Development of indicators for quantifying agricultural work stress due to mechanical and environmental factors
-
Development of indicators that can quantify agricultural work stress caused by mechanical and environmental factors by measuring the work stress of farmers using EEG instrument.
-
It can provide design guideline for ergonomic agricultural field machines as well as policy or legal guideline for improving poor rural working environment, and can contribute to improve the agricultural work efficiency of aging and feminized rural manpower.
Simulation analysis to prevent lateral overturning and backward rollover of agricultural field machines
-
Dynamic simulation using commercial software to analyze stability of agricultural field machines (stability analysis according to ground condition, travel speed, turning radius, turning speed, etc).
-
Overturning and rollover performance evaluation of agricultural field machines by comparing with the test result of certified testing service institute and analyzing in further various conditions.
Smart collector and energy recovery for agricultural by-products
-
Some unused agricultural by-products such as pruning stems of fruit tree have a high potential to be utilized as biomass energy.
-
The objective of this research is to develop a smart collector to automatically collect agricultural by-products, and to make energy through pelletization of the by-products with maximum efficiency.
