R&D Strategic Planning plays a crucial role in determining success or failure of R&D. However, current automatic services for supporting the purpose merely provide fragmentary quantitative/qualitative analytics, and force domain experts to carry out further manual analysis by themselves. Thus, this study aims at automatically supporting R&D strategic planning with efficiency and effectiveness. To achieve the goal, we design major services in the viewpoint of the relationship between technology and R&D actor, which are essential elements in R&D. 'Trends and Predictions', 'Technology Levels', 'Relationship Paths', 'Roadmaps', and 'Competitors and Collaborators' services were designed and implemented on about 15 millions papers and patents. Future works will include the support of higher level in the hierarchy of strategic intelligence.

The barrel cam, which is a type of cylindrical cam, has been widely used as a part of index drive units for automatic manufacturing machines. The axis of rotation of the barrel cam is orthogonal to the axis of rotation of the follower. The index drive rotates or dwells depending on the cam profile, while the cam rotates with a constant velocity. Continuous sliding contact between the barrel cam and the follower surfaces causes wearing of the adhesive between them. This study shows that the contact force between two sliding bodies is responsible for the wear of the barrel cam in the paper-cup-forming machine. This contact force is calculated by using the multibody dynamics model of the paper-cup-forming machine. The analytical result is validated by comparing it to the actual wear spots on the real product.

In this era of changing system, we may learn lesson from newly developed Uniform Electronic Transation Act(UETA) in 1999. Korea has its counterpart as the Basic Electronic Transaction Act and Electronic Signature Act made by 1999. While UETA stresses on transaction law between individuals, that of Korean stresses on the role of government in electronic transaction. Both laws have the common definitions as electronic record, electronic signature, however, UETA has its own definitions such as automated transaction, computer program, electronic agent, information, information processing system, and security procedure. Especially, transferable record in section 16 is one of the most unique concept which Korean law does not provide. Korean government is planning to introduce electronic note in the near future, which will make unprecedented reform in Korean financial industry. Since Korean law does not have such a concept as electronic note, revision of the law is expected soon. Korean law has its specialty which puts stress on cyber mall, authentication agency, and consumer protection. In U.S., the interpretation of law by court is important when they have disputes according to common law traditon. Studies on cases on disputes in U.S. is needed most for Korean application.

In this paper, we developed the real-time automation program for the immunity test according to the determination of the EUT image, and analyzed the image of standard PC monitor and the monitor image affected by the electromagnetic field. The image change detection algorithm was realized for the real-time determination of the malfunction, and we attempted to obtain the consistent results for the electromagnetic immunity measurement. We showed the possibility to determine the immunity of the PC monitor and other equipment by performing the image change detection of EUT, and the experimental results for the EUT immunity determination of EMS (Electro-Magnetic Susceptibility, IEC 61000-4-3) are also proposed in line with the international standard and domestic trends.

An automatic combination and assembly system for phone-camera lens modules was developed. The system enables the assembly of the relative orientation of the individual lenses making up the lens module. Conventional assembly systems assemble a lens module from eight assembly units. The developed system reduces this number to half by combining each lens and a spacer into a single assembly unit. Also, the number of transfer stages for sequential assembly is minimized without increasing the assembly time. Therefore, high productivity and a footprint that is only about 25 % of that of a conventional assembly system can be realized. The system features a modular design to allow it to cope with rapid changes in the market. Only a few components, such as the picker and guide, need to be replaced for changing to a new assembly model.

Conventional monitoring method is used for evaluation of the reservoir and levee at the highest height sections. In recent years, automated measurement technology has been developed, and the measurement results are transmitted, collected and stored in real time into management office. Despite the development of real time monitoring technology, the measurement results are not used directly or indirectly with facility management at real time. Recently, as wireless sensor network measurement technology has been developed based on internet of things, this study proposed a real - time measurement and evaluation system based on wireless sensor network technology in the reservoir structure. As a result of the seepage analysis for the application, it was confirmed that the volumetric water content changes together with the change of the seepage line inside the embankment body according to the change of the water level of the embankment. In other words, the applicability of the measurement system with the volumetric water ratio set as the sensor node was verified.

In this study, the conceptual design of a tilt + stopped rotor type electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft was performed using design iteration. Based on Hyundai Motor's S-A1, the mission profile was defined using the concept of urban air mobility (UAM), and configuration design and aerodynamic analysis were performed using OpenVSP and XFLR5 software. After estimating the required power for the designed eVTOL, the required performance of the battery and the maximum take-off weight (MTOW) were calculated. . It was iteratively calculated using Microsoft Excel and Visual Basic Application, and a new electric motor weight estimation formula was derived. Also, the sensitivity analyses of each design variables of an eVTOL was performed using the automated program.

