Spectrally resolved interferometry (SRI) is an attractive technique to measure absolute distances without any moving components. In the spectral interferogram obtained by a spectrometer, the optical path difference (OPD) can simply be extracted from the linear slope of the spectral phase. However, SRI has a fundamental measuring range limitation due to maximum and minimum measurable distances. In addition, SRI cannot distinguish the OPD direction because the spectral interferogram is in the form of a natural sinusoidal function. In this investigation, we describe a direction determining SRI and propose the optimal conditions for determining OPD direction. Spectral phase nonlinearity, caused by a dispersive material, effects OPD direction but deteriorates spectral interferogram visibility. In the experiment, various phase nonlinearities were measured by adjusting the dispersive material (BK7) thickness. We observed the interferogram visibility and the possibility of direction determination. Based on the experimental results, the optimal dispersion conditions are provided to distinguish OPD directions of SRI.

모든 기계 시스템의 변수는 불확실성을 가지고 이는 시스템 성능에 직접적인 영향을 미칠 뿐 아니라 생산성 감소를 야기한다. 특히 MEMS 시스템의 크기는 매우 작으므로 일반적인 기계 시스템에 비해 제조 공차는 상대적으로 커질 수 밖에 없다. 이 제조 공차에 의한 시스템 변수 불확실성은 MEMS 시스템의 성능과 제조 수율에 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 두 가지의 불확실성 해석법을 이용하여 MEMS 가속도계의 시스템 변수 불확실성에 의한 성능의 불확실성 해석을 수행하고 성능분포 및 제조수율을 예측하였다.

Capacitance-type alcohol gas sensors using porous silicon (PS) layer as sensitive film were fabricated to measure low alcohol gas concentration. Though sensors using porous silicon layer have show high sensitivity by large internal surface area, there is still much room for improvement to measure low breath alcohol concentration especially at room temperature. In this work, to discuss the response properties against exposure to organic vapor for breath alcohol measurements on the basis of experimental results. we measured the variation of the capacitance for the range of 0 to 0.5% alcohol concentration, and observed the improvement of sensitivity by illumination of UV light. In addition, the effect of CO2 and N2 gases involved commonly in exhaling breath was estimated, and the same procedure against methanol vapor was executed to compare qualitatively with the capacitance characteristics by alcohol vapor.

In order to apply the Sievert's type automatic apparatus to thermal analysis of hydrogen absorbing materials, the Sievert's type automatic apparatus was modified in my laboratory. In this study, an experiment was conducted to see if hydrogen absorption and desorption reactions are possible under near constant pressure (${\pm}0.05atm$) using this device. The hydrogenation and dehydrogenation of the Mg-H system was investigated. And the program was also modified for the kinetics. It was found that it is possible to measure the hydrogen absorption rate under near constant pressure of Mg by using the modified Sievert's type automatic apparatus at 573 K and 598 K. And using this system, the hydrogen desorption rate of Mg hydride under near constant pressure at 623 K was also measurable. However, since the hydrogen desorption rate of Mg hydride is fast at 648 K, the hydrogen desorption reaction did not proceed within a constant pressure range of $0.15{\pm}0.05atm$.

With desires for safe food, there is growing concern that pesticide spray drift will expose people, plants, and the environment to pesticide residue and potential negative effects thereof. For highly efficient, safe spray application, technologies for measuring the spray drift should be developed and improved with some urgency. This study investigated the applicability of two optical particle counters (OPCs), which are mostly used to measure airborne particle mass concentration, for measurement of airborne pesticide spray drift. Experiments were conducted in a controlled laboratory and an ash tree orchard to evaluate the handiness and accuracy of two OPCs, OPC 1 and OPC 2. The experimental results indicated that the OPC 1 was better applicable to the measurement of spray drift in the field while the use of the OPC 2 was limited due to its narrow range of measurable droplet sizes. The readings of the OPC 1 produced highly accurate results ($R^2=0.9637$) compared to the actual spray drift. For better application of OPCs, this study suggests the OPCs should be positioned properly to inhale spray droplets of the appropriate size and concentration.

In this paper, MEMS embedded system design implemented the sensor events via analyzing the characteristics that dynamically happened to an abnormal status in power IoT environments in order to guarantee a maintainable operation. We used three kinds of tools in this paper, at first Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology which is a suitable protocol that provides a low data rate, low power consumption, and low-cost sensor applications. Secondly LSM6DSOX, a system-in-module containing a 3-axis digital accelerometer and gyroscope with low-power features for optimal motion. Thirdly BM1422AGMV Digital Magnetometer IC, a 3-axis magnetic sensor with an I2C interface and a magnetic measurable range of ±120 uT, which incorporates magneto-impedance elements to detect the magnetic field when the current flowed in the power devices. The proposed MEMS system was developed based on an nRF5340 System on Chip (SoC), previously compared to the standalone embedded system without bluetooth technology via mobile App. And also, MEMS embedded system with BLE 5.0 technology broadcasted the MEMS system status to Android mobile server. The experiment results enhanced the performance of MEMS system design by combination of sensors, BLE technology and mobile application.

