In this research a theoretical and numerical study on a bridge damage detection procedure is presented based on vibration measurements collected from a set of accelerometers. This method, referred to as "Adjoint Variable Method", is a sensitivity-based finite element model updating method. The approach relies on minimizing a penalty function, which usually consists of the errors between the measured quantities and the corresponding predictions attained from the model. Moving mass is an interactive model and includes inertia effects between the model and mass. This interactive model is a time varying system and the proposed method is capable of detecting damage in this variable system. Robustness of the proposed method is illustrated by correct detection of the location and extension of predetermined single, multiple and random damages in all ranges of speed and mass ratio of moving vehicle. A comparative study on common sensitivity and the proposed method confirms its efficiency and performance improvement in sensitivity-based damage detection methods. In addition various possible sources of error, including the effects of measurement noise and initial assumption error in stability of method are also discussed.

A smart parking management requires to track a vehicle in a indoor parking lot and to detect the place where the vehicle is parked. An advanced parking system watches all space of the parking lot with CCTV cameras. We can use these cameras for vehicles tracking and detection. In order to cover a wide area with a camera, a fisheye lens is used. In this case the shape and size of an moving vehicle vary much with distance and angle to the camera. This makes vehicle detection and tracking difficult. In addition to the fisheye lens, the vehicle headlights also makes vehicle detection and tracking difficult. This paper describes a method of realtime vehicle detection and tracking robust to the harsh situation described above. In each image frame, we update the region of a vehicle and estimate the vehicle movement. First we approximate the shape of a car with a quadrangle and estimate the four sides of the car using multiple histograms of oriented gradient. Second we create a template by applying a distance transform to the car region and estimate the motion of the car with a template matching method.

GPS 및 무선 통신 기술의 진보와 네트워크의 활성화 및 단말기의 소형화를 통해 이동하는 차량의 위치 추적이 가능해지고, 위치를 기반으로 한 서비스 개발이 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 위치기반 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 수많은 이동 객체 데이타를 빠르게 저장, 검색하기 위한 색인 기술이 필수적이다. 그러나 기존의 이동 객체 색인은 각각의 입력받는 위치 정보를 직접 색인에 입력하기 때문에 많은 비용이 든다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해, 색인의 입력 비용을 효과적으로 줄이는 버퍼 노드 방식을 제안하고, 이를 활용한 GU-트리를 설계한다. 제안된 버퍼 노드 방식은 입력받는 이동 객체 정보를 넌 리프 노드 단위로 그룹화하여 색인에 저장함으로써 데이타를 입력하는 시간을 효과적으로 줄인다. 그리고 기존의 색인과 비교 실험함으로써, 버퍼 노드 입력 방식이 이동 객체 색인의 데이타 입력 비용을 효과적으로 줄이고, 특정 시점 질의에서 검색의 성능을 높이는 것을 확인한다. 제안된 버퍼 노드 방식은 여행 가이드 및 물류 차량 관리 시스템과 같이 빈번한 위치 갱신이 이루어지는 환경에서 효과적으로 사용될 수 있다.

이 논문에서는 프리캐스트 바닥판 위를 이동하는 차량하중에 의한 바닥판 접합거동 특성을 분석하였다. 하중 재하를 위하여 프레임을 제작하였고 각 측정 장치를 활용하여 거동을 파악하였다. 바닥판의 정적응답을 검토하여 이론값과 비교하였고 그 특성은 매우 합리적임을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 동적영향 평가를 위하여 가속도, 속도 및 변위를 측정하여 시험에서 이동하중의 특성을 분석하였다. 이동하중에 의한 동적응답을 위하여 바닥판 진동수를 측정한 결과 하중 범위 변화에 따라 진동 특성도 민감하게 반응하는 것으로 나타났다. 결과적으로 연결부의 동적 응답은 연결방법에 따라 특성이 다르므로 설계에 주의를 기울여야 할 것으로 판단된다.

