본 논문에서는 베이지안 추론법을 이용한 교량 실제 운영단계에서의 예방적 유지관리 전략 수립 기법을 제안하였다. 제안된 기법은 모니터링의 불확실성을 고려하여 실제 대상 교량의 상태 변화를 높은 확률로 예측할 수 있다. 실제 공용 중인 교량에 제안된 기법의 적용성을 검토함과 동시에, 손상이 발현된 후 유지보수 조치계획을 수립하는 현행 유지관리체계와 비교하여 유지관리 비용 효율성 측면에서 유리함을 분석하였다. 제안된 기법을 이용하여 기존 유지관리방법의 한계를 극복하고, 공용 중인 교량의 실질적인 유지관리체계 수립을 위한 교량 유지관리 의사결정에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

We present the interim results of simultaneous time monitoring observations of $^{28}SiO$ v = 1, 2, J = 1-0, $^{29}SiO$ v = 0, J = 1-0 and $H_2O$ $6_{16}-5_{23}$ maser lines toward 10 known water fountain sources at a post-AGB stage. The observations have been carried out from 2009 June to 2013 September using the 21m single dish radio telescopes of the Korean VLBI Network. From six sources, we detected well separated red- and blue-shifted $H_2O$ maser features with large velocity ranges more than 100 km $s^{-1}$. From four sources, we detected red- and/or blue-shifted $H_2O$ maser features depended on observational epochs. However, we could not detected SiO maser emission from any sources and any epochs. For a representative water fountain source W43A, we obtained $H_2O$ maser spectra at 17 epochs which show a clear bipolar and discontinuous mass ejections. They also showed a periodic change between red-shifted and blue-shifted peaks. However, we need a more regular and short-time interval monitoring observations in order to fix the period and peak intensity variation interval.

The characteristics of antimony implants are relatively well-known. Antimony has lower diffusion coefficient, shorter implantation range, and smaller scattering as compared with conventional dopants such as phosphorous and arsenic. It has been commonly used in the doping of buried layer in Bi-CMOS process. In this paper, characteristics and appropriate condition of monitoring in antimony implant beam tuning using $Sb_2O_3$ were investigated to get a reliable process. TW(Thema Wave) and Rs(Sheet Resistance) test were carried out to set up condition of monitoring for stable operation through the periodic inspection of instruction condition. The monitoring was progressed at the point that the slant of Rs varied significantly to investigate the variation of instruction accurately.

IR-UWB radar has been regarded as the most promising technology for non-contact respiration and heartbeat monitoring because of its ability of detecting slight motion even in submillimeter range. Measuring heart rate is most challenging since the chest movement by heartbeat is quite subtle and easily interfered with by a random body motion or background noise. Additionally, periodic sampling can be limited by the performance of computer that handles the radar signals. In this paper, we deploy Lomb-Scargle periodogram method that estimates heart rate even with irregularly sampled data and uneven signal amplitude. Lomb-Scargle periodogram is known as a method for finding periodicity in irregularly-sampled and noisy data set. We also implement a motion detection scheme in order to make the heart rate estimation pause when a random motion is detected. Our scheme is implemented using Novelda's X4M03 radar development kit and its corresponding drivers and Python packages. Experimental results show that the estimation with Lomb-Scargle periodogram yield more accurate heart rate than the method of measuring peak-to-peak distance.

유비쿼터스 헬스케어 환경의 실현을 위해 실시간의 생체 정보 모니터링은 매우 중요한 요소이다. 이러한 생체 정보 모니터링을 위한 장치는 대부분 PPG 신호를 얻어 피측정자의 상태 모니터링에 활용하고 있다. PPG 신호를 얻기 위해서는 핑거프로브를 손가락에 착용해야 하기 때문에 일상생활을 하기에 불편할 뿐만 아니라, 핑거 프로브 착용자의 움직임에 의한 동잡음으로 인하여 정확한 PPG신호를 얻기가 매우 힘들다. 본 논문에서는 핑거프로브를 없앤 U-헬스케어를 위한 손목형 생체 정보 모니터링 시스템을 개발하고, 생체 정보 모니터링 시스템의 감시 요소 중 하나인 PPG 신호의 동잡음 제거를 위해 새로운 알고리즘을 제안한다. 개발한 시스템은 핑거프로브를 없앤 대신 밴드스트립에 LED와 포토센서를 장착하여 손목의 동맥혈관의 혈류 변화량으로부터 PPG를 얻도록 설계하였다. 그러나 밴드스트립에 위치한 센서는 핑거프로브에 위치한 센서에 비해 많은 동잡음에 노출되어 있으므로, 그 동잡음들을 제거하기 위하여 최근 제기된 PPG 신호의 유사 주기성을 이용한 PMAF(Periodic Moving Average Filter) 방법을 개선한 새로운 동잡음 제거 방법을 제안한다.

