The strain localization of concrete is a phenomenon such that the deformation of concrete is localized in finite region along with softening behavior. The objective of this paper is to develope a consistent algorithm for the finite element modeling of localized zone in the analysis of the strain-localization in concrete. For modeling of the localized zone in concrete under strain localization, a general Drucker-Prager failure criterion which can consider nonlinear strain softening behavior of concrete after peak-stress is introduce. The return-mapping algorithm is used for the integration of the elasto-plastic rate equation and the consistent tangent modulus is derived. Using finite element program implemented with the developed algorithms, strain localization behaviors for the different sizes of concrete specimen under compression are simulated.

In this paper, we propose a sound localization algorithm for two simultaneous speakers. Because speech is wide-band signal, there are many frequency sub-bands in that two speech sounds are mixed. However, in some sub-bands, one speech sound is more dominant than other sounds. In such sub-bands, dominant speech sounds are little interfered by other speech or noise. In speech sounds, overtones of fundamental frequency have large amplitude, and that are called 'Harmonic structure of speech'. Sub-bands inharmonic structure are more likely dominant. Therefore, the proposed localization algorithm is based on harmonic structure of each speakers. At first, sub-bands that belong to harmonic structure of each speech signal are selected. And then, two speakers are localized using selected sub-bands. The result of simulation shows that localization using selected sub-bands are more efficient and precise than localization methods using all sub-bands.

Wireless Sensor Networks have been proposed for several location-dependent applications. For such systems, the cost and limitations of the hardware on sensing nodes prevent the use of range-based localization schemes that depend on absolute point to point distance estimates. Because coarse accuracy is sufficient for most sensor network applications, solutions in range-free localization are being pursued as a cost-effective alternative to more expensive range-based approaches. In this paper, we proposed a modified DV-Hop (range-free localization) algorithm which reduces node's location error and cumulated distance error by minimizing localization error. Simulation results have verified the high estimation accuracy with our approach which outperforms the classical DV-Hop.

본 연구에서는 error-outlier 기반의 충격위치탐지 알고리즘과 다중화된 FBG 센서를 이용하여 탄소섬유 강화 플라스틱 복합재 평판 구조물에 대한 충격위치탐지를 수행하였다. 알고리즘의 주요 변수인 오차 임계값(ET)이 0.3 nm, 상수 수준(CL)이 110일 때 최적의 충격위치탐지 결과(최대 오차= 31.82 mm, 평균 오차= 6.31 mm)가 도출되었다. 또한 주어진 최적의 변수 조건에서의 충격위치탐지 과정과 결과를 상세히 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 다중화된 FBG 센서와 error-outlier 기반의 충격탐지 알고리즘은 복합재 구조물에 대한 충격탐지에 적합한 것으로 판단되며, 향후 다양한 구조 건전성 감시에 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

최근에 Lee 등은 1차원 수평배열 센서만을 사용하여 다중경로를 통해 들어오는 신호로부터 표적의 3차원 위치를 추정하였다. 그러나 이 기법에서 음속은 수심에 상관없이 일정하다고 가정하였기 때문에 음속이 수심에 따라 다양하게 변화하는 실제 해양환경에서는 그 추정 성능이 현저하게 저하된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 비균일 음속 환경에 적합한 근거리 표적의 3차원 위치추정 기법을 제안한다. 제안한 기법에서는 선형의 음속구조를 가지는 근거리 다중경로 환경에서 음파전달 모델을 기반으로 한 위치추정함수를 구성하였으며 이로부터 표적의 방위각, 거리 및 깊이를 3차원 탐색을 통하여 추정하였다. 선형 음속구조 및 실제 환경과 유사한 비선형 음속구조를 적용하여 제안한 기법의 성능을 기존의 기법과 비교, 분석하였으며 기존의 기법에 비해 거리 추정 오차는 최대 100m, 깊이 추정 오차는 50m정도 감소됨을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a real-time indoor location and pose estimation method that utilizes simple artificial markers and image analysis techniques for the purpose of warehouse automation. The conventional indoor localization methods cannot work robustly in warehouses where severe environmental changes usually occur due to the movement of stocked goods. To overcome this problem, the proposed framework places artificial markers having different interior pattern on the predefined position of the warehouse floor. The proposed algorithm obtains marker candidate regions from a captured image by a simple binarization and labeling procedure. Then it extracts maker interior pattern information from each candidate region in order to decide whether the candidate region is a true marker or not. The extracted interior pattern information and the outer boundary of the marker are used to estimate location and heading angle of the localization system. Experimental results show that the proposed localization method can provide high performance which is almost equivalent to that of the conventional method using an expensive LIDAR sensor and AMCL algorithm.

