Deterioration of reinforced concrete structures in corrosive environment is tend to be accelerated due to ingress of aggressive ion such as chloride ion. Chloride-induced corrosion is affected by various factors such as cover concrete qualities, width of existing cracks, and cover depth of concrete. However, the allowable crack width of RC structure in design code does not consider the concrete material properties and conditions of construction except the cover depth. In this paper, an equation for allowable crack width is proposed to consider the cover concrete quality, crack width, and cover depth. Crack width, cover depth, and water-cement ratio of concrete are selected as influencing factors on corrosion of reinforcement for rapid chloride tests. From test results, the relationships between the factors and corrosion are derived. Finally, the equation for allowable crack width is derived in terms of concrete compressive strength and cover depth. The presented equation is verified by comparative calculations with design code variables.

In order to monitor the impact locations in smart structures, multipoint ultrasonic sensors are to be employed. In this study, a multiplexing demodulator with wide dynamic range was proposed to detect the impact locations using FBG sensors, and a stabilization controlling system was also developed for the maintenance of maximum sensitivity of sensors. Two FBG sensors were attached on the bottom side of the aluminum beam specimen and low velocity impact tests were performed to detect the one-dimensional impact locations. As a result, multiplexed in-line FBG sensors could detect the moment of impact precisely, and found the impact locations with the average location error below 0.58mm.

In this paper, we propose a method to obtain a linear characteristic using soft computing for systems which have array sensors of nonlinear characteristics. Also a procedure utilizing the pattern information of array sensors without additional sensors is proposed to reduce disturbance effects. For a typical example, even a single CdS cell for CdS array has nonlinear characteristics. Overall linear characteristic for CdS array is obtained using fuzzy logic for each cell and overlapped portion. In addition, further improvement for linearization is obtained applying genetic algorithms for the parameters of membership functions. Also the effect of disturbing external light changes to the CdS array can be reduced without using any additional sensors for calibration. The proposed method based on fuzzy logic shows improvements for position measurements and disturbance reduction to external light changes due to the fuzziness of the shadow boundary as well as the inherent nonlinearity of the CdS array. This improvement is shown by applying the proposed method to the ball position measurements of a magnetic levitation system.

In this paper, we showed the characteristic of transmission line with DCS (Defected Ground Structure), which is etched on the metallic ground plane. And we extracted the equivalent element value of DGS section. Effects of a lumped element placed on DGS section were investigated by employing DGS of dumbbell shape and parallel resonator with DGS. Chip type resistor, inductor, and capacitor were chosen as lumped elements for experiments. Experimental results show that the Q-factor and resonant frequency of the proposed DGS section can be controlled directly by using the external lumped element.

This paper describes radix-4 Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) Processor designed with the new twice perfect shuffle developed from a perfect shuffle used in radix-2 FFT algorithm. The FFT Processor consists of a butterfly arithmetic circuit, address generators for input, output and coefficient, input and output registers and controller. Also, it requires the external ROM for storage of coefficient and RAM for input and output. The butterfly circuit includes 12 bit-serial ($16{\times}8$) multipliers, adders, subtractors and delay shift registers. Operating on 25 MHz two phase clock, this processor can compute 256 point FFT in 6168 clocks, i.e. 247 us and provides flexibility by allowing the user to select any size among 4,16,64,and256points. Being fabricated with 2-um double metal CMOS process, it includes about 28000 transistors and 55 pads in $8.0{\times}8.2mm^2$area.

APP based on the smart phone is being utilized to various scopes such as medical services in hospitals, financing services at banks and credit card companies, and ubiquitous technologies in companies and homes etc. In this service environment, exposures of smart phones cause loss of assets including leaks of official/private information by outsiders. Though secret keys, pattern recognition technologies, and single image authentication techniques are being applied as protective methods, but they have problems in that accesses are possible by utilizing static key values or images like pictures. Therefore, this study proposes a face authentication technology for protecting smart phones from these dangerous factors and problems. The proposed technology authenticates users by extracting key frames of user's facial images by real time, and also controls accesses to the smart phone. Authentication information is composed of multiple key frames, and the user' access is controlled by distinction algorism of similarity utilizing DC values of image's pixel and luminance.

