In this paper, a new speech enhancement method using level adapted wavelet packet is presented. First, we propose a level adapted wavelet packet to alleviate a drawback of the conventional node adapted one in noisy environment. Next, we suggest an adaptive noise estimation method at each node on level adapted wavelet packet tree. Then, for more accurate noise component subtraction, we propose a new estimation method of spectral subtraction weight. Finally, we present a modified spectral subtraction method. The proposed method is evaluated on various noise conditions: speech babble noise, F-l6 cockpit noise, factory noise, pink noise, and Volvo car interior noise. For an objective evaluation, the SNR test was performed. Also, spectrogram test and a very simple listening test as a subjective evaluation were performed.

In this study the bearing capacity of the eccentrically loaded shallow footing is estimated by means of the upper bound method of limit analysis. In the case of applying the upper bound, the results depend on the failure mechanism. So the failure surface is correctly studied through the model test using sand. New method is proposed to estimate the bearing capacity of the eccentrically loaded shallow footing by means of the upper bound method to apply the failure mechanism based on the model test. The propriety of new method is verified by the results of various methods. And the influences of the variables eccentricity, embedment depth, variations of contact width factor by model test using sand are also studied in this paper

This paper proposes a built-in self-test tchnique for CMOS circuits. To detect a stuck-open fault in CMOS circuits, two consequent test patterns is required. The ordered pairs of test patterns for stuck-open faults are generated by feedback shift registers of extended length. A nonlinear feedback shift register is designed by the merging method and reordering algorithms of test patterns proposed in this paper. And a new multifunctional BILBO (Built-In Logic Block Observer) is designed to perform both test pattern generation and signature analysis efficiently.

Although the hole expansion test is currently the most commonly used method to evaluate the stretch flangeability of HSS, it has been criticized due to its poor repeatability and reproducibility for test results. This paper focuses on the development of a new measurement method to investigate the stretch flangeability of HSS. Two materials (DP590, DP980) were investigated with a hole expansion test and a developed test method. Test results showed that the developed test method could be used as one stretch flangeability test to help identify relevant parameters of the shearing process to avoid edge cracking.

Purpose: Recently, the government of China has established new safety regulations for towing devices. The new Chinese regulation has more unfavorable conditions than the conditions of other countries. So the various measures have been reviewed to satisfy this regulation. Methods: The regulation conditions were compared through analysis of strain energy, and a method for improving the accuracy of analysis is suggested. In addition, the test method considering the tolerance is presented through tolerance analysis. This paper also explained importance of confirming the quality of products through a case of poor quality of Chinese products such as poor heat treatment. Result: We could know how strong Chinese regulations are stronger than other national laws and investigated which member receives a lot of strain energy. In order to cope with these Chinese regulations, we suggested improvement of analysis accuracy, test method through tolerance analysis, and heat treatment quality. Conclusion: This paper contributed to general counterplan of the strengthened new Chinese regulations for towing device.

The classical two dimensional modulus of rupture test was generalized to three dimensions. Using this new method, the biaxial tensile strength can be measured with only one actuator. A circular plate is used in this method unlike a prismatic beam in the classical modulus of rupture test. The stress field in this specimen is isotropic and uniform in a plane paralle1 to the bottom surface of the specimen. The relation between the applied load and the maximum stress is derived analytical1y using Timoshenko's solution. A set of experimental data is presented.

Due to the serial nature of scan chains, the use of the boundary scan chain leads the high application costs. And with 3-state net, it is important to avoid enabling the two drivers in a net. In this paper, the new test method for 3-state nets in the multiple boundary scan chains is presented. This method configures the boundary scan cells as multiple scan chains and the test application time can be reduced. Also three efficient algorithms are proposed for testing the interconnects in a board without the collision of the test data in 3-state nets.

As huge energy transfer systems like a nuclear power plant, steam power plant and petrochemical plant are operated for a long time, mechanical properties are changed by degradation. The life time of the systems can be affected by the mechanical properties. BI(Ball Indentation) test has a potential to replace conventional fracture tests like a uniaxial tensile test, fracture toughness test, hardness test and so on. In this paper, we would like to present the ageing evaluation technique by the BI method. The four classes of the thermally aged 1Cr-!mo-0.25V specimens were prepared using an artificially accelerated aging method. Tensile tests, fracture toughness tests, hardness tests and BI tests were performed. The results of the BI tests were in good agreement with fracture characteristics by a standard fracture test method within 5%. The IDE(Indentation Deformation Energy) of a BI technique as a new parameter for evaluating a degradation was suggested and the new IDE parameter clearly depicts the degradation degree.

This study aims to develop a potential evaluation method for urban spatial expansion using remote sensing (RS) and geographic information system (GIS). A multi-criteria evaluation method with several criteria and their weighting values was introduced to evaluate the score and quantification of the potential surface around the existing cities. The six criteria with one geographic factor, slope, and five accessibility factors, time distance from center of the city, national road, interchange of expressway, a big city, and station, were defined for the potential. RS techniques were applied for classification of the actual urban expansion maps between two periods, and GIS functions were used for score of accessibility criteria with a distance decay function from geographic, road and several point maps, which was developed in this study. The new methodology was applied to a test area, Suwon, between 1986 and 1996. In order to optimize the six weighting values, this study made new findings to search the optimal combination of the weighting values from new methodology, weighted scenario method for intensity order (WSM), combined with intensity order and AHP method, including a trial and error method for sensitivity analysis to make the intensity order. The optimal combination of the weighting values by the new method generated the optimal potential surface, considering spatial trend of urban expansion in the test area.
