We have conducted a numerical simulation under three-dimensional unsteady conditions in order to analyze the characteristics of flow and the distribution of $CO_2$ agent concentration according to the number of $CO_2$ agent nozzle. The engine room of a ship was selected as a protection space, and flow fields and $CO_2$ concentration fields were measured. In case of increasing the number of $CO_2$ nozzle from 2 nozzles to 4 nozzles, the distribution of CO2 concentration showed low, and in case of increasing the number of $CO_2$ nozzle to above 6 nozzles, the recirculating flow affected to all region was generated. In case of increasing the number of $CO_2$ agent nozzle to above 4 nozzles, the iso-concentration line below 0.36 expanded or contracted slightly. Therefor, the proper number and the arrangement of $CO_2$ agent nozzle are considered when $CO_2$ fire fighting system is designed.

Large amounts of information on individuals is available to many organizations and data users and government agencies release microdata files from their survey data or administrative records data. However, if a microdata file is released without any limitation, an invasion of privacy is likely to occur. Therefore, in creating a microdata file, agencies attempt to eliminate disclosure risk of the file while maintaining maximum utility of the data. In this paper, we introduce the concept of disclosure risk, identification and uniqueness. Also, we show the method for creating a 2% microdata file using the 2005 Korean census microdata.

A password-based authenticated tripartite key exchange protocol based on A. Joux's protocol was proposed. By using encryption scheme with shared password, we can resolve man-in-the-middle attack and lack of authentication problems. We also suggested a scheme to avoid the offline dictionary attack to which symmetric encryption schemes are vulnerable. The proposed protocol does not require a trusted party which is required in certificate or identity based authentication schemes. Therefore in a ad hoc network which is difficult to install network infrastructure, the proposed protocol would be very useful. The proposed protocol is more efficient in computation aspect than any existing password-based authenticated tripartite key exchange protocols. When it is used as a base line protocol of tree based group key exchange protocol, the computational weak points of the proposed protocol are compensated.

The objective of this work is to investigate fluid mixing phenomena related to pressurized thermal shock(PTS) in a pressurized water reactor(PWR) vessel downcomer during transient cooldown with direct vessel injection(DVI) using test models. The test model designs were based on ABB Combustion Engineering(C-E) System 80＋ reactor geometry. A cold leg small break loss-of-coolant accident(LOCA) md a main steam line teak were selected as the potential PTS events for the C-E System 80＋. This work consist of two parts. The first part provides the visualization tests of the fluid mixing between DVI fluid and existing coolant in the downcomer region, and the second part is to compare the results of thermal mixing tests with DVI in the other test model. Row visualization tests with DVI have clarified the physical interaction between DVI fluid and primary coolant during transient cooldown. A significant temperature drop was observed in the downcomer during the tests of a small break LOCA Measured transient temperature profiles agree well with the predictions by the REMIX code for a small break LOCA and with the calculations by the COMMIX-1B code for a steam line break event.

In this paper, the measurements of ELF electric and magnetic fields due to double circuit 345[kV} transmission lines are made using planar-type electric field sensor and multitum loop-type magnetic field sensor, and the magnitudes of electric and magnetic fields are illustrated by a three-dimensional plot. Also, in order to predict the magnetic field strength with lad variation, a typical daily load current curves of the transmission lines are displayed because the magnetic field is changed with load current. experimental results of ELF electric and magnetic fields along center line versus lateral distance are compared with the theoretical values computed by using the FIELDS program. The electric field intensity in and around a transmission tower is lowered, and the greatest point of the magnetic field is shifted to the heavy load line but generally is given the trend that the peak value appear at the central part of the transmission tower. The magnitudes of the maximum electric and magnetic fields in the vicinity of a transmission tower are less than 3.5[kV/m] and $20[{\mu}T]$, respectively. The measured electric and magnetic fields are satisfied with limits and guidelines recommended by various authorized international institutes.

This study aims to provide helpful suggestions for understanding the effect of high EGR on DME HCCI combustion. This study determined which between oxygen partial pressure and oxygen concentration was the main factor affecting the LTHR heating ratio. Furthermore, EGR and the supercharging effect were investigated. To define the parameters for the EGR ratio and supercharging pressure, a numerical analysis of the chemical reaction was conducted under the following conditions: (1) variation of EGR ratio, oxygen concentration, and oxygen content; (2) variation of oxygen partial pressure while the oxygen concentration was almost constant; and (3) variation of oxygen concentration while oxygen partial pressure was constant with EGR and supercharging. The results show that an increase in EGR reduces the combustion duration. On the other hand, an increase in boost pressure increases the combustion duration. Finally, the EGR and boost pressure affect the amount of increase in LTHR.

