  • In the field of prosthesis arm control, the pattern classification of the EMG signal is a required basis process and also the estimation of force from collected EMG data is another necessary duty. But unfortunately, what we've got is not real force but an EMG signal which contains the information of force. This is the reason why we estimate the force from the EMG data. In this paper, when we handle the EMG signal to estimate the force, spatial prewhitening process is applied from which the spatial correlation between the channels are removed. And after the orthogonal transformation which is used in the force estimation process, the transformed signal Is inputed into the probabilistic model for pattern classification. To verify the different results of the multiple channels, SNR(signal to noise ratio) function is introduced.

  • The printed wide band monopole antenna having characteristics of dipole by modified coplanar wave guide(CPW) ground plane is presented. We are called a slot-arm printed monopole antenna and investigated the effect of the surface currents of the radiator on ground plane. The proposed antenna is treated as two asymmetric dipoles with the included angle of $90^{\circ}$ degrees which lie along Z-direction symmetrically. It is observed that the effect of the surface currents on the radiation patterns is similar to that of the corresponding dipole. The length and width of the ground plane correspond the radius and length of the dipole respectively. This approach is also valid to general printed monopole antennas. The simulation impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna the range of 2.4 to 4.6 [GHz] for a voltage stand wave ratio (VSWR)${\leq}$2 and got pick gain of 6 [dBi]. So the proposed antenna is satisfied the requirement of the industry science medical (ISM) band operation.

  • There are two methods in blood pressure measurement ; Invasive methode and Non-invasive method. The Invasive methode can get the 띠cod pressure measurement but, patient feel uncomfortable. So Non-invasive methode used generally. The Oscillometric method is typical Non-Invasive method. This method is commonly used to measure BP in electric sphygmomanometer and has various algorithm. In this paper it is described about a algorithm, it controls, determinates the cuff pressure, and fillers the measured BP data. This system can interface with PC(personal computer) by RS-232 and save the measured data in PC. This system deflates the cuff pressure by Solenoid valve. The main algorithm are oscillometric and maximum amplitude algorithm(MAA). MAA has various measured oscillation, it depends on patient's age, height, weight and arm circumference size. In this paper proposed system can measure Systolic BP, Diastolic BP, and Mean BP using Interpolation, Auto Reinflation algorithm.

  • An asteroid specimen was collected from Jumunjin, Gangwon-do in the East Sea, Korea at a depth of 50 m using fishing nets on 26 May 2013. It was identified as Pteraster militaris (O.F. $M{\ddot{u}ller$, 1776) belonging to the family Pterasteridae of the order Velatida based on morphological characteristics. This species is usually distributed in the cold boreal zone around northern Pacific and Atlantic, and is distinctly distinguished from P. tesselatus which was reported in Korean fauna: body form, length ratio of arm to disc and surface of dorsal membrane.

  • A measurement system for magnetic anisotropy was built. The torque acting on the disc or sperical samples placed in uniform magnetic field was detected with a capacitive transducer which is connected with a transformer ratio-arm bridge. The output of the bridge was amplified with a lock-in amplifier. The cubic anisotropy constant for (100) of 3% Si-Fe was $3.3{\times}10^{4}\;J/m^{3}$. The calibration for the system was carried out with the shape anisotropy of a thin Ni wire.

  • The surging stresses of the valve spring of over head valve 4 cycle engine, which is made is Korea, were computed from theoretical analysis and these values were compared with the experimental results. For calculating surging stresses of test engine valve spring. Kato's equation should be corrected by the corretion factor C which is equal to twice rocker arm level ratio. Good agreement was found to exist between the theoretical analysis and the experimental results within.+-.5 percent differences. The stress amplitudes of test valve spring at each harmonic order were determined by the experiment and by using corrected equation, The safety considerations of test valve spring were discussed.

  • The growing demand for more fuel-efficient vehicles to reduce energy consumption and air pollution is a challenge for the automotive industry. The characteristic properties of aluminum, high strengrth stiffness to weight ratio, good formability, good corrosion resistence, and recycling potential make it the ideal candidate to replace heavier materials in the car to respond to the weight resuction demand within the automotive industry. In this paper, A series of compression test was carried out to find the flow stress of A6082 at 300, 400 and $500^{\circ}C$, then we tried to estimate weldability, extrusion load and effective stress of die in the aluminum extrusion process through the 3D FE simulation at non-steady state for aluminum automotive parts.

  • This paper presents a new algorithm for solving the inverse kinematics in real-time applications. The end-tip movement of each link can be resolved into the basic resolution unit, .DELTA.l, which depends on link length, reduction ratio and resolution of the incremental encoder attached to the joint. When x- and y-axis projection of the end-tip movement are expressed in .DELTA.l unit, projectional increments .DELTA.x and .DELTA.y become -1, 0 or I by truncation. By using the incremental computation with these ternary value and some simple logic rules, a coordinate transformation can be realized. Through this approach, it should be noted that the floating-point arithmetic and the manipulation of trigonometric functions are completely eliminated. This paper demonstrates the proposed method in a parallelogram linkage type, two-link arm.

  • The mechanical floating-mass which is analogous to an electrical floating- capacitance may not come across because a mass element in a mechanical network must be attracted to rho ground which is the reference point. In this study the mechanical floating-mass is fonstructed by employing two simple support levers, one link, one mass, and four frictionless hearings. It also shows that the mechanical device can be used to give various equivalent masses by altering the arm ratio of the levers.

  • In this paper, a two-stage kinematic optimal design for a 3 degree of-freedom (DOF) excavator subsystem, which consists of boom, arm and bucket, is performed. The objective of the first stage is to find the optimal parameters of the joint-actuating mechanisms which maximize the force-torque transmission ratio between the hydraulic actuator and the rotating joint. The objective of the second stage is to find the optimal link parameters which maximize the isotropic characteristic of the excavator subsystem throughout the workspace. It is illustrated that kinematic/dynamic performances of the kinematically optimized excavator subsystem have improved compared to those of original HE280 excavator, with respect to three performance indices such as maximum load handling capacity, maximum velocity capability, and acceleration capability.
