Urban transits of metropolises have been used by many citizens due to the merits of environment friendly traffic, mass transportation, safety and scheduled operation. It is very important to keep safety for the increased passengers. When the accidents as like fire occur, rapid evacuation from fire site is one of the most effective methods to decrease casualties. Furthermore, overseas buyers sometimes request the verification results of the passenger evacuation from rolling stock. In this study, algorithm for passenger flow analysis based on DEM(Discrete Element Method) is newly developed and made simulation program package. And, we applied it to the evacuation problem for urban transits. By using the developed program, we compared the simulation results of the effects of the location and size of door and elapsed time qualitatively and quantitatively.

The Korean medical evacuation helicopter was developed based on the Korean Utility Helicopter (hereafter referred to as 'Surion'). It uses an auxiliary power unit and engine for heating during winter operation. The helicopter maintains the internal temperature of the aircraft using its bleed air to satisfy its operational capability. However, due to the air inflow through the gap between the aircraft skin and door, additional heating for operating the portable medical equipment and preventing hypothermia in evacuated patients is required. Accordingly, an electric auxiliary heater was developed for additional heating during winter operation, and environmental, durability, and performance tests were conducted per MIL-STD-810G and MIL-STD-461F. The auxiliary heater was verified per the tailored airworthiness certification criteria.

Since the mobile platform and the manipulator mounted on it move at the same time in a mobile manipulator, the risk of mutual collision increases. Most of the studies on collision avoidance of mobile manipulators cannot be applied to differential drive type mobile platforms or the end-effector tends to deviate from the desired trajectory for collision avoidance. In this study, a collision avoidance algorithm based on null space projection (CANS) that solves these two problems is proposed. To this end, a modified repulsive force that overcomes the non-holonomic constraints of a mobile platform is generated by adding a virtual repulsive force in the direction of its instantaneous velocity. And by converting this repulsive force into a repulsive velocity and applying it to the null space, the end-effector of the robot avoids a collision while moving along its original trajectory. The proposed CANS algorithm showed excellent performance through self-collision avoidance tests and door opening tests.

To survive in the 21C every nations in the World squeeze their intelligence. To our country, having a marvelous growth career in viewpoint of the economy, making efforts to renovate. Behind the breath of the economy a lot of law, regulations, standards of industry, and specifications are exists and the in-dustry controlled by these. Regretably in spite of surprising growth of our economy in a short period still keeps them old rules as they have been applies on our industry without change. In the part of the rife resistance standards, espacially for the fire door, needs grad-up much for the recently version compared with the other countries's. The rapid reshape of the world urges us be revolutionized in the part of the software, ie. these unchanged rules.

A micro-computer based system has been designed to evaluate the performance of infant incubators. The measurement system used a hybrid of analog electronics for amplification, integration and switches and micro-computer for data storage, data display, and control of relay. This approach has been applied to measure the warm-up time, temperature stability, temperature change due to open/close of door and portholes, and temperature distribution on the mattress. The micro-computer provides on-line access of multi-point temperature data.

Heights of a platform above the rail for the passenger train in the country are classified into two categories such as the low level (500mm; mainline) and the high level (1,135mm; metropolitan subway line) platforms. In order to operate similarly both a mainline railroad and a metropolitan subway line, as the requisite door safety system, it is necessary to develop the doorstep equipment of the rolling stock regardless of both the low and high level platforms. In this study, the application of doorstep equipments to use mixed with two types of platforms are examined on the supposition that the train only for the low level platform stops in the both low and high level platforms.

In this paper, we proposed and developed a fast and efficient real time face detection and recognition which can be run on embedded system instead of high performance desktop. In the face detection process, we detect a face by finding eye part which is one of the most salient facial features after applying various image processing methods, then in the face recognition, we finally recognize the face by comparing the current face with the prepared face database using a template matching algorithm. Also we optimized the algorithm in our system to be successfully used in the embedded system, and performed the face detection and recognition experiments on the embedded board to verify the performance. The developed method can be applied to automatic door, mobile computing environment and various robot.

Special applications designed for smart phone, so called "Apps" are rapidly emerging as unique and effective sources of environmental monitoring tools. Using the advantages of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), this paper propose an application that provides Indoor Gas Monitoring System. In this paper, use four wireless gas sensor modules to acquire sensors data wirelessly coupled with the advantages of existing portable smart device based on Android platform to display the real-time data from the sensor modules. Additionally, this paper adapts a simple gas classification algorithm to inform in-door Gas for users real-time based.

Network virtualization opens the door to novel infrastructure services offering connectivity and node manageability. In this letter, we focus on the cost-efficient embedding of on-demand virtual optical network requests for interconnecting geographically distributed data centers. We present a mixed integer linear programming formulation that introduces flexibility in the virtual-physical node mapping to optimize the usage of the underlying physical resources. Illustrative results show that flexibility in the node mapping can reduce the number of add-drop ports required to serve the offered demands by 40%.

The company Daewoo Precision Industries imported fine blanking press of 40 tons from Switzerland with fine blanking tool in order to produce the fuse part of bomb in 1978 at first in Korea. About 1985 the first fine blanking tool for producing the door lock parts was manufactured in the company Gold Star (now LG). And then this technology was grown up with the growth of automobile industries in Korea. Now 31 companies are closely related to the fine blanking technology and there are total 146 fine blanking presses in Korea. The developments of fine blanking technology in industries have been oriented to the production of precise fine blanking parts, the reduction of die roll height on fine blanking parts, the production of complex fine blanking parts with progressive fine blanking tool including forming and forging technology, the production of high-strength steel fine blanking parts and so on. Some R&D activities in KITECH were introduced.
