  • 피부 모사형 다기능 유연 센서는 인체 피부의 높은 자극 감지 성능과 기계적 안정성을 모사하고자 다학계적 접근을 통해 발전되어 왔다. 하지만, 실제 적용을 위해서는 일상생활 속에서 접하는 다양한 종류의 자극을 명확히 구분하고 각 자극의 세기를 정확히 감지하는 높은 수준의 자극 구별 능력이 필수적임에도 불구하고, 아직까지 낮은 수준의 자극 구별 능력을 보이는 실정이다. 본고에서는 기존 피부 모사형 유연 센서의 기본적인 작동 메커니즘과 대표적인 연구들을 간략히 소개하고, 최근 보고된 피부 모사형 다기능 유연 센서 관련 연구들의 연구 결과 및 자극 구별 능력에 대해 깊이 있게 다루고자 한다.

  • 녹산국가산업단지가 설립된 부산 낙동강 하류는 국내에서 연약지반이 가장 깊이 분포하고 있는 지역 중에 하나이다. 연약지반의 깊이가 깊은 해안 매립지의 경우, 장기간에 걸쳐 상당히 큰 잔류침하가 발생하게 된다. 본 연구는 RADARSAT-1과 Envisat의 다중시기 SAR 영상을 이용한 차분간섭기법과 SBAS 시계열 기법을 통해, 녹산산업국가단지에서 2002년 9월부터 2007년 4월 동안에 발생된 지반침하를 관측하였다. 그 결과 연구지역의 동쪽 중앙, 서쪽 중앙, 서쪽, 해안가와 닿아있는 남단에서 최대 10 cm/yr, 평균 6 cm/yr의 속도로 지반침하가 발생되고 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 RADARSAT-1 SAR 영상을 이용한 평균지표변위도는 2001년부터 2002년까지 침하계로 관측된 현장관측자료와 비교 분석되었다. 시간에 따른 지표변위 양상이 거의 선형에 가깝게 나타나므로, 연구지역의 지반침하가 안정권에 접어들 때까지 지속적인 모니터링이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

  • This paper presents a high-efficient and cost effective three-phase AC/DC-DC/AC power conversion system with a single two-switch type active Auxiliary Resonant DC Link (ARDCL) snubber circuit, which can minimize the total power dissipation. The active ARDCL snubber circuit is proposed in this paper and its unique features are described. Its operation principle in steady-state is discussed for the three phase AC/DC-DC/AC converter, which is composed of PWM rectifier as power factor correction (PFC) converter, sinewave PWM inverter. In the presented power converter system not only three-phase AC/DC PWM rectifier but also three-phase DC/AC inverter can achieve the stable ZVS commutation for all the power semiconductor devices. It is proved that the proposed three-phase AC/DC-DC/AC converter system is more effective and acceptable than the previous from the cost viewpoint and high efficient consideration. In addition, the proposed two-switch type active auxiliary ARDCL snubber circuit can reduce the peak value of the resonant inductor injection current in order to maximize total system actual efficiency by using the improved DSP based control scheme. Moreover the proposed active auxiliary two-switch ARDCL snubber circuit has the merit so that there is no need to use any sensing devices to detect the voltage and current in the ARDCL sunbber circuit for realizing soft-switching operation. This three-phase AC/DC-DC/AC converter system developed for UPS can achieve the 1.8% higher efficiency and 20dB lower conduction noise than those of the conventional three-phase hard-switching PWM AC/DC-DC/AC converter system. It is proved that actual efficiency of the proposed three-phase AC/DC-DC/AC converter system operating under a condition of soft switching is 88.7% under 10kw output power.

  • Bacteria sense their population density and coordinate the expression of target genes, including virulence factors in Gram-negative bacteria, by the N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs)-dependent quorum sensing (QS) mechanism. In contrast, several soil bacteria are able to interfere with QS by enzymatic degradation of AHLs, referred to as quorum quenching. A potent AHL-degrading enzyme, AiiA, from Bacillus thuringiensis has been reported to effectively attenuate the virulence of bacteria by quorum quenching. However, little is known about the role of AiiA in B. thuringiensis itself. In the present study, an aiiA-defective mutant was generated to investigate the role of AHA in rhizosphere competence in the root system of pepper. The aiiA mutant showed no detectable AHL¬-egrading activity and was less effective for suppression of soft-rot symptom caused by Erwinia carotovora on the potato slice. On the pepper root, the survival rate of the aiiA mutant significantly decreased over time compared with that of wild type. Interestingly, viable cell count analysis revealed that the bacterial number and composition of E. carotovora were not different between treatments of wild type and the aiiA mutant. These results provide evidence that AHA can play an important role in rhizosphere competentce of B. thuringiensis and bacterial quorum quenching to Gram-negative bacteria without changing bacterial number or composition.

  • Stereo matching has been grabbing the attention of researchers because it plays an important role in computer vision, remote sensing and photogrammetry. Although most methods perform well with small size images, experiments applying them to large-scale data sets under uncontrolled conditions are still lacking. In this paper, we present an empirical study on stereo matching for large-scale high-resolution satellite images. A new method is studied to solve the problem of huge size and memory requirement when dealing with large-scale high resolution satellite images. Integrating the tiling technique with the well-known dynamic programming and coarse-to-fine pyramid scheme as well as using memory wisely, the suggested method can be utilized for huge stereo satellite images. Analyzing 350 points from an image of size of 8192 x 8192, disparity results attain an acceptable accuracy with RMS error of 0.5459. Taking the trade-off between computational aspect and accuracy, our method gives an efficient stereo matching for huge satellite image files.

  • Processing techniques of remote sensed image data using computer have been recognized very necessary techniques to all social fields, such as, environmental observation, land cultivation, resource investigation, military trend grasp and agricultural product estimation, etc. Especially, accurate classification and analysis to remote sensed image da are important elements that can determine reliability of remote sensed image data processing systems, and many researches have been processed to improve these accuracy of classification and analysis. Traditionally, remote sensed image data processing systems have been processed 2 or 3 selected bands in multiple bands, in this time, their selection criterions are statistical separability or wavelength properties. But, it have be bring up the necessity of bands selection method by data distribution characteristics than traditional bands selection by wavelength properties or statistical separability. Because data sensing environments change from multispectral environments to hyperspectral environments. In this paper for efficient data classification in multispectral bands environment, a band feature extraction method using the Rough sets theory is proposed. First, we make a look up table from training data, and analyze the properties of experimental multispectral image data, then select the efficient band using indiscernibility relation of Rough set theory from analysis results. Proposed method is applied to LANDSAT TM data on 2 June 1992. From this, we show clustering trends that similar to traditional band selection results by wavelength properties, from this, we verify that can use the proposed method that centered on data properties to select the efficient bands, though data sensing environment change to hyperspectral band environments.
