Among various De-NOx technologies, Urea-based Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems are known to be the most effective in marine diesel applications. The spraying and mixing behavior of the urea-water solution has a decisive effect on the system's net efficiency. Therefore, in this study, the spray behavior and ammonia uniformity with and without a static mixer were analyzed by CFD in order to optimize the SCR system. The results showed that the static mixer significantly affected the uniformity of velocity and ammonia concentration. Static mixers may be especially suited for marine SCR systems with space constraints.

조선 산업에서의 이익 극대화를 위해서는, 공기 단축을 통한 매출 증대, 주어진 생산 자원(인력, 설비 등)의 효율적인 이용을 통한 생산비 절감이 필수적인 사안이다. 다시 말하면, 효율적인 자원의 이용으로 선박의 건조 공기를 줄임으로써 조선 산업에서의 이익 극대화를 도모할 수 있고 이는 효과적인 생산 계획과 관리를 통해 얻을 수 있다. 조선 산업에서의 생산 계획과 관리는 내업, 선행, 선내 등 선박 건조의 전 과정에서 이루어지고 있는데, 조선 산업은 타 산업에 비해 환경변화에 따른 단기간의 불확실성은 비교적 적은 반면에, 가공, 절단, 조립, 의장, 도장, 선행탑재, 탑재, 안벽 작업 등 다단계 제조 프로세스가 장기간에 걸쳐 상당히 복잡하게 구성되어 있다. 또한, 유연하게 적용할 수 있는 인적자원과 공정순서, 그리고 각종 시간적 공간적 자원 제약 등으로 인하여 효과적이고 일관된 생산 계획을 신속하게 수립하기가 어려울 뿐만 아니라, 주문 생산 방식이기 때문에 정확한 일정계획 데이터의 생성도 어려운 실정이다. 본 연구는, 조선의 혁신적인 생산관리 능력 향상을 지원하기 위한 "조선 통합 생산계획 시스템 개발" 에 관련된 연구이다. 본 연구에서는 조선 생산계획에 적합한 일정계획 방법론 및 엔진 소프트웨어를 활용하고 총체적인 생산계획 및 일정계획 업무의 개념 재정립을 통하여, 통합 최적화를 실시간에 지원하는 조선 최적 일정계획 시스템 구축에 궁극적인 목적을 두고 있다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 조선 프로세스와 일정계획 업무규칙을 분석하고 이를 바탕으로 "조선 최적 일정계획 시스템"을 개발하였다. 조선 최적 일정계획 시스템은 블록, PE, 탑재, 선내 단계의 일정계획 최적화와 What-if Simulation을 지원하기 위하여 ILOG Solver/scheduler로 구현하였으며, 구현된 시스템에 대해 실제 계획에서 사용하는 데이터를 대상으로 다양한 최적화 기능에 대한 실험을 실시하였다. 실제 데이터를 이용한 실험결과, 풀이시간과 최적해 측면 모두에서 비교적 만족할 만한 결과를 보여주었다.교적 만족할 만한 결과를 보여주었다.

In order to develop commercial model of 10kW dish-Stirling solar thermal power system, modification for the exiting facility was taken for a year as a Leading Project in KIER. During the project, solar tracking system, control and monitoring system and high durability reflector were developed and long term operation were performed. The solar tracking system was tested for four months to investigate the degree of precision and adapted to the control system for an actual operation from October in 2009. The sun tracking accuracy of ${\pm}4$ mrad using modified control system was obtained and the system operated successfully during the experimental period. The monitoring system displays engine pressure, electric generation amounts, generator RPM, receiver temperatures, and etc. from Stirling engine and weather data of Direct Normal Irradiation, Horizontal Global Insolation, wind speed & direction, and atmosphere temperature from weather station. According to the operating results in a clear sky day, electric power of 6,890 W was generated at the DNI value of 850 W/$m^2$ and the averaged solar-to-electricity efficiency during a whole day reached to 18.99%. From the overall operating results, linear power generation trend could be observed with increasing DNI value. The solar-to-electricity efficiency achieved to 19% around the DNI value of 700 W/$m^2$ and increased to 20% when the DNI value goes up to 900 W/$m^2$.

