Ultrasonic inspection method is more profitable than X-ray radiographic inspection in cost and effect of defect detection such as debond, damage, and it doesn't need special constructions. The method can also be a possible real time inspection with safety. This report explains 1)the experiment and analysis of ultrasonic property of solid propellant, 2)the inspection methods of propellant/liner debond by inside or outside inspection, and 3)the inspection methods of propellant microcrack by damage. From the results, it is possible to detect the defect of propellant/liner debond by inside or outside inspection. Futhermore, it can be possible to detect the propellant microcrack caused by damage using the ultrasonic attenuation.

최근 토요타 자동차의 대량 리콜 사태로 안전과 관련된 자동차 품질에 대한 관심과 중요성이 크게 부각되었다. 본 연구에서는 나날이 높아지고 있는 자동차 품질 기준과 생산 비용 절감, 공정 자동화 요구에 부응하기 위한 차체 저항 점 용접부 품질 검사 자동화 기술 개발을 위해 적용 가능한 센서들을 비교, 검토하였다. 알려진 비파괴 검사 방법은 초음파, 와전류, 방사선 검사법 등 다양한 방법들이 존재하지만, 이 연구에서는 생산 라인 현장 적용이 가능한 소형 센서들을 중심으로 검토 영역을 제한하였다. 검토된 비파괴 검사 방법은 총 5가지 종류로 종래의 수동 초음파 검사법, 집적된 탐촉자를 이용한 3차원 초음파 검사법, NAUT(Non-contact Air-coupled Ultrasonic Test), EMAT(EletroMagnetic Acoustic Test), 그리고 너겟 프로파일러$^{TM}$이다. 이 연구에서는 각 검사법의 원리와 장단점을 설명하고 생산 라인 적용에 필요한 필수 항목들에 대해 고찰하였다.

This paper is about vision system that exhibits automatic examination of the conditions of fuses and relay boxes using a camera. Proposed vision system is composed of three parts: image acquisition, vision algorithm, and user interface. The image acquisition part is composed of illumination and optics. The vision algorithmis the examining part, using the grabbed fuse box image. Lastly, user interface is divided into two parts, user interface for registering features of fuse box and user interface for examination operation.

Purpose: This study was designed to compare the relative accommodation, the accommodative facility, and the addition whose 40's initial presbyopia divided into five occupations (driver, official worker, housewife, field worker, teacher). Methods: We measured the values of near point convergence (NPC), positive relative accommodation (PRA), negative relative accommodation (NRA), accommodative facility, and addition. Results: Official worker group had lower PRA, higher NRA, and lower accommodative facility compared with them of the other groups. The average of addition was as follows: official worker > driver > field worker > housewife > teacher. Conclusions: Because the difference of working environment based on occupation affects the accommodative functions and addition, it is important to consider the patient's occupation when opticians measure the addition for near vision of initial presbyopia.

Over the past 10 years, STEAM education uprises to address student's low interest in and self-concept in comparison with their academic achievement in science, reacquaintance to enter schools of natural sciences or engineering. However, There is a paucity of empirical evidence revealing values and necessities of STEAM education in school. The purpose of this investigation is to develop steam education program making and using hands on sensor to experience new technology in school, to apply the program to 110 fourth graders, and to study the effect of the program. Pre- and post-test was used to measure level of student's scientific interest and attitude, scientific problem solving ability, scientific creative problem solving ability, personality test for children, satisfaction of school life. In conclusion, the result show that STEAM education improve every domain of the measurements.

Food safety accidents have been increasing by 2% over 5,000 cases every year since 2009. Most people know that the best method to prevent food safety accidents is a quick inspection, but there is a lack of inspection technology that can be used at the non-analytic level to food production and distribution sites. Among the recent on-site diagnostic technologies, the methods for testing gene-based food poisoning bacteria were introduced with the STA technology, which can range from sample to detection. If food safety information can be generated without forgery by directly inspecting food hazard factors by remote, unmanned, not human, pollution sources can be managed by predicting risks more accurately from current big-data and artificial intelligence technology. Since this information processing can be used on smartphones using the current cloud technology, it is judged that it can be used for food safety to small food businesses or catering services.

Flatness inspection of PC elements is normally conducted manually by inspectors at manufacturing sites. However, the manual inspection is error-prone and subjective, so it is necessary to develop a robust and efficient flatness measurement method. Recently, a few studies of laser scanner-based flatness inspection have been conducted. However, little attention on field applicability in terms of accuracy, time and cost has been paid. To tackle the limitation, this study aims to compare three sensing method including floor profiler, terrestrial laser scanner and total station for flatness inspection of PC elements. A series of experiments on two full-scale PC slabs were conducted and the results show that the laser scanning method is the most suitable for the PC elements flatness inspection in the aspects of accuracy, time and cost.

Monitoring the site of an underground construction wall is crucial to confirm the stability of the supports and ground due to excavation. In particular, it is essential to maintain the accuracy of a load cell gauge, which identifies the load of the support transmitted from the excavated ground. However, research on verification methods and regulations that can identify the accuracy of load cell gauges at construction sites is inadequate, which is a problem as load cell gauges are installed without proper performance inspections. In this study, performance tests were conducted by a complete investigation of load cell gauges sold in Korea and comparing them with foreign products to determine defect causes. In addition, the criteria for selecting a load cell gauge were presented, and the results of this study were considered to help select a highly reliable load cell gauge.

본 논문에서는 생산 현장에서 사람이 하고 있는 자동차 부품의 전수(全數) 검사 방법을 대체하기 위한 머신 비전 시스템의 개발 연구이다. 세계 자동차 생산업체간 활발한 합병 및 전략적 제휴로 인한 완성차 업체수의 감소는 부품 업체 간 경쟁을 심화시키고 있다. 외국 업체에 비하여 상대적으로 규모 의 영세성을 보이고 있는 국내 부품 생산 업체는 대규모 생산 설비 투자와 함께 생산 효율성을 증대시켜 국제적인 경쟁력을 갖추도록 하여야 한다. 생산 효율과 품질 향상을 위한 노력의 일환으로 플라스틱 압출 성형에서 생기는 여러 가지 불량품 유형을 PC를 기반한 머신 비전 시스템 (Machine Vision System)을 구축하여 생산된 부품을 실시간 검사하고 불량품을 분류 하는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 머신 비전 시스템에 사용된 소프트웨어는 NI-LabVIEW를 사용하였으며, LabVIEW Vision 이미지 함수를 사용하여 검사 프로그램의 개발하였다. 부품 검사에 걸리는 시간은 50ms 내로 완료되기 때문에 생산 부품의 실시간 검사에 적용 될 수 있으며, 검사 영역과 설정 값을 비전 시스템 운용자가 설정할 수 있도록 프로그램이 만들어 졌다.

The system developed inspects automatically defects existing on an inner surface of anodically treated aluminum cylinder-tubes. This system consists of automatic inspection software, and electronic endoscope and a conveyor moving device. By applying the optimal brightness conditions to searching for various defects on the inner surface of cylinder tube, the recognition rate of major defects, such as scratch, oxide and weld line reached 99%. If the present visual inspection process is replaced with the automatic defects inspection system, the physical fatigue of the operator could be reduced and the productivity could be increased. The automatic inspection system developed could also improve the quality of the products.
