본 논문에서는 실내 보안지역내의 인간 출입을 통제하기위해 보안로봇을 이용한 출입통제 기능을 수행한 시스템 및 연구결과를 제시하고 있다. 제안된 로봇은 환경인식을 위한 레이저파인더를 탑재하고 보안지역을 상시 관찰을 수행하며 출입금지 구역에 인간을 출입이나 진행을 감지했을 때, 로봇이 인간의 속도벡터를 계산 및 주행할 경로를 계획하고 인간의 진행방향을 차단할 수 있도록 예측된 경로를 따라 주행을 하게 된다. 이때, 인간의 움직임은 포인터 물체로 간주하였으며 로봇의 기구학에 기반하여 인간의 위치를 추정한다. 실내에서 계속적인 환경변화에 대해 로봇은 감시기능 수행하게 된다. 통제구역에 대한 진입을 인식하게 되면 인간의 움직임의 반대방향으로 주행하여 진입차단 기법을 제시한다. 제안된 연구결과를 검정하기위해 로봇을 이용한 위치추정 및 추적 실험결과를 제시하였다.

본 논문은 차륜형 캐터필러 및 좌석 위치 가변 구조를 갖는 휠체어 계단 이동 보조기기의 구조에서 비롯되는 계단 이동 중 직진 주행 이탈 상황을 모델링 하고 추정 및 보정하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 주행 이탈 상황은 플랫폼의 Yawing 상황 모델 분석으로 주행 환경 특성상 Roll, Pitch와 Yaw 사이에 관계를 이용하여 Yaw값 변화 추이를 추정 하였으며, 차륜 구동 제어기의 제어변수 및 좌석 위치 제어 변수로 활용하였다. 정량적 검증 결과 약 10°의 Yawing 상황에서 약 7초 내외로 직진성 보정을 확인 하였으며, 좌석 위치 변화로 경로 보정간 회전 각속도를 47.5% 감소 시켜 직진성 보정에 효과가 있음을 확인 하였다.

The control rod assembly controls reactor power by adjusting its position during normal operation and shuts down chain reactions by its free drop under scram conditions. Therefore, the drop performance of the control rod assembly is important for the safety of a nuclear reactor. In this study, the drop performance of the conceptually designed control rod assembly for the prototype generation IV sodium-cooled fast reactor that is being developed at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute as a next-generation nuclear reactor was experimentally investigated. For the performance test, the test facility and test procedure were established first, and several free drop performance tests of the control rod assembly under different flow rate conditions were then carried out. Moreover, performance tests under several types and magnitudes of seismic loading conditions were also conducted to investigate the effects of seismic loading on the drop performance of the control rod assembly. The drop time of the conceptually designed control rod assembly for 0% of the tentatively designed flow rate was measured to be 1.527 seconds, and this agrees well with the analytically calculated drop time. It was also observed that the effect of seismic loading on the drop time was not significant.

전방향 모바일 로봇은 로봇의 방향을 바꿀 필요 없이 어떤 방향으로든 움직일 수 있어 여러 응용 분야에서 적용이 쉽고 뛰어난 기동성을 제공한다. 전방향 모바일 로봇은 마찰과 같은 비선형 동적 성분을 가지고 있어 정확히 모델링하기에 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 비선형 성분을 제거하기 위하여 모바일 로봇의 역 다이내믹과 적분 슬라이딩 모드 제어기법을 사용하여 모바일 로봇 시스템을 선형화하고, 제안된 제어기법의 최적 성능을 구현하기 위하여 유전알고리즘을 사용하여 위치 및 속도 이득을 최적화한다. 성능 평가 결과 유전알고리즘을 적용한 제어기법이 임의의 이득을 갖는 제어기법보다 뛰어난 성능을 나타내었다. 그리고 제안된 역 다이내믹과 적분 슬라이딩 모드 제어기법은 다른 제어기법에서도 적용될 수 있으며, 특히 선형제어시스템 설계에 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.

