There are many research results about a self-localization technique of mobile robot. In this paper we present a self-localization technique based on the features of ceiling vision using a fisheye lens. The features obtained by SIFT(Scale Invariant Feature Transform) can be used to be matched between the previous image and the current image and then its optimal function is derived. The fisheye lens causes some distortion on its images naturally. So it must be calibrated by some algorithm. We here propose some methods for calibration of distorted images and design of a geometric fitness model. The proposed method is applied to laboratory and aile environment. We show its feasibility at some indoor environment.

In this paper, a feasibility on a ground-penetrating radar for detecting subsurface cavities near buried pipes has been investigated. The experimental setup was implemented by employing an impulse ground-penetrating radar system, a xy Cartesian coordinate robot, an underground material filled tank, a metal pipe and a simulated cavity model. In particular, the simulated cavity model was constructed by packing Styrofoam chips and balls, which have both similar electrical properties to an air-filled cavity and a solid shape. Through typical three experiments, B-scan data of the radar have been acquired and displayed as 2-D gray-scale images. According to the comparison of B-scan images, we show that the subsurface cavities near the buried pipes can be detected by using the radar survey.

This study carried out finite element vibration analysis of pole structures made of GFRP, which is based on the micro-mechanical approach for different fiber-volume fractions. The finite element (FE) models for composite structures using multi-scale approaches described in this paper is attractive not only because it shows excellent accuracy in analysis but also it shows the effect of the material combination. The FE model is used for studying free vibrations of laminated composite poles for various fiber-volume fractions. In particular, new results reported in this paper are focused on the significant effects of the fiber-volume fraction for various parameters, such as fiber angles, layup sequences, and length-thickness ratios. It may be concluded from this study that the combination effect of fiber and matrix, largely governing the dynamic characteristics of composite structures, should not be neglected and thus the optimal combination could be used to design such civil structures for better dynamic performance.

We performed two-dimensional (20) computer-based modeling and simulation of FinFET by solving the coupled Poisson-Schrodinger equations quantum-mechanically in a self-consistent manner. The simulation results are carefully investigated for FinFET with gate length(Lg) varying from 10 to 80nm and with a Si-fin thickness($T_{fin}$) varying from 10 to 40nm. Current-voltage (I-V) characteristics are compared with the experimental data. Device optimization has been performed in order to suppress the short-channel effects (SCEs) including the sub-threshold swing, threshold voltage roll-off, drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL). The quantum-mechanical simulation is compared with the classical appmach in order to understand the influence of the electron confinement effect. Simulation results indicated that the FinFET is a promising structure to suppress the SCEs and the quantum-mechanical simulation is essential for applying nano-scale device structure.

This paper describes the short-channel effect(SCE), corner effect of nano-scale MuGFETs(Multiple-Gate FETs) by three-dimensional simulation. We can extract the equivalent gate number of MuGFETs(Double-gate=2, Tri-gate=3, Pi-gate=3.14, Omega-gate=3.4, GAA=4) by threshold voltage model. Using the extracted gate number(n) we can calculate the natural length for each gate devices. We established a scaling theory for MuGFETs, which gives a optimization to avoid short channel effects for the device structure(silicon thickness, gate oxide thickness). It is observed that the comer effects decrease with the reduction of doping concentration and gate oxide thickness when the radius of curvature is larger than 17 % of the channel width.

Due to the regular usage of face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic, many people developed skin issues. As a result, interest in skin care which can be performed independently at home has increased. The purpose of this study is to design a customized home beauty care device to respond to these market trends. In order to do so, the double diamond model was applied in the design thinking process, and the design development process proceeded in the order of discovery, definition, development, and delivery. This study is meaningful in that it focused on the user-centered design development approach by fusing design thinking processes rather than styling-oriented design processes, and suggested new possibilities for design development using information based on the data measured.

Multiple scale modeling has been applied to predict defect shape change during the wire rod rolling process. The size difference between bloom and defect prevent using usual FEM approaches due to the enormous number of elements required to depict the defect. The newly developed multiple scale model can visualize defect shape changes during the multi stands rolling process. The defect positioned at the top and side of bloom are smoothed out but the one at the middle evolved as folding or remained as crack. This approach can be used for defect control with roll shape design and initial bloom shape.

The electrical contact resistance is here estimated using the multiscale microcontact distribution of elastic contact between rough surfaces, simulated from the Archard's model, and the electrical contact conduction theory suggested by Greenwood. These analysis confirms that the electrical contact resistance is converged to a values, larger than would be obtained if the contact spots were widely separated and hence independent. In multiscale process, the base potential is close to the value of the potential difference between the contact surface and the extremity of body, suggesting a possibility to obtain the multiscale electrical contact resistance relations.

인터넷산업은 기술, 자본, 마케팅 등의 이유로 활발한 전략적 제휴가 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문은 최근 7년간 인터넷 산업의 기업간 전략적 제휴 사례를 조사하여 이를 바탕으로 전략제휴 네트워크화 하였다. 이 네트워크에 대해 연결정도, 밀도, 컴퍼넌트 분석을 수행하였으며, 연결정도의 분포를 분석하여 자연계, 사회시스템 등에서 많이 발견되고 있는 스케일 프리 네트워크의 성질을 갖는 지를 분석하였다. 또한 인터넷 붕괴 이전과 이후의 2기간의 전략적 제휴 네트워크의 변화 정도도 파악 하였다. 이와 같은 네트워크 모델분석은 국내 인터넷산업의 제휴 관계와 그 변화 추세 등을 거시적으로 살펴보는데 도움이 될 것이다.