As the operating time in nuclear power plants (NPPs) increases, the integrity of nuclear components may be continually degraded due to aging effects of systems, structures and components. Recently, a number of NPPs are being operated beyond their design life to produce more electricity without shutting down. The critical issue in extending a lifetime is to maintain the level of safety during the extended operation period while satisfying the international regulatory standards. Therefore, it is beneficial to build a monitoring system to measure an aging status. In this paper, the Aging Monitor (AM) based on lots of aging database obtained from the operating plants and research results on the aging effects was developed to monitor, manage and evaluate the aging phenomena systematically and effectively in NPPs. The AM for the CANDU is divided into 6 modules: (1) Aging Alarm/Coloring Monitor, (2) Aging Database, (3) Aging Document, (4) Real-time Integrity Monitor, (5) Surveillance and Inspection Management System, and (6) Continued Operation and Periodic Safety Review (PSR) Safety Evaluation. The proposed system is expected to provide the integrity assessment for the major mechanical components of an NPP under concurrent working environments.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are used to collect various data in environment monitoring applications. A spatial clustering may reduce energy consumption of data collection by partitioning the WSN into a set of spatial clusters with similar sensing data. For each cluster, only a few sensor nodes (samplers) report their sensing data to a base station (BS). The BS may predict the missed data of non-samplers using the spatial correlations between sensor nodes. ASAP is a representative data collection algorithm using the spatial clustering. It periodically reconstructs the entire network into new clusters to accommodate to the change of spatial correlations, which results in high message overhead. In this paper, we propose a new data collection algorithm, name EPDC (Energy-efficient Periodic Data Collection). Unlike ASAP, EPDC identifies a specific cluster consisting of many dissimilar sensor nodes. Then it reconstructs only the cluster into subclusters each of which includes strongly correlated sensor nodes. EPDC also tries to reduce the message overhead by incorporating a judicious probabilistic model transfer method. We evaluate the performance of EPDC and ASAP using a simulation model. The experiment results show that the performance improvement of EPDC is up to 84% compared to ASAP.

Items are assumed to fail by degradation. An appropriate stochastic model of such item is a cumulative process in which an item can fail only when the total amount of wear exceeds a prespecified failure level. This paper presents replacement policy in which an item is replaced at a certain level of wear before failure or at failure, whichever occurs first. Yet, when measuring the item wear level is very expensive, destructive or time-consuming, it may be economical to use substitutive characteristics that are correlated with the item wear level and relatively inexpensive to measure. The item's wear level could usually be estimated by monitoring such substitutive characteristics only except for a breakdown, which may be observed immediately at its occurrence. The purpose of this paper is to find an optimal periodic replacement policy based on such substitutive characteristics that balance the cost of replacement with the cost of failure and result in a minimum total long-run average cost per unit time. The optimal level of substitutive characteristics to replace the item is obtained. Numerical example illustrate how the model can be used to determine the optimal replacement policy.

Exposure of zinc samples in simulated acid rain solution (SARS) was investigated under a periodic wet-dry conditions using an AC impedance technique. The periodic wet and dry exposure consisted of the immersion of zinc samples in SARS for one hour followed by exposure to 7 hours drying at 60% RH. Phases of the corrosion products were indentified by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The influence of relative humdiity (RH), temperature, and surface inclination on the atmospheric corrosion of zinc is described. The reciprocal of polarization resistance (1/Rp) decreases rapidly during the initial stages then slowly and eventually attains a steady state as exposure time progresses. The average of reciprocal of polarization resistance per cycle, (ARPR) was calculated and found to decrease as number of exposure cycle increases. An increase of temperature enhances the corrsion rate of zinc. The values of ARPR, of a sample inclined at 30 o are lower than those for a sample oriented horizontally. The experiment result shows a pronounced dependence of reciprocal of polarization resistance on RH. Exposure in the presence of carbonate anions gives rise to more protective corrosion products than in nitrate anion solution. The corrosion mechanism during the initial stages of atmospheric zinc corrosion under wet-dry cyclic conditions is suggested.

본 논문에서는 센서 노드들이 트리(tree) 구조를 가지며 주기적인 트래픽을 전송하는 무선센서 네트워크에서 싱크 노드로 데이터를 효율적으로 전송하기 위한 스케줄링 알고리즘을 치안한다. 관련 연구[1]에서는 주기적인 트래픽을 효율적으로 전송하는 알고리즘을 제안하였으나, 트리구조가 깊어지고, 자식 노드들이 많아짐에 따라 에너지 소모가 증가하고, 데이터 처리율이 떨어지는 문제점을 보였다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 유휴 타임 슬롯(Time Slot)을 활용하고, 데이터를 중복되지 않게 전송함으로 효율적인 모니터링을 가능케 한다. 또한 유사 데이터에 대한 효율적인 전송 방안 및 긴급 데이터가 발생할 경우 EDP(Emergency Data Period)를 추가하여 전송대기시간을 줄이게 하는 방법도 제안하고자 한다. 성능 분석을 통하여 제안하는 알고리즘이 기존연구보다 더 높은 데이터 처리율을 보이고, 에너지 소모를 적게 함을 보였다.
