This paper addresses the localization and navigation problem using invisible two dimensional barcodes on the floor. Compared with other methods using natural/artificial landmark, the proposed localization method has great advantages in cost and appearance, since the location of the robot is perfectly known using the barcode information after the mapping is finished. We also propose a navigation algorithm which uses the topological structure. For the topological information, we define nodes and edges which are suitable for indoor navigation, especially for large area having multiple rooms, many walls and many static obstacles. The proposed algorithm also has an advantage that errors occurred in each node are mutually independent and can be compensated exactly after some navigation using barcode. Simulation and experimental results. were performed to verify the algorithm in the barcode environment, and the result showed an excellent performance. After mapping, it is also possible to solve the kidnapped case and generate paths using topological information.

In these days, a vehicle simulator is developed by using a VR(Virtual Reality) system. A VR system must provide a vehicle simulator with a natural interaction, a sufficient immersion and realistic images. To achieve this, it is important to provide a fast and uniform rendering performance regardless of the complexity of virtual worlds or the level of simulation. In this paper, modeling methods which offer an improved rendering performance for complex VR applications as 3D road model have been implemented and verified. The key idea of the methods is to reduce a load of VR system by means of LOD(Level of Detail), alpha blending texture mapping, texture mip-mapping and bilboard. Hence, in 3D road model where a simulation is complex or a scene is very large, the methods can provide uniform and acceptable frame rates. The VR system which is constructed with the methods has been experimented under the various application environments. It is confirmed that the proposed methods are effective and adequate to the VR system which associates with a vehicle simulator.

For the effective analysis of two dimensional plane problems with geometrical discontinuities, singular finite element has been proposed. The element matrix equation was formulated on the basis of hybrid variational principle and Trefftz function sets derived consistently from the complex theory of plane elasticity by introducing a conformal mapping function. In order to suggest the accuracy characteristics of the proposed singular finite element, typical plane problems were analyzed and these results were compared with exact solutions. The singular finite element gives the comparatively exact values of stress concentration factors or stress intensity factors and can be effectively used for the analysis of mechanical structures containing various geometrical discontinuities.

A lane sensing algorithm using vision sensors is developed based on lane geometry models. The parameters of the lane geometry models are estimated by a Kalman filter and utilized to reconstruct the lane geometry in the global coordinate. The inverse perspective mapping from image plane to global coordinate assumes earth to be flat, but roll and pitch motions of a vehicle are considered from the perspective of the lane sensing. The proposed algorithm shows robust lane sensing performance compared to the conventional algorithms.

The method of flame hole dynamics is demonstrated as a mean to simulate turbulent flame extinction. The core of the flame hole dynamics involves derivation of a random walk mapping for the flame holes, created by local quenching, between burning and quenched states provided that the dynamic characteristics of flame edges is known. Then, the random walk mapping is projected to a background turbulent field. The numerical simulations are carried out with further simplifications of flame string and unconditioned scalar dissipation rate. The simulation results show how the chance of partial quenching is influenced by the crossover scalar dissipation rate. Finally, a list of improvements, necessary to achieve more realistic turbulent flame quenching simulation, are discussed.

An adaptive finite element method for analyzing two-dimensional and axisymmetric nonlinear elastic fracture mechanics problems with cracks is presented. The J-integral is used as a parameter to characterize the severity of stresses and deformation near crack tips. The domain integral technique, for which all relevant quantities are integrated over any arbitrary element areas around the crack tips, is utilized as the J-integral solution scheme with 9-node degenerated crack tip elements. The solution accuracy is further improved by incorporating an error estimation procedure onto a remeshing algorithm with a solution mapping scheme to resume the analysis at a particular load level after the adaptive remeshing technique has been applied. Several benchmark problems are analyzed to evaluate the efficiency of the combined domain integral technique and the adaptive finite element method.

Under typical operating conditions, flows in microfluidic devices are laminar and molecular diffusion across the channels is slow, which makes an efficient mixing in microfluidic devices difficult to achieve. The mechanism to achieve effective mixing in laminar flows is that of repetitive stretching and folding. Essential is to generate spatially periodic flows with crossing cross sectional streamlines. A mapping method is employed to analyze mixing in micromixers, enabling us to investigate the progress of mixing both qualitatively and quantitatively. The progress of mixing is characterized by a measure of mixing, called the discrete intensity of segregation. The mapping method is applied to mixing in such micromixers as the staggered herringbone mixer, the barrier embedded micromixer, and the three-dimensional serpentine channel to demonstrate the capability of the numerical scheme to tackle general mixing problems in microfluidic devices.

Science mapping is a visual representation of the structure and dynamics of scholarly knowledge. Gas adsorption on catalyst supports is a crucial process in many catalytic reactions. The R package "Bibliometrix" and VosViewer software were employed for science mapping analysis. The results show that the upward trend but fluctuates from year to year for both annual scientific production and average article citations per year. Co-occurrence of the keywords were used to identify the primary fields of study and to map the existing state of research. Trending topics reveal some interesting features that support the growth of research in this field and are associated with emerging disciplines or areas of study that have not been extensively explored.

본 연구의 목적은 MEMS 기반의 INS를 적용한 저가형 MMS를 개발하고, 개발된 MMS를 이용하여 x, y의 평면 거리오차가 0.546m인 정확도를 확보하여 도로시설물의 판독에 활용하고자 함에 있다. MMS 기술은 해외 유수의 측량장비제작 업체를 중심으로 지리정보 구축을 위한 새로운 측량기술로 활발하게 사용되고 있지만 국내에서는 아직 관련 연구가 초기단계에 있다. 또한, MMS 장비개발은 몇몇 연구원 및 업체에서 시도를 하였으나 안정화가 이루어지지 않은 시작품 단계에 불과하다. 이러한 MMS 기술은 빠른 시간 내에 지형 지물 데이터를 취득할 수 있어 정밀지도 제작과 도로시설물 데이터 취득에 활용되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 MMS 제작에 사용하는 각종 센서(LiDAR, CCD camera, GPS/INS, DMI 등)를 동기화하여 MEMS 기반의 INS를 탑재한 저가형 MMS를 개발하고자 한다.
