Due to their elastic anisotropy, ultrasonic testing of austenitic welds, frequently used in nuclear power plants, is much more difficult than that of isotropic elements. For accurate testing of austenitic welds, ultrasonic wave phenomena therein must be full understood. This study uses an accurate and effective numerical model, the mass-spring lattice model, for such phenomena. By comparing the numerical results with the corresponding analytical results, it is shown that the model is capable of accurately predicting the generation, reflection, refraction, and scattering phenomena of ultrasonic waves in anisotropic austenite welds. Therefore, the mass-spring lattice model will provide a very useful tool for simulating ultrasonic testing of austenitic welds, and thus will contribute to the enhancement of reliability of such ultrasonic testing.

In this paper, ultrasonic nozzle and driving circuit were manufactured and their electrical properties were investigated. Uitrasonic nozzle was fabricated using PSN-PMN-PZT ceramics showing excellent piezoelectric characteristics. In order to drive ultrasonic nozzle, PWM controller(KA3525A) was used. With increasing input voltage of nozzle, particle diameters of diesel were increased up tot 16V and then decreased. At the input voltage of 12V, volume particle diameter showed the minimum value of $37.3{\mu}m$ and also at the input voltage of 18V, volume particle diameter showed the maximum value of $51.3{\mu}m$.

소나 센서부 설계 시 개별 센서에 대한 정합회로의 선계는 전체 가중회로의 특성에 매우 큰 영향을 미친다. 피러나 많은 경우 정합회로를 설계하는데 있어서 경험에 의한 수작업으로 수행하거나 매우 간단한 모델을 설정하여 그것을 바탕으로 설계하는 예가 많다. 다양한 센서에 대해서 유연하게 대응하는데 한계를 갖고 있고 또 많은 오류를 동반하기 때문에 정합회로 설계에 많은 시행착오를 초래한다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 센서에 유연하게 대응하는 정합회로 설계 도구를 구성하는 첫 단계로써 실제 소나 센서의 특성 측정 및 그를 바탕으로 한 소자 모델링을 일괄 작업화 한 선계 프로그램을 구성하여, 그 구성과 기능에 대해서 선명하고자 한다.

Obstacle detection and avoidance are considered as one of the key technologies on an unmanned vehicle system. In this paper, we propose a method of obstacle detection and avoidance and it is composed of vehicle control, modeling, and sensor experiments. Obstacle detection and avoidance consist of two parts: one is longitudinal control system for acceleration and deceleration and the other is lateral control system for steering control. Each system is used for unmanned vehicle control, which notes its location, recognizes obstacles surrounding it, and makes a decision how fast to proceed according to circumstances. During the operation, the control system of the vehicle can detect obstacles and perform obstacle avoidance on the road, which involves vehicle velocity. In this paper, we propose a method for vehicle control, modeling, and obstacle avoidance, which are evaluated through road tests.

In this paper, the cause of the discrepancy of the inlet and outlet flow of the lubricating oil feed pump was analyzed by the flow measurement and the analysis of the flow network. At first, we thought that the flow difference was induced by a leak in the middle of the flow network. But, through the flow measurement using ultrasonic flow meter and the performance analysis of the pump, we knew that the cause of the flow difference was due to a drop in efficiency of the pump according to the pressure drop of the outlet. Also, we knew that the shape of the piping had no effect on the efficiency of the pump.

By using ultrasonic waves, we obtained conclusion from the experiment for measuring joint axial force of high tension bolt. The conclusion is followed. : From the high tension bolts used at turbine of Thermoelectric Power Plant, we obtained the equation of calculating joint axial force that is ${\sigma}=\frac{{\Delta}BPD}{j{\times}{\Sigma}{\delta}}$. By using IBM PC, which is inputed by the equation for calculating joint axial force of high tension bolts, we got joint axial force of high tension bolts form beam path of ultrasonic waves. Furrther, we can identify that constitution of plant safety inspection system is possible.

