The thermal design of the Lunar Terrain Imager (LUTI) on the Korean Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO) was performed and the soundness of the thermal design was verified by thermal analysis. The thermal environment of the lunar mission orbit should be reflected in the thermal design because the IR radiation of the lunar surface is important, unlike the earth orbit. The components or modules exposed to the outside of the satellite are insulated with MLI as much as possible, but the camera tube and the radiator are functionally exposed, so the thermal shield using the concept of radiation shape factor is mounted on the front to mitigate IR radiation. The IR emissivity is important in the front side of the radiator that receives little solar radiation, and components that are susceptible to thermal deformation such as the tube use a radiation heater to minimize the temperature gradient. Through the investigation of computational results, it was confirmed that the thermal design of LUTI is stable in various situations.

In this study, it is describe to an optimization analysis process for the weight reduction of the voltage converter in the electric vehicle charging systems. The optimization design is a technique that finds the optimal material distribution under a given material quantity constraint by combining the design sensitivity with the material properties and the mathematical optimization. Among the topology optimization, a lightweight design is performed by a solid isotropic material with penalization with simple formula and well-convergence. The lightweight design consists of three steps. As a first step, a finite element model for the basic design of the on-board voltage converter was constructed and static analysis was performed on the load. In the second step, the optimum shape is obtained for the lightweight by performing the topology optimization using the solid isotropic material with penalization applying the stiffness coefficient of the isotropic material to the static analysis result. As a final step, impact analysis was performed by applying a half-sinusoidal pulse shape impact load which satisfies the impact test standard of the vehicle-mounted part with respect to the optimum shape. In the topology optimization, the design domain was defined as the mounting bracket area, and the design technology was finally achieved by optimizing the mounting bracket to achieve a weight reduction of 20% over the basic design.

In this study, laboratory experiments and numerical simulations were conducted to test the performance of resonance power buoy system proposed by Kweon et al.(2010). The system is composed of a linear generator and a mooring buoy. The mover of the linear generator mainly has heave motion driven by vertical oscillation of the buoy. In this system, the velocity discrepancy between the mover and the buoy makes electricity. However, ocean wave energy as a natural resource around Korean peninsula is comparatively small and the driving force for producing electricity is not enough for commercialization. Therefore, it is necessary that the buoy motion be amplified by using resonance characteristics. In order to verify the resonance effects on the test power buoy, the experimental investigations were conducted in the large wave flume (length of 110 m, width of 8 m, maximum depth of 6 m) equipped with regular and random plunger wave generator. The resonance draft of test power buoy is designed for the corresponding period of incident wave, 1.96 sec. Regular wave test results show that the heave response amplitude operator(RAO) by a test buoy has the amplification of 5.66 times higher compared to the wave amplitude at the resonance period. Test results of random waves show that the buoy has the largest spectrum area of 20.73 times higher at the point of not the resonance period but the shorter one of 1.85 sec. Therefore this study suggests the resonance power buoy for wave power generation for commercial application in the case of the coastal and oceanic area with smaller wave energy.

In this study, an automated cable non-destructive testing(NDT) system was developed to monitor the steel cables that are a core component of cable-stayed bridges. The magnetic flux leakage(MFL) method, which is suitable for ferromagnetic continuum structures and has been verified in previous studies, was applied to the cable inspection. A multi-channel MFL sensor head was fabricated using hall sensors and permanent magnets. A wheel-based cable climbing robot was fabricated to improve the accessibility to the cables, and operating software was developed to monitor the MFL-based NDT research and control the climbing robot. Remote data transmission and robot control were realized by applying wireless LAN communication. Finally, the developed element techniques were integrated into an MFL-based cable NDT system, and the field applicability of this system was verified through a field test at Seohae Bridge, which is a typical cable-stayed bridge currently in operation.

In this paper, we present an automatic image object tracking system for Studio cameras on the stage. For object tracking, we use the OpenCV-based Python program using PC, Raspberry Pi 3 and mobile devices. There are many methods of image object tracking such as mean-shift, CAMshift (Continuously Adaptive Mean shift), background modelling using GMM(Gaussian mixture model), template based detection using SURF(Speeded up robust features), CMT(Consensus-based Matching and Tracking) and TLD methods. CAMshift algorithm is very efficient for real-time tracking because of its fast and robust performance. However, in this paper, we implement an image object tracking system for studio cameras based CMT algorithm. This is an optimal image tracking method because of combination of static and adaptive correspondences. The proposed system can be applied to an effective and robust image tracking system for continuous object tracking on the stage in real time.

기후변화 가속화와 국민의 높아진 서비스 요구 수준에 따라 농업용수의 관리방식을 현장인력의 경험적 물관리 방식에서 계측정보 기반의 과락적 물관리 방식으로 전환의 필요성이 대두되어, 2001년부터 농업기반시설 내 무인계측, 원격제어 기능이 탑재된 물관리자동화 시스템을 보급하는 농업용수관리자동화사업을 시행하였다. 농업용수관리자동화사업은 사업시행 초기 연구 결과, 농업기반시설 무인계측 및 원격제어 시스템 보급으로 인력에 의한 관행적 물관리 대비 수리시설의 관리 효율성이 크게 향상되어 유지관리 인력의 절감 및 용수수급의 적정성이 개선될 것으로 분석되었다. 하지만 영농환경의 변화에 따라, 당초 분석결과와 달리 자동화사업 추진과 한국농어촌공사의 유지관리 인력 규모 간 뚜렷한 상관성이 보이지 않는다는 정책기관의 지적이 발생하고 있다. 현재 4차산업기술이 산업 전 분야에 걸쳐 일어나고 있으며 농업분야에도 ICT, LOT, 빅데이터 기술이 도입되어 새로운 가치를 창출하고 있다. 농업용수관리 분야에 있어서는 데이터를 활요한 수요자 중심의 지능형 물관리 사업이 추진되고 있으며, 일정규모 이상 저수지 및 양수장 농업용수 공급량 측정 계측기의 설치가 추진중에 있다. 그러나 현재까지 이러한 설치된 계측장치들의 활용방안에 대해서는 뚜렷한 결과가 도축된 바 없으며, 현재 많은 예산과 인력이 투입되어 설치·운영되고 있는 계측장치들의 활용 방안에 대해서 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 2018년 2,228개 농업기반시설물에 자동화시스템을 설치 완료 하였으나, 각종 장비의 비표준화, 효과대비 고비용, 잦은 통신두절 등의 기술적 문제로 인해 현업부서의 수자원관리 업무에서 자동화시스템의 활용성이 저조한 것으로 관측됐다. 본연구에서는 국내 수자원 계측제어 기술 동향 및 운영환경 조사 결과를 기초로, 기술적 측면의 농업용수관리자동화사업의 개선사항과 4차 산업기술의 농업용수관리자동화사업의 적용방안을 제시 하여 농업용수관리자동화사업 중장기 계획 개정등 향후 정챡수립시 참고 자료로의 활용과 농업용수 효율적 활용과 관리를 위한 TM/TC 미래추진 방안을 제시로 정확하고 신뢰도 높은 농업용수 관리 체계를 구축 하고자 한다.
