This paper introduces the results of the development of a new mobile Digital DC-arc Welding Machine (DDWM). A simple PI controller is applied to the DDWM to control the output welding current tracking the constant setting current. Furthermore, a hot-start function, an anti-stuck function, a standby mode and an intelligential circuit breaker (ICB) are included in the DDWM. The DDWM increases welding quality and saves more power energy than a conventional welding machine. Because the DDWM is changed from ready mode into the standby mode automatically after 2 minutes interval from this unload start. Then the DDWM is changed into ready mode automatically since it is reused to weld. Mover, the DDWM increases welding qualify, productivity and reduces costs of welding. So, the DDWM can have a great of contribution to the mobile welding industries. The effectiveness of the DDWM was proven by the experimental results and durable test.

KARI is achieving the KSLV program according to National Space Technology Development Program. In this paper, the authors are intended to introduce the Integrated Power Plant (abb. IPP) test facility which will be constructed for the variety of tests on KSLV program. IPP test facility refers to comprehensive testing equipment for liquid rocket launch vehicle. Using this facility, KARl can verify the adaptiveness of parts and subsystems for launch vehicle and finally can qualify the system characteristics of launch vehicle doing kinds of test including hot firing test. Using this facility, KARI can simulate the vehicle launching circumstances and it make to predict the performance of launch vehicle when its flight test.

In this paper, a grid-interactive photovoltaic (PV) system with the function of the power quality improvement is presented. The proposed system requires only one current-controlled voltage source inverter, which control the current flow at low total harmonic distortion and unity power factor, as well as simultaneously provide reactive power support. The proposed system operation has been divided into two modes (sunny and night). In night mode, the system operates to compensate the reactive power demanded by nonlinear or variation in loads. In sunny mode, the system performs power quality control (PQC) to reduce harmonic current and to improve power factor as well as maximum power point tracking (MPPT) to supply active power from the PV arrays, simultaneously. To verify the proposed system a comprehensive evaluation included simulation and experimental results are presented.

With proliferation of computer and wireless network technology, it is common to access Internet through wireless network using mobile device. Ratio of using streaming media out of many applications through Internet is increasing not only in wired network but also in wireless network. Streaming media is much bigger than other contents and requires more network bandwidth and more computing resources. However mobile devices hate relatively poor computing resource and low network bandwidth. If media streaming service is provided for mobile devices without any consideration about network bandwidth and computing power, it is hard for the client to get high qualify service. Since mobile device is supported with very limited energy from the battery, media streaming should be adjusted to varying energy state of mobile device in realtime to ensure complete playback of streaming media. In this paper, we propose DFRC to provide high qualify service to mobile client through wireless network by controlling the number of frames transmitted to client based on computing resource and energy state of mobile device.

The precise measurement of ultrasonic power is important to the qualify assurance and the safety of medical ultrasonic equipments In the Present work, a brier theory was introduced to determine the ultrasonic Power from the time valving balance-indication due to the radiation force acting on an absorbing target and/or other causes such as buoyancy during the repetition of on/off behavior of ultrasonic irradiation. The developed automated system measuring the ultrasonic power was described in detail with the precise mechanical alignment tool , the electric signal generation network, the control and measurement network and the appropriate procedure. The ultrasonic power measured by the developed system was compared to the reference data calibrated by the other national metrology institute at 1 MHz, 5 MHz, 10 MHz, and 15 MHz over the range 10 mW to 10 W. Their relative differences are within $5\%$.

Competitive power in manufacturing industries mainly depends on production time and qualify of products. The main issue for achieving this goal is to build high speed and super accuracy machine. The machine has been developed in the aspect of hardware. However, applications in high speed machining is not sufficient to give solutions to industries in machining. This research presents a method to improve surface roughness adopting experimental design. This research finds experimental factors which have great impact on surface roughness. From the experiments cutting conditions are found for better quality of machining.

Korean construction companies are now in very difficult situation due to the recent construction accident, opening of domestic market, the advent of boundless competition period in WTO, etc .Introduction of quality management system is quite urgent in order to strengthen our international competitiveness through the superiority of quality and foster the long term growth of organization. Substantially, many companies are proceeding with or completed the introduction of quality management system but small and medium sized construction companies have difficulties due to lack of money and man power. In this paper, five stage procedures, which can be efficiently applied to introduction and operation of qualify management system, have been suggested to help the minor construction companies which want to adopt the quality management system. This study is considered to be helpful for the companies which will introduce quality management system.

As dispersed generators was driven in condition interconnecting with utility, it could cause a variety of new effects to the original distribution system that was running as considered only the one-way power flow. Therefore, the protection devices that is builted in distribution system should be designed to be able to operate with disposing of not only a fault of the generator, but also utility condition. Especially, the fault of the feeder interconnected with Dispersed Generator can cause the islanding phenomenon of open DG(Dispersed Generators). This phenomenon has many problems such as a machinery damage, electricity qualify degradation and a difficulty of the system recovery. In the fault therefore, we must separate Dispersed Generator from the system quickly. In this paper, for the fault classification of the interconnected DG and the outside feeder we judge the fault of the interconnected DG and the outside feeder in HMI through data provided by IED(Intelligent Electronic Device) on the network and decide whether it operates or not by sending the result to each relay.

Gears are essential elements for mechanical power transmission. Geometric precision is the main factor for characterizing gear grade and qualify. Gear pitch is one of the crucial measurements, which is defined as a distance between two adjacent gear teeth. It is well-known that variability in gear pitches may causes wear-out and vibration noise. Therefore maintaining pitch errors at a low level plays a key role in assuring the gear quality to customers. This paper is concerned with a case study, which presents a computerized system for Inspecting pitch errors in a gear machining process. This system consists of a PC and window-based programs. Although the start and stop is manually accomplished, the process of measuring and analyzing pitch data is automatically conducted in this system. Our purpose lies in reducing inspection cost and time as well as Increasing test reliability. Its operation is briefly illustrated by example. Sometimes a strong autocorrelation is observed from pitch data. We also discuss a process monitoring scheme taking account of autocorrelations.
