In this study, data collected from geotechnical instrumentation, analyzers using Stochastic methods for evaluating the state of law and the automation program was developed. Is expected based data driven non-parametric methods modeling may be useful for evaluation of complex geotechnical instrumentation installed on the system from the measurements collected. Result of the verification of assessment techniques developed by the sensing data collected from the actual ground structures (reinforced retaining wall and tunnel), PCA analysis techniques applied to the present study was to determine the structural behavior and environmental factors.

This article is an addendum to the authors’ previous article (Kim, J. et al. (2008) Plant Cell 20, 307-319). The instrumentation and software described in this article were used to analyze the circadian leaf movement in the previous article. Here, we provide detailed and practical information on the instrumentation and the software. The source code of the LMA program is freely available from the authors. The circadian clock regulates a wide range of cyclic physiological responses with a 24 hour period in most organisms. Rhythmic leaf movement in plants is a typical robust manifestation of rhythms controlled by the circadian clock and has been used to monitor endogenous circadian clock activity. Here, we introduce a relatively easy, inexpensive, and simple approach for measuring leaf movement circadian rhythms using a USB-based web camera, public domain software and a Leaf Movement Assay (LMA) program. The LMA program is a semi-automated tool that enables the user to measure leaf lengths of individual Arabidopsis seedlings from a set of time-series images and generates a wave-form output for leaf rhythm. This is a useful and convenient tool for monitoring the status of a plant's circadian clock without an expensive commercial instrumentation and software.

In order to cope with the occurrence of abnormal operation, rotatory condition monitoring system for guide roller of finishing train in wire rolling has been developed. In this study, proximity sensor and its holding devices that could overcome severe in-situ measurement conditions was designed and MMI software using C++ was programmed. Performance of the developed system turned out to be good enough as results of in-line test for POSCO #3 wire rolling mill. It is expected to contribute to prevent the cobble and the grade-down of products caused by the abnornormal operation of guide rollers.

Renewable energy from the environment in a variety of ways to obtain various forms of energy. Recent functional polymer composites (EAP) to take advantage of the pressure and vibration of physical energy into electrical energy storage, to take advantage of current collector technology is attracting attention. EAP, a type of IPMC (Ionic exchange Polymer Composite) got a hydrophilic properties, marine power plants is being studied as a source of energy. Studies using IPMC marine power plant because there is a constraint on the time, IPMC in real time, which can measure the power generated by the system is required, Due to the nature of the power plant to be floating in the sea through the power cable and data transmission measurement system is hard drive self-generation and wireless data transmission system is required. In this study, IPMC marine power plant is to develop a system of monitoring. IPMC for several power plants to build individual current-voltage measurement system, CAN communication with the main system to collect all the information and wireless data transmission to occur, and Generation of electricity using solar energy to building systems in real-time without an external power supply to drive the measuring system is to develop a monitoring system.

Purpose: As application-specific wireless sensor networks are gaining popularity, this paper discusses the development and field performance of the GHAN, a greenhouse area network system to monitor, control, and access greenhouse microenvironments. GHAN, which is an upgraded system, has many new functions. It is an intelligent wireless sensor and actuator network (WSAN) system for next-generation greenhouses, which enhances the state of the art of greenhouse automation systems and helps growers by providing them valuable information not available otherwise. Apart from providing online spatial and temporal monitoring of the greenhouse microclimate, GHAN has a modified vapor pressure deficit (VPD) fuzzy controller with an adaptive-selective mechanism that provides better control of the greenhouse crop VPD with energy optimization. Using the latest soil-matrix potential sensors, the GHAN system also ascertains when, where, and how much to irrigate and spatially manages the irrigation schedule within the greenhouse grids. Further, given the need to understand the microclimate control dynamics of a greenhouse during the crop season or a specific time, a statistical assessment tool to estimate the degree of optimality and spatial variability is proposed and implemented. Methods: Apart from the development work, the system was field-tested in a commercial greenhouse situated in the region of Punjab, India, under different outside weather conditions for a long period of time. Conclusions: Day results of the greenhouse microclimate control dynamics were recorded and analyzed, and they proved the successful operation of the system in keeping the greenhouse climate optimal and uniform most of the time, with high control performance.

Domestic slope related measuring system are mainly depending on manual and visual measurements and technical development for natural slopes is poor since the technology is developed focusing on artificial cut slopes. In addition, landslide with a debris flow is occurring frequently due to recent climate abnormally and heavy rains but early forecasts and prevention of disasters are in poor condition. Therefore, construction of ubiquitous sensor network (USN) capable of detecting dangers of landslide for rapid countermeasures is necessary. In this study, new measurements devices and measurement management techniques in compliance with domestic conditions are prepared by establishing ubiquitous based landslide monitoring system and standards of measurement management.

The goals of developments in nuclear medicine instrumentation are to offer a higher-quality image and to aid diagnosis, prognosis assessment or treatment planning and monitoring. It is necessary for physicists and engineers to improve or design new instrumentation and techniques, and to implement, validate, and apply these new approaches in the practice of nuclear medicine. The researches in physical properties of detectors and crystal materials and advances in image analysis technology have improved quantitative and diagnostic accuracy of nuclear medicine images. This review article presents recent developments in nuclear medicine instrumentation, including scatter and attenuation correction, new detector technology, tomographic image reconstruction methods, 511 keV imaging, dual modality imaging device, small gamma camera, PET developments, image display and analysis methods.

Instrumentation and control system in nuclear power plant performs protecting, controling and monitoring safety operation of Nuclear Power Plant. As cyber attack to the control equipment of instrumentation and control system can cause reactor shutdown and radiation release, it is required to design the instrumentation and control system considering cyber security in accordance with regulatory guides and industrial standards. In this paper, we proposed a design method of uni-directional communication structure which is required in the design of defense-in-depth model according to regulatory guides and industrial standards and we implemented a communication board with the proposed method. This communication board was tested in various test environments and test items and we concluded it can provide uni-directional communication structure required to design of defense-in-depth model against cyber attack by analyzing the results. The proposed method and implemented communication board were applied in the design of SMART (system-integrated modular advanced reactor) I&C (instrumentation and control) systems.
