In this paper, we propose the method of a motion planning generation in which the movement of the 3-link leg subsystem is constrained to a slider-link and a singular posture can be easily avoided. The proposed method is the jumping control moving in vertical direction which mimics a cat's behavior. That is, it is jumping toward wall and kicking it to get a higher-place. Considering the movement from the point of constraint mechanical system, the robotic system which realizes the motion changes its configuration according to the position and it has several phases such as; ⅰ) an one-leg phase, ⅱ) in an air-phase. In other words, the system is under nonholonomic constraint due to the reservation of its momentum. Especially, in an air-phase, we will use a control method using state transformation and linearization in order to control the landing posture. Also, an iterative learning control algorithm is applied in order to improve the robustness of the control. The simulation results for jumping control will illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

Our Korean traditional cultural inheritance Bangpae Kite has the stable rectangular shield shape decorated with artistic paint or poem and a good flight performance due to the central wind hole. In this paper, to analyse the wind hole effect to kite performance we performed the wind tunnel testing of the various design factor of kite model and air flow visualization passing through the wind hole. As the result of aerodynamic analysis, we knew that the wind hole of kite displays similar function of slot system for the wing high lift device. This fact demonstrates that our ancestor understood the function of slot system and applied effectively to the development of kite flight performance.

The present article deals with comparisons of published liquid breakup models for diesel sprays to analyze the influence of breakup models on various spray parameters. The three different models tested in this study are the surface wave instability (Wave) model, the Taylor analogy breakup (TAB) model, and the drop drag model(DDM). The numerical results using these models are compared with several experimental data to assess the prediction capabilities of breakup models. Additional task in this study is to investigate effects of the breakup time constant in the Wave model on the spray parameters because the spray behavior is sensitive to the breakup time constant. It is seen that there is uncertainly about the breakup time constant indicating that the suitable acceptance of the constant is important, and the TAB model generally shows significant under-prediction of Sauter Mean Diameter(SMD). In addition, it may be indicated that differences between the DDM and Wave model are not significant, showing that the DDM may be suitable for air-assisted atomization rather than pressure atomization.

Historical emission data for 11 polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and a regional multimedia environmental model, CoZMo-POP 2, were used to predict air concentrations and congener patterns in Korea. The total emission value for South Korea was allocated to sub-provinces and cities based on their population. The spatial distribution of PCB emissions was generally correlated with that of measured atmospheric levels, suggesting that population could be a good surrogate for the intensity of PCB emission in Korea. The simulated time trends of air concentrations well reflected those of emission with a peak in the mid-1970s and insignificant levels in the 2030s. The model predicted that the contribution of volatile PCBs had increased after emission reduction iii the 1970s. This trend would continue until the early 2030s. The measured and modeled PCB levels in the 2000s were in an agreement of an order of magnitude, and their congener patterns were very similar. Consequently, despite of high uncertainty for emission estimates, the emission data for Korea used in this study is considered to be reliable. The results of this study could be compared with simulation data based on a new emission inventory to be developed by measurements in the near future.

An air pollutant emission inventory system for the input preparations of photochemical dispersion model was developed. Using the system, anthropogenic emissions as well as biogenic emissions in the Seoul metropolitan area were calculated. Anthropogenic emission by fuel combustion using regional cosumption data, and the laundries and so forth was estimated. The biogenic emission was estimated based upon meteorological data and the distribution of land use type in the study area. The anthropogenic emission of pollutants was highest in Seoul, and the second highest in Inchon. TSP and $SO_2$ were found large quantities during the winter due to increased consumption of heating oil. NOx and THC were emitted without seasonal variation. Among biogenic emissions, PAR was very common while NO was the least common. PAR, OLE, and ALD2 were emitted in large volumes in coniferous forest areas, while ISOP was emitted in deciduous forest areas. Generally, most biogenic emissions increased during daytime, and peaked between oen and two o'clock. Because of strong solar radiation, emission during the summer was high. Biogenic NO emissions were found to be lower compared to anthropogenic emissons, and other VOC was indicated relatively high. In the study area, among biogenic emissions PAR was found to be 3 times, OLE 8 times,and ALD2 12 times more common than among anthropogenic emissions.