Mercedes-Benz United States International (MBUSI) built a manufacturing facility for the production of the new M-Class All Activity Vehicle (AAV). This plant consists of three large sequential shops: the Body Shop, the Paint Shop, and the Assembly Shop. When the plant reaches full production, 270 vehicles will be produced each day by two shifts. A finished vehicle is intended to leave the end of the assembly line every 3.6 minutes. The main objective of this study is to simulate the design and operational policies of the AAV assembly facility and to verify that the daily throughput requirements can be met. The simulation study also answered the following questions: What is the maximum throughput (capacity) of the facility? What is the daily distribution of throughput? Does the current design produce the required throughput of 270 cars per day? How do the buffers behave in terms of quantity fluctuations? What are the possible bottlenecks to the desired throughput? This paper provides a description of the integrated simulation model to analyze the capability of the production facilities at MBUSI. This paper includes the inputs used for the development of each of the three individual models: the Body Shop, the Paint Shop, and the Assembly Shop. Additionally, it includes descriptions of the model features and the assumptions that were made.

With the increased use of GPS in the field of various applications including surveying, the request for fast and precise positional information has increased. Several countries such as USA, Canada, and Australia have already been operating Internet-based automatic GPS data analysis system using e-mail and FTP. Expanding GPS market, it is necessary to establish automatic GPS baseline processing system that is accessible via Internet. The system developed in this study is operating on the web, and it allows the users to access easily regardless of time and place. The main processing engines are Bernese V5.0 and PAGES. They process user data with three GPS CORS(Continuously Operating Reference Station), and then send the report to the users through e-mail. This system allows users to process high accurate GPS data easily. It is expected that this system will be used for various GPS applications such as monitoring large-scale structures and providing spatial information services in private sector.

Eddy current (EC) testing methods are widely used in a variety of applications including the inspection of steam generator tubes in nuclear power plants, aircraft parts and airframes. A key factor that affects the EC signal is lift-off which means the physical distance between a sensor and a specimen in the testing. In practice, it is difficult to keep track of the actual value of the lift -off during a specific experiment, simulation or testing in the field, which is essential for accurate interpretation of the signal to be used in the following steps. Hence it is necessary to have a scheme to render the EC signal invariant to the effects of lift-off in spite of the changes in the real world. This paper describes a new method for compensating EC signals for variations in lift-off by acquiring an invariance feature using a homomorphic operator and neural network techniques. The signals from various lift-offs are transformed to obtain a zero lift-off equivalent signal that can be subsequently used for defect characterization in the next step.

A TTS(Text-To-Speech) System is a computer-based system that should be able to read any text aloud. To output a natural voice, we need a general knowledge of language, a lot of time, and effort. Furthermore, the sound pattern of english has a variable pattern, which consists of phonemic and morphological analysis. It is very difficult to maintain consistency of pattern. To handle these problems, we present a system based on phonemic analysis for vowel and consonant. By analyzing phonological variations frequently found in spoken english, we have derived about phonemic contexts that would trigger the multilevel application of the corresponding phonological process, which consists of phonemic and allophonic rules. In conclusion, we have a rule data which consists of phoneme, and a engine which economize in system. The proposed system can use not only communication system, but also utilize office automation and so on.

In this study, the numerical analysis of propellant supply manifold of a sub-scale model combustor with the same combustion and acoustic resonance conditions as the real combustor was carried out. The analysis of the results is based on the shape of the manifold and the number and type of inflow channels. The manifold form of the main propellant was rounded so that the recirculation area was small and easy to manufacture. The liquid oxygen mainfold included a distributor to uniformly supply the flow, and since the kerosene manifold was directly in contact with the flame side, the inflow channel was formed at a radial $360^{\circ}$ so as to minimize the recirculation region. The liquid nitrogen manifold was configured as a radial inflow channel to reduce the velocity difference near the injector.

Along with the development of M&S, modeling research utilizing AI technology is attracting attention because of the fact that the needs of fields including human decision making such as defense M&S are increased. Obviously AI is a way to solve complex problems. However, AI did not consider logical time such as input time and processing time required by M&S. Therefore, in this paper we proposed a "time-based expert system" which redesigned the representative AI technology rule-based expert system. It consists of a rule structure "IF-THEN-AFTER" and an inference engine, takes logical time into consideration. We also tried logical analysis using a simple example. As a result of the analysis, the proposal Time-based Expert System proved that the result changes according to the input time point and inference time.

Among web-based systems being widely used now, there are so many systems which are still using an user-level access control method. By successfully applying role-based access control(RBAC) to web-based application systems, we can expect to have an effective means with reinforced security for Internet-based systems. In order to apply RBAC to web-based application systems, we should come up with a system architecture for it. I proposed a system architecture which is needed to apply RBAC to web-based application systems. The proposed system architecture is largely composed of system composition and system functioning. For details, firstly, a certificate used by RBAC is specified. Secondly, a system architecture using a user-pull method is proposed and overall system components are mentioned with a role server being centered. Then, I showed how the system architecture can work to carry out RBAC on web-based application systems. Lastly, the analyses on the proposed system architecture are described for the purpose of proving its feasibility.
