FBG sensors are capable of measuring the strain of structures easily and more durably than electric resistance gauges. Thus, many researches are dedicated to the application for the response monitoring or non-destructive evaluation of structures using FBG sensors. Additionally, the measured strains at the top and bottom of a cross-section can be transformed into the curvature of the section, which can be used to calculate its vertical displacement. Hence, this study aims to measure the dynamic strain signals of a steel section simply supported beam and to estimate the dynamic displacement from the strain signals, after which the estimated displacement is com pared with the measured displacement. The dynamic characteristics (natural frequency, damping ratio and mode shape) of the beam are predicted from both the estimated and measured displacement signals, and from the strain time history of the FBG sensors. The predicted properties are compared with those of an analytical model of the beam. The estimated displacement. However, the predicted dynamic properties from both the estimated displacements and the measured strains are well-correlated with those from the measured displacement. It is therefore appreciated that the estimation of the dynamic properties of FBG sensor signals is reasonable. Especially, the strain signal of the FBG sensor was amplified at a higher-frequency region in comparison with the displacement estimation with higher-mode properties.

A fiber optic sensor is prospective to be applied to structural health monitoring. Especially, a fiber Bragg grating(FBG) sensor is one of the most popular sensors for the structural health monitoring. The FBG sensor has several demodulation systems for tracking the shift of the Bragg wavelength. The dynamic bandwidth is dependent on the demodulation system. In this paper, the sensing mechanism is that the slope of the optical spectrum of FBG could be used as its sensitivity when the tunable laser shot the monochromatic laser wavelength at the highest slope point. In this technique, the high sensitivity is guaranteed even though the sensing range is limited. In an example of the application, the composite plate embedding a FBG sensor was manufactured by using an autoclave method and the above sensing mechanism was applied to the composite plate. Firstly, the natural frequencies of the plate were successfully measured by the FBG sensor during the impact hammer test. Secondly, a high-power speaker was used to force the plate to be vibrated at the specific frequency that was one of the natural frequencies. During the shaking, the FBG sensor measures the dynamic characteristics and ESPI was also used to measure the mode shape. From the two dynamic tests, the availability of the FBG sensor system and the ESPI was proven as a technique for measuring the dynamic characteristics of composite structure.

Despite recent studies on development of pulse diagnosis systems and needs for commercializing them, the reproducibility is one of the most controversial issues as ever. Because the pulse pressure value, which is one of the important parameters to evaluate reproducibility, is very vulnerable to moving artifacts, the reproducibility can not be obtained easily. In this paper, we suggested a moving artefacts detection system for a pulse diagnosis system so that a pulse diagnosis system can be robust to theses kinds of artefacts by excluding the contaminated parts from the pulse wave signal to be analyzed. This moving artifacts detection system was designed to consist of a three-axis accelerometer, an electromyography amplifier and a two-axis tilt sensor. To assess the suitability of the system, we examined the characteristics of each sensor's output signals with regard to the three specific motions such as extension, flexion and rotation. And, we also examined the each sensor's response to the high-frequency and low-frequency moving artifacts while the pulse wave signal was acquired from a pressure sensor for the pulse diagnosis. From these results, we could find that the response to subject's motions would be reflected in electromyography signal first, in accelerometer signals and in tilt sensor sequently. And, the facts that a stable pulse wave can be acquired in two seconds after high frequency or low frequency motions ended, were also found. Consequently, based on these findings, we set up some rules on the moving artifacts detection and designed an algorithm which is fit for our moving artifacts detection system.

Recently, structure safety management techniques using cutting-edge technology(Displacement senor, sensor of acceleration) has emerged as an important issue owing to the aging of infrastructure such as bridge and building. In general, the structural monitoring system for structure safety management is based on IT technology and it is expensive to install. In this paper developed an image-based structure dynamic characteristic analysis system prototype to assess the damage of structure in a more cost-effective way than traditional structure health monitoring system. The inspector can take a video of buildings or other structures with digital camera or any other devices that is passible to take video, and then using NCC calculation for image processing technique to get natural frequency. This system is analysis of damage of the structure using a compare between the frequency response ratio and functions when problems are occurs send alarm to administrator. This system is easier to install and remove than previous monitoring sensor in economical way.

In this paper, a smart wireless MEMS-based accelerometer(MA) system has been designed and experimented for smart monitoring system of civil structures. Various performance and experimental tests have been carried out to evaluate whether this system is suitable for monitoring system of civil structures. First, we examined its sensitivity, resolution, and noise, specifically to evaluate the performance of the smart wireless MA system. The results of experiments enabled us to estimate performance of the MA in SWMAS in comparison to the value of data sheet from MA. Second, characteristics of model structure were analyzed by the ambient vibration test based on the NExT combined with ERA. Finally, this analysis was compared to the one that was made by FE results, and the comparison proved that a smart wireless MA system was fitted in smart monitoring system effectively.

We precisely measured and analyzed the dynamics of peptide-antibody interactions, using an ellipsometric biosensor based on a silicon substrate. To reduce the signal error due to the imperfect flatness of the substrate for extremely low concentrations of peptide, we fabricated the biosensor with a silicon substrate coated with Dextran SAM, instead of a glass prism coated with a thin metallic thin film. At an injection speed of $100{\mu}l/min$ of buffer liquid, we detected the dynamics of antibody-Dextran SAM or peptide-antibody fixed on biosensor, respectively. We detected the dynamics of antibody-Dextran SAM interactions down to a low concentration of 5 ng per liter, and we precisely measured the dynamics of association and dissociation of peptide and antibody down to 100 nM of peptide. We obtained the rate constants for association and dissociation from fitting the data by using deduced dynamical equation. As a result, we obtained an equilibrium constant for dissociation of 97 nM of peptide-antibody complex, which belongs to Class I.

구조 건전성 모니터링에 사용되는 기존 센서들의 문제점을 극복하고 높은 분해능과 동특성 모니터링에 대한 이점을 지닌 FBG센서는 구조물 모니터링에 있어 큰 이점을 지니고 있다. FBG 센서는 점 센서라는 한계 때문에 구조물의 전체적인 변형률 및 응력 평가에 어려움이 있을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 FBG 센서로부터 계측한 변형률 값들로부터 임의의 하중조건에서 철골 보의 변형률 분포를 추정하는 기법을 제시하였다. 임의의 개별 하중조건에 대해 FBG 센서로 계측된 값을 통해 센서의 부착 위치와 최소 필요 개수를 결정하고 변형률 추정식을 유도함으로써 FBG 센서의 계측 기법에 대한 기준을 세웠다. 나아가 임의의 조합 하중이 작용하는 실제의 경우를 고려하여 철골 보의 변형률 분포를 추정하는 보다 일반화된 수학적 모델을 제시하였다. 그리고 예제를 통하여 본 연구에서 제시한 변형률 분포 추정 모델을 검증하였다.
