This paper studies on the noncontact displacement sensor system to detect the displacement of the cylinder rod. For an inexpensive and a simple process, magnetic scales are printed on the cylinder rod, and magnetized by the specially designed magnetizer that has an yoke through the alternation of N and S pole. Noncontact displacement sensor system consists of cylinder with magnetic scales, Hall sensor, linear guide, controller and display. The system can detect the displacement of moving cylinder with 5 cm/sec in the case of 1 mm magnetic scale. It shows a possibility of position detection of hydraulic cylinder and air cylinder.

Optical measurement methods make it possible to detect object displacements with high resolution and noncontact measurements. Also, they are very robust against EMI noises and have long operation range. An optical triangulation sensor is one of widely used displacement measurement sensors for its sub-micron resolution, fast response, simple structure, and low cost. However. there are several errors caused by inclinations of a surface. speckle effects, power fluctuations of light sources, and noises of detectors. In this paper, in order to minimize error effects, we performed error analysis and proposed a new structure. Then, we setup a new modeling method and verify it through simulations and experiments. Based on the new model. we propose a new sensor structure and establish design criteria. Finally, we design a signal processing system to overcome a resolution-limited problem of light detectors. The resolution of the proposed system is 0.2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in 5mm operating range.

In this paper, a new, simple capacitive tilt sensor with a metallic ball is proposed. The proposed tilt sensor has only two electrodes and a metallic ball, and this design assists in managing the inherent contact problem in measuring tilt angles. Capacitive sensing, compared with other types of tilt sensor, has many advantages such as simplicity, noncontact measurement, long-throw linear displacement, and sub-micron plate spacing. Its design and fabrication process are significantly simpler than previous types of tilt sensors. The dimensions of the prototype tilt sensor are $20mm{\times}20mm$, and the diameter of the polystyrene tube is 5 mm with a tube thickness of 0.15 mm. An analytical study of the prototype capacitive tilt sensor was undertaken, and the experimental results demonstrate the relationship between the tilt angles and measured capacitances compared with the analytical study.

This paper deals with the method of vibration measurement of a gun barrel structure using mechanical filter. When a bullet with high speed is moving within a gun barrel type structure with low bending vibration frequencies, it is difficult to measure the bending vibration signals of the structure. For example, noncontact type sensors such as displacement or velocity sensor are not appropriate for the measurement of vibrational signals because of the movement effect of the equipment frame through the moving structures or effect of the ground vibration. One of contact type sensors such as accelerometer is profitable for measurement of vibrational signals because of its wide measurement ranges. In the case of a gun barrel structure including high vibrational signals like shock waves, however, it is necessary to propose vibration measurement method filtering high frequencies. The purpose of the paper is to propose the proper vibrational measurement technique filtering high frequencies of a gun barrel type structure.

금속물체의 피로도를 측정하기 위하여 고속으로 진동시키면서 비접촉으로 정밀하게 변위를 측정하는 방법에 대한 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 비접촉 고속 진동 검출센서들은 와류 센서나 레이저 센서들을 주로 사용하고있지만 매우 고가이다. 최근 저가의 유도성 센서를 고속 진동검출에 적용하려는 연구가 이루어지고 있으나 아직은 초보단계이다. 본 연구에서는 저가의 유도성 센서를 이용하여 비접촉으로 고속 진동을 검출하는 새로운 근접 센서모듈 설계방법을 제안하였다. 기존의 유도성 센서모듈들은 검파, 적분, 및 증폭과정을 통하여 변위를 검출하기 때문에 아날로그회로 특성상 잡음에 약하고 적분과정에서 변위 검출속도 저하의 요인이 된다. 제안된 방법은 AD변환기(Analog to Digital converter)를 사용하지 않고 진동 주파수신호를 직접 디지털 신호로 변환하는 새로운 방법으로 아날로그 잡음의 영향을 적게 받으며 고속으로 신호를 처리할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 성능 평가를 위하여 셰이커로 진동 주파수를 30Hz부터 1,100Hz 까지 일정간격으로 금속편을 진동시키면서 제안된 센서 모듈을 이용하여 비접촉으로 진동 신호를 검출하였다. 실험결과 비접촉 근접 거리 5mm 이내에서 진동 주파수 검출범위는 DC에서 1,100Hz까지 측정할 수 있었으며 진동 폭의 해상도는 $20{\mu}m$로 나타났다. 따라서 제안된 유도성 센서모듈은 정밀 비접촉 고속 진동검출 센서로서 충분한 성능을 가지고 있다고 평가된다.

The authors' research group has developed a noncontact type of sensors which directly measure the inter-story drift displacements of a building during a seismic event. Soon after that event, such seismically-induced drift displacement data would provide structural engineers with useful information to judge how the stories have been damaged. This paper presents a scheme of estimating the story cumulative plastic deformation ratios based on such measured drift displacement information toward the building safety monitoring. The presented scheme requires the data of story drift displacements and the ground motion acceleration. The involved calculations are rather simple without any detailed information on structural elements required: the story hysteresis loops are first estimated and then the cumulative plastic deformation ratio of each story is evaluated from the estimated hysteresis. The effectiveness of the scheme is demonstrated by utilizing the data of full-scale building model experiment performed at E-defense and conducting numerical simulations.

본 논문에서는 기존 파고 측정 센서의 한계를 극복하기 위하여 레이저 장비 중 LDV를 이용하여 동조액체기둥감쇠기 안의 액체의 파고를 측정하는 방법을 제안하고 검증하였다. 비접촉 센서의 장점과 LDV가 속도와 변위를 측정하는 원리를 기술하였고 대상 물체가 액체인 경우에 요구되는 사항들에 대하여 실험적으로 파악하였다. 투명한 액체는 레이저 광선을 대부분 투과시켜 LDV에 되돌아오는 광량이 부족해 측정이 불가능함을 확인하였고 이를 증가시키기 위해 염료를 혼합하였다. 이때, 염료의 색에 따라 광량에 차이가 발생함을 확인하여 LDV에 사용된 레이저 광선의 파장과 연관된 결과를 도출하였다. 염료를 혼합한 후 광량이 충분한 경우에도 발생하는 데이터의 오차를 제거하기 위해 염료의 농도를 변화시키며 그에 따른 데이터의 정확도를 파악하였다. 결과적으로 모든 가시광선의 빛을 반사시키는 흰색의 염료를 충분한 농도로 혼합하였을 때 LDV를 이용한 TLCD의 파고 측정의 실험적인 결과가 용량식 파고계와 일치함을 확인하였다.

This paper investigates the radial performance of self-acting spiral-grooved air bearing, used to support small high-speed rotating bodies. Repeatable runout, nonrepeatable runout, stiffness and supporting load are selected as the performance. The clearance between rotor and stator, the stator groove depth, and the rotating speed are chosen as three main parameters affecting the performances. Force application and displacement measurement are done in a noncontact manner, in order not to disturb operation: electromagnetic force is applied to the rotor and gap sensors are used to measure the displacement of the rotor. Experimental results show that repeatable runout decreases as speed, groove depth and clearance decrease. Nonrepeatable runout decreases as clearance decreases, and it has a minimum value at $5.5{\mu}m$ of grove depth and a maximum value at speed of 18.000rpm. Stiffness increases as speed increases and clearance decreases, and has a maximum value around $5.5{\mu}m$ of groove depth. The relationship between force and displacement is linear for small displacement, but becomes nonlinear for large displacement. Supporting load is linearly proportional to the stiffness, and it is a maximum value around $4.75{\mu}m$ of clearance.
