The existing research on the damage detection method for building structures has considered the damages from the excessive loadings such as the earthquake. However, the structural performance of building structures could be reduced due to the deterioration based on the chloride, carbonation during the long-term time. Thus, to effectively manage the healthiness of structures, the deterioration influences on the structures should be checked. In this study, the corrosion of rebars by the chloride is considered as the deterioration factor. To consider the structural performance reduction of the corroded rebars, the yield strength, cross-sectional area, rupture strain of rebars and the compressive strength of cover concrete based on the corrosion level are estimated. These properties of rebars and cover concrete are used for the procedure to evaluate the structural performance reduction of structural member level and the building level. The moment-curvature analysis is performed to evaluate the structural performance reduction of structural member level. Also, the eigenvalue analysis and the pushover analysis are performed to investigate the natural period and mode shape and the strength and deformation performance of buildings, respectively.

This paper proposes a false alarm rate reduction technique for detection of small targets in a terrestrial environment. CFAR algorithm is useful in homogeneous background, but it is not easy to detect targets in non-homogeneous background. In particular, when the clutter power is not significantly different from the target signal, it is difficult to detect the target due to high false alarm rate. To solve these difficulties, this study presents the false alarm rate reduction technique based on CFAR algorithm, matched filter and binary integration technique. The parameters are studied through the theoretical analysis and the validity of the proposed study is examined by the test results.

This paper presents a design of a BLDC servo motor control system for the auto process of assembly and supply using DSP(Digital Signal Processor) controller and IGBT driver. The assembly and supply auto processing system needs torque, speed, position control of servo motor for variable action. This paper implements those servo control with vector control and space vector PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) technique. As CPU of controller, TMS320F240 DSP was adopted because it has PWM waveform generator, A/D converter, SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface) port and many input/output port etc. This control system consists of 3-level hierarchy structure that main host PC manages three sub DSP system which transfer downward command and are monitoring the states of end servo controllers. Each sub DSP system operates eight BLDC servo controllers which control BLDC motor using DSP and IPM. Between host system and sub DSP communicate with RS-422, between main processor and controller communicate with SPI port.

This study would like to propose a certification of aviation components manufactured through 3D printing. Currently, many types of 3D printers are being used in various industries. Among them, a lot of research is being done in the aviation sector to manufacture drones and aviation components. However, the current level of 3D printer technology and the application of aviation components using it are lacking in many problems and related airworthiness certification standards. Furthermore, clear certification criteria for conformity and coherence are rarely presented. Therefore, we would like to propose matters related to certification of 3D printed equipment for application as aviation components. It is expected that 3D printing equipment will improve precision, reduce defect rate, sagging problem, and bed leveling problem will be solved in the future, and certification standards will be clearly established. In addition, we hope that the reliability of aviation components applied with 3D printing technology will be improved and the relevant certification standards will be further developed.

Autonomous vehicles can be exposed to severe danger when failure occurs in any of its components. For this reason many countries are making efforts on the legislative issue how to objectively evaluate failure safety of an autonomous vehicle when such a vehicle is commercially available to a customer in the near future. In level-3 automation, a driver must take over the control of his vehicle when failure occurs, and the driver's controllability must be secured for escape from the imminent danger. In this paper, quantitative methods have been developed for evaluating failure safety of the level-3 autonomous vehicle, and they were validated by simulation. And also, we confirmed that the proposed evaluation method can quantitatively evaluate the failure safety.

Recently, wireless LAN circumstance is being widely deployed in Public spots. Many People use Portable equipments such as PDA and laptop computer for multimedia applications, and also demand of mobility support is increasing. However, handoff latency is inevitably occurred between both APs when clients move from one AP to another. To reduce handoff latency. in this paper, we suggest WFH(Weighted Frequent Handoff) using effective data structure. WFH improves cache hit ratio using a new cache replacement algorithm considering the movement pattern of users. It also reduces unessential duplicate traffics. Our algorithm uses FHR(Frequent Handoff Region) that can change pre-authentication lesion according to QoS based user level, movement Pattern and Neighbor Graph that dynamically captures network movement topology.

This study aims to maintain the safety of an outdoor storage tank through the fundamental case analysis of explosion and fire accidents in the storage tank. We consider an accident caused by the explosion of fire inside the tank, as a result of the gradual spreading of the residual fire generated by wind lamps flying off a workplace in the storage tank yard. To determine the cause of the accident, atmospheric diffusion conditions were derived through CCTV image analysis, and the wind direction was analyzed using computational fluid dynamics. Additionally, the amount of oil vapor inside the tank when the floating roof was at the lowest position, and the behavior of the vapor inside the tank when the floating roof was at the highest position were investigated. If the cause of the explosion in the storage tank is identified and the level of the storage tank is maintained below the internal floating roof, dangerous liquid fills the storage tank, and the vapor in the space may stagnate on the internal floating roof. We intend to improve the operation procedure such that the level of the storage tank is not under the Pontoon support, as well as provide measures to prevent flames from entering the storage tank by installing a flame arrester in the open vent of the tank.

In this study, initial crack index was evaluated by FEM analysis to find the crack propagation from hydration heat in precast concrete. As results, as the usage of hardening accelerator increased, initial compressive strength increased and setting time was shortened. Additionally, as amounts of hardening accelerators increased, the central temperature of concrete increased and the time to reach the highest temperature was shortened. It was demonstrated that the hardening accelerators accelerated the hydration reaction of cement, and caused the increase of hydration heat within the short period of time. Furthermore, the crack index for evaluating the heat level was performed by FEM. As results, there was no problem about the cracks, despite of the growth of initial high hydration heat. This is because of the increased tensile strength that is large enough to sustain the thermally induced-stress.
