  • In this paper, using soil slope inclinometer observations of lateral flow is used as a traditional way, but there are some decisions. Inclinometers in the process of installing and monitoring is costly. Severe incline slope of the lateral flow is observed in the inefficient. As a solution for it using TDR sensors are used to. Metal conductors such as coaxial cable and general cable uses a measurement sensor can be installed on site at a lower cost and slope measurements are available for long-term monitoring. When TDR sensor is installed on the slopes, changes in the behavior of slopes causes the earth pressure. TDR sensors determine the change of earth pressure and tried to analyze the behavior of slopes.

  • Defense systems are needed to prevent catastrophic failures of a power grid due to cascaded events. Cascaded events can be occurred by power flow overload. Especially, it is the most dangerous problem that overload line is outage, because it can make the power system face danger of cascaded. In this paper, vulnerability evaluation for monitoring wide are outage is proposed using by configuration information of transmission systems. This method of vulnerability evaluation is considered direct effect and indirect effect of power flow, especially overload. What is more, it can be used when the configuration of power system changes, as simple fault occurs or maintenance of facility. In the case studies, the estimation and simulation network have been testified and analysed in PSSE and C programming.

  • 도로 환경 모니터링을 위한 센서 노드의 전력원으로 유도풍을 이용한 압전에너지 하베스팅 기술은 기존 재생 에너지의 설치 및 작동 조건에 영향을 받지 않고, 도로상에 주오염원인 자동차에서 발생되는 폐에너지를 활용하는 친환경적 에너지 순환시스템을 구현하는 핵심 요소이다. 차량 유도풍에 의해 발생되는 풍압으로 도로 상의 구조물에 진동을 유발한다. 이 때 발생한 진동 에너지는 압전체를 통해 전기 에너지로 변환, 저장할 수 있다. 이렇게 저장된 에너지는 센서의 구동과 무선 데이터 송수신을 위한 센서 노드의 전력원으로 사용함으로써 별도의 전력원이 필요없게 된다. 본 연구에서는 60km/h로 주행하는 한 대의 차량에 의해 2.7m/s의 유도풍이 발생하여 0.6g로 도로 상의 구조물에 에너지를 전달하게 된다. 전달된 에너지가 압전체를 통해 15uJ 전기에너지로 저장된다.

  • To investigate the influence of the design and operating parameters of the headbox on hydrodynamics, a pilot headbox system and pressure monitoring apparatus were constructed. The pilot headbox system consisted of a circulating water reservoir, centrifugal pump, distributor, step diffusor and slice. The distributor was designed to function as a pressure attenuator. Flow rate to the headbox and MD and CD velocity profiles in the slice zone were monitored using an ultrasonic flowmeter and Pitot tubes, respectively. As the distance from the step diffusor increased, evener CD velocity profile was observed. Wall effect increased with the increase of the velocity. Flow stability in the headbox was evaluated by injecting a dye at the outlet of the distributor. Application of theoretical analysis based on CFD in designing headboxes is briefly discussed.

  • This study extends the Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) application to delineate the saturated zones in shallow sediment and evaluate the groundwater flow in both downward and upward directions. Dry, partially and fully saturated zones and water level in the subsurface can be recognized from this study. High resolution seepage velocity in vertical direction was estimated from the temperature data in the fully saturated zone. By a single profile, water level can be detected and seepage velocity in saturated zone can be estimated. Furthermore, thermal gradient analysis serves as a new technique to verify unsaturated and saturated zones in the subsurface. The vertical seepage velocity distribution in the recognized saturated zone is then analyzed with improvement of Bredehoeft and Papaopulos' model. This new approach provides promising potential in real-time monitoring of groundwater movement.

  • The geothermal heat pump system is designed for cooling and heating for three stories building (2,435 $m^2$) includes total 79 heat pumps. Therefore, the monitoring system is installed for each floor and the data is automatically transmitted to the monitoring system. Heat exchange rate and temperature of a geothermal heat pump system have been monitored for a long period. The seasonal operation of geothermal heat pump shows the different shape of heat exchange rate for cooling and heating. Ground water flow can influence on heat exchange rate and thermal storage of the system. In order to define the hydraulic characteristics and groundwater temperature variation, the relationships among air temperatures, groundwater temperatures, water table, and precipitation are analysed.

  • Laser-welded Tailored Blank is the hottest thing in many automobile companies. But they demand on weld quality, reproducibility, and formability. So it is the great problem of automation of laser welding process. Therefore, it is requested to construct on-line process monitoring system on high accuracy. The light which is emitted from plasma and spatter in laser welding was detected by photo-diodes. It was found that the light intensity depends on welding speed. laser power, and flow rate of assist gas. The relationship between the plasma and spatter and the weld quality can be used for on-line laser weld monitoring systems.

  • Respiration monitoring is important in many clinical situations due to its relationship to vitality. But present commercial monitoring systems are bulky and expensive, so they are inadequate to be used for long term recording or out-patients application. We have developed a low cost, low power, handhold respiration monitoring system based on airflow measurement. Respiration flow is indirectly detected using a thermister or a themocouple sensor. Real time recording of respiration rate, abnormality detection and apnea alarming are available.

  • In this study, a monitoring method to detect chip disposal state in drilling system based on neural network was proposed and its performance was evaluated. If chip flow is bad during drilling, not only the static component but also the fluctuation of dynamic component of drilling. Drilling torque is indirectly measured by sensing spindle motor power through a AC spindle motor drive system. Spindle motor power being measured drilling, four quantities such as variance/mean, mean absolute deviation, gradient, event count were calculated as feature vectors and then presented to the neural network to make a decision on chip disposal state. The selected features are sensitive to the change of chip disposal state but comparatively insensitive to the change of drilling condition. The 3 layerd neural network with error back propagation algorithm has been used. Experimental results show that the proposed monitoring system can successfully recognize the chip disposal state over a wide range of drilling condition even though it is trained under a certain drilling condition.

  • In this paper, we consider three macroscopic traffic flow monitoring indices, Travel Time Index(TTI), Acceleration Noise(AN) and Two Fluid(TF) and investigate how to determine a proper rate of probe cars for producing reliable values of these indices. For the analysis, we use classical sampling theories and provide numbers of probe rates using simulation data.
