  • Generally, welding gap is a serious factor of a falling-off in weld quality among various kind of weld defect. Welding gap is created between two work piece in GMAW(Gas Metal Arc Welding) of horizontal fillet weld because surface of workpiece is not flat by cutting process. In these days, there were many attempts to detect welding gap. though we prevalently use the vision sensor or arc sensor in welding process, it is difficult to detect welding gap for improvement of welding quality. But we have a trouble to find relationship between welding gap and many welding parameters due to non-linearity of welding process. As mentioned about the various difficult problem, we can detect welding gap precisely using neural networks which are able to model non-linear function. Also, this paper was proposed real-time monitoring of weld bead shape to find effect of welding gap and to estimate weld quality. Monitoring of weld bead shape examined the correlation of welding parameters with bead eometry using learning ability of neural networks. Finally, the developed system, welding gap detecting system and bead shape monitoring system, is expected to the successful capability of automation of welding process by result of simulation.

  • This study aims to explore and understand the role of knowledge intensive service activities in the industrial innovation of Korea. It analyzes public and private service inputs to the innovation of manufacturers. The contribution of KISs to the innovation of both service suppliers and manufacturers was analyzed by using survey questionnaire. The results of the analysis revealed that the contribution of KISs to the innovation capability of manufacturers is significant. Large manufacturers that hold internal capability to supply KISs are also active in using external KISs. The manufacturing firms that utilized KISs intensively proved to be more innovative than those did not. Heavy KISs users also entertained benefits of capability enhancement as they improved monitoring and achieved efficient application of knowledge asset into product and process innovation. The role of public KISs in the innovation of manufacturers appeared to be indirect and done mainly through education and public R&D activities. Direct input, such as public software service, was not utilized as much in service suppliers themselves. The major reason is that public KISs may not be relevant to their actual needs. Manufacturers have implemented both tighter integration of familiar KISs and loosely coupled unfamiliar KISs.

  • The feasibility of using an adaptive resonance network (ART2) with unsupervised learning capability for too] wear detection in turning operations is investigated. Specifically, acoustic emission (AE) and cutting force signals were measured during machining, the multichannel AR coefficients of the two signals were calculated and then presented to the network to make a decision on tool wear. If the presented features are significantly different from previously learned patterns associated with a fresh tool, the network will recognize the difference and form a new category m worn tool. The experimental results show that tool wear can be effectively detected with or without minimum prior training using the self-organization property of the ART2 network.

  • This article reviews the art and practice of strategic management process in hospitals today, in order to help hospital administrators for managing strategic management system in their hospitals. The strategic management process model in this article is based on an integrated approach combining traditional environmental model with resource-based model of strategy. The components of the model are consisted of five steps: (1)formulating objectives, strategic assessment by external environmental analysis, internal capability analysis, TOWS analysis and marketing audit, (3)strategy choice considering context and criteria of choice, (4)program implementation through operational planning, resource allocation, and conversion, and (5)control by monitoring and evaluating hospital outputs. This article deals with many aspects of issues inherent in every step on this strategic management process.

  • An increasing attention is paid to STEP-NC, the next generation CNC controller interfacing STEP-compatible data. In this paper, we first propose an Architecture for the STEP-NC (called FBCC: Feature Baled CNC Controller) accepting feature code compatible with STEP-data, and executing NC motion feature by feature while monitoring the execution status. The main thrust of the paper has been to develop an automatic on-line tool path generation and modification scheme for milling operation. The tool path it generated iota each feature by decomposing into a finite number of primitive features. The key function in the new scheme is haw to accommodate unexpected execution results. In our scheme, the too1 path plinker is designed to have a tracing capability iota the tool path execution so that a new path can be generated from the point where the operation is stopped. An illustrative example is included to show the capability of the developed algorithm.

  • There are several models for process quality assurance by quality system (ISO 9000), process capability analysis, acceptance control chart and so on. When a high level process capability has been achieved, it takes a long time to monitor the process shift, so it is sometimes necessary to develop a quicker monitoring system. To achieve a quicker quality assurance model for high-reliability process, this paper presents a model for process quality assurance when the fraction nonconforming is very small. We design an acceptance control chart based on variable quality characteristic and time-censored accelerated testing. The distribution of the characteristics is assumed to be normal or lognormal with a location parameter of the distribution that is a linear function of a stress. The design parameters are sample size, control limits and sample proportions allocated to low stress. These paramaters are obtained under minimization of the relative variance of the MLE of location parameter subject to APL and RPL constraints.

  • The process capability indices have been widely used in manufacturing industries to provide numerical measures of process potential and performance. This study is concerned with process controls and adjustments by incapability index $C_{pp}$ and its sub-indices. A monitoring for $\^{C}_{pp}$ would provide a convenient way to monitor changes on process capability after statistical control is established, since $C_{pp}$ simultaneously measures process variability and centering. Further, we can separate charting of process location and variability by sub-indices of $C_{pp}$, ($C_{ia}$, $C_{ip}$), without returning to $\={x}$-R chart, even though an out-of-control signals on $\^{C}_{pp}$ control chart is found.

  • A multi-purpose environmental monitoring system has been developed as a commercially available standard using the technique of hetero-core spliced fiber optic sensors, for the purposes of monitoring large-scale structures and preserving natural environments. The monitoring system has been tested and evaluated in a possible outdoor condition, in view of the full-scale operation at actual sites to be monitored. Additionally, the developed system in this work conveniently provides us with various options of sensor modules intended for monitoring such physical quantities as displacement, distortion, pressure, binary states, and liquid adhesion. Two channels of optical fiber line were monitored in each channel, three displacement sensor modules were connected in series, in order to examine the performance to a pseudo-cracking experiment in the outdoor situation and to clarify temperature influences an the system, in terms of the coupling of optical connectors and the OTDR stability. The results from the pseudo-cracking experiment agreed with the actual cracks, by means of calculation, based an the detected displacement values and their geometrical arrangement of the used sensor modules. The temperature change, ranging from 10 to $20^{\circ}C$ resulting from the 10-days free running operation, was found to influence the system stability of ${\pm}10{\mu}m$, primarily due to the coupling instability of the used optical connectors. It was found that fusion splicing, rather than the use of connectors, reduced the fluctuation dawn to ${\pm}2{\mu}m$. The specification and performance of various option modules have been demonstrated to show the capability of inspecting various physical quantities by use of the single system, which would be suitable for multi-purpose environmental monitoring.

  • 광섬유센서는 전자파 무간섭, 부식 방지, 다중화 등의 장점들을 갖고 있어 다양한 상태 감시 시스템을 위한 연구에 많이 활용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 광섬유센서 기반의 인체 근육 상태 감시 시스템을 제안한다. 상용화되어 있는 인체 상태 감시 센서는 전자기 기반의 센서가 대부분이다. 이는 전자기 간섭 및 왜곡의 우려가 있어, 이를 보완하고 장치의 간소화 및 사용자 편의성을 위해 광섬유 브래그 격자센서를 사용하였다. 근육 상태의 지표가 되는 근육 수축 및 이완을 측정하기 위해 원주방향으로의 운동 감시가 가능한 밴드형태의 광섬유 브래그 격자센서 모듈을 제작하였다. 그리고 광섬유 브래그 격자센서 모듈의 적용성 평가를 위해 단축 인장시험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과 인장 크기에 따른 브래그 파장 변화가 상호 연관성을 보였으며, 이를 통해 브래그 격자센서 기반의 근육 상태 감시 시스템 개발의 가능성을 확인하였다.
