The UET(ultrasound excited thermography) for the ,eat-time diagnostics of the object employs an infrared camera to image defects of the surface and subsurface which are locally heated using high-frequency putted ultrasonic excitation. The dissipation of high-power ultrasonic energy around the feces of the defects causes an increase In temperature. The defect's image appears as a hot spot (bright IR source) within a dark background field. The UET for nondestructive diagnostic and evaluation is based on the image analysis of the hot spot as a local response to ultrasonic excited heat deposition. In this paper the applicability of VET for fast imaging of defect is described. The ultrasonic energy is injected into the sample through a transducer in the vertical and horizontal directions respectively. The voltage applied to the transducer is measured by digital oscilloscope, and the waveform are compared. Measurements were performed on four kinds of materials: SUS fatigue crack specimen(thickness 14mm), PCB plate(1.8 mm), CFRP plate(3 mm) and Inconel 600 plate (1 mm). A high power ultrasonic energy with pulse durations of 250ms Is injected into the samples in the horizontal and vertical directions respectively The obtained experimental result reveals that the dissipation loss of the ultrasonic energy In the vertical injection is less than that in the horizontal direction. In the cafe or PCB, CFRP, the size of hot spot in the vortical injection if larger than that in horizontal direction. Duration time of the hot spot in the vertical direction is three times as long as that in the horizontal direction. In the case of Inconel 600 plate and SUS sample, the hot spot in the horizontal injection was detected faster than that in the vertical direction

자동차 동력전달계통의 중요부분을 이루고 있는 치차장치는 고장의 영향도가 대단히 높은 장치일 뿐만 아니라 점검과 열화, 손상검지가 곤란한 장치이다. 지금까지, 치차진단기술의 연구는, 구미 에서는 성행하고 있음에도 불구하고, 국내에서는 그다지 되고있지 않다. 이와 같은 상황을 근거로 하여, 본 연구실에서는 치차진단기술의 연구개발에 착수하여, 그 첫 번째 단계로서, 현상의 기술 및 연구내용을 조사하였다. 그들중에서 중요하다고 생각되는 것을 여기에 소개한다. 치차장치의 내부에 이상이 생기면, 진동과 이음이 생기기도 하고 속도변동 등을 일으킨다. 또, 윤활유 중의 금속분이 증가하거나, 온도가 상승하기도 한다. 이와같은 이상의 정보를 포함하는 것을 징후 parameter라고 말한다. 이들 몇 개인가의 parameter중, 치차결함의 검출은, 진동과 음이 가장 좋은 parameter라고 생각되고 있다. 따라서 진단기술의 연구는, 거의 대개가 치차로부터 나오는 진동과 음의 발생기구와 신호처리에 관한 것이다. 전자로는 (1) 치차의 마모모델과 발생진동수 (2) 각종 결함고 발생진동수 후자로는 (3) 시간평균화처리 (4) Cepstrum (5) fluctuation 분석 등이 있다.

The purpose of this paper is to find an efficient heat source to amplify the surface temperature of damaged concrete structures for infrared thermography. we compare two different heat sources of far-infrared lamp and halogen lamp each other for their efficiency. The two heat sources were applied to the concrete specimens. Two different concrete specimens were used: one was the concrete containing internal void and the other was wrapped with partially unbonded fiber reinforced polymer sheet. it was found that the far-infrared lamp was more efficient than the halogen lamp. In addition, we propose a new algorithm to make the damage zone displayed clear in the image obtained from the thermographic operation. The algorithm is a combination of Gauss filtering process and the Prewitt mask operation.

Since rolling contact fatigue cracks can always occur on the rail surface, which is the contact surface between wheels and rails, railway rails require thorough inspection and diagnosis to thoroughly inspect the condition of the cracks and prevent breakage. Recent detailed guidelines on the performance evaluation of track facilities present the requirements for methods and procedures for track performance evaluation. However, diagnosing and grading rail surface damage mainly relies on external inspection (visual inspection), which inevitably relies on qualitative evaluation based on the subjective judgment of the inspector. Therefore, in this study, we conducted a deep learning model study for rail surface defect detection using Fast R-CNN. After building a dataset of rail surface defect images, the model was tested. The performance evaluation results of the deep learning model showed that mAP was 94.9%. Because Fast R-CNN has a high crack detection effect, it is believed that using this model can efficiently identify rail surface defects.

