Running tests on roads were conducted to clarify the influences of road infrastructure, traffic condition and vehicle's emission level to the amount of emission at local roadsides, and to reveal the operation patterns which can reduce the emission peaks. NOx emission peaks of two light duty freight diesel vehicles which have different emission levels were evaluated by using an on-board measurement system. Tests were carried out with various payload conditions and road conditions. As a result many NOx emission peaks were observed when the vehicles were starting or accelerating at intersections. The test vehicle which has higher emission level caused higher frequency and level of NOx emission peaks. Shifting up at lower engine speed in combination with lower acceleration brought out not only reduction of NOx emission peaks level but also of $CO_2$ mass emission.

In this paper, we describe the structure, function, and the operation method of the high resolution CCD camera system on the KITSAT-3, which will be launched in 1998. We have developed the camera system with the University of Stellenbosch in the Republic of South Africa. Currently we are doing the environmental test for the engineering model of the camera system. The main purposes of the system are the technology acquisition and operation test. The around resolution of the system is 15 m at the 800 Km earth orbit.

Micro wave rotor is expected to improve the performance of micro gas turbines drastically. In the present study, a micro wave rotor test rig was designed and built for micro gas turbines of 1-10 kW output range, and its test runs were carried out with cold air flow. In the previous experiments, the leakage loss had large influence on its operating condition. Therefore, abradable coating was applied on the end walls to achieve the operation with zero clearance for leakage reduction and its improvement on the operating condition is discussed in this study.

Republic of korea has begun operating high speed train service according as KTX service operation starts in 2004. Also, EMU whose maximum speed is over 150 kph will be starting to service with electrification and improvement of existing railroad. Moreover, metropolitan electric railways have begun an express service to increase scheduled speed. Therefore, running resistance of rolling stock becomes more important factor effects on the performance. Running resistance of rolling stock is the factor which is necessary for the performance or operation plan of rolling stock, and it's related to rolling friction, slip friction, drag force, gradient, acceleration, curvature, tunnel condition and so on. It is possible to be calculated by CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics). However it is predicted by experimental equation from running resistance test because of the complex calculation and manifold variables. In this paper, studies about running resistance of rolling stock is introduced, and each term of experimental equation is studied through theoretical approximation. Also, running resistance of rolling stock is estimated by the result of running resistance test, and effects being related to friction, drag force, gradient is examined.

In order to prevent bodily injuries frequently suffered in using bush cutters, especially from spattered stones, we developed a unique new cutting system equipped with a fixed blade on top of the rotary blade, and checked into the mowing performance of the cutter. From experimental test of mowing efficiency and measuring test of physical stress (O$_2$ consumption and heartbeat rates) , the new cutting system with a fixed blade proved that it keeps good cutting performance with lower peripheral speed of the rotary blade(22m/sec), compared to that of ordinary cutting blade, yielding more safety in operation. Weight of the cutter head is, however, heavier than that of ordinary machine by about 70% which increased a physical stress on the operator with slightly faster heartbeat rates. In mowing along edge of concrete wall, the operator enjoyed using the cutter with no anxiety , owing to function of the fixed blade.

The U-draw bending operation is known as a representative test method for springback evaluation of sheet metals since the sheet in U-draw bending operation undergoes stretching, bending and unbending deformations occurred at read stamping process. In this study, a simplified approach was proposed for predicting springback and side-wall curls in U-draw bending operations, using moment-curvature relationships derived for sheets undergoing stretching, bending and unbending deformation.

Ranging and 2-way Doppler measurements are very essential source for orbit determination in LEOP (Launch and Early Operation). This paper shows ranging system features of 13M TT &C antenna and test results recently acquired with KOMPSAT-l. Ranging and 2-way Doppler measurements were compared with KOMPSAT-I GPS telemetry data. Through comparison, it was found that constant and accurate ranging measurements are available with 13M antenna system. Ranging and Doppler measurement function is expected to be used for KOMPSAT-1 and KOMPSAT-2.

The objective of this study is to design a fuzzy logic controller(FLC) which controls the position of excavator's attachment a noble FLC is proposed, which is based on simple control rules while offering easy tuning of control parameters by utilizing real operation characteristics of an operator. The proposed FLC consists of two parts, the proportional controller part and the FLC part. Experiments are carried out on a test bed which is built around a commercial excavator. The controller is applied to bhe leveling of excavator's bucket tip, which is one of the main functions in an excavator's operation.

KSTAR cryostat is a large vacuum vessel that provides the necessary thermal barrier between the ambient temperature test cell and the liquid helium cooled magnets. In this work, the structural analyses for the cryostat under the normal operation condition were performed. As a result, it turns out that the vessel would be safe when it is exposed to normal operation loads, such as system weight, vacuum pressure, and plasma vertical disruption load. And, the preliminary result on the modal analysis is presented.

A 765kV Transmission line system plays an important role in delivering the electric power produced at mid-western in Korea. This system will be constructed and operated normally on 2002. By doing the number of test operation in a given time, the reliability on the operation of 765kV transmission system could be secured.
