The apparatus and method for diagnosing the state of a power cable and measuring the remaining life thereof according to the present invention includes a Weibull modeling unit, a distance limiting unit, a data type classifying unit, a quantity representing unit, a normalization unit, a 3D constructing unit, a risk level calculating unit, and a remaining life measuring unit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a ship collision avoidance method using a psychological character of a ship officer that can provide support allowing ships to avoid collision between one another by using the psychological character of ship officers in order to prevent marine accidents.

Abstract: Disclosed is a mobile robot for detecting and repairing damages of a hull, including: a mobile robot unit which includes at least one frame to which motor-driven drive wheels are installed, frame connectors which flexibly connect the frames with each other, and at least one robot electromagnet and adsorption module mounted on each of the frames, and is configured to be attached to the hull through the robot electromagnet so as to move or stop on a surface of the hull by the drive wheels; a stage unit which includes a rechargeable battery mounted therein to supply power to the mobile robot unit, and a docking module provided to dock with or separate from the mobile robot unit; and a connection line configured to be wound or unwound while receiving tension controlled by the stage unit, and electrically connected between the mobile robot unit and the stage unit.

Abstract: At least one resonance chamber is disposed around an air passage channel passing through a window or a wall, and the air passage channel and the resonance chamber are separated from each other by a porous sound absorber. When sound and air pass through the air passage channel, the sound is absorbed and cut off by the resonance chambers, and the air passes through the air passage type channel. As a result, an air passage type soundproof window or wall through which the air passes and by which the sound is cut off can be manufactured, and a water passage type soundproof window or wall through which water passes and by which the sound is cut off in the same principle can be manufactured.
