  • The identification of explosive residues on specimens obtained from an explosion event is a crucial factor for assessing the cause of the explosion. In order to detect the components of explosives, the explosive residues deposited on surfaces are commonly extracted using swabbing materials pre-wetted with an organic solvent. The residues are then analyzed with analytical instruments such as LC/MS and CE/MS. Most conventionally used swabbing media such as cotton swabs or cotton tip swabs seem unsuitable for extracting explosive residues from the surface of a large area of clothes because the swabbing materials tend to be damaged easily, and because only a relatively small amount of explosives is collected. To overcome these problems, we have introduced a novel wiper ($215{\times}210mm$, single layer, Yuhan-Kimberly, Republic of Korea) as a swabbing material to recover representative organic explosives, namely, TNT, RDX, tetryl, HMX, PETN, and NG, from a large area of clothes. Different sides of the wiper, which was folded in half five times, was used to swab the surface of a clothing. We compared this novel wiper with a cotton swab and a cotton tip swab in terms of the recovery efficiency for the aforementioned organic explosives by pre-wetting with methanol, acetone, and acetonitrile, respectively. We identified that this novel wiper collected a significantly higher amount of organic explosive residues than a cotton swab or a cotton tip swab when using methanol as an extracting solvent.

  • The collecting amount of sap by DBH class and contents of mineral and free sugar in the sap of Acer mono in Mt. Jiri were investigated. The total amount of sap throughout the study period was 315 L. Sap of A. mono were increased with increasing DBH, 67 L(21%), 104 L(33%) and 144 L(46%) from small (below 18㎝), middle (20-28㎝) and large (above 30㎝) diameter tree, respectively. This may be due to increase in crown width and extension of root system. Amounts of sap was required by big temperature fluctuation in day and night. The contents of solid, ash and sugar were 1.90%, 0.02% and 1.64% in the sap of A. mono. Free sugar determined in the sap was sucrose with 16.4 g/L, but glucose, fructose and maltose were not detected. The sap of A. mono was composed of seven kinds of mineral. The prominent minerals in the sap were Ca and K and the concentrations were 548㎎/L and 303㎎/L, respectively.

  • Performing inspections for Hull Condition Monitoring and Assessment as stipulated in IACS unified requirements and IMO's Condition Assessment Scheme (CAS) IMO Resolution MEPC.94(46), 2001, Condition Assessment Scheme, IMO Resolution MEPC.111(50), 2003, Amendments to regulation 13G, addition of new regulation 13H involves a huge amount of measurement data to be collected, processed, analysed and maintained. Information to be recorded consists of thickness measurements and visual assessment of coating and cracks. The amount of data and increasing requirements with respect to condition assessment demand efficient computer support. Currently, due to the lack of standardization for this kind of data, the thickness measurements are recorded manually on ship drawings or tables. In this form, handling of the measurements is tedious and error-prone and assessment is difficult. Data reporting and analysis takes a long time, leading to some repairs being performed only at the next docking of the ship or making an additional docking necessary. The recently started ED funded project CAS addresses this topic and develops-as a first step-a data model for Hull Condition Monitoring and Assessment (HCMA) based on XML-technology. The model includes simple geometry representation to facilitate a graphically supported data collection as well as an easy visualisation of the measurement results. In order to ensure compatibility with the current way of working, the content of the data model is strictly confined to the requirements of the measurement process. Appropriate data interfaces to classification software will enable rapid assessment by the classification societies, thus improving the process in terms of time and cost savings. In particular, decision-making can be done while the ship is still in the dock for maintenance.

  • Before the scholarship loan system was implemented at the Korea Scholarship Foundation, the government's role was strengthened by the direct lending of student funds to banks and other financial institutions. However, the low repayment performance of student loans has raised concerns over the future of student loans and the government's financial burden. Moreover, since student loans are repaid even after graduating from college to support low-income families, it is highly unlikely that the repayment rate of student loans will improve unless the employment rate and income level of the borrower improve. In this paper, the final visualization graph is presented of the repayment amount of the student loan through the collection, storage, processing and analysis phase in the Big Data-based system. This could be the basis for visually checking the amount of student loans to come up with various ways to reduce the burden on the current student loan system.

  • The solar water heating system is one of the seven green campus items installed at the Gangneung campus of Gangneung-Wonju National University. The solar water heating system has two types of solar collectors, four storage tanks and monitoring equipment. Fixed and azimuth-tracking solar collectors were installed to collect heat from the sun. The amount of heat collected by the two different types of solar collectors was calculated from the temperature of the monitored storage tanks. Our results showed that the amount of solar heat collected by the azimuth-tracking solar collector was 19% greater on a sunny day and 23% greater on a rainy day than that collected by the fixed solar collector; therefore, the azimuth-tracking solar collectors are, on an average, 21% more efficient than the fixed solar collectors.

