This paper presents the design concept of an intrinsic continuum robot for safe man-machine interface and characteristic behaviors of its end-effector based on real experiments. Since pneumatic artificial muscles having similar antagonistic actuation to human muscles are used for main backbones of the proposed robot as well as in the role of the actuating devices, variable stiffness of robotic joints can be available in the actual environment. In order to solve the inherent shortcoming of an intrinsic continuum robot due to bending motion of the backbone materials, a Kalman filter scheme based on a triaxial accelerometer and a triaxial gyroscope was proposed to conduct an attitude estimation of the end-effector of the robot. The experimental results verified that the proposed method was effective in estimating the attitude of the end-effector of the intrinsic continuum robot.

In this study, that the Kraven(II) empirical formula, the existing method to estimate the time of concentration in river basin, does not reflect the characteristics of relevant basin as it presents 3 stream velocities by section of slope was verified, and the time of concentration for the actual average stream velocity considering the characteristics of the basin was compared and analyzed by applying the continuous Kraven empirical formula, which was suggested recently by 'Design Flood Estimation Guide Line, 2012, Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs' complementing the stream velocities for the easy slope and the steep slope, to the Donghwa-Cheon, the medium size river and the modality of changes in hydrograph was examined, For the Maeho-Cheon, Wuksu-Cheon and Geumpo-Cheon, the flood runoff simulation results according to the time of concentration application empirical formula considering the characteristics of relevant basin were compared and analyzed and following conclusions were able to obtain.

Traditional GIS-based probabilistic spatial data integration models for landslide susceptibility analysis have failed to provide the theoretical backgrounds and effective methods for integration of different types of spatial data such as categorical and continuous data. This paper applies two spatial data integration models including non-parametric empirical estimation and parametric predictive discriminant analysis models that can directly use the original continuous data within a likelihood ratio framework. Similarity rates and a prediction rate curve are computed to quantitatively compare those two models. To illustrate the proposed models, two case studies from the Jangheung and Boeun areas were carried out and analyzed. As a result of the Jangheung case study, two models showed similar prediction capabilities. On the other hand, in the Boeun area, the parametric predictive discriminant analysis model showed the better prediction capability than that from the non-parametric empirical estimation model. In conclusion, the proposed models could effectively integrate the continuous data for landslide susceptibility analysis and more case studies should be carried out to support the results from the case studies, since each model has a distinctive feature in continuous data representation.

The aim of this study is to propose a tree-structured clustering for mixed data. We suggest a scaling method to reduce the variable selection bias among categorical variables. In numerical examples such as credit data, German credit data, we note several differences between tree-structured clustering and K-means clustering.

A rational and straightforward method is introduced for developing continuum models of large platelike periodic lattice structures based on energy equivalence, The procedure for developing continuum models involves using existing finite element matrices in calculating strain and kinetic energies of a repeating cell. The equivalent continuum plate properties are obtained from the direct comparison of the reduced stiffness and mass matrices for continuum and lattice plates. Numerical results prove that the method developed in this paper shows very good agreement with other well-recognized methods.

본 논문에서는 패칭 기법[3]을 사용한 프락시 관리 기법을 사용하여 연속형 스트립 서비스를 하는 스트림 서비스 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 기법에서는 프락시에 캐슁된 데이터의 양에 따라 스트림 전송 방식을 달리한다. 첫째, 요청된 객체 전체가 캐슁되어 있을 경우 프락시 만으로 서비스 한다. 둘째, 요청된 객체가 전혀 캐쉽 되어있지 않을 경우 후행 스트림들이 서버로부터 객체를 전송할 때 발생하는 초기 지연을 상쇄할 만큼의 데이터를 선반입 한다. 셋째, 일부분 만이 캐슁 된 경우에는 해당 객체를 요청 하는 스트림 사이에 존재하는 데이터 양만큼을 프락시에 패칭하며 이 경우에는 사용자 노드는 두개의 채널을 열어 하나는 프락시에 패칭된 데이터를 읽는데 사용하며 또 하나의 채널로는 서버로부터 나머지 부분을 읽어오는데 사용한다.

A method for damage detection in a plate structure is presented based on strain waves that are generated by impact or damage in the structure. Strain responses from continuous sensors, which are long ribbon-like sensors made from piezoceramic fibers or other materials, were used with a neural network technique to estimate the damage location. The continuous sensor uses only a small number of channels of data acquisition and can cover large areas of the structure. A grid type structural neural system composed of the continuous sensors was developed for effective damage localization in a plate structure. The ratios of maximum strains and arrival times of the maximum strains obtained from the continuous sensors were used as input data to a neural network. Simulated damage localizations on a plate were carried out and the identified damage locations agreed reasonably well with the exact damage locations.

In this paper, the vocabulary-independent continuous speech recognition system for speech control of intelligent home-network is presented. This study suggests a conversational scenario of continuous natural vocabulary based upon keywords for recognition on natural speech command, and a way of optimizing the recognition system by constructing a recognition system and database based upon keywords.
