While the feasibility of vertical velocity as a threshold parameter for pre-impact fall detection has been verified, effects of sensor attachment locations and methods calculating vertical acceleration and velocity on the detection performance have not been studied yet. Regarding the vertical velocity-based pre-impact fall detection, this paper investigates detection accuracies of eight different cases depending on sensor locations (waist vs. sternum), vertical accelerations (accurate acceleration based on both accelerometer and gyroscope vs. approximated acceleration based on only accelerometer), and vertical velocities (velocity with attenuation vs. velocity difference). Test results show that the selection of waist-attached sensor, accurate acceleration, and velocity with attenuation based on accelerometer and gyroscope signals is the best in overall in terms of sensitivity and specificity of the detection as well as lead time.

본 연구에서는 난류 흐름 중에서 모래의 침강속도를 PTV를 이용하여 측정하였다. PTV는 영상해석기법을 이용하여 입자를 추적하는 방법으로 흐름 중의 침강속도를 측정할 수 있는 유일한 방법이라 판단된다. 실험은 흐름이 없는 경우와 흐름이 있는 경우로 나누어 실시하였다. 흐름이 없는 경우에 PTV로 측정한 침강속도를 기존문헌과 비교한 결과 잘 일치하여 기법의 타당성을 입증하였다. 흐름이 있는 경우에는 유속이 증가함에 따라 침강속도가 감소하는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이는 유속이 증가함에 따라 난류강도가 증가하여 난류강도가 침강속도의 감소에 영향을 비치는 것으로 판단된다. 난류강도와 침강속도의 관계를 분석한 결과 마찰속도로 무차원화된 침강속도는 정지유체중일때에 비해 약 40% 감소됨을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the ball velocity changes depending on the different linear momentum of putter head. For this study, two different moving conditions(25cm free fall and 35cm free fall) of putter head were set. And two different types of ground conditions were used which are artificial grass green($180cm{\times}600cm{\times}1cm$) and glass green($40cm{\times}130cm{\times}1cm$). Movements of putter head and ball were recorded with 2 HD video cameras(60 Hz, 1/500s shutter speed). Small size control object($18.5cm{\times}18.5cm{\times}78.5cm$) was used in this study. Ball and putter head velocities were calculated by the First Central Difference Method(Hamill & Knutzen, 1995). Linear momentum of ball and putter head were calculated with mass and its velocities. Before impact, the velocity of the putter head of 35cm free fall was about 30% greater than that of the putter head of 25cm free fall. Linear momentum of putter head of 35cm free fall was about 0.355-0.364kg m/s and 25cm free fall was 0.251 kg m/s. After impact, putter head lost its linear momentum about 14-19% and adjusting time of putter head after impact would be 0.1 second. After 0.1 second, putter moved the route same as before impact. Maximum ball velocities were appeared 0.08s-0.10s after impact no matter what the ground conditions are. Ball velocities struck by 35cm free fall were 30 % faster than 25cm free fall. Linear momentum of ball struck by putter head was greater than that of expected amount because the moving ball has translational energy and rotational energy. Future study must treat three things. One is ball must struck by the different putters with different materials. Another is two-piece ball and three-piece ball should be used for the same condition studies. The other is height of center of rotation of club should be changed. In this study, the height of center of rotation of club head is 71cm from the ground. But recently many golfers used the long putter. Therefore next study should apply the different height of center of rotation of club head.

Prandtl's mixing length theory was modified to obtain a power velocity distribution in which the coefficient and the exponent are variable over a range from : $$ A simple suspended-sediment concentration distribution was developed from the modified velocity distribytion : $ With nominal values of $\beta$=1.0, $\kappa$=0.4 and visual accumulation tube values of the fall velocity, the comparison between the theory and field measurements by the USGS on the Rio Grande is fair. Doubling the value of the exponent results in a good comparison. Further researches are needed for choosing the values of $\beta$, $\kappa$, and fall velocity values, and consideration on the effects of large-scale turbulence and secondary flows are necessary for them. In a pragmatic sense, on any gaging sites the close analysis of very detailed measurements can establish its specific coefficient and exponent.

