The Multi-Mission Unmanned Surface Vehicle(MMUSV), which is manufactured using glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic(FRP) material, is designed to perform a surveillance and reconnaissance on the sea. Various navigation sensors, such as RADAR, RIDAR, camera, are mounted on a mast to perform an autonomous navigation. And a dummy gun is mounted on the deck of the MMUSV for a target tracking and disposal. It is necessary to analyze a strength for structures mounted on the deck because the MMUSV performs missions under a severe sea state. In this paper, a strength analysis of the mast structure is performed on static loads and lateral external loads to verify an adequacy of the designed mast through a series of simulations. Based on the results of captive model tests, a strength analysis for a heave motion of the mast structure is conducted using a simulation tool. Also a simulation and fatigue test for a mounting part between the MMUSV and the dummy gun are performed using a specimen. The simulation and test results are represented that a structure of the mast and mounting part of the dummy gun are appropriately designed.he impact amount are performed through simulation and experiments.

The purpose of the study is to develop a questionnaire that examines unskeptical attitudes in scientific inquiry context. The questionnaire items were developed through literature research, expert review, and statistical analyses for validity and the differences in scores were identified by gender and tracks. A total of 363 high school students participated in the study. To explore the validity evidence of items, the Rasch analysis and the reliability of internal consistency were performed, and the two-way ANOVA was performed to compare the scores of the unskeptical attitudes between gender and academic track. Self-reporting and Likert-scaling 23 items were developed to measure unskeptical attitudes in scientific inquiry context. The items were developed in the sub-domain of scientific inquiry: 'questioning and hypothesis generating,' 'experiment designing,' and 'explaining and interpreting.' Second, the validity and reliability of the unskeptical were identified in a rigorous method. The validity of items were identified by multi-dimensional partial score model analysis through the Rasch model, and all 23 items were found to be fit to model. Various reliability evidences were also found to be appropriate. It was found that there were no significant differences of unskeptical attitude score between the gender and academic track except one comparison. The developed questionnaire could be used to check an unskeptical attitude in the course of scientific inquiry and to compare the effects of scientific inquiry classes.

This paper proposes high-performance SAO(Sample Adaptive Offset) in HEVC(High Efficiency Video Coding) encoder for Ultra HD video processing in real time. SAO is a newly adopted technique belonging to the in-loop filter in HEVC. The proposed SAO encoder hardware architecture uses three-layered buffers to minimize memory access time and to simplify pixel processing and also uses only adder, subtractor, shift register and feed-back comparator to reduce area. Furthermore, the proposed architecture consists of pipelined pixel classification and applying SAO parameters, and also classifies four consecutive pixels into EO and BO concurrently. These result in the reduction of processing time and computation. The proposed SAO encoder architecture is designed by Verilog HDL, and implemented by 180k logic gates in TSMC $0.18{\mu}m$ process. At 110MHz, the proposed SAO encoder can support 4K Ultra HD video encoding at 30fps in real time.

Cheesemaking is believed to have been first practiced in prehistoric times, about 9,500 years ago, in the area around the Fertile Crescent of Mesopotamia and they left legacy in the name of cheese. Father Chi Chong-Hwan(Didier Serstevens) started for his provost in Imsil Catholic church in 1964. In 1968, cheese was first produced Camembert in Korea by Father Chi Chong-hwan, and then made Mozzarella in 1970, Cheddar in 1972. Father Chi lay the foundation of a cheese industry in Korea. The processed cheese market was highly grown after putting on the market of sliced cheese in the late 1980s, and the various products that complied with wellbeing trends such as organic and high functional cheese produced in the 2000s. The natural cheese opens up a new domestic market after producing Camembert and Brie cheese in the end of 2004. At present, major trends in cheese are authenticity, bold flavor, snack sophistication and tradition. Mozzarella, Parmesan, Cheddar, Provolone, Feta cheese still top in foodservice. In Korea, production of natural cheese is decreasing by the influence of the imported cheese. Production of processed cheese is increasing and total consumption of cheese is also increasing year by year.

Agile methodologies in software development, including the development of artificial intelligence software, have been widespread over the past several years. In spite of the popularity of agile methodologies in practice, there is a lack of empirical evidence to identify determinants of success of software projects in which agile methods are used. To understand the role of clients in software project where agile methods are used, we examine the effect of client-side factors, including lack of user involvement, unrealistic client expectations, and constant changes of requirements on project success from practitioners' perspective. Survey methods are used in this study. Data were collected by means of online survey to IT professionals who have experience with software development methodologies, and ordered logit regression is used to analyze the survey data. Results of our study imply the following managerial findings. First, user involvement is critical to project success to take advantage of agile methods. Second, it is interesting that, with an agile method, constant changes of client's requirements is not a negative factor but a positive factor of project success. Third, unrealistic client expectations do negatively affect project success even with agile methods.

Kinematic analysis determines the stability of rock slope by analyzing the relationship between the slope face orientation and the discontinuity orientation. In this study, terrestrial LiDAR was used to obtain a large amount of discontinuity orientation data and then, the probabilistic characteristics of the orientation data obtained using terrestrial LiDAR were analyzed. Subsequently, the probabilistic kinematic analysis was carried out using the discontinuity orientations generated randomly from Fisher function in Monte Carlo simulation. In addition, the probabilistic kinematic analysis was also performed using the actual orientation data obtained from the terrestrial LiDAR to compare their results. Consequently, the results of both probabilistic analyses showed similar results. Therefore, if sufficient orientation data are provided by other means such as terrestrial LiDAR, the probabilistic analysis will show reasonable results using the actual field data without randomly generating orientation data. In addition, the deterministic kinematic analysis was also carried out using representative orientation of discontinuity sets. The analysis result of the probabilistic analysis showed similar results with the deterministic analysis because the dispersion of the discontinuity orientations in a joint set is not large.
