A nuclear Power Plant is composed of a number of mechanical components. Maintaining the integrity of these components is one of the most critical issues in nuclear industry. In order to evaluate the integrity of these mechanical components, a lot of data are required including inspection data, geometrical data, material properties, etc. Therefore, an effective database system is essential to manage the integrity of nuclear power plant. For this purpose, an internet based virtual reality environment and web database system was proposed. The developed virtual reality environment provides realistic geometrical configurations of mechanical components using VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language). The virtual reality environment was linked with the web database, which can manage the required data for the integrity evaluation. The proposed system is able to share the information regarding the integrity evaluation through internet, and thus, will be suitable for an integrated system for the maintenance of mechanical components.

The study of Web GUI(Graphic User Information) system for Virtual Reality System is mainly performed on effective methodology which transform real world data to computing world data. MGIS(Marine Geographic Information System) has its own target on reliable data service by acquisition of geometric information using accurate measurement and graphical visualization. This type of raw data visualization can be built without software tools, yet is incredibly useful for interpreting and communicating data. Even simple visualizations can aid in the interpretation of complex 3D relationships that are frequently encountered in the geosciences. The Virtual Reality Modeling Language provides an easy way for geoscientists to construct complex visualizations that can be viewed with free software. This study propose a three dimensional Web GUI system using MGIS-based three dimensional data models and virtual imaging system. Finally, we design a Web GUI system integrating above data models.

This paper is concerned with the compression test and forming process of flange by using virtual reality and analysis(simulation) program. This virtual manufacturing can be carried out one personal computer without any expensive devices for experiment. The virtual manufacturing composed of three modules such as the imput, calculation and the output modules on internet. Internet user can give the material's property and process parameters to the sever computer at the input module. On the calculation module, a simulator computes the virtual manufacturing process by analysis program and stores the data as a file. The output module is the program in which internet user can confirm virtual manufacturing results by showing tables, graphs, and 3D animation. This programs is designed by an internet language such as HTML, CGI, VRML and JAVA ,while analysis programs use the finite increasing, the virtual manufacturing technique will substitute many real experiments in the future.

In order to evaluate the corrosion of reinforcing steel-bars (rebar) in concrete, a nondestructive evaluation by the half-cell potential method is currently applied. In this study, potentials measured on a concrete surface are compensated into those on the concrete-rebar interface by the inverse boundary element method (IBEM). Because these potentials are obtained three-dimensionally (3-D), 3-D visualization is desirable. To this end, a visualization system has been developed by using VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language). As an application, results of a reinforced concrete (RC) slab with corroded rebars are visualized and discussed.

This paper describes recently developed PC based Aids to Navigation Training Simulator (AtoN-TS) using Virtual Reality Modeling language (VRML). The purpose of AtoN-TS is to train entry-level cadets to reduce the amount of sea-time training. The practical application procedure of VR technology to implement AtoN-TS is represented. The construction method of virtual waterway world, according to the guidelines of International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) is proposed. Design concepts and simulation experiments are also discussed. Results from trial tests and evaluations by subject assessment, provide practical insight on the importance of AtoN-TS.

This thesis is about the design and implementation of the system for controlling Avatar, user's alter ego in a simulated world using the EAI(External Authoring Interface) technology to be able to control VRML(Virtual Reality Modeling Language). In this thesis, user's Avatar described in VRML language embodied interactions to move and show an expression by JAVA according to a user's demand. In the future, this would be able to develop into a research to try to embody and construct a simulated society based on web for the purpose of various integration of society such as cyber government, lecture, trial performance, and auction.

현재는 HTML(Hypertext MarkUp Language) 기반의 웹 페이지가 가장 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 사용자의 요구는 갈수록 높아져 2차원의 HTML로서는 표현하지 못하는 3차원 세계의 구현을 갈구하고 있다. 그래서 탄생한 것이 VRML(Virtual Reality Modeling Language)이며 현재 ISO 표준안으로 지정되어 있다. 사용자는 VRML로서 3차원 세계를 구현할 수 있지만, 가상세계의 규모가 커지고 복잡해지면서 문서편집기만으로 구축하기는 거의 불가능하다. 이런 이유로, 기존의 저작도구가 출현하게 되었고, 사용자에게 많은 편이를 제공하였다. 하지만, 이것 역시 몇 가지 문제점 (객체 설계 능력, VRML에 관한 지식 숙지, 일반 사용자에게 부담되는 비용) 때문에 VRML의 대중화를 방해되는 요소로 작용하고 있다. 그러므로 앞에서 제시한 문제점을 개선하기 위해, 사용자가 복잡한 가상객체를 디자인하는 것이 아니라 웹에서 이미 디자인된 객체와 개인자료를 합성하게 함으로써 일반 사용자에게 부담을 크게 줄일 수 있는 새로운 방법으로 개발했다. 그러므로, 본 논문은 인터넷 사용자라면 누구나 쉽게 가상공간을 제작할 수 있는 웹 기반의 저작도구인 WVRAT(Web based Virtual Reality Authoring Tool)의 설계 및 구현에 대해 기술한다.

This paper describes prototype Virtual Reality Ship Simulator (VRSS) that we have recently developed next-generation training equipment based on the virtual reality (VR) technology. The inherent defects of conventional ship simulators are enormous costs and difficult system upgrade due to the system construction, such as large mock-up bridge system, wide visual presentations, In this paper, to cope with those problems, we explored VR technology that can give realistic environments in a virtual world. Then we constructed prototype VRSS system, which is, consists of PC-based human sensors, and Databases set having 3D object models and coefficients of Head Related Transfer Functions (HRTFs). 3D-WEBMASTER authoring tool was used as Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML). Using the VRSS system, we constructed Port an Passage Simulator for the harbor of INCHON in Korea, and Ship and Sea State Simulator for an arbitrary given sea environmental states by user. Through many simulation tests, we testified the efficiency of developed prototype VRSS by subject assessment with five participants. Then, we present results on the simulation experiments and conclude with discussion of evaluation results.
