본 논문에서는 여러 장의 후판이 포함된 영상에서 제품번호 문자열을 추출하고 문자를 분리하는 알고리즘을 제안한다. 일반적으로 후판 영상은 여러 개의 후판을 포함하고 있다. 후판의 제품번호를 추출하기 위해서는 먼저 개별 후판을 분리하여야 하며, 이를 위해 후판의 직선 에지를 검출하고 군집화를 수행한다. 다음으로 분리된 개별 후판을 대상으로 배경 정보를 제거하여 후판의 제품번호 문자열을 검출한다. 후판의 배경은 철판의 어두운 부분과 제품번호를 출력하기 위한 흰색 페인트 부분으로 구성되며, 제안하는 방법에서는 두 부분을 구분하여 두 단계로 배경을 제거한다. 배경을 제거한 영상에 대해서 후판의 제품번호 문자열의 특성을 고려하여 개별 문자열을 추출한다. 다양한 후판 영상에 대해서 실험을 수행한 결과는 제안하는 알고리즘이 전체 영상에서 각각의 후판을 효과적으로 검출하고 개별 후판 영상에서 제품번호를 정확하게 추출함을 보여준다.

미소결함을 가진 금속체에 교류자기장을 인가하면 결함부근에는 와전류의 분포가 달라져 이에 의해 금속체를 관통하는 교류자기장은 결함부근에서 차이를 가진다. 이 교류자기장을 비정질 와이어로 된 센서헤드로 측정하여 센서헤드의 유기전압 크기로부터 결함 유무를 검출하는 방법에 대해 검토하였다. 비정질 와이어는 Co-based재료로 자왜가 거의 0이며 고투자율 자성체이고 비정질 와이어는 길이가 15mm, 직경이 100$\mu\textrm{m}$인 원주형 자성체이다. 실험대상 금속체로 0.5mm의 단일 직선 갭을 가진 두께 1mm의 동판과 0.1mm의 갭이 규칙적으로 배열된 두께 25$\mu\textrm{m}$의 Al 판를 이용하였다. 스파이럴 코일에 인가하는 교류자기장의 주파수는 100KHz~600KHz였다. 본 실험의 결과에서 동판에서는 유기전압의 최대치와 최소치의 차가 약 2.5㎷ 얻어졌고, Al판에서는 500KHz에서 0.4㎷가 얻어져 직선 갭의 유무를 유기전압의 크기만으로 확인할 수 있었다.

Unlike conventional Eddy Current Test (ECT), Pulsed Eddy Current (PEC) uses a multiple-frequency current pulse through the excitation coil. In the present study, the detection of subsurface cracks using a specially designed probe that allows the detection of a deeper crack with a relatively small current density has been attempted using the PEC technique. The tested sample is a piece of 304 stainless steel (SS304) with a thickness of 30mm. Small electrical discharge machining (EDM) notches were put in the test sample at different depths from the surface to simulate the subsurface cracks in a pipe. The designed PEC probe consists of an excitation coil and a Hall sensor and can detect a subsurface crack as narrow and shallow as 0.2 mm wide and 2 mm deep. The maximum distance between the probe and the defect is 28 mm. The peak amplitude of the detected pulse is used to evaluate the cracks under the sample surface. In time domain analysis, the greater the crack depth the greater the peak amplitude of the detected pulse. The experimental results indicated that the proposed system has the potential to detect the subsurface cracks in stainless steel plates.

An automatic welding equipment for thick plates requires the capability of the seam tracking of the weld line which often includes misalignment of the workpiece and variation of groove width. In this study, an automatic welding equipment and control algorithms based on the arc sensor were proposed for the GMA welding of thick plates which had misalignment and gap variation. The developed system being constituted with 5 axis can be automatically controlled by computer and also automnatically set the welding conditions such as welding current, and voltage. The proposed algorithms for the seam tracking in multi-pass welding of the thick plates were constituted as follows : the detection of weaving-end point for findng the variation of groove width, the control of welding velocity for acquiring a constant thickness deposition of weld metal, and the calculation of groove width and height of an arbitrary pass in the multi-pass weld. As results of the application of the system, it was revealed that the system had a good capability in seam tracking and made an excellent weld quality in V groove butt joint.

Generally, butt welds with plate thickness $30{\sim}40mm$ are welded with groove angle $40^{\circ},\;60^{\circ},\;70^{\circ}$, etc. In the detection of internal weld defects, oblique testing with single probe has been mainly used. But, recently, in acccordance with enlargement of welded structure, thick plate with 100-200mm are frequently required. Thus I-groove welding method was lately developed and often used. In this case, most frequently generated defects are the lack of weld penetration and incomplete fusion between base metal and welding material. If we would detect by oblique testing with single probe, detecting flaw is occassionally impossible or very underestimated. In this study, the limit for applying tandem method was studied in dise and band type flaws. The estimation of flaw size could be within 10% error compared to real flaws.

