Recently, It is gradually raised necessity that thickness of thin film is measured accuracy and managed in industrial circles and medical world. Ultrasonic Signal processing method is likely to become a very powerful method for NDE method of detection of microdefects and thickness measurement of thin film below the limit of Ultrasonic distance resolution in the opaque materials, provides useful information that cannot be obtained by a conventional measuring system. In the present research, considering a thin film below the limit of ultrasonic distance resolution sandwiched between three substances as acoustical analysis model, demonstrated the usefulness of ultrasonic Signal processing technique using information of ultrasonic frequency for NDE of measurements of thin film thickness, sound velocity, and step height, regardless of interference phenomenon. Numeral information was deduced and quantified effective information from the image. Also, pattern recognition of a defected input image was performed by neural network algorithm. Input pattern of various numeral was composed combinationally, and then, it was studied by neural network. Furthermore, possibility of pattern recognition was confirmed on artifical defected input data formed by simulation. Finally, application on unknown input pattern was also examined.

One approach to testing the suitability of an adhesive joint for a particular application is to build and test to destruct ion a representative sample of the joint. The nondestructive test will not measure strength directly but will measure a parameter which can be correlated to strength. It is therefore, essential that a suitable nondestructive test is chosen and that its results are correctly interpreted. In this paper, typical defects found in adhesive joints are described together with their significance. The limits and likely success of current physical nondestructive tests are described, and future trends outlined.

In a conventional digital beamformer received signal were sampled at least Nyquist rate of its maximum frequency. But it is wide band signal and its coherent sum must be obtained, the sampling clock of about $8f_o$ and $16f_o$ is necessary or high quality images. This paper described how image qualities are varied according to sampling clock. Mainly, we compared the SDF(Sampled Delay Focusing) that had maximum precision of $8f_o$ with $16f_o$ sampling system and analyze its characteristics.

For the evaluation of the DC motor noise and vibration, usually it is rely on human feeling because some kinds of noise are not definitely represented by measurement Instrument such as sound meter. But when we consider time signal of the noise and vibration. It is possible to represent them. And in this paper. it is suggested to study output current shape of the motor because it Is the source to make speed and torque variation of the motor. If the current shape is not stable. it makes operating state of the motor unstable and produces noise and vibration. By analyzing signal at time and frequency of noise and vibration and current shape. it is possible to automation of the noise and vibration measurement in the Production line.

It's required mechanical properties of in-service facilities to maintain safety operation in power plants as well as chemical plants. In this study the four classes of the thermally aged 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V specimens were prepared using an artificially accelerated aging method at $630^{\circ}C$. Ultrasonic tests, tensile tests, $K_{IC}$ tests and hardness tests were performed in order to evaluate the degree of degradation of the material. The mechanical properties were decreased as degraded, but the attenuation coefficient and the harmonic generation level of a ultrasonic signal were increased. Expecially the nonlinear parameter of the signal is sensitive and will be a good parameter to evaluate the material degradation.

We studied on the nondestructive evaluation of the elastic wave signal of SiC ceramics and SiC/SiC composite ceramics under monotonic tensile loading. The elastic wave signal of cross and unidirectional SiC/SiC composite ceramics were obtained by pencil lead method and bending test. It was applied for the time-frequency method which used by the discrete wavelet analysis algorithm. The time-frequency analysis provides time variation of each frequency component involved in a waveform, which makes it possible to evaluate the contribution of SiC fiber frequency. The results were compared with the characteristic of frequency group from SiC slurry and fiber. Based on the results, if it is possible to shift up and design as a higher frequency group, we will can make the superior material better than those of exiting SiC/SiC composites.

Random access protocol takes advantage of constructing a decentralized wireless network due to its intrinsic spectrum sensing capability. Such technical feature goes well with cognitive radio networks consisting of heterogeneous wireless systems, in which a centralized control between heterogeneous wireless systems is hard to be implemented. Motivated by the decentralized feature of the random access, we adopt the random access protocol in cognitive radio networks, and evaluate the performance of a CSMA-based cognitive radio network.

This paper proposes a new construction method of neural networks. The construction method consists of two fundmental ideas, which are a parallel selection-style evaluation and rules evolution. A new collision avoidance algorithm using genetic and neural network is proposed to avoid moving obstacles such as mobile robots. The input parameters of this algorithm is position of moving obstacles and target. Output is a regenerated direction of mobile robot. This algorithm is very simple and so, it is available to application of real time process. The pattern of collision avoidance is learned through test execution.

Frequency and phasor are the most important quantities in power system operation. Frequency reflects the dynamic energy balance between load and generating power. To estimate of power system frequency, an accurate digital tracking algorithm by using phasor angle difference is presented. For an evaluation of the proposed technique, simulations by EMTP have been performed. Test results were showed the algorithm's accuracy under the effect of noise and changes in frequency and amplitude on the input signal.

This article presents safety review experience of microprocessor-based Interposing Logic System(ILS) of Engineering Safety Feature Actuation System(ESFAS). The ILS is the first application of computerized logic design to safety system in Korean nuclear power plants without verification of the system reliability by proven technology concept. As a result of evaluation for the ILS, Korea Institute of Nuclear Safety(KINS) concluded that the microprocessor-based ILS is not acceptable in some features detailed enough to defend against software common mode failures(CMF). Therefore, we required licensee to install hardwired interlock signal configuration and a Hardwired Backup Panel to control safety-related equipment. We believe that the microprocessor-based ILS with the hardwired backup panel and inter-connection of interlock signal by hardwired configuration will improve the plant safety.
