  • In this paper, a fuzzy hyperresolution principle called CFHR. Compensatory Fuzzy Hyperresolution, with positive compensation facility is proposed. Usually hyperresolution has several terms of conditon parts. Theser terms have to be connected by the an connective. If the main/max operator to be used the and operation, there is some dependency problem of the min/max operator. So , we propose a compensatory operator EGM and applied it to the CFHR, We show the CFHR does more meaningful reasoning than existing method. We also prove the completeness of CFHR.

  • During disaster response, prioritization of limited resources is one of the most important but challenging tasks. At the same time, it is imperative to timely provide to the rescuers with the adequate heavy equipment to facilitate lifesaving operations. However, supply of high demand equipment is usually insufficient during the initial phase of disaster response, challenging lifesaving operations. At the same time, resources outside of the disaster affected zone converge into the area to assist the response efforts, which is the effect of convergence that often made resource coordination challenging in large scale disasters. Meanwhile, the initial condition of the disaster is usually best known by civilians already at the area before and during impact of the disaster. The knowledge of the civilians is not always received and considered by the responding organizations. With the help of these civilians, critical information such as victim location, infrastructure damage, and risk condition could be better know before any response actions are taken. To efficiently collect information and utilize the converging resources, this paper proposes a geospatial information repository for initial condition reporting and update to guide search and rescue operations and deployment of equipment with safety considerations for the rescuers in large scale disaster response scenarios.

  • Considering irrigation facilities are currently insufficient and drought vulnerability due to climate change is high, efficient measures are required to secure water supply for field crops. This study, therefore, calculated the water shortage to secure water for representative field crops. An economic analysis was further conducted by comparing the production income to the input cost for each method. Here, five distinct regions were selected to represent each crop-Cheongyang-gun for chili peppers, Yesan-gun for apples, Dangjin-si for cabbages, Seosan-si for garlic, and Goesan for beans. The regions with insufficient water supply were estimated by calculating the water requirements and the supplied water from public groundwater wells for each area. A comprehensive set of four scenarios was presented as a strategy to ensure water security and manage irrigation facilities. These scenarios comprised the maintenance of existing groundwater wells, the construction of new water storage tanks, the installation of additional groundwater wells, and the utilization of surface water. B/C (benefit/cost) analysis was conducted for each scenario. As a result, the construction of water storage tanks was selected as a facility and water management plan in Cheongyang-gun, Dangjin-si, and Seosan-si. The analysis additionally indicated the economic viability of installing surface water utilization facilities in Yesan-gun and developing water storage tanks and groundwater (aquifer) wells in Goesan-gun. The results of this study are considered to serve as foundation data that may be utilized in the selection of water management plans for drought-prone areas in the future.

  • Objective: The purpose of this study is to assess the reducing effect of workload on developed electro-motion scissors. Methods: To achieve this, we measured the pressure distribution, Joint angle of fingers and JSI(Job Strain Index) for electro-motion scissors and hand-operated scissor in objective assessment and surveyed the uncomfortable degree in subjective assessment. Results: As a result, The peak of pressure in the electro-motion scissors was generally lower than the hand-operated scissors. JSI and overall joint angle of fingers for the electro-motion scissors were remarkably lower than the hand-operated scissors. Also, the subjective uncomfortable degree showed that the uncomfortable point of electro-motion scissors were generally lower than the hand operated scissors. Conclusion: The impact of reducing the work load as well as distributing the pressure around the hand by using electro-motion scissors during grapes pinching was confirmed.

  • Persistent current switch (PCS) system in NMR, MRI, MAGLEV and SMES has many advantages, such as uniformity and durability of magnetic field and reducing a thermal loss, which enable many superconducting application to operate effectively. This paper deals with fabrication and test of heater trigger persistent current switch using coated conductor (CC) which has high n-index, critical current independency from external magnetic field and adaptable selectivity of stabilizer. PCS system consists of magnet power supply for energizing current to a magnet, heater, switch and magnet using coated conductor tape. Finite element method (FEM) is used to simulate thermal quench (switching) characteristic and design heater trigger. With FEM simulation, optimal length of heater is calculated by temperature and time analysis. Fabrication of PCS system and test of heater trigger characteristic were performed and compared with simulation result. This paper would be the foundation of researches of superconducting switching application.

