Most features of nature and phenomena we encounter in many branches of science are inherently very irregular and have fractal aspects. Thus the analysis of them with the traditional methods such as a differential operator may result in their ill-posed problems. To settle these problems, one may use several type of mean filters which smooth the input signal. However when a given function or data are complex in their nature, there may be loss of some original information during these process. In this paper, we utilized the tangent plane method instead of mean filters for the purpose of less loss of information and more smoothness. After then we attempt to take more accurate edges for the irregular image on the basis of the Otzu threshold. Finally we introduce the effective edge extracting method which use the fractal dimension representing the complexity of the given image.

It has been noted that the low frequency absorption coefficient of a porous sample placed in a standing wave tube is affected by the nature of the sample's edge constraint. The edge constraint has the effect of stiffening the solid phase of the sample, which itself can be strongly coupled to the material's fluid phase, and hence the incident sound field, by viscous means at low frequencies. In recent work it has also been shown that such a circumferential constraint causes the low frequency transmission loss of a layer of fibrous material to approach a finite low frequency limit that is proportional to the flow resistance of the layer and which is substantially higher than that of an unconstrained sample of the same material. However, it was also found that the benefit of the circumferential edge constraint was reduced in a transitional frequency range by a shearing resonance of the sample. Here it will be shown that the effect of that resonance can be mitigated or eliminated by adding additional axial and radial constraints running through the sample. It will also be shown that the constraint effect can be modeled closely by using a finite element procedure based on the Biot poroelastic theory. Implications for low frequency barrier design are also discussed.

Numerical investigation of the groove trap effect with variation in the groove-edge radius of curvature is presented here. The trap effect is evaluated in a two-dimensional sliding bearing using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). This simulation is based on the discrete phase model (DPM) and standard k - ε turbulence model using commercial CFD software, FLUENT. The numerical results are evaluated by comparisons with streamlines and particle trajectories in the grooves. Grooves are applied to various lubrication systems to improve their lubrication characteristics, such as load carrying capacity increment, leakage reduction, frictional loss reduction, and preventing three-body abrasive wear due to trapping effect. This study investigates the grove trapping effect for various groove-edge radius of curvature values and Reynolds numbers. The particle is assumed to be made of steel, with a circular shape, and is injected as a single particle in various positions. One-way coupling is used in the DPM model because the single particle injection condition is applied. Further, the "reflect" condition is applied to the wall boundary and "escape" condition is used for the "pressure inlet" and "pressure outlet" boundaries. From the numerical results, the groove edge radius is found to influence the groove trap effect. Moreover, the groove trap effect is more effective when applying the groove edge radius.

The prediction method of the performance and aerodynamic noise from a sirocco fan was developed and compared with measured data. To predict the performance of the sirocco fan, the well-known slip coefficients and various loss models were tested and applied to forward curved sirocco impellers. Using loss models proposed for both impeller and casing, the predicted performance characteristics were in good agreement with measured ones by an ANSI test plenum. Various scaling models for aerodynamic noise from the sirocco fan were evaluated and tested against measured power levels in terms of flow coefficient. It was shown that the turbulent broadband sound power from the sirocco fan can be modeled successfully by trailing edge noise.

In this paper, several diffraction formulas are discussed and diffraction losses predicted from each formula for a wedge are compared with each other. Simulation results are also compared with measured ones. It turns out that in real situations, where many scatterers are located around a diffracting wedge, the prediction from the simple knife-edge formula for vertical polarization agrees well with the measured loss.

Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a high performance method for forwarding packets (frames) through a network. It enables routers at the edge of a network to apply simple labels to packets (frames). we use MPLS in the core network for internet. MPLS provide high speed switching and traffic engineering in MPLS domain but at the Label Edge Router(LER) there is frequently cell discarding via congestion and buffer management method. It is one of the most important reasons retransmission and congestion. In this paper we propose advanced LER scheme that provide less cell loss rate also efficient network infrastructure.

In this paper, we propose a scheme that can control the loss probability of low priority class bursts by dynamically adjusting the assembly threshold of low priority class. The key ideas is that the loss Probability of the longer burst increases as the load increases, thus reduced low priority class burst length decreases the loss priority at high traffic load. To achieve this aim, we first derive the relation among the loss probability, the assembly threshold, and the traffic load. In this paper we derive the relation by curve fitting on the simulation results. The ingress edge routers periodically or by event-driven receives the proper corresponding assembly threshold information from the core routers. This assembly threshold is calculated from the derived relation so that the required loss probability of the low priority class bursts in the network is satisfied. The simulation results show that the proposed scheme performs well to meet the loss probability target as expected.

There are mainly 3 heat losses from solar collector; top, bottom, and edge heat loss. Usually edge heat loss is small so that could be neglected. Of the total thermal losses occurring in a flat plate solar collector, top loss heat losses are dominant. Therefore it is necessary to calculate the top loss coefficient accurately in order to find out performance of solar collector. The flat plate solar collector(regenerator in summer) used in this study was made for year-round all conditioning. In order to find out collector efficiency for heating in winter without a system change, outdoor experiment was done. The top loss coefficient of this collector was about 3 to $4.5W/m^2^{\circ}C$. Futhermore use of selective coating in trickling surface can improve a performance of flat plate solar collector.

In this paper, A new microstrip bandpass filter is proposed. The novelty of the proposed structures is to use a interdigital capacitor and embeded slot that are fanned on a patch resonator such that its insertion loss and size can be significantly reduced simultaneously. As a result, it is found that the resonant frequency of patch filter designed at 5 GHz is decreased to 1.8946 GHz and the insertion loss is reduced from -2.168 dB to -0.379 dB. This proposed filter has small size and low insertion loss in comparison with the conventional parallel edge coupled bandpass filter.

In this paper, we consider 19 cells with the two tiers for polar-rectangular coordinates (PRCs) and provide the cell edge performance of cellular networks based on distance from cell center i.e., BS (base station). When FFR is applied(or adopted) to cell edge, it is expected that BS cooperation, or a coordinated multipoint (CoMP) multiple access strategy will further improve the system performance. We proposed a new method to evaluate the sum rate capacity of the MIMO DC of multicell system. We improve the performance of cell edge users for intercell interference cancelation in cooperative downlink multicell systems. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms the reference schemes, in terms of cell edge SINR (signal-to-interference-noise ratio) with a minimal impact on the network path loss exponent. We show 13 dB improvements in cell-edge SINR by using reuse of three relative to reuse of one. BS cooperation has been proposed to mitigate the cell edge effect.
