Tilting trains are currently in operation in 13 countries around the world. With the advances in tilting technology, verification of economic efficiency, and changes in economic situations, the introduction of tilting trains will rapidly spread across the globe. The measurement system is composed of the industrial computers installed in the console and the measurement racks mounted on each car. It is utilized to accumulate the data by the communication card and the optical cable. The optical cable and power cable are coupled at the connector located in joint of train to make easy to disconnect car each other. The signal conditioner is designed to choose and to extend the channel for each sensor readily. The sensor measurement rack has adopted as decentralization method. It is installed in each car to minimize the cable length. In also, it is manufactured based on 19"rack and covered to protect the cable. In this study, the programs for measurement and analysis were also developed to understand the traction system characteristics of TTX. Using this measurement system, we studied that acceleration test, re-powering test, and gradually powering test. The acceleration performance of TTX is 1.735 km/h/s, and it is inner standard value. The notch test result from 1 to 7 steps, DC link voltage is under standard value, and the output electric current of inverter is controlled normally. From the test results, we saw the performances of the traction systems are normal.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze 'response time', 'peak response time' and 'overshoot value' for each muscle by applying the EMG signal to the vehicle response in ISO 7401 and to quantify the response of the driver according to vehicle characteristics by comparing vehicle characteristics and muscle responses of the driver. Background: The Open-loop test defined in international standards ISO 7401 is the only method for evaluating the performance of the vehicle. However, this test was focused only on mechanical responses, not driver's ones. Method: One skilled male driver(22 yrs. experience) was participated in this experiment to measure muscle activities of the driver in transient state. Then the seven muscle signals were applied to calculate 'response time', 'peak response time', and 'overshoot value'. Results: In the analyses of the EMG data, the effects of vehicle type and muscle were statistically significant on the 'response time' and 'peak response time'. Also, the effects of vehicle type, muscle, and lateral acceleration level were statistically significant on the 'overshoot value' in this study. According to the analyses of the vehicle motion data, vehicle motion variable(LatAcc, Roll, YawVel) was statistically significant on the 'response time' and vehicle type, vehicle motion variable, and lateral acceleration level were statistically significant on the 'peak response time', respectively. Conclusion: In the analyses of the 'response time' and 'overshoot value', the data of muscle activities(EMGs) was better index that could evaluate the vehicle characteristic and performance than the data of vehicle motion. In case of peak response time, both EMG and vehicle motion data were good index. Application: The EMGs data from a driver might be applicable as index for evaluation of various vehicle performances based on this study.

차량의 변속기어가 체결된 주행 상태에서 가속페달을 방치하는 경우 연료차단 주행이 시작된다. 적극적인 연료차단 주행을 활용하면 차량 연비가 개선된다. 본 연구에서는 차량의 속도, 가속도, 도로구배를 입력데이터로 사용하여 연료차단 주행 여부를 예측할 수 있는 딥러닝 기법을 제안하였다. 약 12km 정도의 도로주행을 통해 측정한 9600개의 데이터에 은닉층 3~10개, 매개변수 10~20개의 딥러닝 연산법을 적용하여 연료차단 주행여부를 예측하였다. 연산 결과, 렐루함수를 활성화함수로 적용하고 은닉층 7개, 매개변수 10개인 경우 정확도 84.5% 수준으로 예측할 수 있었다. 입력데이터인 속도, 가속도, 도로구배의 변화율이 연료소모율 데이터의 변화율에 비해 큰 것이 오차의 원인으로 판단된다. 따라서 입력데이터 정규화 과정을 통해 정확도를 높일 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 본 연구의 특징은 차량의 연료분사 인젝터나 OBD 데이터를 사용하지 않고 GPS 등에서 쉽게 측정할 수 있는 데이터에 딥러닝을 적용한 방식이다. 또한 연산량이 적어 본 연구에서 제안한 방식으로 친환경 경제운전에 적용하기 용이할 것으로 기대된다.

The Terra-Scope system is an affordable 4-D down-hole seismic monitoring system based on independent, microprocessor-controlled sensor Pods. The Pods are nominally 50 mm in diameter, and about 120 mm long. They are expected to cost approximately $6000 each. An internal 16-bit, extremely low power MCU controls all aspects of instrumentation, eight programmable gain amplifiers, and local signal storage. Each Pod measures 3-D acceleration, tilt, azimuth, temperature, and other parametric variables such as pore water pressure and pH. Each Pod communicates over a standard digital bus (RS-485) through a completely web-based GUI interface, and has a power consumption of less than 400 mW. Three-dimensional acceleration is measured by pure digital force-balance MEMS-based accelerometers. These accelerometers have a dynamic range of more than 115 dB and a frequency response from DC to 1000 Hz with a noise floor of less than $30ng_{rms}/{\surd}Hz$. Accelerations above 0.2 g are measured by a second set of MEMS-based accelerometers, giving a full 160 dB dynamic range. This paper describes the system design and the cooperative shared-time scheduler implemented for this project. Restraints accounted for include multiple data streams, integration of multiple free agents, interaction with the asynchronous world, and hardened time stamping of accelerometer data. The prototype of the device is currently undergoing evaluation. The first array will be installed in the spring of 2006.

Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) gradually becomes a technique for ensuring the health and safety of civil infrastructures and is also an important approach for the research of the damage accumulation and disaster evolving characteristics of civil infrastructures. It is attracting prodigious research interests and the active development interests of scientists and engineers because a great number of civil infrastructures are planned and built every year in mainland China. In a SHM system the sheer number of accompanying wires, fiber optic cables, and other physical transmission medium is usually prohibitive, particularly for such structures as offshore platforms and long-span structures. Fortunately, with recent advances in technologies in sensing, wireless communication, and micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS), wireless sensor technique has been developing rapidly and is being used gradually in the SHM of civil engineering structures. In this paper, some recent advances in the research, development, and implementation of wireless sensors for the SHM of civil infrastructures in mainland China, especially in Dalian University of Technology (DUT) and Harbin Institute of Technology (HIT), are introduced. Firstly, a kind of wireless digital acceleration sensors for structural global monitoring is designed and validated in an offshore structure model. Secondly, wireless inclination sensor systems based on Frequency-hopping techniques are developed and applied successfully to swing monitoring of large-scale hook structures. Thirdly, wireless acquisition systems integrating with different sensing materials, such as Polyvinylidene Fluoride(PVDF), strain gauge, piezoresistive stress/strain sensors fabricated by using the nickel powder-filled cement-based composite, are proposed for structural local monitoring, and validating the characteristics of the above materials. Finally, solutions to the key problem of finite energy for wireless sensors networks are discussed, with future works also being introduced, for example, the wireless sensor networks powered by corrosion signal for corrosion monitoring and rapid diagnosis for large structures.

본 연구는 신호 교차로에서 대형 화물차의 정지로 인해 야기되는 온실가스 배출과 교차로 효율 저하를 완화하기 위해 좌회전 현시의 대형 화물차 대상 우선신호 알고리즘을 제안하고 효과를 분석한다. 대형 화물차의 진입 속도와 좌회전 속도를 고려한 녹색신호 연장 기법을 적용하며, 우선신호 제공으로 인해 발생할 수 있는 일반차량의 지체 증가를 완화하기 위해 두 가지 보상 전략을 수립하여 비교한다. 제안된 알고리즘의 효과를 분석하기 위해 PARAMICS를 이용한 시뮬레이션 분석을 수행하며 Comprehensive Modal Emissions Model (CMEM)을 이용하여 온실가스 배출량을 산정하였다. 실제 교통망의 3지 신호교차로를 대상으로 분석한 결과 비첨두시에는 대형 화물차에 능동적 보상 전략을 통해 지속적으로 우선권을 부여하는 것이 온실가스 및 연료소모량 감축에 효과가 있는 것으로 분석되었으며, 대형 화물차의 정지 감소로 인해 총통행시간도 개선되는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과로부터 제안된 알고리즘은 교통량이 많지 않은 공단 입구의 좌회전 현시에 효과적으로 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted at an automobile assembly line located in Kyonggi-do, Korea from January 16 to February 28, 1995. The purposes of this study were to assess worker exposures to hand-arm vibration and the performance of gloves for reduction of vibration. The exposure to vibration was measured using to the ISO 5349(1986) method. Vibration acceleration and frequency spectra for each tool were determined on-line replicating actual working conditions and analyzed together with exposure time for evaluating individual worker exposure. Eight pneumatic hand tools, 60 workers exposured to hand-arm vibration, and three pairs of gloves were involved in this study. Results are summarized as follows. 1. Dominant frequencies of vibration for all tools(n=8) measured in this study ranged from 250 Hz to 800 Hz. 2. There was no significant correleration between dominant frequencies and free running speed (p>0.05). 3. Total predicted exposure times of using impact, hammer type did not exceed 40 minutes, but metal finish task, using grinder and sander exceeded 40 minutes. Total exposure time affected significantly the frequency-weighted, 4 hr equivalent acceleration. 4. Predicted prevalence and observed exposure period data were compared in workers(n=60), according to ISO 5349. In this results, 23(50.0 %) and 24(48.07 %) persons exceeded the mean latency periods for vibration-induced white finger(VWF) at 10 % (n=46) and 50 % (n=52) standards, respectively. On the basis of ISO equation, mean latent periods for VWF were 3.23, 4.72 years at 10 %, 50 % standards, respectively. 5. Reduction of vibration by gloves was evaluated. Since impact pneumatic tools produced low frequency vibrations, conventional gloves did not provide any protection. Gloves A and C amplify somewhat the signal at frequency below 400 Hz; the attenuation increases progressively by frequency to reach 18 dB ($7.94{\times}10^{-6}m/s^2$) at 1,000 Hz, slightly worsening Glove B did not provide any protection and made the situation slightly worse. However, since they make the hands warm, the occurrence of vibration-induced white fingers may be reduced.

본 연구에서는 3축 가속도 측정을 위한 LSM을 개발하고 가변 진폭을 이용하여 걸음수 검출 정확도를 향상시킨 가변 진폭 임계값 알고리즘을 설계하였다. 테스트 프로토콜에 따라 실험하여 수집한 x, y, z 값을 SVM(Signal Vector Magnitude) 알고리즘을 사용하여 하나의 에너지값($E_t$)으로 변환하고 Peak 데이터 검출 알고리즘과 고정 Peak 임계값을 사용하여 평균 99%이상의 정확도로 걸음수를 검출하였다. 그러나 검출한 걸음이 정확한 걸음임을 증명하기 위해 에너지값($E_t$)의 진폭 크기로부터 고정 진폭 임계값을 구하고 노이즈를 필터링 한 결과 걸음수 검출 오차율이 증가하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 오차율을 줄이기 위하여 고정 진폭 임계값이 아닌 데이터를 관찰하여 적응적으로 변화하는 가변 진폭 임계값 알고리즘을 설계하였다. 가변 진폭 임계값 알고리즘을 적용한 결과, 걸음수 검출의 평균 정확도는 샘플링 주기 10Hz에서 평균 98.9%, 20Hz에서는 99.6%로 높아졌다.
