  • The scale of wind turbines has continuously increased over the last decade. Especially, the rapid growth of the rotor diameter has brought about the increase of the tower height and the load on the rotor blade, as can be seen in the case of a 5MW class wind turbine with 126m rotor diameter. This trend means the increasing possibility of system failure. In addition to that, it is impossible for human operators to stay and manage all the turbines in the case of a large-scale wind farm. For these reasons, the operation and maintenance technology is getting more importance. In this paper, we present an unmanned remote monitoring system for MW class wind turbines and its application to YeungHeung wind test bed.

  • Smart device has become an affordable main computing resource for robotic ap-plications in accordance with a fast growth of mobile internet environment. Since the computing power of smart device has been increased, smart device based ro-bot system attempts to replace traditional robot applications with laptop-based system. Methodologies for acquisition of remote sensory information and control of various types of robots using smart device have been proposed recently. In this paper, we propose a robot control system using a monitoring program and a communication protocol. The proposed system is a combination of an educa-tional programming oriented robot named EPOR-S. as small service robot plat-form and a smart device. Through a simulation study using image processing, the feasibility of combination of the proposed robot monitoring program and control system was verified.

  • Soil moisture is a crucial variable in research works of hydrology, meteorology and plant sciences. Adequate soil moisture is essential for plant growth; excesses and deficits of soil moisture must be considered in agricultural practices. There are already several remote sensing methods used for monitoring soil moisture, such as thermal inertia, vegetation water-supplying index, crop water stress index and multi-factor regression. In this paper, an improved method has been discussed which is based on the thermal inertia. We analyzed the problems of monitoring soil moisture using satellites at first, and then put forward an simplified method which directly uses land surface temperature differences to measure soil moisture. Also we have taken the influence of vegetation into account, and import NDVI into the model. The method was used in the study of soil moisture in Heilongjiang Province, China, and we draw the conclusion by the experiments that the model can evidently increase the precision of monitoring soil moisture.

  • Preterm infants are frequently discharged from the hospital with growth retardation. Given the potentially lifelong effects of growth impairmnet during a critical time of development, considerable effort should be focused on improving growth after discharge. Growth monitoring must be based on regular measurements of weight, length, and head circumference to identify those preterm infants with poor growth that may need additional nutritional support. Although prior studies vary in design and the intervention used, the evidence supports the use of fortified formulas in formula-fed preterm infants after discharge. The situation for infants fed human milk is much less clear, it seems prudent to concentrate our efforts on the encouragement of breast-feeding in this population. Catch up growth may have many benefits, and may lead to improved development. However, its long-term metabolic consequences are currently unclear. Understanding the optimal means of providing nutrition after discharge is an ongoing process.

  • A failure analysis of tungsten filaments used in quadrupole mass spectrometer for plasma process monitoring was carried by using SEM and EDS. Failed at high temperature, filaments showed two kinds of failure modes. The one is that diameter of filament became thinner gradually and finally snapped. The other is that filament abruptly snapped almost at a right angle. The EDS analysis showed Fe and C, including W and Fe, on the surface of failed filament. when failed filaments were treated with plasma in mixture of Ar and $CF_4$, the amount of Fe and C decreased. The failure analysis of filament showed that the cause of filament failure is thermal evaporation and grain growth of tungsten at high temperature.

  • Objectives of this study were to develop an application method of a numerical retina using the finite element model and to investigate the performance of image features extraction in comparison to the textural analysis. Using a plant community of radish sprouts, excellent resolution of the finite element retina was revealed. The sensitivity analysis of the finite element retina from engineering point of view was discussed. The importance of sensitivity analysis of the finite element retina was pointed out in terms of extraction of effective image features of plant community . Technical details of maximizing the sensitivity of the finite element retina to populated plant canopy were also discussed.

  • 도로상에서 과속과 그로 인한 교통사고를 방지하기 위하여 교통안전시설물 뿐만 아니라 여러 가지의 속도저감 장치 및 교통공학적인 운영기법이 적용되고 있다. 그러나 우리나라에서 속도 저감 및 과속방지를 위하여 무작위 속도단속에 치중하여 온 것이 현실이다. 하지만 최근 ITS기술을 접목하여 속도를 운전자에게 표출시켜 운전자 스스로 자신의 속도를 자각하게 하여 차량의 주행속도를 저감시키는 가변속도표출기가 도입되어 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 가변속도 표출기의 개념과 사례를 살펴보고 우리나라의 과천에서 설치된 가변속도표출기의 효과를 운영전과 운영중으로 나누어 가변속도표출기가 차량속도 저감에 미치는 영향 분석해 보았다. 또한 다른 속도 저감장치 즉, 속도제한표지, 스쿨죤 안내표지와의 비교를 통한 유효성을 검증하였다.

  • Given the rapidly increasing market penetration of photovoltaic (PV) systems in many fields, including construction and housing, the effective maintenance of PV systems through remote monitoring at the panel level has attracted attention to quickly detect faults that cause reductions in yearly PV energy production, and which can reduce the whole-life cost. A key point of PV monitoring at the panel level is cost-effectiveness, as the installation of the massive PV panels that comprise PV systems is showing rapid growth in the market. This paper proposes an implementation method that involves the use of a panel-level wireless PV monitoring module (WPMM), and which assesses the cost-effectiveness of this approach. To maximize the cost-effectiveness, the designed WPMM uses a voltage-divider scheme for voltage metering and a shunt-resistor scheme for current metering. In addition, the proposed method offsets the effect of element errors by extracting calibration parameters. Furthermore, a design method is presented for portable and user-friendly PV monitoring, and demonstration results using a commercial 30-kW PV system are described.

  • 농업에 정보 통신 기술을 접목한 스마트팜은 단순한 생육 환경 모니터링에서 벗어나 작물 생육을 위한 최적의 환경을 발견하고 자율제어가 가능한 농업의 형태로 나아가고 있다. 이를 위해서는 관련 데이터를 수집하는 것도 중요하지만, 재배 경험과 지식을 가진 농업인 사용자들이 수집된 데이터를 다양한 관점에서 분석하여 작물 생육 환경 제어에 유용한 정보를 도출해야 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 작물 생육과 관련된 데이터를 가지고 필요한 정보를 얻고자 하는 농업인 사용자가 쉽게 데이터 분석을 할 수 있는 웹 서비스를 개발하였다. 개발한 웹 기반 데이터 분석 서비스는 데이터 분석을 위하여 R 언어를 사용하며 Node.js를 위한 익스프레스 웹 애플리케이션 프레임워크를 기반으로 개발하였다. 데이터 분석 서비스를 운영 중인 생육 환경 모니터링 시스템과 함께 적용해 본 결과 사용자는 웹 상에서 CSV 형식의 파일을 입력하거나 직접 데이터 입력함으로써 서버가 제공하는 데이터 분석을 위한 R 스크립트를 실행하여 데이터 분석을 수행할 수 있었다. 서비스 제공자는 다양한 데이터 분석 서비스를 쉽게 제공할 수 있었고, R 스크립트만 새로 추가하면 애플리케이션에 대한 수정 없이 새로운 데이터 분석 서비스 추가가 용이함을 확인하였다.
