  • A test simulator is needed to develop a fuel quantity measurement system that takes into account the roll and pitch motion of the aircraft. In this paper, we develop a test simulator that consists of attitude simulation equipment, fueling equipment, and data storage equipment. The attitude simulation equipment simulates the aircraft attitude. It is manufactured to operate pitch angle and roll angle movement. The fueling equipment supplies fuel to the supplementary fuel tank. The data storage equipment collects and stores the measured data. We also develop an automation software that operates the test simulator and collects data automatically. The test simulator has been automated to prevent testers from being exposed to toxic fuel. Through automation software, the collection period is reduced by one quarter compared to manual collection. The developed fuel quantity measurement system is verified through the test simulator.

  • Purpose: The purposes of this study were to investigate nursing students' attitudes toward the elderly and to explore the effects of senior simulation on nursing students' attitudes. Method: For the purpose of the study, the program was performed on 223 nursing students in Gyung-gi. An Aging Semantic Differential Scale was utilized to evaluate attitudes toward the elderly. The senior simulation equipment consisted of a special spacesuit, glasses, gloves, and sand bag. Before and after the experiment subjects filled out questionnaires. Result: The attitude score before the experiment was 4.13, which indicates a neutral attitude, Nursing students' attitudes toward the elderly related significantly to religion, living with grandparents, volunteer work for the elderly, and acquired knowledge. The Senior simulation enabled nursing students' attitudes to turn positive toward the elderly. Conclusion: Senior simulation can affect nursing students' attitude toward the elderly. There is a need to develop routine education programs to maintain the positive attitude.

  • Magnetically suspended control & sensitive gyroscope (MSCSG) is a novel type of gyroscope with the integration of attitude control and attitude angular measurement. To improve the precision and reduce the power consumption of Lorentz Force-type Magnetic Bearing (LFMB), the air gap flux density distribution of LFMB has been studied. The uniformity of air gap flux density is defined to qualify the uniform degree of the air gap flux density distribution. Considering the consumption, the average value of flux density is defined as well. Some optimal designs and analyses of LFMB are carried out by finite element simulation. The strength of the permanent magnet is taken into consideration during the machining process. To verify the design and simulation, a high-precision instrument is employed to measure the 3-dimensional magnetic flux density of LFMB. After measurement and calculation, the uniform degree of magnetic flux density distribution reaches 0.978 and the average value of the flux density is 0.482T. Experimental results show that the optimal design is effective and some useful advice can be obtained for further research.

  • Magnetically suspended sensitive gyroscopes (MSSGs) provide an interesting alternative for achieving precious attitude angular measurement. To effectively reduce the measurement error caused by the non-uniformity of the air-gap flux density in a MSSG, this paper proposes a novel compensation method based on measuring and modeling of the air-gap flux density. The angular velocity measurement principle and the structure of the MSSG are described, and then the characteristic of the air-gap flux density has been analyzed in detail. Next, to compensate the flux density distribution error and improve the measurement accuracy of the MSSG, a real-time compensation method based on the online measurement with hall probes is designed. The common issues caused by the non-uniformity of the air-gap flux density can be effectively resolved by the proposed method in high-precision magnetically suspended configurations. Comparative simulation results before and after compensation have verified the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed compensation method.

  • The Vehicle Dynamic Simulator(VDS) is a key equipment of the performance verification of attitude control subsystem and it simulates the real dynamic environment that spacecraft undergoes during mission operation. All the software models and hardware interfaces necessary for the closed-loop simulation of the spacecraft dynamics are implemented.

  • In general satellite verification process, the AOCS (Attitude & Orbit Control Subsystem) should be verified through several kinds of verification test which can be divided into two major category like FBT (Fixed Bed Test) and polarity test. And each test performed in different levels such as ETB (Electrical Test Bed) and satellite level. The test method of FBT is to simulate satellite dynamics with sensors and actuators supported by necessary environmental models in ETB level. The VDS (Vehicle Dynamic Simulator) try to make the real situation as possible as the on-board processor will undergo after launch. The purpose of FBT test is to verify that attitude control logic function and hardware interface is designed as expected with closed loop simulation. The VDS is one of major equipments for performing FBT and consists of software and hardware parts. The VDS operates in VME environments with target board, several commercial boards and custom boards based on the VxWorks real time operating system. In order to make time synchronization between VDS and satellite on-board processor, high reliable semaphore was implemented to make synchronization with the interrupt signal from on-board processor. In this paper, the real-time operating environment used on VDS equipment is introduced, and the hardware and software configurations of VDS summarized in the systematic point of view. Also, we try to figure out the operational concept of VDS and AOCS verification test method with close-loop simulation.

  • Magnetically suspended sensitive gyroscopes (MSSGs) provide an interesting alternative for achieving precious attitude angular measurement. To effectively reduce the measurement error caused by dynamic imbalance, this paper proposes a novel compensation method based on analysis and modeling of the error for a MSSG. Firstly, the angular velocity measurement principle of the MSSG is described. Then the analytical model of dynamic imbalance error has been established by solving the complex coefficient differential dynamic equations of the rotor. The generation mechanism and changing regularity of the dynamic imbalance error have been revealed. Next, a compensation method is designed to compensate the dynamic imbalance error and improve the measurement accuracy of the MSSG. The common issues caused by dynamic imbalance can be effectively resolved by the proposed method in gyroscopes with a levitating rotor. Comparative simulation results before and after compensation have verified the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed compensation method.

  • In this study, we analyzed the resistance performance and running attitude of a catamaran by numerical analysis with a conventional bow, which is generally applied, and a reverse, protruding bow. The shape of the reverse bow was compared through numerical analysis and model tests. The reverse bow shape showed an improved wave pattern by shifting the generation position of the forward divergent wave to the aft in comparison with a conventional bow shape. This effect was found to be effective in determining resistance and stable running attitude. The hull resistance improved by about 2.95 %. The comparative numerical analysis and model test for the reverse bow shape completed in this study should be useful for future hull design application.
