In this study, research and a demonstration for applying DC distribution systems to ships as an environmental and energy conservation solution in domestic and foreign countries were actively carried out. In order to apply a generator to a DC distribution system, a variable speed engine was used. Both engine speed and fuel consumption were reduced. In this paper, a DC generator for DC distribution was constructed using a diesel generator, a generator controller, a governor, and an AVR. A system configuration method for a generator, power quality test, and the power characteristics of a variable speed generator were analyzed. The voltage (250 - 440 VAC) and frequency (34 - 60 Hz) of the variable speed generator were set to 60 - 100 % of the rated value, and the engine was set to operate from 1100 - 1800 rpm. It was confirmed that the voltage, current, and frequency of the generator output fluctuated in a stable manner according to the power amount when changing the engine speed of the generator according to the load variation.

In this paper, the signals of the sensor for extracting characteristic parameters of the rotor are collected and the performance of the extraction technique is analyzed. To this end, a vibration test league was developed for conducting model tests to analyze the signal characteristics under normal operation. As a result, it is judged that no change in the measured the raw data amplitude will occur in the acceleration sensor with the unbalanced mass measured from the acceleration sensor. Performing FFT showed a significant increase in amplitude of the rotational frequency of 20 Hz as the unbalanced mass increased. The analysis results according to the change in the unequal mass of the speed sensor also showed a significant increase in the 1X Harmonics component, such as the acceleration sensor. There was no change in the amplitude of the acceleration sensor data when the misalignment occurred, and for the Envelope data, the amplitude of 2X (40 Hz) was increased depending on the degree of misalignment. The velocity sensor at change of misalignment also showed similar results to the acceleration sensor, and the peak was reduced at 600 Hz as the load increased in the frequency spectrum.

As research and development of eco-friendly vehicles are expanding worldwide, additional devices of vehicles are reduced or deleted to increase the mileage, or research is being conducted to reduce weight. Among them, the multi-stage transmission that was applied to the internal combustion engine vehicle was deleted and replaced with a reducer, and the initial driving power is secured by increasing the torque through the control of the motor output value. However, since frequent motor speed change can result in a load increase, this study attempts to develop a compact and lightweight manual two-stage reducer with a general reducer structure. Therefore, a two-speed transmission with two gear ratio was designed by inserting a large gear and a small gear in a structure with a parallel shaft to connect the gears with a V-belt in the form of a parallel shaft reducer, and setting the gear ratio of the low and high gears respectively. In addition, power performance according to the rotational speed and load of the transmission was checked through a test, and the heat generation characteristics generated during driving were checked to verify the validity of the transmission.

This paper is to provide the results of usability of the impact force response signal induced from initial and successive rebound impacting a rock specimen for assessing the compressive strength of rock non-destructively. For this study, a device was devised for impacting a rock specimen and a system for measuring the impact force was set up. The impact was carried out by an initial rotating free falling impact and following repetitive impacts from the rebound action which eventually disappears. Three different kinds of rock specimen were tested and an impact force response signal was measured for each test specimen. The total impact force signal energy which is assessed from integrating the impact force response signal induced from initial and rebound impacts was compared with the directly measured compressive strength for each rock specimen. The comparison showed that the total impact force signal energy has a direct relationship with the directly measured compressive strength and the results clearly indicated that the compressive strength of rock can be assessed non-destructively using total impact force signal energy.

This research was conducted to improve a hill seeding technology under puddled wet soil condition for direct seeded rice. There were severe constrains in hill sowing method under puddled wet soil such as a bird damages, dryness of seeds sown due to strong sunlight in May and buoyancy of seeds and young seedlings after raining and irrigation particular under strong wind. Thus, we have adopted a sandy type(<2mm) silicate covering method in Bokto drill seeding technology for a hill seeding method as well. The average silicate amount in order to cover seeds sown was of 840kg/ha which was evaluated to a proper volume for those problem solution and farmer's handling during sowing operation. In this experiment there was an additional problem like a precious hill drop of rice seeds, covering of silicate over hill seeded rice and seed broken during roller operation.

Manufacturing conventional column base plate requires much manpower and time. In this research, a new method for constructing column base plate is introduced to improve on conventional methods through the use ofcast steel that is available for adjusting base plate thickness and enlarging base plate stiffness. The main purposes include reducing welding work, enlarging base plate stiffness, and clarifying the stress flow. Also, construction convenience and improvement in quality can be expected. For developing this cast steel base plate, test specimens of conventional and cast steel base plates are made and tested to analyze strength and stiffness. Also, the efficiency for long-term use is checked by fatigue tests. From these comparative tests, cast steel base plates have the same strength and stiffness as conventional base plates.

