The stress analysis of the pipeline is required in any kind of plant for its safe operation. For this, the displacement vibration data measured at many locations of the pipeline should be provided. In reality, the installation of the non-contact type displacement sensors such as laser displacement sensors or eddy current type proximity sensors in a narrow and confined region in the vicinity of the pipeline is almost impracticable. In this work, the general purpose piezo-ceramic accelerometers were attached on the measuring points on the pipeline and the acceleration vibration signal was acquired. The measured acceleration signal was low pass filtered and then downsampled. The resulting acceleration signal was transformed into both the time-domain and frequency-domain displacement signal utilizing the fast Fourier transform techniques. All the procedures are presented in detail. It is demonstrated that the measurement of the pipeline acceleration by using contact type accelerometers can be made for the purpose of providing the required displacement data for the stress analysis of the pipeline.

실리콘(Si)은 이미지 센서, 포토검출기, 태양전지등 반도체 광전소자 분야에서 널리 사용되고 있는 대표적인 물질이다. 이러한 소자들은 광추출 또는 광흡수 효율을 향상시키는 것이 매우 중요하다. 그러나 Si의 높은 굴절율은 표면에서 30% 이상의 반사율을 발생시켜 소자의 성능을 저하시킨다. 따라서, 표면에서의 광학적 손실을 줄이기 위한 효과적인 무반사 코팅이 필요하다. 최근, 우수한 내구성과 광대역 파장 및 다방향성에서 무반사 특성을 보이는 서브파장 주기를 갖는 나노격자(subwavelength grating, SWG) 구조의 형성 및 제작에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이러한 구조는 경사 굴절율 분포를 가지는 유효 매질을 형성시킴으로써 Fresnel 반사율을 감소시킬 수 있어 반도체 소자 표면에서의 광손실을 줄일 수 있다. 그러나, SWG나노구조는 식각에 의한 표면 결함(defects)들이 발생하게 된다. 이러한 결함은 표면에서의 재결합 손실을 발생시켜 소자의 성능을 크게 저하시킨다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해, 표면 보호막 및 무반사 코팅 층을 목적으로 하는 산화막을 표면에 형성시키기도 한다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 레이저간섭리소그라피 및 건식 식각을 이용하여 Si 기판에 SWG 나노구조를 형성하였고, 제작된 샘플 표면 위에 실리콘 산화막(SiOx)을 furnace를 이용하여 형성시켰다. 제작된 샘플들의 표면 및 식각 profile은 scanning electron microscope를 사용하여 관찰하였으며, UV-vis-NIR spectrophotometer 를 사용하여 빛의 입사각에 따른 반사율을 측정하였고, 표면 접촉각 측정 장비를 이용하여 표면 wettability를 조사하였다.

The electromechanical brake (EMB) is one of future brake systems due to its many advantages. For implementation of the EMB, the correct feed back about clamping force is necessary. Keeping commercialization of the EMB in mind, it is strongly demanded that an expensive load cell measuring the clamping force is replaced with an estimation algorithm. In addition, an estimation of the kissing point where the brake pads start to come into contact with a disk wheel is proposed in this paper. With these estimation algorithms, the clamping force can be expressed as a polynomial characteristic curve versus the motor angle. Also, a method for calibration of measured values by the load cell is proposed and used for an actual characteristic curve. Lastly, the performance of the proposed algorithms is evaluated in comparison with the actual curve on a developed EMB test bench.

The tillage depth control system is one of the most salient control system of tractor implements. A contact-type height sensor was developed to measure ground clearance for the tillage depth control. The height sensor was fabricated in this study, and its efficacy in a tillage depth control system was evaluated. Experiments were conducted in order to determine both static and dynamic detection characteristics of the height sensor using soil bin system on the sampled soil (sandy loam, sand, clay loam). The results of the static detection characteristics showed that in the case, sandy loam soil despite and clay loam soil at a wet basis moisture content of 30%, large measurement errors were observed a due to penetration of a plastic puck into the sampled soil. The results of the dynamic detection characteristics showed that the height sensor detected the distance from the ground of sandy loam soil despite the uneven nature of the ground surface and the changes in traveling speed $1km/h{\sim}5km/h$ at a wet basis moisture content of 10%.

