The measurement of wind speed gradient is very important for the detection of hazardous wind shear conditions since they are characterized by the abrupt shift of wind velocity and direction. These weather conditions usually imply high wind speed which requires a high PRF radar for the measurement. However, the measurement of a large absolute wind velocity is not necessary to obtain wind speed gradient. In this paper, a method was proposed to obtain wind speed gradient with a simple low PRF radar which may be very useful for the purpose of practical applications.

In this paper vision based system for detection of golf ball position and spin velocity in screen golf game is introduced. Firstly, an algorithm is presented for finding ball position and its initial linear velocity on the golf court, and secondly, golf ball spin is calculated. These parameters are vital for simulator in order to simulate a real golf environment. Finally, these algorithm have been implemented with acceptable result.

Diverter is an essential element in gravimetric calibration method of flowmeter. Error of diverter are influenced by flow velocity profile of nozzle outlet, motion velocity of diverter and detecting location. That's why, time detection position of diverter is tuned through repetitive test for minimizing error of diverter. Further the diverter must be compared with the other institutions test since the influence on the accuracy of the flow meter used in the test. In this paper, errors (flow velocity profile of nozzle outlet, motion velocity of diverter and detecting location) of diverter are decreased by produced uni-direction diverter and error of gravimetric calibration system is decreased. Uni-direction diverter is calibrated by gravimetric calibration system with precision flowmeter, the flowmeter is calibrated by pipe prover and other institutions and uni-direction diverter is evaluated. Uni-direction diverter is not influenced by flow velocity profile of nozzle outlet, motion velocity of diverter and detecting location. As a result, Uni-direction diverter can calibrate in wider scope since increasing ratio of maximum and minimum flow rate of uni-direction diverter.

This paper presents a new moving object segmentation algorithm using markov random field. The algorithm is based on signal detection theory. That is to say, motion of moving object is decided by binary decision rule, and false decision is corrected by markov random field model. The procedure toward complete segmentation consists of two steps: motion detection and object segmentation. First, motion detection decides the presence of motion on velocity vector by binary decision rule. And velocity vector is generated by optical flow. Second, object segmentation cancels noise by Bayes rule. Experimental results demonstrate the efficiency of the presented method.

This paper aims to present a novelty damage detection method to identify damage locations by the simultaneous use of both the energy and displacement damage indices. Using this novelty method, the damaged location and even the damaged floor are accurately detected. As a first method, a combination of the instantaneous frequency energy index (EDI) and the structural acceleration responses are used. To evaluate the first method and also present a rapid assessment method, the Displacement Damage Index (DDI), which consists of the error reliability (β) and Normal Probability Density Function (NPDF) indices, are introduced. The innovation of this method is the simultaneous use of displacement-acceleration responses during one process, which is more effective in the rapid evaluation of damage patterns with velocity vectors. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method, various damage scenarios of the ASCE benchmark problem, and the effects of measurement noise were studied numerically. Extensive analyses show that the rapid proposed method is capable of accurately detecting the location of sparse damages through the building. Finally, the proposed method was validated by experimental studies of a six-story steel building structure with single and multiple damage cases.

In this paper, we present an ultrasonic velocity and attenuation measurement system. There are many ultrasonic measurement methods that are used in nondestructive testing applications. They include material property determination, microstructural characterization, and flaw detection. Ultrasonic parameters such as velocity and attenuation are most commonly used in them. Advanced signal analysis which is called "ime-frequency analysis"has been used widely in nondestructive evaluation applications. Wavelet transform is the most advanced technique for processing signals with time-varying spectra. Using the echo waveform gathered by the designed hardware system, we performed simulation of the signal processing algorithms. Then the algorithm is implemented on the system.

The mechanical properties of composite materials may degrade severely in the presence of damage. Especially, the high-velocity impact such as bird strike, a hailstorm, and a small piece of tire or stone during high taxing, can cause sever damage to the structures and sub-system in spite of a very small mass. However, it is not easy to detect the damage in composite plates using a single technique or any conventional methods. In this paper, the PYDF(polyvinylidene fluoride) film sensors and strain gages were used for monitoring impact damage initiation and propagation in composite laminates. The WT(wavelet transform) and STFT(short time Fourier transform) are used to decompose the sensor signals. A ultrasonic C-scan and a digital microscope are also used to examine the extent of the damage in each case. This research demonstrate how various sensing techniques, PVDF sensor in particular, can be used to characterize high-velocity impact damage in advanced composites.

The PVDF(polyvinylidene fluoride) film sensor as one of smart sensors has good characteristics to detect the impact damages of composite structures. The capabilities of the PVDF film sensor for evaluating impact behaviors and damages of Gr/Ep laminates subjected to low-velocity impact were examined. From sensor signals, the specific wave-forms implying the damage were detected. The wavelet transform(WT) and Short Time Fourier Transform(STFT) were used to decompose the piezoelectric sensor signals in this study. The impact behaviors of Gr/Ep laminates were simulated and the impact forces were reconstructed using the sensor signals. Finally, the impact damages were predicted by finite element analysis with the reconstructed forces. For experimental verification, a series of low-velocity impact tests from low energy to damage-induced energy were carried-out. The extent of damage in each case was examined by means of ultrasonic C-scan and the measured damage areas were agreed well with the predicted areas by the F.E.A.