최근 기후변화로 인해 퇴적 및 세굴이 심화되었고, 4대강 사업으로 인해 급격한 하천 지형 변화가 발생하였다. 특히, 4대강 사업 이후 하상변동 모니터링에 대한 지속적인 수요가 증가하고 있다. 이에 따라 개정된 하천법에 따르면 하상변동조사를 기본 10년 주기로 정기적으로 실시하되, 퇴적 및 세굴 발생 구간에 대해서는 기본 2년을 기준으로 하상변동이 큰 곳에 대해서는 1년 주기로, 하상변동이 작은 곳에 대해서는 5년 주기로 실시해야 한다. 하지만 기술 및 예산의 한계로 인해 하상변동조사의 경우 현장 유사량 및 하상토 입도 측정과 유량-총유사량 관계식을 활용하여 모델링을 통해 하상변동을 예측하고 있는 실정이다. 하상변동은 기본적으로 하천 수심을 기본으로 하고 있으며, 사람이 직접 투입하여 임의의 지점에 대한 수심 계측을 실시하고 있다. 하지만 직접 수심 계측의 경우 낮은 자료의 밀도로 인해 많은 인력과 예산, 시간이 소요되며 무엇보다도 관측 대상인 물이라는 작업환경에서는 인명피해가 발생할 수 있는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 최근에는 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위해 초음파 센서가 탑재된 이동식 보트를 활용하여 경로형 수심 계측을 실시하고 있으나, 초음파 센서가 가지는 기기적 한계로 인해 약 50cm 이하에 대한 수심은 측정이 어려운 실정이다. 특히, 국내 하천의 경우는 홍수기를 제외하면 수심이 얕기 때문에 얕은 수심에 대한 자료 확보가 어려워 공간적 정밀도 확보가 어려운 실정이다. 따라서 기존의 하천계측의 패러다임을 지점, 선형 계측이 아닌 면 측량을 실시를 통해 높은 밀도의 자료를 확보해야 한다. 이러한 측량이 가능한 기술로 하천원격탐사가 대안으로 제시되고 있다. 하천원격탐사는 직접 접촉하지 않고, 대상체의 광학적 특성을 통해 물리적 특성을 파악하는 기술로서 적은 시간에 높은 밀도의 자료의 확보와 저예산의 고효율 방법으로 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 하천원격탐사에서 활용한 고비용, 저해상도의 시공간 스케일에 해당하는 위성 및 유인항공기가 아닌 하천의 흐름방향으로 비행이 가능하고 상대적으로 저비용, 고해상도의 시공간 스케일의 측정이 가능한 드론을 활용하여 하천원격탐사를 수행하는 방법에 대해 논하고자 한다. 특히, 기술적 한계가 존재하는 청색, 녹색, 적색에 해당하는 RGB 영상을 활용한 하천원격탐사를 극복하기 위한 대안으로 초분광 영상을 수집하고 활용하는 방법을 제시하고자 한다.

Lithium-ion battery has been used for lots of electronic devices. With the popularization of batteries, researchers have focused on batteries' electrochemical performances by environmental conditions, such as temperature, vibration, shock and charging state. Meanwhile, due to very serious global warming, car companies have started using lithium-ion batteries even in cars, replacing internal combustion engines. However, batteries have been developed based on non-moving systems which is totally different from vehicles. In the line of the differences, researchers have tried to reveal relationship between variables from dynamic systems and batteries. In this review, we discuss the comprehensive effect of vibration and shock on batteries. We firstly summarize vibration profiles and effect of normal vibration on batteries. We also sum up effect of shock and penetration on batteries and introduce how ultrasound influences on batteries. Lastly, outlook for the battery design as well as dynamic design of EVs are discussed.

An automatic flow and water quality monitoring system was applied to estimate pollutant loads to an urban stream during storm events in DTV (Daeduk Techno Valley), Daejeon, Korea. The monitoring system consists of rainfall gage, ultrasonic water level meter, water quality sensors for DO, temperature, pH, conductivity, turbidity and automatic water sampler for further laboratory analysis. All data are transmitted through on-line system and the monitoring system is designed to be controlled manually in the field and remotely from laboratory computer. Flow rates were verified with field measurements during storm events and showed good agreements. Automatic sampler was used to collect real time samples and analyzed for BOD, COD, TN, TP, SS and other pollutant concentrations in the laboratory. SWMM (Storm Water Management Model) urban watershed model was applied and calibrated using the observed flow and water quality data for the study area. While flow modeling results showed good agreement for all events, water quality modeling results showed variable levels of agreement. These results indicate that current options in the SWMM model to predict pollutant build up and wash-off effects are not sufficient to satisfy modeling of all the rainfall events under study and thus need further modification. This study showed the automatic monitoring system can be used to provide data to assist further refinement of modeling accuracy. This automatic stormwater monitoring and modeling system can be used to develop basin scale water quality management strategies of urban streams in storm events.
