Theoretical analysis have been performed to design the high power semiconductor laser for an optical sensor at 1.55${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ wavelength range which is the lowest loss wavelength in optical fiber. The materials of active region and SCH were $Ln_{1-x}Ga_xAs_yP_{1-y}$. In order to use the light source of optical sensors, it has to satisfy wide spectral width and short coherence length. Therefore, in order to suppress lasing oscillation, we proposed laterally tilted PBH type with a window region. Also, tapered stripe structure was applied for high coupling efficiency into a single mode fiber. From these analyses, the devices of laterally tilted angled and bending structure were fabricated and their characteristics were measured. In the results of the measurement, the fabricated devices have sufficient output power and wide FWHM to apply to the light source of optical fiber sensors.

In general, most of the GIS only deal with materials and geometric data which just include position, radius, length of the structure. Therefore it's hard to get corrosion data from it. But the one that an owner of metallic structures want to know is the integrity of the structure. Cathodic Protection System can not protect corrosion on the underground facilities perfectly but protect corrsion effectively. It therefore is necessary to monitor the facilities continually So, we need the development of GIS interconnected a corrosion prediction system on the view point of the efficiency of operation and the protection for a big accident. The results of the development of its system are described in this paper. It can do life prediction and interference analysis and also newest corrosion data should be updated regularly.

호안은 유수의 침입으로부터 제방 및 하안의 침식 피해를 방지하기 위해 제방에 설치되는 구조물이다. 침식에 의한 제방 및 호안의 대표적인 붕괴특성 중에는 만곡부, 하천 급경사, 지형의 간섭효과 등이 있다. 특히, 만곡부는 원심력, 2차류 등에 의한 수위상승 및 유속증가로 제체에 응력 집중이 발생되어 안정성 저하를 유발할 수 있다. 또한, 만곡부의 흐름 방향전환 현상은 하도내 통수능 저하를 발생시켜 홍수피해를 가중시킬 수 있다. 따라서 하천특성상 만곡부에 의해 발생할 수 있는 홍수피해 요소를 저감시킬 수 있도록 적합한 피해저감대책을 마련할 필요가 있다. 제방의 보강대책으로서 활용되고 있는 호안은 역학적인 측면에서 외력과 저항력의 크기에 따라 안정성이 평가되어야 하며 지역여건 등에 따른 만곡부의 수위상승 및 제방 침식 등을 고려한 설계가 수행되어야 한다. 국내 실무에서 적용되고 있는 호안설계방법은 하천설계기준 해설(2009)을 참고하고 있는데, 흐름현상 및 만곡부 특성 등에 대하여 경험과 이론의 양면을 고려한 설계를 수행하도록 제안하고 있다. 이는 호안 안정성에 대한 역학적 검토 방법의 한계로 비합리적 설계가 될 우려가 있다. 따라서 만곡부에 의한 유속 및 소류력 등 흐름특성을 고려한 정량적인 평가기법이 요구되는 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 수리실험을 통해 만곡에 의한 흐름영향과 수리학적 거동 및 설계요소를 파악하고자 만곡부에 사석호안공을 설치하여 흐름전환 및 유속변화에 따른 사석호안공의 이탈현상을 재현하였다. 실험수로는 곡률반경( )이 4.5 m인 만곡부가 3개소 발생하는 폭 2.3 m, 길이 25 m의 다중 사행수로 형태이다. 실험수로 우안의 1V:2H 경사면에 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 mm 사석을 크기별로 설치하여 만곡에 의한 유속변화 등 흐름현상과 호안공 이탈을 관찰하였다. 수리실험은 고정상으로 수행되었으며 정상류 흐름조건에서 공급유량별 하류단 수위 조절을 통해 만곡부내 호안 공 이탈을 발생시키는 설계인자를 도출하고자 유속과 수심을 측정하였다. 실험결과를 바탕으로 사석호안공 설계시 1차원 접근유속에 만곡 영향을 고려하여 대표유속으로 적용하는 방법의 특성을 파악하고, 사석호안공의 이탈유속과 만곡에 의한 흐름특성간의 상관관계를 분석하여 제원결정기법을 제안하였다.

A metrological atomic force microscope (M-AFM) was developed fur the length measurements of nanometer range, through the modification of a commercial AFM. To eliminate nonlinearity and crosstalk of the PZT tube scanner of the commercial AFM, a two-axis flexure hinge scanner employing built-in capacitive sensors is used for X-Y motion instead of PZT tube scanner. Then two-dimensional displacement of the scanner is measured using two-axis heterodyne laser interferometer to ensure the meter-traceability. Through the measurements of several specimens, we could verify the elimination of nonlinearity and crosstalk. The uncertainty of length measurements was estimated according to the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement. Among several sources of uncertainty, the primary one is the drift of laser interferometer output, which occurs mainly from the variation of refractive index of air and the thermal stability. The Abbe error, which is proportional to the measured length, is another primary uncertainty source coming from the parasitic motion of the scanner. The expanded uncertainty (k =2) of length measurements using the M-AFM is √(4.26)$^2$+(2.84${\times}$10$^{-4}$ ${\times}$L)$^2$(nm), where f is the measured length in nm. We also measured the pitch of one-dimensional grating and compared the results with those obtained by optical diffractometry. The relative difference between these results is less than 0.01 %.

