설득 테크놀로지(persuasive technology)란 컴퓨터화된 다양한 시스템을 이용하여 사용자의 행동 양식과 태도를 변화시키는 상호작용 기술을 의미한다. 설득 테크놀로지는 사람들의 태도나 행동을 변화시키기 위해 미리 어떠한 의도를 가지고 설계된다. 즉 어떠한 목적을 가진 설득 테크놀로지냐에 따라서 설득의 전략이 달라지는 것이다. 설득에 영향을 주는 수많은 요인들 중에서 어떤 것을 적절히 활용하느냐가 설득 전략의 기초가 된다. 설득 테크놀로지는 광고, 교육, 안전 등 여러 분야에서 사용이 되고 있다, 그 중에서도 최근 주목 받고 있는 식생활 및 다이어트에 관한 셀프 모니터링(self-monitoring) 설득 테크놀로지를 설계할 때 어떠한 설득 전략을 세워야 하는지 연구해 보았다. 다이어트를 위한 식생활 변화를 위해서는 사람들의 자발적인 행동과 태도 변화를 이끌어 내는 것을 목적으로 해야 하기 때문에 구체적인 사용자 동기 유발 전략을 필요로 한다. 인간의 동기 유발을 위한 설득 전략으로 동료 압력(peer-pressure), 정보원의 공신력(information source public trust), 피드백(feedback) 방법을 다이어트 설득 테크놀로지에 적용 시켜 어느 정도 효과가 있는지 살펴보았다. 이 연구는 이러한 요인들을 적용한 다이어트에 대한 동기유발 실험을 통해 각 요인들간의 설득의 정도를 비교 분석하는데 목적이 있다. 이 연구의 결과는 다이어트, 금연 등의 생활패턴의 개선 이외에도 의료, 교육, 환경 등 다양한 분야에서 사용자가 스스로를 좋은 방향으로 나아가게 동기화 시키는 컴퓨터화 된 기술을 개발하는 토대가 될 수 있을 것이다.

Eco driving is a strategy to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions from motor vehicle. However, it has not received much attention until recently. Psychological studies on this issue have been limited and the majority of existing studies have primarily been based on engineering and educational approaches. This study examined the effects of a self-management technique on two driving behaviors: speeding and putting the gears in neutral while waiting at the signal. The self-management technique consisted of three behavior interventions: goal-setting, self-monitoring, and reward. Three drivers participated in this study. An AB multiple baseline design across participants was adopted. Results showed that the self-management technique was effective in increasing both driving behaviors. Implications of the present findings and suggestions for future research were discussed.

This paper reports a novel structural health monitoring (SHM) technique for detecting de-bonding between a concrete beam and CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer) sheet that is attached to the concrete surface. To achieve this, a multi-scale actuated sensing system with a self-sensing circuit using piezoelectric active sensors is applied to the CFRP laminated concrete beam structure. In this self-sensing based multi-scale actuated sensing, one scale provides a wide frequency-band structural response from the self-sensed impedance measurements and the other scale provides a specific frequency-induced structural wavelet response from the self-sensed guided wave measurement. To quantify the de-bonding levels, the supervised learning-based statistical pattern recognition was implemented by composing a two-dimensional (2D) plane using the damage indices extracted from the impedance and guided wave features.

본 논문은 콘크리트의 양생 강도 발현을 모니터링하기 위하여 매립형 압전 센서를 이용하여 콘크리트 내부의 임피던스 및 유도초음파 신호를 측정함으로써, 콘크리트의 양생 강도를 실시간 추정할 수 있는 기법을 개발하였다. 임피던스 및 유도초음파 신호는 구조물의 물성을 나타내며 특히 양생 기간 중 임피던스 및 유도초음파의 변화는 해당 콘크리트 구조물의 강도변화를 나타낼 수 있다. 이를 이용하여 매립형 압전 센서로부터 저비용의 셀프 센싱 기반 임피던스 및 유도초음파를 계측하여 콘크리트의 임피던스 공진 주파수 및 유도초음파의 전달 강도를 측정하고 측정된 신호를 통하여 콘크리트 양생 강도를 추정할 수 있게 된다. 제안된 기법의 적용가능성을 검증하기 위하여 설계 압축강도 30MPa의 콘크리트 슬라브 내부에 매립형 압전 센서를 매립하고 양생기간 동안 임피던스 및 유도초음파 신호를 측정, 비교 분석 하였다. 측정된 신호 및 압축강도를 통하여 임피던스 및 유도초음파 기반 강도 추정 모델을 도출하고 보다 높은 정확도를 얻기 위해 다중스케일 강도 추정 모델을 개발하였다. 결과적으로 본 연구를 통해 매립형 압전 센서를 이용하여 콘크리트의 양생 강도를 실시간 모니터링할 수 있음이 검증되었다.

