Since the early 2000s, Korea has continued to increase the proportion of the elderly population due to low fertility and increased life expectancy. As a result, Korea has now entered the aging society. Because of this demographic change, proportion of active elderly have increased, and many academics, such as sociology, economics, and psychology, have conducted various studies on the active elderly. This study focused on active elderly based on the activity theory of old age and the positive effect of small community participation activity on the elderly. The purpose of this study is to examine whether active elderly' participation in everyday activities, small community participation of the elderly affect citizen participation actively in society as a citizen, and in the process, mediates the effect of small community cohesion and the moderating effect of small community selfishness. This study performed a stepwise regression analysis and a hierarchical regression analysis of 700 elderly people who are participated actively in various small communities. As a result, the partial mediating effect of small community cohesion was shown in the relationship between participation in everyday activities and citizen participation, and the moderating effect of small community selfishness was also shown. These findings suggest that government and interested parties need to develop and implement policies for the small community participation of elderly citizens in consideration of their small community activities, small community cohesion and small community egoism.

The effects of three fuselage head shapes and nonplanar ground surface on the aerodynamic characteristics of FAST fuselages are investigated using a boundary element method. Wind tunnel test is also performed to validate the present method and to identify the wall effect on the frictional drag which cannot be analyzed using the present method. It is found that the channel has an effect of increasing the lift of those investigated fuselages. The optimal head shape depends on the design conditions of the FAST and its guideway channel. Comparing the calculated induced drag with the measured total drag, it can be concluded that the profile drag is independent of the ground height. Thus, the present numerical method can be applied to the conceptual design of the high-speed ground transporters if only the profile drag of the vehicle in free flight is assumed to be known.

본 논문은 이족 로봇에서의 효과적으로 동체를 탐지하는 방법에 대하여 논한다. 이족 로봇의 움직임은 모바일 로봇의 움직임과는 달리 종횡의 움직임이 동시에 나타나게 된다. 따라서 로봇의 비젼이 움직이는 상황에서 움직이는 물체를 탐지해야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 로봇의 움직임을 분석하여 로봇의 움직임을 보정하여 보다 높은 성능의 동체 탐지 성능을 높였다. 제안된 방법을 실제의 로봇으로부터의 영상을 통하여 실험한 결과 우수한 탐지 성능을 얻을 수 있었다.

This paper presents the rocket motor support structure to position solid rocket engine within a missile fuselage. When the rocket motor is mounted inside a missile fuselage, fuselage structure must be designed to withstand various structural problems resulting from inserted rocket motor such as axial thrust force, shock/vibration, axial deformation of the rocket motor tank in addition to the flight loads. The motor support structure system proposed in this paper proved to be very simple and efficient while satisfying all the design requirements.

In this study, transonic aeroelastic response analyses have been conducted for the DLR-F4(wing-body) aircraft configuration considering shockwave and flow separation effects. The developed fluid-structure coupled analysis system is applied for aeroelastic computations combining computational structural dynamics(CSD), finite element method(FEM) and computational fluid dynamics(CFD) in the time domain. It can give very accurate and useful engineering data on the structural dynamic design of advanced flight vehicles. For the nonlinear unsteady aerodynamics in high transonic flow region, Navier-Stokes equations using the structured grid system have been applied to wing-body configurations. In transonic flight region, the characteristics of static and dynamic aeroelastic responses have been investigated for a typical wing-body configuration model. Also, it is typically shown that the current computation approach can yield realistic and practical results for aircraft design and test engineers.

To achieve the best performance, the concept of drag reduced and power increased Human Power Aircraft(HPA) was presented by analyzing the HPAs in the world. To participate the '2012 HPA competition' in Korea, the streamlined fuselage and the simultaneous use of hands and feet were introduced. Furthermore the CFD analysis and power unit design were performed to verify the concept. In order to make the best use of streamlined fuselage effect, the fuselage shape design is important and to supply the hand power to the power unit, the control system design is important, also the test flight is required for validation.

50kW급 동체회전형 파력발전시스템(WEC;wave energy converter)의 전력변환장치(PTO; power take-off)를 설계 제작한 후 성능시험을 하였다. 파력발전시스템은 2개의 실린더형 동체가 회전관절로 연결된 구조로 수면의 반정도 잠기는 구조로 되어있다. 파랑에 의해 유도된 회전관전의 움직임이 유압실린더에 힘을 가해주며, 유압실린더는 고압의 작동유를 축압기를 경유하여 발전기에 체결된 유압모터로 공급한다. 유압식 PTO은 유압실린더가 왕복운동하는 움직임을 이용하여 고품질의 전력을 생산하는데 효과전인 수단을 제공한다. 파력발전시스템의 경제성은 PTO의 에너지 변환 효율에 크게 의존한다. 발전기를 AC 380V 전력계통에 연계시킨 후, 발전기에서 나오는 출력이 5, 20, 35, 43kW 일때 PTO 전체와 개별기기에 대한 효율을 측정하였다. 본 논문에서 유압식 PTO시스템의 설계에 대해 설명하였으며 효율 향상에 초점을 맞추어 PTO 성능대해 분석하였다.

In a bank-to-turn(BTT) missile, if a 2-gimbaled seeker was stabilized using a 2-axis rate gyro mounted along its primary axis, the change of line of sight(LOS) measured by the seeker would be induced by rolling effects due to bank-to-turn(BTT) steering as well as an actual change. It is observed that the body-coupled effects in a homing loop of BTT missile are mainly concerned with the spurious target maneuver and the coupling due to the rate gyro misalignments. In this paper, we formulate a simple linear BTT homing loop model with seeker model including each body-coupling. With the model, we analyze the effects of the couplings on the homing loop stability, and propose a direct linear compensator for the coupling to recover the stability.

The airloads and structural loads of Light Civil Helicopter (LCH) rotor are investigated using a loose CFD/CSD coupling. The structural dynamics model for LCH 5-bladed rotor cwith elastomeric bearing and inter-bladed damper is constructed using CAMRAD-II. Either isolated rotor or rotor-fuselage model is used to identify the effect of the fuselage on the aeromechanics behavior at a cruise speed of 0.28. The fuselage effect is shown to be marginal on the aeromechanics predictions of LCH rotor, though the effect can be non-negligible for the tail structure due to the prevailing root vortices strengthened by the fuselage upwash. A lifting-line based comprehensive analysis is also conducted to verify the CFD/CSD coupled analysis. The comparison study shows that the comprehensive analysis predictions are generally in good agreements with CFD/CSD coupled results. However, the predicted comprehensive analysis results underestimate peak-to-peak values of blade section airloads and elastic motions due to the limitation of unsteady aerodynamic predictions. Particularly, significant discrepancies appear in the structural loads with apparent phase differences.

The aerodynamic characteristics of FAST(Future Air Speed Transit) combined the body with tandem wing flying over nonplanar ground surface are investigated by using a boundary element method. To validate the present method, results of the present analysis are compared with the experiment and other numerical results. The arrangement of the tandem wing is determined to secure sufficient aero-levitation force and the stability through the analysis of the aerodynamic characteristics of the FAST. The FAST has the maximum lift characteristics when the tandem wing with lower endplate is located at the front side and the rear side of the body. The stability of the FAST can be secured by using the flaperon of the tandem wing.