Mother ship must be able to know accident occurrence information rapidly to rescue crew who fall in sea. In this paper, designed and manufactured transceiver of prescribed 447 MHz is operating as low power radio station specified in Radio Regulation. So, it is available without special permission proceedings getting form probation so that the use of this system may be easy. the system has been started for operation when the sensor get in touch with water. The system transmits with modulation by 500Hz square wave, and the receiver alarms when the transmitted signal is received. Therefore, the system can be used for not only saving a life, but also for low speed of data transmission below 2,400 bps, and other purposes.

There are many types of seam tracking methods actually used in industrial spot. Lately, Non-contact sensor technics are mostly used because non-contact sensor has more advantage than contact sensor in many parts. This paper also concerned about fiber sensor a kind of non-contact sensor. X-Y robot and fiber sensor scan the seam tracking to be weld. After scanning, X-Y robot moves the first working point of being scanned and welding starts automatically. It makes an experiment on some types of Seam tracking like straight line tracking, leaned line tracking and curved line tracking to confirm how well the fibers sensor tracks the seam pass to be weld. And the seam pass that had been tracked was welded by inverter $CO_2$ voiding machine.

신재생에너지원의 급속한 보급, 고신뢰 및 고효율 전원망에 대한 고객의 요구, 디지털부하의 급증 등 기술적 사회적 환경의 변화에 따라 직류배전망에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 이에 따라 직류배전망의 안전성에 대한 문제도 지속적으로 제기되고 있다. 특히 지락, 단락사고, 절연고장, 낙뢰, 아크, 전식 등으로부터 인체 감전과 기기의 소손, 정지 또는 오동작이 발생될 수 있으며 이로 인해 심각한 문제를 야기될 수 있다. 국제표준 IEC 60364에서는 전기설비에 따른 접지시스템을 TT, TN 및 IT접지의 3가지로 분류하고 있다. TN접지방식은 전원선과 설비외함의 노출 도전부를 보호도체를 사용하여 공통으로 접지하는 계통을 말한다. 따라서, 전원선이 외함에 접촉되거나 인체의 감전에 의한 누전사고가 발생하였을 때 전원선 전체를 통하여 흐르는 전류의 차이를 검출함으로서 사고전류의 검출이 즉각 이루어 질 수 있다. 교류계통에서는 영상전류검출기에 의하여 누설전류의 검출이 가능하지만 직류계통에서는 영상전류검출기를 사용할 수 없으므로 새로운 방식의 누전검출장치의 개발이 요구된다. 또한 감전 사고는 인체의 사고와 설비의 사고 두 가지로 구별되며, 효율적인 전력운영과 안전을 위하여 두가지 사고에 대해 통합적으로 구분 동작이 가능한 누설전류 검출기 개발이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 TN접지계통에서 직류누설전류 검출이 가능한 홀 센서(HCT)를 사용하여 인체 및 설비의 누설전류 패턴에 따라 구분 동작이 가능한 직류용 누설전류 검출기 개발에 관한 연구를 수행하였다.

This paper proposes a new contact type ball tracking sensor to improve the control performance of a low cost ball-and-beam system. It is well-known that the impulsive measurement noise contained in ball position measurement is one of the factors which severely degrades the ball-and-beam control performance. The impulsive ball position measurement noises often appear under the sporadical ball floating on the beam. This fact motivates us to devise a simple analog preprocessing circuit to determine whether the ball loses the contact or not. Once the abnormal ball position measurement is detected, the design problem of the ball tracking sensor can be cast into the typical state estimation problem with missing data. In order to tackle the real-time implementation issue, a steady-state Kalman filter is applied to the problem. Through the experimental results, the usefulness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated.
