In this paper, we proposed a service that provides CPA/TCPA information to ships, without ARPA/ATA devices to support decision making of the navigator for maritime safety based on various services at shore and off-shore. To verify the proposed service, we use SiNAS (scenario-based simulator for NAS) with CPA/TCPA information providing software to evaluate its usability, because executing the test in real ship has many limitations and difficulties. To do this, we specify two simulation scenarios for the required purpose, and we liaise twelve participants with various navigation experience to conduct the simulations. Also, we analyze the results of simulation using mission success or not, the minimum approaching distance with the target ship, the time of a recognition the target ship, the time of a first action for collision avoidance with the target ship, and so on. Then, we evaluate usability of the proposed service based on the three elements which are effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction.

Path-following control is considered as one of the most fundamental skills to realize autonomous navigation of marine vessels in the ocean. This study addresses with the path-following control for a ship in which there are environmental disturbances in the directions of the surge, sway, and yaw motions. The guiding principle and back-stepping method was utilized to solve the ship's tracking problem on the reference path generated by a virtual ship. For path-following control, error dynamics is one of the most important skills, and it extends to the research fields of automatic collision avoidance and automatic berthing control. The algorithms for the guiding principles and error variables have been verified by numerical simulation. As a result, most error variables converged to zero values with the controller except for the yaw angle error. One of the most interesting results is that the tracking errors of path-following control between two ships are smaller than the existing safe passing distances considering interaction forces from near passing ships. Moreover, a trade-off between tracking performance and the ship's safety should be considered for determining the proper control parameters to prevent the destructive failure of actuators such as propellers, fins, and rudders during the path-following of marine vessels.

Autonomous vehicles are equipped with a wide rage of sensors such as GPS, RADAR, LIDAR, camera, IMU, etc. and are driven by recognizing and judging various transportation systems at intersections in the city. The accident ratio of the intersection of the autonomous vehicles is 88% of all accidents due to the limitation of prediction and judgment of an area outside the sensing distance. Not only research on non-signalized intersection collision avoidance strategies through V2V and V2I is underway, but also research on safe intersection driving in failure situations is underway, but verification and fragments through simple intersection scenarios Only typical V2V failures are presented. In this paper, we analyzed the architecture of the V2V module, analyzed the causal factors for each V2V module, and defined the failure mode. We presented intersection scenarios for various road conditions and traffic volumes. we used the ISO-26262 Part3 Process and performed HARA (Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment) to analyze the risk of autonomous vehicle based on the simulation. We presented ASIL, which is the result of risk analysis, proposed a monitoring concept for each component of the V2V module, and presented monitoring coverage.

In this study, we propose a method for evaluating the risk of collision between ships to support determination on the risk of collision in a situation in which ships encounter each other and to prevent collision accidents. Because several uncertainties are involved in the navigation of a ship, must be considered when evaluating the risk of collision. We apply the Dempster-Shafer theory to manage this uncertainty and evaluate the collision risk of each target vessel in real time. The distance at the closest point approach (DCPA), time to the closest point approach (TCPA), distance from another vessel, relative bearing, and velocity ratio are used as evaluation factors for ship collision risk. The basic probability assignments (BPAs) calculated by membership functions for each evaluation factor are fused through the combination rule of the Dempster-Shafer theory. As a result of the experiment using automatic identification system (AIS) data collected in situations where ships actually encounter each other, the suitability of evaluation was verified. By evaluating the risk of collision in real time in encounter situations between ships, collision accidents caused by human errora can be prevented. This is expected to be used for vessel traffic service systems and collision avoidance systems for autonomous ships.

To evaluate the efficiency of commuting patterns, various commuting indicators such as excess commute and commuting potential utilized have been developed and used. It is crucial to calculate these indicators reasonably to reveal the differences in commuting patterns among metropolitan areas and to consider these in the process of formulating commuting policies. However, commuting indicators are generally calculated at the administrative district level, and thus, they are not free from the problem of the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP). This issue can undermine the rationality of comparing commuting efficiency between metropolitan areas, making it necessary to handle the calculation of commuting indicators carefully. Therefore, this study utilises Monte Carlo Simulation to calculate optimal, actual, and maximum commuting distances, and thereby presents the excess commute and the commuting potential utilized. To apply Monte Carlo Simulation to the context of South Korea, a constrained Monte Carlo Simulation is conducted, where residential and workplace locations used in the simulation are selected based on the actual locations of buildings. The analysis is conducted on 13 metropolitan areas with established metropolitan plans using the 2016 Household Travel Survey data. The commuting indicators calculated through the simulation showed minimal differences compared to the results obtained through conventional methods. The comparison of commuting efficiency among metropolitan areas revealed that even if the degree of spafial balance between residential and workplace locations is similar, the actual commuting patterns can differ significantly. It is suggested that further research considering characteristics such as the area of each metropolitan region will be necessary in the future.

