Structral crack of RC structure generally occurs when the tension stress by applied load is larger than tension resistance of concrete, and it means deterioration of structure and the decrease of load resistance. Because structural crack of structure can occur critical damage to structure occasionally, the research on crack detection algorithm of RC structure is needed for assurance of structural safety and effective maintenance of structure. In this paper, we executed the laboratory test on measuring strain of RC beam's tension and compression zone, using strain gauge which is widely used on strain measurement of civil structure. By using measured strain, we analyzed strain change, elastic modulus change, and neutral axis change to detect crack of RC beam. As a result, we proposed the simple and effective crack detection algorithm using trends of neutral axis position change.

Estimating algorithm of physical activity energy expenditure and physical activity intensity was implemented by using a tri-axial accelerometer motion detector of the SVM(Signal Vector Magnitude) of 3-axis(x, y, z). A total of 10 participants(5 males and 5 females aged between 20 and 30 years). The ActiGraph(LLC, USA) and Fitmeter(Fit.life, korea) was positioned anterior superior iliac spine on the body. The activity protocol consisted of three types on treadmill; participants performed three treadmill activity at three speeds(3, 5, 8 km/h). Each activity was performed for 7 minutes with 4 minutes rest between each activity for the steady state. These activities were repeated four weeks. Algorithm for METs, kcal and intensity of activities were implemented with ActiGraph and Fitmeter correlation between the data.

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) functions as a metabolic master through regulating and restoring cellular energy balance. In skeletal muscle, AMPK increases myofibril protein degradation through the expression of muscle-specific ubiquitin ligases. Mori Folium, the leaf of Morus alba, is a traditional medicinal herb with various pharmacological functions; however, the effects associated with muscle atrophy have not been fully identified. In this study, we confirmed the effects of AMPK activation by examining the effects of 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR), an activator of AMPK, on the induction of atrophy and expression of atrophy-related genes in C2C12 myotubes. We also investigated the effects of the ethanol extract of Mori Folium (EEMF) on the recovery of AICAR-induced muscle atrophy in C2C12 myotubes. It was found that exposure to AICAR resulted in the stimulation of Forkhead box O3a (FOXO3a); an up-regulation of muscle-specific ubiquitin ligases such as Muscle Atrophy F-box (MAFbx)/atrogin-1 and muscle RING finger-1 (MuRF1), and a down-regulation of muscle-specific transcription factors, such as MyoD and myogenin; with the activation of AMPK. In addition, AICAR without cytotoxicity indicated a decrease in diameter of C2C12 myotubes. However, treatment with EEMF significantly suppressed AICAR-induced muscle atrophy of C2C12 myotubes in a dose-dependent manner as confirmed by a decrease in myotube diameter, which is associated with a reversed stimulation of FOXO3a by the inhibition of AMPK activation. These results indicate that the activation of AMPK by AICAR induces muscle atrophy, and EEMF has preeminent effects on the inhibition of AICAR-induced muscle atrophy through the AMPK signaling pathway.

본 연구는 박각시 나방 유연날개의 준정상 공력 모델링을 위한 공력측정실험을 진행하였다. 두 개의 서보모터로 이루어진 동역학적 로봇 모델은 3톤 수조 내부에서 날갯짓 운동을 구현하였고, 6축 센서가 날개 모델의 뿌리에 장착되어 공력 측정을 시행하였다. 날개 모델은 다른 두께의 폴리카보네이트 평판으로 제작되었고, 3mm 두께의 강체날개와 0.8mm 두께의 유연날개로 구성되었다. 공력측정은 각 날개 모델별 받음각을 -5도에서 95도까지 5도씩 변경하여 진행하였고, 이를 바탕으로 준정상 공력 모델링을 시도하였다. 날개 두께별 준정상 공력 모델링을 통해 특정 두께를 가진 유연날개는 강체날개보다 높은 공력효율을 가짐을 알 수 있었고, 날개 유연도 역시 준정상 가정을 기반으로 모델링 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

다목적실용위성 1호의 자세제어는 추력기를 이용한 방법과 반작용 휠을 이용한 방법으로 나눌 수 있다. 추력기를 이용한 방법은 위성이 안전모드에 진입하거나 궤도조정시 이용되며, 정상 운영모드에서 촬영임무를 수행할 때는 반작용 휠을 이용하여 위성의 자세를 제어하고 있다. 자세제어는 제로 모멘텀 바이어스(Zero Momentum Bias)를 이용하여 3축 제어방식을 사용하고 있다. 지구센서(CES, Conical Earth Sensor)와 자이로(Gyro)를 통하여 얻은 자세정보를 이용하여 위성의 탑재컴퓨터에서 제어로직을 수행하면 MDE(Motor Drive Electronic)를 통해 모멘텀을 입력받아 반작용 휠의 회전속도를 변화 시켜 자세제어를 수행한다. 본 논문은 위성의 임무기간 동안 반작용 휠을 이용하여 자세제어를 수행한 결과를 바탕으로 위성의 제로 모멘텀 바이어스를 통한 자세제어계의 변화를 분석하여 향후 연장 임무기간 동안 발생할 수 있는 운영상의 문제점을 확인하고, 이에 대한 조치 방법과 자세제어계의 운영 방안을 제시하고 한다.

This paper proposes a single-joint optical torque sensor with one body structure. Conventional optical torque sensors consist of three parts, two plates and an elastic structure. They have slightly slipping problem between plates and elastic structure due to the manufacturing tolerance. Since the order of measurement range of optical sensor is about ten micrometers, the slipping problem causes large measurement error, especially in the case of vibrational or high speed plant. This problem does not occur in the proposed design due to the one body structure. The proposed sensor has advantage of low cost, light weight, and small size. And it is easy to design and manufacture. Simulation works that analysis of stress and strain are performed accurately. To demonstrate the performance of proposed sensor, experiments were implemented to compare with a commercial force/torque sensor (ATI Mini45).

The WBAN technology means a short distance wireless network which provides each device interactive communication by connecting devices inside and outside of body. Standardization on the physical layer, data link layer, network layer and application layer is in progress by IEEE 802.15.6 TG BAN. Wireless body area network is usually configured in energy efficient using sensor and zigbee device due to the power limitation and the characteristics of human body. Wireless sensor network consist of sensor field and sink node. Sensor field are composed a lot of sensor node and sink node collect sensing data. Wireless sensor network has capacity of the self constitution by protocol where placed in large area without fixed position. In this paper, we proposed the efficient addressing scheme for improving the performance of routing algorithm by using ZigBee in WBAN environment. A distributed address allocation scheme used an existing algorithm that has wasted in address space. Therefore proposing x, y and z coordinate axes from divided address space of 16 bit to solve this problems. Each node was reduced not only bitwise but also multi hop using the coordinate axes while routing than Cskip algorithm. I compared the performance between the standard and the proposed mechanism through the numerical analysis. Simulation verified performance about decrease averaging multi hop count that compare proposing algorithm and another. The numerical analysis results show that proposed algorithm reduced the multi hop better than ZigBee distributed address assignment
