In this paper, an acceleration based passenger evacuation simulation is performed. In order to describe a passenger‘s behavior in an evacuation situation, a passenger is modeled as a rigid body which translates in the horizontal plane and rotates along the vertical axis. The position and rotation angle of a passenger are calculated by solving the dynamic equations of motions at each time step. The destination force, the contact force, and the group force are considered as external forces and the moments due to each force are also considered. With the passenger model proposed in this paper, the test problems in International Maritime Organization, Maritime Safety Committee/Circulation 1238(IMO MSC/Circ.1238) are implemented and the effects of passenger rotation on the evacuation time are confirmed.

A four-legged mobile robot can move on the plain terrain with mobility and stability, but if there exist any obstacles on the terrain of the motion direction, it takes extra times for a mobile robot to cross those obstacles and the stability should be considered during motion. The main objevtive is the study of a quadruped which can cross obstacles with better mobility, stability and fuel economy than any other wheeled or tracked vehicles. Vertical step, isolated wall and ditch are the basic obstacles and by understanding those three cases perfectly, a quadruped can move on any mixed rough terrain as 4-legged animal moves. Each leg of a determine the crossing capability in a static analysis. A quadruped can be simplified with links and joints. By applying the research method, a quadruped can determine the control procedures as soon as it receives the terrain informations from scanner and finally can be moved as animals move with mobility and stability.

Critical issues such as connection congestion, long transmission delay, and packet loss become even worse during epidemic, disaster, and so on. In this study, a link load balancing method is proposed to address these issues on the data plane, a plane of the software-defined network (SDN) architecture. These problems are NP-complete, so a meta-heuristic approach, discrete particle swarm optimization, is used with a novel hybrid cost function. The superiority of the proposed method over existing methods in the literature is that it provides link and switch load balancing simultaneously. The goal is to choose a path that minimizes the connection load between the source and destination in multipath SDNs. Furthermore, the proposed work is dynamic, so selected paths are regularly updated. Simulation results prove that with the proposed method, streams reach the target with minimum time, no loss, low power consumption, and low memory usage.

UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle), the pilotless plane or drone, draws researchers' attention at these days for its extended use to various area. The research was initiated for military use of the UAV, but the area of applicable field is extended to surveillance, communication, and even delivery for commercial use. As increasing the interest in UAV, the needs of research for operating the flying object which is not directly visible when it conducts a certain mission to remote place is obviously grown as much as developing high performance pilotless plane is required. One of the project supported by government is related to the use of UAV for logistics fields and controlling UAV to deliver the certain items to isolated or not-easy-to-access place is one of the important issues. At the initial stage of the project, the previous researches for controlling UAV need to be organized to understand current state of art in local researches. Thus, this study is one of the steps to develop the unmanned system for using in military or commercial. Specifically, we focused on reviewing the approaches of controlling UAV from origination to destination in previous in-country researches because the delivery involves the routing planning and the efficient and effective routing plan is critical to success to delivery mission using UAV. This routing plan includes the method to avoid the obstacles and reach the final destination without a crash. This research also present the classification and categorization of the papers and it could guide the researchers, who conduct researches and explore in comparable fields, to catch the current address of the research.

This study presents optimum design of plane steel bridges considering corrosion effect by using teaching-learning based optimization (TLBO) method. Optimum solutions of three different bridge problems are linearly carried out including and excluding corrosion effect. The member cross sections are selected from a pre-specified list of 128 W profiles taken from American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC). A computer program is coded in MATLAB to carry out optimum design interacting with SAP2000 using OAPI (Open Application Programming Interface). The stress constraints are incorporated as indicated in AISC Allowable Stress Design (ASD) specifications and also displacement constraints are applied in optimum design. The results obtained from analysis show that the corrosion effect on steel profile surfaces causes a crucial increase on the minimum steel weight of bridges. Moreover, the results show that the method proposed is applicable and robust to reach the destination even for complex problems.

