High-frequency electric resistance welding (HERW) technique is one of the most productive manufacturing method currently available for pipe and tube production because of its high welding speed. In this process, a heat input is controlled by skilled operators observing color and shape of bead but such a manual control can not provide reliability and stability required for manufacturing pipes of high grade quality because of a variety of bead shapes and noisy environment. In this paper, in an effort to provide reliable quality inspection, we propose a neural network-based method for classification of bead shape. The proposed method utilizes the structure of Kohonen network and is designed to learn the skill of the expert operators and to provide a good solution to classify bead shapes according to their welding conditions. This proposed method is implemented on the real pipe manufacturing process, and a series of experiments are performed to show its effectiveness.

In this paper, segmenting and classifying low contrast defects on flat panel display is one of the key problems for automatic inspection system in practice. Problems become more complicated when the quality of acquired image is degraded by the illumination irregularity. Many algorithms are developed and implemented successfully for the defects segmentation. However, vision algorithms are inherently prone to be dependent on parameters to be set manually. In this paper, one morphological segmentation algorithm is chosen and a technique using frequency domain analysis of input images is developed for automatically selection the morphological parameter. An extensive statistical performance analysis is performed to compare the developed algorithms.

Dynamic compaction is the ground improvement method by applying the impact energy. This impact energy can damage to adjacent structure in urban area. Therefore, if dynamic compaction method is applied, careful attention should be payed to surrounded structures. In this study, the method was performed in waste landfill and the frequency of vibrations were measured according to each distances, drop-heights, and vibrating directions. The measured data show that particle velocity bas low frequency and it is greatest in longitudinal direction. There was little differences between Maynes suggestion and measured data. Therefore, Maynes suggestion can be adopted if the range of vibration can be predicted. Also, It was found that minimum 45m distance is needed in order to satisfy the administrative code if dynamic compaction method is applied.

본 연구의 목적은 구조 시스템의 구조적 손상에 의한 고유주파수 감소율과 감쇠변수 증가율을 비교 분석하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 저주파 영역의 고유주파수와 비교적 높은 감쇠변수 특성을 갖는 2경간 H-Beam을 대상으로 실내실험과 수치해석을 수행하였으며, 충격하중에 대한 손상 전과 손상 후 응답신호를 각각 14개 위치에서 분석하였다. 각 위치에 대한 손상 전과 손상 후 응답신호는 푸리에 변환을 통하여 고유주파수 감소율을 분석하였으며, 감쇠변수 증가율은 웨이블릿 변환을 통하여 수행되었다. 웨이블릿 변환은 최대 웨이블릿 계수에 대응되는 스케일의 시간함수 분리가 가능하기 때문에 감쇠변수 평가에 대한 정확성을 높일 수 있다. 손상 전과 손상 후 계측된 응답신호에 대하여 고유주파수 감소율은 민감하지 못한 결과로 평가되었고, 감쇠변수 증가율은 비교적 큰 변화량을 보여 구조 시스템의 손상도 평가에 신뢰할 수 있는 결과를 보여주었다.

본 연구에서는 웨이블릿 변환을 적용한 시스템 감쇠비 평가에 있어서 고유주파수가 저주파 영역에 속하고, 비교적 높은 감쇠비를 갖는 응답신호에 대하여 웨이블릿 기저함수의 중심주파수 영향을 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 단일 모드로 구성된 신호와 일정 주파수를 이격시킨 분리 중첩 모드 신호 및 모드 주파수 성분을 근접시킨 인접 중첩 모드 신호에 대하여 수치해석으로 분석하고, H-Beam을 통한 실내실험을 수행하였다. 분석하고자 하는 모드의 고유주파수는 전체 스케일에 대한 대응 스케일로서 고려되고, 이러한 대응 스케일의 위치는 웨이블릿 기저함수의 중심주파수에 영향을 받게 된다. 따라서 각 모드의 고유주파수에 대응되는 스케일이 전체 스케일의 1/2에 위치되도록 웨이블릿 기저함수의 중심주파수가 선택될 때 감쇠비 평가에 대한 신뢰성이 향상 될 것이다.

