In this study, we determined the optimum electrode pair for measuring the abdominal pressure using bio-impedance method. Because impedance changes differ from a weight, a height, contractile force, volume of muscle and blood other or whatever of individuals, it was quantified using values of impedance change, correlation coefficient and SNR. Our results showed the optimum electrode pair (1, 9) which could detect impedance changes due to an increase of the intensity of the abdominal pressure. The correlation coefficient and quadratic function between the RMS values of EMG and the impedance changes were 0.87 and $y=0.0014x^2$+0.0620x+0.6958, respectively. It demonstrated that the abdominal pressure could be measured non-invasively and simply using bio-impedance method. We propose that this optimum electrode configuration would be useful for future studies involving the convenient measurement of abdominal pressure by ambulatory urodynamics monitoring study.

In this study it was adopted on sea dike monitoring that the safety monitoring with statistical limits which was adapted usually on safety monitoring by measuring pressures, stresses or deformations. And also the hydraulic head loss rate change according to passage of time was calculated for the purpose of safety monitoring. Safety monitoring by setting the statistical limit on the measured pore water pressure graphs need to be supplemented with an additional method of monitoring because the difference between the rise and fall of the tide was irregular. Safety monitoring by the limits set from values predicted by linear regression and standard errors on the hydraulic head loss graph was not affected by irregularity of tide. But if the condition of an embankment is changed gradually and slowly, it will not be detected on the hydraulic head loss graph. The graph of hydraulic head loss rate for every 24 hours vs date showed clearly that the sea water blocking state was getting better or not even though it was changed gradually and slowly.

본 논문에서는 MFC(Mass Flow Controller) 유닛으로부터 전송된 유체의 압력을 모니터하고 흐름 제어 기능을 수행하는 유체 유동 모니터링 시스템을 제안한다. 이 시스템은 MFC 유닛과 채널 디바이스, 모니터 및 관리 소프트웨어로 구성된다. MFC 유닛은 유체 압력 값을 측정하여 채널 디바이스로 전송하고, 채널 디바이스는 MFC 유닛과 모니터 및 관리 소프트웨어간의 입출력 인터페이스를 제공하는 기능을 한다. 모니터 및 관리 소프트웨어는 각 채널의 MFC 유닛에서 실시간으로 측정한 유체 압력 값을 모니터링하여 분석하고 제어한다. 이 소프트웨어는 20개의 채널과 0.1의 모니터링 주기로 구성하여 1초당 200개 즉, 1시간당 72만개의 데이터를 처리한다. 이때 입력 데이터 수의 증가에 따라 저장 공간도 비례하여 증가한다. 이러한 데이터 수의 증가와 저장 공간의 증가는 데이터 조회 성능을 저하시키기 때문에 데이터를 효율적으로 관리할 수 있는 변경값 감지 기법과 변경 범위 감지 기법으로 구현한다.

Even though the blood pressure is one of the most widely used index for the healthcare monitoring of hypertensive and normotensive persons, there is no non-intrusive measurement method which is commercialized until now. Pulse Arrival Time (PAT) is known that it has close relation with the systolic blood pressure (SBP) and arterial stiffness. In this study, SBP estimation methods by non-intrusive measurement of PAT are suggested. For the unconstrained measurement of PAT, the first method used the electrically non contact electrocardiogram (ENC-ECG) technique and the reflective type of Photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor on the computer mouse. In the second method, ENC-ECG and the air pressure sensor in the seat cushion on a chair were measured. The third method used ECG electrodes and PPG sensors on the toilet seat cover. The validation and regression analysis of the relationship of PAT and SBP are summarized. These methods have considerable errors to be used for all people. But these can be applied for each subject after the parameter customization within acceptable error. So, it is feasible for suggested methods to be used for monitoring of SBP in daily life in non-intrusive way when there is personal identification system of each subject.

차량의 각 타이어에 부착된 센서에서 압력과 온도 등을 측정하여 측정된 데이터를 차량의 무선 수신기에 전송하여 디스플레이에 타이어의 상태를 표시하는 TPMS(Tire Pressure Monitoring System)는 차량의 운행 또는 정지 중에 타이어의 상태를 수시로 점검하여 운전자에게 타이어 상태정보를 제공하는 안전보조 장치이다. TPMS는 각 타이어에서 측정되는 데이터를 전송하기위해 무선통신을 이용하는데, 정확한 데이터 전송을 방해하는 외부 전기 및 전자장치에 의한 간섭이 존재할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 정확한 데이터 전송에 영향을 주는 간섭을 제거하고 MVDR(Minimum-Variance Distortionless-Response) 보다 낮은 복잡도를 가지는 GSC(Generalized Sidelobe Canceler) 기반의 TPMS 간섭제거 방식을 제안한다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통하여 본 논문에서 제안된 간섭제거 기술의 성능을 확인한다.

In order to detect and suppress chatter in turning process, a stability control methodology was studied through manipulation of spindle speeds regarding to chatter frequencies, The chatter frequency was identified by monitoring and signal processing of sound pressure during turing on a lathe. The stability control methodology can select stable spindle speeds without knowing a prior knowledge of machine compliances and cutting dynamics. Reliability of the developed stability control methodology was verified through turing experiments on an engine lathe. Experimental results show that a microphone is an excellent sensor for chatter detection and control .

Self-sensing measurement of piezo inkjet and its application are discussed. The pressure wave inside the inkjet dispenser was measured by current measurement due to self-sensing capability of PZT. The pressure wave measured from current was verified by commercially available laser vibrometer. Here, two applications using self-sensing signal were discussed: waveform design for high speed jetting and condition monitoring. For waveform design, two pulse waveform was designed based on self-sensing signal such that the pressure wave after droplet formation can be minimized. For condition monitoring, self-sensing signal was shown to be effective in detecting air bubble trapped in inkjet printhead.

Urodynamics describes a collection of tests designed to evaluate lower urinary tract function and can be performed using retrograde filling of the bladder within a room. In this study, we designed and calibrated the potable urodynamics monitoring system using DSP chip (TMS320VC33, Texas Instrument$^{TM}$, U.S.) and collected pressure and EMG using calibration kit (DPT9022K0122, Medtronics$^{TM}$, U.S.). This system can make patients more comportable and monitor spontaneous urination during daily life.

A new concept design of electromagnetic energy harvester is proposed for powering a tire pressure monitoring sensor (TPMS). The thin coil strap is attached on the circumferential surface of a rim and a permanent magnet is placed on the brake caliper system. When the wheel rotates, the relative motion between the magnet and the coil generates electrical energy by electromagnetic induction. The generated energy is stored in a storage unit (rechargeable battery, capacitor) and used for TPMS operation and wireless signal transmission. Innovative layered design of the strap is provided for maximizing energy generation. Finite Element Method (FEM) and experiment results on the proposed design are compared to validate the proposed design; further, the method for design improvement is discussed. The proposed design is excellent in terms of durability and sustainability because it utilizes the everlasting rotary motion throughout the vehicle life and does not require material deformation.
