본 논문은 기존의 가중 메디안 필터에 음의 가중치를 갖는 recursive weighted median(RWM) 필터 구조를 소개하고자 한다. 이는 연산과정에 퍼지 클러스터를 적용하여 또 다른 구조의 RWM 필터를 제안하였다. 제안된 RWM 필터는 infinte impulse response(IIR) 선형 필터의 부류로 상사되는 것으로서 기존의 선형 IIR 필터와는 달리 강건한 대역 또는 고역통과 필터의 특성 뿐만 아니라 피드백 되어진 계수 값에 상관없이 항상 BIBO 시스템에서의 안정성과 잡음에 강건한 특성을 나타낸다. 특히 퍼지 클러스터를 적용하여 중앙값 주변의 값을 적절히 취함으로서 신뢰성과 보다 빠른 연산속도의 성능을 여러 다른 구조의 필터들과 성능 비교 실험을 통해 입증하였다.

The aim of this study is to design a electrogoniometer for the measurement of three dimensional human elbow joint rotations. Using this device and visual monitor, we measured the angle of elbow joint rotations during the goal-directed movements. And we extracted myoelectric signals(MES) to verify the inter-relationship of elbow joint activities and constructed a system for the analysis of the spectrum for MES. The data obtained from this system will be used for the controller signal of prosthetic arm.

The compressive capacity and the soil plugging resistance of single open-ended pipe pile were completely decreased in the previous study on the behavior of shorter single pile during simulated seaquake induced by the vertical component of earthquake. But the capacity of single open-ended pipe pile with greater penetration and the capacity of piles group with shorter penetration were expected to be stable after seaquake motion. In this study, first, 2-piles or 4-piles are driven into the calibration chamber included in saturated fine medium sand with several simulated penetrations, and the compressive load test for each piles group was performed. Then, about 95 % compressive load of the ultimate capacity was applied on the pile head during the simulated seaquake motion. Finally, In confirm the reduction of pile capacity during the simulated seaquake motion, the compressive load test for each single pile or piles group after seaquake motion was performed. During the simulated seaquake, the compressive capacity of open-ended pipe piles with greater penetration ( 〉about 27 m) was not degraded even in deep sea deeper than 220 m and soil plug within open-ended pipe pile installed in deep sea was stable after seaquake motion. Also, in the case of 2-piles or 4-pile groups, the compressive capacity after seaquake motion was not degraded at all regardless of pile penetration depth beneath seabed, sea water depth and seaquake frequency.

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify correlations in hospital nurses' work environment, emotional labor and happiness index to provide basic resources for nurses' happiness at work. Methods: Resources were gathered from 291 nurses who agreed to participate. Random sampling of nurses in nine hospitals in G-do was done between July 15 and August 14, 2014. Data were analyzed using ${\chi}^2$ tests, independent t-test, One-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients and multiple hierarchical regression with SPSS/WIN 18.0. Results: Mean scores (scale of 5) were nurses' work environment, 2.81, emotional labor, 3.24, and happiness index, 2.94. There were significant differences on the happiness index for: age, marriage, children, clinical experience, position, payment, and future work plans and a negative correlation between work environment and emotional labor, emotional labor and happiness index but a positive correlation between happiness index and work environment. Happiness index was influenced by work environment, emotional labor, future work plans. Explanatory power of these variables was 26%. Conclusion: Based on the findings of this study, so it is necessary to improve the work environment and reduce the frequency of emotional labor in order to increase the happiness index of hospital nurses.

Among modem control method, the observer is being used widely because it has the advantage of the guarantee of reliability on financial problem, over heating, and physical shock. However, an existing state observer and a sliding observer have such problems that an experimenter needs to know dynamics and parameters of the system. And also, the high gain observer has such a problem that it has transient state at the beginning of the observation. In this paper, the neuro observer is proposed to improve these problems. The proposed observer complement a problem that occur from increase of gain of High-gain observer in proportion to the square number of observable state variables. And also, the proposed observer can tune the gain obtained by differentiating observational error at transient state automatically by using the backpropagation training method to stabilize the observational speed. To prove a performance of the proposed observer, it is simulated that the comparison between the state estimate performance of the proposed observer and that of sliding, high gain observer is made by using a sinusoidal input to the observer which consists of four layers in stable 2nd order system.

In this paper, the gain of the observer is properly set up using the fuzzy control and Fuzzy-Sliding observer(FSQ) that have a superior transient characteristic and is easy to implement compared to the existing method is designed. It estimate the differentiation of the armature current directly using the armature current measured in the AC motor. It estimate the speed of the rotor using the differentiation. It is proposed speed sensorless control method using the estimated speed. Optimal gain of speed observer(Luenberger observer) was set up using the fuzzy control and adapted speed control of AC servo motor. To verify the performance of designed Fuzzy-Sliding observer, simulation compared with fixed speed observer gain of G.B Wang and S.S Peng's sliding observer is performed. Also, it was proved the excellence and feasibility of the proposed observer from the comparison test with a speed sensor and without a speed sensor which used a highly efficient drive and 400W AC servo motor starting system.

In this paper we have reconstructed an armillary sphere based on the Method of an Armillary Sphere Making described in the Volume 1 of The Collection of Writings on the Scientific Instruments-Uigijipsol (儀器輯說, two volumes) edited in the 1850's by Nam Byong-Chul (南秉哲, 1817-1863) who was a famous Korean states-man-scientist. Nam achieved convenience and accuracy in the measurements of stellar positions in the manner of selective setting the equatorial, ecliptic and horizontal poles by adding a pole axis exchange ring called Jaigeukkwon (載極圈) between the Three Arrangers of Time and Four Displacements. We made use of 3-dimensional graphic software for modelling Nam's armillary sphere which consisted of five layers-eight rings. Results of simulation showed that the pole axis exchange ring functioned properly in setting the equatorial, ecliptic and horizontal coordinates simply by exchange of positions of specified holes on the ring. We ascertained that the invention of Jaigeukkwon solved inherent problems in the conventional Chinese armillary sphere in computation of real ecliptic coordinates. It was revealed that Nam Byong-Chul made great contributions in the East Asian history of armillary sphere making.
