The measurement of dynamic stagger in electric railways is one of the key test parameters to increase speed and maintain safety in electric railways. This paper is introduces a non-contact optical-based measuring instrument of a catenary system in electric railways. The instrument is implemented by utilizing a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) camera installed on the roof of a vehicle for vision acquisition and image processing techniques including the Canny edge detector and the Hough transform to detect contact wires and calculate dynamic stagger. To check the validity of our approach for the intended application, we measured stagger of a overhead wire of a Korea Tilting Train (TTX). The non-contact optical-based measurement system proposed in this paper performs real-time stagger measurement of an activated high-voltage contact wire. By results of this paper, the instrument should be applied to assess performance and reliability of newly developed electric railway vehicles.

The Laser distance instrument in past was used mainly with military affairs and the helicopter loaded measures the distance with target and the firing body used in the tank. The military suspicion case measurement distance was scope until of tens km consequently from possibility km and under measuring should have been boiled the low error was 5m husbands and wives. Like this under using should have been boiled the effort was being continued the Laser distance instrument will be able to apply in industry from the present paper hereupon and the usability developed verified.

Underwater ultrasonic communication is critical to explore and development ocean using instrument. Essential to these applications is the reliable teleoperation and telemetering of the unit. But the problem is that the controllability of the instrument and the reliability of submarine communication are decreased, as so various passive noises are generated. In the existing methods, the control informations, received from an observation instrument, are identified used by hardware and repeatedly compared with standard information. However, such a method weakens the efficiency in controllability-centered systems. This study presents an ultrasonic signal detection algorithm that can identify the ultrasonic signal without the influence of disturbances due to underwater environmental changes. Likewise, the logicality of detection algorithm were ascertained by simulation.

The Multi-Physics (MP) instrument is one of 20 neutron spectrometers planned in the China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS). This paper presents a shielding calculation for the MP instrument using Monte Carlo codes MCNPX and FLUKA. First, the neutrons that escape from the CSNS decoupled water moderator and are delivered to the beam line of the MP instrument are calculated to use as the source term of the shielding calculation. Then, to validate the calculation method based on multiple variance reduction techniques, a cross check between MCNPX and FLUKA codes is performed by comparing the calculation results of the dose rate distribution on a simplified beam line model. Finally, a complete geometry model of the MP instrument is set up, and the primary parameters for the shielding design are obtained according to the calculated dose rate map considering different worst-case scenarios.

The purpose of this study Is to develop empirically validated instrument for business model. The previous researches related to business model were almost taxonomies. And the focus of those researches were the classification by the degree of integration and innovation the origin, and the main source of revenue etc. In the emerging fields such as IT, e-commerce, and e-business, it tends to overlook methodological issue in its substantive relationships and also measurement. Business model is taken an interest in recent years. However, as the non-establishment of construct on business model has made no empirical study, this, study tries to develop an empirical validated instrument that identifies the dimensions of business model by uncovering meaningful group or categories. For this, the outlined domain of business model are defined as an organizational level that competes in the industry through the literature reviews. And the traits such as process integration, value chain reconstruction, strategic alliance with another business model, specialty in a certain wet sustainability of essential capabilities, differentiation, convertibility, customer orientation, revenue stream, newness, innovation leadership: and vision sharing are identified in those respective domains, and then the traits are classified into five dimensions such as interlinkageableness, valueness, functionalness, preemptiveness, and goalness by their characteristics. Generating items are continued on the basis of operationalization. Confirmatory factor analysis is performed in order to develop validated instrument with LISREL measurement model. Finally the instrument is developed through the previous procedure. The implication of this study is the first empirical effort to assess business model. The resulting instrument can be used with dependent variables in the future study related to business model. And the establishment of construct of business model is able to make a basis to rise an additional issue consequently. In the practical side, the instrument also can be employed as an assessment framework that can assess whether the expected value success or not. The instrument with the measurement can be used on competitor's business model, In. When an investment into a i-m with a specific business model, these instrument developed can be presented as the basic framework of assessment.

A piezoelectric ultrasonic bone surgical instrument, usually used to remove the tartar out of teeth or to cut the dentine of the tooth, is a recently popular instrument for dental treatment due to its several merits such as small size, low-electric power and precision control of surgical operation. It has typically two parts of a tip and vibration system which is also composed of head, piezoelectric elements and tail-mass. In order to improve the performance of the instrument, it is important to standardize the size of the vibration system without tip for high performance. In this study, a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was utilized to optimize the structure of ultrasonic instrument in vibration system. Consequently, this study revealed that influence of several tips on property were minimized and it showed good property at the frequency range of 22~32 kHz.

In this paper, we propose a new mouthpiece model for the electronic wind instrument using a propeller and linear analysis for fast tracking wind velocity blown. This method is a modification of the velocity anemometer for fast tracking wind velocity by the propeller's angular velocity (speed of revolution). In the case of velocity anemometer, wind velocity is calculated using the property that wind velocity is in proportion to the propeller's angular velocity. However, wind velocity and angular velocity of the propeller are not in one-one correspondence because wind velocity takes some transitional time for the expected wind velocity to be calculated from angular velocity. To resolve this problem, we propose a method for finding the impulse response of the system which can be considered as a linear system, and for estimating the wind velocity by deconvolving the propeller's angular velocity with the impulse response. To experiment and to prove the validity of the proposed system, we designed a mouthpiece model which consists of a motor, a propeller and an encoder. The result of estimated wind velocity in this method showed that this system is about eightfold faster than the method by the conventional velocity anemometer.

It's not easy to detect the high quality and functional compounds for control quality of food materials. The electronic nose was an instrument, which comprised of an array of electronic chemical sensors with partial specificity and an appropriate pattern recognition system, capable of recognizing simple or complex odors. It can conduct fast analysis and provide simple and straightforward results and is best suited for quality control and process monitoring in the field of functional foods. Numbers of applications of an electronic nose in the functional food industry include discrimination of habitats for medicinal food materials, monitoring storage process, lipid oxidation, and quality control of food and/or processing with principal component analysis, neural network analysis and the electronic nose based on GC-SAW sensor. The electronic nose would be possibly useful for a wide variety of quality control in the functional food and plant cultivation when correlating traditional analytical instrumental data with sensory evaluation results or electronic nose data.
