This paper proposes a method of tracking an object for a person-following mobile robot by combining a monocular camera and a laser scanner, where each sensor can supplement the weaknesses of the other sensor. For human-robot interaction, a mobile robot needs to maintain a distance between a moving person and itself. Maintaining distance consists of two parts: object tracking and person-following. Object tracking consists of particle filtering and online learning using shape features which are extracted from an image. A monocular camera easily fails to track a person due to a narrow field-of-view and influence of illumination changes, and has therefore been used together with a laser scanner. After constructing the geometric relation between the differently oriented sensors, the proposed method demonstrates its robustness in tracking and following a person with a success rate of 94.7% in indoor environments with varying lighting conditions and even when a moving object is located between the robot and the person.

In this paper, it has a proposal of the RFID reader antenna design that expand the dedicated short-range communication distance between a static object on the ground and a mobile object attached on the moving article. The static reader equipped with micro-processor makes it possible to have a serial communication with a main system, so that much data can be transfer to the main system. An antenna is adjusted in order to a communication, the scale is designed by results values of simulation using matlab. It is achieved to systematically manage logistics, person resource and security system by grasping the information and location of mobile object on the basis that this system receives the information between a static reader and a mobile object tag at 134.2kHz band on real time, also to make it possible the main system to process. Therefore, the reader antenna scale is controlled on the foundation of a magnetic field theory in order to expand a recognition distance of reader and tag, so that can be optimistically recognized with minimizing the direction influence of reader and tag.

An iterative modal analysis approach is developed to determine the effect of transverse open cracks on the dynamic behavior of simply supported Euler-Bernoulli beams with the moving masses. The influences of the velocities of moving masses, the distance between the moving masses and a crack have been studied on the dynamic behavior of a simply supported beam system by numerical method. The Presence of crack results In large deflection of beam. The crack section is represented by a local flexibility matrix connecting two undamaged beam segments i.e. the crack is modelled as a rotational spring. This flexibility matrix defines the relationship between the displacements and forces across the crack section and is derived by applying fundamental fracture mechanics theory. Totally, as the velocity of the moving masses and the distance between the moving masses are increased, the mid-span deflection of simply supported beam with the crack is decreased.

The research was conducted windward of an irrigated Acacia amplicips Maslin windbreak established to protect As Salam Cement Plant from winds and moving sands. Two belts with approximate optical porosities of 50% and 20% were studied in River Nile State, Sudan. The research aimed at assessing the efficiency of the two belts in wind speed reduction and sand deposition. Research methods included: (i) estimation of optical porosity, (ii) measurements of windward wind speeds at a control and at distances of 0.5 h (h stands for windbreak height), 1 h and 2 h at two vertical levels of 0.25 h and 0.5 h, (iii) estimation of relative wind speeds at the three positions (distance and height) at windward and (iv) estimation of wind erosive forces and prediction of zones of sand deposition. Results show that while the two belts reduced windward wind speeds at the two levels for the three distances, belt II was more effective. Nearest sand deposition occurred at 2 h and 1h windward of belt II and belt I, respectively, at level 0.25 h. At level 0.5 h, sand was deposited only at 2 h windward of belt II and no sand deposition occurred windward of belt I. The study concludes that less porous windbreaks are more effective in reducing wind speed and in depositing sand in windward direction at a distance of not less than twice the belt height.

전력선이 통과하는 지역에서 발생된 산불은 계통 섬락사고의 원인이 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 연소화염에 의한 전력선의 절연내력 저하특성을 알아보기 위해 직류 및 교류 전압 인가 시, 연소화염과 고전압 도체의 수평거리(s)를 변화시켰을 때, 수직형 모델 전력선에 대한 섬락특성을 조사하였다. 실험 결과, 수평거리(s)가 작은 범위에서는 화염이 모델선로의 섬락전압을 크게 감소시킬 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 섬락전압의 저하요인을 해석하기 위해 화염주변의 상대공기밀도가 고려되었으며, 화염이 존재하는 경우에는 그 영향이 매우 크게 나타남을 알 수 있었다.

Bridges are vital components of the railroads. High speed of travel, the periodic and oscillatory nature of the loads and the comparable vehicle bridge weight ratio distinguish the railway bridges from the road bridges. The close proximity between estimations by some numerical methods and the measured data for the bridge-vehicle dynamic response under the moving load conditions has boosted the confidence in the numerical analyses. However, there is hardly any report regarding the responses of the railway bridges under the effect of the trains entering from the opposite directions while running at unequal speed and having dissimilar geometries. It is the purpose of this article to present an analytical method for the dynamic analysis of the railway bridges under the influence of two opposing series of moving loads. The bridge structural damping and many modes of vibrations are included. The concept of modal superposition is used to solve for the system motion equations. The method of solution is indeed a computer assisted analytical solution. It solves for the system motion equations and gives output in terms of the bridge deflection. Some case studies are also considered for the validation of the proposed method. Furthermore, the effects of varying some parameters such as the distance between the bogies, and the bogie wheelset distance are studied. Also, the conditions of resonance and cancellation in the dynamic response for a variety of vehicle-bridge specifications are investigated.

High contrast and high resolution are the most important factors for examining mammography images. Despite of the inconveniences of screen-film, most clinics still prefer them to computed radiography(CR) and direct radiography(DR). The reading of screen-film mammography images is influenced by the brightness from the X-ray illuminator, the exam room and incoming light from outside sources. Therefore, a comparative analysis on the results of mammo phantom images would be variated by the changes in the reading environment. There was no influence on reading results from the examiners close distance eyesight(p > 0.05); however, reading of micro lesions improved with greater darkness in the X-ray film reading room and the brightness of the X-ray illuminator(p < 0.05). Also, observation of fiber and mass images were maximized at a distance of 50 cm from the reader. Now, it is possible to observe these small classification groups using a magnifying glass without being physically close to the image. For the image of mammography, obtaining high quality images is important but in order to get an accurate clinical lesions of the reading also needs to be considered the optimal environmental factors.

The operation of surface and edge finishing is the last and essential process of parts machining, because a product is completed as an assembly. Therefore, the quality of the finished parts has a direct effect upon the performance of the product. Especially, the edge quality depending on the burr control process is very important. A number of deburring processes have been developed for macro burrs such as barreling, brushing, chemical methods, etc. However, micro burr removal when piercing a very thin plate is very difficult, because this badly deteriorates the surface quality of the processed part. When ultrasonic wave is propagated in liquids, it forms an infinitude of micro bubbles. These bubbles generate extremely strong force, which removes micro burrs. In ultrasonic micro deburring, the problem is that burrs are not removed completely, because only components of the explosive force directly act on the burrs, which is not enough. An attempt was made to remove the burrs using ultrasonic vibration in water with SiC as an abrasive agent. Because of the abrasive, smoother edges have been achieved. There are many control parameters in ultrasonic deburring such as abrasive size, ultrasonic frequency and amplitude, distance between tool and workpiece, tilt angle of workpiece etc. This study focuses on how distance and tilt angle influence deburring effect. A number of experiments for these parameters have been carried out, and then the effect of each parameter analyzed.