GIS와 같은 전력기기들은 내부에 다양한 원인에 따른 결함이 존재할 경우 운전시간이 경과함에 따라 이 결함에 의해 절연열화가 진전되는 것이 일반적인 현상이며, 결국 사고로 이어지게 된다. 따라서 절연열화과정에서 부분방전 현상에 의한 전자파 신호를 보다 효율적으로 검출할 수 있는 UHF 스트립형센서를 설계하였다. 또한, 설계된 절연진단용 스트립형 센서를 시뮬레이션을 통하여 GIS 및 고압용 전력기기에 적용 가능성을 확인한 연구이다. 차후 설계한 절연진단용 UWB-안테나을 제작하여 시뮬레이션 결과와 실제 측정값을 비교/분석 하고저 한다.

In this study, two types of mobile robotic systems using NDT (Non-destructive testing) method are developed for automatic diagnosis of the boiler tubes and large size pipelines. The developed mobile robots crawl the outer surface of the tubes or pipelines and detect in-pipe defects such as pinholes, cracks and thickness reduction by corrosion and/or erosion using EMAT (Electro-magnetic Acoustic Transducer). Automation of fault detection by means of mobile robotic systems for these large-scale structures helps to prevent significant troubles without danger of human beings under harmful environment.

The issues of preventive and condition-based maintenance, online monitoring, system fault detection, diagnosis and prognosis are of increasing importance. This study introduces a technique to detect and identify faults in induction motors. Stator currents were measured and stored by time domain. The time domain is not suitable for representing current signals, so wavelet transform is used to convert the signals onto frequency domain. The raw signals can not show the significant feature, therefore difference values between the signal of the health conditions and that of the fault conditions are applied. The difference values were transformed by wavelet transform and the features are extracted from the transformed signals. The dynamic time warping method was used to identify the fault type. This study describes the results of detecting fault using wavelet analysis.

In this paper, it is proposed the fault detection method of the ASIC, without the Test Requirement Document(TRD), extracting internal logic circuit and analyzed the function of the ASIC using the multipurpose development program and simulation. If there don't have the TRD, it is impossible to analyze the operation of the circuit and find out the fault detection in any chip. Therefore, we make the TRD based on the analyzed logic data of the ASIC, and diagnose of the ASIC circuit at the gate level through the signal control of I/O pins using the Dynamic Pattern signal. According to the experimental results of the proposed method, we is confirmed the good performance of the fault detection capabilities which applied to the non-memory circuit.

A significant amount of research has focused on the development of highly parallel architectures to obtain far more computational power than conventional computer systems. These architectures usually comprise of a large number of processors communicating through an interconnection network. The VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) and WSI (Wafer Scale Integration) cellular arrays form one important class of those parallel architectures, and consist of a large number of simple processing cells, all on a single chip or wafer, each interconnected only to its neighbors. This paper studies three fundamental issues in these arrays : fault-tolerant reconfiguration. functional reconfiguration, and their integration. The paper examines conventional techniques, and gives an in-depth discussion about fault-tolerant reconfiguration and functional reconfiguration, presenting testing control strategy, configuration control strategy, steps required f4r each reconfiguration, and other relevant topics. The issue of integrating fault tolerant reconfiguration and functional reconfiguration has been addressed only recently. To tackle that problem, the paper identifies the relation between fault tolerant reconfiguration and functional reconfiguration, and discusses appropriate testing and configuration control strategy for integrated reconfiguration on VLSI and WSI cellular arrays.

In this paper, in order to apply Prognostics and Health Management(PHM) to an electronic system or circuit, a circuit capable of detecting and predicting defect characteristics inside the system or circuit is implemented, and the results are described. In the previous study, we demonstrated that the frequency of the amplitude of S-parameter changed as the circuit defect progressed. These characteristics were measured by network analyser. but in this study, even if the same defect detection method is used, a circuit is proposed to check the progress of the defect, the remaining time, and the occurrence of the defect without large measurement devices. The circuit is designed to detect the change in impedance that generates changes of S-parameter, and it is verified through simulation using the measurement results of Bond-wires.
