This paper proposed a method for the cancellation of the moving artifact which was produced during the detection of drowsiness usmg electrodermal activity signal. Two types of wrist electrode were developed to overcome the defect of the steering wheel type electrode which couldn't eliminate the moving artifacts due to driver's movements. Wrist type electrode II which has been modified from electrode type I was most effective for eliminating movmg artifacts compared to wheel type electrode and wrisL type electrode 1. The decIsion criteria(if IRI$\leq$10 and 1.1$\leq$dNz) for detecting moving artifact was determined from the virtual driving experiments. An algorithm which substituted past value of Nz for the current value of Nz whenever an EDA signal satisfied the criteria was developed. The experimental resulls of virtual driving and road test showed that the proposed algorithm had been successfully removed the most of the error due to the moving artifact Therefore, the developed system which use electrode type II and the algorithm might be less influenced by moving artifacts and could measure an accurate arousal state.

To develop and improve a GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear), the prediction of the pressure in puffer cylinder and the flow between the nozzle and the moving electrode within GIS is very important.The leading companies in GIS business issue the results of the study of flow within GIS including arc plasma. In this study, the characteristics of the flow of the GIS developed by HHI(Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. Ltd.) was investigated. To simulate the compressible flow of GIS, the CFX, a commercial CFD code, was used. With moving grid method, the movement of piston and electrode was simulated. The moving grid method was superior to the method of varying the property of cells to move an obsticle, in stability and convergencce of solution. The calculated maximum pressure within the puffer cylinder was matched with experimental data within $5{\%}$ error. The oscilation of pressure in GIS after the movement of electrode was well predicted.

This study investigate the effect of collection plate velocity on the electrical and collection characteristics of a moving electrode electrostatic precipitator (MEEP). Though a high resistivity fly ash is attached at the collecting electrode, the MEEP has very stable characteristics of voltage and corona current. Collection efficiency, corona current, and overall collection efficiency are increased, as the magnitude of the collection plate velocity increases.

In this paper, the analysis of dynamic characteristics and performance investigation of the ER damper are investigated. The ER damper is based on a double rod actuator and an electric field are applied to the moving electrode composed of cylinder and piston. The performance of the ER damper is length of piston electrode field and its velocities. The experimental and calculated results show that the characteristic of the ER damper varies with the magnitude of the electric field.

A HEV-relay plays a significant role as a mechanical switch which determines the operation of a gasoline engine or an electric motor in a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV). The HEV-relay has critical two problems in the operating process. First, the unstable current can occur in the operating process of the HEV-relay due to the severe bounce between moving and fixed electrode. Second, noises occur due to impact between electrodes in HEV-relay. In this research, spring properties such as stiffness and initial compression force, and electrode shape are designed to reduce the bounce time and noises caused by impact between moving and fixed electrode. The operating process of HEV-relay is simulated using LS-DYNA3D as explicit finite element code. The optimum spring properties are determined using the response surface method (RSM) as the design methodology, and the electrode shape is newly designed through the modifying the stiffness of moving and fixed electrode.

This study investigates the effect of the wave form of pulse energization and dust concentration on the collection characteristics of a moving electrode electrostatic precipitator (MEEP). Under the same specific corona power, the collection efficiency of the MEEP for the lower dust concentration ($2g/m^3$) becomes higher than that for the higher concentration ($10g/m^3$). Both the collection efficiency and specific corona power increase with increasing pulse period for the same value of applied voltage. The collection efficiency of MEEP is higher than that of the conventional fixed plate electrode electrostatic precipitator.

LB layers of L-$\alpha$-DLPC deposited by LB method were deposited onto n-type silicon wafer as Z-type film. Films made up of 8, 16 layers of lipid with long alkyl chain and the thickness of monolayer and multilayers was determined by ellipsometry. It was deposited Ag and Al onto LB layers and silicon wafer for electrode and small electrode exhibit high capacitance and low leakage current. The C-V curves of the MLS capacitor shows very high saturation value of capacitance. And cross-sectional SEM image of MLS capacitor indicated the presence of pore with Al electrode and we found that the Ag is good for electrode metal.

The interpretation of the reaction mechanism is significant to produce the high quality welds and understand the welding processes. This investigation is important for the design of welding consumables and the selection of welding process parameters to develop the high quality welds. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of electrochemical reactions on the transfer of alloy elements between slag and weld metal during submerged arc welding During submerged arc welding weld metal composition is shown to be controlled by two reaction mechanisms in four reaction zones. The responsible reaction mechanisms are thermochemical and electrochemical reactions. The possible reaction sites are the melted electrode tip, the detached droplet, the hot weld pool immediately below the moving electrode, and the cooling and solidifying weld pool behind the moving electrode. The possible reactions in submerged arc welding at different zones of the process is schematically shown in Figure 1.

This paper describes the influence of conducting particle in the coaxial cylindrical electrodes under alternating voltage condition investigated using breakdown electric field and electro magnetics simulation method. Simulated particle-location in GIS chamber were the particle on electrode, the particle on enclosure and free moving particle. As results, it was founded that in case of breakdown electric field of the GIS chamber, breakdown electric field of particle on electrode was the lowest, that of free moving particle was middle and that of particle on enclosure was the highest. And in case of the electric field analysis with particle locations, electric field of particle on electrode was the highest that of lifted particle was middle and that of particle on enclosure was the lowest. This results can offer a practical reference ra the insulation design of domestic GIS.

This paper proposes a dry-type active surface EMG electrode for the myoelectric prosthetic hand. The designed electrode is small size for embedding in the socket of prosthetic hand, and it has three leads including the reference of signal. To acquire EMG signal rejected the power noise, a precision differential amplifier and various filters such as the band pass filter band rejection filter, low pass and high pass filter are embedded on the electrode. The final output of the electrode is integrated absolute EMG (IEMG) obtained by full rectifier and moving average circuits. From experimental results using the implemented dry-type active surface EMG electrode, the proposed electrode is feasible for the myoelectric prosthetic hand.
