We make a gonioradiometer to realize the scales of total luminous flux and total spectral flux from standards of irradiance and illuminance. Transferring of the photometric scales to a radiometric base has been completed by using a new goniometer to realize a scale of total luminous flux from the scale of illuminance. This is done by measuring the flux emanating from an optical source in different directions and integrating it over an entire imaginary surface surrounding the source. This method is suggested for the realization of the scales of total luminous flux and geometrically total spectral flux. The combined uncertainty of a total flux in the KRISS gonioradiometry is 1 % in the condition of 95% reliance.

In designing automatic water quality monitoring networks for a river basin, determination of measurement locations and items is critical to the effectiveness of the total system. In this paper we studied how to decide these two design factors when a monitoring network is designed for the purposse of water quality surveillance and emergency alarm. For measurement locations, candidate sites are chosen based on the intake amount for water supply and the point sources of contamination. Then, detailed locations are decided according to the contaminant flow distance. As for measurement items, characteristics and the accident history of water pollution in the basin must be taken into account. Considering economic aspects, we proposed a two-stage measurement plan: basic components for all locations and selective ones variable for different locations. Proposed methodology is demonstrated through a case study for Nak-dong River Basin.

W-대역 잡음온도 표준 확립에 필요한 잡음전력 수신기인 라디오미터를 제작하고, 성능을 평가하였다. 제작된 라디오미터를 사용하여 기준 상온 및 저온잡음원, 그리고 피측정잡음원의 잡음전력을 각각 측정하고, 라디오미터 식을 사용하여 피측정잡음원의 잡음온도를 구하였다. 결과에 대한 측정불확도를 평가하고, 국외 측정표준기관인 영국 NPL의 측정결과와 비교함으로써 측정의 유효성을 검증하였다. 확립된 W-대역 잡음온도 측정표준을 국내 산학연에 보급함으로써 자동차, 항공, 우주, 국방, 보안 등 다양한 분야의 잡음측정에 있어서 측정의 신뢰성을 높이는데 기여하게 될 것이다.

The objective or this paper is to measure the in-plane vibration intensity of a beam with a damped end that means the magnitude and direction of vibration power. Three experimental methods have been implemented to measure the in-plane vibration intensity over the beam. The first method is the accelerometer array method using two accelerometers. The second method is the frequency response function method using the only one accelerometer. The third method is the reference accelerometer method using a fixed reference accelerometer and another moving accelerometer. Those methods have been used to measure the spatial distribution of in-plane vibration intensity over the beam. The results obtained with those methods have been compared with each other. The results have been compared with an input power. It showed that the frequency response function method and the reference accelerometer method as well as the accelerometer array method can be effectively used to measure the in-plane vibration intensity in beams.

It is well-known that non-metric digital cameras have to be calibrated for the close-range photogrammetry. But, the self-calibration is still not an easy task because it requires rather a large calibration site of accurate control points, multiple image acquisitions in different positions, and accurate image point measurements that are quite labor-intensive and time-consuming. Based on the premise, this study carried out check point accuracy analysis from self-calibration of different control point designs and photo combinations. The test results showed that the calibration using three photos covering three-dimensional control points produced high accuracy, but control points on a plane could attain the comparable accuracy with four photos including a 90-degree rotated photo. We then compared the target accuracy of on-site self-calibration using flat control points to that of laboratory-self calibration and observed comparable results.

The new types of phosphazene diagnostic membranes have been prepared for blood glucose measurements. The possible interferents in human blood were sorted into 4 different series and their effects on the glucose measurements were examined. In case of series I which indicates the lowest concentration, most of them did not show any serious effects on the blood glucose measurements, but only ascorbic acid (AA) showed 5~8% higher values compared to K/S values of the standard solution. In case of series II, all of four interferents showed 3~4% lower K/S values than those of plasma, but they showed consistent values by concentration variation. In case of series III, all of three interferents did not show any big differences compared to the standard solution. In case of series IV which indicates the highest concentration, two interferents showed 11~15% lower K/S values than the standard values, however they did not any serious effect on the blood glucose measurements.

The stability of DGPS signal in the DGPS service area was measured and the service availability according to the receiving signal strength was analyzed in this paper. Based on the effects of radio wave propagation in the seasons of winter and summer, daytime and night, the method to provide the DGPS service coverage was presented in this paper. The signal's strength of DGPS radio wave were measured at a constant distance from the DGPS reference station during a constant period. The propagation of DGPS radio wave is affected by status of ground conductivity, so the DGPS service area is dependant on the ground conductivity. To provide the stable service coverage, it is necessary to apply the adaptive power control for receiving signal's variations and the antenna design for alleviation of high elevation's radiation.

A time-pickoff circuit used for time measurement suffers from a timing error due to the dependence of the generation time of a timing pulse on the size of the input signal, i.e., time walk. In this study, a time-pickoff method, which employs an automatic gain control (AGC) circuit, is proposed for reducing the timing error. The AGC circuit is added to the input of the comparator, and it renders the sizes of input signals of the comparator relatively uniform. The performance of the proposed time-pickoff method is analyzed using the SPICE simulation, and experiments are performed to confirm the analytical results. The measured time walk is reduced to 2.000 ns by 65% for input signals with a dynamic range of 20 dB as compared to a typical leading-edge discriminator.

Although various methods for determination of damage threshold in rock have been suggested, clear damage thresholds were determined by some methods, but different thresholds were measured by other methods. We determined the damage thresholds in Hangdeung granite using all the methods suggested, and investigated the best methods, applicability and errors of each method. The crack initiation threshold and the crack damage threshold which are important in investigation of characteristics of crack development and failure were verified by field strength ratio method and long-term constant load test. The crack closure stress and the crack initiation stress were 57.5 MPa and 77.6 MPa, and the most exact values were yielded by crack volumetric strain. The secondary crack initiation stress was 90.6 MPa and AE event count and AE event count rate were the effective methods. The volumetric stiffness, AE event count and AE event count rate were the most effective methods for determination of crack coalescence threshold and crack coalescence stress was 110.3 MPa. The crack damage stress was 127.5 MPa and was measured correctly by volumetric stiffness and AE event count rate. The ratio between crack initiation stress and uniaxial compressive strength was 0.47 which was very similar with the FSR value of 0.46. The ratio between crack damage stress and uniaxial compressive strength was almost the same as the ratio between long-term strength and uniaxial compressive strength, indicating that the crack initiation stress and the crack damage stress measured were correct.
