Most tasks of the large vertical or ceiling structures have been carried out by human power. Those tasks require us much operation costs and times, safety devices, etc. So the need of automation for those tasks have been rising. That automation needs a wall-climbing mobile vehicle. Most former researches are things about attachment devices and moving mechanisms. A wall-climbing mobile vehicle must be designed by a method different from the case of the vehicle of the horizontal environment. That is because gravity acts as a negative role on the stability of a wall-climbing vehicle. In this thesis, the particular shape characteristics of a wall-climbing mobile vehicle are derived by the wall-environment modeling. In addition, some design constraints of the permanent magnetic wheel as an attachment device was studied. According to those requirements and constraints, one specific wall-climbing mobile vehicle was designed and some experiments were made on the attachment ability of that vehicle.

A triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) is a device that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy, and has been considered as a substitute for continuous power supply due to its high performance, simple structure and eco-friendliness. Recently, it is important to develop a TENG using a non-toxic material in order to use it as a power source for wearable, attachable, and body-embeddable electronics. Here, we developed a human friendly TENG using polyvinyl chloride (PVC) gel containing acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), a non-toxic plasticizer. PVC gels were fabricated using various ratios of PVC and ATBC, and optimized by investigating dielectric properties, surface potential, output performance, and durability. The PVC gel based TENG generates output signals of 73 V and 4.3 μA, i.e., a 5-fold enhancement in the output power compared to pristine PVC-based TENG. In addition, the PVC gel can be stretched over 500% of strain. This study is expected to be helpful in the future development of non-toxic wearable TENG.

The purpose of this study was to develop a compression inner layer (CIL) that can be attached to dress shirts for men who have gynecomastia (male breast enlargement). For this, we developed shirts with CIL prototypes based on the functional, expressive, and aesthetic (FEA) consumer needs model. The user-centered design principle guided the design process. Based on size measurements, in-depth interviews, and an online survey, the design requirements for dress shirts with a CIL were determined, and the prototype was developed. The dress shirts were constructed of polyester and spandex mixed materials, while the CIL was made of thin mesh fabric knitted from 80% polyester and 20% spandex. A CIL prototype was developed with a front zipper fastening to hold the upper body tight and compress the breast area. The CIL was attached by connecting a strap with snap buttons to loops sewn into the shoulder line of the dress shirt. In the trial and sensory test, the prototype helped breast size decrease while meeting target consumer needs. The outcomes of this study provide necessary insights to develop garments for gynecomastia patients.

전자여권은 기존의 여권정보에 비접촉식 스마트 기능의 IC칩을 추가하여 바이오 정보를 탑재한 것으로 전자여권의 보안 위협으로부터 보호하기 위해 BAC, PA, AA, EAC 메커니즘을 사용하고 있다. 그러나 BAC 메커니즘에 사용되는 암호 키는 MRZ 값들의 조합으로 만들어 지기 때문에 MRZ 조합규칙을 알아낸 후 무차별 공격 프로그램을 사용하여 암호 해독이 가능한 단점이 있다. 본 논문은 전자여권 칩과 판독시스템간의 안전한 채널 형성 시 해시된 이미지 정보와 지문 정보를 이용하여 전자여권의 위 변조를 확인하고 타임스탬프 값을 통하여 효율성이 향상된 메커니즘을 제안하였다.

Recently, the LCD manufacturing industries try to maximize the productivity of LCD panels due to sharp increase in the market need of LCD display. Usually, the increase in manufacturing speed induces additional vibration of glasses and manufacturing machineries. This kind of vibration can induce bad effects on the manufacturing accuracy, and even can damage the glasses. The vibration signal of glass itself is very useful to predict the allowable maximum level of manufacturing speed. Therefore, it is necessary to measure the vibration of the glass itself and a very thin vibration measurement system attachable on the glass is needed. Since in some processes the glasses need to go through very thin gaps such as 2.5mm, We develop a glass vibration measurement system with the thickness of 1.3mm. The system measures the glass vibration using MEMS type accelerometers and store vibration data in a Nand-Flash memory. The performance of the develop system has been verified on a real LCD manufacturing line and the accuracy of vibration measurement is comparable with that of an accurate commercial vibration measurement system.

