In this paper, parameters related with partial discharge (PD) were analyzed in SF₆ gas under AC and DC voltages. Three electrode systems (protrusion on conductor, protrusion on enclosure, and free particle) were fabricated to simulate PD defects in a gas-insulated switchgear (GIS). All electrode systems were filled with SF₆ gas at 0.5 MPa. PD pulses were detected using an oscilloscope and a data acquisition (DAQ) based on IEC 60270. To analyze the PD characteristics under AC and DC voltages, parameters such as discharge inception voltage (DIV), discharge extinction voltage (DEV), pulse magnitude, repetition rate, and T-F map were compared. From the experimental results, PD was revealed to have different characteristics under AC and DC, and these results may be useful for diagnosis of power facilities operated under HVDC.

The reduction of tool vibration has been a serious issue for both employers and workers because of the risks of vibration transmitted to the workers. In this study a hand-arm vibration measurement and evaluation system was developed based on ISO 5349:2001 and used for analyzing relation of vibration level and components of tools. This system consists of a notebook PC installed a LabVIEW program and the data acquisition system including two 3-axial accelerometers and a NI-DAQ card. Vibration measurement tests were conducted for eight angle grinders and four impact wrenches where 3 subjects were used for each of the tools. The relation between different components of each tool and its vibration total value made it possible to set-up a guideline of tool design. In the past engineers developed tools by using their experience and intuition, but by using this system it became possible to design tool components so as to minimize the risks of hand-transmitted vibration.

In this work, a piezostack single-stage valve (PSSV) system is proposed and its control performance is experimentally evaluated at high temperature up to $150^{\circ}C$. In order to achieve this goal, a PSSV system is designed and operating principle and mechanical dimensions are discussed. A displacement amplifier and an adjust bolt are used to generate target displacement and to compensate thermal expansion. Then, an experimental apparatus is constructed to evaluate control performance of the PSSV system. The experimental apparatus consists of a heat chamber, a hydraulic circuit, a pneumatic circuit, pneumatic-hydraulic cylinders, thermal insulator, electronic devices, sensors, data acquisition (DAQ) board and a voltage amplifier. The flow rate and displacement control performance of the valve system are evaluated via experiment. The experimental results are evaluated and discussed at different temperatures and frequencies showing the controlled flow rate and spool displacement.

This study presents a new methodology for realtime tool breakage detection by sensor fusion concept of two hall sensor and an acoustic emission (AE) sensor. Spindle induction motor torque of CNC Lathe during machining is estimated by two hall sensor. Estimated motor torque instead of a tool dynamometer was used to measure the cutting torque and tool breakage detection. A burst of AE signal was used as a triggering signal to inspect the cutting torque. A significant drop of cutting torque was utilized to detect tool breakage. The algorithm was implemented on a NI DAQ (Data Acquisition) board for in-process tool breakage detection. The result of experiment showed an excellent monitoring capability of the proposed tool breakage detection system. This system is available tool breakage monitoring through internet also provides this system's user with current cutting torque of induction motor.

The objectives of this research are development of guidance, navigation and control system for RUAV on virtual instrumentation and real flight test. For this research, the system is divided to DAQ (data acquisition) section, actuator section and controller section. And the hardware and software on each sections are realized on LabVIEW base. Waypoint guidance and control of auto flight are realized using PID gain tuning and waypoint vector tracking guidance algorism. For safe flight test, auto/manual switching module isolated from FCS (Flight Control System) is developed. By using the switch module, swift mode change was achieved during emergency flight case. Consequently, a meter level error of flight performance is achieved.

A simple realization of an alignment-free wireless power transmission (WPT) system is presented in this letter. The WPT system consists of a transmitter with three reconfigurable modes corresponding to various controllable magnetic field directions in the azimuthal plane and an algorithm for the optimum mode selection carried by sensing the reflected voltage of the system. Twelve light emitting diodes (LEDs) are used to confirm the on- and off-state of LEDs powered wirelessly by the transmitter at every $15^{\circ}$ of the azimuthal plane. A criterion voltage from the reflected power of the system is found by using the correlation between the reflected voltage and the on- and off-state of the LEDs. Simply by continuous; monitoring of the voltage from the system, the system maintains power to the LEDs. The system is realized by MATLAB/Simulink and a National Instrument data acquisition device (DAQ) board. Measurements using the system show on-state LEDs in the azimuthal plane except at the angles of $60^{\circ}$, $75^{\circ}$, $180^{\circ}$, and $300^{\circ}$.

The mold industry is competitive, and mold should be processed under optimal conditions for efficient processing. However, the cutting conditions of the ball-end mill, which are a major factor in mold processing, are mostly set empirically, and considerable research is required for increasing the tool life and processing accuracy. In this study, a tool dynamometer and an eddy current sensor were used along with NI-DAQ, a data acquisition device, to obtain characteristic values of the cutting force and tool deformation during the ball end-mill machining of inclined surfaces at a machining center. The cutting force and tool deformation were measured in an experiment. It was found that the tool received the greatest cutting force at the end of the machining process, and the deformation of the tool increased rapidly. Furthermore, the cutting force tended to increase with the angle and number of rotations. The deformation increased rapidly during the machining of a 45° inclined surface.

In high radiation fields, gamma cameras suffer from pulse pile-up, resulting in poor energy resolution, count losses, and image distortion. To overcome this problem, various methods have been introduced to reduce the size of the aperture or pixel, reject the pile-up events, and correct the pile-up events, but these technologies have limitations in terms of mechanical design and real-time processing. The purpose of this study is to develop a real-time gamma camera to evaluate the radioactive contamination in high radiation fields. The gamma camera is composed of a pinhole collimator, NaI(Tl) scintillator, position sensitive photomultiplier (PSPMT), signal processing board, and data acquisition (DAQ). The pulse pile-up is corrected in real-time with a field programmable gate array (FPGA) using the start time correction (STC) method. The STC method corrects the amplitude of the pile-up event by correcting the time at the start point of the pile-up event. The performance of the gamma camera was evaluated using a high dose rate ¹³⁷Cs source. For pulse pile-up ratios (PPRs) of 0.45 and 0.30, the energy resolution improved by 61.5 and 20.3%, respectively. In addition, the image artifacts in the ¹³⁷Cs radioisotope image due to pile-up were reduced.

This study presents the development and characterization of a prototype TL/OSL reader for the retrospective dose assessment of individuals in radiological emergencies. The reader is portable, semi-automatic, and capable of accurate measurements. The dimension of the reader is 25 × 25 × 37 cm³ and the weight is about 15 kg. The reader consists of a sample moving stage, a heating module, an optical stimulation module, a detection module, a data acquisition (DAQ) unit, a nitrogen gas control module, and a PC with a GUI program. The reader has three measurement modes: TL, CW_OSL, and custom mode. The reader was characterized using commercial thermal luminescence dosimeters (TLD, LiF:Mg,Cu,Si) and optically stimulated dosimeters (OSLD, Al₂O₃:C), as well as fortuitous materials, such as display glasses and resistors of mobile phone. The results showed that the reader is capable of measuring signals with a detection limit of up to 0.02 mGy using a commercial dosimeter. In the dose recovery test using fortuitous materials, the reconstructed doses obtained three days post-irradiation closely aligned with the initially administered doses. As a result, this study suggests that the developed TL/OSL reader is a promising instrument for emergency dose assessment at accident sites.
