In this paper, we propose the development of a power conversion system for electric power take-off (e-PTO) of agricultural electric vehicles. Most e-PTOs use commercial power $220V_{AC}$. A bidirectional power conversion system having a two-stage structure consisting of a DC-DC converter and a DC-AC inverter for supplying a high output voltage using a low battery voltage of an agricultural electric vehicle is suitable. we propose a power conversion system consisting of the one-stage dual active bridge (DAB) converter and the two-stage bidirectional full bridge inverter. In addition, we propose a soft start algorithm for reducing the inrush current generated by the link capacitor charging during the initial operation. A 3kW prototype system and its corresponding algorithms have been implemented to verify its effectiveness through experiments.

Technology status was investigated by analyzing patents and development cases of wearable robots. Development direction of wearable robot for wearability was also suggested by understanding the problems of wearability from development cases through the FGI technique. The number of patents per technical field was the most in the field of strength support, but AI in the technology field was different in each country; Korea was found to be poor in the category of daily living assistance. The number of patents by technology category was the most in the category of muscular strength assistance. However, the values of AI in the technology category were different in each country; Korea was found to be poor in the category of daily living assistance. Development cases were focused on rehabilitation, so development is not fulfilled uniformly by use purpose. By wearing body parts, robots with single function type were mainly developed. Rigid material robots were mainly developed. It was confirmed that wearable robot technology is not developed evenly in the category of application because it is in the early stage of the technical proposal and centered on main performance improvement. We derived twelve wearable conditions for wearable robots: Shape and Size Appropriateness, Movement Appropriateness, Composition Appropriateness, Physiological Appropriateness, Performance Satisfaction, Ease of Operation, Safety, Durability, Ease of Dressing, Ease of Cleaning, Portability and Ease of Storage and Appearance Satisfaction. Finally, the development direction of a wearable robot for each wearable condition was suggested.

In this paper, we propose a syndrome decoding scheme that can correct two errors for single error correcting Hamming codes within a code length. The decoding scheme proposed in this paper has the advantage of significantly improving the error rate performance compared to the decoder complexity by correcting multiple errors without substantially increasing the decoding complexity. It is suitable for applications in which the energy use of encoder/decoder is extremely limited and the low error rate performance is required, such as IoT communications and molecular communications. In order to verify the improvement of the error rate performance of the Hamming code with the proposed decoding scheme, we performed simulation on Hamming codes with short code length in the AWGN and BPSK modulation environments. As a result, compared with the conventional decoding method, the proposed decoding scheme showed performance improvement of about 1.1 ~ 1.2[dB] regardless of the code length of the Hamming code.

The importance of color is increasing in modern life and we call such present age that is 'color age'. These day that all areas of life are being getting fashionize, ordinary people as well as design specialist are required of culture and knowledge about color. Color design education is important curriculum at liberal arts course and in special design trainning course. Color expresses by hue, value and chroma in Munsell color system. But design spot is using mainly hue and tone color system. Therefore it is very important that educate tone concept in color design education. When think influence that increase of color, we must develop hue and tone color system in suitable for color design education. This research designed usable 'Hue and Tone 313 Colot System' for efficeint sensual color education. Also I designed 313 color papers with attached the Munsell notation which could reappear the spare color paper when needed. The 10 hues classification of this system are Red, Yellow Red, Yellow, Green Yellow, Green, Blue Green, Blue, Purple Blue, Purple, Red Purple. The 19 tones classification of this system are vivid, light, standard, deep, pale, soft, dull, dark, very pale, light grayish, medium grayish, dark grayish, very dark, off White, off Pale, off Light Gray, off Medium Gray, off Dark Gray, off Black. The special colors of this system are gold, silver and copper.

As the number of existing road tunnels increases every year, collapse and floor heaving accidents occur frequently during construction. The collapse among tunnel accidents dominates, so that studies related to the floor heaving are relatively insufficient. Accordingly, many studies to reinforce the lower part of the tunnel have been conducted, but the analysis on the effect of the curvature of the tunnel floor is insufficient. Therefore, in this study, the effects of the upper analysis area height and the coefficient of lateral earth pressure of the tunnel located on a tuff deterioration zone with a large rock cover, as well as the floor curvature, were examined through sensitivity analysis. As a result of the analysis, it turned out that the overall stability of the tunnel increases as the floor curvature increases, the coefficient of lateral earth pressure decreases, and the upper analysis region increases.

