A relatively low frequency Lamb wave-based damage identification method called damage imaging method for rectangular composite plate is presented. A damage index (DI) is generated from the delay matrix of the Lamb wave response signals, and it is used to indicate the location and approximate area of the damage. The viability of this method is demonstrated by analyzing the numerical and experimental Lamb wave response signals from rectangular composite plates. The technique only requires the response signals from the plate after damage, and it is capable of performing near real time damage identification. This study sheds some light on the application of Lamb wave-based damage detection algorithm for plate-type structures by using the relatively low frequency (e.g., in the neighborhood of 100 kHz, more suitable for the best capability of the existing fiber optic sensor interrogator system with the sampling frequency of 500 kHz) Lamb wave response and a reference-free damage detection technique.

본 연구에서는 광섬유형(Fiber Optic Current Sensor) 광전류센서 구성 시 발생하는 선형복굴절(Linear Birefringence)의 보상에 용이한 수직원형틀(Orthogonal Loop Type) 센서헤드(Sensor Heads)를 개선하여 1 Cross 수직원형틀(l Cross Orthogonal Loop Type)을 제시하였다. 그리고 기존의 페루프형 원형틀 (Closed Loop Type), 수직원형틀 그리고 1 Cross 수직원형틀의 편광상태를 비교하였다. 그 결과 편광상태 측정 시 페루프 원형틀을 수직원형틀로 교체할 경우 15.3%, 1 Cross 수직원형틀로 교체할 경우 33.8%의 선형복굴절 감소 효과가 나타났다. 이에 1 Cross 수직원형틀을 광전류센서에 적용할 경우 안정된 편광특성으로 고신뢰성 광전류센서 개발 가능성을 높게 할 것이다.

최근 사전 예고 없는 잇따른 대형 정전 사고가 예기치 않게 발생하고 있으며, 심지어는 그 사고 원인을 정확하게 파악하지 못해 신속한 복구가 이루어지지 않아 막대한 피해가 발생되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 이러한 사고를 사전에 예방하고 또한 상시 전력계통의 원활한 운전에 기여할 수 있는 모니터링 기법이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 전력선이나 전력 장비에는 다양한 요인에 의해 연화점이 생성될 수 있으며 이는 바로 절연파괴, 화재, 기기 손상 및 제어기기의 오동작을 유발할 수 있게 된다. 무엇보다 전력선이나 전력장비 전 구간에 대한 분포 개념의 온도 및 변형률을 모니터링 할 수 있다면 이러한 문제는 크게 해소될 수 있을 것이다.

This test data informs to compare components from different manufactured coupler type. On the point of reliability, less than 1x8 output branching number, fuse type coupler was more stable than PLC type coupler. But more than 1x8 output branching number, PLC type coupler was more stable. This test data showed critical branching point, on the point of reliability.

In this paper, an novel optical measuring system based on the electro-optic effect has been proposed and realized using Pockels cell with a view to detecting partial discharge taking place at the needle plane electrode. This system has the following advantages ; nonmetallic probe sensor, immune to external EMI noise and broad band response of the Pockels cell from DC to GHz. And also it is constructed by He-Ne laser, optical fiber, $LiNbO_3$ Pockels cell, photo detector, grin lens, oscilloscope and PC. The characteristics of the developed prototype sensor are investigated under AC and corona discharges.

Optical networks are composed of various enabling technologies, merged in harmony to produce high-speed, reliable and affordable communications backbones. Optical communications has evolved out of the necessity for a transmission medium with increased bandwidth capacity. The evolution of fiber optic data communications has stemmed from the telecommunications industry's need to multiplex voice channels for interconnecting call distribution center.

Not only Korean scholars but also many scholars in the field of phonetic science were interested in Korean forced sounds from the viewpoint of general phonetics as a way to clarify the process of production and the physical characteristics of speech sounds. The author also tried to elucidate the characteristics of Korean forced sounds using the sound spectrograph (Umeda & Umeda 1965). Over the past 30 years since this study, many scholars have analyzed these sounds from various standpoints resulting in copious amounts of literature. In this paper, the author critically examined the results of previous studies on this subject dealing with VOT, spectral characteristics, fundamental frequency, states of glottis obtained from fiber-optic investigations, and patterns of tongue-palate contact acquired from observation by use of dynamic palatograph. These points were discussed in relation to the author's field of investigation.

In this study, a method to estimate the suspension bridge deflection is developed using mode decomposition technique. In order to examine the suspension bridge stability against these dynamic loadings, the prediction of displacement response is very important to evaluate bridge stability. However, it is recognized that any measurement of movement for suspension bridges may be difficult for the absence of proper methods to measure the displacement response on site. This study aims at suggesting a method to estimate the displacement response from the measured strain signals in an indirect way to predict the displacement response, not a direct way to measure the displacement response. Additionally, by applying the FBG sensors with multi-point measurements not influenced by electric noise, it can be expected that the technique would be applicable to infrastructures.

The photophone, Alexander Graham Bell's device for transmitting sound through light was patented in 1880. It included the transmitter modulating and reflecting strong light like sunlight to a distant receiver which produced sound. In this working of the photophone, the discovery of the sound-emitting effect under illumination was very essential. Longing for being famous in the scientific community, Bell focused on presenting various methods for producing sounds and for maximizing the loudness by performing intensive research on the photoacoustic effect. Bell's scientific research on photoacoustics was successful in establishing himself as a scientist and laid a foundation of photoacoustic analysis. And his invention became a basis for other researchers' subsequent technologies like fiber-optic communication.
