Inclinometer sensors are widely applied in many fields. Especially in the field of construction of high-rise buildings also measure the horizontal and vertical help has been applied to monitor. Recent micro electro-mechanical system(MEMS) technology with the development of the many sensors have been developed. In this paper, a MEMS inclinometer is based on a MEMS accelerometer. The sensor can measure the angle of inclination using the relationship between static acceleration and gravity acceleration from an accelerometer. From this principle, inclinometer has been developed that has more accurate. The accuracy is proved by the experiment with laser displacement. Results in the experiment express high-accuracy, stability and economics of MEMS inclinometer. In conclusion, wireless MEMS inclinometer sensor is expected to be applicable in the areas of construction and many other industries with accurate and convenient monitoring system.

The large circular steel pipe for a marine bridge foundation has been developed as a construction method capable of performing the role of the working platform and cofferdam. The objective of this study is to demonstrate the wireless remote sensing system for monitoring the stability of the large circular steel pipe during construction and operation through field tests. The artificial seabed ground with an water level of 4 m is constructed for field tests. The large circular steel pipe with a diameter of 5 m and height of 9.5 m is installed into the ground by suction, and the embedded depth is 5 m. The inclinometer and strain gauges are installed on different surfaces of the upper module, and the tilt angle and stress are monitored throughout the entire construction process. As results, tilt angles are measured to be constant during the suction penetration. However, the tilt angle is larger in the x-axis direction. In addition, even when installed on different surfaces, the tilt angle in the same axial direction is measured to be almost the same. The stresses measured by strain gauges increase during suction penetration and decrease during pull-out. Based on measured stresses, it is found that the eccentricity is acting on the large circular steel pipe. This study shows that a wireless remote sensing system built with an inclinometer and strain gauge can be a useful tool for the stability monitoring of the large circular steel pipe.

In this study, a new method to estimate the bridge deflection is developed by using Wireless Tilt Sensor. Most of evaluations of structural integrity, it is very important to measure the geometric profile, which is a major factor representing the global behavior of civil structure, especially bridges. In the past, Because of the lack of appropriate methods to measure the deflection curve of bridges on site, the measurement of deflection had been done restrictly within just a few discrete points along the bridge. Also the measurement point could be limited to locations installed with displacement transducers. So, in this study, the deflection of the structure was measured by wireless tilt sensor instead of LVDT(Linear Variable Differential Transformer). Angle change of tilt sensor shows structural behavior by the change of the resistor values which is presented to voltage. Moreover, the maximum deflection was calculated by changing the deflection angle which was calculated as V(measured voltage) ${\times}$F(factor) to deflection. The experimental tests were carried out to verify the developed deflection estimation techniques. Because the base of tilt measuring is the gravity, uniform measurement is possible independent of a measuring point. Also, measuring values were showed very high accuracy.

레저선박 중 하나인 8톤급 낚시선박에 대한 설계에 앞서, 우수한 복원성을 가지기 위해서는 실해역에 가장 적합한 선형의 개발이 중요하다. 특히 선행되어야 할 것은 선박의 운동 중 횡요 운동이 선박의 안전성 및 승선감에 미치는 영향에 대한 평가라 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 모형선 시험 중 전통적으로 사용되는 경사시험, 자유 횡요 시험 및 GZ 곡선을 통하여 기존선형과 대상선형에 대한 횡요 감쇠효과 및 복원성 평가를 수행하였다. 그리고 선형개선에 따른 GM계산 및 횡요운동 주기와 복원성 조사를 통해 낚시선박의 안전성과 승객의 승선감에 대한 영향을 조사하였다. 특히 자유횡요시험 시, 비접촉식 6자유도 운동계측기(Rodym DMM)와 무선 경사계를 이용한 계측 두 가지 방법을 함께 수행함으로서 횡요감쇠효과에 대한 신뢰도를 높였고 그 결과 기존 선형보다 대상 선형에 의한 감쇠효과가 더 크게 나타남을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 개선된 대상선형의 GZ곡선을 이용하여 설계시 적합한 복원성을 조사하였으며 자유횡요시험을 통하여 횡요주기가 증가함으로서 대상선형의 승선감이 더욱 향상된 것으로 분석되었다.

In this study, the applicability and practicality of landslides monitoring by using wireless sensor network (WSN) was analysed. WSN system consists of a sensor node for collecting and transmitting data using IEEE 802.14e standard, a gateway for collecting data and transmitting the data to the monitoring server. In the topology of the sensor network, a highly flexible and reliable mesh type was adopted, and three testbeds were chosen in each location of Seoul metropolitan area. Soil moisture sensors, tensiometers, inclinometers, and a rain gauge were installed at each testbed and sensor node to monitor the landslide. For the estimation of the optimal network topology between sensor nodes, the susceptibility assessment of landslides, forest density and viewshed analysis of terrain were conducted. As a result, the network connection works quite well and measured value of the volumetric water content and matric suction simulates well the general trend of the soil water characteristic curve by the laboratory test. As such, it is noted that WSN system, which is the reliable technique, can be applied to the landslide monitoring.

과거 무분별하게 획일화되어 개발되었던 하천 개발 사업으로 인해 수질오염과 생태계 훼손으로 하천의 건천화 현상이 발생함에 따라 최근 하천복원 사업이 적극적으로 계획·추진되고 있다. 수생태계의 건강성과 종적 연속성을 회복하기 위한 하천복원사업에 앞서 하천환경의 현상태에 대한 평가는 매우 중요한 부분이다. 유럽과 미국에서는 드론을 활용하여 하천관리 및 재해 피해조사가 활발하게 이루어지고 있었다. 국내의 센서기술과 무선통신 기술의 발전으로 인해 실시간 수집 가능한 정보의 범위가 늘어남에 따라 국내 하천환경 분야에서는 드론을 활용하여 획득된 원격탐사(RS) 자료와 지리정보 데이터베이스를 접목한 하천 공간조사 연구가 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 본 연구에서는 2019년 국토부에서 제시한 하천환경 평가체계에 따라 국내 도시하천중 하천복원사업을 시행하였던 청미천 지역에 대해 현장 조사와 UAV 영상, 항공영상을 활용하여 하천환경평가 결과를 비교하고자 한다. 하천환경평가체계 지침서는 캐나다(2013) 온타리오 하천평가기법을 참조하였으며, 급경사/중경사/완경사로 구분되며 사전조사와 현장조사 야장으로 구성되나 본 연구에서는 물리 평가지표만을 대상으로 하였다. UAV를 이용하여 촬영한 영상을 PIX4D 프로그램을 활용하여 정합한 후 획득된 색체정보를 활용하여 하천환경평가를 실시하였으며, 항공영상은 국토지리정보원의 국토정보플랫폼 국토정보맵에서 다운받은 자료를 활용하였다.

Environmental monitoring systems are widely developed for analyzing environment and understanding an ecosystem according to the advance of wireless communication and various sensing techniques. To extract useful information, it requires high cost for processing a query, because these systems have to handle huge volume of raw sensor data which is transmitted from a wide area in environmental monitoring applications. Besides, it is also hard to answer an user defined query which requests to check current and near future condition. In this paper, we propose the monitoring system structure for processing a user defined query for environmental monitoring. It also describes the utilization of sensor data filtering and abstraction model. The designed abstraction model which is based on the slope grid in GIS supports fast data access and update. To analyze condition, the extracted data from abstraction model of each sensor type is combined in a query processor. It is useful to provide meaningful information to users.
