  • Cross-shore sediment transport is very important factor in the design of coastal structures, and the beach profile is mainly affected by a number of parameters, such as wave height and period, beach slope, and the material properties of the bed. In this study cross-shore sediment movement was investigated using a physical model and various offshore bar geometric parameters were determined by the resultant erosion profile. The experiments on cross- shore sediment transport carried out in a laboratory wave channel for initial base slopes of 1/8, 1/10 and 1/15. Using the regular waves with different deep-water wave steepness generated by a pedal-type wave generator, the geometrical of sediment transport rate and considerable characteristics of beach profiles under storm conditions and bar parameters affecting on-off shore sediment transport are investigated for the beach materials with the medium diameter of $d_{50}$=0.25, 0.32, 0.45, 0.62 and 0.80 mm. Non-dimensional equations were obtained by using linear and non-linear regression methods through the experimental data and were compared with previously developed equations in the literature. The results have shown that the experimental data fitted well to the proposed equations with respect to the previously developed equations.

  • 본 논문은 무선 셀룰러 시스템 환경에서 일정구간을 이동하는 지하철, 기차와 같이 규칙적인 이동 패턴을 보이는 운송 매체에 탑승한 사용자들의 이동성을 지원하기 위해 PGLT(Profile­based Group Location Tracking) 기법을 제안한다. 최근 무선 통신 기술의 발전으로 인한 이동 사용자(Mobile Terminal, MT)의 급증은 시그널링 트래픽의 증가로 이어져 결국 위치 관리 비용까지 높아지게 되었다. MT들이 동시에 새로운 등록 영역으로 이동할 때 GLT(Group Location Tracking) 위치 관리 기법에서는 기존 IS­41의 각 사용자들의 개별적인 위치 갱신 요청 대신에 그룹을 이용한 위치 갱신 요청으로써 위치 관리 비용을 줄였다. 그러나 본 논문에서 제안하는 PGLT 기법은 GLT 기법을 향상시킨 기법으로서, 사용자들의 규칙적인 이동 패턴 특성을 살린 프로파일 정보를 이용하여 그룹에 대한 위치 갱신 비용까지도 줄일 수 있다. MSRP­VLR(Mobility Scheduler on Regular Path)과 RMB(Regular path Movement Buffer)를 이용하여 일정구간을 이동하는 TV(Transportation Vehicle)가 위치 갱신 요청을 하면, MSRP­VLR은 이동 경로에 대한 프로파일 정보를 보내어 TV의 RMB에 저장함으로써 그 경로를 이동 시 그룹에 대한 위치 갱신 요청을 할 필요가 없게 된다. 따라서 PGLT 기법은 GLT 기법의 그룹 위치 갱신 비용을 줄임으로써 일정구간을 이동하는 TV에 탑승한 많은 사용자들에 대한 위치 관리 비용을 현저히 줄일 수 있다.

  • It is expected that per-user customized services are widely used in next generation Personal Communication Network. The ultimate goal for personalized service is the Virtual home Environment (VHE) providing ´same-look-and-feel´ services for the subscriber wherever he roams to. To provide personalized services for each call, per-user service profiles are frequently referenced, so efficient service profile management is essentially required. To realized the VHE, typically two schemes, can be employed; One is Intelligent Network based service control and the other is a full replication scheme that always replicates profile in user´s current zone. The first scheme is referred as Central scheme and th second scheme is the modified replication scheme of IMT-2000, we refer to as Follow-Me Replication Unconditional (FMRU). Since the Central scheme only depends on the service cal rate and the FMRU is merely dependent on the movement rate, it is apparent that FMRU scheme outperforms the Central scheme if the call to mobility ratio (CMR) is large, and vice versa. In this paper, we propose a new service profile replication schemes, Adaptive Follow-Me Replication (AFMR) that determine replication automatically according to the user´s CMR. We compared the performance of the AFMR with the non-adaptive Follow-Me Replication unconditional on Demand (FMRUD) scheme. Performance results indicate that as the CMR of a user changes AFMR adapts well compared to the existing schemes.

  • The treatment plan for orthognathic surgery must be based on accurate predictions, and this can be produced the most esthetic results. Treatment of prognathic mandible in adult is usually orthognathic surgery using mandible set back, but mandible with retruded chin point is needed additional chin augmentation. In this case, the directions between mandible and chin point are different therefore, the prediction of soft tissue reactions must be modified. In this study, we materialize the patients who was taken orthognathic surgery due to prognathic mandible, 11each(Group A) was taken only Bilateral Sagittal Sprit Ramus Osteotomy (BSSRO), 9each(Group B) was taken additional advancement genioplasty. The lateral cephalometric radiography taken 8 months later after orthognathic surgery by this patients were used. The results of this study were as follows : 1. The profile of lips was favorable after surgery due to upper lip to I-line became prominent and lower lip tc E-line was retruded. 2. In both group, upper lip moved posteriorly and nasolabial angle was increased. 3. The ratio of the soft tissue profile change in POGs point to skeletal B point movement was $84\%$ in group A and $66\%$ in group B, and there was statistical significance between group A and group B. 4. Vertical movement of hard tissue points is decreased in group A.

