우리나라의 경우 각종 장해와 주년 수요의 증가에 따른 불시재배의 증가로 인하여 저온신장성, 병해저항성 등과 같이 작물의 내성증진을 목적으로 접목묘의 이용이 급속도로 신장되고 있다. 특시 연작장해가 심한 박과형 채소류는 대부분 접목재배가 필요한 실정이다. 그러나 국내의 경우, 접목작업은 거의 수작업으로 행해지며 세밀한 조작과 숙련성 그리고 많은 노력을 필요로 한다. 따라서, 접목 생산성을 높일 수 있는 저가의 자동화 시스템 개발이 요구된다. 다양한 접목법들 중 현재 농가에서 가장 광범위하게 이용되고 있는 호접은 삽접 및 절단접에 비하여 자동화가 어렵고 활착 후 절단작업이 부가적으로 필요하나 접목 후 순화공정이 간단하고 활착률이 높다. 본 논문에서는 호접과 삽접에 대하여 접목 후의 활착률 및 접목에 소요되는 작업시간을 비교하였고, 호접법에 의거하여 작업공정을 생력화한 육묘 자동접목 시작기를 개발하였다. 시작기는 농가조합 및 중규모 육묘장의 설비를 지향하여, 묘판 및 접목묘의 취급을 제외하고 1인 접목작업 형태의 자동화 시스템으로 개발하였다. 시작기는 크게 버퍼기능을 부착한 배치형 육묘장치부, 2세트에 공압 매니퓰레이터, 대목과 접수의 원할한 접목을 위해 설계한 특수 그리퍼, 각고 조절형 절단부, 진동형 클립공급부 그리고 자동 클립 장착장치로 구성하였다. 접목 작업시간은 대략 4ch 정도이나 작업시간의 조정이 가능하도록 하였다. 실험실에서 수행한 간이접목 시험 결과, 절단날이 대목과 접수의 접촉부위를 관통할 때 접촉면이 서로 어긋나는 경우가 발생하였으나 육묘들이 호접에 적정한 기하학적 물성 요건을 갖춘다면 80% 이상의 접목 육묘의 기하학적 물성에 따른 체계적인 접목시험이 필요하다.

A multipurpose TLD readout system for radiation dosimetry and thermoluminescence study is constructed and its characteristics are investigated. The thermoluminescent lights are measured by a PM tube and the current-to-frequency converter. TLDs are heated by platinum heater and the heating rate is linearly varied. Measurement of the glow curve and control of the whole system have been done by a personal computer equipped with an interface board. The automatic gain control can be done by the control software. The lower detection limit of the system is about $10\;{\mu}Gy$ and dose response is linear.

The automated fish feed system currently used in Korea supplies a certain amounts of feed to water tanks at a certain time. This automated system can reduce the labor cost of managing aqua farms, but it is very difficult to control intelligently and appropriately the amount of expensive feed that is critical to aqua farm productivity. In this paper, we propose the FIIFF Inference Model( Fuzzy Inference-based Intelligent Fish Feeding Model) that can solves the problems of these existing automatic fish feeding devices and maximizes the efficiency of feed supply while properly maintaining the growth rate of fish in aqua farms. The proposed FIIFF inference model has the advantage of being able to control feed amounts appropriately since it computes the amount of feed using the current water environments and fish activity state of the aqua farms. The result of the feed amount yield experiment with the proposed FIIFF Inference Model represents the effect of saving 14.8% over the eight months of actual feed amount in the aqua farm.

When the eigenvalues of the input covariance matrix of an array system spread by orders of magnitude, conventional adaptive arrays can't remove all the interference signals effectively In this paper, an Applebaum array adopting an adaptive gain controller (AGC) in the feedback loop of the array is proposed When eigenvalue spreaded interferences are incident to an array, a high power interference is removed easily in several iterations while a relative low power interference which is a cause of eigenvalue spread is still remained In the array output After some initial iterations, the proposed array increases the correlation between the low power interference and the array output by amplifying the output signal of the array As a result, the weights vector adapts to the direction of the low power interference as well as that of the high power interference Computer simulation results show that the proposed array gives high output signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) and a fast convergence speed.

This paper presents a new method on how to calculate the thrust forces acting on an auto-leveling device in headlamps for passenger vehicles. The leveling device is used to lower the angle of lights when a load in the trunk of the vehicle lifts it. In the process of the headlamp design, it is imperative to predict the external forces so that the designers can decide whether to proceed or not. The device is composed of three pivot joints with no reaction moment, a plate that holds the lamp, and a leveling motor that changes rotation to linear motion. In this study, force balance, moment balance, and geometric compatibility are applied to the leveling device system so that a nonlinear system of equations can be derived; the multi-dimensional Newton-Raphson algorithm is then used to solve these. A sensitivity analysis is carried out to verify which design variables affect the system the most: the mass of the lamp and the height between the pivot and leveling device affect the thrust forces the most. Then, considering the friction forces between the moving parts, the hysteresis of the forces are derived. An experimental apparatus, designed and developed in this study, is used to verify the exactness of the derived equations. The results from experiments coincide well with the calculated results. The friction hysteresis, in particular, proves this upon analysis.

Seeing is an intelligent act. Retina is the most important part among the components of eye which is comprised of iris, pupil, lens, optic disk, and so forth. Because retina acts like a photo receiver to detect light from every object, if damaged, animals have a severe problem to live along with themselves and sometimes they lose their sight. In the ophthalmology, doctors use special instrument to see exact retina image of object and operate the surgery by rotating focus control knob. In this study, a basic test is done to achieve the auto focus control instrument. Specially made sledge and attenuator are installed on the optic bed to change the distance and laser power between the first reflective mirror and the second one. Control panel which is compiled by Visual C t t to control stepping motors ,laser power and photodiode are implemented with ADA-board.

A new, automated apparatus is proposed for calculating the Soil-Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC), representing a simple and easily applied testing device for continuous measurements of the volumetric water content and suction of unsaturated soils. The use of this apparatus helps to avoid the errors that arise when performing experiments. Consequently, the apparatus provides greater accuracy in calculating the SWCC of unsaturated soils. The apparatus is composed of a pressure panel, flow cell, water reservoir, air bubble trap, balance, sample-preparation accessories, and measurement system, among other components. The air pressure can attain 300 kPa, and a general test can be completed in a short time. The apparatus can simply control the drying process and wetting process. The changes in volumetric water content that occur during the drying and wetting processes are shown directly in the SWRC program, in real time. As a case study, we performed an SWCC test of Joomunjin sand (75% relative density) to measure matric suction and volumetric water content during both the drying and wetting processes. The test revealed hysteresis behavior, whereby the water content on the wetting curve is always lower than that on the drying curve for a specific matric suction, during the wetting and drying processes. Based on the test results, SWCCs were estimated using the Brooks and Corey, van Genuchten, and Fredlund and Xing models. The van Genuchten model performed best for the given soil conditions, as it yielded the highest coefficient of determination.
