Most of the work of construction equipment and agricultural machinery is done in off-road conditions. Autonomous driving required in these conditions uses GPS sensors, and PID controllers to control their speed and position. The hydrostatic steering, which is composed of a PSU, hydraulic hoses, and cylinders, rather than a mechanical coupling is used in these equipments. The PSU plays a key role in hydrostatic steering. Precise control of the position under various conditions requires detailed behavioral analysis of the basic components and operation. Two Gerotor PSU is now a commonly used safer option. The components of the PSU can be divided into mechanical and hydraulic actuating elements by its behavior. Since the system is combined by mechanical and hydraulic elements, the modelings are performed using Amesim, which is one of the most effective for the multi-domain dynamic system analysis. To confirm the validity of the model, input torque and pressures are checked with varying steering speed. The opening and the steering speed of normal and newly designed control valve set is investigated with the effect of centering spring force and friction. Finally, simulation results with fully detailed model with two gerotors are analyzed and compared with simple model.

One of the oldest, most common engineering problems is measuring the dimensions of different objects and the distances between locations. In AEC/FM, related uses vary from large-scale applications such as measuring distances between cities to small-scale applications such as measuring the depth of a crack or the width of a welded joint. Within the last few years, advances in applying new technologies have prompted the development of new measuring devices such as ultrasound and laser-based measurers. Because of wide varieties in type, associated costs, and levels of accuracy, the selection of an optimal measuring technology is challenging for construction engineers and facility managers. To tackle this issue, we present an overview of various measuring technologies adopted by experts in the area of AEC/FM. As the next step, to evaluate the performance of these technologies, we select one indoor and one outdoor case and measure several dimensions using six categories of technologies: tapes, total stations, laser measurers, ultrasound devices, laser scanners, and image-based technologies. Then we evaluate the results according to various metrics such as accuracy, ease of use, operation time, associated costs, compare these results, and recommend optimal technologies for specific applications. The results also revealed that in most applications, computer vision-based technologies outperform traditional devices in terms of ease of use, associated costs, and accuracy.

Large-scale three-wheeled cleaning robots are utilized to clean large spaces such as warehouses and manufacturing plants where significant floor contamination occurs. Although there are autonomous cleaning robots, user-operated cleaning robots are often preferred because they are easy to repair and inexpensive. Therefore, workers have to spend extra time on cleaning, which reduces work efficiency. In this paper, we propose an autonomous driving system designed to automate the operation while maintaining the structure of existing cleaning robots. The contributions of this paper are as follows: 1) Hardware modules that control the driving and steering components. 2) A LiDAR-based autonomous driving system and path point generation system considering the mechanical characteristics of the cleaning robot. 3) The proposed system is implemented on an actual cleaning robot and driving tests are performed. As a result, when path planning is performed to cover the cleaning area, the average RMSE for each straight path is 0.0802 m, which is smaller than the minimum cleaning overlap of 0.3 m that occurs during the straight cleaning of the robot. This shows that the proposed system effectively covers the entire cleaning area.

In order to investigate on the field performance of 3.5PS power tiller and to obtain the optimum using conditions of it, this experiment has been carried on the plowing operation, the rotary harrowing operation and the ridging operation that compared 3.5PS power tiller(KC-450) with the existing 5PS(DT-40) and 8PS(DT-85) power tiller. It has been performed at Suck Jung-Dong, Ansung Country, from March to October in 1980. The results of this field test were obtained as follows; 1. The plowing performance of KC-450 tiller was found to be 125min/10a that was lower than that of DT-85 tiller by 26min/10a in the effective plowing speed 0.9m/sec. 2. The field efficiency of KC-450 tiller was the highest among the power tillers as to be 82 persent that was higher than that of DT-85 tiller by 5 persent in the effective plowing speed 1m/sec. 3. The rotary harrowing performances of DT-40 tiller and DT-85 tiller were higher than that of KC-450 tiller in the rotary harrowing operation of the same speed, and the field efficiency of KC-450 tiller and DT-40 tiller were higher than that of DT-85 tiller in the rotary harrowing operation. 4. The ridging Performance of testing power tillers were nearly equality in the ridging operation of the same speed, and the field efficiency of testing tillers were higher KC-450 tiller than DT-40 tiller, DT-40 tiller than DT-85 tiller. 5. The work performance of power tiller increased with increase in the size of field area. Work performance and field efficiency of KC-450 tiller were higher than other tillers below 8a in field size 6. DT -85 tiller was more useful in deep plowing depth. But below 8a in field size KC-450 tiller was more easily operated and its field efficiency was higher 7. KC-450 tiller should be more useful to operate in the small size field or in the small scale farming and for the cultivation of vegetables, gardening plants, medicinal herb and tobacco plants, or for the cultivation in vinyl house.

In order to estimate the demand for water resources planning and operation, methodology for determining the size of water supply facilities has been mainly applied to agricultural water, unlike living and industrial water, which reflects actual usage trends. This inevitably leads to an overestimation of agricultural water and can lead to an imbalance in the supply and demand of each use in terms of the total water resources plan. In this study, the difference of approaches of concept of net consumption was examined in comparison with the existing methodology and the characteristics of agricultural water demand were analyzed by applying it to whole Jeju Island. SWAT model was applied to estimate the amount of evapotranspiration, which is a key factor in estimating demand, and watershed modeling was performed to reflect geographical features, weather, runoff and water use characteristics of Jeju Island. For the past period (1992~2013), demand of Jeju Island as a whole was analyzed as 427 mm per year, and it showed a relatively high demand around the eastern and western coastal regions. Annual demand and seasonal variation characteristics of 10 river basins with watershed area of $30km^2$ or more were also analyzed. In addition, by applying the cultivated area of each crop in 2020 in the future, it is estimated that the demand corresponding to the 10-year frequency drought is 54% of the amount demanded in the previous research. This is due to the difference in approach depending on the purpose of the demand calculation. From the viewpoint of water resource management and operation, additional demand is expected as much as the net consumption. However, from the actual supply perspective, it can be judged that a facility plan that meets the existing demand amount is necessary. In order to utilize the methodologies and results presented in this study in practice, it is necessary to make a reasonable discussion in terms of policy and institutional as well as engineering verification.

This study was conducted to investigate the variables affecting the performance of hammer mills by the theoretical and dimensional analysis, and evaluate the power requirements of hammer mills for farm use in Korea. From the theoretical analysis, 16 variables affecting the performance of hammer mills were defined. In order to develop the mathematical relationships among the variables, the dimensional analysis was made for power requirements and $12{\pi}$ parameters were obtained. For the evaluation of the power requirements of hammer mills, approximate rates of grinding for 1HP, 3HP, 5HP, 6HP, 8HP, and 10HP were analyzed. Then, the fineness of grinding recommendation and average feeding rate of grain for livestock which is native cattle, dairy cattle, beef cattle, swine, broilers, and layers, were estimated. Finally number of livestock feeding shelled corn and barley were estimated from the above for one hour's hammer mill operation having the various power requirements. From this study it is known that 5HP is considered as an enough power for feed grinding of any kinds of livestock of Korean farm, as far as the grinding capacity is concerned.