In this study, piezocone coefficients of clays (Hwasung, Gunsan, Changwon, Busan) were analyzed from piezocone penetration tests those accompanied with vane shear and UU tests. Piezocone coefficients of west sea clays (Hwasung, Gunsan), i.e, N_kt is 12.6 and N_qu is 8.8, while those of south sea clays are 16.5 and 9.2 respectively. The difference of liquid limit between south and west clays causes main roles those which west sea clay is generally lower than 50%, i.e, CL, and liquid limit of south sea clay is mostly higher than 50%, i.e CH. Piezocone coefficients obtained from several tests show similar trends even though they still have some differences depending on each test. However, they show clear differences depending on liquid limit. Therefore, piezocone coefficients need to be used with caution depending on LL.

This paper focuses on the development and assessment of the expected damage for the rocking response of rigid anchored blocks, with irregular geometry and non-uniform mass distribution, considering the site conditions and the seismicity of Mexico City. The non-linear behavior of the restrainers is incorporated to evaluate the pure tension and tension-shear failure mechanisms. A probabilistic framework is performed covering a wide range of block sizes, slenderness ratios and eccentricities using physics-based ground motion simulation. In order to incorporate the uncertainties related to the propagation of far-field earthquakes with a significant contribution to the seismic hazard at study sites, it was simulated a set of scenarios using a stochastic summation methods of small-earthquakes records, considered as Empirical Green's Function (EGFs). As Engineering Demand Parameter (EDP), the absolute value of the maximum block rotation normalized by the body slenderness, as a function of the peak ground acceleration (PGA) is adopted. The results show that anchorages are more efficient for blocks with slenderness ratio between two and three, while slenderness above four provide a better stability when they are not restrained. Besides, there is a range of peak intensities where anchored blocks located in soft soils are less vulnerable with respect to those located in firm soils. The procedure used in here allows to take decisions about risk, reliability and resilience assessment of different types of contents, and it is easily adaptable to other seismic environments.

GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar), developed as a technology for geotechnical investigations such as sinkhole exploration, was used limitedly as a method to resolve undetectable lines in underground facility exploration. To improve the accuracy of underground facility data, the government made it possible to explore underground facilities using a non-metallic pipeline probe from July 2022. However, GPR has a problem in that the exploration rate is lowered in the soil with high moisture content, such as soft soil, such as clay layer, and there is a lot of variation in long-term accuracy. In this study, as a way to improve the accuracy of exploration considering the characteristics of GPR and the environment of underground facilities, we propose a GPR exploration method for underground facilities using permittivity constant correction and pattern analysis of GPR image data. Through this study, the accuracy of underground facility exploration and high reproducibility were derived as a result of field verification applying GPR frequency band and heterogeneous GPR.

In this study, a model was developed for the estimating the locational thickness information of the upper clay layer to be used for the consolidation vulnerability evaluation in the Nakdong river estuary. To estimate ground layer thickness information, we developed four spatial estimation models using machine learning algorithms, which are RF (Random Forest), SVR (Support Vector Regression) and GPR (Gaussian Process Regression), and geostatistical technique such as Ordinary Kriging. Among the 4,712 borehole data in the study area collected for model development, 2,948 borehole data with an upper clay layer were used, and Pearson correlation coefficient and mean squared error were used to quantitatively evaluate the performance of the developed models. In addition, for qualitative evaluation, each model was used throughout the study area to estimate the information of the upper clay layer, and the thickness distribution characteristics of it were compared with each other.

In this paper, we propose an efficient concatenated code for both random and ISI errors on diffusion-based molecular communication channels. The proposed concatenated code was constructed by combining the ISI-mitigating code designed for ISI mitigation and the ISI-Hamming code strong against random errors, and the BER(bit error rate) performance was analyzed through simulation. In the case of the above M=1,200 channel environment, it was found that the error rate performance of the concatenated code follows the error rate performance of the ISI-mitigating code, which is strong against ISI, and follows the error rate performance of the ISI-Hamming code, which is strong against random errors, in the channel environment below M=600. In M=600~1,200, the concatenated code shows the best error rate performance among those of three codes, which is analyzed because it can correct both random errors and errors caused by ISI. In the following cases of below M=800, it can be seen that the error rate of the concatenated code and the ISI-mitigating code shows an error rate difference of about 1.0×10^-1 on average.
