초음파를 이용한 측정은 하천의 반대편에 흐름방향에 경사지게 초음파를 발사하여 다시 반사되어 오는 시간차를 기록함으로써 주어진 길이에서 유속을 연속적으로 측정하는 것이다. 하류로 내려가는 음파는 음향 측선(acoustic path)과 평행한 유속 성분 때문에 상류로 올라가는 음파보다 빠른 속도를 가진다. 탄천 및 괴산댐에 초음파 유량 측정시스템을 시험 설치하고 운영 결과를 검토하였다. 시험적용결과 연속적인 유량자료 획득이 가능하였으며, 기존 유속면적법 대비 $4.21\%$의 상대오차를 지니고 있어 기존 방법과 비교적 일치하는 측정결과를 나타냈다. 또한 지표유속(Index Velocity)를 활용한 단일회선 유량산정법을 검토한 결과, 다회선에 의해 운영한 결과와 평균 $2.9\%$의 상대오차를 지니고 있었다. 이 방법은 조석구간 및 배수영향을 받는 구간에서 작은 비용으로 연속유량자료를 획득할 수 있는 방법으로 판단된다. 시험적용 결과 개선해야 할 사항으로는 안정적인 자료 획득을 위한 초음파 변환기의 개선, 자료의 필터링 기술의 정밀화, 그리고 유량산정 방법에서 정확도 향상 기술 개발 등이 도출되었다. 초음파 유량 측정시스템은 자료의 연속성을 확보할 수 있는 점에서 매우 중요한 의미를 지니고 있다. 지금까지의 연속 유량 산출법은 연속적인 수위를 측정하고 각 수위에 따른 유량 측정 후 수위-유량관계를 통하여 연속적인 유량을 산출하였다. 그러나 초음파 유량 측정 시스템은 직접 유속과 수위를 측정하여 연속유량이 산출되기 때문에 연속유량 산출에 비교적 간편하다고 할 수 있다. 또한 정확도 면에서 기존 유량 측정법인 유속-면적법의 불확실도 $5\%\~10\%$에 비교하여 $5\%$ 내외의 정확도 수준을 지니고 있어 정확도 향상을 기대할 수 있다. 경제적인 측면에서도 매년 측정사업에 소요되는 비용과 비교하였을 때 장기적으로는 경제적인 방법이 될 수 있다.

저수지 수질모형의 기초자료로서의 수체의 수리학적 인자는 물리적인 자료이므로 많은 실측 자료를 필요로 한다. 이러한 자료의 취득을 위하여 수체의 수심을 측정하고, 대상구역의 수계특성을 잘 반영할 수 있도록 수체를 분할하여 각 구간별 수체 중심, 특성길이, 연직 및 수평 단면적, 수표면적, 수체적, 수로경사 등을 구하여 사용한다. 이러한 자료의 취득은 여러 가지 어려움으로 인하여 조사지점이 조밀하지 못하거나 계간방법이 개발되지 못하는 등의 이유로 인하여 실제값과 상당한 차이를 나타내기도 하므로 이를 개선할 수 있는 방법을 제시하고자 한다. 최근에 개발된 다중 음향탐사기 (MBES)는 초음파를 발사하여 하상에서 반사한 파의 시간을 측정하고 거리로 환산하여 수심을 측정하는 것으로 여러 지점의 수심을 동시에 스캔할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 또한 MBES는 수신기의 지향각이 존재하므로 파의 반사지점을 정확하게 파악할 수 있다. 단일 음향측심기는 측선을 따라 수심을 측정하므로 조사간격이 넓어 정확한 수로정보를 얻기에는 미흡한 점이 있으나 MBES는 수체 전체를 $1\times1m$ 당 $4\~5$ 번의 측정하고, 변화가 심한 호저면에서도 수심오차 $5\~8 cm$의 고분해능을 갖는다. 이를 이용하면 하상의 수심에 내한 3차원의 연속분포를 생성하고, 하상의 지형적인 특징을 조사${\cdot}$ 분석할 수 있으며 하상의 성상과정에 관한 기초자료로도 활용한 수 있다. 수체정보를 산정할 때 단일 음향측심법은 간접적으로 자료를 취득하므로 주관적인 견해 및 큰 오차를 내포하고 있으나, MBES는 Hypack Max를 이용하여 구획한 구간에 따른 수표면적과 연직단면적 및 수체적을 자동으로 계산한다. 그리고 측정한 자료의 raw data를 이용하면 각 구간에 대한 무게중심을 구하여 중점으로 사용 가능하고, 종방향의 구축을 산정하여 수로의 깊이 및 중심간 길이를 정확하게 계산할 수 있다.

In this paper, performance analysis of machine vision techniques is presented to improve the convenience and speed of automatic inspection in the industrial field when machine vision is applied to the image not taken in the stationary state, but in the moving state on a conveyer. When the length of cylindrical rods used for automobiles was measured using the edge detection method, the conveying speed increased, and the uncertainty of the boundary between the background and the part image increased, which resulted in a shorter image of the object taken. This paper proposes a linear compensation method to predict the biased errors of the length measurements after examining the pattern of biased and random errors, respectively, with 6 different types of specimens and 7 velocity stages. The length measurement corrected by the linear compensation method had the same accuracy as the stationary state within the speed range of 30 cm/s and could enhance the application capability in automatic inspections.

