A technical performance of the coating depends greatly on the thickness of painting film or coating film. Therefore the confirmed report of the technique to measure accurately is essential to the coating film thickness for the assessment about a coating quality performance. In this paper, two gap sensors - eddy current gap sensor and capacitance gap sensor - which has a different operating principle were used to measure the thickness of a nonmagnetic substance coating film such as paint, enamel or ceramic that was coated on the metallic material. A capacitance gap sensor was used to measure the distance between the sensor head and a coating film and an eddy current gap sensor to measure the distance between the sensor head and a base metal. Then the thickness of a coating film was obtained by the difference of two measurement value. At this result, the suggested dual sensor can measure an arbitrary film thickness to be coated on a base metal as the measurement value of coating thickness exists accurately within the 2％ error.

본 논문은 선박의 외벽 청소를 위하여 영상기반의 용접부 인식기능을 탑재한 선체 블라시팅 로봇을 제시하였다. 본 로봇제작의 목표로서 선체 청소로봇의 설계 및 제작과정과 영상을 이용한 용접 비드 인식에 따른 성능 결과를 제시하였다. 그리고, 로봇제작에 따른 메카니즘과 로봇시스템의 제어기 제작 과정과 수직상승 메카니즘, 영상 시스템, 원격제어 기능을 갖는 선체 청소 특성에 대해서 기술하였다. 이러한 선체 청소로봇은 선박이 정박하는 동안에 청소를 수행하게 되므로 재도킹을 할 필요가 없는 장점이 있다. 따라서, 개발된 청소작업은 시간과 비용을 절감할 수 있고, 선체의 수직벽면의 주행이 가능하므로 부유물질 등을 수집할 수 있는 필러장치를 장착하고 있다. 개발된 로봇시스템의 동작 및 통신 성능테스트 결과를 통하여 성능평가 결과를 제시하였다.

본 연구는 자율협력주행차량의 협력 인프라 중 하나인 도로표지판을 대상으로 LiDAR의 검지성능 변화를 알아보았다. 이를 위해서 색깔과 재질이 다른 도로표지판을 제작하여 실제도로 환경에서 강우량을 통제한 테스트를 수행하였다. 성능지표는 NPC와 Intensity로 선정하였고, 집단간의 비교는 T-Test를 활용하였다. 연구결과, 모든 재질에서 강수량이 증가할수록 LiDAR의 성능지표가 감소되는 결과가 관측되었다. 재귀반사지는 강수량 증가에 따른 성능지표 감소가 페인트 도색에 비해선 작았지만, 이 역시 40mm이상의 강수량에서는 데이터의 관측이 되지 않을 정도로 성능이 저하되었다. 검은색 페인트는 맑은 날에도 다른 색들에 비하여 성능지표가 낮았으며 특히, 백색의 재귀반사지는 성능지표가 강수량 증가에 가장 민감하게 저하되었다. 이러한 성능검증 결과는 향후 센서의 시인성을 제고하는 도로시설물 제작에 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

How is the flow in a rotating impeller. About 35 years have passed since one experimentalist rotating with the impeller. of a huge centrifugal blower made the flow measurements using a hot-wire anemometer (Fowler 1968). Optical measurement methods have great advantages over the intrusive methods especially for the flow measurement in a rotating impeller. One is the optical flow visualization (FV) technique (Senoo, et al., 1968) and the other is the application of laser velocimetry (LV) (Hah and Krain, 1990). Particle image velocimetries (PIVs) combine major features of both FV and LV, and are very attractive due to the feasibility of simultaneous and multi-points measurements (Hayami and Aramaki, 1999). A high-pressure-ratio transonic centrifugal compressor with a low-solidity cascade diffuser was tested in a closed loop with HFC134a gas at 18,000rpm (Hayami, 2000). Two kinds of measurement techniques by image processing were applied to visualize a flow in the compressor. One is a velocity field measurement at the inducer of the impeller using a PIV and the other is a pressure field measurement on the side wall of the cascade diffuser using a pressure sensitive paint (PSP) measurement technique. The PIV was successfully applied for visualization of an unsteady behavior of a shock wave based on the instantaneous velocity field measurement (Hayami, et al., 2002b) as well as a phase-averaged velocity vector field with a shock wave over one blade pitch (Hayami, et al., 2002a. b). A violent change in pressure was successfully visualized using a PSP measurement during a surge condition even though there are still some problems to be overcome (Hayami, et al., 2002c). Both PIV and PSP results are discussed in comparison with those of laser-2-focus (L2F) velocimetry and those of semiconductor pressure sensors. Experimental fluid dynamics (EFDs) are still growing up more and more both in hardware and in software. On the other hand, computational fluid dynamics (CFDs) are very attractive to understand the details of flow. A secondary flow on the side wall of the cascade diffuser was visualized based either steady or unsteady CFD calculations (Bonaiuti, et al.,2002). EFD and CFD methods will be combined to a hybrid method being complementary to each other. Measurement techniques by image processing as well as CFD calculations give a huge amount of data. Then, data mining technique will become more important to understand the flow mechanism both for EFD and CFD.

Piezoelectric ceramics play an important role in various electronic applications. However, traditional ceramics are difficult to be used in some complicated structures, due to their low flexibility and high brittleness. To solve this problem, this study prepared and investigated ceramic/polymer composites that can utilize a good flexibility of polymers. Polyvinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene (PVDF-TrFE) and 0.77(Bi_1/2Na_1/2)TiO₃-0.23SrTiO₃ (BNST23) ceramics were selected to fabricate the composites. Ceramic/polymer composites were prepared using various volume fractions of BNST23 ceramics. The distribution of piezoceramic particles in BNST23/PVDF-TrFE composites was investigated using optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The dielectric and piezoelectric properties of the composites were significantly influenced by the volume fraction of the piezoelectric ceramics. As a result, the highest piezoelectric constant (d₃₃) of 56 pC/N was obtained in a composites with 70% volume fraction of BNST23 ceramics. Accordingly, it is expected that BNST23/PVDF-TrFE composites can be applied to various sensor applications.
