Applying microwave, a velocity measurement system has been developed in order to measure the velocity of stream water surface. It's main purpose is the measurement for high velocity of flood water. It is under the developing stage of experimental measurement system. The microwave surface velocity meter uses Doppler effects of microwave. It consists of a radio frequency(RF) part and that of signal processing. Thr RF part has the function of microwave oscillation, reception of reflected wave, and determination of Doppler frequency, etc. Signal processing designates amplification, fast Fourier transform, etx. Various measuring experiments were performed at bridges and a spillway of Taechong re-regulation dam with the microwave velocity meter. Verification test was also made through water tank of ship model test at Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering. It shows 4% error inherent in A/D converter and additional several percentage errors from measurement circumstance. The measuring ranges are from 0.5 to 3.5 m/s. The result shows good linear relationship between carriage velocity and measured velocity, thus proves usefulness as a measuring instrument for flood water velocity. The instrument requires overall re-engineering procedure and number of data should be accumulated and analyzed to treat wind effects and random fluctuations of water surface.

In this study, the spray characteristics of a pressure swirl atomizer classified into a liquid sheet-type swirl nozzle for Urea-SCR system were investigated experimentally with the variation of injection pressure. The length to diameter ratio ($l_o/d$) of the nozzle was 3.1, and the swirler was set inside the nozzle tip to give injecting fluid angular momentum. The injection duration of the nozzle was controlled by PWM (pulse width modulation) modes. The development processes of the spray were imaged by a 2-D PIV system, and the change of spray angle was measured. The atomization characteristics, including axial velocity and SMD, were measured using a 2-D PDA system with the injection pressures at room temperature and ambient pressure conditions. As the experimental results, the injection pressure had a significant impact on the spray structure showing a different shape around the spray leading edge, and the smaller SMD was observed with increasing injection pressures, which was similar to that of the previous work.

This paper presents a Carrier phase fault detection (FD) method for GPS RTK (Global Positioning System Real Time Kinematic) in dynamic environment. There are various error sources in dynamic environment and these errors decrease the reliability of FD results. Due to the reason, Carrier phase measurements are separated into satellite induced signal, user induced signal and other remaining errors. Especially the user-induced signal is computed by user dynamic which is estimated by time-differenced Carrier phase (TDCP) and Doppler shift. TDCP makes it possible to avoid integer ambiguity resolution. Computer simulation is conducted to verify the suggested method. By applying impulse, step and ramp faults, the FD performance is analyzed.

개수로에서 혹은 수리구조물 주변에서의 흐름 및 난류 특성을 파악하기 위해서는 연직유속분포 및 수심별 평면유속분포의 측정이 필요하다. 유속분포를 측정하기 위한 방법은 음파 도플러 유속계(ADV:Acoustic Doppler Velocimetry)를 사용하는 방법과 PIV 기법을 이용하는 방법이 있다. 일반적으로 ADV는 한 지점의 유속을 시간변화에 따라 연속적으로 측정할 수 있어 난류특성의 정량적인 해석에 장점이 있으나 동시간에 여러 지점을 측정할 수 없기 때문에 난류의 공간적인 문제를 해석함에 있어서 한계가 있다. 그러나, 입자영상유속계(PIV:Particle Image Velocity)는 측정하고자 하는 단면에서 연직 횡단면의 유속분포 및 수심별 평면 유속분포 흐름장 측정이 가능하여 난류흐름의 공간적인 문제를 해석하는데 효과적일 뿐만 아니라 영상간의 시간간격을 짧게 하고, 촬영시간을 충분히 길게 한다면 개수로 내 난류특성 분석도 가능하다. 이에 본 연구의 목적은 PIV 기법을 이용하여 매끄러운 하상의 개수로에서 연직유속분포를 측정하고 그 특성을 정량적으로 분석하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 첫째, PIV 기법을 이용하여 측정한 연직유속분포와 3차원 전자식 유속계를 이용하여 측정한 연직유속분포를 비교 분석하였다. 둘째, 후류법칙에 의해 계산된 연직유속분포와 PIV 기법을 이용하여 측정한 연직유속분포의 비교를 위해 각각의 무차원 유속분포(지점 유속/지점 마찰속도)를 계산하고 비교하였다. 마지막으로 각 흐름 조건에 따라 수심의 변화를 주어 연직유속분포를 PIV 기법으로 측정한 후 개수로의 수심변화에 따른 연직유속의 특성을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, PIV 기법을 이용하여 측정한 연직유속 성분에 비해 3차원 전자식 유속계로 측정한 연직유속 성분이 작게 나타났고 바닥에서부터 0.2h 지점까지는 무차원 유속분포(지점 유속/지점 마찰속도)가 후류법칙과 잘 맞는 경향을 보였으나 0.2h 지점부터 수표면까지는 유속이 감소하는 현상이 나타났다.

