최근 자동차용 휘발유에 메탄올을 불법 혼합시켜 유통시키는 사례가 빈번히 적발되고 있다. 정상적인 연료에 알코올이 불법 혼합될 경우, 장치 내 고무류와 금속류를 부식시키며, 독성가스인 알데하이드를 배출시키는 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 에탄올의 경우 흡습성이 높아 자체적으로 수분을 생성시킬 수 있으며 정상 휘발유보다 증기압이 높기 때문에 밀폐공간에서 화재 및 질식의 위험이 있을 수 있다. 현재 휘발유 내에 알코올 성분을 분석하기 위한 분석법으로는 Gas Chromatography가 이용되고 있으나 고가의 장비와 긴 분석시간으로 인해서 유사석유의 판별여부가 효율적으로 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 화학절 식별제인 크롬산($CrO_3$)을 이용하여 휘발유 내 알코올 성분을 정성 정량 분석하였다. 환원된 3가 크롬은 용액상에서 붉은색을 나타내므로 육안으로도 알코올의 존재여부를 간단히 확인할 수 있으며, UV-Vis Spectrophotometry를 통해 휘발유 내 알코올의 농도에 따라 흡광도값이 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 논문에서는 무선 센서네트워크 환경에 적용할 수 있는 불법 침입자를 감지하는 시스템으로 GPS의 위성시간과 단말기 노드 내부의 암호화 동기 시간 설정 알고리즘을 혼합하여 시간 중심의 암호화 인증시스템을 설계하여 불법적인 외부노드의 침입을 탐지하는 방법을 제안하고자 한다. 본 논문에서는 GPS의 시간 정보와 RTC(Real Time Clock) 칩과 동기화 하여 시간 정보를 실내에서도 사용할 수 있으며, 마이크로프로세서 내부 타이머 설정 시간 등을 고려하여 다중화된 시간 정보를 이용하여 보다 높은 수준의 침입 감지 시스템을 개발하여 효율성을 제시하고자 한다.

연안역 굴양식장에서 발생하여 폐기물로 분류되어 불법으로 버려지는 굴패각을 파쇄하여 혼합한 모르타르 혼합토의 특성을 규명하고자 압축강도 시험을 포함한 다양한 실내시험을 수행하였다. 압축강도시험을 위하여 준비한 모르타르 공시체는 시멘트, 물, 모래 및 굴패각을 다양한 배합비로 혼합하여 제작하였다. 강도시험결과에 따르면 분쇄한 굴패각의 비율이 최대 모래중량의 40%까지 혼합한 경우에도 굴패각을 섞지 않은 일반 모르타르 혼합토에 비하여 압축강도가 크게 감소하지 않았다. 본 연구에서 수행한 압축강도실험을 분석한 결과, 다양한 크기로 파쇄한 굴패각을 적절한 혼합비의 모래 및 시멘트와 배합하여 사용한다면 건설재료로서의 재활용 가능성이 충분한 것으로 판단되었다.

굴폐각은 굴양식 후 남는 것으로 남해안에서 주로 집중적으로 발생하는데 연간 28만톤의 발생량 중 상당양은 폐기물로 계속 누적되고 혹은 불법매립되어 환경오염 문제까지 발생시키고 있다. 본 연구에서는 산업폐기물로 분류되는 굴패각을 지반공학 분야에서 활용하기 위한 대안으로 해성점토와 혼합하여 매립재료로써의 적용성을 평가하기 위하여 대형 압밀기를 이용하여 실험을 실시하고 이를 토대로 기초자료를 획득하고자 하였다. 원형의 굴패각을 파쇄하여 입도별로 분류하고 이중 사질토 입경 크기의 재료에 대한 기본 물성치를 평가하고 지반 재료로써의 적용성를 분석하였다. 해성점토 내의 굴패각입자의 혼합비를 변화시켜 만들어진 혼합토에 대한 압밀 실험 결과 굴패각의 혼합율이 증가할수록 체적변화율이 작게 되고, 침하 속도는 빠르게 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이는 압밀응력의 일부를 굴패각 입자의 골격구조가 부담함으로써 실제 점토부분에 작용하는 압밀응력은 굴패각 혼합율이 증가할수록 작아지는 것으로 판단된다.