우리나라의 시설재배면적은 51,237ha에 이르며 수경재배 면적을 제외하면 대부분 경운재배를 하고 있는 실정이다. 경운 작업은 대형 농기구를 이용하여 경운하기 때문에 시설내 토양 입자가 단립으로 잘게 부서지며 대형농기구로 인하여 토양이 답압되고 경운층 아래 경반층이 형성되어 뿌리 발육과 배수 불량의 원인을 제공하게 된다. 경운은 기존에 설치되어 있는 관수시설과 지주, 멀칭을 제거한 후 유기물을 투입하고 2~3회 경운작업 후 다시 소형농기구를 이용하여 이랑을 조성한다. 그리고 제거된 관수시설, 멀칭, 지주를 다시 설치하여야 하기 때문에 시설의 경운재배는 가장 고통스러운 악성노동을 수반하게 된다. 따라서 본 시험에서는 시설 고추 유기재배 시 무경운재배 효과에 대하여 검토하고자 전남 나주시 남평읍 평산리 "JD 중동통 미사질양토"에서 시험을 수행하였다. 2009년 3월 11일 "녹광" 고추 품종을 재식 거리 135${\times}$38cm로 정식하여 7월 27일까지 재배한 후, 시험포를 1/2로 나누어 트렉터를 이용하여 경운작업을 실시하고 2009년 8월 1일 억제작형으로 "녹광" 고추 품종을 정식하였다. 그리고 나머지 시험포 1/2은 전작물을 재배한 이랑에 경운작업을 생략하고 전작물 고추의 식물체는 지제부를 절단하여 분해되도록 고랑을 피복하였으며, 고추 포기와 포기 사이에 무경운으로 고추를 정식하여 시험을 수행하였다. 고추 정식 전 7월 30일에 경운 시험포에 10a당 29톤의 물을 관수하였으며, 무경운 시험포에는 10a당 48톤의 물을 관수하고, 관수 2일 후 시험포의 습도와 이랑에 발생되는 균열수를 조사하였다. 이랑의 수분함량은 표토 0.23%, 토양 30cm 깊이의 수분함량은 0.18%로 경운방법에 따라서 차이가 없었으나 토양 20cm 깊이의 수분함량은 경운은 0.25%, 무경운은 0.14%로 경운재배 토양에 비하여 뿌리의 주요 분포지역인 작토층의 수분함량이 44% 정도 낮았다. 그리고 경운재배 이랑에서는 7~35cm 정도 되는 균열이 m당 22개정도 발생되었으나 무경운에서는 관찰되지 않았다. 시설 토양의 생물다양성 지표가 되는 미소동물의 분포를 조사한(9월 16일) 결과 경운재배 토양에서는 보리톡톡기 등 8종 97개체가, 무경운 토양에서는 10종 101개체가 포획되었다. 경운 방법에 따른 시설 유기재배 고추의 수확과수는 주당 139~141과, 수량은 1,367~1,431g/주가 수확되고 10a당 수량은 경운재배가 2,790kg, 무경운재배는 2,666kg이 생산되어 경운방법에 따른 수량 차는 인정되지 않았다. 경운방법에 따른 경영비를 분석한 결과 무경운은 경운재배에 비하여 10a당 유기질 비료비 178천원, 대농구상각비 211천원, 노력비 261천원의 절감으로 경운재배 경영비 4,815천원/10a 대비 약 14%의 경영비가 절감되었다. 그리고 작기마다 반복되는 경운작업과 관수시설, 멀칭, 지주설치 작업을 1회 설치 작업으로 연속사용이 가능하여 시설재배에서 가장 고통스러운 악성노동의 회피가 가능하였다.
