  • Collision avoidance for multiple aircraft can be stated as a problem ofmaintaining safe distance between aircraft in conflict. Optimal collision avoidanceproblem seeks to minimize the given cost function while simultaneously satisfyingconstraints. The cost function could be a function of time or control input. This paper addresses the trajectory time-optimization problem for collision avoidance of unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs). The problem is difficult to handle in general due to the two-point boundary value problem subject to dynamic environments. Some simplifying aleorithms are used for potential applications in on-line operation.Although under possibility of more complicated problems, a dynamic problem is transformed into a static one by prediction of the conflict time and some appropriate assumptions.

  • 제한수역에서 바람과 조류와 같은 외력을 받으며 항행하는 선박들 사이에는 대양에서 항행할 때와는 달리 상호간에 여러 가지 작용이 일어나면서 선박의 안전이 위협받는 수가 많다. 본 연구에서는 협수로와 같은 제한수역에서, 해난사고를 피하기 위해 요구되어지는 선박들간의 적절한 안전속도 및 안전거리를 제안하기 위해 선장비, 속도비, 풍향, 풍속, 유향 및 유속 등을 파라메타로 해서 조종운동 시뮬레이션 계산을 행하였다. 시뮬레이션 계산 결과, 두 선박 간의 상호 영향은 대형선박에 비해서 소형선박에 보다 크게 작용하는 것으로 나타났고, 속도비 1.2 의 경우가 속도비 0.6, 1.5의 경우보다 매우 크게 나타났다. 한편, 외력하에서 항행하는 두 선박에 있어서, 고속 선박에 비해서 저속 선박에 미치는 외력의 영향은 상당히 크게 작용하기 때문에 조선할 때, 이 점에 유의하여 항행해야 함을 알 수 있었다.

  • This study is concerned with the disasters that occure in the field of industrial explosives and analyzed by two side the disaster of the manufacturing factory and that of the field, and is studied about the safety and the countermeasure. The industrial explosives accidents occure just accidentaly and unforeseeable, and reappearance experiments are more difficult. The 3E of J.H. Harvey was applied in this study to establish the counter measure of preventation of accidents, overcoming these restricted factores. As a method of technical safety countermeasures. The blasting vibration formula which had been conformed from the Seoul Subway Construction work during 1980-1984 year, was uilized, and, using the formula $V=Kw^{0.5}D^{-1.5}$ for the gneiss which is widely distributed in Pusan area, an index of the minimum and maximum amount of gun powder, to be used according to safety distance was made, and it helped the gun powder managing technician's practical business. During the fore work discharging, the safety distances of felling were theoretically established based on the writer ${\diagdown}s$ experiences of more than 10 years on this field.

  • In tread braking of freight cars, braking force is produced by the friction between the wheel and the braking shoe. Friction coefficients such as the brake power, weight variation and brake shoe types should be sensitively treated as the design parameters. The conditions of the car, empty and weighted, should also be taken into consideration in brake force design and the control of brake force has some limitations in terms of the brake system design so that the brake materials selection should be considered as important measures to solve that difficulties. Friction characteristics of brake materials should remain within the range of maximum and minimum value and the friction performance should remain stable regardless of braking time and temperature. This study presented an experimental evaluation method to secure optimum braking performance by keeping safe braking effect and braking distance by the friction coefficient of the brake shoe of the freight cars.

  • It is evaluated that electric shock risk in bath so that we made and designed a bathtub which is the same size in real public bath. And then, we did an experiment, provided of electric leakage in various conditions, so we measured how to form an electric potential and knew the electric potential is formed variously under exposed conductor in bath. Also, we made certain that electric shock risk is down if we insert an insulated pipe in bathtub pipe which is prevent from being formed the electric field sharply. The results show that the increased shock risk and safe distance are estimated by the bathtub of limited width and depth, and the voltage simulated on the basis of Flux 3D concept is compared with the measured value.

  • This paper presents the smart fan which is operated by a small conventional motor and an ultrasonic sensor. The smart fan generates cool wind with regulated speed of wing by the distance between the user and the fan. In this research, an 8-bit microcontroller (ATmega128) and an ultrasonic sensor (NT-TS601) are utilized for the system control and sensing information. In order to obtain the speed information from the encoderless DC motor, a stroboscope is used, which provides the voltage variation by the motor speed. The proposed smart fan makes the user feel cool, convenient and safe at a low cost.

  • In this study, a tail rotor system for an agricultural RF controlled helicopter was developed and tested. This study concluded the mechanical development of the 'Agro-heli' by completing the tail rotor system and its radio console. The RF control system was closely related with the tail system for the control of flying attitude. The thrust of the tail system balance off the reaction torque, created by the main rotor. Lifting tests with and without the tail system were compared for estimating the consumption of power. The tail system would use $4{\sim}5%$ of the total power which was in an acceptable range. Flying performance and attitude was visually inspected. It showed reliable and safe control during the distance flying trials and could be adapted for utilization in aerial applications. Aerial application using an RF controlled agricultural helicopter may make precise and timely spraying possible.

  • For a safe operation of HVDC systems, the fault location and clearance of faults in the HVDC lines are important. Past methods for fault location on HVDC cable depend on existence of assistance cables and fault resistance, broken cable and environment of fault location. For complement these problems, in this paper, fault location method using traveling wave and cross correlation function is proposed for HVDC cables. Voltage controlled source and current controlled source HVDC were modeled by EMTDC/PSCAD. The proposed algorithm were verified varying with fault distance, fault resistance.
