In this paper we propose a collision risk decision system for collision avoidance system A collision avoidance system carries out collision avoidance based on collision risk of unknown obstacle. In the traditional researches, using DCPA and TCPA for calculating the collision risk has problem that they produce a same collision risk for ship which located in the given distance. The solves the problem we use DCPA, TCPA, and VCD for calculating collision risk. A proposed system has two advantages that is produce more detailed collision risk and reflects the international Regulations for Preventing Collision at Sea.

This paper focuses on development of SCAAM(Ship Collision Avoidance Assignment Model) for avoiding ship collison at sea. We take a new look at DCPA, TCPA, VCD, collision concept for ship collision avoidance and propose SCAAM using DCPA pre-assignmented by a ship master on information collected by other ship's AIS, GPS (course-speed, destination, length, width, tonnage etc). If A ship is a collision situation, the ship master makes a decision where the ship makes a evasion voyage or not continually using SCCAM. If ship master decides a evasion voyage, the ship is voyaged by CORLEGS (International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea). This paper contributes to safety navigation by decreasing the ship collision accident by human's error.

충돌회피 시스템은 선박의 안전 항해에 중요한 역할을 한다. 충돌회피 시스템은 선박이 장애물을 만났을 때 영역전문가인 항해사를 대신하여 피항 행위를 하도륵 지시하는 시스템으로 자선에서 이루어지는 해상 장애물들에 대한 피항 시 그 판단 기준을 각 장애물에 대한 충돌위험도에 둔다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 선박의 충돌회피 시스템의 보다 안전한 충돌회피를 도모하기 위해 충돌회피를 위한 충돌위험도 결정 시스템을 제안한다. 충돌위험도 결정 시스템은 장애물 모델링과 장애물의 충돌위험도 결정의 두 부분으로 구성된다. 장애물 모델링은 선박의 센서에서 나오는 저수준의 자료를 지능형 선박의 타 시스템에서 이용하기 쉽도록 구하는 과정이다. 충돌위험도 결정 시스템의 출력으로 산출되는 충돌위험도는 충돌회피 시스템의 피항 행위 결정에 정보로 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 DCPA와 TCPA를 이용한 기존의 기법에 VCD의 개념을 추가한 새로운 충돌위험도 결정 기법을 제안한다. 입력변수가 되는 DCPA, TCPA, VCD의 퍼지 소속함수를 산출하고 이를 기반으로 퍼지 추론을 이용하여 세부적인 충돌위험도를 결정한다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 기법은 기존의 DCPA와 TCPA만으로 충돌위험도를 결정한 경우보다 상세한 충돌위험도 결정이 가능하다는 장점과 국제해상충돌예방규칙의 내용이 적용되었다는 장점을 지닌다. 제안된 기법은 DCPA와 TCPA 만으로 충돌위험도를 결정한 기법과 비교.평가하여 성능을 검증한다.

In December 2017, many collision accidents of small vessels, such as those between oil refineries and fishing boats, occurred near Yeonghung-do in Incheon. In order to prevent marine casualties from small vessels, the government is striving to improve the safety capabilities of ship operators by strengthening education and improving the working environment. They are providing education and refining training regulations for fishermen operating vessels under 5 tons. However, the situation includes certain vulnerabilities. In this study, we propose a collision prevention algorithm for small vessels using the Wireless Access in Vehicular Environments (WAVE) communication system, which is a new communication technique to prevent collisions with small ships. The collision avoidance algorithm used is based on DCPA/TCPA. Research analyses, simulation experiments and questionnaires have been conducted to define the criteria of DCPA/TCPA. As a result, the standard for DCPA was $8(L_a+L_b)$ and for TCPA was 2.5 min. Three different accident cases were selected, and this algorithm was applied to confirm alarm responses at certain times. This algorithm can provide information to the operators of small ships in advance to help them recognize potential collision situations.

This paper introduces a technique for calculating the degree of collision risk used in collision avoidance system of AUVs. The collision risk will be reckoned with the fuzzy inference, which uses TCPA(Time of the Closest Point of Approach) and DCPA(Distance of the Closest Point of Approach) as factors. A method to obtain TCPA and DCPA for 3-dimension is suggested. The degree of collision risk is provided to collision avoidance system, and is verified the effectiveness through simulation.

Hardening and hydroxyapatite(HAp) formation behavior of the bioactive cements in the system of $CaO-SiO_{2}-P_{2}O_{5}$ glasses and the corresponding glass-ceramics were studied. DCPD (Dicalcium Phosphate Dihydrate: $CaHPO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$) and DCPA (Dicalcium Phosphate Anhydrous: $CaHPO_4$) were developed when the prepared glass and glass-ceramic powders were mixed with three different solutions. The DCPD and DCPA transformed to HAp when the cement was soaked in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF), and this HAp formation strongly depended on the releasing capacity of $Ca^{2+}$ ions from the cements. The glass-ceramic containing apatite showed fast setting, but no HAp formation was observed because no $Ca^{2+}$ ions were released from this glass-ceramics. The compressive strength of the cements increased with reaction time in SBF until all DCPD and DCPA transformed to HAp.

