수렴다중촬영기법을 응용하여 개발된 가이드포인트법(GP법)의 측정 시스템을 개발하였다. GP법은 사진측량기법의 하나로 본 연구에서는 암반 사면에 노출된 절리의 방향성을 측정하기 위하여 개발된 시스템을 적용하였다. 개발된 기법의 현장 적용에 앞서 오차 수준과 촬영영향요소 분석을 위해 실내검증시험 및 최적촬영배열 설계가 이루어졌다. 실내 검증 결과 적정 수렴각은 $25^{\circ}{\sim}150^{\circ}$로 나타났으며, 2M 화소의 디지털 사진기를 사용할 경우 측정 오차 한계를 만족하는 최적 촬영거리는 약 5.5 m이었다. 현장 석용에서는 GP법의 효용성을 극대화하기 위하여 본 연구에서 개발된 확장해석 기법이 적용되었다. 확장해석기법은 넓은 지역에 대한사진측량 조사를 실시할 경우 적용할 수 있는 것으로 최초 촬영면에서 측정된 특정 점들의 좌표를 인접한 다음 촬영면에서 조절점으로 사용함으로써 현장에서의 촬영 시간을 단축시킬 수 있는 방법이다.

모션 캡처 장치는 자연스러운 인체 동작을 생성하는 것을 용이하게 하여 영화, 컴퓨터 게임, 컴퓨터 애니메이션 등 여러 분야에서 폭넓게 사용되고 있다. 그 중 관성 센서를 활용한 모션 캡처 장치는 보다 널리 사용되고 있는 광학 모션 캡처 장비에 비해 소요 공간과 비용 측면에서 이점을 가지고 있으나 비교적 높은 노이즈로 인해 측정 결과의 정밀도가 떨어지는 단점이 있다. 특히 관성 센서에 포함되어 중력 방향을 계측하는 가속도 센서는 센서의 선형 가속 운동으로 인해 중력 방향의 계측 정밀도가 떨어지는 문제를 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 관절체에 부착된 센서의 자세 측정 정확도를 높이기 위해 가속도 센서에서 선형 가속도 성분을 제거하는 기법을 제안한다. 아울러 센서가 부착되어 있는 관절체의 회전축 및 센서의 부착 위치를 보정하는 기법을 소개한다. 이 보정 기법은 관성 센서가 관절체의 임의의 위치와 방향으로 부착되는 것을 가능하게 한다.

고속도로 건설을 위한 본 조사지역과 그 주위에는 중생대 백악기의 퇴적암류와 화산암류인 응회암, 치밀 안산암 및 조립 안산암들이 분포하며, 이 암석들을 산성 및 염기성 암맥들이 관입하며 분포하고 있다. 조사지역에서의 주요 불연속 면들은 퇴적암의 충리, 절리 및 단층들로 구성되고 있다. 퇴적암의 층리의 주향은 시점구간에서는 거의 동서방향으로 발달하고 있으나 점차 북동방향으로 휘어졌다가 공구의 중간부이후에서는 거의 남북방향으로 방향이 변하고 있다. 공구내의 절리는 다양한 방향에 걸쳐 발달하며 경사각은 대체로 70도 이상으로 급경사를 이루고 있다. 퇴적암 내에서는 3 내지 4조의 절리군이 발달하나 암맥류가 분포하는 구간에서는 절리의 방향이 훨씬 분산되어 있다. 삼포단층이 공구내의 이리재를 중심으로 북동방향으로 골짜기를 따라 발달하며 구간 STA50k+600에서 STA51k+000구간에는 북서방향의 정단층이 자주 발달하고 있다. 터널굴착시 단층대를 제외한 구간에서는 불연속면들의 방향성에 따른 영향은 없을 것이지만, 층리의 간격이 좁고 많은 절리의 발달로 터널굴착시 터널벽면에서 여굴이 일어날 수 있다.

