  • The growth rate of international aviation is expected to be higher than that of most industries and the proportion of carbon emissions from the aviation industry will become very significant as the year 2050 approaches. Constraining the growth of this industry is not desirable because it is essential for human welfare as well as the development of related industries. However, reduction of carbon due to aviation is not easy because it is difficult to improve fuel efficiency in a significant way. The ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), which is the main organization responsible for handling this problem, developed a program named CORSIA (Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation). The present study analyzes various strategies for countries and airlines to comply with CORSIA using a fuel-efficient system. We conclude that countries should improve their airspace utilization systems, airport facilities, and air navigation systems. Additionally, based on the results of a flight data analysis, airlines should improve their operational efficiency in terms of operations control, flight operation, and maintenance management.

  • 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.

  • Theories of international organization have explained the creation, maintenance, and decline of international organization. However, their explanations on changes of international organization have been much more different one another. For example, the theory of hegemonic stability argues that international organization can be created and maintained only by a hegemonic state and will be declined if the hegemonic state decline. On the other hand, the functional approach believes that the positive functions and effects that international organization provides motivate states to create and maintain the organization, while the game-theoretical approach explains international organization based on cost-benefit calculation of rational states. Thus, the empirical evaluation of the arguments of the theories of international organization and defining the major factors that determine international organization are necessary not only for the development of theories of international organization but also for making desirable policies toward international organization. For the purpose, this paper compares and contrasts the three major theories of international organization and applies the approaches to the case of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) to test their arguments. Since the ICAO has been rarely examined by the theories of international organization, the case study could be desirable case to evaluate theories of international organization. In this sense, this paper attempts to define the major factors that determine the creation, maintenance, and decline of the ICAO. In particular, since the Korean government has changed its policy for air transport security system recently, it will investigate the role of ICAO on the policy change to define the limits and strength of ICAO. In conclusion, this paper will assess the relative explanatory power of each approach based on the analysis of the creation and changes of ICAO

  • The high oxidants, which occur the daily maximum concentrations in the afternoon, are transported into the other region via long range transport mechanisms or trapped within the shallow mixing boundary layer and then removed physically (deposition, transport by mountain wind, etc.) and chemically (reaction with local sources). Therefore, modeling formation of photochemical oxidants requires a complex description of both chemical and meteorolog ital processecs . In this study, as a part of air quality studies, we reviewed various aspects of photochemical modeling on the basis of currently available literature. The result of the review shows that the model is based on a set of coupled continuity equations describing advection, diffusion, transport, deposition, chemistry, emission. Also photochemical oxidant models require a large amount of input data concerned with all aspects of the ozone life cycle. First, emission inventories of hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxides, with appropriate spatial and temporal resolution. Second, chemical and photochemical data allowing the quantitative description of the formation of ozone and other photochemically-generated secondary pollutants. Third, dry deposition mechanisms particularly for ozone, PAN and hydrogen peroxide to account for their removal by absorption on the ground, crops, natural vegetation, man-made and water surfaces. Finally, meteorological data describing the transport of primary pollutants away from their sources and of secondary pollutants towards the sensitive receptors where environmental damage may occur. In order to improve our present study, shortcomings and limitation of existing models are pointed out and verification Process through observation is emphasized.

  • A sequence of visually experimental observations was conducted to investigate the flow boiling and two-phase flow in a coiled tube. Different boiling modes and bubble dynamical evolutions were identified for better recognizing the phenomena and understanding the two-phase flow evolution and heat transfer mechanisms. The dissolved gases and remained vapor would serve as foreign nucleation sites, and together with the effect of buoyancy, centrifugal force and liquid flow, these also induce very different flow boiling nucleation, boiling modes, bubble dynamical behavior, and further the boiling heat transfer performance. Bubbly flow, plug flow, slug flow, stratified/wavy flow and annular flow were observed during the boiling process in the coiled tube. Particularly the effects of flow reconstructing and thermal non-equilibrium release in the bends were noted and discussed with the physical understanding. Coupled with the effects of the buoyancy, centrifugal force and inertia or momentum ratio of the two fluids, the flow reconstructing and thermal non-equilibrium release effects have critical importance for flow pattern in the bends and flow evolution in next straight sections.