Delay in the air transport occurs when passengers, baggage or cargo do not arrive at their destination at the time indicated in the contract of carriage. The causes of delay in the carriage of cargo are no reservation, lack of space, failure to load the cargo on board, loading the cargo on the wrong plane, failure to off-load the cargo at the right place, or to deliver the covering documents at the right place. The Montreal Convention of 1999 Article 19 provides that "The carrier is liable for damage occasioned by delay in the carriage by air of cargo. Nevertheless, the carrier shall not be liable for damage occasioned by delay if it proves that it and its servants and agents took all measures that could reasonably be required to avoid the damage or that it was impossible for it or them to take such measures." The Montreal Convention Article 22 provides liability limits of the carrier in case of delay for cargo. In the carriage of cargo, the liability of the carrier is limited to 17 SDR per kilogram unless a special declaration as to the value of the cargo has been made. The Montreal Convention Article 19 has shortcomings: it is silent on the duration of the liability for carriage. It does not give any indication concerning the circumstances to be taken into account in cases of delay, and about the length of delay. In conclusion, it is desirable to define the period of carriage with accuracy, and to insert the word 'unreasonable' in Article 19.

Aeronautical communication networks (ACN) is an emerging concept in which aeronautical stations (AS) are considered as a part of multi-tier network for the future wireless communication system. An AS could be a commercial plane, helicopter, or any other low orbit station, i.e., Unmanned air vehicle, high altitude platform. The goal of ACN is to provide high throughput and cost effective communication network for aeronautical applications (i.e., Air traffic control (ATC), air traffic management (ATM) communications, and commercial in-flight Internet activities), and terrestrial networks by using aeronautical platforms as a backbone. In this paper, we investigate the issues about connectivity, throughput, and delay in ACN. First, topology of ACN is presented as a simple mobile ad hoc network and connectivity analysis is provided. Then, by using information obtained from connectivity analysis, we investigate two communication models, i.e., single-hop and two-hop, in which each source AS is communicating with its destination AS with or without the help of intermediate relay AS, respectively. In our throughput analysis, we use the method of finding the maximum number of concurrent successful transmissions to derive ACN throughput upper bounds for the two communication models. We conclude that the two-hop model achieves greater throughput scaling than the single-hop model for ACN and multi-hop models cannot achieve better throughput scaling than two-hop model. Furthermore, since delay issue is more salient in two-hop communication, we characterize the delay performance and derive the closed-form average end-to-end delay for the two-hop model. Finally, computer simulations are performed and it is shown that ACN is robust in terms of throughput and delay performances.

This paper presents a simulation for passenger ship evacuation considering determination of evacuating direction based on walking direction potential function. In order to determine walking direction of a passenger, his/her position in two dimensional plane was adopted as a design variable, and fixed boundaries such as walls and obstacles were adopted as constraints. To solve this optimum problem, a walking direction potential function was adopted as an objective function. This potential function was configured as a kind of penalty function and it contained two components. One is a potential function concerned with the distance to the destination, and other is a potential function based on the effect of walls and obstacles. To determine evacuating direction, this problem was solved by minimizing the walking direction potential function every unit time during the simulation. The crowd behavior of the passenger consisted of the flock behavior, a form of collective behavior of a large number of interacting passengers with a common group. With the proposed algorithm, the test problems in International Maritime Organization, Maritime Safety Committee/Circulation 1238(IMO MSC/Circ.1238) were implemented and the direction of passengers and total evacuation time was analyzed.