  • 항만 구조물인 케이슨 및 블록 등을 수중에 거치하기 위해서는 기초사석을 투하하고 이 위에 구조물을 설치한다. 이때 기초 사석은 상구구조물을 지지하기 위한 기초 토대로서 사석의 규격, 비중, 중량 모양 및 치수 등이 균일하고 치밀하여야 하며 선정시험을 통과한 사석만을 사용하여 시공하야 한다. 또한 이러한 기초 사석을 고르게 만들어 주는 작업 구조물의 거치 이전에 반드시 이루어 져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 수중 고르기 작업 공정의 무인화를 위하여 수중 고르기 및 굴삭용 무인기계 뿐만 아니라 무인기계화 시공을 위한 원격제어용 운영시스템, 수중 물체 인식 및 수중위치 분석을 위한 수중 환경 모니터링 시스템이 개발되었다. 본 장비는 육상 및 수중 테스트를 통하여 검증을 완료 하여 우수한 성능을 확인하였다. 그러나 현장에 본 장비를 투입하기 위해서는 성능뿐만 아니라 건설 공정의 제안 및 분석 그리고 효율(경제성)이 분석되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 수중고르기장비의 성능 및 기능, 건설공정절차, 기존의 공법과의 비교 분석하였다. 분석결과 기존의 잠수부를 투입하는 건설공법에 비하여 경제성, 효율성, 안전성이 향상되는 것으로 확인되었다.

  • 천해역에서의 해상풍력터빈의 기초 형식으로 모노파일, 트라이포드, 재킷 등의 고정식 기초 사이의 최적의 지지구조물 선별에 대한 논의가 세계적으로 활발하게 되어왔다. 다양한 기초 형식 가운데 어떤 기초를 최종 선택하기 위해서는 경제성과 함께 동적설계 측면에서의 검토도 필요하다. 이 연구에서는 고정식 기초를 해상풍력터빈의 기초로 적용하는 경우 전체 구조물의 고유주파수에 미치는 하중 및 지반 물성치의 불확실성의 영향을 정량적으로 검토하였다. 연구결과, 모노파일의 고유주파수의 변동이 가장 심한 것을 알 수 있었고, 따라서 모노파일 기초를 설계에 반영하는 경우에는 지반 물성치의 불확실성을 최소화시키는 것이 중요하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

  • This study was performed to improve the utilization of the ROPS and seatbelt of tractors in Korea. We surveyed the ROPS and seatbelt use and the tractor related accidents through the personal interviews for 141 farmers. And comfort test for tractor seatbelts is done for 4 different subjects by measuring the body pressure distribution. The survey showed that 79.3% of the tractor accidents was overturning accidents. And, in case the tractor has ROPS and seatbelt, there was no serious injuries. With this results, we could confirm that ROPS and seatbelt is very effective devices for protecting drivers in overturning accidents. But, in case farmers didn't wear seatbelt, there was some fatal injuries. This shows the importance of the seatbelt use in working and driving tractors. Therefore, we tested the comfort of the tractor seatbelt for 4 different subjects operating the pedal in tractor seat simulator and in the tractor running on various roads. From the results of the static test in the Lab, it was shown that more the seatbelt anchorage point is far form SIP point, more the body pressure of the belly became higher, and more the subjects feel uncomfortable. Not only in the static test in the simulator, but also in the dynamic test in riding tractors, it was shown that non retractable seatbelt was more uncomfortable than retractable seatbelt. According to this study, we concluded that we need to promote the utilization of the ROPS and seatbelt use. And, the non retractable seatbelt need to be replaced by retractable seatbelt. Also, we recommend that the seatbelt anchorage position should to be in the seatbelt anchorage area of the ISO 3776 standard.