  • Due to the recent rapid increase in passenger and cargo air transport demand, the capacity of Jeju International Airport has been approaching its limit. Even though in COVID-19 crisis which has started from Nov 2019, Jeju International Airport still suffers from strong demand in terms of air passenger and cargo transportation. However, it is an undeniable fact that the delay has also increased in Jeju International Airport. In this study, we analyze the correlation between weather and delayed departure operation based on both datum collected from the historical airline operation information and aviation weather statistics of Jeju International Airport. Adopting machine learning techniques, we then analyze weather condition Jeju International Airport and construct a delay prediction model. The model presented in this study is expected to play a useful role to predict aircraft departure delay and contribute to enhance aircraft operation efficiency and punctuality in the Jeju International Airport.

  • 항공운송계약은 객체에 따라 항공여객운송계약과 항공물건운송계약으로 분별된다. 항공운송 사고는 인적 물적 피해를 수반하기 때문에 피해의 분석을 다각도로 접근할 필요가 있으며, 항공운송인의 손해배상책임 논의는 크게 (1) 원인 사유, (2) 제한 사유, (3) 면제 사유로 나눠볼 수 있다. 우리 상법에서 손해배상책임의 소멸을 위한 면제사유는 조약과 국내법이 혼재되어 있는바 이에 대한 가늠이 필요하다. 상법과 항공운송 관련 조약은 항공운송인은 여객의 연착으로 인한 손해에 대하여 항공운송인측이 손해를 방지하기 위해 합리적으로 요구되는 모든 조치를 취하였다는 것 또는 조치를 취하는 것이 불가능하였다는 점을 증명한 경우에는 책임이 면제된다. 그래서 어떠한 경우에 합리적으로 요구되는 모든 조치의 요건을 달성하였는지가 문제이다. 개정 상법 항공운송편은 국제항공운송에서 세계적으로 활용되는 조약들의 내용을 우리 실정에 맞게 반영하여 국제적 기준에 맞으면서 체계상으로도 육상 해상 항공운송을 포괄하는 특징을 갖고 있다. 그러나 상법은 운송계약상 항공운송인의 손해배상책임 문제를 규율하는 몬트리올 협약을 주로 반영하면서 동 협약이 가지고 있던 문제들도 그대로 안게 되었으므로 국내 상황에 맞게 변형 및 생략을 통해 동 협약의 규정을 수용함으로 인해 발생하는 문제들도 생겨나게 되었다. "상법" 제907조 제1항 제909조 제914조에서의 '합리적으로 요구되는 모든 조치'에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 항공운송으로 인한 손해에 관하여 항공운송인에게 기산일로터 2년 내에 재판상 청구가 없으면 항공운송인의 책임은 소멸하는데 이와 같은 2년의 제소기간은 국내법상 어떤 의미로 해석되는지 여부와 연장이나 중단은 합리적인 주의와 사고방지를 위한 적극적인 조치를 다하는 것으로 판단해야 할 것이다.

  • In this paper, Human-in-the-Loop (HiTL) simulations of Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) operations in two different Air Traffic Management (ATM) concepts, conventional radar vectoring and Trajectory Based Operations (TBO), were performed to assess the impacts of RPAS integration in the future ATM environment. TBO concept maximizes the throughput by planning and sharing 4-D trajectories between pilots and controllers, and it is considered one of the key concepts to enable RPASs to operate with manned aircraft in congested airspaces. RPASs are characterized by having communication delay or temporary loss of communication. TBO capability was added to the integrated air traffic simulation system for this study, which was developed in the Inha University. HiTL simulations were performed by a trainee air traffic controller with three scenarios, and the data were analyzed using safety, efficiency, and controller workload metrics. The results suggest that TBO were effective in reducing delays and controller workload while maintaining the level of safety.

