A geosynchronous Satellite in general, has two momentum management logics to maintain its wheel momentum tin the stable region. The one is applied in order to control accumulative wheel momentum in the momentum dumping mode and the other is utilized in order to control attitude errors during the stationkeeping. In this paper, the momentum management logics are explained for dumping/sationkeeping mode and the logics are verified by simulation on the 3 attitude subsystem.

This paper describes the design and performance verification of a pitch momentum bias control system being built by students at the Space System Research Laboratory(SSRL). HAUSAT-2 ADCS(Attitude Determination and Control of Subsystem) op-elation mode is divided into two parts, initial mode and on-orbit mode. This paper describes design of the HAUSAT-2 performance of attitude control results using pitch momentum bias control method in initial mode and on-orbit mode and momentum dumping method.

Moonpools are vertical wells in a floating body used onboard many types of vessels like Exploration and drilling vessels, Production barges, Cable-laying vessels, Rock dumping vessels, Research and offshore support vessels. Moonpool gives passage to underwater activities for different types of ships as per their mission requirements. It is observed that inside a moonpool considerable relative motions may occur, depending on shape, depth of the moonpool and on the frequency range of the waves to which the ship is exposed. The vessel responses are entirely different in zero and non-zero Froude number. Former situation is paid attention in this study as the mission requirement of the platform is to be in the particular location for long period of operation. It is well known that there are two modes of responses depending on the shape of the moonpool viz., piston mode for square shape and sloshing mode for rectangular shapes with different aspect ratios of opening like 1:1.5 and 1:2 ratios. Circular shaped moonpool is also tested for measuring the responses. The vessel moored using heavy lines are modelled and tested in the wave basin. The pretensions of the lines are varied by altering the touchdown points and the dynamic tensions on the lines are measured. The different modes of oscillations of water column are measured using wave gauge and the vessel response at a particular situation is determined. RAOs calculated for various situations provide better insight to the designer.

The front end wheel loader is widely used for the loading of materials in mining and construction fields. It has repetitive digging, loading and dumping procedures. The bucket is subjected to large resistance force from the soil during scooping. We considered the soil reaction force characteristics from scooping procedure, the protection by overload and automatic scooping mode algorithm. The main topic of this paper is the analysis of the soil reaction force characteristics. The analysis of soil mechanics is carried out and the developed soil model is verified by experimental results from the simplified experimental equipment. A simplified model of the soil shape and bucket trajectory is used to determine the scooping direction based on an estimation of the resistance force applied on the bucket during the scooping motion. In the future, this model will be used for the generation of an appropriate path for the wheel loader automation.

Most of marine pollution have been occurred by oil spill accidents resulted from ship accidents in South Korea. This year there were two large oil spill accidents: the Yeosu Oil Spill Accident (2014.01.31.(Fri.) 09:35 LT) and the Captain Vangelis L. Oil Spill Accident (2014.02.15.(Sat.) 14:00 LT). In general, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is used in monitoring and detection of oil dumping and spilled oils by accident at sea. Therefore it is expected that KOMPSAT-5, launched successfully last year, will take part in that mission during a normal operation mode. After the two accidents, high spatial resolution optical satellite data including KOMPSAT-3 were acquired February 2 and 14, 2014. In this presentation, we analyzed optical properties of spilled oils from optical satellite imagery to estimate the spilled area and the volume at each region. Finally, a satellite application planning for ocean surveillance in South Korea will be presented.

STSAT-2 will be launched on December 2007 by the first Korean launch vehicle KSLV-1, and its one of the main instruments is DREAM (Dual Channel Radio Frequency and Environment Atmosphere Monitoring) which detects a signal for atmosphere from the Earth by using micro-wave signal. The STSAT-2 has many units for technology demonstration such as FDSS (Fine Digital Sun Sensor) and DHST (Dual Head Star Tracker) including PPT (Pulsed Plasma Thruster) for attitude control and momentum dumping in the space. In this paper, the power budget analysis for STSAT-2 will be studied and provided for supporting the whole mission life time during the mission of its spacecraft.