Purpose : The number of the repatriated Korean students who had overseas study at early ages is increasing. They received foreign education, they can speak international languages, but they have many difficulties in articulation and intonation of the Korean language. This study aims to measure closure and aspiration duration, length of consonants, length of subsequent vowels, and ratio of consonants against subsequent vowels in vowel-consonant-vowel (VCV) syllables. Methods : This study compares the acoustic and phonetic characteristics of repatriated and native students, the ratio of articulation error of Korean plosives, the closure and aspiration duration, and the ratio of the aspiration duration against the closure duration. Results : The ratio of articulation error of Korean plosives between repatriated and native students is 19% and 2%, respectively. The closure duration was significantly longer in repatriated students than in native students. The aspiration duration was significantly longer in repatriated students than in native students. No difference was found in the ratio of aspiration duration against closure duration between the native and repatriated students. Conclusion : This study can be a good reference for estimating the phonetic difficulties of Korean elementary students who had overseas study at early ages.

Ultrasonic techniques have the advantage of determining the burning rates with wide range of pressure in only a single test. However, ultrasonic techniques have a drawback, which is that they are using high frequency transducers and it is easily affected by noise. Therefore, ultrasonic measurement method needs noise reduction algorithm to improve or grantee accuracy of burning rate measurements of solid propellants using ultrasound. Thus, in the present study, we propose a noise reduction method of measured ultrasonic signals by applying wavelet shrinkage.

A recursive geometric adaptive control method to compensate for machining straightness error in the finished surface due to tool deflection and guideway error generated by end milling process is developed. The relationship between the tool deflection and the feedrate is modeled by a modified Taylor's tool life equation. Without a priori knowledge on the variations off cutting parameters, time varying parameters are then estimated by an exponentially windowed recursive least squares method with only post-process measurements of the straightness error. The location error is controlled by shifting the milling bed in the direction perpendicular to the finished surface and adding a certain amount of feedrate with respect to the tool deflection model before cutting. The waviness error is compensated by adjusting the feedrate during machining. Experimental results show that location error is controlled within a range of fixturing error of the bed on the guideway and that about 60% reduction in the waviness error can be achieved within a few steps of parameter adaption under wide operating ranges of cutting conditions even if the parameters do not converge to fixed values.

Finger printing and sequence alignment are well-known approaches for document similarity comparison. A fingerprinting method is simple and fast, but it can not find particular similar regions. A string alignment method is used for identifying regions of similarity by arranging the sequences of a string. It has an advantage of finding particular similar regions, but it also has a disadvantage of taking more computing time. The Multi-Level Alignment (MLA) is a new method designed for taking the advantages of both methods. The MLA divides input documents into uniform length blocks, and then extracts fingerprints from each block and calculates similarity of block pairs by comparing the fingerprints. A similarity table is created in this process. Finally, sequence alignment is used for specifying longest similar regions in the similarity table. The MLA allows users to change block's size to control proportion of the fingerprint algorithm and the sequence alignment. As a document is divided into several blocks, similar regions are also fragmented into two or more blocks. To solve this fragmentation problem, we proposed a united block method. Experimentally, we show that computing document's similarity with the united block is more accurate than the original MLA method, with minor time loss.

The low frequency noise below 200 Hz, including inaudible infra-sound, is known to affect human physiology ; circulation, respiration, nerve, endocrine, etc. Legislation has been introduced in several countries regarding evaluation guideline and measurement method of low frequency noise. In this work, low frequency characteristics of the Seoul subway transportation system was investigated in terms of the noise level and spectrum in the interior of running passenger car and the subway station. The interior sound pressure level of the passenger car was between 60 and 105 dB in the frequency range of $1{\sim}200\;Hz$ and varied with car speed. The marked sound pressure level peak at 8 Hz, infra-sound, observed for the most of Lines is shown to correspond to the resonance frequency of passenger car. The level of station platform noise was lower than the interior noise of running car because of the lower speed at arriving/departure. The results indicated that the interior noise level of running passenger car was inside the oppressive feeling region, proposed by Ochiai, in the frequency range of $20{\sim}80\;Hz$ which makes a little concern.

Slug tests are the most widely used field method for quantification of hydraulic conductivity of porous media. Well recovery is affected by well casing, borehole radii, screened length, hydraulic conductivity, and specific storage of porous media. In this study, a new slug tests model was developed through finite element approximation and the validity and usefulness of the model were tested in various ways. Water level fluctuation in a well under slug test and cons-equent groundwater flow in the surrounding porous medium were appropriately coupled through estimation of well-flux using an iteration technique. Numerical accuracy of the model was verified using the Cooper et al. (1967) solution. The model has advantages in simulations for monitored slug tests, partial penetration, and inclusion of storage factor. Volume coverage of slug tests is significantly affected by storage factor. Magnitude and speed of propagation of head changes from a well increases as storage factor becomes low. It will be beneficial to use type curves of monitored head transients in the surrounding porous formation for estimation of specific storage. As the vertical component of groundwater flow is enhanced, the influence of storage factor on well recovery decreases. For a radial-vertical flow around a partially penetrated well, deviations between hydraulic estimates by various methods and data selection of recovery curve are negligible on practical purposes, whereas the deviations are somewhat significant for a radial flow.
