This paper presents a multistage in-flight alignment (MIFA) method for a strapdown inertial navigation system (SDINS) suitable for moving vehicles with no initial attitude references. A SDINS mounted on a moving vehicle frequently loses attitude information for many reasons, and it makes solving navigation equations impossible because the true motion is coupled with an undefined vehicle attitude. To determine the attitude in such a situation, MIFA consists of three stages: a coarse horizontal attitude, coarse heading, and fine attitude with adaptive Kalman navigation filter (AKNF) in order. In the coarse horizontal alignment, the pitch and roll are coarsely estimated from the second order damping loop with an input of acceleration differences between the SDINS and GPS. To enhance estimation accuracy, the acceleration is smoothed by a scalar filter to reflect the true dynamics of a vehicle, and the effects of the scalar filter gains are analyzed. Then the coarse heading is determined from the GPS tracking angle and yaw increment of the SDINS. The attitude from these two stages is fed back to the initial values of the AKNF. To reduce the estimated bias errors of inertial sensors, special emphasis is given to the timing synchronization effects for the measurement of AKNF. With various real flight tests using an UH60 helicopter, it is proved that MIFA provides a dramatic position error improvement compared to the conventional gyro compass alignment.

This paper describes the design and characteristic analysis of a novel 3-DOF(Degree of Freedom) spherical motor. For multi DOF actuating, several numbers of motors have been used. By the using of normal motors they connected each other in single joint, is necessary to a several type of complex power transmission devices. The 3-DOF spherical motor can drive roll, pitch, and yaw motion in only one unit and it is not necessary to use additional gears and links parts. Therefore the using of 3-DOF spherical motor can eliminate; combined effects of inertia, backlash, non-linear friction, and elastic deformation of gears. In this paper, we propose the novel structured 3-DOF spherical motor and derive its principles of operation. Firstly, we designed concept model of novel structured 3-DOF spherical motor. Next, we derive the control method by calculating the currents. Also, to have intuitive driving control, we express the rotor position in equivalent angle-axis system and determine the exciting period of currents from the calculation result of the currents. To verify the control method, we calculated the currents by the position of rotor. and then we analyzed the characteristics by 3D Finite Element Method when the calculated currents are excited.

An upper bound solution is obtained to perform the process analysis of hot strip rolling process. The material flows within the roll bite at various geometries and frictional conditions are obtained from finite element analysis and the typical flow pattern which is necessary to determine the kinematically admissible velocity field is assumed. From the kinematically admissible velocity field, the upper bound energy is calculated and the rolling load, angle of neutral point and forward slip ratio at various operational conditions are obtained from upper bound energy. The process analysis of above mentioned parameters at various operational conditions have provided valuable information which is hard to obtain during rolling operation and the predicted ranges of quantitive values from these analyses lie whthin the bound of actual operational data.

In this study, approached to improve durability of the multi-functional nano-pattern fabricated on the curved lens surface using nanoimprint lithography (NIL) was proposed, and the effects of the proposed methods on functionality after wear test were examined. To improve the mechanical property of ultraviolet(UV)-curable resin, UV-NIL was conducted at the elevated temperature around $60^{\circ}C$. In addition, micro/nano hierarchical structures was fabricated on the lens surface with a durable film mold. Analysis on the worn surfaces of nano-hole pattern and hierarchical structures and measurements on the static water contact angle and critical water volume for roll-off indicated that the UV curing process with elevated temperature is effective to maintain wettability by increasing hardness of resin. Also, it was found that the micro-scale pattern is effective to protect nano-pattern from damage during wear test.

Predicting ship manoeuvrability is attracting widespread interest in the field of analyzing maritime accident to simulate a highly accurate track of a ship in abnormal accident situations. This study investigated the manoeuvrability of a ship in abnormally heeled condition. Free Running Model Tests (FRMT) with 1/65.83 scaled KCS (KRISO container ship) were conducted in three heeled conditions; $35^{\circ}$ turning circle tests and 20/20 zigzag manoeuvring tests were conducted in $0^{\circ}$, $-10^{\circ}$, and $-20^{\circ}$ conditions. The test results showed that the heeled to port condition significantly affected starboard turning and zigzag characteristics; the tactical diameters in the turning circle tests decreased, and the first overshoot angles in the zigzag tests increased when the ship was in the larger heeled condition. These results indicate that the roll angle of the ship considerably affects yaw rate and speed decrease of the ship. The turning and zigzag indices from trajectory and navigation data in the study were provided for benchmark data sets.

In this study, hull dimensions of an FPSO were optimized to maximize its operability at Brazil field. In contrast with the previous works which have used simplified models to evaluate some indicators related to stability and hydrodynamic performances of FPSOs for its own optimal design, we developed a generic hull and compartment modeler and sophisticated stability and hydrodynamic calculation modules. With the aid of the developed tools, the hull optimization was performed with initial dimensions of an FPSO originally designed for west Africa field. The optimization results indicated the relative importance of hydrodynamic performances compared with stability performances for the FPSO hull dimensioning by showing that there were 3 active constraints related to them, which were the natural periods of heave and roll and the maximum pitch angle under 1-year return period waves at full load condition. To the author's knowledge, this study is the first attempt to combine altogether the hull and compartment modeling and full set of stability and hydrodynamic calculations precisely to optimize an FPSO's hull dimensions within 30 min. Also, it is worthwhile to mention that the developed methods are generic enough to be applied to all types of ship-shaped offshore platforms.

