본 논문에서는 null-seeking method를 사용하여 서보형 받음각 센서를 설계하고 그것의 특징을 분석하였다. Null-seeking method는 측정부의 두 압력 홀에서 측정되는 압력 차이가 0이 되도록 회전한 측정부의 동체 기준선에 대한 회전각으로 받음각을 측정한다. 이 방법은 측정 전 범위에서 높은 정확도와 일정한 오차를 가진다. 그러므로 이러한 종류의 받음각 센서는 무인항공기에 적합하다. 이 논문에서 개발될 받음각 센서의 요구사항을 분석하여, 서보형 받음각 센서를 설계 가공하였다. 그 후 받음각 센서에 탑재할 받음각 계산 알고리즘을 개발하였으며, 끝으로 MATLAB Simulink와 풍동시험을 통해 개발된 받음각 센서의 특성을 검증하였다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect that difference in forefoot of shoe flexibility during the quick lunge from a jump smashing on the lower limbs and the plantar pressure distribution. For this 10 elite badminton players with over 10 years experience and right handed participated. Two kinds of badminton shoes were selected and tested mechanical testing for the forefoot flexibility. Motion analysis, ground reaction forces and plantar pressure distribution were recorded. It was required to conduct lunge movement after jumping smashing as possible as high. Photo sensor was located in 3 meter away from standing position and its height was 40 cm. Subjects were conducted to return original position after touching the sensor as under clear movement as possible as fast. Forefoot stiffness had an effect on shoe peak bending degree and peak bending angular velocity in propulsion phase. Forefoot flexibility had an effect on ankle plantar flexion and knee flexion moment. It appears that joint power on lower limb and peak plantar pressure were not influenced by the flexibility of shoes.

In this paper, we propose a new method to infiltrate $Fe_3O_4$-nanoparticles into a porous silicon film and a monitoring technique to detect packing density of nanoparticles within the film. Recently, research to use porous silicon as a drug carrier or a new functional sensor material by infiltrating $Fe_3O_4$-nanoparticles has been extensively performed. However, it is still necessary to enhance the packing density and to develop a monitoring technique to detect the packing density in real time. In this light, we forcibly injected a nanoparticle solution into a rugate-structured free-standing porous silicon (FPS) film by applying a pressure difference between the two sides of the film. We found that the packing density by the pressure-infiltration method proposed in this paper is enhanced, relative to that by the previous diffusion method. Moreover, a continuous shift in wavelength of the rugate reflectance peak measured from the film surface was observed while the nanoparticle solution was being injected. By exploiting this phenomenon, we could qualitatively monitor the packing density of $Fe_3O_4$-nanoparticles within the FPS film with the injection volume of the nanoparticle solution.

Purpose: This research investigated falls due to obstacles that occur among elderly people by assessing changes in the values of plantar foot force, peak force, and plantar foot pressure in elderly subjects while they were stepping over obstacles of different heights. Methods: The subjects were 20 elderly people aged 70-80 years; Pressure was measured on flat ground(0 cm), and after installing obstacles of 8 cm and 12 cm using the F-scan system, which is a resistance-type pressure sensor. A one-way analysis of variance was performed to compare pressure on each part of the foot according to various heights after collecting data using the Tekscan program. The least significant difference test was used for the post-hoc analysis, A p-value <0.05 was considered significant. Results: The force value for the toe area (parts 1, and 2) and contact pressure increased significantly with the 12 cm obstacle (p<0.05). The peak force value and the peak contact pressure for part 1 increased significantly with the 12 cm obstacle (p<0.05). Conclusion: Larger changes appeared in the functions and structure of the foot while subjects walked over obstacles of different heights compared to flatland walking. This result suggests that people have safety strategies to prevent falls, and that there is a need for a more realistic approach through practice to overcome obstacles of various heights to prevent falls.

요즘은 건강을 위한 스마트 헬스 케어 웨어러블의 개발이 가속화되는 시대이다. 그 중 활발한 연구 분야 중 하나인 EMS 전기자극을 활용한 웨어러블 제품이 많이 출시되었다. 하지만 연구되거나 출시되어있는 EMS 웨어러블은 근육의 세분화에 집중하지 못한 포괄적인 전신 슈트나 복부 전체를 덮는 벨트 형식으로 출시되어있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 특정 근육을 세분화시킨 EMS 패턴을 적용하고 복압 벨트에 호흡을 측정할 수 있는 스트레치 센서를 부착하여 두 가지 호흡법을 활용해 연구를 진행하고자 한다. 측정방법은 들숨과 날숨으로 실험을 진행하며 대상자는 건강한 신체의 20대 남성 10명을 대상으로 진행했다. 본 연구의 결과 흉식호흡과 복식호흡 모두 센서의 민감도는 5mm, 3mm, 기본 센서 순으로 센서별 순위 결과를 확인할 수 있었고 EMS 복압 벨트를 통해 전기자극을 적용 전, 후로 나누었을 때 전기자극을 적용한 후 호흡의 활성화가 향상되었음을 알 수 있었다. 연구의 결론은 2가지 호흡법을 신체 기능적 근거로 제작한 2가지 패턴으로 인해 호흡법에 적합한 전기자극을 적용 시 적용하지 않았을 때 보다 3가지 센서로 호흡 활성화 효과와 센서 간 민감도 차이를 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과를 기반으로 후속 연구에서는 EMS 패턴과 스트레치 센서가 통합된 의복형 웨어러블 제품에 실시간 모니터링이 가능한 호흡 스마트 의류를 개발하고자 한다.

