  • To apply induction hardening method to a press die having 3-D free surface, the induction hardening tool moves on a press die above 1~2mm gap with constant velocity. Since the induction hardening process requires its own hardening path for each die, a direct teaching method which generates working path directly guided by operators is more suitable than an offline method using CAD/CAM data. The direct teaching apparatus in this work includes a teaching tool with a force/torque sensor and data processing computer to finally generate robot's Induction hardening program , in direct teaching operation, an operator teaches working path maintaining contact with surface of press die by holding...

  • In this study, a novel method for sweeping automatic linearization of wavelength swept laser is proposed. Through the test performed on the implemented laser, the linear sweeping is held up well with a 97% decrease in nonlinearity, and 60 nm sweeping range, 1 kHz sweeping frequency, and 8.8 mW average optical power were obtained. The proposed method uses fiber Bragg grating array, optical-electronic conversion circuit, FPGA embedded module, and a LabVIEW program to generate new compensated wave patterns which were applied to the fiber Fabry-Perot tunable filter. Linear sweeping can reduce the cumbersome and time-consuming recalibration process required for nonlinear sweeping. Additionally, the proposed method provides more accurate measurement results for the structure safety monitoring system.

  • This paper describes the fault detection and failsafe logic to be used in the Electronic Stability Program (ESP). The Aim of this paper is prevention of erroneous control in the ESP. This paper introduces the fault detection logic and evaluation of residual signals. Failsafe logic consist of four redundant sub-models and they can be used for the detection of faults in each sensor (yaw rate, lateral acceleration, steering wheel angle). We presents two mathematical residual generation method ; one is the method by the average value, and the other is the method by the minimum value of the each residual. We verify a failsafe logic using vehicle test results, also we compare vehicle model based simulation results with test vehicle results.

  • This paper reports a new fabrication method of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) microlenses with various curvatures by using a water-based mold. The hydrophobic surface of Polypropylene (PP) substrate was modified by corona discharge using tesla coil to have hydrophilic surface. Then hydrophilic surface of PP substrate takes hydrophobic recovery to have various contact angles from less than $25^{\circ}$ to about $84^{\circ}$. By using the water droplets with various contact angles as replica molds for PDMS process, we could obtain PDMS microlenses with various curvatures.

  • The moisture content of crude oil notably affects various aspects of oil production, storage, transportation, and exploration. However, accurately measuring this moisture content is challenging because of numerous influencing factors, leading to a lack of precision in existing detection methods. This inadequacy hinders the progress of China's petroleum industry. To overcome these challenges, this paper proposes a conductivity-based method for measuring crude oil moisture content. By employing an embedded system, we designed a sensor comprising five electrodes. Additionally, we developed signal excitation and signal processing circuits. Moreover, a software program was designed to analyze and compute the output signal using fast Fourier transform operations. This facilitated the identification of flow patterns, computation of relevant flow rates, and establishment of correlation rates based on frequency spectral characteristics. Based on experimental results, we established a functional relationship between measurement parameters and crude oil moisture content. This study enhanced the precision of moisture content measurement, thereby addressing existing limitations and fostering the advancement of China's petroleum industry.

  • Objective: This study aimed to analyze how the upright body type exercise program affected body balance and record of archers. This study aimed to prove the effectiveness of upright body type exercise, on this basis, in enhancing the performance of archery players. Method: A total of 14 archers (7 men and 7 women) in B Metropolitan City who had ${\geq}4years$ of career in archery and were given explanation of its contents and purpose before giving spontaneous consent to the experiment were enrolled in the study. The upright body type exercise program was implemented thrice a week for 12 weeks, with higher exercise intensity with time. A resistive pressure sensor, Gaitview AFA-50, was used to measure the foot plantar pressure distribution and analyze quantitative information concerning variation in posture stability and weight shift in dynamic balance of foot plantar pressure in shooting and static balance of plantar pressure with the eyes open and closed and the change in archery record accompanying the change in body balance. Results: As for the differences in foot plantar pressure between before and after participation in the upright body type exercise program, there was no significant difference in static balance of foot plantar pressure with the eyes open, and there was statistically significant difference at the ${\alpha}=.05$ significance level in static balance of foot plantar pressure with the eyes closed or in dynamic balance of foot plantar pressure in shooting. There was statistically significant difference at the ${\alpha}=.05$ significance level in archery record. Conclusion: The upright body type exercise program had positive effects on static and dynamic balance of foot plantar pressure by allowing archers to experience less body sway and physical imbalance in shooting with closed eyes and positive effects on archery record. Thus, the program is expected to help archers correct their posture and perform better.

  • This study proposes an approach for simulating high spatial resolution satellite images acquired under arbitrary sun-sensor geometry using existing images and 3D (three-dimensional) data. First, satellite images, having significant differences in spectral regions compared with those in the simulated image were transformed to the same spectral regions as those in simulated image by using the UPDM (Universal Pattern Decomposition Method). Simultaneously, shadows cast by buildings or high features under the new sun position were modeled. Then, pixels that changed from shadow into non-shadow areas and vice versa were simulated on the basis of existing images. Finally, buildings that were viewed under the new sensor position were modeled on the basis of open library-based 3D reconstruction program. An experiment was conducted to simulate WV-3 (WorldView-3) images acquired under two different sun-sensor geometries based on a Pleiades 1A image, an additional WV-3 image, a Landsat image, and 3D building models. The results show that the shapes of the buildings were modeled effectively, although some problems were noted in the simulation of pixels changing from shadows cast by buildings into non-shadow. Additionally, the mean reflectance of the simulated image was quite similar to that of actual images in vegetation and water areas. However, significant gaps between the mean reflectance of simulated and actual images in soil and road areas were noted, which could be attributed to differences in the moisture content.

  • Quality control of Argo(Array for Real-time Geostrophic Oceanography) data is crucial by reason that salinity measurements are liable to experience some drift and offset due to biofouling, contamination of sensor and wash-out of biocide. The automated Argo real-time quality control has a limit of sorting data quality, so that WJO program is adopted as standardized method of Argo delayed mode quality control (DMQc) in the world that is a precise quality control method. We conducted DMQC on pressure, temperature and salinity measured by Argo floats in the Pacific Ocean including expert evaluation. Particularly, salinity data were corrected using WJO program. 4 salinity profiles of Argo delayed mode were compared with nearby in situ CTD data and other Argo data in deep layer where oceanographic conditions are stable in time and space. The differences of both salinities were lower than target accuracy of Argo. As compared with the difference of salinities before DMQC, those after DMQC decreased by 60-80 percent. Quality of delayed mode salinity data seemed to be improved correcting salinity data suggested by WJO program.

  • Adaptive arrays can minimize contributions from interferences incident onto an sensor array while preserving a signal the direction vector of which corresponds to the array steering vector to within a scalar factor. If there exist errors in the steering vector, severe performance degradation can be caused since the desired signal is misunderstood as an interference by the array. This paper presents an adaptive beamforming method which is robust against steering vector errors, exploiting a range of the desired signal direction. In the presented method, an correlation matrix of array response vectors is obtained through integration over the direction range and a minimization problem is formulated using some eigenvectors of the correlation matrix such that a more accurate steering vector than initially given one can be found. The minimization problem is transformed into a relaxed SDP (semidefinite program) problem, which can be effectively solved since it is a sort of convex optimization. Simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms existing ones such as ORM (outside-range-based method) and USM (uncertainty-based method).
