In order to minimize ac mutual coupling, the auxiliary electrode are located at a right angle in measuring ground impedance. In case that the measurement space is limited, the alternative method is employed. At that time, it is necessary to investigate the measurement errors due to ac mutual coupling and earth mutual resistance in measuring the ground impedances. 'This paper presents the measurement accuracy according to the location of the current and potential auxiliary electrodes in measuring ground impedance of vertically or horizontally buried ground electrode. The measurement errors due to ac mutual coupling were evaluated Consequently, the effect of ac mutual coupling on the measurement accuracy for horizontally buried ground electrode is greater than that for vertically buried ground electrode. Measurement errors due to ac mutual coupling is the largest when the current and potential auxiliary electrodes are located in parallel. The 61.8[%] rule is inappropriate in measuring ground measurement. Theoretically, in case that the angle between the current and potential auxiliary electrodes is 90$[^{\circ}]$, there is no ac mutual coupling. If it is not possible to route the current and potential auxiliary electrodes at a right angle with limitation of measurement space, the location of these electrodes with an obtuse angle is preferred to that with an acute angle in reducing the measurement errors due to ac mutual coupling.

The strain measurement of the panel in the sheet metal forming is essential work which provides experimental data needed to die design, process design, and product inspection. To measure efficiently the complex geometry strain, the 3-dimensional automative strain measurement system, which has high accuracy in theory, but has some 3∼5% errors in practice, is often used. The object of this study is to develop the error compensation technology to eliminate the strain, errors resulted when formed panels are measured using an automated strain measurement system. To achieve the study object, the position error calibration method correcting coordinates of the grid node recognized by a camera using error functions is suggested. Then the position errors were found by calculating the difference in the position of the cube node between real coordinates and measured coordinates in toms of node coordinates and the error calibration equations were derived by regressing the position errors. In order to show the validation of the suggested position error calibration method, finite element analysis and current calibration method was performed for the initial-blankformed.

In this paper, we proposed measurement error reduction technique for the semiconductor device DC characteristic measurement system. Implemented system is composed of 4 SMUs, 2 VSUs, and 2 VMUs. Various efforts in hardware and software have been made to reduce the measurement errors due to the leakage current in measurement circuits. Internal and external sources of errors in measurement system especially in pA range measurement have been identified and removed. Experimental results show that the implemented system can be measure the DC characteristic of semiconductor devices in pA level.

Faults due to salt damage prevent the provision of stable power supply because they affect large areas and require much time and man power for recovery. Korea, three sides of which are surrounded by sea, is especially exposed to the impact of sea winds and typhoons. Therefore, salt damage to power facilities is one of the greatest problems of Korea's power system. To prevent salt damage pollution of insulators, the salt damage deposit on the insulators is regularly measured, and the insulators are washed when their salt damage deposits are expected to reach a critical level. When salt is detected on the insulators, however, errors are likely to occur according to different workers and environments. Therefore, a leakage current measurement method was proposed in this study to check the salt damage pollution level and reduce these errors.

In this paper, we studied a vibration problem that is critical and common to most precision measurement systems. For micro mechanical part measurements, results obtained from the vision-based precision measurement system may contain errors due to the vibration. In order to defeat this generic problem, for the current study, a PC based image processing technique was used first, to assess the effect of the vibration to the precision measurement and second, to develop an in-situ calibration algorithm that automatically compensate the measurement results in real time. We used a set of stereoscopic CCD cameras to acquire the images for the dimensional measurement and the reference measurement. The mapping function was obtained through the in-situ calibration to compensate the measurement results and the statistical analysis for the actual results is provided in the paper. Based on the current statistical study, it is expected to obtain high precision results for the micro measurement systems.

In this paper, we proposed calibration techniques to improve measurement accuracy in the characteristic analysis system for semiconductor devices. Systematic errors can be reduced using proposed calibration techniques. Also, error current reduction procedures including leakage current and offset current are proposed to measure low-level current in pA level. Calibration parameters are calculated and stored by microprocessor using least-square fitting with measured sample data. During measurement time microprocessor corrects measured data using stored calibration parameters. Experimental results show that current measurement error above nA level is less than 0.02%. And they also show that current measurement in pA level can be performed with about 0.2% accuracy.

This paper proposes a novel method to compensate for the measurement errors in detecting phase currents for vector-controlled inverter in real-time. The output torque equations for 3-phase induction motor are derived in terms of offset error and transducing gain error in current measurement circuits, and the equations shows that motor output torque has many ripples due to current measurement errors. Especially, if the proposed method is applied to vector-controlled inverter, the torque ripple by transducing gain error can be reduced in real-time at running state of motor. To verify the proposed method, it was applied to vector-controlled inverter for 3-phase induction motor of 200[W] and computer simulation and experimentation were carried out.

Flow-accelerated corrosion (FAC), liquid droplet impingement erosion (LDIE), cavitation and flashing can cause continuous wall-thinning in nuclear secondary pipes. In order to prevent pipe rupture events resulting from the wall-thinning, most NPPs (nuclear power plants) implement their management programs, which include periodic thickness inspection using UT (ultrasonic test). Meanwhile, it is well known in field experiences that the thickness measurement errors (or deviations) are often comparable with the amount of thickness reduction. Because of these errors, it is difficult to estimate wall-thinning exactly whether the significant thinning has occurred in the inspected components or not. In the previous study, the authors presented an approximate estimation procedure as the first step for thickness measurement deviations at each inspected component and the statistical & quantitative characteristics of the measurement deviations using plant experience data. In this study, statistical significance was quantified for the current methods used for wall-thinning determination. Also, the authors proposed new estimation procedures for determining local wall-thinning to overcome the weakness of the current methods, in which the proposed procedure is based on analysis of variance (ANOVA) method using subgrouping of measured thinning values at all measurement grids. The new procedures were also quantified for their statistical significance. As the results, it is confirmed that the new methods have better estimation confidence than the methods having used until now.

This paper suggests on-load torque measurement for 3 phase induction motors by input -voltage and current utilizing symmetric coordinate analysis technique on the basis of the induction motor equivalent circuit. In this paper, two cases are treated with, i.e, one is the case where the motors' exciting current and primary leakage impedance voltage drop are compensated automatically, adopting the ideal wattmeter whose current coil impedance and voltage coil impedance are 0 and .inf. respectively, and the other is the case where non-ideal wattmeter is adopted and the compensation above is made by computation. As a result of the case study, following conclusions are obtained. 1) By proper combination of the error propagation law and the limit of power consumption, the desirable overall measurement error of the apparatus can be obtained on the basis of the inherent errors of CT and PT. 2) The measurement error is larger in current simulation circuit than in voltage simulation circuit. 3) Between the two cases, the latter is more advantageous than the former from the viewpoint of feasibility and the measurement error. 4) As the attachment of Ammeter in the current simulation circuit influences the measurement error considerably, its internal impedance should be large considerably. 5) The larger the consumption power of the apparatus is, the easier the feasibility is.