The High Agility and Remote Control Camera System Can-Satellite ($HA+RC^2S$ CanSat) proposed in this study is a satellite designed by the authors of this work and submitted as an entry in the 2017 CanSat competition in Goheung gun, Jeonnam, Korea. The primary mission of this work is to develop a high agility camera system (HACS) that can obtain high quality images in the air. This objective is achieved by using a tuned mass damper (TMD) to attenuate the residual vibration that occurs immediately after rotating the camera. The secondary objective is to obtain a self-image of CanSat in the air using a remote control self-camera system (RCSS) that is wirelessly controlled using a joystick from a ground station. This paper describes the development process of the $HA+RC^2S$ CanSat, including mission definition, system design, manufacturing, function and performance tests carried out on the ground, and final launch test.

This paper is to grasp the applicability of a cumulative rebound angle measured from the rebound action generated after impacting an object for the assessment of compressive strength of construction materials nondestructively and to propose the test results. For this study, an impact device was devised and used for impacting an object by an initial rotating free falling impact and following repetitive impacts from the rebound action which eventually disappears. Five types of construction materials, which are soil cement, cement paste, wood (pine tree), and two types of rock (shale and granite), were tested and both peak rebound angle and cumulative rebound angle were measured for each material by using a high-speed camera. The measured angles were compared with the directly measured compressive strength for each material. The comparison showed that for materials such as cement and rock the cumulative rebound angle, which reflects energy dissipation, rather than the peak rebound angle is more appropriate indicator for assessing the compressive strength of a material, but for a construction material such as wood which has a high toughness the magnitude of rebound is not an indicator to assess the compressive strength of a material.

Polypropylene (PP)/bamboo fiber (BF) composites were fabricated by twin screw extruder in order to investigate effects of the compatibilizer on physical properties of PP/BF composites. The content of BF changed from 10 to 25 wt% and that of the compatibilizer was fixed at 3 wt%. Maleic anhydride grafted PP (PP-g-MAH) was used to increase the compatibility between PP and BF as a compatibilizer. Chemical structures of the composites were confirmed by the existence of carbonyl group (C=O) stretching peak at $1,700cm^{-1}$ in FT-IR spectrum. Considering the degradation and mechanical properties, the optimum extrusion conditions were selected to be $210^{\circ}C$ and 100 rpm, respectively. There was no distinct changes in melting temperature of the composites, but the crystallization temperature increased by $10-20^{\circ}C$ owing to the heterogeneous nuclei of BF. It was checked that the optimum BF content was in the range of 15-20 wt% from the results of tensile and flexural properties of the composites. The effect of the compatibilizer on mechanical properties was confirmed by SEM images of fractured surface and contact angles.

The pathogenicity of free-living amoeba, Waegleria fcwleri, is influenced according to the strain, cultural condition and host (Culbertson et at., 1968; Carter, 1970; Wong et at., 1975), Phillips (1973) demonstrated that Entamoeba histolytica became avirulent after more than 2 year maintenance in axonic culture in vitro. This study was carried out to compare the difference in pathogenicity between two strains of N. fowleri, one of a prolonged maintenance in arsenic medium and the other one obtained by serial brain passage in mice. The 0 strain was that N. fowleri had cultivated axenically more than 7 years in CGVS medium. The 2-1 strain was obtained from the brain of mouse inoculated intranasally with a strain, which was from the mouse brain infected with 0 strain, and cultured for 15 weeks until the beginning of this experiment. White male mice weighing 18-22 g were used. Mice were anesthetized by an intraperitoneal injection of about 1 mg secobarbital, and inoculated intranasally with $10{\times}$10^4 live N. fowleri trophoBoites in a $5{\;}{\mu}l$ cell suspension. Sluggish behaviour, nervousness, rotation and leg paralysis were developed earlier and more frequently in the 2-1 experimental group than the control 0 group. Pathological changes such as inflammatory and necrotic lesion were observed in the olfactory and anterior portion of brain, and these changes were more extensive in the 2-1 group. The edematous and inflammatory changes in lung were demonstrated in mice died after 13th day post-inoculation. The experimental mice of 2-1 group began to die suddenly from 7th day post-inoculation, and the survival time in 2-1 group mice was shorter than 0 group mice. The typical primary amoebic meningoencephalitis was developed in the mice inoculated intranasally with N. fowleri. The prolonged maintenance of N. fowleri amoebae in axonic CGVS medium was observed to have lost their original pathogenicity for mice, but their pathogenicity was restored by serial brain passage in mice.
