In modern society, people tend to spend their time on various types of chairs. However, it is not easy for a designer to design a comfortable chair, because satisfaction with the chair depends not only on the quantitative elements such as size, but also on the qualitative element such as the user's feeling. To deal with these problems, there have been many studies on designing an ergonomics chair. In this paper, the hapticaided design (HAD) system was adopted to design the ergonomics chair. Based on the HAD system, the designer can experience whether the chair is comfortable or not through the haptic device, and also can modify the design parameters instantaneously. The haptic chair capable of controlling the design parameters in real time was proposed as a haptic simulator. The controllable parameters such as the seat height, reclining angle, stiffness of the backrest, and so on were selected based on the previous researches related to ergonomics chairs. It will reduce the development cost and time by replacing the process of making the real mock-up and prototype with the haptic chair.

Korean-peacekeeper's transparent armors in Iraq showed delamination, cracking and clouding a decade ago. And there were also similar deterioration recurrences in KLTV during the operational test a few years ago. Also, the differences between operational capability & lab Bullet-proof test condition, and insufficiency of military protection spec resulted in incomplete bullet-proof results. Moreover, although so many ground weapon systems have been developed, there were not secure test & evaluation codes to verify transparent armoured glasses equal to advanced-overseas products. So in this study, first, environmental test codes were established that all tests should be carried out as the application of only one specimen with newly adopted thermal shock test instead of completing each test with different one. Second, protection standards were integrated through the analysis of global developed country's specifications and reinforced as adding to the real mock-up condition if vehicle's glasses are smaller than standard specimen. Hereby, by applying to test-codes which including actual operational & vehicular conditions, the gap between development test and operational environment was minimized.

In this paper, a real time diagnostic algorithm fur estimating the impact location by loose parts is proposed. It is composed of two modules such as the alarm discrimination module (ADM) and the impact-location estimation module(IEM). ADM decides whether the detected signal that triggers the alarm is the impact signal by loose parts or the noise signal. When the decision from ADM is concluded as the impact signal, the beginning time of burst-type signal, which the impact signal has usually such a form in time domain, provides the necessary data fur IEM. IEM by use of the arrival time method estimates the impact location of loose parts. The overall results of the estimated impact location are displayed on a computer monitor by the graphical mode and numerical data composed of the impact point, and thereby a plant operator can recognize easily the status of the impact event. This algorithm can perform the diagnosis process automatically and hence the operator's burden and the possible operator's error due to lack of expert knowledge of impact signals can be reduced remarkably. In order to validate the application of this method, the test experiment with a mock-up (flat board and reactor) system is performed. The experimental results show the efficiency of this algorithm even under high level noise and potential application to Loose Part Monitoring System (LPMS) for improving diagnosis capability in nuclear power plants.

Venetian blinds are used with windows to improve the uniformity ratio of illuminance and interior daylighting distribution under direct sunlit conditions. The main objective of Venetian blinds shading system is to obstruct direct sunlight and at the same time allow daylight to penetrate into the room. Venetian blinds would have greater effect on the interior daylighting condition under clear sky which has both skylight and sunlight than overcast sky which has only skylight. However, due to the lack of data, design and evaluation tools, it is difficult for architects to choose or install venetian blinds during the building design stages. The purpose of this study was to develop an analysis method for shading and daylighting effects of Venetian blinds using the RADIANCE program. The major variables related to the venetian blinds included blinds's slat angle and the ratio of slat width to window height, the radius slat of curvature and the building azimuth. In this study, a series of parametric physical mock-up model measurements and genblinds command in the RADIANCE simulations. The results of this study will provide building designers with the design data at early design stages.

Objectives In this study, we developed a mock-up of the system for Sasang Constitutional (SC) diagnosis. This system consists of 5 devices which are the face analyzer, the voice analyzer, the skin analyzer, the pulse analyzer, and the computer-based questionnaire. Our goal is to evaluate the repeatability of the system. Methods Each device is capable of classifying SC types. The classification probability of the integrated system for the SC types was obtained by summing the probability from each device. For evaluating the repeatability of the system, we collected data for 5 subjects, and repeated the measurement three times for each individual. The average and standard deviation were used for calculating the Coefficient of Variation. Results The results showed that the repeatability of the classification probability of the integrated system is about 8%, which implies the system is repeatable. Conclusions To increase usability of this system, it is desirable for the system to offer information on health condition of the user. The integrated constitutional diagnosis system will be upgraded to complement the convenience and to develop the diagnostic algorithm for the user's health condition.

