High-voltage isolating switches play a paramount role in ensuring the safety of power supply systems. However, their exposure to outdoor environmental conditions may cause serious physical defects, which may result in great risk to power supply systems and society. Image processing-based methods have been used for anomaly detection. However, their accuracy is affected by numerous uncertainties due to manually extracted features, which makes the anomaly detection of isolating switches still challenging. In this paper, a vision-based anomaly detection method for isolating switches, which uses the rotational angle of the switch system for more accurate and direct anomaly detection with the help of deep learning (DL) and image processing methods (Single Shot Multibox Detector (SSD), improved frame differencing method, and Hough transform), is proposed. The SSD is a deep learning method for object classification and localization. In addition, an improved frame differencing method is introduced for better feature extraction and a hough transform method is adopted for rotational angle calculation. A number of experiments are conducted for anomaly detection of single and multiple switches using video frames. The results of the experiments demonstrate that the SSD outperforms the You-Only-Look-Once network. The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method have been proven under various conditions, such as different illumination and camera locations using 96 videos from the experiments.

연구의 목적은 고등학교 과학 교과서에 제시된 염화구리(II) 수용액의 전기분해 실험의 문제점을 분석하여, 학생들이 실험을 용이하게 수행하게 하고 환기 장치가 없는 과학실 여건을 고려해 염소 기체 발생으로 인한 안전 문제의 발생을 줄이기 위한 개선 실험을 제시하기 위한 것이다. 연구를 위하여 고등학교 11종 과학 교과서에 제시된 염화구리(II) 수용액의 전기분해 실험을 실험 방법에 따라 분류하고, 중등학교 화학 교사들에게 과학 교과서에 제시된 실험 방법대로 실험을 수행하게 한 후 문제점을 분석하여 개선 실험을 모색하였다. 연구 결과에 의하면, U 자관과 가지달린 U 자관을 반응 용기로 사용한 염화구리(II) 수용액의 전기분해 실험에서는 반응속도가 느려서 부반응으로 부산물이 발생하는 문제점이 있었으며, 비커를 반응 용기로 사용한 실험에서는 두 전극이 분리되어 있지 않아 각 전극에서 일어나는 화학반응을 분리하여 관찰할 수 없었다. 그리고 전기분해 장치를 반응 용기로 사용한 실험에서는 반응 생성물의 성질을 확인하기 어려운 문제점이 있었다. 이러한 문제점들을 개선하기 위하여 ㅂ자 모양의 반응 용기를 사용한 결과, 전기분해 반응속도가 빨라졌고, 각 전극에서 생성되는 반응 생성물의 특성을 분리해서 관찰할 수 있었다. 또한, 염화구리(II) 수용액의 사용량과 (-)극 주변에서 일어나는 부반응으로 인한 부산물의 생성량을 줄일 수 있었다. 그러므로 ㅂ자 모양의 반응 용기를 사용하는 개선 실험을 고등학교 과학 탐구 실험에 활용한다면, 염화구리(II) 수용액의 전기분해 실험을 용이하게 수행할 수 있어, 수용액의 전기분해에 관한 과학적인 개념 형성에 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이다.

본 논문에서는 골절 치료에 사용되고 있는 기존의 금속판과 나사고정 장치를 개선하여, 뼈에 점진적인 생리하중을 가할 수 있도록 고안된 내고정 장치를 살펴보았다. 이 장치는 골절판과 나사를 결합할 때, 그 사이에 생분해성 재질이나 기타 댐핑 특성이 우수한 재질의 와셔를 삽입하는 것을 그 특징으로 한다. 본 논문에서는 주로 이 장치의 충격 흡수 특성을 파악하기 위해, 돼지 대퇴골과 소 경골에대해 충격 망치를 이용하여 얻은 진동 실험 결과를 보여주며, 특히 와셔의 유무에 따른 충격 흡수 특성을 실험적으로 비교하였다.