When measuring the radiating noise of an underwater moving source, the range information between the acoustic source and the receiver is an important evaluation factor, and the measurement standards such as a receiver position, a moving source depth and a speed are set. Although there is a method of using the cross correlation as a method of finding the range of the underwater moving source, this method requires a time synchronization process. In this paper, we proposed the method to estimate the range by comparing the Doppler frequency difference of the theoretically calculated multipath signal with the Doppler frequency difference of the multipath signal estimated from the received signal. The proposed method does not require a separate time synchronization process. Simulations were performed to verify the performance, and the ranging error of the proposed method reduced by about 95 % than that of the conventional method.

The following results were obtained, after experimenting on change of masseter muscle and bloodstream epithelium with Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator(TENS), among 16 male adults. 1. According to applying TENS, it was observed that bloodstream in muscle increases at 1.5, 3.0 Hz. 2. According to applying TENS, it was observed that concentration of moving blood cells in muscle increase at 1.5, 3.0, 6.0 Hz. 3. According to applying TENS, it was observed that velocity of bloodstream in muscle increases only at 1.5 Hz 4. Through experiment, applying TENS at level of 6.0 and 10.0 Hz, all bloodstream, concentration of moving blood cells, and velocity of bloodstream increasing rates were lower in muscle compared to of them in overlying epithelium; and especially increasing bloodstream and its velocity were most frequent at 6.0 Hz, and bloodstream of 10.0 Hz. From the results above when a physical therapy of TENS is carried out the frequency of 1.5, 3.0 H is effective, and as the frequency increases it is disadvantageous to the muscle.

연안 및 해안공학의 발달과 더불어 부유식방파제의 기능적 효율성이 중요시 되고 있다. 흔히 사용되어오던 착저식방파제는 설치에 많은 시간과 경비가 소요되고 환경 및 생태계에 많은 변화를 줄 수 있으며, 설치 예정지의 수리학적 특성 등의 여건에 많은 제약을 받는 단점이 있다. 부유식방파제는 일본 등의 선진국을 중심으로 활용이 잦아지고 있는 방파제로서 수면 위에 설치되기 때문에 수중 생태계에 미치는 영향이 적은 친환경방파제이다. 또한 기존에 시공된 중력식방파제와는 달리 수심에 제한을 덜 받고, 공사기간이 짧기 때문에 경제적이다. 실제 시공사례로는 2007년 마산 원전항에 완공된 부유식방파제가 대표적이며, 지금까지도 부유식방파제에 대한 여러 연구자들의 관심이 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 방파제뿐만 아니라 우리나라처럼 국토의 면적이 작은 지역에서 증가하는 해상물동량을 소화하기 위해서 부유식방파제 등을 이용한 항만의 시공이 필요한 실정이다. 이러한 부유식방파제의 분석적인 측면에 있어서 수치해석은 파랑과 구조물의 상호작용을 해석하는 데 한계가 있으며, 부유식방파제 단면형상을 정확하게 재현할 수 없으므로, 수리모형실험을 통한 부유식방파제의 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다. 최근 기술의 발달로 인한 유동장 해명이 가능해 졌으며, PIV(Particle image velocimetry) 및 LDV시스템은 다양한 분야에서 응용되고 있다. 특히, LDV시스템은 측정하려는 한 지점에 대하여 레이저 빔을 단면(Cross-section)으로 만들고 입자의 산란광을 후방산란(Back scatter)으로 받아서 도플러 효과를 이용, 속도에 대한 주파수를 획득하며, 유속을 측정하는 장비로 매우 높은 정확도와 비접촉식 이라는 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한, PIV 시스템에 비하여 측정시간이 오래 걸리는 반면 데이터를 가공하지 않고 활용할 만큼 높은 정확성을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수리모형실험을 통하여 단독형, 2열형 및 3열형 부유식방파제의 형상, 흘수 및 거리를 변화시키며 유동장을 수집하였으며, 방파성능에 따른 와의 생성 및 소멸시점에서의 파랑변형과의 관계를 분석하였다. 방파제의 형상과 흘수를 달리하여 수리모형실험을 수행하였으며, 와류의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 또한, 연직 2차원 Navier-Stokes 방정식 모형을 이용하여 수치모형실험을 수행하였으며, 수치모형실험 결과와 수리모형실험 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 후방방파제에서 발생되는 파랑은 입사파의 주기가 길어질수록 상대적으로 커지는 현상을 보였으며, 흘수심이 깊어질수록 전방방파제 입사 면에서 자유 수면이 높게 관측되는 결과를 보였다. 또한, 비교적 장주기파랑에 해당하는 입사파랑의 경우 전달파고비 산정에 있어서 설계기준인 0.5를 대다수 초과하는 반면, 3열형 구조에서는 대부분이 0.5이하로 상당히 높은 방파성능 결과를 나타내었다.

