대장내시경검사는 역사적으로 돌아보면 원래 히포크라테스의 치루치료과정에서 직장경 사용으로부터 유래되며 그 후 Kelly의 25 cm 표준 S상 결장경의 발견으로 진전되었고 조명 및 각종 부속기구들이 많이 개선되면서 직장암의 발견에 기여해 왔다. 1911년에 독일 뮌헨의 Michael Hoffman이라는 광학 기술자가 프리즘을 여러 개를 연결하면 직선이 아닌 곡선에서도 빛을 그대로 전달할 수 있다는 사실을 발견하였고 이를 기초로 하여 1958년에 미국에서 Hirschowitz가 처음으로 섬유경(fiberscope)을 선보였고 그 이후 이용한 상부소화관에 대한 내시경 기술이 급속히 발전하기 시작하였고, 이를 기초로 1969년부터 ACMI, Olympus, Fujinon, Pentax 등 세계 유수의 내시경 회사들이 대장내시경을 제작하기 시작하였다. 1983년에 미국의 Welch-Allyn사가 CCD(Charge Coupled Device)라는 집광 장치를 만들어서 마치 내시경의 눈과 같은 작용을 해서 이것을 내시경 선단에 장치하고 전파를 이용하여 영상을 전달하여 이 상이 TV 모니터에 비치는 것을 보게 되는 전자내시경을 개발하여 현재는 상부내시경 뿐 아니라 대장내시경도 대부분이 전자 내시경으로 대체되어서 오늘에 이르고 있다.

The objective of this study is to present the inspection standards of motorcycle brake system affecting motorcycle traffic accident. The inspection standards of motorcycle brake system recommended by CITA (International Motor Vehicle Inspection Committee) are studied. The brake performance for preventing the traffic accident is assessed by the brake efficiency. Considering the KMVSS (Korean Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) and the inspection standards of CITA, United Kingdom and Japan, the brake performance in the inspection standards of motorcycle is suggested. It is recommended that the efficiency of independent front and rear brakes are 40% and 27%, respectively. It is recommended that the efficiency of combined front and rear brakes is 50%.

플랜트와 같은 장치산업은 내구성 구조물이므로 사용중에 열화가 발생하는 것은 필연적이다. 특히 고온, 고압의 부식환경하에서 사용되는 설비는 손상이 심하므로 가동중에 돌발적인 고장이 발생하여 플랜트의 가동을 중지하거나 파손사고가 일어나 생산손실은 물론 경우에 따라서는 안전사고의 발생, 환경오염 등 사회적인 문제를 일으키므로 이들 설비의 경년열화 실체를 충분히 이해하고 대책을 수립하는 것은 대단히 중요하다. 따라서 본고에서는 장치산업에서 발생하는 열화현상(재료의 연화, 경화 및 취화, 크리프, 피로, 부식, 마모 등)중 손상의 주류를 이루는 연화, 경화 및 취화, 크리프 피로에 대하여 기본적인 손상기구(damage mechanism)와 비파괴적 진단 및 평가 방법에 주안점을 두어, 현재 국내의 각종 플랜트 진단에 실용화된 기술을 해설하여 이 분야에 종사하는 관계자 여러분의 이해에 조금이라도 기여코자 한다.

The ultrasonic inspection system for the expansion/transition area of steam generator tube was successfully developed. Variety of artificial flaw and real track specimen was tested using the UT system to verify the performance of the system. All artificial flaws of which through-wall depth larger than 10% was clearly detected by UT system. Measurement results of through-wall depth of flaws larger than 20% had good linearity and reproducibility with 3.27 of standard deviation. Results of real crack specimen test suggested that the detection limit of real crack strongly depends on the track morphology. A potential for measurement of PRL(percentage of remaining ligament) was recognized by the real crack specimen test.

Recently, KTX (Korean Train Express) train stoppage accidents were mainly caused by malfunctioning equipment, aging and cracking of railway vehicles, crack breakages of brake disks, and breakages of brake disks. Breakage of brake disk can cause large-scale casualties such as high-speed collision and concern about derailment by hitting lower axle and wheel. Therefore, in this study, a brake disk with solid and ventilation type, which is the brake disk of a KTX train was modeled, and a dynamometer system was constructed to operate the disk. A Rayleigh wave was used to inspect the surface of the brake disk. An ultrasonic inspection module was developed for the brake disk by using a local immersion method due to the difficulty involved in ultrasonic inspection using an existing immersion method. In addition, the surface defects of the brake disk were evaluated using a dynamometer mock-up system and an ultrasonic inspection module of the brake disk.

Recently, interests for maintenance of transmission tower are increasing to extend life of structures and reduce maintenance cost. However, existing classical diagnosis method of corrosion deteriorated degree on the transmission tower steel members, visual inspection, has a problem that error often due to difference of inspector's individual knowledge and experience. In order to solve the problem, this study carried out to develop the corrosion deterioration inspection tool for transmission tower steel members. This tool is composed of camera equipment and computer-aided diagnosis system. We standardized the photographing method by camera equipment to obtain suitable pictures for image processing. Diagnosis system was designed to evaluate automatically degree of corrosion deterioration for member of transmission tower on the basis of the RGB color image processing techniques. It is anticipated that developed the corrosion deterioration inspection tool will be very helpful in decision of optimal maintenance time for transmission tower corrosion.

The relative position of the orbital eye can be a criterion for evaluating several pathological conditions. It is especially useful to diagnose orbital fractures, thyroid eye disease, orbital tumors and to evaluate the outcome of medication and surgical treatment. Hertel and Naugle are representative measurement tools used to measure eyeball protrusion values, and have different measurement results, such as fixed orbits, every time they are inspected, even if the same inspector repeatedly measures them. Even with the same calibrator, it is inevitable that different manufacturers will change the design of the stationary part of the orbit, causing the surveyor to make a measurement error. In this paper, we designed and fabricated a protrusion measuring device using a white light interferometer and measured the protrusion of the human eye and found that the precision and repeatability were significantly higher than the manual measurement method.

This study aims to compare and evaluate the image differences between single and dual sources in applying a technique to reduce metal artifacts using dual energy CT. Discovery CT 256 (GE, USA) as a single source device and Somatom Definition Flash (Siemens Health Care, Forchheim, Germany) as a dual source device. The self-made phantom (pigs with medical titanium screws inserted) was quantitative and qualitatively evaluated under the same conditions by varying the dose under the same conditions using a dual energy CT. The evaluation method was compared by measuring SNR for metal artifacts (scattering, stripe) generated by metal inserts, divided around bones and around tissues. There was a difference in images in the method of reducing metal artifacts between single-source and dual-source devices. In a single source device, the linearized prosthesis by metal implantation showed a greater decrease than the image obtained from a double source device, and the surrounding tissue was well observed without interference from the artifact. In dual-source devices, scattering and stripe artifacts caused by metal inserts decreased more than on a single source device, and signals from adjacent tissues surrounding the metal implant were well observed without diminishing. If the examination is conducted separately between single source and dual source devices depending on whether the area to which the patient is intended to be viewed during the examination is adjacent to the metal insert or the total tissue surrounding the metal insert, it is believed that diagnostic helpful images can be obtained.

Many kinds of mass spectrometer type leak detectors have been widely used for detecting leak of vacuum processes in semiconductor and display industries etc. The leak detectors should be often calibrated by the permeation type standard leak in order to ensure accurate and reproducible leak measurement. We have developed a comparative calibration system for permeation type standard leak by using mass spectrometer type leak detector and specification of the calibration method. Following this technique the reliable calibration for leak standard ran be performed even in fields.
