The tribological mechanism between the valve plate and the cylinder block in oil hydraulic axial piston pumps plays an important role on high power density. In this study, the fluid film thickness between the valve plate and the cylinder block was measured with discharge pressure and rotational speed by use of a gap sensor, and a slip ring system in the operating period. To investigate the effect of the valve plate shapes, we designed two valve plates with different shapes . the first valve plate was without a bearing pad, while the second valve plate had a bearing pad. It was found that both valve plates behaved differently with respect to the fluid film thickness characteristics. The leakage flow rates and the shaft torque were also experimented in order to clarify the performance difference between the valve plate without a bearing pad and the valve plate with a bearing pad. From the results of this study, we found out that in the oil hydraulic axial piston pumps, the valve plate with a bearing pad showed better film thickness contours than the valve plate without a bearing pad.

A computer code for Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) is developed to sense the cross sectional phase distribution of two-phase flow in the rectangular pipe in which the tomography sensor furnished by the insulated wall, electrodes, and electric field screen. The computer code had two steps for the image reconstruction. In the forward projection step, the sensitivity matrix was constructed based on the electric field calculated by the finite difference method. In the backward projection step, the sensitivity matrix and the measured capacitances were used to reconstruct the cross sectional image. Several algorithms including LBP, TR, ITR, and PLI were employed to find the proper one for the two-phase flow analysis. Since the dielectric constant of the water in two-phase flow is sensitive to the thermal parameter such as, temperature and pressure, the developed code was evaluated to find their accuracy, speed of calculation, and sensitivity to the variation of the dielectric constant. It was found that the iterative methods are superior to the direct methods for the image reconstruction, and the PLI method was the best in the variation of the dielectric constants.

This paper described the development of electrostatically driven peristaltic micropump. The proposed micropump consists of a flexible membrane and a single chamber which electrodes are inserted. The single chamber is divided into smaller cells by the electrodes. The fabricated micropump was operated with four electrodes in the membrane and a various phase sequencing actuation. We studied the changes in the flow rate corresponding to the actuating signal applied to the micropump under the zero hydraulic pressure difference between lnlet port and outlet port. The pump was operated from 60 to 130 V. Whereas the maximum flow rate in basic actuating signal is about 83 ${\mu}1/min$ at 15 Hz, the maximum flow rate in optimized actuating signal is about 114 ${\mu}l/min$ at 10 Hz.

Recently, interest in baseball has been increasing as the level of international baseball games, the popularity of domestic leagues, and the number of players entering the MLB has increased. In this paper, we propose a pitching system that can be applied to both professional and amateur baseball. The pitching system consists of a control module using MSB764T PLC, a pitching mechanism including AC motors and a ball feed rail, an HMI using the CHA-070WR model, inverter, etc. To pitch the breaking balls, the two AC motors each use an inverter to independently control the speed. The implemented pitching system was experimented on, investigating ball speed and ball movement according to RPM using the BUSHNELL Velocity Speed Gun. Experimental results on ball speed are similar to the theoretical data and the measured data. From the experimental data, it is confirmed that the damping coefficient value for the pitching ball is about 0.98. In the case of the breaking ball, the larger the difference between the speeds on the sides of the ball and the faster the ball speed, the larger the bending degree.

In the water-filling and preloading test, the sensing cables were installed on the surface of steel spiral case and in the surrounding concrete to monitor the strain distribution of several cross-sections by using Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analysis (BOTDA), a kind of distributed optical fiber sensing (DOFS) technology. The average hoop strain of the spiral case was about $330{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ and $590{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ when the water-filling pressure in the spiral case was 2.6 MPa and 4.1 MPa. The difference between the measured and the calculated strain was only about $50{\mu}{\varepsilon}$. It was the first time that the stress adjustment of the spiral case was monitored by the sensing cable when the pressure was increased to 1 MPa and the residual strain of $20{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ was obtained after preloading. Meanwhile, the shrinkage of $70{\sim}100{\mu}{\varepsilon}$ of the surrounding concrete was effectively monitored during the depressurization. It is estimated that the width of the gap between the steel spiral case and the surrounding concrete was 0.51 ~ 0.75 mm. BOTDA based distributed optical fiber sensing technology can obtain continuous strain of the structure and it is more reliable than traditional point sensor. The strain distribution obtained by BOTDA provides strong support for the design and optimization of the spiral case structure.

