This study presents the numerical investigation of the trajectory of rocket launched from a helicopter. The nonlinear mathematical model of armed configuration of UH-60 helicopter was developed while Hydra 70 unguided rocket was modeled to simulate the rocket behavior. The effects of various inflow models on the launched rocket trajectory are obtained. Similarly, rocket launch simulation was performed to determine the unsafe flight maneuver condition where the rocket trajectory is critically close to the helicopter main rotor tip path plane.

In this study, it was evaluated the fire risk during welding cutting tasks. Welding-cutting machines are representatively used at construction sites. Inverter AC/DC TIG welding macnine and inverter air plasma cutting machine were used in experiments. Temperature of spreaded cinders was measured using a thermal camera. Cinder sizes and spread range were measured according to the height and input current. It was also evaluated the fire risk during welding-cutting process, when flammable materials were located around the working area. There were used hay, dust fence, urethane foam, vinyl, paper and oil as flammable materials. Temperature of spreaded cinders was reached at about $450^{\circ}C$. Cinders were spread approximately 4.7 m, when a worker carried out cutting process at 2.5 m height. The possibility of a fire is very high, when flammable materials were located around the working area.

The main objective is to predict the future degradation and maintenance budget for a suspension bridge system. Bayesian inference is applied to find the posterior probability density function of the source parameters (damage indices and serviceability), given ten years of maintenance data. The posterior distribution of the parameters is sampled using a Markov chain Monte Carlo method. The simulated risk prediction for decreased serviceability conditions are posterior distributions based on prior distribution and likelihood of data updated from annual maintenance tasks. Compared with conventional linear prediction model, the proposed quadratic model provides highly improved convergence and closeness to measured data in terms of serviceability, risky factors, and maintenance budget for bridge components, which allows forecasting a future performance and financial management of complex infrastructures based on the proposed quadratic stochastic regression model.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical risk according to the applicator heterogeneity, mislocation, and tissue heterogeneity correction through a dose verification program during brachytherapy of cervical cancer. We performed image processing with MATLAB on images acquired with CT simulator. The source was modeled and stochiometric calibration and Monte-Carlo algorithm were applied based on dwell time and location to calculate the dose, and the secondary cancer risk was evaluated in the dose verification program. The result calculated by correcting for applicator and tissue heterogeneity showed a maximum dose of about 25% higher. In the bladder, the difference in excess absolute risk according to the heterogeneity correction was not significant. In the rectum, the difference in excess absolute risk was lower than that calculated by correcting applicator and tissue heterogeneity compared to the water-based calculation. In the femur, the water-based calculation result was the lowest, and the result calculated by correcting the applicator and tissue heterogeneity was 10% higher. A maximum of 14% dose difference occurred when the applicator mislocation was 20 mm in the Z-axis. In a future study, it is expected that a system that can independently verify the treatment plan can be developed by automating the interface between the treatment planning system and the dose verification program.

최근들어 항만건설 및 선박블록 운송의 증가로 대형 부선을 예인하는 예부선과 침몰 선박 인양 및 해상교량공사 등을 위한 해상크레인 운송선단의 통항이 매년 증가 추세에 있다. 우리나라에서 이들 선박의 주 항로는 남해와 서해 연안으로, 이 지역은 도서가 산재해 있고 협수로가 많은 지형적 특성과 연안으로 근접하여 항해 시 강한 조류의 영향을 받으며, 또한 어망과 조업중인 어선들과 많이 조우하게 된다. 특히, 돌발적인 해양 기상적 특징을 포함하고 있다. 이러한 영향에 따라서 이 해역을 통항하는 예부선 및 해상크레인 선단의 조종성능이 크게 저하되어 해양사고의 위험성이 고조되고 있다. 이에 따라서, 이 연구에서는 해상크레인의 연안해역 예항시 안전하게 항해할 수 있는 적절한 조종 방법을 고찰하여 안전운항에 기여하고자 한다.

