  • This paper proposes a new scheme to obtain enhanced 3D shape information rapidly for WLPSI(White Light Phase Shifting Interferometry). WLPSI is a convenient method to measure the height of the micro products. First we propose an effective method of limiting search interval for detecting the peak of the visibility function in order to obtain 3D shpae information rapidly. Second we propose an automatic base level decision method basad on image processing and a correction algorithm using the least square approximation method to overcome the global tilt problem of the conventional WLPSI algorithms. Third we propose an adaptive filtering method to remove the distortion known as bat-wing effect which appears near the step discontinuity. Experimental results show that the proposed overall technique is fast and provides more enhanced 3D shape information compared with the conventional WLPSI algorithms.

  • This paper presents design methods of a fuzzy controller and an operator model for a wire-driven heavy material lifting system helping human workers. The wire-driven heavy material lifting system is a kind of human-assistive systems in which a human is involved in the control loop. Thus, human's control characteristics and requirement of reducing worker's force to lift a heavy material are considered in the design process of the proposed fuzzy controller. An automatic weight measurement algorithm during the early stage of lifting is also introduced. Finally, the effectiveness and performance of the proposed system are proved by experiments.

  • Although navigation systems and automatic identification technologies are in use for nautical safety of ocean vessels, ship collisions are increasing due to the growing number of overseas transportations. Since these accidents are mostly caused by the watch officers and crews' human mistakes, it is essential to develop a new set of systems to prevent such misfortunes. Therefore, we suggest a control and management system which monitors crews in order to conduct secure on-board navigation and nautical safety. We also materialized a mobile terminal system and portable device for the crews to check the status of the ship, and we designed a platform for an integrated surveillance system to assure a harmless voyage. Lastly, we attested the mutual connections of integrated safety-related data.

  • The Smart plug is a device that connects between the outlet and the product at home, and it is an IoT type device that can drive energy saving and transmit information to the outside by power on / off control function and power measurement function. In this case, a smart plug that incorporates deep learning of intelligence technology that allows people to learn how to think about a computer, automatically classifies a product as it operates, and automatically tests the operating status of the washing machine by using input AC current pattern. Through this study, even if the product does not function as IoT, it can classify product type and operation state by smart plug connection alone, so we can draw a new paradigm of life pattern and energy saving in one family.

  • Airborne Lidar (light detection and ranging) can be an effective alternative in forest inventory to overcome the limitations of conventional field survey and aerial photo interpretation. In this study, we attempt to develop methodologies to identify individual trees and to estimate tree height from airborne Lidar data. Initially, digital elevation model (DEM) data representing the exact ground surface were generated by removing non-ground returns from the multiple-return laser point clouds, obtained over the coniferous forest site of rugged terrain. Based on the canopy height model (CHM) data representing non-ground layer, individual tree heights are extracted through pseudo-grid method and moving window filtering algorithm. Comparing with field survey data and aerial photo interpretation on sample plots, the number of trees extracted from Lidar data show over 90% accuracy and tree heights were underestimated within 1.1m in average at two plantation stands of pine (Pinus koraiensis) and larch (Larix leptolepis).

  • Fish ages are critical information in fish stock assessments because they are required for age-structure models such as virtual population analysis and stochastic catch-at-age models, whose outputs include recruitment strengths, a spawning stock size (abundance or biomass), and the projection of a fish population size in future. However, most countries other than the developed countries have not identified ages of fish caught by fisheries or surveys in a consistent manner for a long time (e.g.,>20 years). Instead, data about fish body sizes (e.g., lengths) have been well available because of ease of measurement. To infer age compositions of fish in a target group using fish length data, we intended to improve the length frequency analysis (LFA), which Schnute and Fournier had introduced in 1980. Our study was different in two ways from the Schnute and Fournier's method. First we calculated not only point estimates of age compositions but also the uncertainty in those estimates. Second, we modified LFA based on the von Bertalanffy growth model (vB-based model) to allow both individual-to-individual and cohort-to-cohort variability in estimates of parameters in the vB-based model. For illustration, we used data about lengths of Korean mackerel Scomber japonicas caught by purse-seine fisheries from 2000-2016.