The pulse diagnosis is an important and universal method in Oriental medicine. Nevertheless, because of characteristic that depends on subjective sense of Oriental medicine doctor (OMD), it is not recognized by objective basis. The Korean Institute of Oriental Medicine(KIOM) and Daeyo Medi. Co. Ltd. developed the 3-D Mac using arrey piezoresistive sensors and multi-axial robot. 133 healthy subjects participated in this study, 75 males and 58 females, between 20 and 70 years of age. All subjects were relaxed in a supine position on a comfortable chair for twenty minutes before the measurement was taken. The measured position is the radial artery of subject's left wrist and the position is called Chon, Kwan and Chuck in Oriental medicine. To detect floating and sinking pulse, we established coefficient of floating and sinking(CFS). CFS means relative position of maximum pulse pressure in PH curve. The lower CFS value means that the pulse has floating tendency. There was significant diffence between CFS and diagnosis of floating-sinking pulse by OMD(p=0.020). CFS value of over 40's group was significantly larger than those of 20's and 30's(p=0.000). There was no significant difference between male and female(p=0.061).

Since the moisture content (MC) of growing medium closely related with the crop transpiration, the MC should be included to the environmental factors to be considered for irrigation control in soilless culture. The objective of this study was to analyze the transpiration of paprika plants using daily mean solar radiation (RAD) and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) as well as the growth of the plants at different MCs of rockwool growing media. The starting points of irrigation were controlled by a moisture sensor with minimum set points of 40%, 50%, and 60% of MCs. The canopy transpirations were measured for 80 to 120 days after transplanting and analyzed. The transpirations were well regressed with a combination of both RAD and VPD rather than daily mean RAD only under the controlled MCs. The transpiration at 60% MC was higher than those at 50% and 40% MCs. Leaf area, leaf fresh and dry weights at 60% MC were higher than those at 50% and 40% MCs while the number of leaves had no significant difference among the MCs. There were no significant differences in number of fruits and fruit size among all the MCs, while fruit weight was significantly lower at 40% MC than other treatments. Fresh and dry fruit yields were the highest at 60% MC. Therefore it was concluded that the transpiration was affected by the MC of rockwool growing medium and the minimum set point of 50-60% MC of rockwool growing medium gave better effects on the growth of the paprika plants.

필터의 손상 없이 포집할 수 있는 필터케이스를 적용하고, 전압 제어와 압력 제어를 각각 할 수 있는 펌프 방식의 eDNA 포집 및 채수 시스템을 개발하여 집수매거 취수원을 대상으로 종래의 진공압 방식의 포집 및 추출 실험과 eDNA 농도를 비교함으로써 개발 시스템의 필터링 성능을 평가하였다. 개발된 시스템은 전압제어(Manual pump system) 방식과 압력제어(Automatic pump system) 방식으로 구분하여 필터링 시 필터기 내부 압력을 측정하고 각 시스템의 압력 변화를 비교하였다. 전압제어 방식은 필터링 초기에 65 [KPa]로 시작하여 필터링 시간이 경과함에 따라 필터에 축적되는 여과물의 양이 증가하므로 압력이 점진적으로 증가하였다. 압력제어 방식은 설계된 알고리즘에 따라 일정 압력을 유지하도록 제어한 결과, 압력 센서의 피드백 시간에 따라 필터링 과정에서 압력 변동의 폭은 차이가 있으나 목표 압력에 수렴하는 것을 확인하였다. 개발된 시스템의 필터링 성능을 확인하기 위해 eDNA 농도를 측정하고 전압제어 방식과 압력제어 방식을 대조군과 비교하였다. 전압제어 방식은 대조군과 유사한 결과를 얻을 수 있었으나 압력제어 방식은 대조군에 비해 낮게 나타났다. 압력제어 방식의 경우 필터링 시 압력 편차가 크고, 필터링 과정에서 일정한 압력을 유지하기 때문에 나타난 결과로 사료된다. 따라서 필터링 시에는 일정한 압력을 유지하는 것보다 필터링 시간 경과와 함께 여과물의 증가에 따라 압력이 점진적으로 증가하는 전압제어 방식이 eDNA를 포집하는데 적합함을 확인하였다. 정수역과 유수역의 eDNA 평균농도를 대조군으로 비교한 결과, 각각 96.2 [ng µL^-1], 88.4 [ng µL^-1]로 나타났으며, 펌프 방식으로 eDNA 평균농도를 비교한 결과는 각각 90.7 [ng µL^-1], 74.8 [ng µL^-1]로 정수역에서 필터링한 시료에서 높게 나타났다. 정수역에서 eDNA 농도가 높게 나타난 것은 잔존하는 eDNA를 비롯한 미세 유기물의 영향으로 사료된다.
