The letters of the automobile tire are usually engraved on the side-wall. The shape of the side-wall is a sculptured surface generated by the rotational sweeping of a profile curve. The letters laid on the side-wall are usually designed by a 2-dimensional CAD. It is impossible to machine the letters on the surface accurately by 3-axis NC machining, because the axis of cutter should be tilted to align with the normal vector of the surface. In this case. the degree of freedom for the machine is at least four. This paper describes an idea for tool path generation of a 4-axis machine by using the 2-dimensional CAD data of the letters and the surface of the side-wall. This study includes the following procedures; (1) measuring the profile of the side-wall surface and curve-fitting of the measured points. (2) the 'non-parallel projection' of the letters on the side-wall, and (3) an inverse kinematics of the 4-axis lettering machine. Procedures in this paper are programmed in C-language on Windows95 environment. With a PC based CNC controller and a 4-axis lettering machine. these are tested sucessfully for the practical use.

In field of voice pathology, diverse statistics extracted form pitch estimation were commonly used to assess voice quality. In this study, we proposed robust pitch detection algorithm which can estimate pitch of pathological voices in benign vocal fold lesions. we also compared our proposed algorithm with three established pitch detection algorithms; autocorrelation, simplified inverse filtering technique, and nonlinear state-space embedding methods. In the database of total pathological voices of 99 and normal voices of 30, an analysis of errors related with pitch detection was evaluated between pathological and normal voices, or among the types of pathological voices. According to the results of pitch errors, gross pitch error showed some increases in cases of pathological voices; especially excessive increase in PDA based on nonlinear time-series. In an analysis of types of pathological voices classified by aperiodicity and the degree of chaos, the more voice has aperiodic and chaotic, the more growth of pitch errors increased. Consequently, it is required to survey the severity of tested voice in order to obtain accurate pitch estimates.

Detection of structural damage is an inverse problem in structural engineering. There are three main questions in the damage detection: existence, location and extent of the damage. In concept, the natural frequency and mode shapes of any structure must satisfy an eigenvalue problem. But, if a potential damage exists in a structure, an error resulting from the substitution of the refined analytical finite element model and measured modal data into the structural eigenvalue equation will occur, which is called the residual modal forces, and can be used as an indicator of potential damage in a structure. In this study, a useful damage detection method is proposed and compared with other two methods. Two degree-of-freedom system and Cantilever beam are used to demonstrate the approach. And the results of three introduced method are compared.

When controlling manipulator, degree of freedom is lost in singularity so specific joint velocity does not propagate to the end effector. In addition, control problem occurs because jacobian inverse matrix can not be calculated. To avoid singularity, we apply Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient(DDPG), algorithm of reinforcement learning that rewards behavior according to actions then determines high-reward actions in simulation. DDPG uses off-policy that uses 𝝐-greedy policy for selecting action of current time step and greed policy for the next step. In the simulation, learning is given by negative reward when moving near singulairty, and positive reward when moving away from the singularity and moving to target point. The reward equation consists of distance to target point and singularity, manipulability, and arrival flag. Dual arm manipulators hold long rod at the same time and conduct experiments to avoid singularity by simulated path. In the learning process, if object to be avoided is set as a space rather than point, it is expected that avoidance of obstacles will be possible in future research.

The main aim of this investigation is to explore the relationships between emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, personal accomplishment, and job satisfaction among employees working in the banking sector. A total of 214 respondents were surveyed for the purpose of this investigation and selected randomly from different banks located in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (K.S.A.). Job Burnout Inventory developed by Maslach and Jackson (1981) was taken into consideration to assess emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and sense of personal accomplishment, and job satisfaction scale was used to measure the degree of satisfaction level of the employees. The collected data were analyzed by means of descriptive and inferential statistics with the help of statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The most eye-catching findings of the investigation revealed that emotional exhaustion had the greater mean as compared to depersonalization and personal accomplishment. The inverse significant correlation has been observed between emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and job satisfaction while positive and significant relationship was observed between personal accomplishment and job satisfaction. Further, the result of the investigation from regression test indicates that the relationship existed between emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, personal accomplishment, and job satisfaction among employees working in the banking sector in the Kingdom.

Numerical analysis has been adopted in nearly all modern scientific and engineering fields due to the rapid and ongoing evolution of computational technology, with the number of grid or mesh points in a given data field also increasing. Some values must be extracted from large data fields to evaluate and supplement numerical analysis results and observational data, thereby highlighting the need for a fast and effective interpolation approach. The quadrilateral irregular network (QIN) proposed in this study is a fast and reliable interpolation method that is capable of sufficiently satisfying these demands. A comparative sensitivity analysis is first performed using known test functions to assess the accuracy and computational requirements of QIN relative to conventional interpolation methods. These same interpolation methods are then employed to produce simple numerical model results for a real-world comparison. Unlike conventional interpolation methods, QIN can obtain reliable results with a guaranteed degree of accuracy since there is no need to determine the optimal parameter values. Furthermore, QIN is a computationally efficient method compared with conventional interpolation methods that require the entire data space to be evaluated during interpolation, even if only a subset of the data space requires interpolation.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to explore the research trends of elderly oral health through a language network analysis. Methods: A total of 354 published studies with 668 keywords were collected from the Research Information Sharing Service (RISS) between 2000 and 2022. Language network analysis was performed using Textom 6.0, Ucinet 6.774, and NetDraw 2.183. Results: The most frequent keywords were 'elderly', 'oral health', 'quality of life', and 'OHIP-14'. The result of frequency-inverse document frequent keywords showed similar results to the most frequent keywords. The N-gram of keywords shows that 'elderly', 'oral health' (18 times) and 'elderly', 'depression' (7 times). As a results of the analysis of degree centrality and between centrality, 'elderly', 'oral health', and 'quality of life' were found to be high. The CONCOR analysis identified the main clusters of 'quality of life', 'oral health behavior', 'health', and 'oral function disorder'. Conclusions: The results of the current study could be available to know research trends in elderly oral health and it is necessary to improve more comprehensive study in follow-up study.

