We have established 88 auxiliary gravity reference stations by using two gravitimeters at the observation offices of the Korean meteorological agency and measured the locations by using GPS. All gravity values have been calculated on the basis of the gravity reference point at Pusan National University, thus, they have been established to bge easily converted to new absolute gravity value later. The increased numbers of the gravity reference stations will minimize errors due to measurements, drift correction etc. and increase the accuracy of the gravity data. The result of this research will be used to verify the gravity data which calculated with the relative gravity meter and to inspect relative gravity meters.

Using modified Lincoln solution, hydroponic system was developed to compare simultaneously a range of pasture species in terms of relative growth rate(RGR), rate of roots to shoots, and relative root volume and root area. Modified Lincoln solution achieved optimum growth of nineteen forage species tested, and was proved to be a good method for studying plant root characteristics. RGR was measured sucesshlly showing reasonably consistant values over time. There was a much differences in rootkhoot ratio between species within groups as between groups. Root tissue density was lower in grasses than legume or herb group. Root area index was very high for grasses and herbs, and this index should be useful for evaluating the comparative root system of different species.

Forest biomass is used as a representative indicator of forest size, maturity, and productivity. Therefore, quantitative evaluation is important for management and harvest as well as the evaluation of ecosystem functions and services including CO₂ absorption. The allometric equation is a widely used method for estimating the value of each component through the relative growth rate of plants. Recently, studies indicated that the relative growth of trees is changing because of the increased CO₂ concentration in the atmosphere and the resulting climate change, raising the need to review the previously developed relative growth models and coefficients. In this study, the height-diameter at breast height (DBH) relationships of four major tree species in Korea [(Pinus densiflora (PD), Larix kaempferi (LK), Quercus variabilis (QV), and Quercus mongolica (QM)] were analyzed using the 5th-7th National Forest Inventory (NFI) data. Furthermore, these results were compared with the present yield table from the National Institute for Forest Science. This analysis revealed that the expected height for the same DBH increased as the NFI progressed. For example, in model analysis, the expected heights for PD, LK, QV, and QM for DBH of 25 cm were 12.48, 19.17, 14.47, and 13.19 m, respectively, in the 5th NFI data. In the 7th NFI data, these values were estimated as 13.61 (+9.1%), 21.58 (+12.7%), 15.76 (+8.9%), and 13.93 m (+5.6%), respectively. These results indicate that the major tree species in South Korean forests currently are more vigorous in height growth than in diameter growth when compared to the height-DBH development trends by tree species identified through past survey data.

Radial and vertical variations of relative crystallinity and crystallite width of cellulose within stems of three softwoods (Pinus densiflora S. et Z., P. koraiensis S. et Z, P. rigida Mill.) grown in Korea were examined by an X-ray diffraction method. The mean of relative crystallinity was 61.7% in P. koraiensis, 60.6% in P. densiflora and 49.4% in P. rigida. The degree of crystallinity in earlywood and latewood increased with the age from pith to about 10~15 years, and then remained almost constant value. The relative crystallinitiy of latewood was slightly higher than that of earlywood. The relative crystallinity in P. densiflora was a little lower at the base of stem, but no significant difference by height was shown in P. koraiensis and P. rigida. The crystallite widths in the stems were 2.8 to 3.0 nm, but were not significantly different in earlywood and latewood by height. In conclusion, the relative crystallinity appeared to be a useful index for separating juvenile wood from adult wood in the softwoods of P. densiflora, P. koraiensis, and P. rigida grown in Korea.

This study analyzed the relative vehicle speed and vehicle deceleration time caused by traffic conflicts using vehicle speed data at expressway toll gates and traffic conflict occurrence data. According to the analysis, the greater the relative vehicle speed is at the toll gate, the more sudden vehicle deceleration occurs due to traffic conflicts. In particular, a comparison study of cases in similar operating conditions presents a finding that usage of lanes influences traffic conflict occurrences as well as relative vehicle speed. With this finding, the study further conducted a quantitative analysis of the accident rates in relation to the relative vehicle speed between vehicles using a "Hi-Pass" lane and a regular lane at the toll gate. It indicates that when the relative vehicle speed is greater, the accident rate is higher due to sudden vehicle deceleration and shorter deceleration time. Furthermore, when the expressway entrance/exit point is closely located to a toll gate and the relative vehicle speed is great, a analysis at a traffic conflict shows a low value.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a program to measure and to judge the accuracy of yoga postures using Azure Kinect. The program measures all joint positions of the user through Azure Kinect Camera and sensors. The measured values of joints are used as data to determine accuracy in two ways. The measured joint data are determined by trigonometry and Pythagoras theorem to determine the angle of the joint. In addition, the measured joint value is changed to relative position value. The calculated and obtained values are compared to the joint values and relative position values of the desired posture to determine the accuracy. Azure Kinect Camera organizes the screen so that users can check their posture and gives feedback on the user's posture accuracy to improve their posture.

This paper proposes a removal method of signal interference between ultrasound sensors where ghost signals due to interference are excluded and correct signal is recognized in distance mensurement using ultrasound sensors. The proposed method detects and excludes ghost signals when previous measured distance is compared to current measured distance and the distance difference exceeds a threshold. The threshold is fixed in conventional methods, so ghost signals cannot be correctly excluded when ultrasound sensor or target object move rapidly. On the contrary, to improve accuracy, the threshold is not fixed in the proposed method, and the threshold is adpatively determined based on the relative velocity when ultrasound sensor or target object move. Experiments of distance measurement with ultrasound signal interference are carried out where multiple ultrasound sensors of same type are exploited with maximum interference, and the results show that the proposed method efficiently exclude ghost signals.

바인다로서 에폭시 수지와 전도성 금속 충전물로서 은분을 그리고 기타 첨가물을 사용하여 패이스트를 제조하고 전도성 후막을 형성한후 이에대한 열화특성으 연구하였다. 후막의 열화특서은 열과 습도에 대한 내구성 평가로써 250$\pm$5$^{\circ}C$의 solder에 의한 solder dipping test 85$^{\circ}C$~-4$0^{\circ}C$의 cycle을 200회실시하여 저항값의 변화를 관찰하는 heat cycle test 95% 상대습도 및 $65^{\circ}C$에서 500시간동안 유지시키는 humidity resistance test를 실시하 였다. 열화시험후의 전기 저항값의 변화는 페이스트에 사용된 은분의 특성에 의존함을 알수 있었다. 사용된 은분의 입도가 작아질수록 즉 비표면적이 커질수록 열화시험 이전의 저항값 도 컸을뿐 아니라 열화의 정도도 증가함을 알수 있었다.
