The main principle of two widely used methods which were proposed by Ruan and Bhushan, and by Ogletree and Carpick are introduced. Experiments were conducted using the two methods to measure friction force between AFM probe and silicon sample quantitatively. To characterize the frictional properties, the conversion factors of the two methods by which lateral electronic signal is converted into actual friction force were calculated. The experimental results show that that the conversion factors were extraordinarily different from each other. Further research should be done to identity the reasons for these differences.

Efforts have been devoted to developing rapid and accurate methods for measuring the errors of machine tools. The method os measurement and calibration of machine tool errors should be general and efficient. The objective of this study is to show in detail the full sequence from the measurement of errors factors to the verification of the positioning accuracy after compensation for the volumetric error. In this paper, we described the steps in measuring the volumetric error parameters, a general error model composed of error parameters, temperature, and the desired position. The validity of the error calibration methods proposed in this paper was tested using a vertical 3-axis CNC machine with a laser interferometer and a ball bar.

Tunnels are one of the most important constructions in civil engineering. The damage to these structures caused enormous costs. Therefore, the safe and economic design of these structures has long been considered. However, both applied loads on the tunnels as well as the resistance of the structural members are naturally uncertain parameters, hence, the design of these structures requires considering the probabilistic approaches. This study aims to determine the load and resistant factors of lining tunnels concerning the earthquake extreme events limit state function. For this purpose, tunnels that have been designed according to the previous design codes (AASHTO Tunnel LRFD 2017) and using reliability analysis, the optimum reliability of these structures for different loading scenarios is determined. In this paper, the tunnel is considered circular. Finally, the proper load and resistance factors are calculated corresponding to the obtained target reliability. Based on the performed calibration earthquake extreme events limit state function, the result of this study can be recommended to AASHTO Tunnel LRFD 2017.

This paper introduces the calibration results of the fatigue crack growth models for damage tolerance analysis of the aircraft structures. Generalized Willenborg model and Wheeler model are calibrated with experimental data tested under the load spectrum of a trainer. The retardation factors such as, shut-off ratio in Generalized Willenborg model and shaping exponent in Wheeler model, are evaluated for aluminum alloys AL2024-T3511, AL7050-T7451 and AL7075-T73511. It is shown that the retardation effect of the crack growth rate depends on the yield strength of material and the maximum stress in the load spectrum. Generalized Willenborg model and Wheeler model give satisfactory prediction of crack growth life but the calibration of the experimental parameters with test is required.

The aims of this study are to evaluate the measurement capability of the electromagnetic power and to understand the current state of standard maintanance of the eight participants among the thirteen national calibration and test organizations. The calibration factors were measured at six test frequencies, 50, 100, 500, 1000, 5000, 10000 MHz by organizations and KRISS on the basis of round robin test. The results were analyzed by calculating the standard deviation of the measured values from the standard values. The analysis shows good agreement within 1.0% for all participants at the measurement frequencies. Therefore, the measurement capability of all participants is good in the frequency range of 50 MHz to 10 GHz. For the four participants which specified standard deviations of repeated measurements in their reporst, the total uncertainties is less than 1.9% at the measurement frequencies.

Non-contacting optical microscopes are increasingly used in recent industrial applications of probes for coordinate measuring machines. They have been found more efficient than conventional touch trigger porbes with ball tips especially in inspecting small-sized objects. There are two major factors affecting measuring accuracy: (1) geometric relations between coordinate systems, (2) magnification ratios of a microscope. In order to determine the magnification ratios exactly, optical imaging of edge was theroretically analyzed and practically adopted to image processing for edge detection. In addition, this paper proposes a geometric calibration method to obtain exact coordinates of measured points from the relations between the machine coordinate system and the image. In the method, the error according to the squareness between the machine axises was also removed. The method was practically adopted to a real coordinate measuring machine. An ultraprecision measurement of 0.2 um uncertainty can be practically achieved.