Let R_n be the space of rational functions with prescribed poles. If r ∈ R_n, does not vanish in |z| < k, then for k = 1 $${\mid}r^{\prime}(z){\mid}{\leq}{\frac{{\mid}B^{\prime}(z){\mid}}{2}}\sup_{z{\in}T}{\mid}r(z){\mid}$$, where B(z) is the Blaschke product. In this paper, we consider a more general class of rational functions rof ∈ R_m*n, defined by (rof)(z) = r(f(z)), where f(z) is a polynomial of degree m^* and prove a more general result of the above inequality for k > 1. We also prove that $$\sup_{z{\in}T}\left[\left|{\frac{r^{*\prime}(f(z)}{B^{\prime}(z)}}\right|+\left|{\frac{r^{\prime}(f(z))}{B^{\prime}(z)}}\right|\right]=\sup_{z{\in}T}\left|{\frac{(rof)(z)}{f^{\prime}(z)}}\right|$$, and as a consequence of this result, we present a generalization of a theorem of O'Hara and Rodriguez for self-inverse polynomials. Finally, we establish a similar result when supremum is replaced by infimum for a rational function which has all its zeros in the unit circle.

수원과 수용가 간 연결성은 비정상상황 시 상수도관망의 기능 유지 정도를 나타내는 시스템 특성 중 하나이다. 상수도관망은 점과 선으로 구성된 그래프로 간략화 될 수 있기 때문에, 연결성 평가를 위해 주로 그래프 이론이 적용되었다. 하지만, 대부분의 연구는 상수도관망에 적합하지 않은 무향-비가중 그래프 이론을 적용하였다. 본 연구에서는 유향-가중 그래프 이론을 상수도관망에 적용하였으며, 이를 기반으로 복잡한 수리해석 없이 상수도관망 연결성을 평가할 수 있는 지표인 SNSP (Source to Node Shortest Pathway)와 이의 역수인 SNSP-Degree (SNSP-D)를 제안하였다. 국내 J시 42개의 상수도관망을 이용하여 개발된 SNSP와 기존 상수도관망 성능평가지표 사이의 상관성 분석을 수행 및 검증하였다. 기존 상수도관망 성능평가지표는 수리해석 결과를 지표 계산에 이용하는 3개의 회복력(Resilience) 지표와 에너지 효율 지표이다. 분석 결과, SNSP의 역수인 SNSP-D의 합과 기존 상수도관망 성능지표 사이에 평균적으로 0.87 이상의 높은 피어슨 상관계수(Pearson Correlation Coefficient, PCC) 값이 도출되었다. 특히, 회복력 지표 중 하나인 Modified Resilience Index (MRI)와 에너지 효율 지표의 경우 PCC 0.93 이상의 높은 상관관계를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 다중 회귀 분석을 통해 SNSP-D와 회복력 및 에너지 효율 간의 상관성에 영향을 미치는 수리학적 변인을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 SNSP 지표가 상수도관망의 대략적인 회복력 및 에너지 효율 수준을 알려줄 수 있는 지표로 실무에서 널리 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

사람의 동작을 믿을 수 있게 따라가는 것은 감시용 비디오나 사람과 컴퓨터간의 사용자 인터페이스 개발에 있어서 필수적이다. 이 논문은 모습 기반법(appearance-based method)과 모델 사용법을 혼용하여 사람을 추적하는 새로운 방법에 관한 논문이다. 하나의 비디오 입력이 화소 단위 및 물체 단위로 처리된다. 화소 단위의 처리에 있어서 개별 화소색을 분류하는 훈련방법으로, 가우스 혼합 모델(Gaussian mixture model)을 사용하였다. 물체 단위의 처리에 있어서 사람 몸에 대한 삼차원 모델링을 하고, 모델 몸체를 투사면(projection plane)에 투사시켰다. 투사된 몸체와 배경을 제외한 영상과 계산 기하 방법을 사용하여, 화소보다 작은 단위로 겹쳐지는 면적을 계산하였다. 우리의 방법은 정방향 기구학 (forward kinematics)을 사용하므로 역방향 기구학(inverse kinematics)을 사용하는 방법과 달리 계산 결함(singularity)을 갖지 않는다. 이 논문에서는 사람의 동작을 추적하기 위한 문제를 비선형 방정식 문제로 바꾸었다. 비선형 방정식의 비용 함수는 전경(foreground)의 영상 실루엣(silhouette)과 투사된 삼차원 모델 몸체의 실루엣의 겹쳐지는 면적이다. 화소 단위의 영상을 화소를 하나의 면적으로 계산함으로써, 겹쳐지는 면적에 대한 실수 단위의 계산은 계산 기하를 사용하였다. 이 논문의 방법은 다양한 사람 동작을 인식하기 위하여 사용되었다. 비디오에 나타나는 사람 동작 추적은 매우 우수하다.
