Piezoelectric gyroscopes are the devices to measure angular rotational velocity of a system with respect to an inertial frame of reference means of the Coriolis principle. Most of current piezoelectric gyroscopes detect rotational velocity about a single axis of rotation. This paper describes development of a new dual axial gyroscope made out of the piezoelectric ceramic, PZT, which can overcome the limitation of the current single axial type. The validity of the new structure is checked through finite element analysis. Based on the design, an experimental sample of the sensor is fabricated and its performance is discussed in comparison with the theoretical expectation. The resutls show that the present gyroscope is capable of measuring the rotational velocity over two orthogonal axes simultaneously with good enough sensitivity and distinction between the two axial components of the rotation.

Purpose: We wanted to evaluate the relationship between the clinical outcomes and cuff integrity after open rotator cuff repair and we wanted to analyze the causes of rotator cuff retear. Materials and Methods: 78 patients who underwent open rotator cuff repair were enrolled from 2004 to 2006. All the patients were observed for a minimum follow-up of 12 months and they were evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The clinical outcomes were accessed by dividing the patients into the retear group and the intact group. The groups were also compared to analyze the cause of rotator cuff retear according to the preoperative tear size, the symptom duration, and so on. Results: The clinical outcome of the retear group (n=22) was improved significantly after operation (p<0.001, p<0.001), but the muscle power was not improved significantly (p=0.099, p=0.243). More retears were found in the patients who had a larger preoperative tear (p<0.001) and the symptom duration of the retear group was longer (p=0.027). Conclusion: Although there were retear after rotator cuff repair, the clinical outcomes were improved. Yet the muscle power of the supraspinatus and external rotator were not improved significantly. There were more retears for the cases that had a larger preoperative tear size and a longer duration of symptoms.

To study reliability and validity of PWI, this newly developed self-administered questionnaire which measures stress, was given to medical students. All respondent(133) were followed 4 weeks later and 92 were retested. Cronbach's $\alpha$ coefficient of data was 0.93. Test-retest reliability measured by Pearson's correlation coefficient was 0.72(P<0.01). Exploratory factor analysis(EFA) performed by principal axis factor method without iteration and by varimax rotation explored 13 principal components(eigenvalues > 1). After exploring 4 factor structure according to previous study results, factor 1 showed good agreement but other factors did not. Confirmatory factor analysis(CFA) showed poor fit of 4 factor model to data. In the further study, it may be considered to model that has unidimensional factor structure.

자기베어링의 회전정밀도에 영향을 미치는 인자로 PWM 전력증폭기, 위치 센서 등과 같은 자기베어링 구성 장치의 동특성 및 정밀도, 시스템의 정확한 모델링, 제어기법, 런아웃 등이 있다. 본 연구에서는 능동 자기베어링을 제어하기 위해 자기베어링의 PWM 전력증폭기와 회전축을 모델링하고 이를 바탕으로 능동 자기베어링 제어를 위한 PID 제어기를 구성하였으며, 변위 센서의 부착위치 및 회전축의 진원도의 영향으로 발생하는 주기적인 런아웃 요소를 첨가하여 런아웃의 영향을 확인하였으며, 런아웃 (Runout)에 의해 발생하는 에러(Error)를 효과적으로 제어하여 자기베어링의 제어 정밀도를 향상시키기 위한 방법으로 기본적인 PID 제어기에 최소평균자승(Least Mean Square, LMS) 알고리즘을 적용한 적응 피드포워드 제어기를 구성하여 자기베어링의 능동 제어에서 발생하는 주기적인 런아웃을 효과적으로 제어할 수 있음을 MATLAB을 통한 시뮬레이션을 통해 확인하였다.

This paper investigates the effect of the rotational motion of a driving fluid generated by a rotational motion device at the inlet of a driving nozzle for a gas-liquid ejector, which is the main device used for ozonated ship ballast water treatment. An experimental apparatus was constructed to study the pressure and suction flow rate of each port of the ejector according to the back pressure. Experimental data were acquired for the ejector without rotational motion. Based on the data, a finite element model was then developed. The rotational motion of the driving fluid could improve the suction efficiency of the ejector based on the CFD model. Based on the CFD results, structure optimization was performed for the internal shape of the rotation induction device to increase the suction flow rate of the ejector, which was performed using the kriging technique and a metamodel. The optimized rotation induction device improved the ejector efficiency by about 3% compared to an ejector without rotational motion of the driving fluid.

This paper proposes slippage and rotation sensing method in tactile image of robot griper. To overcome the demerits of inaccurate taxel positional sensing generated by previous moment method and edge ＆ line method according to constraints of taxet number changing or minimum taxel number, the proposed method classified the sensing method into two classes such as pixel status analysis and decision factor determination. The decision factor determines taxel threshold for filtering and sensing method choice based on moment method and edge ＆ line method. Computer simulations and experiment result show that the proposed method enhances the slippage and rotation sensing than previous methods for tactile image.

The nonlinear behavior of a connection has an influence on the behavior (the $P-\Delta$ effect) and the stability of a steel unbraced frame when a semi-rigid connection is applied as a beam-to-column connection. Therefore, the effects of a connection's non-linear behavior on the behavior and stability of a steel unbraced frame were investigated using second-order inelastic analysis, after which the main influence factors and their behavioral tendencies were studied. The study results showed that the nonlinear behavior of a connection directly affects the stability of a steel unbraced frame, and that the main influence factors are the rotational stiffness of the connection and the location of a semi-rigid connection.
