  • A seismic attenuation formula is derived from the intensity maps of medium sized four earthquakes that occurred in the southern part of Korean peninsula. In order to obtain the seismic attenuation formula, the the coefficients of four attenuation equations representing the intensity maps are integrated using the proper weighting factors depending on the credibility of the data are assigned to. The proposed formula shows the trend of attenuation similar to the ones for the Eastern North America for the region within the epicentral distance of 200km, but produces higher attenuation at farther distances. Though the attenuation curve is not derived from the instrumental data, the result could be a useful tool for the analysis of seismic hazard in Korean peninsula.

  • The position of each part of the Ten storied pagoda of Gyeongcheonsa has been changed because of illegal dismantlement and assembling throughout the history. There remain carved letters in the part of pagoda, which let us know the incorrect assembling of the parts, however, we still don't know the reasons. The pagoda has been under conservation process by the conservators from Conservation Science Division in the National Research Institute of Cultural Properties. It is one of the main purposes to find an original structure of the pagoda by appropriate assembling. The existence of iconography and carved letters are very useful in the conservation process. Mis-assembled parts are mostly in the pedestal of the Chinese letter('아') and in the bodies up to third floor. The iconography of the pagoda has many similarities to the Ten storied pagoda of Wongaksaji.

  • In conventional approaches such as a functinal approach or a parametric approach to online signature verification, which could not deal with the local shape of signature, much various important informations inherent in the local part of signature shape have been overlooked. In this paper, we try a structural approach in which a signature is represented as a structural form of handwriting primitives and the local parts along a signature handwriting can be selectively compared according to their discrimination power in the process of signature verification, As a result, the error rate is diminished in the case that the weights of subpattern units is applied into comparing process, which is the degree of discrimination power of local part. And also, the global variation and complexity of each signature extracted from the analysis of local shape is found useful in determining the decision threshold more precisely.

  • The purpose of this research is to present a practical method for efficiently monitoring a reliability growth process using AMSAA(Army Materiel Systems Analysis Activity) reliability growth model. The presented method is viable for identifying failure modes, incorporating design changes and monitoring reliability progress on an on-going basis during the early stages of a product development program. According to the Application Guide for EN 50126(RAM part for Rolling Stock), reliability growth monitoring is essential part of the main tasks of design phase in RAM growth monitoring. Implementation of reliability growth management program will provide very useful information on concept selection, product/process reliability, and cost effectiveness without too much time, money and engineering effort being spent on the development of failure suspect parts.

  • Soft X-ray is useful to identify the quality of fresh ginseng causing the inside cavity or white pan of red ginseng. The portion of low mass density identified by the difference in absorption of soft X-ray showed lower dry matter density and less or no response to iodine test indicating less accumulation or excess consumption of starch. The inside white part of red ginseng absorbed less X-ray than the normal part did. Probability for identification of the inside cavity or white at fresh ginseng was rather high (80-90%) in screen observation than f'3m reading and seemed to be increased further by using the developed screen and with training. The inside white of red ginseng appeared to be due to starch deficiency. Dry matter density appeared to be better than fresh weight density for the quality criterion.

  • This paper discusses on facial features extraction based on proposed skin color model. Different parts of face from input image are segmented based on skin color model. Moreover, this paper also discusses on concept to detect the eye and mouth position on face. A height and width ratio (${\delta}=1.1618$) based technique is also proposed to accurate detection of face region from the segmented image. Finally, we have cropped the desired part of the face. This exactly exacted face part is useful for face recognition and detection, facial feature analysis and expression analysis. Experimental results of propose method shows that the proposed method is robust and accurate.

  • The authors have already proposed a method for grouping of inputs of a logical circuit under test (LCUT) by use of M-sequence correlation. We call this method as input grouping (IG) method. In this paper, the authors propose a new method to estimate the faulty part in the circuit by use of IG when some information on the candidate of faulty part can be obtained beforehand. The relationship between IG and fault probabilities of a LCUT, and undetected fault ratios are investigated for various cases. Especially the investigation was made in case where the IG was calculated by use of n correlation functions (I $G_{inp}$). From the theoretical study and simulation results it is shown that the estimation error ratio of fault probabilities and undetected fault ratio of LCUT are sufficiently small even when only a part of correlation functions are used. It is shown that the number of correlation functions which are to be memorized to calculate IG can be considerably reducible from 2$^{n}$ - 1 to n by use of I $G_{inp}$. So this method would be very useful for a fault diagnosis of actual logic circuit.uit.

  • The technology of Computer Graphics (CG) has been in great progress for almost 20 years and has proven to be a valuable tool for a broad variety of fields, including nuclear engineering. To work in any hazardous environment for example radiation field is particularly challenging because the danger is not always visually apparent. In this study as the application of CG to nuclear engineering field, we proposed to develop a radiation risk recognition aided system in which various radiation information; radiation risks, radiation distribution, hazard information and so on, were visualized by CG. The system used the server and client system. In the server there were two parts; one (main-server) was the database part having various data and the other (sub-server) was the visualization part visualizing the human phantom by POV-Ray. In the client there was the input and output part. The outputs from the system were various radiation information represented by coloring, circle graph and line graph intuitionally. The system is useful for a broad range of activities including radiation protection, radiation management, dose minimization, and demonstration to the public.

  • This paper presents a method for estimating the noise source contribution of a pulse combustion burner in a multiple input system where the input sources may be coherent each other. By coherence function method, it is found that the biggest part of the noise source in the pulse combustion burner is generated by the part of the combustion chamber. This analysis is modeled as three input / single output system because the noise generating mechanism of the pulse combustion burner is very complicated. The coherence function method is proved to be useful tool for the identification of noise source. The overall levels of the radiated source pressure by coherence function method are compared with those measured and calculated by the frequency response function approach. The experimental results have shown a good agreement with the results calculated by the coherence function method when the input sources are coherent strongly each other. The estimation of shield effect by FRF method indicates that significant reduction can be achieved in sound radiation if only transmission path generated by the part of combustion chamber is acoustically shield.