The Korea Research Institute of Ships and Ocean Engineering (KRISO) has developed a test module that can vertically ascend and descend with a buoyancy engine to verify the performance of the developed buoyancy engine. The independent test module has been tested in the Ocean Engineering Basin(C.M.Lee et al., 2023). After that, more tests were performed in the Deep Ocean Engineering Basin and at sea. In the 50-meter depth pit test of the Deep Ocean Engineering Basin, there were no problems with the ascent and descent operations, but the buoyancy engine was not properly maintained due to various problems in the independent test module, resulting in a difference between the calculated results using the solution of the equations of motion and the actual measurement results. The East Sea test was conducted at a depth of approximately 110 meters north-east of Pohang, with a dive to 100 meters. The difference between the pressure sensor value and the calculated value was observed, but after checking the results of the underwater position tracking device(USBL, Ultra Short Base Line system), it was estimated that the difference was caused by the influence of the current.

가변 광 감쇄기에 사용한 굽힘에 민감한 특수 광섬유 (BSF: bending-sensitive fiber)를 이용하여 굽힘에 따라 물리적인 변화를 감지해 내는 광섬유 센서(FOS: fiber-optic sensor)를 제작하였다. BSF를 이용한 FOS의 제작 가능성을 알아보기 위해 BSF의 굽힘 손실을 3차원 유한차분 빔 전파기법을 이용하여 전산모의 하였고 전산모의 결과를 실제 제작된 BSF를 이용한 FOS의 실험 결과와 비교하였다. 특히 제작된 FOS는 센서 상층부에 가해진 압력이 0 MPa에서 0.005 MPa 로 변할 때 광 에너지는 -1 dB에서 -20 dB 까지 감쇄하였다. 반면에 단일모드 광섬유(SMF: single mode fiber)를 이용하여 동일한 구조로 제작된 FOS는 광 에너지의 변화를 보이지 않았다.

초음파 센서를 이용한 호흡측정방식은 관성 및 압력의 오차의 영향을 거의 받지 않고, 반영구적으로 사용이 가능한 호흡기기이다. 초음파의 특성을 이용한 것으로 송수신시 초음파의 매질인 공기의 흐름에 의한 반송형식인 초음파의 전달속도 차이를 이용하여 호흡량 및 흐름을 detecting하는 기술이다. 본 논문에서는 환자를 중심으로 측정이 이루어져야 하기 때문에 센서의 송수신시 일어나는 신호의 sensitivity를 향상시켜서 약한 호흡에도 dectection이 가능하도록 시스템의 성능을 향상시켰다.

Pulse feeling is one of the most important diagnosis method in Oriental medicine. But it is not easy to make an objective and standardized diagnosis. In this study, we found how to quantify diagnosis. Specially dally the high practicality in clinic, we search some parameters especially well-related to floating and sinking pulse by statistic analysis. By extension, we find the pulse patterns of the floating and sinking pulse. We choose 15 subjects diagnosed as floating pulse and 15 subjects diagnosed as sinking pulse by oriental doctors. And their pulse signals were acquired by Pulse analyzer which has piezoresistive pressure sensor. For the quantification of the floating and sinking pulse, at first, we examined the parameters which were highly correlated with oriental doctor's diagnosis. And then we derived pulse patterns of the floating-sinking pulse from preprocessed signal and its ensemble average. We also looked trend variation (PH-Curve) between contact and pulse pressure. As a result, statistically there is the biggest difference between contact pressure, the maximum pulse pressure, diastolic area (Ad) and floating and sinking data. Through the PH-Curve, which represented the relationship between contact and pulse pressure, we could divide the floating and sinking pulse clearly. As a basic research of pulse diagnosis algorithm, we can contribute to select essential parameters in diagnosis algorithm And using these diagnosis method, we expect to find typical pulse patterns and some useful parameters about other pulses like slow/rapid, large/fine pulse and so on. We hope that this study will contribute pulse objectification.

This paper focuses on the improvement of the influence coefficient matrix method for estimation of local ice load on the icebreaking research vessel ARAON. The influence coefficient matrix relates ice pressure on the hull plate to the measured/calculated hull strain/stress. Conventionally von Mises equivalent stresses representing hull stresses and ice pressure acting on the hull plate are utilized to assemble the influence coefficient matrix. Because of the three dimensional features of the ship-ice collision process, an enhanced method to assemble the influence coefficient matrix is derived considering ice loads in the X, Y, and Z direction simultaneously. Furthermore the location of ice loads acting on hull-plate may fall outside the measuring sensor area, and the enhanced influence coefficient matrix is modified to reduce the difference between the actual and the estimated ice loads by expanding the domain outward from the sensor area. The developed method for enhanced influence coefficient matrix is applied to IBRV ARAON during the 2019 Antarctic ice field test and the local ice loads in three directions are efficiently calculated compared to those by a conventional method.