A doppler log is the typical device which can measure the ship's speed over the ground directly, by means of doppler effect of the underwater ultrasonic wave, which involves the error due to the sea bottom inclination, the trim and the incorrect transducer installation etc. The present doppler log adopts a single transducer, faced in the direction of themain beam, and therefore it is unable to correct the beam direction to eliminate the above mentioned error. Moreover, the frequencyis also limitted in a comparatively high range for getting a sharp beam with single transducer, and the speed over the ground can not be detectable at the deep sea, for an instance, over 200 meters. This paper describes a theoretical consideration for the doppler log error and an analysis by a computer on the observed speed data by a full size model ship. The result is verified that the most of doppler log error is caused by the ultrasonic beam angle of transducer. To eliminate the doppler log error due to the incorrect transducer installation and also to sharpen the beam for lower frequency range to expand measurable sea depth, this paper proposes a method of controlling the directivity adopting a linear transducer array and of controlling the directivity by the control of exciting current, and investigates by the computer simulation and make experiment with magnetostrictive ferrite transducer of 28, 50 and 75KHz. The experimental results are shown well coincide with the measured ones, and they are revealed that in case where the transducer interval is greater than 1 wavelength, the effective control of the beam direction is hardly performed with keeping adequate beam width and side lobe level. It is concluded that 6-elements array with inter element space of a half wavelength can make comparatively sharp beam and low side lobe level. The results obtained here will contribute very much to the improvement of the performance of doppler log.

Purpose: To describe a technique for urodynamic diagnosis of detrusor sphincter dyssynergia (DSD) using urethral pressure measurements and examine potential associations between urethral pressure and bladder physiology among patients with DSD. Methods: Multiple sclerosis (MS) and spinal cord injured (SCI) patients with known DSD diagnosed on videourodynamics (via electromyography or voiding cystourethrography) were retrospectively identified. Data from SCI and MS patients with detrusor overactivity (DO) without DSD were abstracted as control group. Urodynamics tracings were reviewed and urethral pressure DSD was defined based on comparison of DSD and control groups. Results: Seventy-two patients with DSD were identified. Sixty-two (86%) had >20 cm $H_2O$ urethral pressure amplitude during detrusor contraction. By comparison, 5 of 23 (22%) of control group had amplitude of >20 cm $H_2O$ during episode of DO. Mean duration of urethral pressure DSD episode was 66 seconds (range, 10-500 seconds) and mean urethral pressure amplitude was 73 cm $H_2O$ (range, 1-256 cm $H_2O$). Longer (>30 seconds) DSD episodes were significantly associated with male sex (81% vs. 50%, P=0.013) and higher bladder capacity (389 mL vs. 219 mL, P=0.0004). Urethral pressure amplitude measurements during DSD were not associated with significant urodynamic variables or neurologic pathology. Conclusions: Urethral pressure amplitude of >20 cm $H_2O$ during detrusor contraction occurred in 86% of patients with known DSD. Longer DSD episodes were associated with larger bladder capacity. Further studies exploring the relationship between urethral pressure measurements and bladder physiology could phenotype DSD as a measurable variable rather than a categorical observation.

본 연구는 홍수기 유량측정의 어려움을 극복하고자 물과 비접촉식으로 유속을 측정하여 유량을 산정하는 전자파표면유속계(microwave water surface current meter, MWSCM)의 성능개선 제품인 범용 MWSCM에 대하여 소개하고자 하였다. 기존에 사용 중인 MWSCM은 홍수용으로써 연중 활용도가 낮아 이것의 이용성을 높이고자 성능을 개선하였다. 유속측정 범위를 확장하여 평 갈수기에도 하천 유량측정이 가능하게 하였다. 즉 기존 홍수용 MWSCM의 유속측정 범위가 $0.5{\sim}10.0ms^{-1}$이었던 반면, 금번에 개발된 범용 MWSCM은 $0.03{\sim}20.0ms^{-1}$로 홍수기 및 평수기 측정이 가능하도록 성능을 개선하였다. 이를 위해서 사용주파수의 변경($10GHz{\rightarrow}24GHz$), 안테나 및 송수신부 회로가 새롭게 설계 제작되었다. 이와 더불어 기존 홍수용 MWSCM 사용자들의 개선요구사항-기기 경량화, 유속 안정화, 자체점검기능, 저전력, 방수 및 방습-을 파악하여 반영함으로써 현장에서 유량을 측정하기에 용이한 기기로 개발하였다.