This study analyze the synoptic meteorological cause of rainfall, rainfall intensity, drop size distribution(DSD), fall velocity and oblateness measured by the 2D-Video distrometer(2DVD) by comparing two cases which are heavy rainfall event case and a case that is not classified as heavy rainfall but having more than $30mm\;h^{-1}$ rainrate in July, 2014 at Gimhae region. As a results; Over the high pressure edge area where strong upward motion exists, the convective rain type occurred and near the changma front, convective and frontal rainfall combined rain type occurred. Therefore, rainrate varies based on the synoptic meteorological condition. The most rain drop distribution appeared in the raindrops with diameters between 0.4 mm and 0.6 mm and large particles appeared for the convective rain type since strong upward motion provide favorable conditions for the drops to grow by colliding and merging so the drop size distribution varies based on the location or rainfall types. The rainfall phases is mainly rain and as the diameter of the raindrop increase the fall velocity increase and oblateness decrease. The equation proposed based on the 2DVD tends to underestimated both fall velocity and oblateness compared with observation. Since these varies based on the rainfall characteristics of the observation location, standard equation for fall velocity and oblateness fit for Gimhae area can be developed by continuous observation and data collection hereafter.

넘어짐은 노인이나 산업현장에서 일하는 사람들에게 심각한 부상을 일으키는 원인이 되기 때문에 센서를 사용하여 넘어짐을 판단하고자 하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 최근 들어 스마트폰의 보급이 일반화 되면서 스마트 폰에 내장된 센서를 사용하여 넘어짐을 판단하는 방법이 연구되고 있다. 가속도 센서에서 추출된 가속도벡터의 변화량을 분석하면 넘어짐은 어렵지 않게 판단할 수 있지만, 넘어지는 방향을 판단하기 위해서는 가속도벡터의 크기의 변화나 방향으로의 변화로 판단하기 어렵다. 일반적으로 가속도 벡터의 방향은 물체의 움직임의 방향을 의미하지 않기 때문이다. 한편, 속도 벡터는 물체가 움직이는 방향의 접선방향으로 나타나는 성질을 사용하여 넘어지는 방향을 판단하는 방법을 제안하였다.

국내의 경우는 국토의 70%이상이 산지로 구성되어 있어 도로 개설에 따라 필연적으로 절개면이 발생된다. 더욱이 여름철에 집중적으로 발생하는 태풍, 장마에 의해 절개면의 붕괴가 많이 발생하고 있다. 국내 도로절개면 붕괴 중 낙석이 차지하는 비중이 40.8%이며, 토사붕괴는 29.5%를 차지한다. 낙석의 경우, 절개면 상부 암석의 자유운동에 의해 빠른 시간 내에 발생하고, 토사붕괴의 경우, 집중강우와 관련 쇄설성 유동형태로 도로이용에 많은 인명 및 재산피해를 유발한다. 특히 자동차 운행속도와 토사 붕괴 및 낙석이 떨어지는 속도와의 관계를 고려할 대 불과 몇 초의 짧은 시간에 인명피해를 발생시키게 된다. 본 연구는 최근 국도 주변 붕괴 현장 자료를 분석하고 국내 도로절개면의 특성과 붕괴유형을 근거로 낙석 및 쇄설성 유동에 대한 인명피해를 최소화하기 위한 방안으로 낙석 및 쇄설성 유동 발생시 이동시간, 절개면 통과 차량의 속도와 정지거리의 상관성을 검토하여 도로 경보시스템의 설치기준을 제시하는데 있다. 경보시스템은 낙석발생과 동시에 작동하여 운전자로 하여금 붕괴위치로의 이동을 사전에 차단시킴으로 피해를 최소화한다.

Among the elderly, fatal injuries and deaths are significantly attributed to falls. Therefore, a pre-impact fall detection system is necessary for injury prevention. In this study, a robust threshold-based algorithm was proposed for pre-impact fall detection, reducing false positives in highly dynamic daily-living movements. The algorithm was validated using public datasets (KFall and FARSEEING) that include the real-world elderly fall. A 6-axis IMU sensor (Movella Dot, Movella, Netherlands) was attached to S2 of 20 healthy adults (aged 22.0±1.9years, height 164.9±5.9cm, weight 61.4±17.1kg) to measure 14 activities of daily living and 11 fall movements at a sampling frequency of 60Hz. A 5Hz low-pass filter was applied to the IMU data to remove high-frequency noise. Sum vector magnitude of acceleration and angular velocity, roll, pitch, and vertical velocity were extracted as feature vector. The proposed algorithm showed an accuracy 98.3%, a sensitivity 100%, a specificity 97.0%, and an average lead-time 311±99ms with our experimental data. When evaluated using the KFall public dataset, an accuracy in adult data improved to 99.5% compared to recent studies, and for the elderly data, a specificity of 100% was achieved. When evaluated using FARSEEING real-world elderly fall data without separate segmentation, it showed a sensitivity of 71.4% (5/7).