A push pull hood system is frequently applied to control contaminants evaporated from an open surface tank in recent years. Efficiency of push pull hood system is affected by various parameters, such as cross draft, vessel shapes, size of tanks surface, liquid temperature, and so on. Among these, velocity of cross draft might be one of the most influencing factor for determining the ventilation efficiency. To take account of the effect of cross draft velocities over 0.38m/s, a flow adjustment of ${\pm}$20% should be considered into the push and +20% into the pull flow system Although there are many studies about the efficiency evaluation of push pull hood system based on CFDs(Computational Fluid Dynamics) and experiments, there have been no reports regarding the influence of velocities and direction of cross-draft on push-pull hood efficiency. This study was conducted to investigate the influence of cross draft direction and velocities on the capture efficiency of the push-pull ventilation system. Smoke visualization method was used along with mock-up of push-pull hood systems to verify the ventilation efficiency by experiments. When the cross-draft blew from the same origins of the push flows, the efficiency of the system was in it's high value, but it was decreased significantly when the cross-draft came from the opposite side of push flows Moreover, the efficiency of the system dramatically decreased when the cross-draft of open surface tank was faster than 0.4m/s.

This paper proposes a loose part monitoring system (LPMS) design with a signal processing method based on fuzzy logic. Considering fuzzy characteristics of metallic impact waveform due to not only interferences from various types of noises in an operating nuclear power plant but also complex wave propagation paths within a monitored mechanical structure, the proposed LPMS design incorporates the comprehensive relation among impact signal features in the fuzzy rule bases for the purposes of alarm discrimination and impact diagnosis improvement. The impact signal features for the fuzzy rule bases include the rising time, the falling time, and the peak voltage values of the impact signal envelopes. Fuzzy inference results based on the fuzzy membership values of these impact signal features determine the confidence level data for each signal feature. The total integrated confidence level data is used for alarm discrimination and impact diagnosis purposes. Through the perpormance test of the proposed LPMS with mock-up structures and instrumentation facility, test results show that the system is effective in diagnosis of the loose part impact event(i.e., the evaluation of possible impacted area and degree of impact magnitude) as well as in suppressing false alarm generation.

This paper outlines the development of a non-pulsatile axial flow type blood pump control system. By utilizing blood pressure and heart rate, this system can assist the left ventricle in controlling blood pressure and blood volume. The system is comprised of a blood pump, signal sensor, signal interface, and signal-processing component. A control algorithm is also proposed which can control non-pulsatile, continuous blood flow in the human circulatory system. To facilitate the control required for non-pulsatile blood pump in a physiological system, an experimental control rule was developed utilizing ECG and blood pressure data, both of which are easily detectable variables in the body. The system was then tested using a mock-up circulation system and we found that it is possible that this systems could be temporarily used in clinic.

A novel particle removal system for air handling unit (AHU) of subway station was evaluated experimentally. The novel system was designed in order to minimize the maintenance cost by applying axial-flow cyclones. The system consists of multiple cyclone units and dust trap. Based on our previous numerical study, it was found to be effective for removal $1\sim10{\mu}m$ sized dust particles. In this study, we manufactured the mock-up model and evaluated the model experimentally. Liquid and solid test particles were generated for evaluating collection efficiency of the system and the pressure drop was monitored. The collection efficiency was varied from 41.2% to 85.9% with increasing the sizes of particle from 1 to $6.5{\mu}m$ by particle count ratio of inlet and outlet. The pressure drop was maintained constant less than $20mmH_2O$. In addition, the collection efficiency was estimated by total mass for solid test particles. It was found that the collection efficiency was 65.7% by particle mass ratio of inlet and outlet. It shows that present system can replace current pre-filters used in subway HVAC system for removing particulate matters with minimal operational cost.