UHF RFID 시스템에서는 출력제한의 엄격히 규제됨에 따라 리더의 출력신호에 의존하는 패시브 태그의 후방산란(Backscattering)되는 신호는 매우 낮은 전력을 가진 미약한 신호가 되어 왜곡과 잡음의 영향을 크게 받는다. 이러한 문제는 신호검출을 어렵게 만들고 이를 개선하기 위하여 리더의 시스템은 복잡해지고 있다. 또한 현장에서 신호 검출을 위하여 근접거리에 리더를 설치하거나 협소한 공간에 다수의 리더를 설치하여 신호 검출을 하고 있다. 이러한 설치 방법은 사고의 위험이나 리더 간의 간섭에 따른 신호 검출을 더욱 어렵게 하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 태그의 패키징과 리더 안테나의 개선을 통한 태그의 인식거리 개선을 통해 신호검출의 신뢰성을 확보하는 방안에 대해서 제안하고자 한다.

해상교통안전진단제도의 시행으로, 해상교통에 영향을 미칠 가능성이 있는 모든 건설 사업은 필히 선박운항자 관점에서 그 안전성을 검토하여야 한다. 진단제도의 정량적 평가항목 중에, 선박이 장애물이나 위험지역과의 충돌확률을 평가하는 근접도 평가항목이 있는데, 이는 항로상의 어떤 단면에서의 선박 궤적 분포가 정규 분포를 한다는 가정에 근거하고 있다. 한편, 진단제도의 또 하나의 정량적 평가기법중 하나인 해상교통류 시뮬레이션에서는, 대상 선박들의 예상 항차수로부터 선박을 통계적으로 발생시키는 기법을 사용하는데, 여기에서는 항로상의 특정 지점을 연속해서 통과하는 선박들의 시간 간격이 Poisson 분포를 따른다는 가정을 사용한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 기본적인 가정들이 적합한지를 고찰하기 위하여, 광양 및 인천항에서 실측한 해상교통현황 조사 결과를 분석하였다.

최근 차량에 설치된 단말기를 통해 길안내 서비스, 교통정보 서비스 등 다양한 정보를 제공하는 텔레매틱스 서비스가 활발하게 연구되고 있다. 하지만 현재 대다수의 텔레매틱스 서비스는 최대 15m 의 공간오차를 가진 GPS 기술을 이용하기 때문에 차량의 정확한 위치정보를 파악하기는 힘들다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 무선 센서노드를 이용해 GPS 보다 정확한 차량의 위치정보와 속도를 감지하고 노드 간 통신 프로토콜로서 Telematics Scheduling Protocol(TSP)[1]을 사용하여 교차로 중앙에 위치한 베이스 스테이션으로 전송하여 교차로에서 발생할 수 있는 차량 충돌을 예측하며 충돌 위험 정보를 교차로에 근접한 자동차에게 알려주는 텔레매틱스 교통안전시스템[1]을 소개한다. 또한 교통안전시스템으로서의 신뢰성과 실시간성을 비교평가하기 위하여 TSP 프로토콜, IEEE 802.11[2]과 802.15.4[3]를 대상으로 네트워크 시뮬레이터 ns-2[4]를 이용하여 시뮬레이션한다.

This paper illustrates the trajectory design of drift distance recovery after initial launch and proximity operation when verifying rendezvous/docking technology using nanosatellites. The rendezvous/docking is a technology that is the basis of on-orbit servicing technology and is a preemptive process essential for approaching a target object. In particular, since it is difficult to verify in space, nanosatellites have recently been used to reduce the risk and cost of the development stage. Therefore, this paper not only introduces the configuration and specifications of thrusters for nanosatellites but also designs relative trajectories that can take into account the thrust limitations which come from the small size and low power of nanosatellites. In addition, we intend to be helpful in later designing scenarios according to the improvement of available thruster performance through comparison of trajectories and thrust usage with cases without thrust limitations.

Marine accidents caused by dragging anchors occur constantly due to enlargement of ships' size and unusual weather conditions. Nevertheless, vessel operators rely on their experience because the calculations of actual holding power and external forces are complex and inconvenient. The purpose of this study was to propose a program for the anchor dragging risk assessment in order to provide crew and VTSO with the information to determine easily the danger of dragging and take appropriate action. The input data in this program were composed of the ship's basic particulars, anchoring condition, and external environment etc. on calculating for the wind pressure, frictional force, drift force, and holding power. Three dragging anchor accidents were applied to the program's data input at the time of the day, then the result was assessed by 'warning', which was verified with a high confidence. As a result, the risk of dragging anchors can be predicted in advance through this program. In further studies, it is necessary to simplify the input data and improve user convenience through automatic input from various equipment.