In 1his paper, applicability of laser welding to joining process of single crystal nickel base superalloy turbine blades was investigated. Because heat input of laser welding is more precisely controlled 1han TIG welding, it is possible to optimize solidification microstructure of the welds. Since in single crystal nickel base superalloy the crystal orientation have a significant effect on the strength, it is important to control the solidification microstructure in the fusion zone. A single crystal nickel base supera1loy, CMSX-4, plates were bead-on welded and butt welded using a $CO_2$ laser. The effects of microstructure and crystal orientation on properties of the weld joints were investigated. In bead-on weldling, welding directions were deviated from the base metal [100] direction by 0, 5, 15 and 30 degrees. The welds with deviation angles of 15 and 30 degrees showed fusion zone transverse cracks. As the deviation angles became larger, the fusion zone had more cracking. In the cross section microstructure, the fusion zone grains in 0 and 5 degrees welds grew epitaxially from the base metal spins except for the bead neck regions. The grains in the bead neck regions contained stray crystals. As deviation angles increased, number of the stray crystals increased. In butt welding, the declinations of the crystal orientation of the two base metals varied 0, 5 and 10 degrees. All beads had no cracks. In the 5 degrees bead, the cross section and surface microstructures showed that the fusion zone grains grew epitaxially from the base metal grains. However, the 10 degrees bead, the bead cross section and surface contained the stray crystals in the center of the welds. Orientations of the stray crystals accorded with the heat flow directions in the weld pool. When the welding direction was deviated from the base metal [100] direction, cracks appeared in the area including the stray crystals. The cracks developed along the grain boundaries of the stray crystals with high angles in the final solidification regions at the center of the welds. The fracture surfaces were covered with liquid film. The cracks, therefore, found to be solidification cracks due to the presence of low melting eutectic. As the results, in both bead-on welding and butt welding the deviation angles should be control within 5 degrees for preventing the fusion zone cracks. To investigate the mechanical properties of the weld joints, high temperature tensile tests for bead-on welds with deviation angles of 0 and 5 degrees and the butt welds with dec1ination angles of 0, 5 and 10 degrees were conducted at 1123K. The the tensile strength of all weld joints were more 1han 800MPa that is almost 80% of the tensile strength of the base metal. The strength of the laser weld joints were more than twice that of tue TIG weld joints with a filler metal of Inconel 625. The results reveals 1hat laser welding is more effective joining process for single crystal nickelbase superalloy turbine blades 1han TIG welding.

In order to utilize a parallel mechanism as a machine tool component, it is important to estimate the errors of its end-effector due to the uncertainties in parts. This study proposes an error analysis for a new parallel device, a cubic parallel mechanism. For the parallel device, we consider two kinds of errors. One is a static error due to link stiffness and the other is a dynamic error due to clearances in the parts. In this study, we propose a stiffness model for the cubic parallel mechanism under the assumption that the link stiffness is a linear function of the link length. Also, from the fact that the errors of u-joints and spherical joints are changed with the direction of force acting on the link, they are regarded as a part of link errors, and then the error model is derived using forward kinematics. Lastly, both the error models are integrated into the total error, which is analyzed with a test example that the platform moves along a circular path. This analysis can be used in predicting the accuracy of other parallel devices.

Slope stability analysis of the right abutment of a railway bridge proposed at about 350 m above the ground level, crossing a river and connecting two huge hillocks in the Himalayas, India is presented in this paper. The site is located in a highly active seismic zone. The rock slopes are intensely jointed and the joint spacing and orientation are varying at different locations. Static slope stability of the rock slope is studied using equivalent continuum approach through the most commonly used commercial numerical tools like FLAC and SLOPE/W of GEOSTUDIO. The factor of safety for the slope under static conditions was 1.88 and it was reduced by 46% with the application of earthquake loads in pseudo-static analysis. The results obtained from the slope stability analyses confirmed the global stability of the slope. However, it is very likely that there could be possibility of wedge failures at some of the pier locations. This paper also presents the results from kinematics of right abutment slope for the wedge failure analysis based on stereographic projections. Based on the kinematics, it is recommended to flatten the slope from 50o to 43o to avoid wedge failures at all pier locations.

