Electrogastrography(EGG), the cutaneous recording of the myoelectrical activity of the stomach using surface electrodes, is attractive due to its non-invasiveness. We propose feasible methods to detect tile gastric contraction by vector analysis of the surface EGG signals obtained from three paired electrodes. The amplitude and direction of the calculated EGG vector were analyzed and compared with the gastric contraction signals such as the strain gauge signal from the gastric serosa in dog. From the vector analysis of the EGG signal, we found a typical change of the amplitude and direction of the EGG vector, which can indicate occurrences of the gastric contraction.

The management of technological systems will become increasingly complex. Safe and reliable software operation is a significant requirement for many types of system. So, with software fault tolerance, we want to prevent failures by tolerating faults whose occurrences are known when errors are detected. This paper presents a fault location algorithm for single-phase-to-ground faults on the teed circuit of a parallel transmission line using software fault tolerance technique. To find the fault location of transmission line, we have to solve the 3rd order transmission line equation. A significant improvement in the identification of the fault location was accomplished using the N-Version Programming (NVP) design paradigm. The delivered new algorithm has been tested with the simulation data obtained from the versatile EMTP simulator.

PURPOSES : This study is to suggest heavy snow risk analysis in Seoul. METHODS : Recently, the increase of extreme weather caused by global warming raises the occurrences of unpredictable natural disasters and the loss potential of human disasters by land use facilities accumulation. It is necessary to develop the risk analysis for the natural and human disasters. RESULTS : In this study, heavy snow risk analysis among natural disasters in Seoul was suggested. The spatial unit of risk analysis level was established for the lines and administrative districts. CONCLUSIONS : The risk analysis was performed using risk matrix of disaster occurrence score and disaster damage score. The components affecting the risk disaster analysis by types were analyzed and the application of heavy snow risk analysis was suggested.

This paper presents multi-source spatial data integration models based on probability theory for landslide hazard assessment. Four probabilistic models such as empirical likelihood ratio estimation, logistic regression, generalized additive and predictive discriminant models are proposed and applied. The models proposed here are theoretically based on statistical relationships between landslide occurrences and input spatial data sets. Those models especially have the advantage of direct use of continuous data without any information loss. A case study from the Gangneung area, Korea was carried out to quantitatively assess those four models and to discuss operational issues.

This study was conducted with respect to the causal factors revealed through the investigation of the recent airlines aircraft crash accident which occurred while aircraft was on the climb-out or on the final approach. This study also highlighted the importance of flight deviation and exceedance occurrences in consideration of Flight Operational Quality Assurance Program(FOQA). Twenty airline pilots participated in the flight experiment to perform ten(10) sets of simulated approaches and landings. As a result, Twelve(12) kinds of deviation events were discovered. In this respect, The FOQA program must be fully implemented to prevent any flight safety incident under the auspices of the Korea domestic aviation community as well.

This paper deals with a fault detection algorithm for linear descriptor systems via unknown input PI observer. An unknown input PI observer is presented and its realization conditions is proposed by using the rank condition of system matrices. From the characteristics of unknown input PI observer, the states of system with unknown inputs are estimated and the occurrences of fault are detected, and its magnitudes are estimated easily by using integrated output estimation error under the step faults. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed fault detection algorithm.

This paper proposes an efficient location technique to find an indoor location under the IEEE 802.11 wireless local area networks. The proposed method is based on the range measurements obtained from a simple radio frequency propagation model. Thus, unlike the radio frequency fingerprint correlation method, it does not suffer from the computational burden during the real-time location service period and can quickly reply the location requests of many users at the same time. To increase the location accuracy in spite of the frequent non-line-of-sight error occurrences, the proposed method calibrates the distortion of the non-line-of-sight error by a simple measurement surveying procedure that does not require the surveyor's manual interaction. Experimental results show the capability of the proposed method.

These days in execution of building works are increasing possibility of defect occurrences. On this, construction safety policy has been enforcing prevention for fault construction. But argument in relation to defects is increasing every day, because regulations for defects are abstract and uncertain. Therefore we analyzed patterns and reasons of defect, researched into question for rational solution about defect responsibility and responsibility period of a warranty in argument.

In this paper, we derived the autocorrelation distributions, i.e., the values and the number of occurrences of each value of the autocorrelation function of Sidel'nikov sequences. The frequency of each autocorrelation value of an M-ary Sidel'nikov sequence is expressed in terms of the cyclotomic numbers of order M. It is also pointed out that the total number of distinct autocorrelation values is dependent not oかy on M but also on the sequence, but always less than or equal to ($\frac{M}{2}$)+1.

Pure iron, Fe-0.4, and 1.2 wt.%Cu alloys were examined by conducting the electrochemical techniques in the weakly alkaline solution, pH9, controlled by $Ca(OH)_2$, solution added with 0.02M NaCl. The $R_P$ measured from ac impedance, selected 10 kHz and 10mHz, in weakly alkaline solutions containing chloride ions indicated that the addition of copper up to 1.2wt.% into the pure iron significantly improved the pitting resistance of iron. In contrast to alloy, the pure iron showed the rapid pitting occurrences in drying period. During the drying period, the corrosion potential of pure iron was shifted to less noble value, pitting initiation.