Objectives Eyes, one of visual inspection regions, present important clues to pathological patterns including deficiency and excess patterns to the clinicians. The purpose of this study was to develop Eyes Inspection Questionnaire (EIQ) and to examine which items among the EIQ were more predictive of clinicians' determination for the deficiency and excess patterns. Methods Nine questionnaire items for Visual Inspection of Eyes were extracted through the literature review. These items were presented to the 4 Korean medical doctors who are specialized in visual inspection to conduct the Delphi method. The Korean medical doctors were asked to rate the importance of each items for the corresponding Visual Inspection of Eyes, using a Likert 5-point scale(the 3 points of importance as a cut-off point). Then, out of 75 photographs submitted to the Society of HyungSang Medicine in 2009, 30 portrait pictures were selected as samples. The samples were copied to make 60 sample pictures, and then randomly assigned to 4 clinicians. The 4 clinicians evaluated the 60 samples for excess and deficiency of the eyes and were asked to check the 6 questionnaire items. The results were recorded as 5-points-scale, and their average and standard deviations were calculated. Intra- class reliability test and multi regression test were performed using SPSS 13. Results Intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC) was between 0.750 to 0.841 (P<0.05). Indices for visual inspection of the eyes were: endowment of the bone structure around the eyes; brightness of the eyes; upward deviation of the eyes; eye shapes; and definition of iris. 76.92% of deficiency symptom patterns and 86.42% of the excess symptom patterns matched the patterns predicted by the visual inspection of the eyes, according to the frequency analysis. According to the multiple regression analysis, were significantly related to the excessive symptoms, and to the deficiency symptoms. Conclusion This study is the first attempt of development for checklist of excess and deficiency of Visual Inspection of Eyes and quantitative measurement of excess and deficiency using the Visual Inspection of Eyes by the visual inspection experts. Still, additional studies are needed regarding the relationship visual inspection methods have with existing standards of diagnosis.

Cast austenitic stainless steel(CASS) is used in the primary cooling piping system of nuclear power plant for it's relative low cost, corrosion resistance and easy of welding. However, the coarse-grain structure of cast austenitic stainless steel can strongly affect the inspectability of ultrasonic testing. The major problems encountered during inspection are beam skewing, high attenuation and high background noise of CASS component. So far, the best inspection performance involving CASS components have been achieved using low frequency TRL(Transmitter/Receiver side-by-side L wave) angle beam probe. But TRL technique could not detect shallow defect and it contains an uncertainty for sizing capability. Currently, most of researchers are studying to overcome these challenge issue. In this study, low-frequency phased array TRL technique used to detect and sizing the flaws in CF8A cast austenitic stainless steel.As conclusion, we could detect and size not only axial flaw but also circumferential flaw using low frequency phased array technique.

The elastic properties and thickness of mullite environmental barrier coatings grown through chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on silicon carbide substrates were measured using frequency domain photoacoustic microscopy. In this technique, extremely narrow bandwidth surface acoustic waves are generated with an amplitude modulated laser source. A photorefractive crystal based interferometer is used to detect the resulting surface displacement. The complex displacement field is mapped as a function of source-to-receiver distance in order to extract the wavelength of the surface acoustic wave at a given excitation frequency, and the phase velocity is determined. The coatings tested exhibited spatial variations in thickness and mechanical properties. The measured surface wave dispersion curves were used to extract an effective value for the elastic modulus and the coating thickness. Nanoindentation was used to validate the measurements of the effective elastic modulus. The average elastic modulus measured through the coating thickness using nanoindentation is compared to the effective modulus found using the photoacoustic system. Optical microscopy is used to validate the thickness measurements. The results indicate that the photoacoustic microscopy technique can be used to estimate the effective elastic properties in coatings exhibiting spatial inhomogeneities, potentially providing valuable feedback for the optimization of the CVD growth process.

석탑형 구조물의 동적거동은 접합부의 영향을 주로 받는 불연속 다자유도계 모델로 가정할 수 있다. 이 경우 석조 부재의 질량은 비교적 쉽게 파악할 수 있으나 석재 접촉면에서의 스프링상수는 결정하기가 곤란하다. 본 연구에서는 석탑형 구조물을 불연속 다자유도계 모델로 해석을 하는 방법과 고유진동수를 측정한 결과를 이용하여 역으로 스프링상수를 계산하는 방법을 제시하였다. 또한 사례 연구를 통해 측정된 고유진동수를 이용하여 석재와 석재면 사이의 스프링상수를 계산하는 과정을 구체적으로 제시하였다. 본 연구결과는 석탑형 문화재의 동적특정을 파악함으로써 주요 석탑형 문화재의 내진안전성 여 부 판단 및 보호대책 수립에 활용할 수 있을 것이며 진동이나 횡력에 대한 구조안전성 평가를 하는 과정에서도 유용할 것으로 기대된다.