In the rapidly advancing landscape of computer vision (CV) technology, there is a burgeoning interest in its integration with the construction industry. Camera calibration is the process of deriving intrinsic and extrinsic parameters that affect when the coordinates of the 3D real world are projected onto the 2D plane, where the intrinsic parameters are internal factors of the camera, and extrinsic parameters are external factors such as the position and rotation of the camera. Camera pose estimation or extrinsic calibration, which estimates extrinsic parameters, is essential information for CV application at construction since it can be used for indoor navigation of construction robots and field monitoring by restoring depth information. Traditionally, camera pose estimation methods for cameras relied on target objects such as markers or patterns. However, these methods, which are marker- or pattern-based, are often time-consuming due to the requirement of installing a target object for estimation. As a solution to this challenge, this study introduces a novel framework that facilitates camera pose estimation using standardized materials found commonly in construction sites, such as concrete forms. The proposed framework obtains 3D real-world coordinates by referring to construction materials with certain specifications, extracts the 2D coordinates of the corresponding image plane through keypoint detection, and derives the camera's coordinate through the perspective-n-point (PnP) method which derives the extrinsic parameters by matching 3D and 2D coordinate pairs. This framework presents a substantial advancement as it streamlines the extrinsic calibration process, thereby potentially enhancing the efficiency of CV technology application and data collection at construction sites. This approach holds promise for expediting and optimizing various construction-related tasks by automating and simplifying the calibration procedure.

기존의 중력모형은 통행비용 변수만으로 존 간 특성을 설명하기 때문에 많은 한계점을 갖게 된다. 현대 도시의 통행 패턴은 거리나 비용뿐만이 아니라 존 별 특성과 교통인프라 수준 등의 영향을 받기 때문이다. 따라서 장래 통행을 합리적으로 추정하기 위해서는 이러한 특성을 고려한 모형이 개발되어야 한다. 본 연구는 이러한 관점에서 접근성 변수를 중력모형의 설명 변수로 도입하였다. 이와 함께 변수가 추가에 따른 2단계 정산기법을 제안하였다. 이는 통행저항함수의 계수를 회귀분석을 통해 우선 추정한 뒤, 존별 균형인자를 순차적으로 추정하는 방법이다. RMSE, E-norm, C.R을 활용한 접근성을 도입한 중력모형의 검증 결과, 기존의 중력모형보다 통행패턴의 구현 능력이 향상된 점을 확인하였다. 특히, 단거리 통행량 추정에 어려움을 겪은 기존 모형의 한계점을 해결하였다는 점이 주목할 만 하다. 결론적으로 본 연구는 새로운 중력모형의 정산기법을 제안함과 동시에 접근성 변수의 도입을 통해 존 간 특성을 구현하였다는 점에서 통행분포모형의 개선 가능성을 제시하였다.

This study was conducted to evaluate beef using a color machine vision system. The machine vision system has an advantage to measure larger area than a colorimeter and also could measure other quality factors like distribution of fats. However, the machine vision measurement is affected by system components. To measure the beef color with the machine vision system, the effect of color balancing control was tested and calibration model was developed. Neural network for color calibration which learned reference color patches showed a high correlation with colorimeter in L*a*b* coordinates and had an adaptability at various measurement environments. The trained network showed a very high correlation with the colorimeter when measuring beef color.

본 논문은 렌즈와 여러 요인에 의해 야기되는 왜곡 영상을 본래 영상에 가까운 영상으로 보정하기 위한 방법을 제안한다. 왜곡되지 않은 가정된 표준영상과 왜곡 영상간의 3차 변환 모델링을 통하여 보정 계수를 구한 후 왜곡 영상에 이 계수를 적용하여 원하는 영상을 얻는다. 보정계수는 카메라의 위치나 렌즈 변경등 촬영 환경이 변경될 때까지 유효하다. 본 연구는 보정계수를 구하기 위한 영상처리 과정과 왜곡 영상에 보정계수를 적용하여실 영상으로 간주되는 영상을 만들어내는 보정계수 적용 과정으로 되어 있다. 본 논문에서제안하는 방법은 특정 시스템 환경과 카메라 렌즈의 영향에 의해 부과된 변형된 영상으로부터 실제 영상을 관측하는 시스템에 적용하기 위한 것이며 실험은 원자로에 부착 될 CCD카메라로부터 입력되는 왜곡 영상을 대상으로 하였고 보정 정도가 기존 방법보다 우수함을 보인다.