In this paper, a novel algorithm for PD localization in power transformers based on wavelet de-noising technique and energy criterion is proposed. Partial discharge is one of the main failures in power transformers. The localization of which could be very useful for maintenance systems. Acoustic signals due to a PD event are transient, irregular and non-repetitive. So wavelet transform is an efficient tool for this signal processing problem that gives a time-frequency demonstration. First, different wavelet based de-noising methods are analyzed. Then, a reasonable structure for threshold value determining and applying manner on signals is presented. Evaluated errors are good evidences for choices. Next, applying the elimination low energy frequency bands is discussed and developed as a de-noising method. Time differences between signals are used for PD localization. Different ways in time arrival detection are introduced and a novel approach in energy criterion method is presented. At the end, the quality of algorithm is verified through the different assays in lab.

This paper describes real time implementation of subband sound localization system on a floating-point DSP TI TMS320C31. The system determines two dimensional location of an active speaker in a closed room environment with real noise presents. The system consists of an two microphone array connected to TI DSP hosted by PC. The implemented sound localization algorithm is Subband CPSP which is an improved version of traditional CPSP (Cross-Power Spectrum Phase) method. The algorithm first split the input speech signal into arbitrary number of subband using subband filter banks and calculate the CPSP in each subband. It then averages out the CPSP results on each subband and compute a source location estimate. The proposed algorithm has an advantage over CPSP such that it minimize the overall estimation error in source location by limiting the specific band dominant noise to that subband. As a result, it makes possible to set up a robust real time sound localization system. For real time simulation, the input speech is captured using two microphone and digitized by the DSP at sampling rate 8192 hz, 16 bit/sample. The source location is then estimated at once per second to satisfy real-time computational constraints. The performance of the proposed system is confirmed by several real time simulation of the speech at a distance of 1m, 2m, 3m with various speech source locations and it shows over 5% accuracy improvement for the source location estimation.

무선 센서 네트워크에서 위치측정 문제는 위치가 알려진 일부 고정 노드들을 기준으로 나머지 노드들의 위치를 결정하는 문제이다. 기존의 많은 위치 측정 기법들은 고정 노드들로부터의 거리나 각도의 측정값을 기반으로 multilateration 이나 삼각기법(triangulation)을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 서로 전송 범위 내에 있는 노드 쌍에 대해서 가중치를 주어 미지 노드들의 위치를 계산하는 새로운 중앙 집중적 알고리즘을 제안한다. 본 기법은 단순하다는 장점을 지니며, 위치 측정 문제가 일차원 행렬 방정식으로 정형화 될 수 있음을 보여준다. 이러한 일차원 행렬방정식이 유일한 해를 가짐을 수학적으로 증명함으로써 모든 미지 노드들의 위치를 유일하게 결정할 수 있음도 보인다. 가중치는 다양하게 설정될 수 있으나 현실적으로 활용될 수 있을 만한 세 가지 가중치 설정 방법을 제시한 후 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 비교 분석한다.

In this paper, a novel localization algorithm robust to the unmodeled systematic odometry errors is proposed for low-cost non-holonomic mobile robots. It is well known that the most pose estimators using odometry measurements cannot avoid the performance degradation due to the dead-reckoning of systematic odometry errors. As a remedy for this problem, we tty to reflect the wheelbase error in the robot motion model as a parametric uncertainty. Applying the Krein space estimation theory for the discrete-time uncertain nonlinear motion model results in the extended robust Kalman filter. This idea comes from the fact that systematic odometry errors might be regarded as the parametric uncertainties satisfying the sum quadratic constrains (SQCs). The advantage of the proposed methodology is that it has the same recursive structure as the conventional extended Kalman filter, which makes our scheme suitable for real-time applications. Moreover, it guarantees the satisfactoty localization performance even in the presence of wheelbase uncertainty which is hard to model or estimate but often arises from real driving environments. The computer simulations will be given to demonstrate the robustness of the suggested localization algorithm.