In this study, a piezoelectric smart sensor that can be embedded inside of concrete structures is developed to investigate the early stage of concrete curing. A waterproof coating is used to protect the piezoelectric sensor from moistures of concrete mixture. Also, a mortar case is utilized to encapsulate the sensor to protect it from impact loads. To estimate the strength of concrete, a self-sense guided-wave actuated sensing technique is applied. In the guided wave, its velocity is varied according to the mechanical properties of concrete such as modulus of elasticity. Because modulus of elasticity directly affects the strength of concrete, the guidedwave's velocity also affects the concrete strength development. To verify the feasibility of using the proposed approach, the smart sensor was embedded into a 100MPa concrete cylinder and the self-sense guided wave is continuously measured throughout the curing process. The measurements showed that the propagation time (TOF) of the measured guided waves gradually decreased as the curing age increased. Especially, at the early age of the curing process, the variation of the TOF was very significant. Furthermore, the results showed that there is a linear relationship between the TOF of the self-sense guided waves and the strength of concrete existed. It is safe to conclude that the proposed approach can be used very effectively in monitoring of the strength development of high strength concrete structures.

Traditional business intelligence (BI) systems have been used widely as tools for better decision-making on time. On the other hand, building a data warehouse (DW) for the efficient analysis of rapidly growing data is time-consuming and complex. In particular, the ETL (Extract, Transform, and Load) process required to build a data warehouse has become much more complex as the BI platform moves to a cloud environment. Various BI solutions based on the NoSQL database, such as MongoDB, have been proposed to overcome these ETL issues. Decision-makers want easy access to data without the help of IT departments or BI experts. Recently, self-service BI (SSBI) has emerged as a way to solve these BI issues. This paper proposes a self-service BI system with farming data using the MongoDB cloud as DW to support the selection of new crops by return-farmers. The proposed system includes functions to provide insights to decision-makers, including data visualization using MongoDB charts, reporting for advanced data search, and monitoring for real-time data analysis. Decision makers can access data directly in various ways and can analyze data in a self-service method using the functions of the proposed system.

Recently, interest in monitoring health and sports is growing because of the emphasis on wellness, which is accelerating the development and commercialization of smart clothing for biosignal monitoring. In addition to exerciseeffect monitoring clothing that tracks heart rate and respiration, recently developed clothing makes it possible to monitor muscle balance using electromyogram (EMG). The electrode for EMG have to attached to an accurate location in order to obtain high-quality signals in surface EMG measurement. Therefore, this study develops monitoring clothing suitable for different types of human bodies and aims to extract suitable range of EMG according to movements in order to develop self-fitness monitoring clothing based on EMG measurement. This study identified and attached electrodes on six upper muscles and two lower muscles of ten males in their 20s. After selecting six main motions that create a load on muscles, the 8-ch wireless EMG system was used to measure amplitude value, noise, SNR and SNR (dB) in each part and statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 20.0. As a result, the suitable range for EMG measurement to apply to clothing was identified as four parts in musculus pectoralis major; three parts in muscle rectus abdominis, two parts each in shoulder muscles, backbone erector, biceps brachii, triceps brachii, and musculus biceps femoris; and four part in quadriceps muscle of thigh. This was depicted diagrammatically on clothing, and the EMG-monitoring sensing locations were presented for development of self-fitness monitoring.
