A mathematical model was developed to simulate the performance of a prototype wind-powered reverse osmosis desalination system. The model consists of two sub-models operated in a series. The first sub-model is the wind-energy conversion sub-model, which has wind energy and feed water as its input and pressurized feed water as its output. The second sub-model is a reverse osmosis (RO) process sub-model, with pressurized feed water as its input and the flow and salinity of the product water or permeate as its output. Model coefficients were determined based on field experiments of a prototype wind powered RO desalination system of the University of Hawaii, from June to December 2001. The mathematical model developed by this study predicts the performance of wind-powered RO desalination systems under different design conditions. The system optimization is achieved using a linear programming approach. Based on the results of system optimization, a design guide is prepared, which can be used by both manufacturer and end-user of the wind-driven reverse osmosis system.

Microstructure pattern generation on light guides in backlight unit (BLU) is an essential process for designing flat panel display, but efficient designing algorithm is still limited to achieve uniform luminescence while maintaining fully random distribution to avoid interference effects. In this study, a molecular dynamics model based pattern generation algorithm has been developed. The proposed algorithm allows a fast and efficient distribution of patterns at specified density within the user-defined computational cells, and its efficiency and performance has been demonstrated with sample cases.

In this Study, as the structure of smart phone display becomes thin to catch up with slim product trend, the reliability of display module is on the rise as a issue for product design. Especially, almost part of cellular phone should undergo drop test when they fall 1.5m above ground. Thus many manufacturers have considered design guide line using CAE and simulation for more efficive usage of limited resources om the martket. This test simulates the case when cellular phone slips through user's flingers while he is talking on the phone. This paper studies a drop simulation of glass for display in smart phone. This design for reliability improvements are suggested on the basis of the results of FE Analysis and display of smart phone design.

In this study, an end-effector robot which is a two-axis delta robot type for upper-limb rehabilitation is designed. It is not only rehabilitation functions that has designed robot but also mechanical and electrical safety devices were constructed to ensure patient safety. By constructing the two-axis delta robot is combined with an LM guide, the operating range and rigidity required for rehabilitation were secured. The electrical safety system which is required for the medical robot was designed, and a safety strategy was established to ensure patient safety and it is applied in the integrated safety circuit. The safety is considered in whole design process from the robot's mechanical design to the electric control unit.

휠체어 사용자의 이동을 방해하는 요소에는 도로의 경사도, 보도 턱과 같은 물리적인 장벽이 있다. 하지만 물리적 장벽을 직접적으로 제거하기에는 한계가 있고, 힘든 곳들도 많다. 이러한 도로사정 속에서 휠체어 사용자들의 이동상의 어려움을 줄이기 위해 목적지까지 안전하게 이동 가능한 길에 대한 정보를 제공하는 시스템, 가디안을 제안한다. 가디안은 웹 상의 지도 서비스에 수치지도의 정보를 추가하여 도로 경사도 및 기타 장애시설의 정보를 제공한다. 또한, 도로마다 색상의 농도에 따른 안전함의 정도를 표시하고, 사용자 참여기능을 이용하여 도로의 돌발상황 상태를 입력하고 확인할 수 있으며, 보호자와의 실시간 연결 기능을 통해 혼자서 이동하는 두려움을 제거하여 안전한 이동의 완성도를 추구하였다. 여기서는 가디안 시스템의 구조 및 구현을 보인다.

The government seismic retrofit project for educational facilities is progressing more actively due to the 2018 Pohang earthquake. It is most important that seismic retrofit constructions are conformed to seismic design to achieve the desired purpose of the project as reduce direct damage caused by earthquake. However, the construction supervision system is not mandatory for the retrofit construction site of small buildings including school buildings according to applicable laws and regulations. The purpose of this study was to develop a guide for constructions management of school building seismic retrofit. In order to achieve this goal, the survey on the construction site was conducted and various problems related to the construction site of school building seismic retrofit was derived Additionally, the systematic checklist was presented according to the user and seismic reinforcement method.

In the Building Act, performance-based fire safety design is being promoted for institutionalization. The behavior of the structure against fire conditions can be predicted by using the advanced numerical analysis method based on the FEM (Finite Element Method) to predict the entire structural behavior including the behavior of the structure, but there is a limit to expressing the fire properties of the space and predicting the fire properties It is difficult to determine the variables to be transmitted to the FEM (Finite Element Method) model from the fire simulation results using FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator). Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to introduce the code user's manual for FDS and FEM unidirectional coupling analysis.

One of the newest trends in AI is emotion recognition utilizing keystroke dynamics, which leverages biometric data to identify users and assess emotional states. This work offers a comparison of four datasets that are frequently used to research keystroke dynamics: BB-MAS, Buffalo, Clarkson II, and CMU. The datasets contain different types of data, both behavioral and physiological biometric data that was gathered in a range of environments, from controlled labs to real work environments. Considering the benefits and drawbacks of each dataset, paying particular attention to how well it can be used for tasks like emotion recognition and behavioral analysis. Our findings demonstrate how user attributes, task circumstances, and ambient elements affect typing behavior. This comparative analysis aims to guide future research and development of applications for emotion detection and biometrics, emphasizing the importance of collecting diverse data and the possibility of integrating keystroke dynamics with other biometric measurements.

In this paper, we present Emergency exit signs are installed to provide escape routes or ways in buildings like shopping malls, hospitals, industry, and government complex, etc. and various other places for safety purpose to aid people to escape easily during emergency situations. In case of an emergency situation like smoke, fire, bad lightings and crowded stamped condition at emergency situations, it's difficult for people to recognize the emergency exit signs and emergency doors to exit from the emergency building areas. This paper propose an automatic emergency exit sing recognition to find exit direction using a smart device. The proposed approach aims to develop an computer vision based smart phone application to detect emergency exit signs using the smart device camera and guide the direction to escape in the visible and audible output format. In this research, a CAMShift object tracking approach is used to detect the emergency exit sign and the direction information extracted using template matching method. The direction information of the exit sign is stored in a text format and then using text-to-speech the text synthesized to audible acoustic signal. The synthesized acoustic signal render on smart device speaker as an escape guide information to the user. This research result is analyzed and concluded from the views of visual elements selecting, EXIT appearance design and EXIT's placement in the building, which is very valuable and can be commonly referred in wayfinder system.
