  • In current study, natural frequency response of fiber metal laminated (FML) fibrous composite panels is optimized under different combination of the three classical boundary conditions using particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and finite strip method (FSM). The ply angles, numbers of layers, panel length/width ratios, edge conditions and thickness of metal sheets are chosen as design variables. The formulation of the panel is based on the classical laminated plate theory (CLPT), and numerical results are obtained by the semi-analytical finite strip method. The superiority of the PSO algorithm is demonstrated by comparing with the simple genetic algorithm.

  • Diversity of available communication media has increased as the use of Internet and mobile technology increased rapidly. The traditional media tend to transform their roles and functionality. This change brings about the expansion of the span of media to be selected by users. In this study, we examined the characteristics of emerging communication media use based on Niche Theory. Online communication media in this study include Internet messenger, mobile phone, and e-mail. We also analyzed the relationship between the nature of task and the selection of communication media, that is, the effects of communication contexts(formal vs. informal, notification vs. request, superior vs. inferior) where by the communication partners are involved. The result of this study, mobile phone had the highest niche competitive superiority in all communication contexts, and internet messenger and e-mail made difference according to communication contexts. Also, we can notify internet messenger and e-mail have a mutual substitutive relationship by analysis of niche overlap.

  • This study is on the decomposition analysis of the IT export of Korea, Japan, and China (toward US IT market) by using log mean Divisia method. The analysis shows that the increase in the Korea-US IT exports is the result of not only the increase in the US's IT imports but also the increase in the US's IT market shares. The increases in the Japan-US IT export have shown to be the result of the increase of US's IT import but the market shares have been decreased. The increase in the China-US IT export is the result of the changes in the market shares, changes in IT import structure. and the IT import increase. In order to increase exports toward US markets, Korea have to continue increasing the market share of communication equipments, secure competitive power toward US IT markets with the decline of Japanese's market shares, and secure technical superiority over rising competitive power of Chinas IT industry.

  • Diagrid system has been in the spotlight for its superiority in terms of the resistance to lateral force when applied to skyscrapers. In diagrid system, most of columns can be eliminated because vertical loads (gravity loads) and horizontal loads (lateral loads) are delivered simultaneously thanks to the triangular shape of diagrid. However, lack of studies on connection shape and node connection details makes it hard to employ the system to the buildings. In this study, the structural safety of the node connections in circular steel tube diagrid system which has been considered in the Cyclone Tower in Korea (Seven stories below and fifty-one above the ground) was evaluated using the 4 full-scale specimens. The parameters are the extended length (20 mm, 40 mm & 60 mm), thickness (40 mm & 50 mm).

  • $Conform^{TM}$, a continuous extrusion forming process can produce a variety of very long extruded products such as aluminum alloyed wires, strips and profiles, hollow sectioned tubes, coated wires used in the current forming industry. This process has some advantages like as superiority of pre-heating free, availability of high extrusion ratio and continuous forming without stroke limit. But it is still difficult to analyze the realistic model of the process. In this study the analysis using two-dimensional model of $Conform^{TM}$ process together with several parametric investigations on the heat transfer are carried out by FEA code DEFORM $^{TM}2D$. In spite of simple model the results of analysis shows a good guidance to design the real process.

  • As very large scale integration technology has been developed, much more accurate, reliable technology is needed for outer lead bonding. Laser soldering has been researched as an alternative for fine pitch device bonding. This study is focused on how to select optimal laser soldering variables with which solder wets parent material, the microstructural results of laser soldering and the reliability test One of popular packages, QFP100 was soldered successfully with two kinds of solder. The inspection of the joint for reliability was carried out by optical microscope, SEM, EDAX and pull test, which demonstrated the superiority of laser soldering.

  • Profiles of naturally fractured surfaces of three sedimentary rock samples were plotted from the measured data using a mechanical profilometer. Fractal dimension of these profiles were computed and statistical F-test indicates that fractal dimension (FD) values can be used as a parameter for distinguishing the rock types. The comparison between FD values and a commonly used profile-roughness parameter called the Mayer's $Z_2$ parameter shows the superiority of the FD values as roughness estimator. Two-dimensional fractal roughness parameters of the same naturally fractured rock surfaces were also studied from their scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images at various magnification levels. The most suitable level of magnification of the SEM images for the study of the 2-D fractal roughness parameter was identified. The values of 2-D fractal roughness parameter for three different rocks were also compared using different methods of fractal dimensioning.

  • 한글의 글꼴 동일성 여부가 단어 우월 효과에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 두 편의 실험을 수행하였다. 첫 번째 실험에서는 바탕체 글꼴을 탐사 자극으로 사용하여 검사 자극과의 글꼴 일치 여부가 단어 우월 효과에 미치는 영향을 자극 제시 시간에 따라 알아보았다. 두 번째 실험에서는 첫 실험에서 얻어진 결과를 토대로 탐사 자극의 글꼴을 각각 바탕체와 세벌체로 하고, 검사 자극이 탐사 자극과 일치하는 경우와 그렇지 않은 경우의 단어 우월 효과에 대해 알아보았다. 두 실험 결과, 탐사 자극과 검사 자극의 글꼴 일치 여부는 한글 단어 우월 효과에 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 탐사 자극과 검사 자극의 문자형이 서로 달라도 단어 우월 효과가 나타날 수 있음을 의미하는 것으로 단어 우월 효과가 국지적인 시각 자극의 속성에 영향을 받지 않음을 보여주는 것이다.

  • In this paper, the swept source-optical coherence tomography system using frequency domain mode locked(FDML) laser has realized. The FDML swept source laser showed 55.03 kHz sweeping speed, 125 nm sweeping range, and 9 mW output optical power, which are the superiority of FDML laser compared to previous swept source lasers. Also, through the cross-sectional image captured at 5 frames per second for a mirror, a 1 mm-thickness glass plate, and a thumb bottom, the performance of the system has demonstrated.

  • Large-scale retrieval algorithm is problem for visual analyses applications, along its research track. In this paper, we propose a high-efficiency region division-based image retrieve approaches, which fuse low-level local color histogram feature and texture feature. A novel image region division is proposed to roughly mimic the location distribution of image color and deal with the color histogram failing to describe spatial information. Furthermore, for optimizing our region division retrieval method, an image descriptor combining local color histogram and Gabor texture features with reduced feature dimensions are developed. Moreover, we propose an extended Canberra distance method for images similarity measure to increase the fault-tolerant ability of the whole large-scale image retrieval. Extensive experimental results on several benchmark image retrieval databases validate the superiority of the proposed approaches over many recently proposed color-histogram-based and texture-feature-based algorithms.