In the earlier days, when the diesel engine was used for ship propulsion, its shaft had often been broken by uncertain causes. Bauer suggested, for the first time in 1900, that it resulted from the torsional vibration of the shaft system. From 1901 to 1902, Gumbel and Frahm found out that shaft failures were caused by the resonance of the shaft system in critical speed. Since that time, valuable theories, empirical formulae and methods of vibration analysis were introduced by many investigators such as Geiger, Holzer, Lewis, Carter, Porter, Constant, Timoshenko, Dorey, Den Hartog, Tuplin, Ker Wilson, Bradbury etc. But, as the calculation of the damping energy involves very complicated and uncertain factors, the estimated amplitude of the torsional vibration is incorrect and uncertain. Besides, as high-powered engines have been installed on large vessels or special vessels and exciting force has been increased, new problems of the torsional vibration have continuously occurred. Although we can calculate the approximate natural frequencies or estimate their amplitude and additional stress in the design stage, through the above mentioned studies, the results of the calculations are unsatisfactory, and so much time is needed to carry out the calculation by hand. The authors have developed a computer program to calculate its natural frequencies, the amplitudes and additional stresses of the torsional vibration in the marine diesel engine shafting. In developing the computer program, the authors have paid the special attention to the calculation of the damping energy. To verify the reliability of the developed computer program, the torsional vibration of several propulsion shaftings which are driven by the diesel engine has been analyzed. The results calculted by the authors' computer program show good agreements with those of the actual measurements and are better than the results of engine maker's calculation.

In this study, we have evaluated the effect of amplitude and frequency perturbation of EGG signal for single vowels associated with laryngeal pathology. The normal EGG signal was properly characterized by an autoregressive model which has an optimal order of ninth using the parametric method. This can be analyzed by determining the transfer function. Perturbations in the fundamental pitch and in the peak amplitude of EGG signal measured with a four-electrode system using the modulation/demodulation techniques were investigated for the purpose of developing a decision criteria for the laryngeal function analysis. The abnormal EGG signal has nonperiodic and unstable characteristics. It can be discriminated by the calculation of opening and closing time of glottis using the EGG signal. In case of normal and abnormal subjects, m$\pm$0.5*sd was discriminating line for frequency perturbation and m$\pm$2*sd for normal amplitude perturbations, respectively. Also, The normal and abnormal cases of the subjects can be discriminated effectively using the pattern of attractor derived with Hilbert transform of EGG signal.

A pneumatic driving solenoid valve operates pneumatic control devices by opening/closing operating flow passage when the command is given by control system for the liquid-propellant feeding system of space launch vehicle. The simulation model of pneumatic driving solenoid valve is designed with AMESim to verify the designs and evaluate the dynamic characteristics and pneumatic behaviors of valve. To validate a valve simulation model, the simulation results of their operating durations of valve by AMESim analysis are compared with the results of experiments. In addition, the results of internal flow simulation with FLUENT are utilized to improve the accuracy of valve-modeling. Using the model, we analyze performance of valve; opening/closing pressure, operating time on various design factors; shape of control valve seat, drainage seat, rate of sealing diameter, volume of control cavity. This study will serve as one of reference guides to enhance the developmental efficiency of ventilation-relief valves with the various operating conditions, which shall be used in Korea Space Launch Vehicle-II.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been considered as a promising method for reliably monitoring both civil and military environments under hazardous or dangerous conditions. Due to the special property and difference from the traditional wireless network, the lifetime of the whole network is the most important aspect. The bottleneck nodes widely exist in WSNs and lead to decrease the lifetime of the whole network. In order to find out the bottleneck nodes, the traditional centralized bottleneck detection method MINCUT has been proposed as a solution for WSNs. However they are impractical for the networks that have a huge number of nodes. This paper first proposes a distributed algorithm called DBND (Distributed Bottleneck Node detection) that can reduce the time for location information collection, lower the algorithm complexity and find out the bottleneck nodes quickly. We also give two simple suggestions of how to solve the bottleneck problem. The simulation results and analysis show that our algorithm achieves much better performance and our solutions can relax the bottleneck problem, resulting in the prolonging of the network lifetime.
