A Smart phone is the one of the mobile devices widely used in our daily life. Moreover, various type of sensing data gathering from smart phone are effectively applicable to recognize of their users or smart phone status. Therefore, many smart phone applications based on sensor data have been actively developed. In this paper, we investigate an unexpected conditions recognition method using continuous sensing data from a single three-axis accelerometer. In addition, we implemented an application using the proposed method which provides the services notifying an abrupt changes of the smart phone conditions. By the experimented results, the application can be useful to protect the smart phone on the user's unaware conditions such as falling or a robbery case.

This paper presents the Application of Response Surface Method for Optimal Transfer Conditions of MLCC Alignment System. his paper is composed of two parts: (1) Testing performance verification of MLCC alignment system, compared with manual operation; (2) Applying response surface method to figuring out the optimal transfer conditions of MLCC transfer system. Based on the successfully developed MLCC alignment system, the optimal transfer conditions have been explored by using RSM. The simulations using $ADAMS^{(R)}$ has been performed according to the cube model of CCD. By using $MiniTAB^{(R)}$, we have established the model of response surface based on the simulation results. The optimal conditions resulted from the response optimization tool of $MiniTAB^{(R)}$ has been verified by being assigned to the prototype of MLCC alignment system.

Objective: This study developed a hierarchy of conditions of applications(devices), situations and functions which are applicable to gesture interface. Background: Gesture interface is one of the promising interfaces for our natural and intuitive interaction with intelligent machines and environments. Although there were many studies related to developing new gesture-based devices and gesture interfaces, it was little known which applications, situations and functions are applicable to gesture interface. Method: This study searched about 120 papers relevant to designing and applying gesture interfaces and vocabulary to find the gesture applicable conditions of applications, situations and functions. The conditions which were extracted from 16 closely-related papers were rearranged, and a hierarchy of them was developed to evaluate the applicability of applications, situations and functions to gesture interface. Results: This study summarized 10, 10 and 6 conditions of applications, situations and functions, respectively. In addition, the gesture applicable condition hierarchy of applications, situation and functions were developed based on the semantic similarity, ordering and serial or parallel relationship among them. Conclusion: This study collected gesture applicable conditions of application, situation and functions, and a hierarchy of them was developed to evaluate the applicability of gesture interface. Application: The gesture applicable conditions and hierarchy can be used in developing a framework and detailed criteria to evaluate applicability of applications situations and functions. Moreover, it can enable for designers of gesture interface and vocabulary to determine applications, situations and functions which are applicable to gesture interface.

In this paper, I describe the importance of matrix spraying conditions in imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) to obtain successful imaging results. My developed matrix application methodology, which is a "two-step matrix application" sequentially combined with matrix sublimation and spraying matrix solution can provide high reproducibility and high ion yield compared with a conventional direct spraying method. However, insufficient IMS results were obtained occasionally despite the two-step method. Therefore, I wanted to characterize the methodology to continuously provide high quality data. According to my results, the sublimation time was not a strict parameter, and the most important step was the first spraying condition. This means that the extraction conditions from the tissue section and co-crystallization of the matrix were the most important factors.

Stencil is used normally as a mask for solder pasting on pad of a printed circuit board (PCB). The objective of this study is to develop a stencil cutting system and determine the optimal conditions to make good-quality stencil by using a Nd:YAG laser. The effects of process parameters such as laser power, type of mask, gas pressure, cutting speed and pulse duration on the cut edge quality were investigated. In order to analyze the cut surface characteristics (roughness, kerfwidth, dross) optical microscopy, SEM microscopy and roughness measurements were used. As a result, the optimal conditions of cutting process parameters were determined, and the practical feasibility of the proposed system was also examined by using a commercial Gerber file for PCB stencil manufacturing.

This study was accomplished to develop a pneumatic granular applicator that can be attached to the conventional ride-on rice transplanter. Operating conditions of a metering device for the applicator were determined so as to obtain the required discharge rate of granules for field application. The shape and size of diffuser was selected for the applicator and the spacing between diffusers on a boom and the boom height were determined as an optimal application condition for uniform distribution. The diffuser spacing of 1m for the fertilizer and the diffuser spacing of 0.8m for the pesticide at the boom height over 0.8m were acceptable.

In metal forming, there are problems with recurrent geometric characteristics without explicitly prescibed boundary conditions. In such problems, so-called recurrent boundary conditions must be introduced. In this paper, as a practical application of the proposed method, the precision cold forging of a helical gear has been simulated by a three-dimensional rigid-plastic finite element method and compared with the experiment. The application of recurrent boundary conditions to helical gear forging analysis is proved to be effective and valid. the elastic stress analysis of the die for helical gear forging has been calculated by using the nodal force at the final stage obtained from the rigid-plastic finite element analysis. In order to obtain more precise gear products, the elastic analysis of the die after release of punch and the elastic spring-back analysis of product after ejection have been performed, and the final dimension of the computational product has been in good agreement with that of the experimental product.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to get basic user guidelines of safe and efficient bag-valve-mask application on patients having abnormal pathophysiological pulmonary conditions. Methods: This study was performed by pre-qualified 35 EMS junior and senior students. Participants were instructed to compress ambulatory bag randomly about half, one-third, one-fourth within different airway resistance and pulmonary compliance. Resultant tidal volume and pulmonary wedge pressures on RespiTranier monitor were analysed in relation to pulmonary physiologic index. Results: At least over half compression of bag guaranteed minimal tidal volume regardless of pulmonary conditions. There was no increase of pulmonary wedge pressure above the level of barotrauma on half compression at any pulmonary conditions. Conclusion: Assisted ventilation with ambulatory bag on patients with pathological pulmonary conditions should be over half compressed regardless of respiratory disease entity.

This paper presents an application of proportional-resonant (PR) current controllers in modular multilevel converter-high voltage direct current (MMC-HVDC) system under unbalanced voltage conditions. The ac currents are transformed and controlled in the stationary reference frame (${\alpha}{\beta}$-frame). Thus, the complex analysis of the positive and negative sequence components in the synchronous rotating reference frame (dq-frame) is not necessary. With this control method, the ac currents are kept balanced and the dc-link voltage is constant under the unbalanced voltage fault conditions. The simulation results based on a detailed PSCAD/EMTDC model confirm the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

In vertical construction joint, adhesives such as epoxy, acrylic, latex, etc. have been usually used for bonding fresh concrete to hardened concrete. In this study, performance of adhesives under various application conditions was investigated through tests for slant shear and flexural strength. From the results of the tests, it is found that superior bonding performance can be obtained under good surface preparation without adhesive when high strength concrete is used.
