The distinguished feature of the economic relationship between China and Africa during the cold war is the one that there was economic point of view at all even though such a huge trade between the two countries. It was caused by purely ideological and political purpose of China. because of the giant stream of time which is called as 'the cold war', it has been replaced with other conceptions: 'aid' or 'support.' Since the end of the cold war, however, the relationship between China and Africa has been showing noticeable features; political and ideological purposes are getting less meaningful or excluded completely. In 1990, China was based on the pragmatism, which is a rigorous sense of economy, and Africa was getting popular as an emerging market, which is not only performing as a stable energy supplier but also making trade and direct investment is possible. Also, it has implications for Korea that seriously considers putting more efforts into expanding its influence on all over the trade relations which includes investment and import-export in the emerging market: Africa.

Since the durability evaluation for improving the durability of PEMFC polymer membranes is very important for the development of PEMFC, research and development of the polymer membrane durability evaluation protocol (AST) continues. Recently, DOE's polymer membrane chemical/mechanical durability evaluation AST was developed and applied to Nafion XL for review. In order to shorten the evaluation time, oxygen was used as a cathode gas instead of air, and it was finished in 144 hours. Since DOE AST has a large number of voltage changes with 45 seconds of humidification and 30 seconds of drying, the degradation of the electrode has more influence on the MEA durability. Therefore, one cycle time was lengthened with 60sec of wet/300sec of dry, and the drying time was made longer than the humidification time to further deteriorate the polymer membrane, and it was finished in 240 hours. It was confirmed that the DOE AST for evaluation of the durability of the polymer membrane was accompanied by electrode degradation.

With the development of online education due to COVID-19, the EduTech market, which combines new technologies such as AI and AR/VR in education is rapidly growing. In addition, the children's industry is steadily growing despite the decreasing birth rate every year as more and more families with one child per household are investing in their children. However, supply of contents to EduTech market is slow compared to demands that are increasing. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to help solve these problems by developing and supporting AR kids contents with convenience, practicality, and efficiency using AR technology. AR content for supporting vocabulary learning for infants is not just an end to watching and listening, but an observation-driven model that can manipulate content directly, which attracts children's interest and helps children learn words. This paper is intended for infants from 15 months to 36 months old when full-fledged language development occurs.

The launch complex(LC) is composed of various facilities. The launch control system that operates remotely those of LC spends much time and labor for developing and verifying its control algorithms. The verification of algorithms is performed by the software developer entering simulated state values based on the test procedure and checking the output result according to the algorithm flow. These verification processes should be performed repeatedly, thus the human errors are easily occurred. In this paper, an efficient automated verification method with a script test procedure is proposed to minimize human errors and shorten the verification duration. We also present the results of the algorithm verification tests for the cases of the compressed gases supply system and the electro pneumatic panel system of LC.

In the process of long-term use of PEMFC (Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells), chemical degradation of membrane electrode assembly (MEA) occurs due to corrosion of stack elements and contamination of supply gas. In this study, we investigated whether chemically degraded MEA can be recovered by acid washing. The performance was measured and compared in a PEMFC cell after contamination with iron ions and washing with an aqueous sulfuric acid solution. The performance was reduced by about 25% by 0.5 ppm iron ion contamination, and 97.1% performance recovery was possible by washing of 0.15 M sulfuric acid. The membrane resistance was increased due to iron ion contamination of the polymer membrane, and the ionic conductivity was restored by washing the iron ions from the membrane while minimizing the loss of the electrode catalyst by washing with a low-concentration sulfuric acid aqueous solution. The possibility of solving the decrease in durability caused by chemical contamination of PEMFC MEA by the acid washing was confirmed.

Wireless sensor networks consist of small battery powered devices with limited energy resources. Once deployed, the small sensor nodes are usually inaccessible to the user, and thus replacement of the energy source is not feasible. Hence, energy efficiency is a key design issue that needs to be enhanced in order to improve the life span of the network. In BCDCP, all sensors send data from CH (Cluster Head) and then to BS (Base Station). BCDCP works well in small-scale network but in large scale network it is not appropriated since it uses much energy for long distance wireless communication. We propose a routing protocol - Triangular Clustering Routing Protocol (TCRP) - to prolong network life time through the balanced energy consumption. TCRP selects cluster head of triangular shape. The sensor field is divided into energy level and in every level we choose one node as a gate node. This gate node collects data and sends it to the leader node. Finally the leader node sends the aggregated data to the BS. We show TCRP outperforms BCDCP with several experiments.

