This paper deals with a fault diagnosis algorithm using the Kalman filter for a 75-ton Liquid Propellant Rocket Engine (LPRE). To design the Kalman filter, we linearized a non-linear simulation model of a 75-ton LPRE at an operating point, and checked the performance of the Kalman filter by comparing the measured values with estimated values of the states. Then, we artificially injected a fault of the turbopump efficiency into the simulation to confirm the performance of the fault diagnosis algorithm with the developed Kalman filter by comparing the variation of the residuals of the normal state with that of the fault cases.

A steady state performance simulation and diagnostics program for the turboprop engine (PT6A-62), which is the power plant of the first developed military basic trainer KT-1 in Republic of Korea, was developed. The developed steady state performance analysis program was evaluated with the performance data provided by the engine manufacturer and with analysis results of GASTURB program, which is well known for the performance simulation of gas turbines. Performance parameters were discussed to evaluate validity of the developed program at various cases such as altitude, flight velocity and part load variation. GPA(Gas Pass Analysis) allows engine performance deterioration to be identified at the module level in terms of reduction in component efficiencies and changes in mass flow. In order to find optimal instrument set to detect the physical faults such as fouling, erosion and corrosion, a gas path analysis approach is utilized. This study was performed in two cases for selection of optimal measurement parameters. One case was considered with the effect of instrument number by changing independent parameter number. The other case was performed with selection of independent parameter set. According to the analysis results, the optimal measurement parameters selected were eight dependent variables such as shaft horsepower, fuel flow rate, compressor exit pressure and temperature, compressor turbine inlet pressure and temperature and power turbine inlet pressure and temperature.

Purpose: It is expected that various infrastructures diagnosis equipment will be needed as infrastructures management is strengthened to implement the Framework Act on Sustainable Infrastructure Management. It is necessary for a certification system to supply certified products of a reasonable level in accordance with market requirements for various convergence equipment. This paper deals with the introduction of certification system of inspection and diagnosis equipment for infrastructure using advanced technologies. Method: The basic elements, systems and procedures of certification system were reviewed through analyzing and comparing the existing similar certification system in Korea. In addition, a survey was conducted on a catalog method and the minimum performance criterion (sampling survey and complete enumeration survey) to equipment developers (manufacturers), clients and equipment users. Result: This survey showed that clients preferred complete enumeration method on the basis of minimum performance, and equipment users also preferred complete enumeration survey and sample survey, for minimum performance, at a similar rate. On the other hand, equipment developers preferred the catalog method. Conclusion: Clients and users who are the users of the diagnostic equipment preferred the minimum performance criterion because their trust in quality is important. On the other hand, developers(manufacturers) preferred the catalog method which adopts self certification because it is regulated in developing various products. There is no specific plan for the minimum performance standards required for the introduction of the method which users demand, at present. In addition, it is not desirable to force to introduce a certification system because it requires a considerable period of study to prepare the specific standards. Therefore, it is appropriate to operate the system for a certain period of time centering around the catalog method for the stable and continuous development of the infrastructure diagnosis and test equipment market in Korea. Also, it is effective to expand and develop the certification system to the extent that it minimizes the impact on the market when specific plans for the standards are prepared in the future.

Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial infection disease caused by members of the species Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) complex. Approximately one third of the world's population is infected with TB. In Korea, approximately 40,000 new patients are identified each year. Moreover, infections from non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) have also increased. In the diagnosis of TB and NTM, traditional bacterial cultures are required for 3 to 4 weeks. Therefore, rapid and accurate diagnostic tests for TB and NTM are needed. To distinguish between TB and NTM, a range of diagnostic methods have been developed worldwide. In vitro diagnostic assays are constantly being developed to meet the increasing need for the rapid and accurate identification for TB and NTM. On the other hand, the performance evaluations of in vitro diagnostic reagents for TB and NTM are lacking. Recently, the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) issued a guideline for in vitro diagnostic reagents for MTB and NTM. Here, this study analyzed the performance of currently developed in vitro diagnostic reagents for TB and NTM in the US FDA. This analysis of US FDA approved molecular assays could serve as a useful reference for an evaluation of the reagent performance of TB and NTM.

