In this paper, an automatic gear inspection system has been developed using the computer aided vision system. Image processing and data analysis algorithms for gear inspection have been investigated and were shown to perform quickly with high accuracy. As a result, dimensions of a gear can be measured upto few micrometer size in real time. In addition, the system can be applied to a practical manufacturing process even under noisy conditions.

현재 비구면렌즈를 만들기 위해서는 다양한 방법이 있다. Glass종류의 가공시 초정밀 절삭가공기(DTM)에서 가공하거나 정밀 연삭기를 가지고 가공하게 된다. 이 과정에서 렌즈 표면에 공구 흔적이나 표면거칠기 개선을 위해 연마작업을 하게 되는데, 사용하는 장비가 폴리싱 머신이다. 축대칭인 폴리싱머신의 경우 X, Z, $\theta$로 동시 3축제어가 가능하다. 하지만 이 장비의 경우 연마에서 원하는 형상정밀도와 표면거칠기를 얻기 위해 각축들의 위치정밀도와 분해능이 높은 부품을 사용하여 기계자체가 고가라는 점이 단점으로 작용한다.(중략)

망을 통해 동일한 데이터를 다수의 고객에게 전송하는 파일 전송 서비스, 뉴스 서비스, 인터넷 방송 서비스들이 증가함에 따라 멀티캐스트를 이용한 효율적인 데이터 전송에 대한 요구가 증가하고 있다. 신뢰적인 멀티캐스트 프로토콜을 송신자로부터 손실된 패킷을 복구하거나 이웃한 지역의 응답자에게 복구 패킷을 요청함으로써 손실 복구를 수행한다. 본 논문에서는 신뢰적 멀티캐스트를 제공하기 위해 손실이 발생하였을 경우 손실 회복에 사용할 수 있는 다중 응답자를 이용한 손실 복구 기법을 제안한다. 이 기법은 LSM[1] 모델을 기반으로, 다수의 요청 패킷에 대해 동적으로 응답자의 수를 증가시켜 다중 응답자들이 손실 복구를 수행하도록 함으로써 손실 복구 시간을 감소시킨다. 제안한 방식의 성능은 시뮬레이션을 통해 증명한다.

본 논문에서는 노이즈 모델에 기반한 훼손된 얼굴 영상의 인증하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 먼저 학습 단계에서 노이즈 파라미터의 변화에 의해 훼손된 영상을 생성한다. 그 훼손된 영상과 노이즈 파라미터는 PCA에 의해 훼손된 영상과 노이즈 파라미터들의 선형 조합으로 표현된다. 테스트 단계에서는 훼손된 영상으로 LSM(Least-square minimization)방법을 적용하여 훼손된 영상의 노이즌 파라미터를 추정한다. 그리고 추정된 노이즈 파라미터를 가지고 원본 영상으로부터 합성된 영상을 생성하고, 그것을 테스트 영상과 인증한다. 실험 결과는 제안된 방법이 노이즈 파라미터를 정확하게 추정하여 얼굴 인증의 성능 개선 가능성을 보여준다.

In this paper, the states and the parameters in the dynamic system are simultaneously estimated by applying the UKF(Unscented Kalman Filter), which is widely used for estimating the state of non-linear systems. Estimating the parameter is very important in various fields, such as system control, modeling, analysis of performance, and prediction. Most of the dynamic systems which are dealt with in engineering have non-linearity as well as some noise. Therefore, the parameter estimation is difficult. This paper estimates the states and the parameters applying to the UKF, which is a non-linear filter and has strong noise. The augmented equation is used by including the addition of the parameter factors to the original state equation of the system. Moreover, it is simulated by applying to a 2-DOF(Degree of Freedom) dynamic system composed of the pendulum and the slide. The measurement noise of the dynamic equation is assumed to be a Gaussian distribution. As the simulation results show, the proposed parameter estimation performs better than the LSM(Least Square Method). Furthermore, the estimation errors and convergence time are within three percent and 0.1 second, respectively. Consequentially, the UKF is able to estimate the system states and the parameters for the system, despite having measurement data with noise.