최근 들어 두드러지고 있는 승조원의 승선 기피현상에 따른 항해인력 부족현상을 근원적으로 해결하기 위하여 선박 항해 전반에 걸친 자동화 및 지능화에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히 선박의 자동화된 항해를 위해서는 영역전문자 수준의 안전성과 정확성이 보장된 충돌회피 시스템이 요구된다. 충돌회피는 자선에서 이루어지는 해상 장애물들에 대한 피항 행위로 그 판단 기준은 각 장애물에 대한 충돌 위험도에 기반한다. 본 연구에서는 DCPA와 TCPA를 이용한 기존의 기법에 변침도(VDH: Variation Degree of Heading)의 개념을 추가하여 새로운 충돌 위험도 산출 기법을 제안한다. 입력변수가 되는 DCPA, TCPA, VDH의 퍼지 소속함수를 산출하고, 이를 기반으로 퍼지 규칙을 이용하여 세부적인 충돌 위험도를 산출한다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 기법은 충돌 위험도 산출시 장애물의 직선운항뿐만 아니라 곡선운항에 대한 경로예측이 가능하다는 장점을 지닌다. 과거의 변침도가 다음시점의 변침에 영향을 끼침으로써 장애물의 이동 경로에 대한 예측이 이루어지고, 이를 기반으로 보다 세분화된 충돌위험도 산출이 이루어진다. 제안된 기법은 DCPA와 TCPA만으로 충돌위험도를 산출해 낸 연구와 비교.평가하여 성능을 검증한다.

The effect of $\beta$-TCP and PHA as additives on initial setting time, compressive strength and surface micro-structure after in vitro test of bone cement in TTCP and DCPA system was investigated. The median particle sizes of TTCP, $\beta$-TCP, DCPA and PHA for bone cement were about 3, 5, 0.9 and 4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, respectively. Initial setting time and compressive strength of bone cement with various composition was measured by Vicat test and Universal Testing Machine, and surface morphology and crystalline phases of bone cements were observed and analyzed by SEM and x-ray diffractometer. Initial setting time was not affected by composition but by powder/liquid ratio, and cement with PHA required double amount of solution for paste as much as one without PHA, especially. It was thought that $\beta$-TCP and PHA in bone cements was not related to setting reaction. Thus, the addition of $\beta$-TCP and PHA in bone cements decreased compressive strength and inhabited HAP from being produced on surface in vitro test. In conclusion, it was not expected that $\beta$-TCP and PHA in TTCP-DCPD bone cements enhanced the strength and bioacitivity.

BACKGROUND: Global longitudinal strain (GLS) is an accurate and reproducible parameter of left ventricular (LV) systolic function which has shown meaningful prognostic value. Fast, user-friendly, and accurate tools are required for its widespread implementation. We aim to compare a novel web-based tool with two established algorithms for strain analysis and test its reproducibility. METHODS: Thirty echocardiographic datasets with focused LV acquisitions were analyzed using three different semi-automated endocardial GLS algorithms by two readers. Analyses were repeated by one reader for the purpose of intra-observer variability. CAAS Qardia (Pie Medical Imaging) was compared with 2DCPA and AutoLV (TomTec). RESULTS: Mean GLS values were -15.0 ± 3.5% from Qardia, -15.3 ± 4.0% from 2DCPA, and -15.2 ± 3.8% from AutoLV. Mean GLS between Qardia and 2DCPA were not statistically different (p = 0.359), with a bias of -0.3%, limits of agreement (LOA) of 3.7%, and an intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of 0.88. Mean GLS between Qardia and AutoLV were not statistically different (p = 0.637), with a bias of -0.2%, LOA of 3.4%, and an ICC of 0.89. The coefficient of variation (CV) for intra-observer variability was 4.4% for Qardia, 8.4% 2DCPA, and 7.7% AutoLV. The CV for inter-observer variability was 4.5%, 8.1%, and 8.0%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: In echocardiographic datasets of good image quality analyzed at an independent core laboratory using a standardized annotation method, a novel web-based tool for GLS analysis showed consistent results when compared with two algorithms of an established platform. Moreover, inter- and intra-observer reproducibility results were excellent.

${CO_3}^{2-}$ containing whisker-like hydroxyapatite powders were synthesized byhomogeneous precipitation method using urea, Dicalcium phosphate anhdrate[DCPA; $CaHPO_4$] and octacalcium phosphate [OCP; $Ca_8H_2(PO_4_)6\cdot5H_20$]were obtained as precursors and they transformed to high crystalline hydroxyapatites at pH 5.62, and 6.54 respectively. According to the condition of the final pH in the solutions for the solution products and urea contents OCP was remained. When the solution product of $Ca^{2-}$ and ${PO_4}^{3-}$ was $1.5\times 10^4$[$mM^2$] and the content of urea was 0.25 mol.$dm^{-3}$ well crystallized whisker-like hydroxyapatite tens of micrometer in length was obtained. By heat treatment DCPA and OCP were decomposed into $\beta$-tricalcium phosphate [$\beta$-TCP ; $\beta$-$Ca_3{PO_4}_2$] and $\beta$-dicalcium phosphate [$\beta$-DCP ;$\beta$-$Ca_2P_2O_4}_2$]. And well-crystallized hydroxyapatite was partially decomposed into $\beta$-TCP at $800^{\circ}C$.
