There is a growing interest in engine diagnostic technology for gas turbine engines. An engine simulation program, precisely simulating the engine performance, is required in order to apply it to the engine diagnosis technology for engine health monitoring. In particular, the simulation program can predict not only design point performance but also off-design point and partial load performance in accurate. So the engine simulation program for the 2-spool separate flow type turbofan engine was developed and the JT9D-7R4G engine of PW(Pratt & Whitney) was analyzed. The steady-sate performance analysis is conducted at both design and off-design points in flight path and the differences between analysis results of takeoff and cruise conditions are compared. The effect of Reynold's correction method was analyzed as a scaling method of the engine component performance. The simulation results was compared with NPSS.

The large number of long-span bridges constructed in China motivates the applications of structural health monitoring (SHM) technology. Many bridges have been equipped with sophisticated SHM systems in the mainland of China and in Hong Kong of China. Recently, SHM technology has been extended to field test systems. In this view, SHM can serve as a tool to develop the methods of life-cycle performance design, evaluation, maintenance and management of bridges; to develop new structural analysis methods through validation and feedback from SHM results; and to understand the behavior of bridges under natural and man-made disasters, rapidly assess the damage and loss of structures over large regions after disasters, e.g., earthquake, typhoon, flood, etc. It is hoped that combining analytical methods, numerical simulation, small-scale tests and accelerated durability tests with SHM could become the main engine driving the development of bridge engineering. This paper demonstrates the above viewpoint.

The personal health record platform can store and manage medical records, health-monitoring data such as blood pressure and blood sugar, and life logs generated from various wearable devices. It provides services such as international standard-based medical document management, data pattern analysis and an intelligent inference engine, and disease prediction and domain contents. This study aims to construct a foundation for the transmission of international standard-based medical documents by mapping the diagnosis items of a general health examination, special health examination, life logs, health data, and life habits with the international standard terminology systems. The results of mapping with international standard terminology systems show a high mapping rate of 95.6%, with 78.8% for LOINC, 10.3% for SNOMED, and 6.5% when mapped with both LOINC and SNOMED.

This paper examines a survey on recent research regarding health monitoring and management for liquid rocket engines (LRE). For this, we investigated precedent techniques applied to LRE development. Particularly, we focused on open-cycle LRE to apply to KSLV-II (Korea Space Launch Vehicle II). Through this study, we subdivided health monitoring algorithms and analyzed fault detection and diagnosis algorithm developed in China, since China researched open-cycle LRE that have the same cycle as KSLV-II rocket engines. We discuss significant points to be considered regarding development of the KSLV-II.

The steady-state performance analysis program for turboprop engine which was used for a small, middle industrial aircraft and a basic trainer aircraft was developed and linear Gas Path Analysis method was applied to Engine Health Monitoring for Turboprop engine. This program was compared with TURBOMARCH program which is well known with performance and power according to flight Mach No. at the standard atmospheric condition to prove a steady-state performance analysis program. From the result, inlet, exit temperature and pressure of each component had error within 3% and especially power according to flight Mach No. had error within 2.4% so that this program could be assured. To make sure if linear Gas Path Analysis is reasonable four cases were selected. The first is the case that fouling is occurred in compressor only. The second is the case that fouling is occurred in compressor and erosion is occurred in turbine. The third is the case that erosion is occurred in both compressor and turbine and power turbine at the same time. Finally, the case that fouling and erosion are occurred in compressor, compressor turbine and power turbine was selected. Different parameters were selected impartially among the independent parameters so that the effect of measurement parameter selection was observed. From the result, the more measurement parameters the smaller RMS error and even though the number of measurement parameters was the same, the RMS error was obtained differently according to which measurement parameters were selected. The case using eight instrument parameters of case IV-4 had small error comparably and was economic and it was important to select optimal number of measurement and optimal measurement parameters.

Urban is more intelligent continuously with the help of the convergence with IT technology. And it requires an integrated control system, which can manage urban facilities or monitor large-scale events based on GIS data, to provide its citizen with various ubiquitous services such as u-Health, u-Traffic, context-awareness etc. In order to realize the intelligent city geo-sensors that have the functionalities of generic sensing as well as location awareness will be established everywhere in the near future. Our system we presented have a rule engine to handle a atomic event as well as complex events that contain control flow or branch among them. And it can allow for visualization and monitoring the results through KML (Keyhole Mark-up Language) in the Google Maps. This paper describes au-GIS event processing system that can deal effectively with u-GIS events coming from various geo-sensor data in ubiquitous computing environments.

A performance simulation program for the turboprop engine (PT6A-62), which is the power plant of the first Korean indigenous basic trainer KT-1, was developed for performance prediction, development of an EHMS (Engine Health Monitoring System) and the flight simulator. Characteristics of components including compressors, turbines, power turbines and the constant speed propeller were required for the steady state and transient performance analysis with on and off design point analysis. In most cases, these were substituted for what scaled from similar engine components'characteristics with the scaling law. The developed 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 such as mass flow rate, compressor pressure ratio, fuel flow rate, specific fuel consumption and turbine inlet temperature were discussed to evaluate validity of the developed program at various cases. The first case was the sea level static standard condition and other cases were considered with various altitudes, flight velocities and part loads with the range between idle and 105% rotational speed of the gas generator. In the transient analysis, the Continuity of Mass Flow Method was utilized under the condition that mass stored between components is ignored and the flow compatibility is satisfied, and the Modified Euler Method was used for integration of the surplus torque. The transient performance analysis for various fuel schedules was performed. When the fuel step increase was considered, the overshoot of the turbine inlet temperature occurred. However, in case of ramp increase of the fuel longer than step increase of the fuel, the overshoot of the turbine inlet temperature was effectively reduced.

The aircraft gas turbine engines with the Electronic Engine Controls(EEC) had been developed to save fuel and enhance their performance in the early days, and had employed the health monitoring function in the Full Authority Digital Engine Controls(FADEC) to improve their reliability. This has led to an increasing demand for the certification technology of these controls. The design and certification issues of power supply, aircraft supplied data, failure modes, software verification/validation, and lightning requirements need to be addressed. This paper presents the design considerations and the certification techniques applied to the electronic engine controls. And it is believed that this paper will be basis to establish a requirement in Korean Airworthiness Standard.
