This work proposes a new method to generate velocity profile of a traction motor equipped in a rehabilitation system for knee joint patients through humanoid robot simulation. To this end, a three-dimensional full-body humanoid robot model is newly constructed, and natural human gait is simulated by applying to it reference joint angle trajectories already published. Linear velocity is derived from distance data calculated between the positions of a thigh band and its traction motor at every sampling instance, which is a novel idea of this paper. The projection rule is employed to kinematically describe the humanoid robot because of its high efficiency and accuracy, and measured joint trajectories are used in simulating human natural gait referring to Winter's book. The attained motor velocity profile for a certain position in human body will be applied to our walking-assistance system which is implemented with a treadmill system.

이 논문에서는 반능동 진동 흡수기를 통합 시트/섀시 현가 장치에 확대, 적용하여 그 성능을 조사하였다. 통함 현가시스템의 성능분석을 위해 집중 인체질량과 함께 실험적으로 입증된 한 비선형 시트 쿠션 모델을 도입하였다. 또한 3 자유도 시트/섀시 현가시스템의 효과적인 진동제어를 위해 리아푸노브 바이스테이트 제어법칙을 사용하였다. 시뮬레이션결과 반능동 통합 현가장치는 시트 쿠션 모델과 관계없이 운전자의 승차감과 관련 있는 시트의 절대가속도 크기와 시트쿠션의 시트 트랙에 대한 상대변위를 상당히 감소시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 그러나, 주로 사용되어온 선형 쿠션 모델을 사용한 경우보다 비선형쿠션 모델을 사용한 경우의 제진성능이 약간 저조함을 알 수 있었다. 따라서, 자동차 시트 설계시 성능분석을 위해서는 실제의(비선형의) 시트 쿠션 특성을 적용해야 함을 알 수 있다.

A wheeled armored vehicle is a military vehicle that has been developed to enhance combat capabilities and mobility for the army. The wheeled armored vehicle has a high center of gravity, and it operates on unpaved and sloped roads. Therefore, this vehicle has a high risk of rollover crashes. To design the interior of the military vehicle, the crew's safety during rollover crashes is an important factor. However, actual vehicle tests for design are extremely expensive. In this paper, nonlinear dynamic analysis is performed to simulate the rollover crashes and the passenger injury is assessed for a wheeled armored vehicle. The scope of this research is the rollover condition, FE modeling of the wheeled armored vehicle and the dummy, arrangement of dummies, assessment of passenger injuries, and simulation model for rollover crashes.

In this paper, we analyzed the electric/magnetic field distribution and SAR distribution in a human body due to the resonant-type wireless power transfer(WPT) system with an operating frequency of 6.78 MHz. To analyze the field distribution under the unperturbed condition, a prototype system was fabricated and the measured results were compared with the simulation results. For safety during measurement, the available power to the transmitter coil is limited to 1 W. To analyze the induced current density and SAR distribution, a simple human model consisting of three layers, skin, fat, and muscle, was used for the simulation. The electromagnetic wave exposure levels obtained through measurement and simulation were compared with the recommended levels by the ICNIRP.

Air qualify monitoring if a primary activity for industrial and social environment. Especially, the VOCs(Volatile Organic Compounds) are very harmful for human and environment. Throughout this research. we designed sensor array with various kinds of gas sensor, and the recognition algorithm with ANN(Artificial Neural Network : BP), respectively. We have designed system to recognize various kinds and quantities of VOCs, such as benzene, tolylene, and xylene.

There still is a limitation in the usage of 3D clothes model in the production line due to the lack of compatibility between 3D modeling software, and its accurate 2D pattern making software, especially for free formed dress with tight fitted zone and draped part. In this study, obstacles in the 3D direct dress design process was overcome by solving the compatibility among each step of 3D virtual design process as well as adopting 3D-2D direct pattern development program called 2C-AN. Efficacy of making 2D pattern from 3D dress design using 2C-AN program developed by the authors was examined during the course of actual dress making process. Accurate ease over the fitted dress part was examined by 3D scanning technology, and the actual appearance of the draped part was compared with the simulation image of dress model. It was confirmed that the entire 3D design process and direct 2D pattern development proposed in this study was accurate enough to use in the 3D design process.

Recently, the research to visualize and to reproduce evacuation situations such as terrorism, the disaster and fire indoor space has been come into the spotlight and designing a model for interior space and reliable analysis through safety evaluation of the life is required. Therefore, this paper aims to develop simulation model which is able to suggest evacuation route guidance and safety analysis by considering the major risk factor of fire in actual building. First of all, we designed 3D-based fire and evacuation model at a subway station building in Incheon and performed fire risk analysis through thermal parameters on the basis of interior materials supplied by Incheon Transit Corporation. In order to evaluate safety of a life, ASET (Available Safe Egress Time), which is the time for occupants to endure without damage, and RSET (Required Safe Egress Time) are calculated through evacuation simulation by Fire Dynamics Simulator. Finally, we can come to the conclusion that a more realistic safety assessment is carried out through indoor space model based on 3-dimension building information and simulation analysis applied by safety guideline for measurement of fire and evacuation risk.

We present a real-time simulation method for muscles which are actuated by skeletal structure based on anatomical properties of the muscles. Muscles are designed by their two endpoints attached to either bones or other muscles and their volume are preserved approximately during the deformation. Skin deformation animation is obtained by a simple skinning due to the muscle deformation. We present also the performance data for a human-like multi-linked character which has bones, muscles, and skin. According to our experimental result, we can get skin deformation animation with a few tens of muscles in real-time. The method proposed in this paper can be applied to obtain skin deformation animation for multi-linked characters appear frequently in real-time environments such as games.

Recently, finite element analysis technique has been widely used for structural and mechanical understandings of human body in the dentistry field. This research proposed an effective finite element modeling method based on CT images, and parametric studies were performed for the occlusal simulation. The analyses were performed considering linear material behaviors and nonlinear geometrical effect, and validated with the experimental results. In addition, the skull models with two different molar relations such as Class I and full-CUSP Class II were generated and the analyses were performed using the proposed analytical method. As results, the relationships between the mandibular movement and occlusal force of both two models showed similar tendency in human occlusal force. However, stress was evenly distributed from teeth to facial bone in the skull model with Class I, while stress concentration was appeared in the model with full-CUSP Class II due to the changes of occlusal surfaces of the model.