We experimentally investigate the high-Reynolds flow around a rectangular cylinder of aspect ratio 5:1. This configuration is the object of the international BARC benchmark. Wind tunnel tests have been carried out for the flow at zero angle of attack and a Reynolds number, based on the crossflow cylinder length and on the freestream velocity, equal, to 40 000. Velocity measurements are obtained by using hot-wire anemometry along 50 different cross-flow traverses on the cylinder side and in the near wake. Differential pressure measurements are acquired on multiple streamwise sections of the model. The obtained measurements are in a good agreement with the state-of-the-art experiments. For the first time among the several contributions to the BARC benchmark, detailed flow measurements are acquired in the region near the cylinder side and in the near-wake flow. The edges and the thickness of the shear layers detaching from the upstream edges are derived from velocity measurements. Furthermore, we compute the flow frequencies characterizing the roll-up of the shear layers, the evolution of vortical structures near the cylinder side and the vortex shedding in the wake.

전주(Electric Pole)는 전력 송/배전에 사용되는 지지물로 외력 측정을 위해 가속도 센서가 이용된다. 기상현상은 전주의 외력에 다양한 영향을 미친다. 가공전선의 탄성변화가 그중 하나이다. 이러한 이유로 전주에 미치는 기상현상 요인을 모델링 하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 가속도 센서로부터 수신된 데이터는 피치(Pitch)와 롤(Roll) 각도로 변환되어 수신된다. 기상 현상은 변수간 상관관계가 높게 나타나며, 모델링을 위해 유의한 설명변수를 선택하는 것은 과대적합(Over Fitting)의 문제에서 매우 중요한 요소이다. 다중공선성(Multicollinearity)을 고려한 설명력이 높은 모델 구축을 위해 기계학습 방법의 하나인 일반화 가법 모형(Generalized Additive Model)을 사용했다. 모델 구축에 사용된 기상 요인 변수는 온도, 습도, 강수량, 풍속, 풍향, 증기압, 대기압, 노점온도, 일조시간, 일사량, 운량이다. 분산 팽창 요인 검증을 수행한 결과 온도, 강수량, 풍속, 풍향, 대기압, 노점온도, 일조시간, 운량의 변수가 선택됐다. 설명변수중 일조시간, 운량, 대기압의 영향도가 높게 나타났으며, 일반화 가법 모형의 평균 결정계수(R-Squared)는 0.69로 유의한 모델을 구축했다. 구축된 모델은 전주 외력의 영향을 예측하는데 도움이 될 수 있을 것이며, 안전성 확보의 목적에 기여할 수 있을 것이라 생각한다.

유도형 탄약은 비행속도 증가를 이용한 기존의 사거리 증가 방식과 다르게 정밀 유도제어를 사거리 연장 및 정밀 타격하는 기술을 기반으로 한다. 고회전으로 상승하는 탄은 탄도 정점에서 후미 날개를 전개하여 회전을 감소하고, 최종적으로 회전을 제거한 후 비행하게 된다. 주 날개 전개 전 탄체 뒤집힘 감지를 위하여 자세 추정이 요구되는데, 회전 감속 중에서는 일정한 회전을 가정한 기존의 유도무기 자세 추정 기법을 사용할 수 없다. 또한, 비행 시에는 횡축 가속도를 제어하기 때문에 중력 가속도 성분을 기반으로 하는 일반적인 무인기의 자세 추정 기법은 큰 오차를 발생한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 저속 회전 및 비행 중 자세추정기법을 제시하고, 무인기에 탑재하여 비행 실험을 통해 검증하였다. 저속 회전 중 자세 추정 기법은 롤 각을 상태변수로 갖는 칼만 필터 형태로 구성하였다. 비행 시 자세 추정 기법은 사원수를 이용한 곱연산 확장형 칼만 필터를 기반으로 하며, 가속도 측정치가 중력 가속도뿐만 아니라 선회에 의한 구심력을 포함하도록 측정 모델을 개선하였다.

일반적인 무인잠수정과는 달리 수중 글라이더는 별도의 추진체를 가지지 않고 부력과 중력의 차이에 의해서 추진력을 얻게 된다. 추진력을 얻기 위해 부력을 조절하게 되며, 부력의 변화는 부력엔진을 이용하며 수중 글라이더의 체적을 변화시킨다. 또한, 수중 글라이더의 자세를 제어하기 위해 별도의 방향타를 사용하지 않고 내부의 자세제어기를 이용하여 내부 이동질량의 위치변화를 이용한다. 내부 이동질량의 위치변화에 의한 질량중심과 질량관성모멘트의 변화가 발생하게 되며 이로 인해 수중 글라이더의 자세가 변화하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 수중 글라이더의 기구학적 특성과 운동특성을 반영한 비선형 6자유도 운동방정식을 유도하고 이를 이용한 운동 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 자세제어기를 이용하여 수중 글라이더의 종동요각과 횡동요각 제어 운동 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 종동요각과 횡동요각 제어에 따른 수중 글라이더의 운동특성을 해석하였다.
