The optimum design of an SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) satellite constellation is developed herein using a genetic algorithm. The performance of Earth observations using a satellite constellation can be improved by minimizing the maximum revisit time. Classical orbit design using analytic methods has limitations when addressing orbit dynamics due to various disturbances. To overcome this issue, an optimization technique based on a genetic algorithm is used. STK (Systems Tool Kit) is utilized to propagate the satellite orbit when considering external disturbances, and the maximum revisit time on the earth observation area is calculated. By minimizing the performance index using a genetic algorithm, the optimum orbit of the satellite constellation is designed. Numerical results are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.

The outlet temperature of gas cooler has a great effect on the efficiency of carbon dioxide heat pump system. In order to obtain a small approach temperature difference at gas cooler, near-counter flow type heat exchanger has been proposed, and larger heat transfer area is demanded. The optimum design of gas cooler involving the analysis of trade-offs between heat transfer performance and cost is desirable. In this study, the effects of geometric parameters, such as the circuit arrangement, tube diameter, transverse tube spacing, longitudinal tube spacing and the number of tube rows and fin spacing on the performance of heat transfer were investigated using the developed model. This study suggested various simulation results for optimum designs of gas cooler.

In order to study the frost heaving characteristics of soil stabilitized with a quick lime, a cement and a briquette ash, frost heaving tests were performed with 2 kinds of soil sampled at Chonbuk-Do area. Frost heaving of no-stabilizing soil compacted with water content greater than optimum water content was increased as the frost period was increased but in case of samples with water content smaller than optimum water content, the frost period gave no affect about increase and decrease of the frost heaving. Both frost heaving of stabilizing and no-stabilizing soil with water content greater than optimum water content was decreased with the increase of the repetition number of freezing and thawing. There was no increase or decrease of frost heaving in the frost heaving test after 5 times of freezing and thawing.

Optimum cross-sectional shape of an automotive disc brake was developed based on FEM thermal analyses and the Taguchi method. Frictional heat flux and convection heat transfer coefficients were first calculated using equations and applied to the disc to calculate accurate temperature distribution and thermal deformations under realistic braking conditions. Maximum stress was generated in an area with highest temperature under pads and near the hat of ventilated disc and vanes. The SN ratio from Taguchi method and MINITAB was applied to obtain the optimum cross-sectional design of a disc brake on the basis of thermal deformations. The optimum cross-section of a disc can reduce thermal deformation by 15.2 % compared to the initial design.

This paper investigates the thermodynamic performance of latent heat thermal energy storage system using two phase change materials(2-PCM system). The thermodynamic merit of using 2-PCM is clear in terms of exergetic efficiency, which is substantially higher than that of 1-PCM system. Optimum phase change temperature to maximize the exergetic efficiency exists for each case. The heat transfer area ratio of high temperature storage unit, X, becomes another important parameter for 2-PCM system if the phase change temperatures of given materials are different from those of optimum conditions. It is a good approximation for X$_{opt}$ to be 0.5 when optimum phase change temperatures are used. Otherwise X$_{opt}$ is determined differently as a function of given phase change temperatures.res.

본 연구는 한반도에서 홀로세 동안 온난기후 최적기 등 기후변화와 함께 지표환경의 변화 시기와 양상을 알아보기 위한 것이다. 경기도 파주시 운정동의 곡간 퇴적물 (UJ-03, UJ-12 시추공)과 충청남도 태안군 소원면 의항리 (천리포 수목원)의 습지 퇴적물 (CL-4 시추공)을 대상으로 시추시료를 채취하였다. 파주시 운정동 지역에서는 약 7100-5000년 정도에 잔자갈과 왕모래 등 조립질 퇴적물이 퇴적되는 양상을 보이며, 약 5000-2200년 정도에는 이탄질 퇴적물이 쌓이고, 약 2200년 이후에는 간헐적으로 퇴적이 되고 토양화 작용을 받는 양상을 보인다. 천리포 수목원 지역에서는 약 7360-5000년 정도에 육성 호수가 발달하며, 약 5000-2600년 정도에는 호수 환경에서 유기물 퇴적이 점차 증가하는 양상을 보이고, 약 2600년 이후에는 이탄층이 두껍게 형성된다. 두 지역에서 지표환경의 변화 양상은 지역적, 지형적 요인에 따라 서로 다르게 나타나지만, 변화 시기는 거의 일치하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 지표환경의 변화에는 강수량 또는 유수의 세기 (에너지) 등 수문학적 요인이 주요하게 작용한 것으로 보인다. 또한 천리포 수목원 지역은 연안에 위치한 관계로 해수면 상승 높이에 따라 지형이 크게 변화하였을 것으로 생각할 수 있는데, 이에 대한 연구는 앞으로 더 진행되어야 할 것이다.