  • 1999년 몬트리올협약이 제정되기까지는 1929년의 바르샤바협약을 중심으로 한 바르샤바체제가 국제항공운송책임과 관련한 기본 체제가 되어 왔었다. 그러나 유한책임, 과실책임 원칙을 기반으로 한 운송인 보호 중심의 성격이 강한 바르샤바 체제가 급속한 성장을 이룩한 항공운송분야의 시대적 수요에 부응할 수 없게 되면서 이를 하나로 통합하고 현대화한 조약제정의 시대적 필요성에 의하여 탄생한 것이 1999년 몬트리올협약이다. 몬트리올협약은 크게 2가지의 의의를 가지고 있다. 먼저 기존의 항공운송과 관련한 많은 조약들을 범세계적으로 통합하고 통일적인 기준을 제시했다는 점이고 따른 하나는 기존의 바르샤바 체제와는 다른 책임법리를 구성함으로써 소비자중심, 소비자 이익의 보호에 중점을 두었다는 점이다. 본 논문은 이러한 몬트리올협약의 내용 중 여객운송인의 책임을 중심으로 살펴본 것인바 책임성립요건으로써 여객의 사망 또는 신체상해와 같은 책임원인과 사고 등의 세부적 요건에서부터 새로이 도입한 제도 등 관련 문제를 살펴보았다. 즉, 몬트리올협약이 채택한 2단계책임제도를 비롯하여 신체상의 상해를 둘러싼 해석문제, 항공사고가성립하기 위한 요건을 둘러싼 문제, 제5 재판관할권 문제, 전자항공권의 도입에 따른 법적문제, 선급금 지급제도, 계약운송인과 실제운송인에 관한 규정 등 항공여객운송인의 책임과 관련한 전반적인 문제를 다루었다. 이들 중 10만 SDR까지는 항공운송인에게 엄격책임을, 10만 SDR 이상에 대해서는 항공운송인이 과실없음을 입증하지 못하면 무한책임을 지도록 하는 2단계 책임제도와 승객의 주거소지에서 소송 제기가 가능토록 한 제5 재판관할권 도입은 몬트리올협약의 가장 큰 특징이라 할 수 있다. 항공운송인이 10만 SDR이상의 경우에 있어서 무과실 입증이 결코 용이하지 않다는 점에서 사실상 무한책임을 도입하였다고 볼 수 있고 제5 재판관할권 도입과 관련하여서는 승객의 입장에서 소송을 제기할 수 있는 관할법원의 선택이 늘어났다는 점에서 피해자 보호에 획기적인 조치라 할 수 있다. 앞으로 항공여객운송 산업은 점점 더 보편화되고 일상화되고 항공여객운송의 수요는 더욱 증가할 것으로 전망된다. 따라서 이와 관련한 국제적 통일 책임협약인 몬트리올협약의 중요성은 더욱 커질 전망이다. 그러나 몬트리올협약은 이제 막 출발한 단계이어서 앞으로 많은 문제점과 해결해야 할 과제를 안고 있다고 본다. 예컨대 신체적 상해에 정신적 손해의 포함여부 문제, 상대적으로 배상금액이 높은 곳으로의 소송이 옮겨가는 Forum Shopping 문제, 강제보험을 도입에 따른 적절한 보험의 구체적 수준 문제 등이다. 국제적으로는 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위한 대책 마련을 지속적으로 노력할 필요가 있으며, 더 많은 체약국의 확보에도 힘써야 할 것으로 본다. 우리나라는 몬트리올협약에 2007년 9월 20일부로 가입하였고 동년 12월 29일 부로 국내적으로도 발효되었다. 더 나아가 우리나라는 본 협약에 기초한 항공운송법을 상법의 일부로 제정하여 시행하려 하고 있다. 이러한 사실은 몬트리올협약이 우리 항공운송업계에도 현실이 되었다는 것을 의미한다. 따라서 우리 항공운송업계도 이에 따른 대비를 하는 것이 필요하다고 본다.

  • Air quality modeling about coastal urban region such as Pusan shoud be consider shipping source emmited from ships anchoraging and running. It has been proved at our previous studies that the ratios of air pollutants emission amount in coastal area to inland are 12.2% for NO$_2$ and 11.7% for $SO_2$ and the air qualify of coastal urban area consierably counts on ships. Also the dispersion pattern of the all pollutants followed local circulation system in this region. Therefore this study has been developed air quality model which can describe the formation, transport, transformation and deposition processes of air pollutants considering shipping source. Currently, restriction for emission amount of ships does not exist, so our study will be useful to set the omission standard and for devising air quality policy in coastal urban region.