본 논문에서는 유도전동기 고장진단을 위하여 계층적인 하이브리드 뉴럴네트웍을 제안하였다. 시스템의 입출력 데이터에 근거하여 패턴을 분류하고자 할 때 직접적인 분류가 어렵거나 성능이 좋지 않을 경우 적절한 방법을 통하여 변환을 하거나 또는 패턴 분류기의 특성에 맞도록 변환하여 패턴 분류 성능을 향상하는 등 단계별 변환 및 분류 기법을 이용하였다. 제안된 방법에서는 실험에 의해 측정된 전류값을 주기별로 주성분분석(PCA) 기법을 이용하여 입력차원을 축소한 후 이를 조건부 FCM으로 방사기저함수의 초기치를 최적화하여 학습을 하였다. 이는 주성분분석이 가지는 특성을 이용하여 데이터의 특징을 나누었으며 이를 뉴럴네트웍의 학습 기능을 이용하여 모델의 최종 성능을 개선하는 것이다. 각각의 알고리즘이 가지는 특징을 활용하면서도 단점을 계층적으로 보안하여 유도 전동기 고장 진단 성능을 개선하였다. 이를 실제 계측된 유도전동기 데이터를 이용하여 제안된 방법의 유용성을 보이고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to measure the tube voltage, the tube current/volume, exposure time and exposure dose of diagnostic X-ray unit in each doctor offices, hospitals and general hospitals for evaluating the performance of such device, to learn the method and technology of its measurement and to suggest its importance. Research subjects were total 30 X-ray units and divided into groups of 10 X-ray units each. The tube voltage, the tube current/volume, exposure time and exposure dose were measured using percentage average error, and then reproducibility of exposure dose was measured through calculating coefficient of variation. The results are like followings; The tube voltage correctness examination showed that incongruent devices among total 30 X-ray units were 5 devices (16.7%). The tube current correctness examination showed that incongruent X-ray units were 3 devices (10.0%). The tube current volume correctness examination showed that incongruent X-ray units were 4 devices (13.3%). Finally, according to exposure time correctness examination, incongruent X-ray units were 5 devices (16.7%) and according to reproducibility examination of exposure dose, incongruent X-ray units were 7 devices (23.3%). Above results showed serious problem in performance management based on management regulation of diagnostic X-ray unit; it means that regular checkout and safety management are required, and as doing so, patients will be able to receive good quality of medical service by the reduction of radiation exposure time, image quality administration, unnecessary retake and etc. Therefore, this study suggests that the performance of diagnostic X-ray units should be checked regularly.

현재까지 개발된 대부분의 규칙기반 의료 진단시스템에서는 의사들이 환자들을 진단하는데 필요한 지식을 정형화된 규칙만으로 표현해야 하기 때문에 어려움이 있으며, 시스템의 성능개선을 위해 규칙들의 수정 및 추가가 이루어져야 할 뿐 아니라, 예외적인 상황에서 진단시 문제점율 지니게 된다 본 논문에서는 일반적인 급성복통 진단을 위한 지식은 규칙으로 표현하고, 기존 규칙으로 처리할 수 없는 예외적인 급성복통 진단을 위한 지식은 사례로 표현함으로써 규칙과 사례가 서로 보완적인 역할을 할 수 있는 통합 방법을 제안한다. 또한 기존의 규칙 기반 DS-DAAP와 사레기반 추론에 의해 확장된 CDS-DAAP(Combined Diagnosis System for Diseases associated with Acute Abdominal Pain)의 비교를 통해, 제안하는 접근 방법이 진단율을 향상시킴을 보였다.