Quantitative understanding of a random error that is associated with Lagrangian particle dispersion modeling is a prerequisite for backward-in-time mode simulations. This study aims to quantify the random error of the WRF-FLEXPART model and suggest an optimum number of the Lagrangian particles for backward-in-time simulations over the Seoul metropolitan area. A series of backward-in-time simulations of the WRF-FLEXPART model has conducted at two receptor points by changing the number of Lagrangian particles and the relative error, as a quantitative indicator of random error, is analyzed to determine the optimum number of the release particles. The results show that in the Seoul metropolitan area a 1-day Lagrangian transport contributes 80~90% in residence time and ~100% in atmospheric enhancement of carbon monoxide. The relative errors in both the residence time and the atmospheric concentration enhancement are larger when the particles release in the daytime than in the nighttime, and in the inland area than in the coastal area. The sensitivity simulations reveal that the relative errors decrease with increasing the number of Lagrangian particles. The use of small number of Lagrangian particles caused significant random errors, which is attributed to the random number sampling process. For the particle number of 6000, the relative error in the atmospheric concentration enhancement is estimated as -6% ± 10% with reduction of computational time to 21% ± 7% on average. This study emphasizes the importance of quantitative analyses of the random errors in interpreting backward-in-time simulations of the WRF-FLEXPART model and in determining the number of Lagrangian particles as well.

바다숲 조성 해역에 대상 해조류의 최적 적지를 도출하기위해 서식지 평가 방법을 이용하였다. 서식지 평가 방법은 HEP(Habitat Evaluation Procedure)를 이용하여 대상 해조류가 서식하기에 적합한지를 고려하여 수행하였다. 그 결과 바다숲 조성 해역에서 바다숲을 시설하기에 최적으로 예측되는 곳을 계량적으로 선정할 수 있었으며, 적지 선정에는 수심의 변화에 따른 인자인 광조건과 파랑의 변화 여부가 적지의 공간적 변동에 가장 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 선정된 적지의 총 면적은 18ha로 분석되었으며, 서식 적합 지수(Habitat Suitability Index, HSI)에 의해 분석된 서식지의 질을 계량화한 결과 0.55~0.907(최고치는 1.0) 사이의 범위를 보였고, 선정된 적지가 등 수심선 방향을 따라 분포하고 있기 때문에 바다숲 조성지에 기반 시설인 해중림초를 투하할 때, 수심에 수평 방향의 띠 형태로 시설하는 것이 가장 바람직할 것으로 판단된다.

본 논문에서는 얼굴영상에서 눈과 아이라인을 추출하는 방법을 제안한다. 기존의 논문은 눈동자의 위치를 추출하는 것이 대부분이나, 본 논문에서는 눈의 위치뿐만 아니라 아이라인까지 추출함으로써 얼굴 응용분야에 다양하게 적용될 수 있다. 입력영상은 스마트폰 카메라로 정면을 찍은 얼굴 사진을 실험 자료로 하였으며, 기본적으로 영상은 1명의 얼굴로 제한하며, 배경은 어느 곳에서나 찍을 수 있고, 조명의 상태는 일정하지 않으며, 인종에 관한 제약은 없다. 제안하는 방법은 입력영상에서 Harr 분류기를 이용하여 얼굴후보영역 추출하고 얼굴 후보영역에서 눈의 위치 후보영역을 설정하였다. 눈의 후보영역에서 팽창연산을 이용하여 값이 큰 부분을 추출하고, 이 영상을 지역적인 이진화를 하여 눈과 눈썹을 분리하는 방법을 제안하였다. 그 후 Hsu가 제안한 EyemapC를 이용한 영상을 이진화하여 눈이 있는 부분과 눈이 없는 부분을 분리한 후, 그 눈의 윤곽선을 추출하고 최적타원 추정을 이용하여 아이라인을 검출하였다.

To achieve the lightweight and robust design of a structure, it is requested to design a structure and its control system simultaneously, which is called as the combined optimal design. A constant-cross-sectional area cantilever beam was chosen as an example for the applying the optimum design method. An initial load and a time varying disturbance were applied at the free end of the beam. Sliding mode control was selected due to its insensitiveness to the disturbance compared with other modes. It is known that the sliding mode control is robust to the disturbance and the uncertainty only if a matching condition is met, after giving a switching hyper plane. In this study, the optimum method was used for the design of the switching hyper plane and the objective function of the optimum switching hyper plane was assumed to be the objective one of the control system. The total weight of the structure was treated as a constraint and the cross sectional areas of the beam were considered as design variables, which means a nonlinear programming problem. The sequential linear programming method was applied to solve it. As a result of the optimum design, the effect of attenuating vibrations has been improved obviously. Moreover, lightweight design of the structure became possible from the relationship of the weight of the structure and the control objective function.