  • Currently, the increased run-off and the shortened arrival time are one of the causes of the city environmental disasters in urbanization. Therefore, it is necessary to properly design the hydrologic structures, but it is very difficult to forecast the values necessary to design from the planning stage. Moreover, as the parameter is changed due to the urban development, it is difficult not only to analyze the run-off influences but also to find the related studies and literatures. The purpose of this study is to utilize the results as the important basic data of the hydrologic structures, its proper design and run-off influences through the sensibility analysis of the model parameter variables. In this study, the absolute and relative sensibility analysis method were used to find out the correlation through the sensibility analysis of the topology and hydrology parameters. Especially, in this study, the changes in the run-off amount and volume were calculated according to increase/decrease in CN, the coefficient of discharge, and the empirical formula is prepared and proposed through the regressive analysis among the parameters. In the meantime, the parameter sensibility analysis was performed through the simulation HEC-HMS that is used and available in Korea. From the results of this study, it was found that the run-off amount is increased about by 10% when the CN value is increased by 5% before and after the development through the HEC-HMS simulation and data analysis. As long as there will be additional data collection analysis and result verification, and continuous further studies to find out the parameters proper to the domestic circumstances, it is expected to considerably contribute to the proper design of the hydrologic structures with respect to the ungauged basin.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate spatial distributions of total deposition. A total number 79 samples were collected at 17 sampling sites from September 1999 to January 2000. Total (=wet+dry) atmospheric depositions were collected by filtered deposition sampler at sampling site (the Western Part of Kyongsangnam Province). In addition, the deposition of soluble and insoluble fraction was also investigated to find a suitable simplified collection method for a long-term monitoring of total deposition. The total depositions were measured soluble amount(mm/month), insoluble amount(kg/km$^2$/month), pH, conductivity(E.C.) and eight ionic components. The spatial distribution of deposition flux was to estimated by using a kringing analysis. The 17 sites mean fluxes of water soluble ionic components; SO$_4$$\^$2-/, Cl$\^$-/, NO$_3$$\^$-/, Na$\^$+/, NH$_4$$\^$+/, K$\^$+/, Mg$\^$2+/, Ca$\^$2+/ were 100.7∼315.6kg/km$^2$/month, 30.1∼234.3kg/km$^2$/month, 64.4∼ 139.4kg/km$^2$/month, 7.5∼68.3kg/km$^2$/month, 10.7∼48.7kg/km$^2$/month, 5.6∼27.9kg/km$^2$/month, 4.5∼17.5kg/km$^2$/month, 27.6∼81.7kg/km$^2$/month, respectively.

  • General-purpose classification scheme encompasses all subject areas, While the whole classification scheme is constructed by library studies experts, structure and preparation of each specific subject area's classification should be referenced to that specific subject. In order for the whole system to be practical and useful classification scheme, not just a simple collection of each subject area's scheme, it is necessary to set the rule for properly distributing the amount of classification items, and the collections assigned to these items. The rule to set the distribution of items based on the amount of document collections is called 'literary warrant'. This study examines actual status of assignment of each classification items to information resources, as a result of application of Korean Decimal Classification, and then suggests a way to improve these practices.

  • The study studied ways to improve the adjustment of the cadastral reform project after analyzing and evaluating the method of determining the boundaries and the overall status of the adjustment, focusing on cases of complaints in the business district in Sejong City, where the re-investigation project was completed. Measures to improve the adjustment amount of the cadastral reform project were largely divided into boundary adjustment and improvement measures according to the scope of area allowance and institutional improvement. According to an analysis of the status of boundary adjustment in Sejong City, the boundary of the cadastral reform project was being adjusted in various ways, and among them, it was found that it is simple to adjust, to formalize parcels, and that many adjustments are being made centering on resolving blind areas by establishing new roads. When setting such a boundary, it is necessary to establish an efficient and reasonable boundary by actively encouraging sufficient consultation with owners and an adjustment boundary that reflects the personal will of landowners to minimize disputes over the adjustment amount. In terms of improvement measures based on the area limit, it is necessary to accurately record and preserve the results of the cadastral resurvey in numerical data and to ease or exempt the adjustment amount if it is within the area permissible scope of the Spatial Data Management Act when calculating the adjustment amount. Finally, in relation to the adjustment, it was judged that it would be necessary to provide long-term low-interest loans to their own land to landowners, and that it would be necessary to calculate the adjustment through appraisal calculated by third parties fairly and objectively based on value judgment.
