This paper presents the use of the inertial measurement unit information and the infrared sector information for getting the position of an object. Travel distance is usually calculated from the double integration of the accelerometer output with respect to time; however, the accumulated errors due to the drift are inevitable. The orientation change of the accelerometer also causes error because the gravity is added to the measured acceleration. Unless three axis orientations are completely identified, the accelerometer alone does not provide correct acceleration for estimating the travel distance. We propose a way of minimizing the error due to the change of the orientation. In order to reduce the accumulated error, the infrared sector information is fused with the inertial measurement unit information. Infrared sector information has highly deterministic characteristics, different from RFID. By putting several infrared emitters on the ceiling, the floor is divided into many different sectors and each sector is set to have a unique identification. Infrared light based sector information tells the sector the object is in, but the size of the uncertainty is too large if only the sector information is used. This paper presents an algorithm which combines both the inertial measurement unit information and the sector information so that the size of the uncertainty becomes smaller. It also introduces a framework which can be used with other types of the artificial landmarks. The characteristics of the developed infrared light based sector and the proposed algorithm are verified from the experiments.

Home health care with compact wearable units sounds to be a convenient solution for the elderly people living independently. This paper presents a method to detect fall from the other activities of daily living and also to classify those activities. This kind of ambulatory monitoring enables them to get an emergency help in the case of the fatal fall event and can provide their general health status by observing the activities being performed in daily life. A tri-axial accelerometer sensor is used to get the acceleration anomalies associated with the user's movements. The three axis acceleration data are transferred to the base station sensor node via an IEEE 802.15.4 compliant zigbee module. The base station sensor node sends the data to base station PC for an offline processing. This work shows the feature set preparation using the principal component analysis (PCA) for the designing of neural network. The work includes the most common activities of daily living (ADL) like Rest, Walk and Run along with the detection of fall events from ADL. The angle from the vertical is found to be the most significant feature parameter for classification of fall while mean, standard deviation and FFT coefficients were used as the feature parameter for classifying the other activities under consideration. The accuracy for detection of fall events is 86%. The overall accuracy for ADL and fall is 94%.

본 연구는 2차원 충돌공기분류계에서 공기의 흐름 방향과 수직이 되게 설치한 평판 전열면 앞에 전열증진을 목적으로 난류촉진체인 정4각 로드군을 설치할때의 유동특성과 전열특성을 실험을 통해서 구명하고, 본 실험범위내에서 로드의 최적 설치조건을 제시하기 위한 실험적 연구이다. 실험은 먼저 로드를 설치하지 않은 평판에서의 전열특성을 밝힌후, 로드를 설치할 경우 로드의 피치가 40mm일때 로드와 전열면사이의 간극 및 로드폭 변화시의 유동특성과 전열 특성을 구명하여 로드를 설치하지 않은 평판과의 전열성능을 비교하였다. 본 실험범위내에서 전열면에 간극을 두고 로드를 설치하면 로드 바로 밑에서의 가속 및 로드에 의한 난류생성과 재부착에 의해 전열성능은 향상되며 로드폭을 변화시킨 경우에는 로드폭이 클수록 로드 바로 밑에서의 가속효과와 로드 직전에 와류의 영향이 크게 작용하여 전열성능이 향상된다.

It is inevitable to use the distinct element method in the analysis of structural dynamics for stacked stone pagoda system. However, the experimental verification of analytical results produced by the discrete element method is not sufficient yet, and the theory of distinct element method is not universal in Korea. This study introduces how to model the stacked stone pagoda system using the distinct element method, and draws some considerations in the seismic analysis procedures. First, the rocking mode and sliding mode are locally mixed in the seismic responses. Second, the vertical stiffness and the horizontal stiffness on the friction surface have the greatest influence on the seismic behavior. Third, the complete seismic analysis of stacked stone pagoda system requires a set of the horizontal, vertical, and rotational velocity time histories of the ground. However, earthquake data monitored in Korea are limited to acceleration and velocity signals in some areas.

