To measure underwater acoustics using a fiber-optic Sagnac interferometric sensor, the sensitivities of ring-type probes are investigated by theoretical and experimental studies. A ring-type probe was fabricated by packaging a single-mode fiber wound around an acrylate cylinder of diameter 5 cm with epoxy bond. The probes were prepared as A-type, which was packaged with 46.84 m of sensing optical fiber, and B-type, which was packaged with 112.22 m of sensing fiber. The underwater acoustic test was performed at frequencies of 50, 70, and 90 kHz, and over a range of acoustic pressure of 20-100 Pa, to study the sensitivity. A commercial acoustic generator was located 1 m from the acoustic sensor, such as the ring-type probe or a commercial acoustic sensor. From the experimental test, the acoustic sensitivity of the ring-type probe had different values due to acoustic frequencies, unlike the theoretical prediction. Therefore, the experimental sensitivities were averaged for comparison to the theoretical values. These averaged sensitivities are 25.48 × 10^-5 rad/Pa for the A-type probe and 60.79 × 10^-5 rad/Pa for the B-type probe. The correction coefficient of Young's modulus c was determined to be 0.35.

SK (SPR Kinds) index, which can categorize the complicated measurement methods of surface plasmon resonance by simple method, has been proposed and verified. SK index is composed of three digits, where each digit presents the type of immobilized ligand, the type of illumination and the kinds of varying parameter, sequentially. The measurement method of (33#) series among SK indices shows the possibility of the multi-sensing capability, by which the response of 2-dimensional array of immobilized ligands can be detected simultaneously. The proposed possibility of multi-sensing capability has been verified by the modeling that is based on Fresnel reflection model.

In order to measure steel corrosion in mortar by a transient electro-magnetic (TEM) Method, the development of the sensors have been studied. The sensors were made of enamelled wire with diameter of 0.25mm and Acril. The sensor configuration was used as a coincident loop type. The secondary electro motive force(EMF) was measured with SIROTEM III. The accelerator was equipped with the SIROTEM III. The accelerator permits the transmitter to turn off approximately 10~15 times faster than normal. The high resolution time series used for very shallow or high resistivity investigation was selected. The steels were embedded in mortar which were made from sand : cement : water ratio of 2 : 1: 0.5. The mortar specimen was 50cm long, 20cm wide and 10cm thick. To investigate steel corrosion in mortar, the sensors used were with 2$\times$2$cm^2$(3, 6, 9$\Omega$), 3$\times$3$cm^2$(3, 6, 9$\Omega$) and 6$\times$6$cm^2$(3, 6, 9$\Omega$). The obtained result obtained showed that the sensor 8(6$\times$6$cm^2$, 6$\Omega$) was the proper sensor for the measurement of steel corrosion in mortar.

Tendon driven method to drive one joint using two actuators is developed and implemented. While the method has advantages over conventional transmissions, it also has several drawbacks like tendon slack, elongation and endurability. In this paper, a compensation method of the intrinsic non-linearities of tendon is proposed to improve the performance of antagonistic tendon driven method. In this method, tendon tension measurement is prerequisite which is measured with strain gauge type tension sensor. The developed method is implemented on one link test bed with colocated and non-colocated position sensor.

Thermal time constant measurement system was designed and fabricated to measure the thermal time constant, which shows a dynamic property of the thermocouple. Type K thermocouple samples were fabricated with variable shape each other and the thermal time constants of thermocouples were measured using the home-made thermal time constant measurement system. Thermal time constants of 12 type K thermocouple samples were distributed from 0.03 s to 8.2 s. It showed experimentally that the thermal time constant of thermocouple was increased linearly for the increase of the sheath diameter of thermocouple.

Traditionally, instrument transformer of the ferromagnetic core type have been used for measuring current in GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear). Recently, with the introduction of digital technology at the protection relay or measurement device level, the use of new current sensor can be foreseen. Current measurement by means of Rogowski coil is just one illustration of this. This paper describes the progress of development of Rogowski-coil type CT for application in 170kV GIS.

In this paper, we propose a system for monitoring and controlling the level of the rainwater tank by installing an underground storage tank as one of ways to increase the utilization rate to solve the water shortage and imbalance. For this purpose, a microprocessor of ATMEL's Atmega 128 is used for the control module, and the sensor capable of measuring the water level uses a float type level sensor which is a kind of tactile sensor. In particular, the level sensor outputs the output in a industry standard dimension, so that the compatibility is improved so as to replace the existing sensor.

The capacitive coupling technique has been used as conventional method for PD detection on the power cable line. Recently, however PD measurement using by high frequency is known to have an excellent sensitivity comparison with low frequency on-site. In this paper, the high frequency characteristic of two type of metal foil sensor was studied and the technique was proved to be more effective diagnostic method than conventional method for qualification of EHV cable and accessories.

In this present study, to evaluate the applicability of the monitoring system of the entire reservoir dam facility using the wireless sensor network system and a section representative of the domestic reservoir dam was selected as the test bed site and to operated a system that can evaluate the condition of the facility at the real time with monitoring. In order to set up a wireless sensor network system, the system assessment of present state was carried out for confirmation the risk factors and the limit values of the risk factors in limit state were calculated. The type and position of the sensor to be measured in the field were determined by setting the measurement items suitable for the hazardous area and the risk factor. In this paper, we evaluated the feasibility of the system by monitoring and constructing a wireless sensor network system in a field for a fill dam that can represent a domestic reservoir dam. Applicability evaluation was verified by comparing directly with the measurement of partial concentration method which is the measurement management technology of the dam.

A fast response $CO_2$ analyzer has been developed to study transient characteristics on an SI engine. The analyzer has the delay time of 4.5 ms and time constant of 2.8 ms, which is fast enough to measure $CO_2$ concentration on a transient condition. Wide range of A/F(Air/Fuel) ratio can be estimated using the analyzer with an additional switch type oxygen sensor. The results of measurement of $CO_2$ concentration and A/F ratio on a transient condition including rapid acceleration/deceleration and EGR(Ehxaust Gas Recirculation) on/off are presented and compared with a commercial exhaust gas analyzer and UEGO(Universial Exhaust Gas Oxyzen) sensor.