A brief introduction is presented on the radiation safety studies at Tohoku University Cyclotron & Radioisotope Center. Studies on two subject are described; (1) measurement of the thick target neutron yield and radioisotope production / activation cross section for ten's of MeV neutrons and ions using K=110 Tohoku University cyclotron to provide basicdata for accelerator shielding, and (2) development of techniques for high sensitive radiation detection and profile measurement using an Imaging Plate which is a high sensitive two-dimensional radiation sensor. Application of the Imaging Plate techniques to localization of very weak radioactivity and to neutron profile measurement is described.

Today, implementation of the defect detection in laser welding has been researched for a long time, but most studies have been made around thin plate within $1{\sim}3mm^t$. Therefore, this study was measured and analyzed light emission signals of the induced plasma in $CO_2$ laser lap welding of $6mm^t$ Zn primer-coated steel, and based on this analysis, research made an investigation into possibility of monitoring in thick plate welding. It was been analyzing the measured signals by RMS and FFT processing, as a results, we were able to confirm definite difference of two signals between humping bead and sound bead. Thus, possibility of real time monitoring in $CO_2$ laser lap welding verified experimentally.

본 논문에서는 후판 영상에서 직선 패턴을 검출하는 간단하면서도 정확한 알고리즘을 제안한다. 후판의 직선 검출은 후판 영상으로부터 후판에 관련된 정보를 분석하거나 인식할 때 기본적으로 사용되는 핵심적인 알고리즘이다. 제안하는 알고리즘에서는 마스크를 이용하여 전체 영상을 탐색하면서 에지 영상을 분석한다. 먼저 마스크에 위치한 에지 패턴의 픽셀들에 대한 공분산 행렬을 계산하고 공분산 행렬의 고유값과 에지 패턴의 통계적 기하학적인 특성 사이의 관계를 분석하여 직선 에지를 검출한다. 직선 패턴이 중복된 에지 영상에 대해서는 모든 직선을 정확하게 검출하기 위하여 먼저 각 직선 패턴을 전체 영상에서 분리한 후 고유값을 계산한다. 또한 에지를 구성하는 픽셀의 수와 에지의 방향 정보를 이용하여 불필요한 직선 에지들을 제거함으로써 후판의 직선 에지를 정확하게 검출하도록 한다. 다양한 후판 영상에 대해서 실험을 수행한 결과는 제안하는 알고리즘이 고유값을 이용한 기존 알고리즘 보다 우수함을 보여준다.

The fabrication and experimentation of multi-channel electrodes which enable detecting and recording of multi-site neuronal signals have been investigated. A multi-channel electrode array was fabricated by depositing 2000${\AA}$ thick Au layer on the 1000${\AA}$ thick Ti adhesion layer on a glass wafer. The metal paths were patterned by wet etching and passivated by depositing a PECVD silicon nitride insulation layer to prevent signals from intermixing or cross-talking. After placing a thin slice of rat cerebellar granule cell in the culture ring located in central portion of the multi-channel electrode plate, a neuronal signal from an electrode which is in contact with the cerebellar granule cell has been detected. It was found that the electrode impedance ranges 200㏀∼1㏁ and the impedance is not changed by cleaning with nitric acid. Also, the impedance is inversely proportion to the exposed electrode area and the cross-talk is negligible when the electrode spacing is bigger than 600$\mu\textrm{m}$. The amplitude and frequency of the measured action potential were 38㎷ and 2㎑, which are typical values. From the experimental results, the fabricated multi-channel electrode array proved to be suitable for multi-site neuronal signal detection for the analysis of a complicated cell network.

This paper presents numerical and experimental results on the use of guided waves for structural health monitoring (SHM) of crack growth during a fatigue test in a thick steel plate used for civil engineering application. Numerical simulation, analytical modeling, and experimental tests are used to prove that piezoelectric wafer active sensor (PWAS) can perform active SHM using guided wave pitch-catch method and passive SHM using acoustic emission (AE). AE simulation was performed with the multi-physic FEM (MP-FEM) approach. The MP-FEM approach permits that the output variables to be expressed directly in electric terms while the two-ways electromechanical conversion is done internally in the MP-FEM formulation. The AE event was simulated as a pulse of defined duration and amplitude. The electrical signal measured at a PWAS receiver was simulated. Experimental tests were performed with PWAS transducers acting as passive receivers of AE signals. An AE source was simulated using 0.5-mm pencil lead breaks. The PWAS transducers were able to pick up AE signal with good strength. Subsequently, PWAS transducers and traditional AE transducer were applied to a 12.7-mm CT specimen subjected to accelerated fatigue testing. Active sensing in pitch catch mode on the CT specimen was applied between the PWAS transducers pairs. Damage indexes were calculated and correlated with actual crack growth. The paper finishes with conclusions and suggestions for further work.