In this study, the track-bridge interaction analysis was performed using an analytical model considering the track structure, thereby taking into account the linear conditions (R=650 m, cant variation $160{\pm}60mm$) and the dynamic characteristics of the bridge. As a result of the study, the allowable speed on the example bridge considered was calculated at 200 km/h based on vertical deflection, vertical acceleration, and irregularity in longitudinal level, but was also evaluated at 170km/h based on the coefficient of derailment, wheel load reduction, and lateral displacement of the rail head. It is considered desirable to set the speed 170km/h to the speed limit in order to secure the safety of both the bridge and the track. It is judged that there will be no problems with ensuring rail protection and train stability in the speed band.

This study was performed to investigate the characteristics and performance of model Decanter for separating swine wastewater to solid and liquid which is slurry state with 12.6% TS. Swine wastewater of the slurry tank was pumped into model Decanter which capacity was $2m^3$/hr in 10% TS Slurry inside of bowl was separated to solid-liquid by centrifugal acceleration. Sampling was done in the section of slurry feed pipe, supernatant outflow pipe, cake discharge pipe. After solid-liquid separation TS, $COD_cr$ and slurry volume reduction effect represented 38%, 40%, 19.6% respectively. Relation factor of model Decanter operation slurry concentration, optimum retention time of slurry, overflow velocity of supernatant, supernatant concentration, sludge removal rate etc. Optimal operation conditions can be set and evaluated efficiency based on the experimental results in the case of Decanter adopted for solid-liquid separation in highly concentrated swine wastewater.

Health care has attracted a lot of attention, recently due to an increase in life expectancy and interest in health. Various biometric data of the user are collected by using the air pressure sensor, gyro sensor, acceleration sensor, and heart rate sensor to perform the Smart Health Care Activity Tracker function. Basically, smartphone application is made and tested for biometric data collection, but the Arduino platform and bio-signal measurement sensor are used to confirm the accuracy of the measured value of the smartphone. Use the Google Maps API to set user goals and provide guidance on the location of the user and the points the user wants. Also, the basic configuration of the main UI is composed of the screen of the camera, and it is possible for the user to confirm the forward while using the application, so that accident prevention is possible.

This paper presents the circuit arrangement and effective control method of regenerative energy storage system for an electric vehicle using super-capacitors as the braking energy storage element. A bi-directional controlled current flow of the DC-DC converters with the capacitor bank is connected in parallel with battery, and is controlled so that the whole of the braking energy is effectively absorbed into the capacitors and released back to the electric motor upon acceleration. The converter needs the series-parallel switching circuit for making the best use of the series capacitors and for limiting the step-up ratio of the boost converter. The proposed methods are verified by computer simulation and experimental set-up. They are usefully applied to the electric vehicles such as green cars, electric motorcycles, bike, etc which are power- supplied by the electric batteries.

경계면을 정의하는 기존의 레벨-셋 기법은 대개 수학적인 수식을 이용한다. 그러나 3차원 데카르트 좌표계에서 복잡한 경계면을 수식으로 설정하는 방식은 거의 불가능하다. 이러한 이유로 우리는 보편적으로 사용되는 스테레오리쏘그래피(STL) 형식을 매개 변수화하여 3D 캐드 형상의 내부와 외부를 구분하는 레벨-셋 경계면 설정 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 본 논문은 반응막대 실험 모사를 통해 기존의 경계면 설정 방식과 새로운 경계면 설정 방식 결과와 비교하여 이 알고리즘이 적용된 하이드로 다이내믹 솔버의 타당성을 확보하였다. 이를 통해 가연성 기체로 채워진 다양한 형상 안에서 충격파와 상호작용이 연소 폭발 천이 현상에 미치는 영향을 수치적으로 해석하였다. 또한, 실제 크기의 공장 설비에서 화염이 퍼져나가는 과정과 데토네이션 발생이 설비에 미치는 피해를 수치적으로 예측하는 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다.
