The G20 summit is the premier forum for international economic cooperation and it will be held in Seoul in November 2010. However, protests are expected during the Seoul summit, as a part of the deepening global war against capitalism. The Korean Police need to deal with these protests effectively in order to provide security to the participating leaders and make the meeting run on wheel as planned. The current study attempts to analyze the death of Ian Tomlinson who died in the context of a heavily policed protest during 2009 G20 London summit. There are number of unique features regarding this incident, such as the public scrutiny of police conduct through video footage, the police use of excessive force, and the process to hold the police to account for misconduct. This incident caused serious damages to the public's faith in the British police. Based on the analysis, this study found that during the G20 London summit British police had the problems such as the lack of the clear standards on the use of force, improper training in the use of force, poor communications with the media and protesters, inappropriate use of the close containment tactic, and the failure to display police identification. Therefore, this study suggests the inducement of peaceful protests, the adoption of a set of standards on the use of force, public order training that is more directed and more relevant to the public order challenges facing the Korean police, improvement of the communication with the media and protesters, enhancement of individual officer's accountability as public order policing strategies for G20 Seoul summit meeting. However, the most fundamental principle is that Korean police must place a high value on tolerance and winning the consent of the public.

The guard system in the last period of the Joseon Dynasty, established at the time of the struggle of invading world powers and the loss of the Dynasty rights, was strengthened to protect the Royal family and the Dynasty from the attacks of foreign powers. While investigating both the military system and the guard system from the beginning of King Gojong's direct royal governing to the time of Japanese annexation of Korea, we realize that the Joseon Dynasty not only lost the support of the public but also had little power to cope with the aggression of foreign countries. The reformation and strengthening by Daewongun, King Gojong's father, was made in preparation for King Gojong's direct royal rule. Nevertheless, the intervention of foreign countries in the domestic affairs of the Joseon Dynasty got worse. As opposed to their intervention, Queen Minbi had engaged in politics, which resulted in murderous attempts on her. The Joseon Dynasty had tried to reform and intensify the guard system. New names such as Muwiso, Chingunyeong, and Siwidai, had been given respectively. Such reformation and intensification had little effect because of two successive victories at the Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War of Japan. Japan occupied the Joseon Dynasty by force after all. The guard system of Daehan-jeguk(the Empire of Korea) was eventually incapacitated; an army in the cause of justice was raised instead. However, The state of things and the guard system at that incapacitated period gives a good lesson for the establishment of a modern guard system at the present day.

In Western Europo and the US, there has been a general trend over 30 years of reducing the amount of force by the police, through a paradigm shift from 'Escalated Force Model' towards 'Negotiated Management Model'. In tune with this trend, for example, the Swedish Police have implemented the uniformed 'Dialogue Police' system, in order to establish communication contact with demonstrators, before, during, and after their events, The Negotiated Management Model involves a greater respect for the rights of protesters, a more tolerant approach to community, and improved intelligence, communication, and flexibility, in order to facilitate lawful protests and to reduce the possibility of an escalation of major public disorder. The Korean National Police (KNP) appears to be operated within this negotiated management framework, since in preparation for the G20 Seoul Summit, they have also emphasized good communication between the police and protest groups, by newly creating the concept of 'Protest Policing Through Facilitation of Lawful Protests'. In this context, this study first attempts to analyze not only the negotiated management model, but also the Swedish dialogue police. Secondly, the study conducts a comparative study between the KNP's Protest Policing Through Facilitation of Lawful Protest and the Swedish dialogue police system, particularly, in conjunction with the negotiated management. Although Korean and western police have different system and history, protest policing model is now approaching with each other through a link between conflict resolution techniques, such as dialogue, negotiation, mediation and facilitation. Finally, the study is to prove if the KNP's protest policing model corresponds with the negotiated management model, and further to suggest new 'Facilitation of Conflict Resolution Model' as a desirable future of the KNP's protest policing.

The wall interference effects around the wind-turbine airfoil are experimentally investigated at low Reynolds numbers in a closed test-section wind tunnel. The test is performed at free-stream velocities from 10 to 31 m/s, which correspond to Reynolds numbers ranging from $1.5{\times}10^5$ to $4.6{\times}10^5$ based on chord of the airfoil. The blockage-area ratios, which is the ratio of the chord to the test-section width, are 27.8%, 38.5%, 41.7%, 45.5%, and 55.6%. The test results for the airfoil show that the transition point on the airfoil surface tends to move backward due to wall interference. The wall pressures for an adequate interference correction by a measured-boundary-condition method are desirable more than three times region of the chord before and after around the reference center.

KARI is developing a solar-electric powered HALE UAV(EAV-3). For demonstrating the technology, EAV-2H, a down-scaled version of EAV-3, is developed and after EAV-2H's initial flight test, the directional stability and control need to be improved. Thus, the vertical tail and rudder of EAV-2H are redesigned with Advanced Aircraft Analysis(AAA). Size of the rudder is increased from mean chord ratio of rudder to vertical tail, $C_r/C_v(%)=30$ to $C_r/C_v(%)=60$ and size of the vertical tail is reduced 15%. As a result, the directional control to side wind($v_1$) is improved to sideslip angle, ${\beta}(deg)=25^{\circ}$ and $v_1(m/sec)=3.54$. Also, variation of airplane side force coefficient with sideslip angle ($C_{y_{\beta}}$) and variation of airplane side force coefficient with dimensionless rate of change of yaw rate ($C_{y_r}$) are reduced 15% and 22%, respectively to minimize the effect of side wind. The empennage design of EAV-2H is verified with flight tests and applied to design of KARI's solar-electric-powered EAV-3.