Nonlinear adaptive control of overhead cranes is investigated for anti-sway trajectory tracking with high-speed hoisting motion. The sway dynamics of two dimensional underactuated overhead cranes is heavily coupled with the trolley acceleration, hoisting rope length, and the hoisting velocity which is an obstacle in the design of decoupling control based anti-sway trajectory tracking control law To cope with this obstacle. we propose a fuzzy nonlinear adaptive anti-sway trajectory tracking control law guaranteeing the uniform ultimate boundedness of the sway dynamics even in the presence of uncertainties in such a way that it cancels the effect of the trolley acceleration and hoisting velocity on the sway dynamics. In particular. system uncertainties, including system parameter uncertainty unmodelled dynamics, and external disturbances, are compensated in an adaptive manner by utilizing fuzzy uncertainty observers. Accordingly, the ultimate bound of the tracking errors and the sway angle decrease to zero when the fuzzy approximation errors decrease to zero. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Bearing capacity of a pile in homogeneous soil is the sum of end bearing and skin resistance, and the skin resistance is more prominent in sandy soil. Bearing capacity of a pile in pile groups especially in sandy ground should be designed under the consideration of the influence by the adjacent piles. In this study, the end bearing capacity of a pile in pile groups was experimentally investigated. For this purpose, piles were installed in sandy ground in a circular test box, and end bearing - settlement behavior of the pile was measured while the pile was loaded. As the results, end bearing - settlement relation curves of the piles showed a distinct limit value. Limit value of the end bearing was little affected by skin friction and pile diameter, and it became a constant value as pile penetrates deeper. End bearing was not affected by the adjacent piles in a group of piles, when their clearance was larger than the pile diameter.

The accurate estimation of the number of signals included in the received signal is required for the AOA(: Angle-of-Arrival) estimation, the interference suppression, the signal reception, etc. AIC(: Akaike Information Criterion) and MDL(: Minimum Description Length) algorithms, which are known as the typical algorithms to estimate the signal number, estimate the number of signals according to the minimum of each criterion. As the number of antenna elements increased, the estimation performance is enhanced, but the computational complexity is increased because values of criteria for entire antenna elements should be calculated for finding their minimum. In order to improve this problem, in this paper, we propose AIC and MDL algorithms based on the beamspace, which efficiently estimate the number of signals while reducing the computational complexity by reducing the dimension of an array antenna through the beamspace processing. In addition, we provide computer simulation results based on various scenarios for evaluating and analysing the estimation performance of the proposed algorithms.

Kitchen cabinets are essential furniture for storing the kitchen tools, but their high installed location makes it difficult for users to access the upper of the cabinets. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new type of kitchen cabinet that allows users to easily take out or store items by adding new height adjustment features while maintaining the function of the existing cabinet. For convenience and safety, an appropriate complex link mechanism is designed so that the selected floor, not the entire cabinet, can come down to a desired height with one operation. Moreover, the optimal descent path is set to prevent the floor tilting or interfloor interference during descent, and appropriate link shapes, lengths, and joint types are selected to implement it. FEA analysis is performed to ensure that the stretched complex linkage can support the load of the stored items and the feasibility of the height adjustable kitchen cabinet is verified through fabrication.

Vibration condition monitoring of low-speed rotational slewing bearings is essential ever since it became necessary for a proper maintenance schedule that replaces the slewing bearings installed in massive machinery in the steel industry, among other applications. So far, acoustic emission(AE) is still the primary technique used for dealing with low-speed bearing cases. Few studies employed vibration analysis because the signal generated as a result of the impact between the rolling element and the natural defect spots at low rotational speeds is generally weak and sometimes buried in noise and other interference frequencies. In order to increase the impact energy, some researchers generate artificial defects with a predetermined length, width, and depth of crack on the inner or outer race surfaces. Consequently, the fault frequency of a particular fault is easy to identify. This paper presents the applications of empirical mode decomposition(EMD) and ensemble empirical mode decomposition(EEMD) for measuring vibration signals slewing bearings running at a low rotational speed of 15 rpm. The natural vibration damage data used in this paper are obtained from a Korean industrial company. In this study, EEMD is used to support and clarify the results of the fast Fourier transform(FFT) in identifying bearing fault frequencies.

This thesis is based on the speed variations which are observed both in a sing1e tunnel and a continuous tunnel. Kumdae II tunnel and Chiak I tunnel of Jungang Expressway are selected in order to analyze the characteristics of speed variations according to tunnel intervals I place importance on the computation of tunnel intervals according to the speed variations. there's a summary of the results. The results of the study reveal that speed changes occur both on 1km ahead of tunnel and within the tunnel. The speed change amounts to 7.1km/hr(6.7%) on these survey Points 2.7km/hr (2.9%) on access points, and from -3.6km/hr (-3.8%) to, +4.1km/hr(+4.7%) irregularly on egress points. The magnitude of speed chance appears small on the survey points where an interval of tunnel is short whereas the speed chance turn out to be rather significant on the points where the tunnel interval is long. The analysis of tunnel distances using multiple regression models shows that the appropriate tunnel distance turns out to be 732m. The distance of 732m seem to be providing a fecundation for uniform traffic flow in continuous tunnel conditions.