This paper is to derive energy retrofit strategies through energy audit and analysis for a selected small-to-medium office building located in Seoul, Korea,. To activate ESCO business in Korea, our final goal is to develope a simple and adequate energy retrofit procedure through computer simulation. Calibration process was fairly successful eve without the aid of tough field measurement. In terms of annual energy consumption, the percent difference between the predicted and the monitored values were within a reasonable tolerance of $\pm10$%. Based on the calibrated baseline model and the systematic investigation of target building, retrofit measures were suggested with two categories such as architectural side and equipment side. Both selected parametric and interactive retrofit measure simulations resulted in various energy saving quantities and cost, thus the priority among the measures were made. If we were to select the more realistic and reasonable retrofit measure in future, economic estimate were should be practiced with the life cycle cost analysis.

Open dump causes groundwater and soil contamination by leachate, air pollution by LFG (Landfill Gas). In this paper, in order to improve landfill researches which have been done about reduction of high leachate level and LFG collection in the Kimpo landfill separately, the effect of simultaneous flowing of leachate and LFG has been Studied. The HYLGS (Hanyang Leachate Gas Simulator) used in this study is a 3D, 2-phase, transient FDM model which can be applied to venting trenches in a landfill. From present numerical analysis it can be concluded that all the pressures of the Kimpo landfill grid system are almost the same and their maximum value in the center grid block of the system is approximately 26 m $H_2O$ (2.52 atm), that because the pressures of venting trench layer situated in the middle of the landfill have the lowest values and equal with air pressure, the venting trenches play an important role in landfill stabilization, that the flow of gas will be more difficult as time goes by owing to the increase of LGR(Leachate and gas ratio).

Numerical simulations have been conducted for the cylindrical steam reformer having various boundary temperature distributions. $CH_4$, $H_2O$, CO, $H_2$ and $CO_2$ are often generated or destroyed by the reactions, namely the Steam Reofrming(SR) reaction, the Water-Gas Shift (WGS) reaction and the Direct Steam Reforming(DSR) reaction. The SR and the DSR reactions are endothermic reactions, and the WGS reaction is an exothermic reaction. The rate of reactions can be slightly controlled by artificially given boundary temperature distributions. Therefore, the component ratio of the gases at the outlet are different for various boundary temperature distributions, namely the constant, cubic and linear distributions. Among these distributions, the linear temperature distribution is outstanding for efficient hydrogen production of the steam reformer.

Capillary tubes are widely used as expansion device in small refrigeration systems. The refrigerant flowing in the capillary tube experiences frictional and accelerational head losses and flashing simultaneously. In this paper flow characteristics of adiabatic capillary tubes were simulated with various friction factor models, two-phase viscosity models, and two-phase frictional multiplier models. The predicted pressure distribution and mass flow rate are compared with experimental data reported in literature. It is confirmed that the predicting accuracy with homogeneous model can be improved by employing suitable correlations of friction factor, two-phase viscosity and two-phase frictional multiplier.

In this study, Urban Climate Simulation was performed by 3-Dimensional Urban Canopy Model. The characteristics of urban climate was analyzed combining artificial land coverage, building size, heat production from the air conditioning and topographic conditions as physical variables which affects urban climate characteristics. The results are as follows. (1)The aspects of the urban climatal change is derived to be related to the combination of the building coverage ratio, building height and shading area. (2)Whole heat generation was influenced by the convective sensible heat at the lower building height and by the artificial heat generation at the higher one over 20-story building influence to some extent of the building coverage ratio. The effect of the altitude is not more considerable than the other variables as below $1^{\circ}C$ of the air temperature.
