hydrology of the river is the most important factor controlling the chemical composition of the Yeongsan riverwater, which was compatible of the results of R-mode factor analysis.

  • The aim of this study is to analyze the sound insulation performance of windows depending on the sound source types and to propose the noise control method in the apartment house. The regions where apartment houses are constructed are varied in the dominant noise sources such as aircraft noise, railway noise and road traffic noise. For the experiment, nine noise sources including pink noise were selected and recorded, which was used in the experiment by reproducing. As a result of this study, the sound insulation performance of window was found that when the frequency contents of the noise were high level in all frequency bands the difference of sound insulation performance was negligible, but when the frequency contents were low level at particular frequency band the difference of sound insulation performance was shown very differently.

  • The effects of initial sugar concentration and the various nitrogen sources on the fermentation characteristics of Thraustochytrium aureum were investigated. The sugar conversion ratios decrease with increase in the initial sugar concentration regardless of the kinds of nitrogen sources. The specific growth rate, the biomass yield, and the DHA yield also decreased but approached constant values higher than the concentration of 30g/L. The sugar conversion ratios and the specific growth rate showed the highest values in case of using the yeast extract as nitrogen source. It was difficult to conclude that the variation of nitrogen source had some effects on the biomass yield. However, the initial sugar concentration had a rather effects on the biomass yield for the sugar concentration of 40 g/L showed 0.27. The nitrogen source that showed the greatest yield of DHA was sodium glutamate.

  • Cyclone is widely adopted in the vacuum cleaner, because of the simple structure, the high dust collection efficiency and its transparency feature, which can be shown to the customer. At past times, cyclone performance was represented by collection efficiency, flow rate, pressure drop etc. At recent times the noise problem is getting important as cyclone comes into home-appliances. In this paper, pressure drop of cyclone and it's noise were measured at the variation of the cyclone structure and the main sources of cyclone peak noise was found by experimental and numerical analysis. In addition, the structure for peak noise reduction was suggested and it is beneficial both pressure drop and noise reduction.

  • The transform trellis code is an optimal source code as a block size and the constraint length of a shift register go to infinite for stationary Gaussian sources with the squared-error distortion measure. However to implement this code, we have to choose the finite block size and constraint length. Moreover real-world sources are inherently non stationary. To overcome these difficulties, we developed a training algorithm for the transform trellis code. The trained transform trellis code which uses the same rates to each block led to a variation in the resulting distortion from one block to another. To alleviate this non-uniformity in the encoded image, we constructed clusters from the variance of the training data and assigned different rates for each cluster.

  • In this paper, we introduce a fire-detection system which is robust to light sources and environment changing. We can decide the threshold values that classify the regions between a fire flame and light sources by analyzing them in RGB color space. But we could not discriminate quasi-flame region from fire flame region with the value. The difference of mean-histogram technique make it possible to extract flame region more efficient because fire flame is continuously changing after it occurs. In order to validate real fire, this paper uses regional compactness in the end of process. Computer simulation show that proposed method make more robust to light sources and environment changing.

  • Aerosol Particles were collected in a heaby traffic region in pusan. Samples were collected in two size fractions with a two-stage sampler during the day and the night. Elemental concentrations of these aerosol particles were determined by a PIXE(Proton Induced X-ray Emission) analysis method. The results suggest that the elements originating mainly from natural sources such as Si, Ca, Fe, Cl, and K are dominent in the coarse fraction, but the elements such as S, Pb, Br, and Zn are dominent in the fine fraction. Br/Pb ratio are evaluated in both coarse and fine size fraction, and which are mainly emitted automobile sources. The study further also discussed other Br/Pb ratio related works described elsewhere. Sulfur in the fine fraction was continuously increased during the sampling period without time variation.
