To measure the flow rate of the liquid oxygen, two types of multi-hole orifice meter were prepared. The $C_d$ of the orifice meter was determined by the flow test using water. After performing the liquid oxygen flow test for orifice meter and Coriolis meter, the mass flow rate was calculated using the $C_d$. The error of the mass flow rate compare to Coriolis meter, A-type(1/2") was below than 0.4%, B-type(3/4") was below than 0.8%.

In reverse engineering, the whole surfaces of the three-dimensional(3D) product are measured using 3D positional scanners. The raw triangle meshes constructed from a scanned point set are not well suited for direct use in the downstream activities. This is because the amount of triangle meshes may be very large(from millions to hundreds of millions) and usually distorted by scanning error. Furthermore, the triangle meshes may contain several holes that must be filled. Thus, several solutions have to be addressed and implemented before a complete CAD models can be acquired. This paper discusses on the algorithms of decimation, smoothing, and hole-filling that are crucial to refine the triangle meshes. Several examples are also given and discussed to validate the system.

Impedance control is recognised as one of the most proper control scheme to carry out the assembly tasks, since it can control the dynamic relationship between the manipulator and environment directly. However, it is well known that the contact force cannot be controlled directly using the impedance control. Also impedance parameters should be properly defined depending on the task to be performed. We propose a new position based impedance control, which has self-adjusted impedance parameters and can control the contact force explicitly, Impedance parameters, as time-varying parameters, are adjusted automatically based on the measured contact force and the position error during the task. A proposed algorithm was implemented on the peg-in-hole task with the industrial manipulator. We shows the effectiveness of proposed control method experimentally.

Stereo matching techniques are categorized in two major schemes, local and global matching techniques. In global matching schemes, several investigations are introduced, where cost accumulation is performed in multiple matching lines. In this paper, we introduce a new multi-line stereo matching techniques which expands a conventional single-line matching scheme to multiple one. Matching cost is based on simple normalized cross correlation. We expand the scan-line optimization technique to a multi-line scan-line optimization technique. The proposed technique first generates a reliability image, which is iteratively updated based on the previous reliability measure. After some number of iterations, the reliability image is completed by a hole-filling algorithm. The hole-filling algorithm introduces a disparity score table which records the disparity score of the current pixel. The disparity of an empty pixel is determined by comparing the scores of the neighboring pixels. The proposed technique is tested using the Middlebury and CMU stereo images. The error analysis shows that the proposed matching technique yields better performance than using conventional global matching algorithm.

This study presents a technique for assessing the dimensional quality of assembly parts in Prefabricated Steel Structures (PSS) using a stereo vision sensor. The stereo vision system captures images and point cloud data of the assembly area, followed by applying image processing algorithms such as fuzzy-based edge detection and Hough transform-based circular bolt hole detection to identify bolt hole locations. The 3D center positions of each bolt hole are determined by correlating 3D real-world position information from depth images with the extracted bolt hole positions. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is then employed to calculate coordinate axes for precise measurement of distances between bolt holes, even when the sensor and structure orientations differ. Bolt holes are sorted based on their 2D positions, and the distances between sorted bolt holes are calculated to assess the assembly part's dimensional quality. Comparison with actual drawing data confirms measurement accuracy with an absolute error of 1mm and a relative error within 4% based on median criteria.

The objective of this study is to evaluate an acoustic emission (AE) source characterization and fracture behavior of the SM45C steel by using back-propagation neural network (BPN). In previous research Ref. [8] about k-nearest neighbor classifier (k-NNC) continuity, we used K-means clustering method as an unsupervised learning method for obtaining multi-variate AE main data sets, such as AE counts, energy, amplitude, risetime, duration and counts to peak. Similarly, we applied k-NNC and BPN as a supervised learning method for obtaining multi-variate AE working data sets. According to the error of convergence for determinant criterion Wilk's ${\lambda}$, heuristic criteria D&B(Rij) and Tou values are discussed. As a result, in k-NNC before fracture signal is detected or when fracture signal is detected, showed that produce some empty classes in BPN. And we confirmed that could save trouble in AE signal processing if suitable error of convergence or acceptable encoding error give to BPN.

In this study, a new refinement technique for 3-dimensional hexahedral element mesh is proposed, which is aimed at the control of mesh density. With the proposed scheme the mesh is refined adaptively to the elemental error which is estimated by 'a posteriori' error estimator based on the energy norm. A desired accuracy of an analysis i.e. a limit of error defines the new desired mesh density map on the current mesh. To obtain the desired mesh density, the refinement procedure is repeated iteratively until no more elements to be refined exist. In the algorithm, at first the regions of mesh to be refined are defined and, then, the zero-thickness element layers are inserted into the interfaces between the regions. All the meshes in the regions, in which the zero-thickness layers are inserted, are to be regularized in order to improve the shape of the slender elements on the interfaces. This algorithm is tested on a simple shape of 2-d quadrilateral element mesh and 3-d hexahedral element mesh. A numerical example of elastic deformation of a plate with a hole shows the effectiveness of the proposed refinement scheme.

Since electric connectors such as power connectors have a small assembly tolerance and have a complex shape, the assembly process is performed manually by workers. Especially, it is difficult to overcome the assembly error, and the assembly takes a long time due to the error correction process, which makes it difficult to automate the assembly task. To deal with this problem, a reinforcement learning-based assembly strategy using contact states was proposed to quickly perform the assembly process in an unstructured environment. This method learns to generate a search trajectory to quickly find a hole based on the contact state obtained from the force/torque data. It can also learn the stiffness needed to avoid excessive contact forces during assembly. To verify this proposed method, power connector assembly process was performed 200 times, and it was shown to have an assembly success rate of 100% in a translation error within ±4 mm and a rotation error within ±3.5°. Furthermore, it was verified that the assembly time was about 2.3 sec, including the search time of about 1 sec, which is faster than the previous methods.

In this paper, we propose a method to interpolate two images obtained from two parallel cameras. The proposed method uses BDM(Bidirectional Disparity Map) to prevent hole generation due to occlusion. Furthermore, we use the block-based DM(Disparity Map) to decrease the amount of computation, and also use the adaptive block size to minimize the error of the block-based DM.

슬릿트나 관형의 흐름에서 유체의 유변학적 성질을 측정하기 위해서는 벽면에서의 압력구배를 알아야한다. 벽면에서의 압력측정은 특히 관형의 경우 압력구멍의 존자가 불가 피하다. 압력구멍에 의한 오차에 대한 이론적인 고찰이 있었지만 사용된 몇가지 가정이 실 험적인 과찰과 일치하지 않아 이들 이론에 대한 강한 의문을 제기하고 한다. 한편 실험적인 결과는 묽은 고분자 용액인 경우 측정압력에 대한 상대적인 압력구멍 오차가 무시할 수 없 을 정도로 크다. 압력구멍 오차는 압력구멍의 크기, Reynolds 수 (점성) 및 Weissenberg 수 (탄성)의 함수로 나타나고 있다. 그러나 농도가 비교적 높은 고분자 용액이나 용융체는 상대 적으로 무시할 수 있을 정도의 압력구멍 오차를 나타낸다.