This paper presents results of numerical studies completed on unreinforced and doubler plate reinforced Elliptical Hollow Section (EHS) T-joints subjected to axial compressive loading on the brace member. Non-linear finite element (FE) models were developed using the finite element code, ABAQUS. Available test data in literature was used to validate the FE models. Subsequently, a parametric study was carried out to investigate the effects of various geometrical parameters of main members and reinforcement plates on the ultimate capacity of reinforced EHS T-joints. The parametric study found that the reinforcing plate significantly increases the ultimate capacity of EHS T-joints up to twice the capacity of the corresponding unreinforced joint. The thickness and length of the reinforcing plate have a positive effect on the ultimate capacity of Type 1 joints. This study, however, found that the capacity of Type 1 orientation is not dependent on the brace-to-chord diameter ratio. As for type 2 orientations, the thickness and length of the reinforcement have a minimal effect on the ultimate capacity. A new design method is introduced to predict the capacity of the reinforced EHS T-joints Type 1 and 2 based on the multiple linear regression analyses.

A vision-based 3D tracking of articulated human hand is one of the major issues in the applications of human computer interactions and understanding the control of robot hand. This paper presents an improved approach for tracking and recovering the 3D position and orientation of a human hand using the Kinect sensor. The basic idea of the proposed method is to solve an optimization problem that minimizes the discrepancy in 3D shape between an actual hand observed by Kinect and a hypothesized 3D hand model. Since each of the 3D hand pose has 23 degrees of freedom, the hand articulation tracking needs computational excessive burden in minimizing the 3D shape discrepancy between an observed hand and a 3D hand model. For this, we first created a 3D hand model which represents the hand with 17 different parts. Secondly, Random Forest classifier was trained on the synthetic depth images generated by animating the developed 3D hand model, which was then used for Haar-like feature-based classification rather than performing per-pixel classification. Classification results were used for estimating the joint positions for the hand skeleton. Through the experiment, we were able to prove that the proposed method showed improvement rates in hand part recognition and a performance of 20-30 fps. The results confirmed its practical use in classifying hand area and successfully tracked and recovered the 3D hand pose in a real time fashion.

We construct and test the polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) system for imaging porcine and human articular cartilages. PS-OCT is a new imaging technology that provides information regarding not only the tissue structures but tissue components that show birefringence such as collagen. In this study, we measure the cartilage thickness of the porcine joint and the phase retardation due to collagen birefringence. Also, we demonstrate that changes of the collagen fiber orientation could be detected by the PS-OCT system. Finally, differences between normal and damaged human articular cartilage are observed using the PS-OCT system, which is then compared with the regular histology pictures. As a result, the PS-OCT system is proven to be effective for diagnosis of the pathology related to the cartilage. In the future, this technology may be used for discrimination of the collagen types. When combined with endoscope technologies, the PS-OCT images may become a useful tool for in vivo tissue testing.

용접구조에서 피로파괴는 피로균열의 성장거동에 주로 지배를 받는다. 특히 용접방향과 피로균열 성장방향의 이방성은 용접부 피로파괴의 중요한 영향인자가 된다. 피로이력을 갖고 있는 강재와 피로이력이 없는 강재를 용접시 저 ${\Delta}K$ 영역에서는 모재의 재질적인 영향인자보다 잔류응력의 영향이 크게 작용하였다. 그러나 균열이 용착금속에서 성장을 하는 경우는 용착금속의 인성이 가장 중요한 영향인자가 되는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 특히 용착금속의 인성불균일은 $da/dN-{\Delta}K$ 관계를 넓게 분포시킨다.
