  • Over the past decades, radiation therapy combined with imaging modalities that ensure optimal image guidance has revolutionized cancer treatment. The two major purposes of using imaging modalities in radiotherapy are to clearly delineate the target prior to treatment and set up the patient during radiation delivery. Image guidance secures target position prior to and during the treatment. High quality images provide an accurate definition of the treatment target and the possibility to reduce the treatment margin of the target volume, further lowering radiation toxicity and improving the quality of life of cancer patients. In this review, the various types of image guidance modalities used in radiation therapy are distinguished into ionized (kilovoltage and megavoltage image) and nonionized imaging (magnetic resonance image, ultrasound, surface imaging, and radiofrequency). The functional aspects, advantages, and limitation of imaging using these modalities are described as a subsection of each category. This review only focuses on the technological viewpoint of these modalities and any clinical aspects are omitted. Image guidance is essential, and its importance is rapidly increasing in modern radiotherapy. The most important aspect of using image guidance in clinical settings is to monitor the performance of image quality, which must be checked during the periodic quality assurance process.

  • In any subject area related to the provision of safety, failure is typically the most effective mechanism for evoking rapid reform and an introspective assessment of the accepted operating methods and standards within a professional body. In the realm of tall buildings the most notable failures in history, those of the WTC towers, widely accepted as fire induced failures, have not to any significant extent affected the way they are designed with respect to fire safety. This is clearly reflected in the surge in numbers of Tall Buildings being constructed since 2001. The combination of the magnitude and time-scale of the WTC investigation coupled with the absence of meaningful guidance resulting from it strongly hints at the outdatedness of current fire engineering practice as a discipline in the context of such advanced infrastructure. This is further reflected in the continual shift from prescriptive to performance based design in many parts of the world demonstrating an ever growing acceptance that these buildings are beyond the realm of applicability of prescriptive guidance. In order for true performance based engineering to occur however, specific performance goals need to be established for these structures. This work seeks to highlight the critical elements of a fire safety strategy for tall buildings and thus attempt to highlight some specific global performance objectives. A survey of tall building fire investigations is conducted in order to assess the effectiveness of current designs in meeting these objectives, and the current state-of-the-art of fire safety design guidance for tall structures is also analysed on these terms. The correct definition of the design fire for open plan compartments is identified as the critical knowledge gap that must be addressed in order to achieve tall building performance objectives and to provide truly innovative, robust fire safety for these unique structures.

  • 자기테이프를 사용하는 대부분의 경량무인운반차들(AGCs)은 디지털 자기유도센서를 사용한다. 디지털 자기유도센서는 On/Off 타입으로 자기테이프의 위치측정 정밀도가 10~50 mm의 오차를 가진다. 또한 경량무인운반차에 설치된 모터의 자기장이나 주변 환경의 외부 자기장, 지자기 등으로 인하여 정확한 위치를 추정하기 힘들다. 이러한 오차로 인하여 경량무인운반차의 주행 시에 잦은 흔들림이 발생하게 되고, 정도가 심할 경우 이탈현상이 발생하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문은 양극성 아날로그 자기유도센서에 퍼지 추론 시스템의 적용을 제안한다. 퍼지는 다른 알고리즘에 비하여 내고장성과 불확실성에 강인하고, 실시간 작동에 유리하며, 비선형시스템에 사용하기 적합하다. 선행과제에서 제작한 양극성 아날로그 자기유도센서로 threshold를 두어 디지털 자기유도센서를 형성하고, 이를 이용하여 자석위치 값을 계산한다. On으로 인식된 아날로그 Hall sensor의 출력을 이용하여 퍼지 추론 시스템을 설계하고, 그 출력으로 디지털출력 값을 개선한다. 실험 결과, 제안된 방법이 기존의 자기유도센서보다 성능이 향상된 것을 확인하였다.

  • In past, parking lot was placed on the ground and for the reason air quality was not in problem. But recently parking lot has been placed under the ground and the air quality becomes problem. So in this study, the ventilation performance on the underground parking lot was estimated by using CFD software and alternative system was suggested. Three case studies are handled in this study. 1st case is just an underground parking lot. 2nd case is about an underground parking lot where has 4 fan rooms on each floor and 3rd case is about an underground parking lot where has 4 fan rooms and 30 guidance fans on each floor.

  • The objectives of this study is to classify evacuation types, derive the characteristics of 4 types, develop and discover evacuation routes within the performance hall space, and present the statistical classification results of the evacuation classification model by classification type. To achieve this purpose, the characteristics of each evacuation type's four types are applied through a network reliability analysis method and utilized for institutional improvement and policy. This study applies for the building law, evacuation and relief safety standards when establishing a performance hall safety management plan, and reflects it in safety-related laws, safety standards, and policy systems. Statistical data by evacuation type were analyzed, and measurement characteristics were compared and analyzed by evacuation types. Evaluate the morphological similarity and reliability of evacuation types according to door width and passage length and propose the install position of evacuation guidance sign boards. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data to provide operation strategies for safety facility evacuation information sign boards according to evacuation route classification types when taking a safety management plan. The operation strategy for the evacuation sign boards installation that integrates employee guidance and safety training is applied to the performance hall safety management plan. It will contribute to establishing an operational strategy for performance space safety when constructing performance facilities in the future.

  • A practical filter is suggested for ground-Dasea missile tracking in a capture guidance mode, utilizing angle-only measurements from a passive sensor and its performance is evaluated by a realistic system simulation study. Also suggested is a missile acceleration model that provides inputs to the filter. The suggested filter has a decoupled structure of independent azimuth and elevation channels with efficiency in commutation time and memory requirements.

  • For an automatic steering problem of vehicles, the main task is to keep a reference path with assumption that the displacement from the guideline can be measured by a sensor. In this paper, a sliding mode fuzzy logic controller design method is introduced and it shows highly enhanced performance in comparison with the other results. The method can be relatively simply implemented.

  • 본 논문에서는 충돌각 구속조건을 갖는 비행체 호밍 제어 유도법칙에 대한 역최적 문제를 제시한다. 편향비례항법 유도법칙의 이득과 LQ 문제에서의 가중치와의 관계를 규명하고, Riccati 방정식으로부터 제어입력이 LQ 최적제어가 되기 위한 영역을 제시한다. 이를 근거로 종말 구속조건을 만족하는 호밍 유도법칙의 제어이득이 최적제어법칙이 되기 위한 범위를 제안한다. 이론적 해석 결과의 타당성은 3-DOF 모의시험을 통하여 확인한다.