바르샤바협약 제1조에 의하면 국제운송이 아닌 경우, 즉 출발지, 도착지 모두가 체약국이 아닌 경우 및 순수한 국내운송에는 본 조약이 적용되지 않는다. 따라서, 이 경우에는 책임 및 손해배상에 대해서는 국제사법을 따라 준거법이 선택되어 져야 한다. 또한 국제운송의 경우에도 본 조약이 항공운송인과 승객의 모든 관계를 규율하는 것이 아니라, 어느 일정한 규칙의 통일이 목적이다. 이 "어느 규칙"의 적용범위에 없는 사건에는 국내법이 적용된다. 가장 중요한 것은 무엇보다도 제조물책임이다. 항공기제조자의 책임에 관해서는 역시 국제사법을 따라 준거법을 선택하지 않으면 안 된다. 또한 바르샤바협약 제17조가 적용되는 승객의 인신적 손해에 대해서는 제2조 2항 단서에서 명문으로 손해배상의 종류 및 주관적, 객관적 범위에 관해서는 국내법에 맡겨지고 있다. 이 경우에 법정지실질법에 의한다는 견해와, 법정지국제사법에 의한다는 견해가 대립되고 있다. 항공기사고 준거법관련 대표적인 대형사고로 중화항공기 일본 나고야공항 추락사고를 들 수 있다. 이 사고는 Air Bus사가 제조하고 중화항공이 소유 운항하는 타이완(타이베이)발 일본(나고야) 도착예정 항공편인 여객기가 목적지 나고야 공항에 착륙하기 위해 강하하던 중, 나고야 공항 부근에 추락하여 승객, 승무원 등 264명이 사망하고 승객 7명이 부상당하고, 수화물 등이 멸실된 대형 항공기사고이다. 이 사건에서 원고는 사망한 승객 및 승무원의 유족 및 생존 피해자 중 1명이며, 본건 사고항공기의 운항자인 중화항공에 대하여는 "국제항공운송에 대한 규칙의 통일에 관한 조약(헤이그의정서, 1967년 조약 제11호)"에 의해 개정된 바르샤바협약(1953년 조약 제17호; 이하, 개정 바르샤바협약이라 한다) 제17조, 제18조에 의해 손해배상 청구권 및 불법행위에 의한 손해배상청구권에 기초하여, 또한 본건 사고 항공기의 제조사인 Air Bus사에 대해서는 불법행위에 의한 손해배상청구권에 기초하여 연대손해배상을 청구한 사건이다. 생존자 1명과, 일본 내 유족회, 대만의 유족들로 구성된 통일 원고단은 총236명의 손해배상청구에 대한 판결에서 중화항공에 대한 배상제한을 부정하고, 손해전액의 배상책임을 긍정하여 총 50억 2640만여엔의 지급을 명하였다. Air Bus사의 책임에 대해서는 "기체의 설계가 곧바로 결함이라고는 할수 없다"고 하여 청구를 기각하였다. 타이완 거주 피해자의 손해에 있어서 일실이익의 산정에 대해서는 "원칙적으로 사고 전의 현실 수입액에 기초하여 장래에 걸쳐 얻어질 이자수입액을 인정하고, 이것을 기초수입으로 산정해야 함은 일본거주 피해자의 경우와 ... 다른 점이 없다"고 판시한다. 중화항공사측은 이 판결을 받아들여 즉시 "판결을 존중하며, 보험회사에 배상사무를 진행시킨다"는 성명을 발표하였고, 상소하지 않는다는 방침을 표명했다. 당시의 사고지역인 일본경제신문 조간에 의하면 상소한 원고의 대부분이 상소취하에 의한 판결의 확정을 바라고 있었으며, 동 소송은 제소시부터 8년여가 지나면서 대부분의 원고에 대해서 마무리 될 전망이었다. 상소하지 않는 이유에 대해서는 중화항공의 대리인이 "재판에 오랜 시간이 소요되고, 유족이나 관계자에게 심적 부담을 주는 것 이었다. 판결에서는 받아들여지지 않은 점도 있지만, 더 이상 중화항공측과 다투는 것은 피하고 싶다"고 했다. 판결에까지 이른 항공사고소송으로서는 원고수로 보나 청구액에서 최대 규모라 할 수 있다. 이러한 대규모적 손해배상청구사건에서는 항공회사의 책임에 대하여, 항공운송계약의 위반으로 계약준거법을 결정하는 것이 아주 복잡하다. 개별적인 사정에 기초한 계약체결지나 출발지, 도달지 등을 감안하여 각각 결정하여야 하기 때문이다.