The major movement blocks of the container are the range between the apron and the designation points on yard in container terminals. The yard tractor drived by operator takes charge of it's movement in conventional container terminals. In automated container terminal, AGV(automatic guided vehicle) takes charge of a yard tractor's role and information of navigation path are ordered from upper control system. The automated container terminal facilities must have the docking system that guides landing zinc to execute high speed travelling and precision positioning. This paper describes the new docking method with the rotating LSB(laser slit beam) generator and two pair of photo receiver. The LSB generator is installed on the fixed ground and the photo receiver is implemented on the moving vehicle such as AGV. The proposed docking system is implemented to confirm it's function and accuracy. The accuracy of measured moving position is represented in ±5mm at 1 data sampling.

This paper presents a new method to study the impact factor of an old bridge based on the model updating technique. Using the genetic algorithm (GA) by minimizing an objective function of the residuals between the measured and predicted responses, the bridge and vehicle coupled vibration models were updated. Based on the displacement relationship and the interaction force relationship at the contact patches, the vehicle-bridge coupled system can be established by combining the equations of motion of both the bridge and vehicles. The simulated results show that the present method can simulate precisely the response of the tested bridge; compared with the other bridge codes, the impact factor specified by the bridge code of AASHTO (LRFD) is the most conservative one, and the value of Chinese highway bridge design code (CHBDC) is the lowest; for the large majority of old bridges whose road surface conditions have deteriorated, calculating the impact factor with the bridge codes cannot ensure the reliable results.

Recently, many unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) have been developed and researched for various fields such as the military, environment, and robotics. In order to perform purpose specific tasks, common autonomous navigation technologies are needed. Obstacle avoidance is important for safe autonomous navigation. This paper describes a vector field histogram+ (VFH+) based obstacle avoidance method that uses the monocular vision of an unmanned surface vehicle. After creating a polar histogram using VFH+, an open space without the histogram is selected in the moving direction. Instead of distance sensor data, monocular vision data are used for make the polar histogram, which includes obstacle information. An object on the water is recognized as an obstacle because this method is for USV. The results of a simulation with sea images showed that we can verify a change in the moving direction according to the position of objects.

In this paper, we propose a new method to detect traffic accidents in video from vehicle-mounted cameras (vehicle black box). We use the distance between vehicles to determine whether an accident has occurred. To calculate the position of each vehicle, we use object detection and tracking method. By the way, in a crowded road environment, it is so difficult to decide an accident has occurred because of parked vehicles at the edge of the road. It is not easy to discriminate against accidents from non-accidents because a moving vehicle and a stopped vehicle are mixed on a regular downtown road. In this paper, we try to increase the accuracy of the vehicle accident detection by using not only the motion of the surrounding vehicle but also ego-motion as the input of the Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). We improved the accuracy of accident detection compared to the previous method.

A large number of bridges were built several decades ago, and most of which have gradually suffered serious deteriorations or damage due to the increasing traffic loads, environmental effects, and inadequate maintenance. However, very few studies were conducted to investigate the vibration behaviors of a damaged bridge under moving vehicles. In this paper, the vibration behaviors of such vehicle-bridge system are investigated in details, in which the effects of the concrete cracks and bridge surface roughness are particularly considered. Specifically, two vehicle models are introduced, i.e., a simplified four degree-of-freedoms (DOFs) vehicle model and a more complex seven DOFs vehicle model, respectively. The bridges are modeled in two types, including a single-span uniform beam and a full scale reinforced concrete high-pier bridge, respectively. The crack zone in the reinforced concrete bridge is considered by a damage function. The bridge and vehicle coupled equations are established by combining the equations of motion of both the bridge and vehicles using the displacement relationship and interaction force relationship at the contact points between the tires and bridge. The numerical simulations and verifications show that the proposed modeling method can rationally simulate the vibration behaviors of the damaged bridge under moving vehicles; the effect of cracks on the impact factors is very small and can be neglected for the bridge with none roughness, however, the effect of cracks on the impact factors is very significant and cannot be neglected for the bridge with roughness.