  • Preventing or reducing the damage impact of lateral soil movements on piled foundations is highly dependent on understanding the behavior of passive piles. For this reason, a detailed experimental study is carried out, aimed to examine the influence of soil density, the depth of moving layer and pile spacing on the behavior of a 2×2 free-standing pile group subjected to a uniform profile of lateral soil movement. Results from 8 model tests comprise bending moment, shear force, soil reaction and deformations measured along the pile shaft using strain gauges and others probing tools were performed. It is found that soil density and the depth of moving layer have an opposite impact regarding the ultimate response of piles. A pile group embedded in dense sand requires less soil displacement to reach the ultimate soil reaction compared to those embedded in medium and loose sands. On the other hand, the larger the moving depth, the larger amount of lateral soil movement needs to develop the pile group its ultimate deformations. Furthermore, the group factor and the effect of pile spacing were highly related to the soil-structure interaction resulted from the transferring process of forces between pile rows with the existing of the rigid pile cap.

  • This paper presents the results of a numerical investigation on the behavior of earth retaining wall system with emphasis on the groundwater lowering. Using the 2D stress-pore pressure coupled analysis, the effects of ground excavation and groundwater interaction were examined using wall horizontal deformation, ground surface movement, plastic strain pattern, effective stress distribution and axial stress of strut. In addition, based on the results from a parametric study on a wide range of soil profile and initial ground water table level, the ranges of wall displacement and ground deformation were suggested quantitatively.

  • In this paper, we proposed a new method detecting actions of some components driven by the coil excitation. Nuclear power reactors are typically controlled by the movement of several neutron-absorbing control rods into or out of the reactor core. For moving control rods, we use an electromagnetic-jack-typed mechanism, which is called Control Rod Drive Mechanism. This mechanism moves control rods by the step composed of sequential actions of components. In case any mechanical problems happen in the mechanism, the orders for the control rod movement from the higher system cannot be performed properly. This abnormal state must be monitored and the sequential actions of the components can be the monitoring target. The actions of components generate some deviations in the profiles of the currents flowing into the coils in the mechanism. We focused on this phenomena and devised a new method of detecting the actions of the components in Control Rod Drive Mechanism by using the wavelet transform for observing the current profile.

  • Experimental studies on combustion phenomena within a porous ceramic burner are reported. Main interest of the present work is to investigate fundamental flame behaviors and their effects on the burner operation. Due to high thermal capacity of the porous ceramic materials, the response of flame to burning condition changes is slow and thus to have a stabilized flame is quite difficult and takes much time. It is found that the temperature profile obtained at downstream of the flame zone is not much sensitive to the movement of flame and the speed of flame movement is less than 0.1 mm/sec for the conditions tested. With the premixed LPG/air flame imbedded within the porous ceramic burner, stable combustion regions and unstable combustion regions leading to blowoff or flashback phenomena are observed and mapped on flow velocity versus equivalence ratio diagram. For the development of burner operation technique which is more practical and safe, intermittent burning technique, where the fuel or/and air is supplied to the burner intermittently, is proposed as one of the flame control methods for the porous ceramic burner and tested in this study. Through the experiment, it is realized that the proposed method is acceptable in respect to burner performance and give much flexibility in the operation of porous ceramic burner.

  • Preoperative surgical simulation in orthognathic surgery has progressed in recent years; the movement of the mandible can be anticipated through three-dimensional (3D) simulation surgery before the actual procedure. In this case report, the mandible was moved to the intended postoperative occlusion through preoperative surgical 3D simulation. Right-side condylar movement change was very slight in the surgical simulation, suggesting the possibility of mandibular surgery that included only left-side ramal osteotomy. This case report describes a patient with a mild asymmetric facial profile in which the mandibular menton had been deviated to the right and the lips canted down to the left. Before surgery, three-dimensional surgical simulation was used to evaluate and confirm a position for the condyle as well as the symmetrical postoperative state of the face. Facial asymmetry was resolved with minimal surgical treatment through unilateral intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy on the left side of the mandible. It would be a valuable complement for the reduction of the surgical treatment if one could decide with good predictability when an isolated intraoral vertical ramus osteotomy can be done without a compensatory osteotomy on the contralateral side.

  • Blinds are a common type of shading device and are increasingly operated automatically to overcome the limitations of manual operation. Automated blinds need to be controlled to maximize benefits of daylight in the point of occupant comfort and energy consumption. However, the previous control methods could cause occupant's distractions by the undesirable control time interval and amount of blind movement. A few researches suggested the control concept for minimizing occupant's distractions by automatic blind control, but they did not provide optimal control algorithm to be useful in practice. In this paper, we propose an optimal control algorithm for automated blinds that can maximize not only visual comfort but also sunlight penetration into buildings based on occupants' preferences on blind movement and sunlight. The proposed control algorithm can prevent solar glare on workplane and minimize occupant's distractions to maximize occupants' visual comfort.