Propellant pressurization system in liquid rocket propulsion system plays a role supplying pressurant gas at a controlled pressure into the ullage space of propellant tanks. The most important design parameter for such propellant pressurization system is the temperature of pressurant gas fed from pressurant tank. Such pressurant is gaseous state, of which density is very sensitive to the temperature of pressurant. Generally for the propulsion system, which requires high thrust and is consisted of cryogenic propellant the pressurant is stored at high density and high pressure to reduce the weight of pressurant tanks, which are placed inside of cryogenic propellant tank. That is called cryogenic storage pressurization system. This study investigates the temperature variation of pressurant at the time when the pressurant is coming out of pressurant tank experimentally as well as numerically. Fluids used in this study are air and liquid oxygen as outer fluid and gaseous nitrogen and gaseous helium as pressurant respectively.

수공구 사용시 과도한 힘은 작업성 근골격계 질환을 일으킬 수 있는 주요 원인중 하나이다. 이와 관련하여, 수공구 파지시 인체 내부에 부과되는 근력과 외적으로 작용된 힘 간의 비율을 이해하는 것이 중요하며, 이는 근육에 부과되는 과도한 힘을 최소화 시키고, 작업에 필요한 힘의 효율성을 극대화 시키는데 필수적이라 할 수 있다. 이러한 비율과 관련하여 많은 연구가 되어 왔으나, 대부분 수리적 인체역학적 모델과 같은 간접적 추정 방법에 의거하고 있는 실정이다. 이러한 인체역학적 모델을 검증하고 개선하기 위하여 해부용 팔 (cadaver)을 활용한 직접적인 근력과 악력 측정이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 해부용 팔을 이용하여 상지 굴근(hand flexor)을 자동으로 제어하고 근력과 함께 악력을 측정할 수 있는 Hand Motion Simulator를 개발하고, 이를 통하여 다양한 사이즈의 손잡이 파지시 요구되는 근력과 외적으로 적용된 악력을 비교함으로써 수공구 손잡이 사이즈에 따른 근력의 효율성에 대하여 측정을 해 보았다. 또한, 적용된 굴근 (FDP & FDS) 간의 힘 비율에 따른 파지법의 차이를 조사해 보았다. 내부에 주어진 근력은 외부로 작용된 악력보다 5.3배 높은 부하가 작용하였으며 이러한 수공구 손잡이 파지시 힘의 효율성 역시 FDP 와 FDS 간의 비율이 3:2 였을 때, 그리고 손잡이 크기가 작을수록 높은 결과를 보였다. 반대로 손잡이의 크기가 커질수록 힘의 효율성은 저하되었다. 또한, 손가락 관절 각도의 경우 FDP와 FDS간의 비율에 따라 상이한 자세를 나타내었다. FDP 굴근의 비율이 높을 경우 손가락 끝마디 관절 (DIP) 의 굴곡을 보였으며, FDS 굴근 비율이 높을 경우 손가락 두 번째 관절(PIP)의 굴곡을 보였다. 본 연구를 통한 결과는 추후 상지작업자에 대한 근골격계 질환 예방 기준안 마련 및 수공구 설계를 위한 기초자료로 활용이 가능할 것으로 보인다.

Along with trends of other countries, the Ministry of Information and Communication in Korea decided to operate an Information System Audit Institution for raising qualify of computer network facilitated in state organ and public institution, and to construct effective construction of information system. The aim of the audit institution is applying it to public information business, establishing an information system audit qualification system, and upbringing Private audit organs. The Ministry of Information and Communication realized that although the demand of information system area audit is explosively expanding, the National Computerization Agency cannot satisfies the demand and realize to have audit control for the information of national business as well. The Ministry of Information and Communication plan to enforce the audit on public information business by correlate with information business. The ministry enforce that the supervisory company has major roll to audit and national import business decided by the Information Promotion Committee is subject to have audit control. Therefore, in this paper, the contents of internal audit among internal/external audit will be presented.
