In this study, two aspects were analyzed about the robot for removal of explosive devices. First, the cost analyses were performed to provide a reasonable solution for the acquirement of the system. It is processed by an engineering estimate method and the process was consisted of two ways : a system development expense and a mass production unit price. In additions, the resultant cost analyses were compared between the cases excluding and including a mines detection system. As results, in the case of the acquirement of the robot system for removal of explosive devices, it is recommended that the performance by improving the mines detection ability should be considered preferentially rather than the cost because the material cost for the mines detection system is negligible compared to the whole system cost. Second, as a way for improving the system performance by the mine detection function, the carbon nanotube (CNT) based sensor technology was studied in terms of sensitivity and simple productivity with presenting its preliminary experimental results. The detection electrodes were formed by a photolithography method using a photosensitive CNT paste. As results, this method was shown as a scalable and expandable technology for the excellent mines detection sensors.

This paper is the result of a comparative analysis of crew members' workloads using the EMG and OWAS methods according to the fishing process before and after the improvement of the operating system of the experimental vessel, with the aim of improving operational efficiency and safety work of coastal improved stow net fishing vessels. The target crew members were three people with at least five years of experience on board the same fishing vessel as the experimental vessel. After improving the operating system, such as installing a power block crane and two capstans, change the location of the ball-roller, the time required for setting and hauling work decreased (p < .01), and the evaluation results by OWAS showed that the overall workload for setting and hauling net work decreased. The results of muscle activity analysis showed a decrease in lashing anchor work (p < .01) in the case of hauling net and in anchor dropping work in the case of setting net (p < .001). It is judged that the use of ball rollers in net handling has been reduced; consequently, work safety has been improved.

Public institutions have a responsibility to ensure the safety of their employees and the public. One way to do this is to implement a systematic safety inspection system based on risk assessments and continuous improvements. This study developed a systematic safety inspection system for public institutions that are ordered construction projects. The proposed system in this study consists of a three-step process: (1) developing safety grade evaluation tables, (2) preparing and conducting safety inspections, and (3) evaluating and improving safety management grades. The first step is to develop safety grade evaluation tables by analysis and diagnosis of the construction site's work type, disaster statistics, and related laws. The second step is to conduct safety inspections using the developed evaluation tables. The third step is to determine the safety management grade based on the results of the safety inspection, and to improve risk factors found during the safety evaluation. The proposed system was implemented in highway construction projects carried out by public institutions. The results showed that the proposed system has two major effects: (1) reducing accident-related deaths and injuries, (2) improving safety management levels by continuous evaluation and improvement. The proposed system can be utilized in construction projects ordered by public institutions to improve the level of occupational safety and health.

Purpose: The variation of the internal diameters of gun barrel incurs a lot of reworks in gun barrel manufacturing process and the significant quality problem of gun barrel. And it is likely to stem from the current measurement system for the internal diameter of gun barrel and the related manufacturing process as well. The purpose of this study is to improve the gun barrel manufacturing process through improving measurement system. Methods: The improved measurement system using laser can measure the internal diameters of gun barrel more accurately, and the properly adjusted honing process reduces the variation of internal diameters of gun barrel. Results: Comparing the mean square error of internal diameters for 6 gun barrels measured before and after process improvement shows that the variation of gun barrel internal diameters was significantly reduced after the process improvement. Conclusion: The introduction of improved measurement system for the internal diameters of gun barrel and the adjustment of related honing process results in the reduction of reworks of gun barrels and their internal diameter variations.

Using a disturbance observer is effective in enhancing the performance of dynamic system in presence of disturbances. Although various types of disturbance observers have been proposed to improve sensitivity of systems, there exist poor transient responses due to cross-couplings among disturbance observer loops. In this paper, dual disturbance observer (DOB) is proposed to reduce the effects of the cross-couplings. A different type of loop transfer function is proposed for external disturbance observer. While improving the sensitivity function by adding external DOB, it also provides improved complementary sensitivity function. The proposed dual DOB is applied to a commercial optical disk drive tracking system. It is shown that the dual DOB is an effective method in rejecting the effect of disturbance as well as improving the tracking performance.

This paper describes an improving cooling system in the composite plant. In order to save the energy, a plate-and-frame heat exchanger has been used to replace the traditional worm cooler. The composite plant in Thailand was studied as an illustrative case study. The experimental results demonstrating the saving in energy costs and some economic benefits of the proposed technique are obtained.

An Integrated Outage Management System (IOMS) is a utility owned, centralized information system. Using the Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) methodology, the IOMS integrates different databases and components of outage management systems to improve the quality of service of electrical power to customers. This paper describes the development of an IOMS and its related utility functionality. The design considerations, salient features, component integration, functional aspects, and implementation issues of the IOMS are discussed. Evidence shows that the IOMS implementation would result in improving the overall quality of electric power supply and effective outage management significantly.

In 2000, Standard Design Loads for Building was changed especially in seismic load. According to the change, seismic-resisting capacity of deteriorated apartment houses has to be reestimated. This research is to propose seismic-strengthening and improving methods of structural efficiency of RC deteriorated apartment houses. The analysis models were shear-wall system(36/58/79$m^{2}$) and beam-column system(11/19/25py) which were constructed in early 1980 and didn't consider seismic load. The definite methods are addition of shear walls and lightening of load. The story-drifts of shear wall systems exceed allowable story-drifts so that two methods was applied. The story-drifts of beam-columns system satisfy allowable story-drifts, thus the latter is applied. The seismic-resisting capacity of these systems was improved by the two methods. This research will be helpful to remodel deteriorated apartment houses.

In this paper proposes the soft-switching boost converter and MPPT control for improving the efficiency of PV system. The proposed converter designed H-bridge auxiliary resonant circuit. By this circuit, all of the switching devices perform the soft switching under the zero voltage and zero current condition. Therefore the periodic switching losses can be decreased at turn on, off. The soft switching boost converter designs for 1.5[kW] solar module of the power conversion. Thus, this soft switching boost converter is simulated by MATLAB simulation using Newton-Method algorithm. As a result, Proposed Soft Switching Converter compared to a typical boost converter switching loss was reduced about 61%. And the overall system efficiency was verified to increase about 3.3%.
