The dynamic characteristics of a bridge deduced by using the modeling techniques depend on its stiffness and mass calculated from its geometric model. This research develops the FE modeling techniques for a steel plate girder bridge with composite section. and proves their validity by comparing the results with those from actual measurement. The FE modeling techniques are divided into two categories--a simplified one and two-dimensional model and a detailed three-dimensional model. In the meantime, the dynamic responses of the bridge tested for this research were measured by the ambient vibration some of accelerometers were been attached to its upper slab girder under normal traffic load. The Cross Power Spectrum obtained from the measurement was used to analyze the dynamic characteristics by natural excitation techniques. The analytic results are compared to those of each FE modeling, and thereby the modeling techniques were proved to be valid.

The radar method is becoming one of the major nondestructive testing(NDT) techniques lot concrete structures. Numerical modeling of electromagnetic wane is needed to analyze radar measurement results. Finite difference-time domain(FD-TD) method can be used to simulate electromagnetic wave propagation through concrete specimens. Five concrete specimens with different thickness are modeled in 3-dimension. Radar modeling results compare measurement results to find backface of the concrete specimens and measure thickness of the concrete specimens.

The characteristics of a tilt sensor utilizing the resistance change of an electrolyte associated with inclination is investigated, and a dynamic compensation modeling is proposed to make the real-time measurement of the absolute slope possible even with sporadically dynamic motion. Although the proposed system is small, economical and accurate for quasi-steady slope measurement, since it contains a freesurface the evolution of the liquid surface that has no direct relation to the real slope must be excluded for any rapid rotations or translations. For various artificial motions the response of the sensor is analyzed and simplified modeling equations are proposed.

When using a computer vision system for a measurement, the geometrically distorted input image usually restricts the site and size of the measuring window. A geometrically distorted image caused by the image sensing and processing hardware degrades the accuracy of the visual measurement and prohibits the arbitrary selection of the measuring scope. Therefore, an image calibration is inevitable to improve the measuring accuracy. A calibration process is usually done via four steps such as measurement, modeling, parameter estimation, and compensation. In this paper, the efficient error calibration technique of a geometrically distorted input image was developed using a neural network. After calibrating a unit pixel, the distorted image was compensated by training CMLAN(Cerebellar Model Linear Associator Network) without modeling the behavior of any system element. The input/output training pairs for the network was obtained by processing the image of the devised sampled pattern. The generalization property of the network successfully compensates the distortion errors of the untrained arbitrary pixel points on the image space. The error convergence of the trained network with respect to the network control parameters were also presented. The compensated image through the network was then post processed using a simple DDA(Digital Differential Analyzer) to avoid the pixel disconnectivity. The compensation effect was verified using known sized geometric primitives. A way to extract directly a real scaled geometric quantity of the object from the 8-directional chain coding was also devised and coded. Since the developed calibration algorithm does not require any knowledge of modeling system elements and estimating parameters, it can be applied simply to any image processing system. Furthermore, it efficiently enhances the measurement accuracy and allows the arbitrary sizing and locating of the measuring window. The applied and developed algorithms were coded as a menu driven way using MS-C language Ver. 6.0, PC VISION PLUS library functions, and VGA graphic functions.

The radar method is becoming one of the major nondestructive testing (NDT) techniques for concrete structures. Numerical modeling of electromagnetic wave is needed to analyze radar measurement results and to study the influence of measurement parameters on the radar measurements. Finite difference-time domain (FD-TD) method is used to simulate electromagnetic wave propagation through concrete specimens. Three concrete specimens with a 25 mm delamination embedded at 25 mm, 50 mm, and 75mm depth are modeled in 3-dimension. Also, thickness change of delamination and permittivity change are modeled.

A new method of measuring residual stress in micromachined film is proposed. An estimation of residual stress is performed by using least squares fit with an appropriate deflection modeling. an exact value of residual stress is obtained without any of the ambiguities that exist in conventional buckling method, and a good approximation is also obtained by using a few data points. Therefore, the test structures area could be greatly decreased by using this method. The measurement can be done more easily and simply without any actuation or any specific measuring equipment. The structure and fabrication processes described in this paper are simple and widely used in surface micromachining. In addition, in-situ measurement is available by using the proposed method when the test structure and the measurement structure are fabricated on a wafer simultaneously.

This study deals with the motion modeling by the unit motion of robots and the work measurement through classification of robot motions and standardization. The proposed approach is to scrutinize the Predetermined Time Standards(PTS) methods for measurement of manual tasks performed by people and the basic motions for accomplishing that tasks. And then, it constructs the unit motion models as subsets composed with the basic motions. It apply together with movements distance as a time variable, too. These results are used for the work measurements of robots by the unit motion models.

Runout causes severe differences among cutting force waveforms due to changes of rotational radii. Thus a runout model must be included in a cutting force model to simulate cutting force accurately. In this paper, a runout modeling method and a measurement method using a dialgauge were developed, which were easy to apply. To calculate runout parameters, a computer program algorithm which obtained runout parameters from measurement values was developed. Cutting force waveforms simulated from cutting force model considering runout effect and measured from experiments had good agreements for their wave size and order.
