본 연구에서는 생체 임피던스를 이용하여 3채널 상지(upper arm) 운동 분석 시스템을 제작하였다. 각 채널은 상지의 외전(supination)과 내전(pronation), 팔꿈치(elbow)의 폄과 굽힘, 손목(wrist)의 평과 굽힘에 따른 각 관절의 임피던스 변화를 얻을 수 있도록 설계되었다. 상체 임피던스는 전극의 부착위치에 의존하므로 정밀한 감지를 위해 상지 운동에 대한 임피던스의 변화와 각도계(goniometer)의 각도 변화와의 상관관계를 통하여 상관 관계가 높고, 변화량이 가장 크고 다른 관절의 움직임에 따른 영향이 최소인 곳을 찾아 이를 최적의 전극 위치로 정하였다. 그리고, 선정된 최적의 전극 위치에서 임피던스 변화를 얻어 상지 운동을 분석해 보았다. 최적의 전극 위치에서 손목과 팔꿈치의 각도 변화와 임피던스 변화의 상관 계수는 각각 0.94, -0.97로 아주 높은 상관 관계를 보였다. 또한 이전의 다른 연구에서 임피던스 방법으로 구현해 본적이 없는 팔의 회전(rotation)도 분석이 가능하였다. 이 시스템은 피검자의 동작에 거의 제한을 주지 않고, 가벼우며, 장시간 측정이 용이할 뿐만 아니라 시스템 구성이 영상 분석기에 비해서 단순하다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 방법은 재활과 생체역학, 로봇의 원격 제어, 그리고 가상 현실에서의 동작 구현 등에 활용 할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Minimum weight design of the boom of an excavator with stress and displacement constraints was performed. The procedure of analysis consists of the following steps. The finite element model of the boom was built up by using 227 triangular plate elements each of which has three nodes. And then the finite element program was implemented and its accuracy was verified by comparing its results with those of the commercial structural analysis package-ANSYS 4.4A. For the constraints of stresses and displacements, the design sensitivities of those were computed using direct differentiation method. To verify the reliability of them the results were compared with those of the finite difference method. The optimum design value was obtained by using PLBA(Pshenichny-Lim-Belegundu-Arora)non-linear optimization program which adopts the active set strategy. Using the above results, minimum weight design of an excavator boom showed an effect of 27% reduction in weight.

일반적으로 기계계 또는 기계요소가 외력을 받아 진동할 때 공진이 문제시 되는 경우가 많다. 이러한 계의 공진 제어에는 주로 댐핑재료(damping material)의 사용이 일반화 되어왔다. 그러나 댐핑재료를 사용한 제어에 있어 서는 계의 특성이나 규모등에 따라 많은 제한요소가 따르는데 특히 구조물 의 규모가 커지거나 복잡해지면, 제어 위치선정에도 어려움이 따르며 그 효 과도 기대하기 어렵다. 다른 방법으로는 기계계의 동적 특성치에 변화를 주 는 것이나, 이를 허용하지 않는 계가 많다. 따라서 이러한 단점들을 보완하 기 위해서 고안된 것이 동흡진기(dynamic absorber)이다. 기존의 선형 동흡 진기[1]는 주공진 부근영역에서 가진되는 계에만 적용이 가능하기 때문에, 흡진기와 기계계의 크기비(ratio)의 결정이 제한적이다. 이런 제한을 극복하 여 비교적 넓은 범위의 가진 주파수에 대해서 최대의 응답을 최소화하기 위 해서는 비선형 동흡진기[5]의 해석이 요구되고 있다. 제어대상의 최적응답을 얻기 위해 흡진기의 크기를 변화시키는 과정을 tuning이라 하는데, 이 과정 을 통해 최적의 감쇠값을 결정할 수 있다. 비선형 흡진기의 장점은 tuning 과정시 비선형 파라미터 변화에 의해 제어가 가능한 영역을 확장할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 동흡진기의 tuning 과정시 흡진기의 크기비와 비선형 파라미터비에 따른 효과를 정규모우드를 활용하여 고찰한 후, 최적의 응답을 통해 비선형 동흡진기의 동적 거동을 연구하였다.

Recently, the ratio of marine casualty has been marked about 72% in fishing boat and small ships which not less than 100 tons in Korea. It is mainly against navigation regulations such as look-out, selecting the ship's course and checking the ship's position according to the analysis of marine accident. In this paper, we proposes the Intelligent Navigation Guiding System(INGS) that provides an optimum route for an operator of small ships. INGS consists of program for route planning, interface module and GPS Plotter. we obtained optimum route from specific position to established route by INGS.

Optimal quality retentions of cooked rice packed in retort pouch were simulated by computer using various thicknesses of retort pouch (5 to 24mm) and process temperatures (110 to $150^{\circ}C$). Optimal conditions were chosen by the minimal c-values and maximal thiamine retention when good bacteriological lethality (12D processing) was obtained. From the results of calculations, it were shown that the better quality retentions of high tharmal processing can be obtained below pouch thickness of l0mm and that the thickness of pouch is critical factor at higher processing temperature.

The purpose of this paper is to construct a network model for the optimal allocation of limited water resources to the nodal system with given priorities. The solution technique for the model is based on the out-of-kilter algorithm(OKA). For the verification and application of the theoretical methodology and computer programs, the Geum river system is selected. Using release of Daecheong dam and water demand in Geum river basin, optimal allocation of water resources is accomplished for 4 cases(case 1 - case 4) which consider priority numbers in the demand nodes. The results of the application show that the model can reasonably represent the physical system, and water shortage at the demand nodes with high priority numbers is reduced. Its system solution was verified with that by the revised simplex algorithm.

The initial market of alternative-fuel vehicle (AFV) will show geographically uneven distribution due to AFV's high price, and thus efficient location model should consider spatial variation of demand. This paper estimates AFV trips by incorporating an AFV demand estimation model with origin-destination (OD) trips. The estimates are the input for the flow-refueling location model that maximizes the OD flows that can be refueled by the given number of stations considering AFV's limited range per refueling. A scenario analysis is conducted by varying assumptions in estimating demands and AFV acceptance rate. Optimal location alternatives for Orland metropolitan area are provided and results are compared.

In this paper the laminate design parameters are researched to maximize the performance index of a composite pressure vessel. To maximize the performance index, the three design variables that the thickness of each of helical and hoop layers and the length of hoop layer are considered under the assumption of fixed internal space. To optimize the variables, the response surface method is introduced for construction of the surrogate model and the ANOVA(analysis of variance) is performed to evaluate the effects of the variables. The optimization problem is formulated to maximize performance index under the burst pressure constraint. To verify the effectiveness of the research, numerical analyses are performed for the optimum model.