Radar systems are used in remote sensing mainly as space-borne, airborne and ground-based Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), scatterometer and Doppler radar. Those systems are composed of expensive equipments and require expertise and professional skills for operation. Because of the limitation in getting experiences of the radar and SAR systems and its operations in ordinary universities and institutions, it is difficult to learn and exercise essential principles of radar hardware which are essential to understand and develop new application fields. To overcome those difficulties, in this paper, we present the construction and experiment of a low-cost educational radar system based on the blueprints of the MIT Cantenna system. The radar system was operated in three modes. Firstly, the velocity of moving cars was measured in Doppler radar mode. Secondly, the range of two moving targets were measured in radar mode with range resolution. Lastly, 2D images were constructed in GB-SAR mode to enhance the azimuth resolution. Additionally, we simulated the SAR raw data to compare Deramp-FFT and ${\omega}-k$ algorithms and to analyze the effect of antenna positional error for SAR focusing. We expect the system can be further developed into a light-weight SAR system onboard a unmanned aerial vehicle by improving the system with higher sampling frequency, I/Q acquisition, and more stable circuit design.

Scrotal involvement has been reported from 2% to 38% of males with Henoch-Sch$\ddot{o}$nlein purpura (HSP). It may present before the rash occurs or even long time after it has disappeared. Scrotal involvement of HSP usually results in pain, tenderness, swelling or discoloration of scrotum. Scrotal pain sometimes mimics testicular torsion to various degrees, which can be followed by unnecessary operation. In our 2 cases, one was a 5-year and 11-month-old boy who came to our emergency department due to scrotal pain before the diagnosis of HSP, and the other was a 5-year and 1-month-old boy who came to the outpatient clinic due to scrotal pain after the resolution of HSP about 1 month before the visit. We performed Doppler ultrasonography (USG) to evaluate the acute scrotal pain in the two boys. On Doppler USG, epididymis showed increased blood flow, and testis showed normal blood flow. These findings enabled the diagnosis of acute epididymitis and excluded testicular torsion. Epididymitis was improved by conservative management including shortterm steroid therapy within 5 days. It is important to perform adequate evaluation with tools such as Doppler USG in the early course of acute scrotum of HSP, to avoid unnecessary scrotal exploration.

This study develops a time-varying system-based noncontact fabric sensor that can measure cerebral blood-flow signals to explore the possibility of brain blood-signal detection and emotional evaluation. The textile sensor was implemented as a coil-type sensor by combining 30 silver threads of 40 deniers and then embroidering it with the computer machine. For the cerebral blood-flow measurement experiment, subjects were asked to attach a coil-type sensor to the carotid artery area, wear an electrocardiogram (ECG) electrode and a respiration (RSP) measurement belt. In addition, Doppler ultrasonography was performed using an ultrasonic diagnostic device to measure the speed of blood flow. The subject was asked to wear Meta Quest 2, measure the blood-flow change signal when viewing the manipulated image visual stimulus, and fill out an emotional-evaluation questionnaire. The measurement results show that the textile-sensor-measured signal also changes with a change in the blood-flow rate signal measured using the Doppler ultrasonography. These findings verify that the cerebral blood-flow signal can be measured using a coil-type textile sensor. In addition, the HRV extracted from ECG and PLL signals (textile sensor signals) are calculated and compared for emotional evaluation. The comparison results show that for the change in the ratio because of the activation of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems due to visual stimulation, the values calculated using the textile sensor and ECG signals tend to be similar. In conclusion, a the proposed time-varying system-based coil-type textile sensor can be used to study changes in the cerebral blood flow and monitor emotions.
