  • Conformational free energy calculations using an empirical potential function (ECEPP/2) and the hydration shell model were carried out on the sulfonylurea herbicides of bensulfuron methyl (Londax) and metsulfuron methyl (Ally). The conformational energy was minimized from starting conformations which included possible combinations of torsion angles in the molecule. The conformational entropy of each conformation was computed using a harmonic approximation. To understand the hydration effect on the conformation of the molecule in aqueous solution, the hydration free energy of each group was calculated and compared each other. It was found that the low-free-energy conformations of two molecules in aqueous solution prefer the overall folded structure, in which an interaction between the carbonyl group of ester in aryl ring and the first amido group of urea bridge plays an important role. From the analysis of total free energy, the hydration and conformational entropy are known to be essential in stabilizing low-free-energy conformations of Londax, whereas the conformational energy is proved to be a major contribution to the total free energy of low-free-energy conformations of Ally.

  • This study explores contrastive relation among voiced bilabial fricative [${\ss}$], voiceless bilabial stop [p] and glide [w] in Middle Korean consonant system based on Probabilistic Model. Preceding researches about voiced bilabial fricative [${\ss}$] proposed two influential arguments. One is voiced bilabial fricative [${\ss}$] was an independent phoneme, the other is it was not an independent phoneme but an allophone of voiceless bilabial stop [p] in Middle Korean. This study applies Probabilistic Phonological Relationship Model (PPRM) for solving the problem of dichotomy about contrastive and allophonic relations. The analysis result of the contrastive entropy by PPRM suggests that voiced bilabial fricative [${\ss}$] was just an allophone of voiceless bilabial stop [p] or glide [w] in Middle Korean. Comparing the entropies between [p] and other consonants with the entropies between [${\ss}$] and other consonants, a continuum defined in terms of entropy reveals that [${\ss}$] in Middle Korean was more allophonic than phonemic.

  • In this paper, we propose an effective dynamic range compression (DRC) method of infrared images. A histogram of infrared images has narrow dynamic range compared to visible images. Hence, it is important to apply the effective DRC algorithm for high performance of an infrared image analysis. The proposed algorithm for high dynamic range divides an infrared image into the overlapped blocks and calculates Shannon's entropy of overlapped blocks. After that, we classify each block according to the value of entropy and apply adaptive histogram modification method each overlapped block. We make an intensity mapping function through result of the adaptive histogram modification method which is using standard-deviation and maximum value of histogram of classified blocks. Lastly, in order to reduce block artifact, we apply hanning window to the overlapped blocks. In experimental result, the proposed method showed better performance of dynamic range compression compared to previous algorithms.

  • 101 coding scheme, one of sliding block coding techniques, provides practically attractive features in some compression applications for image sources such as facsimile. This paper presents a new simple model of 101 coder. The results show that the entropy of the output of the 101 coder can be reduced close to the rate distortion bound of a binary first-order markov source.

  • The PVT and $^2H$-NMR characteristic of main-chain dimer liquid crystals having structures such as ${\alpha}$, ${\omega}$-bis[4,4'-cyanobiphenyl) oxy] alkane(CBA-10) were studied. In this work, V-T curves obtained from isobaris measurements on various pressures, volume changes were observed at the nematic-isotropic and nematic-crystal phase transition. The volume changes at the transition exhibit slight odd-even effect with respect to the number of methylene unit n. The values of the$({\Delta}S_{tr})_V$ obtained at the NI transition for CBA-10 was $12.6J/mol{\cdot}K$. The values of $({\Delta}S_{CN})_V$ for the CN transition was estimated on the basis of DSC data : $65.3J/mol{\cdot}K$. For both transition, it was found that the correction about the volume change is significant, ranging from 40 to 60% of the total transition entropy observed under constant pressure. The RIS analysis of the spectra was performed so as to elucidate the conformational characteristics of the spacer in the nematic phase. The conformational entropy changes at both CN and NI interphases were estimated on the basis of the nematic conformations taken from the conformation map as well as those derived from the simulation. The estimated conformational entropy change values were then compared with the corresponding constant-volume entropies obtained from PVT measurements. The correspondence between both entropy values was found to be quite good in consideration of the uncertainties involved in both experiment and calculations.

  • In the design of production system, buffer capacity allocation is a major step. Through polymorphism analysis of production capacity and production capability, this paper investigates a buffer allocation optimization problem aiming at the multi-stage production line including unreliable machines, which is concerned with maximizing the system theoretical production rate and minimizing the system state entropy for a certain amount of buffers simultaneously. Stochastic process analysis is employed to establish Markov models for repairable modular machines. Considering the complex structure, an improved vector UGF (Universal Generating Function) technique and composition operators are introduced to construct the system model. Then the measures to assess the system's multi-state reliability and structural complexity are given. Based on system theoretical production rate and system state entropy, mathematical model for buffer capacity optimization is built and optimized by a specific genetic algorithm. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by an application of an engine head production line.

  • The total container throughput of ASEAN is expected to increase continuously with economic development. However, ASEAN port infrastructure is insufficient to handle the increasing trade volume. According to the World Economic Forum, ASEAN ports except Singapore and Malaysia are ranked in low. Participation in ASEAN port development projects can lead an increase in trade efficiency with S. Korea by improving the port infrastructure of ASEAN countries. In addition, the S. Korean port-related industry can be energized through entering ASEAN port development projects. This study, which measures the efficiency of ASEAN ports, can be used as a basic guideline for the development and the planning of the ports. This study used Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) and Shannon's Entropy model together to measure ASEAN ports' efficiency. After measuring each DEA (CCR, I-BCC, O-BCC, SBM) weight, the efficiency of ASEAN ports is measured as reflecting each DEA weight. As a result, the ports of Singapore and Malaysia, the major ports in the world, have the highest efficiency. Further, Vietnamese ports need to raise efficiency along with increasing container throughput. Leam Chabang (Thailand), Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam), and Tanjung Priok (Indonesia) exhibit a negative correlation between container throughput and efficiency; therefore, the ports need to improve so as to maintain competitiveness. Lastly, Cambodia, Myanmar, and Brunei, which do not have active economic development, need to improve their ports for economic development.

  • Since the 1960s, many rivers have been polluted and destroyed due to river repair projects for economic development and the covering of small rivers due to urbanization. Many studies have analyzed rivers using measured river topographic factors, but surveying is not easy when the flow rate changes rapidly, such as during a flood. In addition, the previous research has been mainly about the cross section of a river, so information on the longitudinal profile is insufficient. This research used informational entropy theory to obtain an equation that can calculate the average river slope, river slope, and river longitudinal elevation for a river basin in real time. The applicability was analyzed through comparison with measured data of a river's characteristic factors obtained from a river plan. The parameters were calculated using informational entropy theory, nonlinear regression analysis, and actual data. The longitudinal elevation entropy equation for each stream was then calculated, and so was the average river slope. All of the values were over 0.96, so it seems that reliable results can be obtained when calculating river characteristic factors.