LSM is widely used as a cathode material in SOFC, because of its high electrochemical activity, good stability and compatibility with YSZ electrolyte at high temperature. However, LSM in traditional cathode materials will not generate a satisfactory performance at intermediate temperature. In order to reduce the polarization resistance of cell with the operating temperature of SOFC system, the cathode material of LSCF is one of the most suitable electrode materials because of its high mixed ionic and electronic conductivity. In this report, cathode material, $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_3$ powder for intermediate temperature SOFC was synthesized by Pechini method using the starting materials such as nitrate of La, Sr, Co and Fe including ethylene glycol, etc. As a result, the synthesized powder that calcined above $700^{\circ}C$ exhibits successfully perovskite structure, indicating phase-pure of LSCF. Moreover, the particle size, surface area, crystal structure and morphology of the synthesized oxide powders were characterized by SEM, XRD, and BET, etc. In order to evaluate the electrochemical performance for the synthesized powder, slury mixture using the synthesized cathode material was coated by screen-printing process on the anode-supported electrolyte which was prepared by a tape casting method and co-sintering. Finally, electrochemical studies of the SOFC unit cell, including measurements such as power density and impedance, were performed.

Ni-YSZ supported button cells were prepared by spray-coating YSZ and screen-printing YSZ-LSM powder as an electrolyte and oxygen electrode on Ni-YSZ cermet disks. In order to identify the polarization loss mechanism in high temperature electrolysis current-voltage characteristics coupled with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were investigated as a function of temperature, current load, and the humidity. The effects of the different current collectors of platinum and silver for oxygen electrodes were compared. With Ag current collector two polarization losses were distinguished. The high frequency component was attributed to the Ni-YSZ cermet which was less susceptible to temperature variation but increasing in loss with humidity. The lower frequency component was attributed to the LSM electrode. Platinum current collector led to a much lower polarization loss.

Evidence on the effect of $O_2$ reduction or current passage on the microstructure and morphology of the LSM and Ni-YSZ electrodes in solid oxide fuel cells. The microstructures of the electrodes were characterized as plate-like agglomerates. Current of $0.1\;A/cm^2$, $0.2\;A/cm^2$, $0.3\;A/cm^2$, at $800^{\circ}C$ were passed for 3 h. Then, we observed the cell structure and measured the cell performance before and after the experiment. There are changed with the load condition. The TPB of the cell increased when the cell structure changed. In particular, the decrease in activation loss is apparent as load increased. As a result, cell performance improved, and we confirmed that a optimal load condition existed.

This study is focused on reliability based design optimization (RBDO) using moving least squares. A response surface is used to derive a limit-state equation for reliability based design optimization. Response surface method (RSM) with least square method (LSM) or Kriging will be used as a response surface. RSM is fast to make the response surface. On the other hand, RSM has disadvantage to make the response surface of nonlinear equation. Kriging can make the response surface in nonlinear equation precisely but needs considerable amount of computations. The moving least square method (MLSM) is made of both methods (RSM with LSM+Kriging). Numerical results by MLSM are compared with those by LMS in Rosenbrock function and six-hump carmel back function. The RBDO of engine duct of smart UAV is pursued in this paper. It is proved that RBDO is useful tool for aerospace structural optimal design problems.

Strontium doped lanthanum manganite (LSM) with perovskite structure for SOFC cathode material shows high electrical conductivity and good chemical stability, whereas the electrical conductivity at intermediate temperature below $800^{\circ}C$ is not sufficient due to low oxygen ion conductivity. The approach to improve electrical conductivity is to make more oxygen vacancies by substituting alkaline earths (such as Ca, Sr and Ba) for La and/or a transition metal (such as Fe, Co and Cu) for Mn. Among various cathode materials, $LaSrMnCuO_3$ has recently been suggested as the potential cathode materials for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). As for the Cu doping at the B-site, it has been reported that the valence change of Mn ions is occurred by substituting Cu ions and it leads to formation of oxygen vacancies. The electrical conductivity is also affected by doping element at the A-site and the co-doping effect between A-site and B-site should be described. In this study, the $La_{1-x}Sr_xMn_{0.8}Cu_{0.2}O_{3{\pm}{\delta}}$ ($0{\leq}x{\leq}0.4$) systems were synthesized by a combined EDTA-citrate complexing process. The crystal structure, morphology, thermal expansion and electrical conductivity with different Sr contents were studied and their co-doping effects were also investigated.