한반도 기후변화평가보고서에 의하면 집중호우의 빈도와 강도는 1990년대 후반부터 꾸준히 증가하는 경향을 보였고 2020년의 홍수는 예견된 것으로 우려가 현실화 된 사건이라 볼 수 있다. 2020년 홍수에서 알 수 있듯이 강수량과 하천의 유량을 직접 담아내는 국내 댐 시설의 운영은 증가하는 기후변화의 위험에 더욱 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 보인다. 단일 목적으로 건설된 발전용댐의 경우도 다목적댐, 홍수조절댐 등 다양한 수자원시설과 동일한 수계 내에 배치되어 있기 때문에 기후변화 시나리오에 따라 발전용댐의 운영도 변화되어야 할 것이다. 2020년 발전용댐의 다목적 활용 협약 등의 여건 변화는 수자원 활용 측면에서 발전용댐의 역할이 기대되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기후변화 시나리오에 따른 발전용댐의 운영안을 회복탄력성 관점에서 제시하고자 한다. 기후변화는 CMIP6 데이터베이스에서 제공하는 18개의 GCMs의 결과를 고려하여 기후변화를 고려하였으며 3개의 미래구간에 대해 100개의 앙상블을 생성하였다. 해당 자료는 LSTM 모형으로 기반으로 댐 유입량을 예측하기 위해 사용되었다. 유입량 예측 결과 0.77~0.89의 NSE 값을 갖는 것으로 평가되었다. 최종적으로 기후변화 시나리오 따라 증가하는 예측된 유입량에 맞춰 댐 모의운영을 수행하였고 회복탄력성, 발전량, 홍수위험 등을 평가하였다. 그 결과 전력생산 관점의 회복탄력성을 유지하는 운영안을 제시하였고, 이를 통해 전력생산량을 증가시키면서 홍수조절 및 용수공급에 기여함을 확인하였다. 향후 방류량에 따라 하류의 구체적인 치수위험평가가 동시에 이뤄진다면 기후변화 시나리오별 발전용댐의 최적 운영기준을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

혼합층(Mixed layer)은 온도가 일정한 수심층으로, 해수표면에 작용하는 바람의 영향으로 인하여 해수가 위아래로 섞여 형성된다. 이러한 혼합층은 영양염의 순환과 산소의 공급 등과 함께 일차생산량을 결정하는 중요한 요인이 될 수 있으며 혼합층 두께의 변동은 양식 산업에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 최근에는 기후변화로 인한 해수면 상승 및 해수온 상승 등이 지속되고 있으며, 이러한 현상은 해양생태계의 변화를 초래하여 수산업의 피해를 유발할 수 있다(강원연구원, 2017). 이에 국립수산과학원, 기상청, 국립해양조사원 등 유관기관에서는 정선해양 수온 관측 및 해수순환모델을 이용하여 혼합층의 분석을 수행하고 있으나 격자 구축 및 초기·경계장 설정의 한계가 존재하여 정밀하고 정확한 혼합층 분석에는 어려움이 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 비정형격자를 사용하여 격자 구축에 제약이 없는 SCHISM (Semi-implicit Cross-scale Hydroscience Integrated System Model)을 이용하여 우리나라 연안해역의 계절변화 및 기후변동성에 따른 혼합층 두께의 변화를 검토하고자 한다. 연구대상지는 서해·동해·남해를 포함한 우리나라 전체 연안 해역(위도: 32°N ~ 39°N, 경도: 124°E ~ 132°E)으로 선정하였으며, 격자크기 100 ~ 3,000 m인 삼각격자로 격자를 구축하였다. 혼합층을 분석하기 위하여 수직격자 층은 50층으로 SZ(Sigma Z coordinate system)좌표계를 사용하였다. 초기·경계장은 FES(Finite Element Solution)2014, HYCOM(Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model) 및 대기모델 결과를 이용하여 설정하였다. 수치모형 검증을 위하여 수온관측소에서 수심별 측정한 수온 값과 SCHISM 결과 값을 비교하였고, 상대오차가 약 10% 이내로 나타나 모형의 정확도를 확인하였다. 최종적으로 해수면 상승 및 해수온 상승 시나리오를 고려하여 계절별 연안해역의 혼합층 두께의 변화 양상에 대하여 검토하였다. 향후에는 보다 정밀한 대기모델과의 혼합모형 구축 및 다양한 수심 별 관측자료를 활용한다면 실무에서 적용 가능한 혼합층 분석 및 수산업 피해 발생 지역에 대한 피해저감 대책 수립이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

This paper explains cross-national variation of CPI(corruption perception index) centering on legal culture. By critically reviewing previous researches on effects of British common law system on corruption, we define legal culture as citizens' perception of their legal system. Specifically, measuring legal culture with respect to courts fairness and courts accessibility, we test two hypotheses on effects of legal culture on corruption. A cross-national comparison of 78 countries with OLS regression analyses reveals that courts fairness tends to lower the level of corruption while courts accessibility does not have a significant effect on corruption. Based on this result, we suggest policy implications for judicial reform as well as anti-corruption measure, which puts more emphasis on reforming legal practice that hinders courts fairness than increasing legal service supply. In addition, as the essence of legal culture lies in citizens' shared perception of the legal system, we argue that a broad and solid citizens' consciousness of fair and equitable legal procedures is indispensable in preventing corruption.
