A Crankshaft multi grinding machine is developed for manufacturing of high precision crankshaft. The grinding head part of the developed machine should be moved precisely during grinding of work materials. In this paper, structural and modal analysis for the crankshaft multi grinding machine is carried out to check the design criteria of the machine. The analysis is carried out by FEM simulation using the commercial software. The machine is modeled by placing proper shell and solid finite elements. The results of structural and modal analysis confirmed that the structural characteristics of grinding machine and the structural safety are considered secure.

This paper deals with implementing a steganography based multi-modal biometric system. For this purpose, we construct a multi-biometrics system based on the face and iris recognition. Here, the feature vector of iris pattern is hidden in the face image. The recognition system is designed by the fuzzy-based Linear Discriminant Analysis(LDA), which is an expanded approach of the LDA method combined by the theory of fuzzy sets. Furthermore, we present a watermarking method that can embed iris information into face images. Finally, we show the advantages of the proposed watermarking scheme by computing the ROC curves and make some comparisons recognition rates of watermarked face images with those of original ones. From various experiments, we found that our proposed scheme could be used for establishing efficient and secure multi-modal biometric systems.

In the previous study, a simple but effective analysis procedure, named as an Improved Modal Pushover Analysis (IMPA) was proposed to estimates the seismic capacities of multi-span continuous bridge structures, on the basis of the modal pushover analysis which considers all the dynamic modes of a structure. Differently from other previous studies, IMPA maintains the simplicity of the capacity-demand curve method and also gives a better estimation of the maximum dynamic response of a structure. Nevertheless, its applicability has never been approved for multi-span continuous bridges with large differences in the length of their adjacent piers. This paper, accordingly, concentrates on a parametric study to verify the efficiency and limitation in application of IMPA through a correlation study between various analytical models including the Equivalent Single Degree Of Freedom (ESDOF) and Modal Pushover Analysis (MPA) usually used in the seismic design of structures. Based on the obtained numerical results, this paper introduces a practical guidance and/or limitation for using IMPA to predict the seismic response of a bridge effectively.

In this paper, an adaptive MEMD based modal identification technique for linear time-invariant systems is proposed employing multiple vibration measurements. Traditional empirical mode decomposition (EMD) suffers from mode-mixing during sifting operations to identify intrinsic mode functions (IMF). MEMD performs better in this context as it considers multi-channel data and projects them into a n-dimensional hypercube to evaluate the IMFs. Using this technique, modal parameters of the structural system are identified. It is observed that MEMD has superior performance compared to its traditional counterpart. However, it still suffers from mild mode-mixing in higher modes where the energy contents are low. To avoid this problem, an adaptive filtering scheme is proposed to decompose the interfering modes. The Proposed modified scheme is then applied to vibrations of a reinforced concrete road bridge. Results presented in this study show that the proposed MEMD based approach coupled with the filtering technique can effectively identify the parameters of the dominant modes present in the structural response with a significant level of accuracy.

Multi-model vibration control of laminated composites plates for various fiver orientations has been carried out by making use of piezolectric materials(PZT) as sensors and actuators. Cantilever plate is used as a specimen to test multi-modal vibration supression under random exitation. Impulse technique is applied to determine the natural frequency, the damping ratio(.zeta.) and the modal damping(2.zeta..omega.) of the first bending and the trosion modes. Two independent controllers are implemented to control the two modes simultaneously and established digitally on the basis of the direct negative velocity feedback control with collocated sensor/actuator. Experimental results for various fiber orientations and feedback gains are compared with finite element analysis considering stiffnesses and dampings of piezoeletiric sensors, actuators and bonding layer.

Negative emotion causes stress and lack of attention concentration. The classification of negative emotion is important to recognize risk factors. To classify emotion status, various methods such as questionnaires and interview are used and it could be changed by personal thinking. To solve the problem, we acquire multi modal bio-signals such as electrocardiogram (ECG), skin temperature (ST), galvanic skin response (GSR) and extract features. The neural network (NN), the deep neural network (DNN), and the deep belief network (DBN) is designed using the multi modal bio-signals to analyze emotion status. As a result, the DBN based on features extracted from ECG, ST and GSR shows the highest accuracy (93.8%). It is 5.7% higher than compared to the NN and 1.4% higher than compared to the DNN. It shows 12.2% higher accuracy than using only single bio-signal (GSR). The multi modal bio-signal acquisition and the deep learning classifier play an important role to classify emotion.