  • Citrus fruit (Citrus unshiu Marc) were stored in the facillity controlled with a microprocessor-based storage controller, and the respiration rate and weight loss of fruits were measured with the infrared gas analyzer and the strain gauge load cell. The storage conditions and measuring intervals were set by the keyboard of personal computer. The interfacing cicuitry between the computer and Z-80 microprocerssor was built with peripheral Interfacing It chips 6821 and 8255. The data measured were saved to a data file for recording and further analysis. When the fresh and bruised fruits were subjected to the storage condition for 4 days at 20 C, the respiration rate of the fresh one showed a stable value of 3-5ml $CO_2/kg$ h throughout the storage period while the bruised one exihibited an abruptly increased rate after 50 hours. And the weight loss recorded about 5% during the storage.

  • A procedure for computing total suspended sediment load is presented based on a single point-integrated sample, a power velocity distribution, and Laursen's sediment concentration distribution equation. The procedure was tested with field data from the Rio Grande River. Computed concentrations agreed well with depth-integrated measurements corrected for unmeasured load using nominal values of $\beta$, $\kappa$ and w. Even better agreement was obtained when site-specific data were used to define the x and z exponents of the velocity and concentration distributions. The difference between total suspended load computed using a single measurement and this procedure and conventional computations based on depthintegrated measurements is well within sampling error. There are major advantages in estimating total suspended load using a single time-integrated suspended-sediment point sample. Less field time is required; sampling costs are greatly reduced; and sampling can be more frequent and better timed to measure the changing sediment load. Single-point sampling makes automatic sampling procedures more feasible.

  • 기존 보를 활용하여 유량측정에 이용하는 방법은 보의 통제 특성을 이용한 것이다. 유량과 수위를 병행 측정하여 얻은 자료를 활용해 수위-유량관계를 개발하는 것이다. 이 방법은 간단하면서도 정확도가 높은 방법이다. 수위-유량관계가 개발되면 별도의 측정을 수행할 필요 없이 수위계 측정값으로 유량이 계산되기 때문이다. 물론 주기적인 수위-유량관계 검증은 반드시 필요하다. 이런 수위-유량관계를 이용한 기존 보 활용은 매우 유용한 방법 중 하나이다. 하지만 이런 기존 보를 활용해 유량을 계산하는 방법은 몇 가지 단점을 포함한다. 첫째, 통제 특성을 이용하는 모든 측정 구조물은 측정한계 조건이 있다. 즉, 보 마루에 한계류가 발생하지 않는 수위 이상으로 높아지면 보의 통제 특성이 소멸되고 수위-유량관계나 유량공식은 의미가 없어진다. 둘째, 유량측정 구조물의 가장 큰 문제점 중 하나가 토사퇴적이다. 특히 기존 보의 경우 토사가 퇴적되면 보 상류의 저류용량이 줄어 보의 통제 기능을 상실하게 된다. 이런 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 보마루를 높인다거나 정기적인 준설을 하는 방법이 있다. 장기적인 변화에 대응하는 것이지만 이런 조치는 임시방편일 뿐이다. 이런 문제를 해결하기 위해 연구하게 된 방법이 보마루에서 직접 유속측정을 하는 것이다. 그리하면 통제특성을 이용한 수위-유량관계가 필요 없게 된다. 이때 보마루에서 직접 유속측정을 하기 위해서 유속측정 센서를 이용한다. 유속측정센서는 도플러방식을 이용한 초음파 유속센서로써 uplooking 방식으로 보마루에 고정시켜 이용한다. 이런 센서는 관수로에서 유량을 측정하기 위해 많이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구를 위해 초음파 센서를 이용해 실험 수로에서 유속측정과 유량환산 결과를 비교해 보았고 실제 시험하천에서도 설치하여 적용해 보았다. 보마루라는 안정된 단면을 이용하여 유속을 직접 측정하는 방법은 앞서 언급했던 수위-유량관계를 이용한 기존 보 활용법상 단점도 극복할 수 있다. 즉 통제 특성과는 관계없이 측정할 수 있는 수심 범위에만 들어가게 되면 항상 측정이 가능하고 상류의 토사퇴적에도 영향을 전혀 받지 않는다. 설치한 후 센서가 파손되지 않고 관리만 잘 된다면 유량측정시 편리하고 정확하게 결과를 얻을 것으로 판단된다.
