본 연구의 목적은 복합재료의 이점을 증명하고, 비등방성 대칭 적층 원통형 쉘의 거동을 분석하는 것으로서, 비등방성 대칭 적층 원통형 쉘을 해석하기 위해서 전진차분법, 중앙차분법, 후진차분법으로 구성되어 있는 유한차분법을 적용하였다. 본 연구에서는 처짐과 모멘트를 자유도로 고려하였으며, 이는 모멘트 계산시 발생할 수 있는 오차를 줄일 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한 4변이 모두 단순지지된 경계조건을 고려하였다. 수치해석 결과, 유한차분법에 의한 본 연구의 프로그램이 비등방성 대칭 적층 원통형 쉘의 해석에 적합함을 알 수 있으며, 효과적인 보강섬유의 배치 방법을 제시하였다.

This paper focuses on the rigorous and holistic fatigue analysis of mooring chains for a deep draft semi-submersible platform in the challenging environment of the central Gulf of Mexico (GoM). Known for severe hurricanes and strong loop/eddy currents, this region significantly impacts offshore structures and their mooring systems, necessitating robust designs capable of withstanding extreme wind, wave and current conditions. Wave scatter and current bin diagrams are utilized to assess the probabilistic distribution of waves and currents, crucial for calculating mooring chain fatigue. The study evaluates the effects of Vortex Induced Motion (VIM), Out-of-Plane-Bending (OPB), and In-Plane-Bending (IPB) on mooring fatigue, alongside extreme single events such as 100-year hurricanes and loop/eddy currents including ramp-up and ramp-down phases, to ensure resilient mooring design. A detailed case study of a deep draft semi-submersible platform with 16 semi-taut moorings in 2,500 meters of water depth in the central GoM provides insights into the relative contributions of wave scatter diagram, VIMs from current bin diagram, the combined stresses of OPB/IPB/TT and extreme single events. By comparing these factors, the study aims to enhance understanding and optimize mooring system design for safety, reliability, and cost-effectiveness in offshore operations within the central GoM. The paper addresses a research gap by proposing a holistic approach that integrates findings from various contributions to advance current practices in mooring design. It presents a comprehensive framework for fatigue analysis and design optimization of mooring systems in the central GoM, emphasizing the critical importance of considering environmental conditions, OPB/IPB moments, and extreme single events to ensure the safety and reliability of mooring systems for offshore platforms.

본 논문에서는 백색잡음과 페이딩환경에서 IS-95 시스템 역방향의 성능을 평가하는데 있어 컴퓨터 수행시간을 개선할 수 있는 획기적인 방법을 제안하고 제안된 방법의 효율성은 샘플수의 형태로 입증된다. 현재 통신 시스템의 성능분석에 가장 많이 사용되는 MC(Monte Carlo) 시뮬레이션 기법은 낮은 에러율에서 많은 시뮬레이션 수행시간을 요구한다. 때문에 MC 방법은 컴퓨터 수행속도의 한계를 피할 수 없게 된다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 제안된 방식인 센트랄 모멘트 기법을 IS-95 시스템 역방향에 적용하여 MC 방법에서 요구되는 데이터 샘플수보다 적은 수신신호의 N차 센트랄 모멘트로부터 이산 확률밀집함수를 얻을 수 있다. 연속된 누적확률분포 함수는 보간법을 통해 정확하게 되고 샘플수에서의 개선 효과가 입증된다.

An experimental gear-box was set-up to simulate the real situation of the wind-turbine. Artificial cracks of different sizes were machined into the gear. Vibration signals were acquired to diagnose the different crack fault conditions. Time-domain features such as root mean square, variance, kurtosis, normalized 6th central moments were used to capture the characteristics of different crack conditions. Normal condition, 1 mm crack condition, 2mm crack condition, 6mm crack condition, and tooth fault condition were compared using ANFIS and DAG-SVM methods, and three different DAG-SVM models were compared. High-pass filtering improved the success rates remarkably in the case of DAG-SVM.

The load and resistance factors are generally obtained using the First Order Reliability Method (FORM), in which the design point should be determined and derivative-based iterations have to be used. In this paper, a simple method for estimating the load and resistance factors using the first four moments of the basic random variables is proposed and a simple formula for the target mean resistance is also proposed to avoid iteration computation. Unlike the currently used method, the load and resistance factors can be determined using the proposed method even when the probability density functions (PDFs) of the basic random variables are not available. Moreover, the proposed method does not need either the iterative computation of derivatives or any design points. Thus, the present method provides a more convenient and effective way to estimate the load and resistance factors in practical engineering. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the advantages of the proposed fourth moment method for determining the load and resistance factors.

In this paper, we propose the estimation method for the image affine information for computer vision. The first estimation method is given based on the XYS image normalization and the second estimation method is based on the image normalization by Pei and Lin. The XYS normalization method turns out to have better performance than the method by Pei and Lin. In addition, we show that rotation and aspect ratio information can be obtained using the central moments of both the original image and the sensed image. Finally, we propose the modified version of the normalization method so that we may control the size of the image.

We present an efficient algorithm for skew correction of business card images obtained by a PDA camera. The proposed method is composed of four parts: block adaptive binarization (BAB), stripe generation, skew angle calculation, and image rotation. In the BAB, an input image is binarized block by block so as to lessen the effects of irregular illumination and shadows over the input image. In the stripe generation, character string clusters are generated merging character strings and their inter-spaces, and then only clusters useful for skew angle calculation are output as stripes. In the skew angle calculation, the direction angles of the stripes are calculated using their central moments and then the skew angle of the input image is determined averaging the direction angles. In the image rotation, the input image is rotated by the skew angle. Experimental results shows that the proposed method yields correction rates of 97％ for business card images.

This paper presents a beat gesture recognition method to synchronize the tempo of a robot playing a piano with the desired tempo of the user. To detect an unstructured beat gesture expressed by any part of a body, we apply an optical flow method, and obtain the trajectories of the center of gravity and normalized central moments of moving objects in images. The period of a beat gesture is estimated from the results of the fast Fourier transform. In addition, we also apply a motion control method by which robotic fingers are trained to follow a set of trajectories, Since the ability to track the trajectories influences the sound a piano generates, we adopt an iterative learning control method to reduce the tracking error.

Exact solutions for stresses, strains, displacements, and the stress concentration factors of a rectangular plate perforated by an arbitrarily located circular hole subjected to in-plane pure shear loading are investigated by two-dimensional theory of elasticity using the Airy stress function. The hoop stresses, strains, and displacements occurring at the edge of the circular hole are computed and plotted. Comparisons are made for the hoop stresses and the stress concentration factors from the present study and those from a rectangular plate with a circular hole under uni-axial and bi-axial uniform tensions and in-plane pure bending moments on two opposite edges.

Shanmugam(1991) generalized the Poisson distribution to capture a restriction on the incidence rate $\theta$ (i.e. $\theta$ ＜ $\beta$, an unknown upper limit), and named it incidence rate restricted Poisson (IRRP) distribution. Using Neyman's C($\alpha$) concept, Shanmugam then devised a hypothesis testing procedure for $\beta$ when $\theta$ remains unknown nuisance parameter. Shanmugam's C ($\alpha$) based .results involve inverse moments which are not easy tools, This article presents an alternate testing procedure based on likelihood ratio concept. It turns out that likelihood ratio test statistic offers more power than the C($\alpha$) test statistic. Numerical examples are included.
