Dynamic analysis of a marine slender structure is often involved with contacts among bodies or between bodies and seafloor. This paper presents an efficient and general contact search algorithm for dynamics in the context of the compliance contact model. A global detecting method that a bounding box is divided into several pieces in global coordinate system is presented in this paper. The method has an advantage that the number of contacting searching can be smaller than other methods for a system. The developed an efficient contact search algorithm is applied to the simulation program of 3D nonlinear dynamics of slender structure. Some examples are presented to show the validity of the proposed method.

This paper presents an improvement method for human body sensing module and management system, specifically focused on the human body detection module with ultrasonic sensors to detect the usage of toilets and the management system to control the state of the toilets of the entire building. The proposed human body sensing module consists of the detection sensor to detect the movement of human body and the contact sensor to detect the position in a certain distance. The management system is configured of the control unit to process the signal transmitted from sensors, opening and closing valves according to the sensing signal, and the short range wireless communication unit to save the operational status data as well as transmit the data at regular intervals.

Of the possible interactions between human and robot, touch is an important means of providing human beings with emotional relief. However, most previous studies have focused on interactions based on voice and images. In this paper. a method of recognizing human touching behaviors is proposed for developing a robot that can naturally interact with humans through touch. In this method, the recognition process is divided into pre-process and recognition Phases. In the Pre-Process Phase, recognizable characteristics are calculated from the data generated by the touch detector which was fabricated using force sensors. The force sensor used an FSR (force sensing register). The recognition phase classifies human touching behaviors using a multi-layer perceptron which is a neural network model. Experimental data was generated by six men employing three types of human touching behaviors including 'hitting', 'stroking' and 'tickling'. As the experimental result of a recognizer being generated for each user and being evaluated as cross-validation, the average recognition rate was 82.9% while the result of a single recognizer for all users showed a 74.5% average recognition rate.

In this study, damage characteristics of MCCB and terminal block due to poor contact were analyzed, and various poor contact detection techniques were suggested. Firstly, the detection techniques using thermocouple and infrared thermal camera were analyzed respectively. Also, thermo-cap during poor contact detected abnormal status effectively by changing its color, and the detection system using an odor detector and odor capsules was analyzed. Lastly, poor contact detection screw was made using characteristics of fusible alloy, and we applied the poor contact detection screw to terminal block. The above methods could prevent electrical fire caused by poor contact effectively if they are used properly.

In general, distribution board, panel board and motor control center can be installed over a wide area such as residence of group, building, schools, factories, ports, airports, water service and sewerage, substation and heavy industries that are used to supply converts the voltages extra high voltage into optimal voltage. There are electrical accidents due to rise of contact temperature, loose contact between busbar, deterioration of the contact resistance, over temperature of the busbars. In this paper, we designed and implemented the busbar joint and temperature measurement system, which can measure the joint resistance of busbar and loose connection between busbar using potentiometer and non-contact infrared sensor. The experimental results show that tightening the bolt and nut is fully engaged, resistance was decreased and maximum error range was 0.1mm. Also, the experimental result showed that the temperature at the contact area is increased from $27.3^{\circ}C$ to $69.3^{\circ}C$by the contact resistance.

This paper implements a door lock using PIR sensor based on Arduino. When the PIR sensor detects movement, the door lock device is activated and RFID tags can be used. This door rock can prevent lonely death by detecting whether the resident is in or out, and it also has hygienic advantage because it unlocks without contact by using RFID. In addition, as door locks are frequently used in everyday life, the above-mentioned implementation can also increase participation in hands-on lectures.

Rockfall monitoring systems generally used in the country are mainly based on the detection of tension of protection wire or tilting of protection post due to rock fall. However, rock fall protection net must be installed prior to the monitoring system and continual maintenance work after each rock fall event is required for a normal operation of these detection systems. To solve these problems, we suggested and implemented a non-contact rock fall detection system using multiple photo sensors and additional camera. After a laboratory experiment and field application, we can conclude that this system is effective and reliable for detecting, collecting and analyzing the rock fall information. In addition, lighten and difference operations on two captured images were able to yield rough estimation of size and direction of rock fall.

An addressable conducting network (ACN) makes it possible to monitor the condition of a structure using the electrical resistance between electrodes on the surface of a carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) structure. To improve the damage detection reliability of the ACN, the contact resistances between the electrodes and CFRP laminates needs to be minimized. In this study, silver nanoparticle electrodes were fabricated via printed electronics techniques on a CFRP composite. The contact resistance between the silver electrodes and CFRP were measured with respect to various fabrication conditions such as the sintering temperature of the silver nano-ink and the surface roughness of the CFRP laminates. The interfaces between the silver electrode and carbon fibers were observed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Based on this study, it was found that the lowest contact resistance of $0.3664{\Omega}$ could be achieved when the sintering temperature of the silver nano-ink and surface roughness were $120^{\circ}C$ and 0.230 a, respectively.