A transportation system of single wafer has been developed to be applied to semiconductor manufacturing process of the next generation. In this study, the experimental apparatus consists of two kinds of track, one is for propelling a wafer, so called control track, the other is for generating an air film to transfer a wafer, so called transfer track. The wafer transportation speed has been evaluated by the numerical and the experimental methods for three types of nozzle position a..ay (i.e., the front-, face- and rear-array) in an air levitation system. Test facility for 300mm wafer has been equipped with two control tracks and one transfer track of 1500mm length from the starting point to the stopping point. From the present results, it is found that the experimental values of the wafer transportation speed are well in agreement with the computed ones. Namely, the computed values of the maximum wafer transportation speed $V_{max}$ are slightly higher than the experimental ones by about $15{\times}20%$. The disparities in $V_{max}$ between the numerical and the experimental results become smaller as the air velocity increases. Also, at the same air flow rate, the order of wafer transportation speeds is : $V_{max}$ for the front-array > $V_{max}$ for the face-array > $V_{max}$ for the rear-array. However, the face-array is rather more stable than any other type of nozzle array to ensure safe transportation of a wafer.

In this paper, we have developed the 6 DOF force display system to be based on the single PC. The system is composed of the force display device, the force reflecting rendering algorithm and the high-speed controller. The previous systems had a problem, that must adopt high performance workstation or 2-PC in order to control the graphics speedily and stably. In this paper, it is possible to improve the problem as to develop its exclusive controller and new rendering algorithm. The proposed new rendering algorithm is based on the Proxy algorithm, which can convert information of the position, the velocity, and the haptic information into the force-data. Especially, as to use the proxy algorithm, we can construct dynamical virtual-environment with the elasticity, the viscosity, the mass, and the friction force. As the result of the experiment, we found that our system has much superior characteristics than some other haptic interfaces, because it can control of 30,000 polygon model constructed virtual object with 1[kHz] haptic interrupt cycle and 20[Hz] graphic interrupt cycle in the single PC based system.

The multiple targets tracking problem has been one of the main issues in the radar applications area in the last decade. Besides the standard Kalman filtering, various methods including the variable dimen-sion filter, input estimation filter, interacting multiple model(IMM) filter, dederated variable dimension filter with input estimation, etc., have proposed to address the tracking and sensor fusion issues. In this pa- per, two existing tracking algorithm, i.e, the IMM filter and the variable dimension filter with input estima-tion(VDIE), are combined for the purpose of improving the tracking performance for maneuvering targets. To evaluate the tracking performance of the proposed algorithm, three typical maneuvering patterns, i.e., waver, pop-up, and high-diver motions, are defined and are applied to the modified IMM filter as well as the standard IMM filter. The smaller RMS tracking errors, in position and velocity, of the modified IMM filter than the standard IMM filter are demonstrated though computer simulations.

In this paper, we propose a method of tracking and capturing a moving object by a mobile robot. The position of the moving object is acquired from the relation through color-based image information from a 2-DOF active camera mounted on the mobile robot. The direction and rotational angular velocity of the moving object are estimated using a state estimator. A Kalman fiber is used as the state estimator for taking characteristics of robustness against noises and uncertainties included in the input data. After estimating the trajectory of the moving object, we decide on the optimal trajectory and plan the motion of the mobile robot to capture the target object within the shortest distance and time. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by the simulations and experiments.

In this study, the end-effector tracking performance of a manipulator installed on a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) for autonomous underwater intervention is verified. The underwater manipulator is an ARM 7E MINI model produced by the ECA group, which consists of six joints and one gripper. Of the six joints of the manipulator, two are revolute joints and the other four are prismatic joints. Velocity control is used to control the manipulator with forward and inverse kinematics. When the manipulator approaches a target object, it is difficult for the ROV to maintain its position and posture, owing to various disturbances, such as the variation in both the center of mass and the reaction force resulting from the manipulator motion. Therefore, it is necessary to compensate for the influences and ensure the relative distance to the object. Simulations and experiments are performed to track the trajectory of a virtual object, and the tracking performance is verified from the results.

Gear train in the automobile to be used for controlling gas flow in automobiles consists of spur gears with involute tooth type in multiple stages. This spur gear is designed considering to the high power transfer efficiency, bending stress and contact stress in the static and dynamic analysis. The torque has been increased simultaneously the angular velocity has been decreased through the stages after being supplied by AC synchronous motor. This apparatus is controlled by electrical devices such as the PIC microprocessor, hall sensor and other electric components. By comparing the preset data of PIC microcomputer which is supplied by external DC electric power with the value set of hall sensor which detects the rotation angle position, PIC microcomputer thus controls AC motor and gear train according to the program algorithm which includes the on-off control and PWM motor driving method. As the result of the experiment such as performance, fatigue, torque test, we can conclude that this system is superior to the same and familiar foreign systems.