In this paper, numerical experiments are performed to examine the collision between a solitary wave and a wave-packet (dispersive wave) in shallow water. We attempt to introduce the improved Boussinesq equation governing the experiments, which is solved by using a semi-analytical approach, called Pseudo-parameter Iteration method(PIM). Using various numerical experiments, we have observed that the wave-packet (propagating dispersive wave) experiences a phase shift after collision with a solitary wave. This phenomenon may be considered as a nonlinear wave-wave interaction in shallow water.

It is very diffcult to applied ergonomics data & experiments in industrial design. At the industrial design process attempted toadoption a egonomics. But sometimes easyto use ergonomics data and at other times very hard to adopted a element into a design process. Industrial design of the essence is a sensual act. As ergonomics data is to the hardware, sois the design sense to the software. The harmony are important to hardware & software of design process. New products demand to new form. Therefore, designer neglect to ergonomics experiments for user. Anyway, ergonomics experiments & data endlessly applied to more things year after year. This paper show improved computer front design with graphic, knobs size & control panel tilt angle.

This paper proposes a method for predicting maximum friction coefficients and optimal slip ratios as optimal control parameters for traction control or slip control of autonomous mobile robots on rough terrain. This paper focuses on strength of ground surface which indicates different characteristics depending on material types on surface. Strength of various material types can be estimated by Willoughby sinkage model and by a developed testbed which can measure forces, velocities, and displacements generated by wheel-terrain interaction. Estimated strength is collaborated on building improved Brixius model with friction-slip data from experiments with the testbed over sand and grass material. Improved Brixius model covers widespread material types in outdoor environments on predicting friction-slip characteristics depending on strength of ground surface. Thus, a prediction model for obtaining optimal control parameters is derived by partial differentiation of the improved Brixius model with respect to slip. This prediction model can be applied to autonomous mobile robots and finally gives secure maneuverability on rough terrain. Proposed method is verified by various experiments under similar conditions with the ones for real outdoor robots.

The traditional mechanical manometer is improved to develop more convenient and precise manometer in continuous measurement of the gas pressure in medium-low vacuum range (1x10$^{-1}$ -10 Torr.) Glass (solid) is used as a detector material of the improved manometer. Using the strain gauge adhered to thin glass board, mechanical strain corresponding to variation of pressure in measurement system is converted into quantity of electricity, and the quantity of electricity is amplified. Experiments have also shown that the improved manometer have more advantages in reproducibility, measured sensibility, and responsible velocity than taditional one.

In this paper, experiments to develop working clothes and evaluated, including the current and material-improved working clothes in relation to physiological functionality measurement. Experiments were conducted on subjects after wearing working clothes in an climate chamber, and the thermo-physiological response, such as human body temperature, micro-climate within the clothes, blood pressure, heart rate were measured. In this manner, the physiological functionality of improved working clothes was compared with that of current working clothes and evaluated. The summary of obtained results is as follows: For physiological functionality evaluation through material-improved working clothes, P working clothes showed significantly lower rectal temperature than C working clothes. For mean skin temperature, P's skin temperature was significantly higher than C's in the second half of the experiment. P working clothes's temperature around the thighs in Micro climate was significantly lower than that of the C working clothes. Also, humidity within the clothes showed similar trends. During the exercise period, C working clothes showed higher blood pressure than P, but P showed higher heart rates than C. Also, the oxygen uptake amount was higher in C than P during the exercise period, it explains that the energy consumption amount of P working clothes was smaller than that of C working clothes. Of the subjective evaluation, for temperature sensation, workers wearing P working clothes felt cooler. For humidity, C working clothes showed more humidity. For comfort, P working clothes were better, and for sense of fatigue, workers felt less tired wearing P working clothes. From results above, we can see that physiological functionality improved in the material-improved working clothes in the working clothes for construction site workers. The improvement of working clothes through functionality improvements not only will provide personal pleasantness to constriction site workers, but will also generate efficiency and productivity improvements at construction sites. All in all, the continuous study of functionality improvements in working clothes taking into consideration the human body's physiological responses is required.
