  • The ground station which operates the LEO satellite performs monitoring state of health of the satellite, sending the commands for the imaging mission of receiving the images during about 10 minutes of contact time. To finish the planned procedure in limited contact time, specific level of autonomy is applied in the satellite and the ground system. For example, the attitude and orbit control logic has high level of autonomy because it must be operated alone for long period without operator intervention. On the other hand, the fault management logic has relatively low level of autonomy because of that failure detection and safing operation are performed on-board, whereas failure identification and recovery are on-ground operation. The level of autonomy of the satellite affects also the ground operation. The command set for mission operation is generated by ground system. If the satellite has higher level of autonomy, some of operation currently done on-ground can be performed on-board, so the ground operation can be simplified. In this paper, we discuss the level of autonomy and propose a concept for improving the level of autonomy of an LEO satellite.

  • In this study, the base isolation systems for equipment in the NPP are presented and the responses of each isolation system are investigated. As for the base isolation systems, a natural rubber bearing (NRB) and a high damping rubber bearing (HDRB) are selected. As input motions, artificial time histories enveloping the US NRC RG 1.60 spectrum and the probability-based scenario earthquake spectra developed for the Korean nuclear power plant site as well as a typical near-fault earthquake record are used. Uniaxial, biaxial, and triaxial excitations are conducted with PGAs of 0.1, 0.2 and 0.25g. The reduction of the seismic forces transmitted to the equipment models are determined for different isolation systems and input motions.

  • Intelligent monitoring and diagnosis of production processes based on multivariate statistical methods has been one of important tasks for safety and quality issues. This is due to the fact that faults and unexpected events may have serious impacts on the operation of processes. This study proposes a diagnostic scheme based on effective representation of process measurement data and is evaluated using simulation process data. The effects of utilizing a preprocessing step and nonlinear statistical methods are also tested using fifteen faults of the simulation process. Results show that the proposed scheme produced more reliable results and outperformed other tested schemes with none of the filtering step and nonlinear methods. The proposed scheme is expected to be robust to process noises and easy to develop due to the lack of required rigorous mathematical process models or expert knowledge.

  • Domestic elevator accidents which are related to human life such as death are occurring steadily. This research measured and analyzed for the quality of power source which has possibility to be associated with fault and malfunction of elevator equipment although it is not direct cause examination. In conclusion, we acquired the result that there is possibility that the quality of power source(Sag, Interruption, Harmonic, Electromagnetism emission waveform, Static electricity etc) has an effect on movement of elevator through examination of three elevator facility models and suggested measures for it. Accordingly, this research result will be used as data to suggest establishment of elevator examination regulations and KS regulations for domestic elevator industry and the least safety of household using elevator.

  • Driver for safety always check the status of their vehicle, and it is essential to understand. When driver know vehicle driving status, there is know vehicle driving status to use vehicle realtime control data by OBD-II of vehicle network and connected OBD-II connector. But, connector to receive OBD-II data differ each communication connection method to connect smart device.(such as smartphone, blackbox, EDR) if vehicle driver change another smart device from smart device(such as android -> iphone, iphone -> android), vehicle driver exist the inconvenience that purchase new OBD-II connector. in this paper, As make up for the fault, there is to implement one OBD-II connector that integrate Bluetooth, Wifi, WCDMA module. as result, anything smart device was notified realtime vehicle control data through implemented one OBD-II connector in this paper

  • This study is about design for the Rotational Instrument of the Industry factory which is used management safety and maintenance. We developed the multichannel vibration monitering system of the self-diagnosis for middle level CMS(Condition Monitoring System) market, and that system are new features to the expandability and flexibility. Normally one channel is used for treating one signal, but developed instrument can treat four channel with one signal processing card. One rack have redundant power supply and displace and it can check vibration measurement value in field without computer. Bearing fault detection is fundamental of vibration surveillance, but sometimes can not check with vibration velocity and acceleration. So it need the filtering and the amplitude modulation on the acceleration enveloping technology when irregular vibration is happened. We developed the vibration analysis instrument which is applied such technology. And the development prototype shows activated within the vibration error limit.

Diagnostic function estimate degradation of system components and diagnose system faults, which results in shortage of fault maintenance time and improvement of system safety. Slave devices which control each valve and master device which command, monitor and diagnose slave system are developed. Slave devices are connected to master device with redundant Modbus networks and master device is connected to ship's integrated control system with Modbus TCP/IP. Also this paper describes development of simulator to test and confirm whether developed system can be integrated with ship's integrated control and monitoring system.

  • The most frequent occurring and the serious marine casualties in fishing vessels are the collision in statistics from Korea Maritime Safety Tribunal (2008-2015). Collisions are is given a great deal of weight in all marine casualties, and the main cause of collisions is the negligence of watching. From this point of view, this study deals with the collision and its immediate cause, the negligence of watching which are main factors on the indirect causes. Basic analyzing data was gathered from the questionnaire made by experts of sea service part, and analyzed by using the fault tree analysis (FTA). From the result of the study, the occurrent probability of the negligence of watching in the collision due to the indirect causes occupied 64.9%, and its probability caused by the man factors was less than the other factors; i.e. the media factors and the management factors. For the reduction of the negligence of watching in the collision from this study, it needs an effort to remove not only the man factors, but also the media factors and management factors.

  • The present paper describes a technique for installing an effective grounding grids, the major objective is forced on the experimental evaluation of the performance and characteristics with the arrangement and installation method for grounding grids consisting of the means to protect electric shock, electronics and computerized facilities against lightning, switching and ground fault surges. The study is oriented on two major areas: (1) the analysis of the ground surface potential gradient with the arrangement of grounding grids, (2) the control of the dangerous ground surface potential rise. The experiments wee carried out with the impulse currents as a function of the installation method or arrangement of grounding grids. An installation method of the inclined auxiliary grounding grid was proposed to overcome the drawbacks of equally spared grounding grids, i.e. an appropriate design concept far the installation of grounding grids was found out, It has been shown that the installation of the intwined auxiliary grounding grid can also result in a mere than 50% decrease in the maximum potential gradient on the ground surface and enhance the level of safety for persons and electronic equipments..