Because a product in the car industry has a short life cycle in recent years, the process planning and the manufacturing lines have to be changed frequently. Most of time, repositioning an existing facility and modifying used control information are faster than making completely new process planning. However, control information and control code such as PLC code are difficult to understand. Hence, industries prefer writing a new control code instead of using the existing complex one. It shows the lack of information reusability in the existing process planning. As a result, to reduce this redundancy and lack of reusability, we propose a SOS-Net modeling method. SOS-Net is a standard methodology used to describe control information. It is based on the Device Structure which consists of sensor information derived from device hardware information. Thus, SOS-Net can describe a real control state for automated manufacturing systems. The SOS-Net model is easy to understand and can be converted into PLC Code easily. It also enables to modify control information, thus increases the reusability of the new process planning. Proposed model in this paper plays an intermediary role between the process planning and PLC code generation. It can reduce the process planning and implementation time as well as cost.

Downhole seismic method is very economic and easy to operate because it uses only one borehole and simple surface source to obtain the shear wave velocity profile of a site. In this study, automatic shear wave source was developed for efficient downhole seismic testing. This source is motor-spring type and easy to control. It can lessen the labor of operator and the working time. Moreover, it can provide better and repetitive signals for data interpretation. By combining developed automatic source with automatic receiver system, PC based data acquisition system, advanced managing program, and semi-automatic downhole performing system were constructed. Through comparison test with manual source, advantages of automatic source were verified. Constructed semi-automatic downhole testing system including automatic shear wave source was applied to the soft soil site. The applicability and reliability were verified and the importance of automating testing system for obtaining reliable result was emphasized.

18년 물관리일원화 이후 인프라와 사람 중심으로부터 자연과 인간의 조화를 위한 환경·생태계의 자연성 회복으로의 물관리 패러다임 전환이 빠르게 이루어지고 있으며, 대규모 국책사업이후의 하천 관리에 있어서도 기존의 이수, 치수, 환경이라는 단순한 기능적 구분을 벗어나 보다 근본적이고 장기적인 대국민 서비스로의 전환을 도모하고 있다. 또한, ICBAM 등으로 정의되는 4차산업혁명 기반 기술의 접목이 거의 대부분의 분야에서 이루어지고 있는 것을 실질적으로 체감하는 시기가 도래하였다. 그러나, 하천 및 수자원 관리분야에서의 기술은 근대 엔지니어링의 기초가 되는 수로 건설 등으로부터 시발되어 사실상 가장 앞선 과학적 진보의 토대를 갖추었으나 최근의 기술적 트렌드를 잘 추종하지 못하는 것처럼 비추어 지는 것이 사실이다. 주된 이유로서 기후변화라는 광범위하고 장기적인 입력요소를 가진 하천관리 시스템의 특성상 불확실성의 추정 및 즉각적인 응답이 어려운 부분이 분명히 존재하지만, 실질적으로 여전히 해소되지 않는 부분은 하천의 기초자료 수집에 대한 효율성과 신뢰도가 낮은 것이라고 하겠다. 또한, 유역으로부터 댐-다기능보-하천으로 이어지는 의사결정을 위한 다양한 형태의 자료로부터 적절한 정보를 수집하는 체계(거버넌스의 문제이자 기술적/재정적 한계)가 확립되지 않은 점도 고려해야 할 것이다. 본 연구에서는 인공지능을 활용한 하천의 유량 예측 등을 위해 필요한 수자원 기초데이터의 근원적인 수집 및 관리상의 문제점에 대해서 검토하고자 하였으며, ARIMA, Kalman Filtering, MA 및 복합기법을 통한 자료처리 기법을 적용하여 상황에 맞게 오차 및 불확실성의 저감을 위한 방안을 찾고자 하였다. 또한, 이용자 중심의 하천 관리에 근접한다고 볼 수 있는 스마트워터시티 개념에서의 바람직한 하천관리 기법에 대해서 논의하고, 관련하여 근자에 개발한 하천의 물리적 해석 도구들에 대해서 적용 사례를 검토한다. 마지막으로, 지식기반의 하천관리 의사결정 플랫폼 개발을 위해서 기존의 기계학습을 통한 자동화된 의사결정에 부가하여 전문가와 시스템이 상호작용을 통해서 AI를 학습시켜 결정한 사항을 전문가의 의사결정에 참고하는 MCRDR기법의 적용의 적용 가능성과 도입 방향에 대해서 논의하였다.