In order to reduce the lead-time and cost, recently the technology of rapid protoyping and manufacturing(RPM)has been widely used. Machining process is still considered as one of the effective RPM methods that have been developed and currently available in the industry. It also offers practical advantages such as precision and versatility. Some considerations are still required during the machining process. One of the most important points is fixturing. There should be an effective method of fixturing since the fixturing time depends on the complexity of geometry of the part to be machined. In this paper, the rapid manufacturing process has been developed combining machining with automatic filling. The proposed fixturing technique using automatic filling can be widely applicable to free surface type of product such as a fan. In the filling stage, remeltable material is chosen for the filling process. An automatic set-up device attachable to the table of the machine has also been developed. The device ensures the quality during a series of machining operations. This proposed process has shown to be a useful method to manufacture the required products with the reduced the response-time and cost.

데이터 주소의 계수를 위한 하드웨어 설계가 없는 본 노이만(von Neuman) 개념(SISD)의 컴퓨터에서 데이터의 주소지정은 소프트웨어적으로 수행된다. 그러므로 벡터 데이터 요소들의 주소지정은 인덱싱 기법에 의해 그 요소 수만큼 해당 변수들을 만들어서 사용해야 한다. 이것은 데이터 계수기 없이 명령어 계수기, 즉 PC(program counter)만 하드웨어로 설계되기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 중앙처리장치 외부에 외형적 구조와 크기를 갖는 단위 벡터의 요소를 액세스하는 하드웨어 유닛의 설계를 제안한다. 벡터 처리는 고속처리가 전제되기 때문에 파이프라인 처리기법(SIMD)으로 설계되어야 한다. 제안한 방법은 시뮬레이션을 통하여 성능 검증을 하였으며, 실험 결과 동일한 프로세싱 유닛을 가지는 벡터 머신 아키텍쳐보다 $12-30\%$ 정도 우수한 성능을 내는 것을 확인하였다.

In order to develop an precision aerial pesticide application system to be attached to an unmanned helicopter which can be applied to small lots of land, this study analyzed the flowing and spraying characteristics of the spray droplets by the main rotor downwash by setting the application conditions at the flight altitude of 3 m, the diameter of main rotor of 3.1 m, the boom length of around 2.8 m, and the spraying rate of 8 L/ha. The results of this study are summarized below. Through analysis of the covering area ratio of the spray droplets by main rotor downwash by nozzle type, boom with tilt angle and height, it was found that the covering area ratio of the twin flat-fan nozzle of around 25% was more uniform than other types of nozzle, also boom with $10^{\circ}$ tilt angle and spraying height of 3 m was shown to be the appropriate conditions for aerial application of pesticides. It was found that the nozzle position to minimize the scattering loss of spray droplets due to vortex phenomenon at both ends of the main rotor was around 10 cm from the end of the main rotor. An application test for the aerial pesticide application system attached to the HUA-ACEI unmanned helicopter developed by the Rural Development Administration showed that the range of covering area ratio of the spray droplets was 10-25%, and the spraying width was approximately 7 m when over 10% of covering area ratio was considered for valid spraying.

A swirl chamber type diesel engine attachable to 18 kW agricultural tractors was improved to reduce exhaust emissions. Compression ratio and throat area ratio of the combustion chamber were varied to determine optimum combustion conditions. Tests were composed of full load and 8-mode emission tests. Compression ratio was fixed as 21, but the swirl chamber volume was increased by 3.8%. Output power, torque, specific fuel consumption, exhaust gas temperature, and smoke level were not considerably different for compression ratios of 21.5 (reference condition) and 21 (test condition), while NOx, HC, CO and PM levels for the compression ratio of 21 were decreased by 11%, 46%, 28%, 11%, respectively, from those for the compression ratio of 21.5. The tests were also conducted with a compression ratio of 22 and 4.3% increased chamber volume. Output power, torque, exhaust gas temperature and smoke level were greater, while specific fuel consumption was less for the compression ratio of 22 than those for the compression ratio of 21.5. Increase of compression ratio decreased HC and CO levels by 24%, 39%, but increased NOx and PM levels by 24%, 39%. Based on these results, a compression ratio of 21 was selected as an optimum value. Then, full load tests with the selected compression ratio of 21 were carried out for different throat ratios of 1.0%, 1.1%, 1.2%. Output power and torque were greatest and smoke was lowest when throat area ratio was 1.1%, which satisfied the target values of specific fuel consumption (less than 272 g/$kW{\cdot}h$) and exhaust gas temperature (less than $550^{\circ}C$). Therefore, a throat area ratio of 1.1% was selected as an optimum value.
