Local heating transportation pipe has sensor and return lines to detect water-leakage. There are impulse and resistance comparison measurement types for a water-leakage detection. The impulse type shows large detection error within a measurement range. Since the resistance comparison type can find a comparative accurate single water-leakage point in the measurement range of heating pipe, it has been used to detect water-leakages these days. However if the multi water-leakages are happened in the measurement range of transportation pipe. the resistance comparison type shows a detection error point by the parallel resistance between a detection sensor line and ground. But the detection error will be minimized by the divided transportation pipe loops. In this research, it suggests the design of remote controlled detection system which can divide a large pipe loop and a possible single water-leakage measurement process in each divided loops.

LiDAR has been one of the widely used and important technologies for 3D modeling of ground surface and objects because of its ability to provide dense and accurate range measurement. The objective of this research is to develop a method for automatic detection and modeling of railroad power lines using high density LiDAR data and RANSAC algorithms. For detecting railroad power lines, multi-echoes properties of laser data and shape knowledge of railroad power lines were employed. Cuboid analysis for detecting seed line segments, tracking lines, connecting and labeling are the main processes. For modeling railroad power lines, iterative RANSAC and least square adjustment were carried out to estimate the lines parameters. The validation of the result is very challenging due to the difficulties in determining the actual references on the ground surface. Standard deviations of 8cm and 5cm for x-y and z coordinates, respectively are satisfactory outcomes. In case of completeness, the result of visual inspection shows that all the lines are detected and modeled well as compare with the original point clouds. The overall processes are fully automated and the methods manage any state of railroad wires efficiently.

Compensation characteristics or active filters based on voltage detection are investigated. These active filters act equivalently as a passive circuit so that they may not cause practical problems such as stimulation of resonance in the distribution lines. Thus, these active filters can be used as the general-purpose active filters. On the other hand, these active filters may have a possibility of the anti-resonance associated with the line inductance of the distribution lines. In this paper, the relationship between the anti-resonance and the control parameters of the proposed active filters is clarified. Some methods to avoid the problems due to the anti-resonance are investigated. Experimental results are included to confirm the validity of the investigation presented in this paper.

We propse a novel corner detection algorithm for locating 2D Data Matrix barcode in an image. The proposed method accumulates weight for each cross point defined by every combination of edge points in the image, and detects the corner point of the barcode L-pattern by determining the location of the highest accumulated weight. By designing the weight considering the connectivity of two lines around the cross point, we were able to detect the corner of L-pattern even for the cases that the lines of L-patterns are short. In the experiments, the proposed method showed improved performance compared with the conventional Hough transform based method in terms of detectability and computation time.

Searching the region of interest on the Hough transform domain is done to determine the real road boundary on the high speed way. The mathematical morphology is employed to obtain the gradient image which is utilized in Hough transform. Many possible candidates of lines could appear on the ordinary road environment and simple selection of the strongest line segments likely to be fault boundary lines. To solve such problem, the search area for the candidates of the road boundary which is called the region of interest is limited on the Hough space. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm has been shown with experimental results.

Accurate detection and classification of faults on transmission lines is vitally important. High impedance faults(HIF) in particular pose difficulties for the commonly employed conventional overcurrent and distance relays, and if not detected, can cause damage to expensive equipment, threaten life and cause fire hazards. Although HIFs are far less common than LIFs, it is imperative that any protection device should be able to satisfactorily deal with both HIFs and LIFs. This paper proposes an algorithm for fault detection and classification for both LIFs and HIFs using Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System(ANFIS). The performance of the proposed algorithm is tested on a typical 154[kV] Korean transmission line system under various fault conditions. Test results show that the ANFIS can detect and classify faults including (LIFs and HIFs) accurately within half a cycle.

This paper proposed a high impedance fault detection method using a neural network on distribution lines. The v-I characteristic curve was obtained by high impedance fault data tested in various soil conditions. High impedance fault was simulated using EMTP. The pattern of High Impedance Fault on high density pebbles was taken as the learning model, and the neural network was valuated on various soil conditions. The average values after analyzing fault current by FFT of evenr·odd harmonics and fundamental rms were used for the neural network input. Test results were verified the validity of the proposed method.

In MAGLEV system, the train detection can be achieved by using cross inductive radio lines and antennas, because it is impossible to obtain the short circuit between rail and iron-wheel. In this paper, the experimental results of speed profile which is held on MAGLEV at KIMM are presented. We could obtain the successful experimental results for the speed pulses by the inductive radio lines.

In this paper, we developed the inspection system of electric vehicle pouch battery using image processing. Line scan cameras are used for acquiring the all parts of the pouch battery, and several steps of image processing for extracting significant dimensions(User Required Position) of the battery. In image processing, edge lines, node points, dimension lines, etc. were extracted using Preprocessor, Square Edge Detection, and Size Detection algorithms. This is used to measure the dimensions of the location requested by the user on the pouch battery. For verification of the inspection system, the dimensions of three pouch batteries produced in the same process were measured, and the mean and standard deviation were obtained to confirm the precision.

We present and discuss the Tropopause Folding Turbulence Detection (TFTD) algorithm for the Korean Communication, Ocean, Meteorological Satellite (COMS) which is originally developed for the Tropopause Folding Turbulence Product (TFTP) from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES)-R. The TFTD algorithm assumes that the tropopause folding is linked to the Clear Air Turbulence (CAT), and thereby the tropopause folding areas are detected from the rapid spatial gradients of the upper tropospheric specific humidity. The Layer Averaged Specific Humidity (LASH) is used to represent the upper tropospheric specific humidity calculated using COMS $6.7{\mu}m$ water vapor channel and ERA-interim reanalysis temperature at 300, 400, and 500 hPa. The comparison of LASH with the numerical model specific humidity shows a strong negative correlation of 80% or more. We apply the single threshold, which is determined from sensitivity analysis, for cloud-clearing to overcome strong gradient of LASH at the edge of clouds. The tropopause break lines are detected from the location of strong LASH-gradient using the Canny edge detection based on the image processing technique. The tropopause folding area is defined by expanding the break lines by 2-degree positive gradient direction. The validations of COMS TFTD is performed with Pilot Reports (PIREPs) filtered out Convective Induced Turbulence (CIT) from Dec 2013 to Nov 2014 over the South Korea. The score test shows 0.49 PODy (Probability of Detection 'Yes') and 0.64 PODn (Probability of Detection 'No'). Low POD results from various kinds of CAT reported from PIREPs and the characteristics of high sensitivity in edge detection algorithm.
