This paper presents a recoil and counter recoil motion measurement system using linear variable differential transformers (LVDT). The output of the LVDT is obtained from the differential voltage of the secondary transformers. Since a transducer core is attached to the motion body, the output is directly proportional to the movement length of the core. Displacement, velocity and acceleration are measured from the LVDT. With a comparison between the measurement result and the reference value obtained by the highly accurate Vernier calipers, it is proved that the measurement system with the LVDT is applicable to the test of the moving part of the mechanism with better accuracy.

An integration system with multi-measurement sets can be realized via combined application of a centralized and federated Kalman filter. It is difficult for the centralized Kalman filter to remove a failed sensor in comparison with the federated Kalman filter. All varieties of Kalman filters monitor innovation sequence (residual) for detection and isolation of a failed sensor. The innovation sequence, which is selected as an indicator of real time estimation error plays an important role in adaptive mechanism design. In this study, the centralized Kalman filter with adaptive measurement fusion is introduced by means of innovation sequence. The objectives of adaptive measurement fusion are automatic isolation and recovery of some sensor failures as well as inherent monitoring capability. The proposed adaptive filter is applied to the GPS/SDINS integration system with an additional sensor. Simulation studies attest that the proposed adaptive scheme is effective for isolation and recovery of immediate sensor failures.

A new magnetoelastic technique of oil viscosity measurement, where the oil viscosity is estimated by frequency shift of natural oscillations of magnetoelastic ribbon, is implemented in this study. Laboratory tests of the detector prototype are performed for measurement of viscosity of base synthetic and mineral oils. It was found that measurement accuracy was better when damping factor was estimated in comparison with accuracy of frequency of damped oscillations. Thus the oil viscosity was calibrated as a function of number of pulses of the damped oscillations of magnetoelastic ribbon. Result generally showed that developed detector is promising for in line oil viscosity measurement in wide viscosity range from 10 cSt up to 600 cSt, while the viscosity measurement was relatively instable when the viscosity of test oil was over 400 cSt.

One of the preferred methods that can be used to verify the results of finite element analysis is to measure surface strains of the deformed part for purpose of direct comparison with simulation results. Instead of using the usual manual method the vision-based measurement method is capable of determining surface geometry and strain from the deformed grid pattern automatically with the help of a computer. To obtain strain distribution over an area, the coordinates of such a surface grid are determined from the multiple video images by applying the photogrammetry principle. Methods to improve the overall accuracy of the vision-based strain measurement system are explored and the possible accuracies that can be attained by such a measurement method are discussed. A major emphasis is placed on the initial grid application method its accuracy and ease of subsequent image processing. Finite element analyses of limiting dome height(LDH) test are carried out and the results of them are compared with exsperimen-tal data.

A comparative study on dynamic and static measurement of initial stiffness was conducted. Because soil stiffness decreases even at very small strains, the initial stiffness has been measured by dynamic tests using shear wave velocity measurement. On the other hand, due to the advance of local strain measurement, the triaxial testing device is capable of measuring the static initial stiffness. It has been known that initial stiffness measured by static triaxial tests is generally lower than that measured by dynamic tests possibly due to the limitation of static measurement of displacement at very small strains. This study presents experimental results indicating that the elastic shear moduli could be the same both in dynamic and static measurements owing to the soil anisotropy induced by anisotropic stresses.

Nowadays almost all universities are endeavoring to improve the quality of education offered. The quality of education that is provided should be measured beforehand. This study examined three methods, SERVQUAL, SERVPERF and Lee and Yun(2004)'s method of measuring service quality: SERVQUAL, SERVPERF are well known and the most commonly used measurement of the quality of education offered and the Lee and Yun(2004)'s method measures service quality using fuzzy numbers. As a result of this research, SERVQUAL was proven to be the most efficient method to measure the quality of education offered. Even though, more actual analysis related to this study should be followed, the research is meaningful in a way that it provided clues and reasons for the study.

Formaldehyde is known to have adverse health effects, and is also found to be a product of atmospheric. photochemical reaction%. Several methods have been employed for the measurement of formaldehyde. Among them, two common methods are comparatively evaluated in this study, i.e. the chromotropic acid method and the HPLC method coupled with 2,4- dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) derivatization of carbonyl compounds. Method evaluation and validation were performed with respect to repeatability, linearity, collection efficiency, and recovery efficiency. Comparison of formaldehyde concentrations measured simultaneously in the field using the two (n=20) and 35.8%, respectively. Overall, the measured levels by chromotropic acid method appeared to ice significantly higher than those by DNPH-HPLC method, indicating a positive interference due to the other aldehydes collected together with formaldehyde.

This paper describes a CCM key comparison of low absolute-pressure standards at seven National Measurement Institutes that was carried out during the period March 1998 to September 1999 in order to determine their degrees of equivalence at pressures in the range 1 Pa to 1000 Pa. The Korea Research Institutes of Standards and Science(KRISS) participated from 10 Pa to 1000 Pa pressure range in 1999. The primary standards, which represent two principal measurement methods, included five liquid-column manometers and four static expansion systems. The transfer standard package consisted of four high-precision pressure transducers, two capacitance diaphragm gauges to provide high resolution at low pressures, and two resonant silicon gauges to provide the required calibration stability.

In the literature on the tense consonants in Korean, it has been proposed that this consonant is underlyingly represented by a single consonant (the singleton hypothesis) and that it is represented by a sequence of two lenis consonants (the geminate hypothesis). One piece of the empirical evidence supporting the geminate hypothesis is that the closure duration of tense consonants in intervocalic position is more than twice as long in comparison with their lenis counterparts. In this paper, we report on the closure duration of three types of plosives in various phonotactically permitted contexts in Korean. The results of the measurement show that the duration of the tense consonants in post-sonorant contexts is reduced by a third in comparison with that of the intervocalic ones. These temporal differences suggest that the measurement of closure durations in intervocalic position alone is not sufficient to sustain the geminate hypothesis.

The paper deals with the accuracy comparison between two kinds of ultrasonic paths for flow rate measurement. In the Z-path, two transducers are installed on the opposite sides of each other on a pipe, and the ultrasonic waves generated at one transducer propagate to arrive at the other one only by refraction. In the V-path, two transducers are installed on one side of a pipe, and the ultrasonic waves reflected at the inner wall of the pipe are received. Transit times were confirmed to identify the propagation paths by comparing the theoretically calculated results and measured ones. The flow rate measurements with two kinds of ultrasonic paths appeared very similar. It would be possible to select either of the paths by considering the advantages and disadvantages.
