This paper is concerned with level control of a upper plate in a vehicle. The objective of control is to maintain the upper plate at level regardless of road slopes. The road slope is detected using an accelerometer-type inclinometer and H infinity control method is used to simultaneously reduce effects of road slopes and sensor noises. By the simulation, it is shown that the upper plate is successfully maintained at level.

In this paper, a novel anti-sway control system that uses an inclinometer as a sway sensor is investigated. The inclinometer, when compared with a vision system, is very cheap, durable, and its maintenance is easy. However, it gives almost the same performance. Various observers for estimating the angular velocity of the load and the trolley velocity are presented. A state feedback controller with an integrator is designed. After a time-scale analysis, a 1/4-size pilot crane of the rail-mounted quayside crane is constructed. The performance of the proposed control system was verified with a real rubber-tired gantry crane at a container terminal as well as with the pilot crane constructed. Experimental results are provided.

The use of inclinometer to measure deflections of structures is tested through experiments. By placing sensors at the ends of specimens, which are easy to accessed, the maximum deflection of a beam at the center is measured. Upon changing load, the inclined angles are measured and then converted to deflection using mathematical relationship between the deflection and rotational angle. Through this research, it is expected to promote the use of inclinometers for structural health monitoring of buildings and civil structures.

The use of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) accelerometers in geotechnical instrumentation is relatively new but on the rise. This paper describes a new MEMS-based system for in situ deformation and vibration monitoring. The system has been developed in an effort to combine recent advances in the miniaturization of sensors and electronics with an established wireless infrastructure for on-line geotechnical monitoring. The concept is based on triaxial MEMS accelerometer measurements of static acceleration (angles relative to gravity) and dynamic accelerations. The dynamic acceleration sensitivity range provides signals proportional to vibration during earthquakes or construction activities. This MEMS-based in-place inclinometer system utilizes the measurements to obtain three-dimensional (3D) ground acceleration and permanent deformation profiles up to a depth of one hundred meters. Each sensor array or group of arrays can be connected to a wireless earth station to enable real-time monitoring as well as remote sensor configuration. This paper provides a technical assessment of MEMS-based in-place inclinometer systems for geotechnical instrumentation applications by reviewing the sensor characteristics and providing small- and full-scale laboratory calibration tests. A description and validation of recorded field data from an instrumented unstable slope in California is also presented.

In this paper, a new, simple capacitive tilt sensor with a metallic ball is proposed. The proposed tilt sensor has only two electrodes and a metallic ball, and this design assists in managing the inherent contact problem in measuring tilt angles. Capacitive sensing, compared with other types of tilt sensor, has many advantages such as simplicity, noncontact measurement, long-throw linear displacement, and sub-micron plate spacing. Its design and fabrication process are significantly simpler than previous types of tilt sensors. The dimensions of the prototype tilt sensor are $20mm{\times}20mm$, and the diameter of the polystyrene tube is 5 mm with a tube thickness of 0.15 mm. An analytical study of the prototype capacitive tilt sensor was undertaken, and the experimental results demonstrate the relationship between the tilt angles and measured capacitances compared with the analytical study.

The attitude control, sensors and camera installed on the spacecraft should be located according to the system alignment requirement. The alignment measurement requirement accuracy for the sensors should be below $\pm$0.1. Therefore, Alignment Measurement System which is combined theodolite, Rotating table and digital inclinometer etc., should be used. As the measurement accuracy is required very precise, the appropriate measurement procedure and alignment angle measurement, calculation and shimming work should is accomplished. Consequently, this paper is accomplished the works to align the measurement requirement accuracy throughout alignment measurement and shimming work of installed module and sensor

선행연구에서는 지중경사계의 문제점인 1) 지중경사계관 설치의 어려움, 2) 단면 변위 파악의 한계성, 3) 인력 중심의 계측 방식을 해결하기 위한 2D LiDAR 센서 기반의 흙막이 벽체 변위 계측 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 선행연구에서 개발된 흙막이 벽체 변위 계측 시스템 내 탑재될 변위 분석 알고리즘을 선정하는 것이다. 변위 분석 알고리즘 선정 결과, 변위 추정 오차가 2mm인 M3C2 알고리즘이 흙막이 벽체 변위 분석 알고리즘으로 선정되었다. 본 연구 결과에서 선정된 M3C2 알고리즘이 흙막이 벽체 변위 계측 시스템에 탑재되고 수차례의 현장 실험을 통해 변위 분석 결과의 신뢰성이 담보될 경우 흙막이 벽체 변위 계측 시스템이 현행 계측관리 대비 변위 계측의 편리성 측면에서 효과적으로 흙막이 벽체의 변위를 관리할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