We propose an effective emotion recognition algorithm based on the minimum classification error (MCE) incorporating multi-modal system The emotion recognition is performed based on a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) based on MCE method employing on log-likelihood. In particular, the reposed technique is based on the fusion of feature vectors based on voice signal and galvanic skin response (GSR) from the body sensor. The experimental results indicate that performance of the proposal approach based on MCE incorporating the multi-modal system outperforms the conventional approach.

This study is constructed to investigate the sloshing effect on the motions of a two-dimensional rectangular cylinder experimentally and numerically. The modes of motion under consideration are sway and roll, and also experimental cases are divided by two categories; 1-DoF roll motion and 2-DoF motion (Coupling sway and roll). It is found that the sway response is considerably affected by the motion of the fluid, particularly near the sloshing natural frequency, while the roll response changes comparatively small. The dominant mode of motion is analyzed for 2-DoF experiments as well. The measured data for 1-DoF motions is compared with numerical results obtained by the Multi-modal approach. The numerical schemes vary in detail with the number of dominant sloshing modes; i.e. there is a single dominant mode for the Single-dominant method, while the Model 2 method assumes that the first two modes are superior. For the roll motion, numerical results obtained by the two different methods are relatively in good agreement with the experiments, and these two results are similar in most wave frequency range. However, the discrepancies are apparent where the fluid motion is not governed by a single mode. But both of numerical methods over-predict the motion at the vicinity of the sloshing natural frequency. In order to correct the discrepancy, the modal damping needs to be investigated more precisely. Furthermore, another multi-modal approach, such as the Boussinesq-type method, seems to be required in the region of the intermediate liquid.

'Multi modal 인터페이스'란 인간과 기계의 통신을 위해 음성, 키보드, 펜을 이용, 인터페이스를 하는 방법을 말한다. 최근 들어 많은 휴대용 단말기가 보급 되고, 단말기가 소형화, 지능화 되어가고, 단말기의 어플리케이션도 다양해짐에 따라 사용자가 보다 편리하고 쉽게 사용할 수 있는 입력 방법에 기대치가 높아가고 있다. 현재 휴대용 단말기에 가능한 입력장치는 단지 단말기의 버튼이나 터치 패드(PDA 경우)이다. 하지만 장애인의 경우 버튼이나 터치 패드를 사용하기 어렵고, 휴대용 단말기로 게임을 하는데 있어서도, 어려움이 많으며 새로운 게임이나 어플리케이션 개발에도 많은 장애요인이 되고 있다. 이런 문제점들은 극복하기 위하여, 본 논문에서는 휴대용 단말기의 새로운 Multi Modal 인터페이스를 제시 하였다. PDA(Personal Digital Assistants)를 이용하여 더 낳은 재미와 실감을 줄 수 있는 Multi Modal 인터페이스를 개발하였다. 센서를 이용하여 휴대용 단말기를 손목으로 제어를 가능하게 함으로서, 사용자에게 편리하고 색다른 입력 장치를 제공 하였다. 향후 음성 인식 기능이 추가 된다면, 인간과 인간 사이의 통신은 음성과 제스처를 이용하듯이 기계에서는 전통적으로 키보드 나 버튼을 사용하지 않고 인간처럼 음성과 제스처를 통해 통신할 수 있을 것이다. 또한 여기에 진동자를 이용하여 촉감을 부여함으로써, 그 동안 멀티 모달 인터페이스에 소외된 시각 장애인, 노약자들에게도 정보를 제공할 수 있다. 실제로 사람은 시각이나 청각보다 촉각에 훨씬 빠르게 반응한다. 이 시스템을 게임을 하는 사용자한테 적용한다면, 능동적으로 게임참여 함으로서 좀더 실감나는 재미를 제공할 수 있다. 특수한 상황에서는 은밀한 정보를 제공할 수 있으며, 앞으로 개발될 모바일 응용 서비스에 사용될 수 있다.
