Kiosks are widely used in drive-thru systems in parking lots or on the highway to provide various services to drivers. However, the driver must stop at an exact location to access the kiosk, since its panel is fixed. In order to improve the kiosk accessibility, in this study we developed a manipulator that can adjust the position of the kiosk panel. The number of active joints was minimized to lower the cost, whereas a parallelogram mechanism and passive joints were adopted to increase its convenience for the users. Furthermore, a safety mechanism using springs and a cam was designed to ensure the safety of the user in the case of an emergency. The performance of the position controller and the safety mechanism were verified through various tests. In addition, the proposed collision reaction strategy improved the safety performance of the kiosk system.

In this paper, a developed device for detecting target's location and avoiding collision is proposed. Velocity and acceleration model of target are derived to estimate target's information, i.e. position, velocity and acceleration considering process and measurement noise. Kalman filtering method applied to the estimation process and its results was confirmed by simulation. The distance measurements system using laser sensor for moving target system is also developed to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme. Experiments to get information of moving target with velocity and acceleration model was executed. The data with filtering and without filtering was compared by experiments. Discontinuous measured data was changed to smooth and continuous data by Kalman filtering. It is confirmed that desired data was obtained by applying proposed scheme. UI for measuring and monitoring the target data is developed and visual and auditory alarm function is attached on the system Finally, position estimation system of moving target with good performance is achieved by low price equipments.

In this study, the collision analysis of SCP(Sandwich Concrete Panel) composing the outer tank of LNG storage was performed and its collision behavior was analyzed. For the same collision energy value proposed in BS7777 code, the collision conditions are composed by using two types of missiles and various collision speeds. Nonlinear dynamic analysis models were constructed to perform numerical analysis on the various collision conditions. Also, the collision behavior was analyzed assuming that the second collision with the same collision energy occurs at the same point after the first collision. As a result of the analysis, it was found that with smaller missile and low collision speed had caused larger deformation. The collision energy dissipated in ratio of about 6: 4 in the outer steel plate and the inner filling concrete. In the results of double collision analysis, the final collisional deformation was dominated by the size of the second missile, and the amount of deformation due to the second collision was smaller than that of the first collision because of the membrane behavior of the steel plates. In the offset double collision cases, the largest deformation occurs at the secondary collision point regardless of the offset distance.

When an absolute elastic collision occurs between a motion body and the another body inside a closed space, according to the current physical law and thus a computer graphical expression, it is defined that the center of mass of the closed space is not moved. This paper defines a physical law which includes a minor facts of the center of mass of a closed space moves during an absolute elastic collision occurs between a motion body and another body inside a closed space. The law defined in this paper has been verified using approximate lab equipments, and using this, graphical expression models and mathematical expressions for an absolute elastic collision between two bodies inside a closed space are del ed. When the minor effects of the center of mass moves is applied to the multi-body dynamic simulation program or haptic program, more accurate motion could be expressed. This definition can also be applied to an animation movie or other graphical motion expression for more realistic expression.

Location information is a critical element of ubiquitous computing. Cricket is an indoor location-based system that transmits radio and ultrasonic signals in regular intervals to calculate the distance between nodes. However, the amount of signal interference and collisions increases in proportion with the number of nodes, losing the accuracy of the location-based system. This study proposes an algorithm based on the 802.15.2 MAC protocol for the wireless sensor network to reduce signal interference and collision by employing node numbers and the frequency reuse approach used in mobile telecommunication. We analyzed the performance of our algorithm. The obtained results showed that the algorithm is an effective for throughput and energy compared to the Cricket system.

In recent years, numerous train derailment accidents caused by deterioration and high speed technology of railways have increased. Guardrails or barriers of railway bridges are installed to restrain and prevent the derailment of the train body level. On the other hand, it can result in a high casualties and secondary damage. Therefore, a Derailment Containment Provision (DCP) within the track at the wheel/bogie level was developed. DCP is designed for rapid installation because it reduces the impact load on the barrier and inertia force on the steep curve to minimize turnover, fall, and trespass on the other side track of the bridge. In this paper, DCP was analyzed using LS-Dyna with a parameter study as the impact loading location and interface contact condition. The contact conditions were analyzed using the Tiebreak contact simulating breakage of material properties and Perfect bond contact assuming fully attached. As a result, the Tiebreak contact behaved similarly with the actual behavior. In addition, the maximum displacement and flexural failure was generated on the interface and DCP center, respectively. The impact analysis was carried out in advance to confirm the DCP design due to the difficulties of performing the actual impact test, and it could change the DCP anchor design as the analysis results.

고체 추진제 로켓의 연소시에 발생되는 산화 알루미늄(A1$_2$O$_3$) 입자는 로켓 추진 노즐에서 팽창과정의 효율을 저하시키는 요소가 되며, 이러한 비효율성은 연소 가스와 입자간의 비평형 상태 효과와 기본적인 속도와 열적 차이에 의해서 발생된다고 보고되었다. 또한 연소시 발생된 산화 알루미늄 입자는 높은 열과 큰 운동량을 가지고 로켓 노즐 내부를 유동하게 되며, 매우 많은 량이 짧은 시간에 고온 고속으로 노즐 벽면이나 기타 구조물에 충돌 및 점착하기 때문에 로켓 노즐내의 표면이 손상을 입게 되고, 로켓의 방향 제어 및 조정 안정성이 저하되며, 구조적인 강도가 약화 될 수 있다. 또한 산화 알루미늄 액적들의 경우 노즐 벽면에 고착되게 되면 로켓의 중량 증가로 인해서 추력의 손실을 초래할 수 있다. 따라서 이러한 연소 부산물들의 운동 경로와 충돌 위치 및 표면에서의 충돌량과 그리고 충돌에 따른 마모량 및 점착 그리고 열전달 특성을 예측하는 것이 필수적이다.

국제 해상물동량(해상화물 수송량은 10년 사이에 매년 평균 4.3%씩)의 증가에 따라 해양사고의 발생 빈도도 높아지고 있으며, 사고의 규모도 대형화 되고 있는 추세이다. 이에 따라 해상에서의 선박 위험도 저감을 위한 많은 시스템들이 개발/운영되고 있지만, 대부분 실시간 위치정보를 기반으로 충돌위험 등을 분석하고 있고, 선박간의 충돌 외의 선박의 주변 환경에 대한 고려는 미비한 실정이다. 실제 해상에서의 통항량 및 10년간 사고를 분석하여, 충돌등 사고가 많은 남동부 해역(여수/통영/진해)의 통항패턴, 교차구역 및 해양사고 특성을 분석해보고, 이에 따라 Sector별 특징적 집중 관제 방안을 마련하여, 선제적 안전 서비스 방안을 연구하고자 한다.

3차원 입자 모델을 이용하여 $12\;mm{\times}625\;mm$ 크기의 평판형 마그네트론 스퍼터링용 음극에서 전자의 운동을 해석하였다. 전자와 중성 가스 입자의 충돌은 모두 세 가지를 고려하였으며 Runge-Kutta 4th order 방법을 이용하여 전자의 궤적을 계산하였다. 400 eV의 전자는 5 mTorr의 압력에서 알곤과 평균 8 - 12회 이온화 충돌 후 집중 방전 영역에서 벗어났으며 문헌에 보고된 2차원 실린더형 마그네트론에서 보고된 값보다 작았다. 마그네트론의 집중 방전 특성은 전자와 중성의 소각 산란에 의해서 주로 발생되었으며 이온화 충돌에 의해서 발생되는 2차 전자는 충돌 위치에서의 자기장 값에 의해서 궤적이 결정되었다.
