  • This paper proposes an inertial navigation system(INS) with which a biped robot can determine his position, velocity, posture, etc. The proposed system provides the information of robots independently without using any outer signals. The defect of the algorithm is the en'or accumulation as the robot increases the mobile range. However, in this application the problem is not so critical because the working space is small and operation period of the robots is relatively short. With the proposed INS system biped robots obtain enhanced intelligence to execute their tasks. The structure and theoretical backgrounds are utilized to design the INS system. The method for application of INS system to biped robots has been illustrated.

  • In this paper we present an algorithm about how to simulate two dimensional dam breaking with lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). LBM considers a typical volume element of fluid to be composed of a collection of particles that represented by a particle velocity distribution function for each fluid component at each grid point. We use the modified Lattice Boltzmann Method for incompressible fluid. This paper will represent detailed information on single phase flow which considers only the water instead of both air and water. Interface treatment and conservation of mass are the most important things in simulating free surface where the Interface is treated by mass exchange with the water region. We consider the surface tension on the interface and also bounce back boundary condition for the treatment of solid obstacles. We will compare the results of the simulation with some methods and experimental results.

  • Optical fiber vibrations sensors (OFVSs) and extrinsic Fabry-Perot interferometer (EFPI) were used in damage monitoring of fiber-metal laminates(FML). The optical fiber vibration sensor and EFPI were applied in order to detect and evaluate the strain, damage and failure of FML. Damages in composites, such as matrix cracks, delamination and fiber breakage may occur as a result of excessive load, fatigue and low-velocity impacts. Indentation test was performed with the measurement of optical signal and acoustic emission (AE). The signals of the optical fiber vibration sensor due to damages were quantitatively evaluated by wavelet transform. It was found that damage information of comparable in quality to acoustic emission data could be obtained from the optical fiber vibration sensor signals.

  • Virtual images for PIV are produced for the construction of a benchmark test tool of PTV systems, Camera parameters obtained by an actual experiment are used to construct the virtual images, LES(Large Eddy Simulation) data sets of a channel flow are used for generation of the virtual images, Using the virtual images and the camera's parameters. three-dimensional velocity vectors are obtained for a channel flow. The capabilities of a 3D-PTV algorithm are investigated by comparing the results obtained by the virtual images and those by an actual measurement for the channel flow.

  • Two round jets. impinged and pulsed. were measured with high-resolution 3D-PTV technique. The measurement system consists of three CCD cameras, Ar-ion laser, an image grabber and a host computer. Two fitness functions were introduced in a genetic algorithm in order to enhance the correspondences of the particles. One was based on a concept of the continuum theory and the other one was based on a minimum distance error. The velocity profiles of the impinged jet obtained by the constructed 3D-PTV system were compared with those of LDV measurements made in this study. The head vortex of the jet was visualized by LIF and was reconstructed by the constructed high-resolution 3D-PTV system for comparisons.

  • This paper addresses the method for figuring out the hole diameter on the mask containing the information about machining depth. With this mask e micro machining is carried out with a simple 2D movement of the mask. Based on e suggested method excimer laser ablation processes are modeled and determination of the optimal laser ablation conditions such as hole diameter, step size, mask movement velocity, etc. is completed. The excimer laser ablation simulation for creating 3D micro lens is carried out by employing determined ablation conditions to prove verification of the method. The results from simulation illustrated the average error of 140nm and e relative error of 2%.

  • The conventional studies of the aging effect on cardio-vascular system are mostly obtained from human experiences and can only provide local information. In this study, the effect of fatigue fracture of arterial wall on the blood pressure was investigated by hemodynamic analysis. The aging process was simulated with three stages. The pulse wave velocity increased with age. The systolic blood pressure increases consistently but diastolic blood pressure decreases with age. The simulated results show in good accordance with the clinical ones.

  • The slag through sieve #4 replaced the natural fine aggregate in different proportions (0-50%) to make ready-mixed soil and slag (RMSAS). The fresh properties studied, and the concrete specimens were produced to test the hardened properties at different ages. Results showed that the workability of RMSAS decreases when the replacement increases. The unit weight increases with the replacement. The setting time extends when the replacement decreases and shortens when the replacement increases. The compressive strength, ultrasonic pulse velocity and hammer rebound value increase with the replacement. However, the high-replacement results decrease because of the expansion factor at late age. Resistivity is close and less than $20k{\Omega}-cm$. After the industrial of steelmaking by-products are processed properly, they can be used in civil engineering, not only as a substitute for natural resources and to reduce costs, but also to provide environmental protection.

  • A computer simulation model is proposed for selecting effective agrees paths and estimating the evacuation time in case of evacuating all the residents of a building to the safe area. The physical structure of a building is formulated into a network. The followings are considered in the model : the congestion effect to the velocity, the behavioral pattern of the evacuees, and the probabilistic nature of the evacuation process. Coded in SLAM II/PC, the simulation model can generate the output such as evacuation time(max, average), utilization of exits, utilization of passages, floor clearance times, and bottleneck information. The "rigorous" validation of the proposed model is not completed yet but remains to be a future research topic.rch topic.

  • Acoustic pressure transmission coefficient and phase velocity are measured as the functions of water porosity and air porosity in sand sediment slabs with water- and air-filled pores. Pores in the sand sediment slab we modeled as the structure of circular cylindrical tube shape filled with water and air. The first kind(fast) wave and second kind (slow) wave, identified by Biot, in the solid and fluid mixed medium are affected by the presence of water and air pores. Acoustic characteristics of such porous medium in water are also theoretically investigated in terms of the modified Biot-Attenborough (MBA) model, which uses the separate treatment of viscosity effect and thermal effect in non-rigid porous medium with water- and air-filed pores. The information on the fast waves introduces new concepts of the generalized tortuosity factor and dynamic shape factor.
