Recently, safety diagnosis of the existing structures has been emerged as important issue. In particular, systematical and precise safety diagnostics for steel structures for power substation, have been required. Steel structures for power substation are under the periodical impact loads from operations of gas insulated switchgear. These loading condition accelerates damage and aging of structure. The objective of this research is to evaluate damage of structure under periodical impact loads. To evaluate the integrity of structures as organizing mathematical models including the dynamic characteristics of structures, Frequency Domain Decomposition method was choiced and an algorism was proposed. For verifying this methods and algorism, a mathematical model is composed of the development of a variety of reverse analysis and a signal processing technology reflecting physical damage of structures. A series of analysis and test results indicatge that proposed method has a confidence for applying a filed test. Therefore, it is expected to be able to take advantage of system identification to detect damage for the maintenance and management of steel structures under periodical impact loads such as power substation.

In this study, the risk factors which derive from the ground condition of typical construction sites are put forward. In order to prioritize the risk elements, the analytical method of AHP was used. The result of using a weighting factor for each risk analysis showed that if the constituency index is less than 0.1, then reliable results and priorities for each of the risk elements can be calculated using the AHP method. From now on, if the range of measured value can be established, the risk or safety value of concrete structures for power lines can be applicable.

A new index for the buckling strength of non-structured plates is proposed. The external work or the deformation energy caused by the external loads or the boundary displacement controled by a load parameter is calculated along an equilibrium path of the member under consideration. If the second variation of the energy with respect to the parameter loses its positiveness, it defined as the limit of the stability. In contrast to the current method given in codes where the stability limit is evaluated by using only representative internal forces, the evaluation of the stability limit is always consistent even with the change of the distribution of the internal forces on the boundary. If the elasticity is concerned, the result from this proposed approach becomes identical to that from the classical methods.

In a long-span bridge, the cables are important elements that support the load of the bridge. Accordingly, the cable tension is a very important variable in evaluating the health and safety of the bridge. The most popular methods of estimating the cable tensions are the direct method, which directly measures the cable stresses using load cells, hydraulic jacking devices, etc., and the vibration method, which inverses the tensions using the cable shapes and the measured dynamic characteristics. Studies on the use of the electromagnetic (EM) sensor, which detects the magnetic field variations caused by the change in the stress of the steel in the cable, are increasing. In this study, the lift-off test, the EM sensor, and the vibration method (Vision-based System and Accelerometer) were used to measure cable tension, and their results were compared and analyzed.

As the size of embedded system software increase bigger and bigger, and it's complexity is grower and grower, the usage of dynamic memory management scheme such collector also has been increased. Using the garbage collector, however, inherently lead us performance degradation. In order to resolve this kind of performance problem in the Java based embedded system. we introduce an explicit dynamic memory free method to the automated dynamic memory management environment. which can be performed by a programmer. In the worst case, the prosed scheme shows the same performance as the case of that only garbage collector is working, since the unclaimed garbage objects will eventually be collected later by the garbage collector. In the best case. our method is free from any runtime overhead because the applications can be implemented without any intervention of the garbage collector. Although the proposed method can be facilitated with all the existing garbage collection algorithms, it shows an outperform in the case of mark-and-sweep algorithm.

A damage estimation method of wind turbine tower using natural frequency and mode shape is presented for effective condition monitoring. Dynamic analysis for a wind turbine was carried out to obtain the response of tower from which modal properties were identified. A neural network was learned based on training patterns generated by the changes of natural frequency and mode shape due to various damages. The changes of modal property were calculated using a program for modal parameter estimation. Damage locations and severities could be successfully estimated for 10 damage cases including multi-damage cases using the trained neural network. The damage severities for very small damages generally tends to be slightly under-estimated however, the identified damage locations agreed reasonably well with the accurate locations. Enhancement of the estimation result for very small damage and verification of the proposed method through experiment will be carried out by further study.

Recently route guiding system using GPS is spread widely. In the parking management system of complex mall, RFID is mainly used to control status of parking lots. However, in a case that a vehicle only with RFID tag enters into small market-populated district with service of parking lots, there is no parking route guiding system optimized with information of real tine status of parking lots and the system only with GPS can't provide a function of using real time status of parking lots. This paper proposes a location recognizing method of RFID tag object for parking control system to integrated several parking lots in the business district and database-linked route guiding system optimized for parking. The proposed location recognizing method makes the search of optimized parking route possible by abstracting decoding order of tag and antenna number and recognizing direction of tag linked with database. Ihe implemented system that is composed of RFID tag, reader, middleware, server, parking lot clients and mobile clients shows that the proposed method works well and it will be useful for integrated parking control system.

VE analysis is a method to secure definite functions and performance by defining user's various requirements clearly and propose alternatives to reduce cost. However, the present domestic VE project has difficulty in defining design function analysis clearly due to time constraints as well as difficulty in effective and efficient communication between project stakeholder. Domestic results of VE were largely focused on reducing cost while maintaining the functions of the existing facility. Therefore, this study aims to secure the optimal functions for users according to the original intent of user requirements through QFD-VE model which project VE participants can make collective and cooperative decision making. QFD-VE is a technique that first, it can make collaborative decision making in defining and modifying of design function and setting the importance of requirement function. Second, it allow project VE participants to check design interference and conflict between neighbor systems. This study also provided a mathematical model for implementing the computer system using QFD-VE in the future.

Recently, the interest in integrated underground geospatial information mapping (IUGIM) to ensure the safety of underground spaces and facilities has been increasing. Because IUGIM is used in the fields of underground space development and underground safety management, the up-to-dateness and accuracy of information are critical. In this study, IUGIM and field data were classified, and the accuracy of IUGIM was improved by spatial interpolation. A spatial interpolation technique was used to process borehole data in IUGIM, and a quantitative evaluation was performed with mean absolute error and root mean square error through the cross-validation of seven interpolation results according to the technique and model. From the cross-validation results, accuracy decreased in the order of nonuniform rational B-spline, Kriging, and inverse distance weighting. In the case of Kriging, the accuracy difference according to the variogram model was insignificant, and Kriging using the spherical variogram exhibited the best accuracy.