Deep-sea fishery in the Antarctic Ocean has been actively progressed by the developed countries including Korea. In order to prevent the environmental destruction of the Antarctic Ocean, related countries have established the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) and have monitored any illegal unreported or unregulated fishing. Fishing of tooth fish, an expensive fish, in the Antarctic Ocean has increased recently and high catches per unit effort (CPUE) of fishing boats, which is suspicious for an illegal activity, have been frequently reported. The data of CPUEs in a fishing area of the Antarctic Ocean often show an extreme Distribution or a mixture of two extreme distributions. This paper proposes an algorithm to detect an outlier of CPUEs by using the mixture of two extreme distributions. The parameters of the mixture distribution are estimated by the EM algorithm. Log likelihood value and posterior probabilities are used to detect an outlier. Experiments show that the proposed algorithm to detect outlier of the data can be adopted instead of simple criteria such as a CPUE is greater than 1.

Petroleum visible markers (dye) have been used to distinguish different fuel classes and to prevent illegal mixing. It is difficult to recognize the real color of visible marker when the small amount of petroleum product was mixed in another fuel oil. In this study, we determined the two wavelengths (370 nm, 645 nm) which detect all Korean petroleum visible marker using UV/Vis spectrophotometer. Then we analyzed the visible marker using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in two wavelength detectors. Also, we optimized the analytic method for petroleum visible marker in illegal mixed fuel oil.

As the world is trying to establish smart city, unmanned vehicle control systems are being widely used. This paper writes about an unmanned parking control system that uses an adaptive background image modeling method, suggesting the method of updating the background image, modeled with an adaptive Gaussian mixture model, in both global and local way according to the moving object. Specifically, this paper focuses on suggesting two methods; a method of minimizing the influence of a moving object on a background image and a method of accurately updating the background image by quickly removing afterimages of moving objects within the area of interest to be monitored. In this paper, through the implementation of the unmanned vehicle control system, we proved that the proposed system can quickly and accurately distinguish both moving and static objects such as vehicles from the background image.

There are several types of petroleum products used for the fuel oil, according to their respective quality standards, grades and usage. Depending on the degree of oil tax rate by country, even the same petroleum products will have price gap. The illegal mixing of cheap petroleum products, which are subject to the lower tax rate, with relatively expensive transportation fuel causes problems such as tax evasion, environmental pollution and vehicle breakdown. In order to prevent illicit production and mixing of these different petroleum products, a small amount of markers are legally added to specific petroleum products. In Korea, markers are introduced and used to prevent illegal activity that kerosene used as fuel for house and commercial boiler are mixed with automotive diesel fuels, and marker contents are analyzed to use UV-Vis spectrophotometer and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In this study, we have developed a method to qualitatively and quantitatively determine the marker added to petroleum products by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) without adding developing reagent or sample pre-treatments.

International efforts to prevent illegally logged wood are expanding around the world. The "Legal Wood Trade Promotion System" was enacted in Korea in 2019 to strengthen the legal import and distribution of commercial wood in Korea. Since then, this system has promoted and ensured that the imported wood and wood products are legal with respect to the country of origin, wood species, and harvested area. As verification methods, DNA analysis technology and anatomical analysis using a microscope are mainly used in conjunction. Therefore, in this study, wood species of plywood were identified by analyzing the anatomical characteristics of various wood products for the first time. Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco.) and larch (Larix kaempferi (Lamb.) Carriere) plywoods (7, 9 ply) were obtained from four companies that supply plywood in Korea. After cutting each company's plywood to a size of about 1 cm³, the layers from top to bottom were separated into single layers, and three sections were observed using an optical microscope. The results revealed that the plywood was composed of a mixture of softwood and hardwood wood species, pine wood species, poplar wood species, or a mixture of larch and pine wood species. Identification of wood species using microscopy is important and can enable the scientific analysis and verification of various wood products, including plywood, imported from countries where the likelihood of indiscriminate distribution of illegal wood and illegal logging is high.

The ever-increasing amount of waste vinyl is causing big environmental problems. In particular, those from farming industry are sometimes left on site or even illegally reclaimed due to the lack of environmental concerns and capacity for collection, which worsens the situation. It is, therefore, believed that the recycling of waste vinyl is the most ideal solution in the viewpoint of environmental preservation. In this context, the potential of vinyl strip as a ground reinforcing material is investigated to expand the application of waste vinyl recycling. In this study, a series of uniaxial compression tests and resonant column tests were performed for sand specimens reinforced with vinyl strips and cement to investigate their reinforcing effects on static and dynamic behaviors. The changes in the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS), the shear modulus and the damping ratio according to the mixing ratio of vinyl strips and cements were analysed for sand specimens, having 40% and 60% relative densities, under various mixing conditions. As a result, both the static and dynamic reinforcing effects of vinyl strip-cement mixture were confirmed and the optimum mixing ratio was proposed.
