If temperature management is required in factory or environmental monitoring, temperature can be measured by connecting various sensors wired or wirelessly. Surface acoustic wave sensors measure temperature using changes in acoustic waves on the sensor surface according to temperature, and are useful for wireless networks. In this paper, in order to build a wireless temperature measurement system in the 900 MHz frequency band, the temperature characteristics of the passive SAW sensor were measured, and the analysis and removal of multipath reflection wave effect inside the high temperature chamber were conducted. The resonant frequency of the SAW sensor was measured, and radio transmission/reception and multipath reflected wave removal techniques were proposed in the shielded chamber.

This paper proposes a fuzzy algorithm for determining navigation path of an autonomous mobile robot in uncertain environment. The proposed fuzzy algorithm includes three type (MIN-TIME, ECONOMY, SAFETY) motion modes for the robot to get the ability to meet the ambiguous situation which the robot encounters. Ech ode is applied to both static and dynamic environmental situation. This paper concludes by showing the efficiency of the proposed method through some computer simulation results.

Recently, interest and financial investment in community infrastructure have been growing. Accordingly, Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport suggested a standard for community infrastructure planning. The standard was based on time distance which represents citizens' accessibility to infrastructure facilities. This paper presents a method to use the navigation application programming interface (API) to calculate travel time. Buffer analysis using Euclidean distance has been widely used so far to evaluate accessibility. However, this method has limitation in that it does not reflect situations in the real world such as crosswalks and slope ways. The infrastructure accessibility indices of local towns in Yeonsu-gu, Incheon were computed based on the time obtained by navigation API. Also, Yeonsu-gu was spatially analyzed to reveal the resident units that are marginalized from community infrastructure facilities. Using navigation API enables to compute realistic accessibility indices and to find unbenefitted residential areas. The method presented in this paper can help community infrastructure planners for their facility spatial plan and budget distribution.

Logistics movement using ships has been used for many centuries, but maritime accidents are still difficult to predict and they occur on a large scale. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) made it mandatory to install Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) for safe seas, but S-57 standards applied to equipment were not updated over 30 years. In addition, it is difficult to keep the equipment up-to-date and revise standards as ships move around the world. In consideration of the limitations of S-57, the IHO developed the new standard as S-100 rather than an update of the S-57. In this study, the previously developed S-100 tool and S/W were configured as one platform and applied to the S-100 ECDIS. The platform conducts as the S-100 cycle and ecosystem from the creation of standards to release and practical use in ships. The hydrographic information standard is machine-readable as defined in S-100, and it has been validated that the latest standard can be applied using the Plug and Play (PnP) function without software system updates. It is expected that international organization such as the International Hydrographic Office (IHO) and the International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) shall develop and release standards and mariners can easily apply the latest standards to equipment through the machine-readable platform.

Our ocean where three sides are the seas is the state that the environmental pollution damage is serious because of all kinds of wastes. Therefore, environmental pollution will be considerably decreased if we leans forward in the saddle to manage net which is conquering a section equivalent among wastes and will be helpful to marine ecosystem. This study is to develop a fishing net management system identifying nets cast and withdrawn from the vessel The purpose of FNMS is to manage sailing vessels arrival and departure details in order to manage a net abandoned in the ocean, and restrain the occurrence of the wasted net abandoned without permission in the ocean, and prevent environmental pollution and sailing vessels sank in and around the ocean.

최근 어항에도 친환경항만을 건설하기 위한 노력이 국제적으로 확산되고 있으며, 우리나라에서도 어항의 정비 및 재개발부분에서 적극적으로 수질개선을 위한 기술 적용이 본격화 되고 있다. 본 연구는 우리나라 남해의 소규모 어항 및 해수욕장에 슬릿형 해안 구조물이 시공된 실해역의 실측자료와 수치해석을 통해 현장적용성의 분석을 수행하였다. 수치실험으로는 파랑작용 평형방정식을 이용하는 SWAN 모델을 구성하고 수리모형실험에서 분석된 실린더 슬릿형 방파제의 반사와 투과계수를 모텔에 도입하였다. 수치실험은 한국해양연구원의 전해역 심해설계파 추정 보고서 II (2005)중의 심해설계파 제원을 사용하였으며, 대상해역의 1970년~2006년 (37년간) 관측된 연최대 풍속자료를 이용하여 모델에 반영하였다. 설리항에서 S, SSE, SE계열의 파랑의 내습에 대한 분석을 수행하였으며, 그 결과 구조물이 항내에서 정온도가 유지되며 해수순환에도 이점이 있음을 현장관측 자료분석과 수치실험결과를 통하여 확인할 수 있었다.

Environmental management and design based on the coastal characteristics are highly recommended because it is highly required to provide pleasant and safe environment in Marina. The coastal environment have a large spatial and temporal variations. Thus, the systematic survey monitoring should be planned and the practical management level should be determined based on the practically achievable level and minimum requirement not a standardized single criteria. It aimed to suggest the basic essential steps and related techniques needed in each step.

In order to increase the autonomous navigation capability of a mobile robot, it is very crucial to develop a method for recognizing a priori known environmental characteristics. This paper proposes an ultrasonic sensor based real-time method for recognizing a priori known indoor environmental characteristics like a wall and corner. The ultrasonic sensor consists of an ultrasonic transmitter and two ultrasonic receivers placed symmetrically about the transmitter. Unlike previous methods the information obtained from the sensor is processed in real-time by extended Kalman filter to be able to correct the position and orientation of robot with respect to known environmental characteristics.

In order to make the underwater vehicle carry out the mission in a submarine environment, it is needed to plan a safe and efficient route to a given destination and prevent the autonomous submersible from colliding with obstacles while moving along the planned route. The function of collision avoidance makes the travel distance of the autonomous submersible longer. Moreover, it should move slowly near to obstacles against their moving disturbance. As a result, this invokes the degradation of the navigation efficiency in the process of collision avoidance. The side effect of the collision avoidance is not ignorable in the case of high congested environments such as the coast with many obstacles. In this paper, we suggest a path planning method which provides the route with minimum travel time considering collision avoidance in congested environment. For the purpose, we define environmental congestion map related to geometric information and obstacles. And we propose a method to consider the moving cost in the RRT scheme that provides the existing minimum distance path. We verified that the efficiency of our algorithm with simulation experiments.

The effect of plastic board drains (PBDs)on ground improvement was checked out considering three crucial factors: ground settlement, undrained shear strength, and residual water head. First, the settlement analysis including initial settlement induced by reclamation of sand mat was conducted by back calculation analysis with measured data. Its result showed toot the PBDs used for this site worked well on improving soft ground. Secondly, the undrained shear strength was investigated by laboratory and in-situ tests including unconsolidated-undrained triaxial compression (UU) tests, unconfined compression tests, in-situ vane tests, and cone penetration tests. From the test results, they showed that the undrained shear strength of the improved ground by PBDs was significantly increased as well as the strength increasing ratio especially $10{\sim}15m$ below the ground surface on site. Thirdly, the residual water head measurement from the in situ dissipation test was found the same as the static water head, which indicated primary consolidation was completed and the effect of soil improvement with PBDs can be confirmed.
