  • Electrical power peak demand of Republic of Korea is annually growing and the peak demand has occurred in the summer. It is difficult that we handle with constructing power plants and increasing generation capacity to cope with a suddenly increased demand due to the cost problem, difficulty to find the new plant site, and the spread of the NIMBY. The alternative of the above problem is to efficiently manage demand of electrical power. Accordingly, load shedding of a section of demand side management is investigated. First we surveyed a trend of research in the domestic and overseas, for load curtailment and demand response program. After reviewing several demand response programs, the future research direction for load shedding in emergency and normal operation is introduced.

  • Submarine gas fields have focused because of the increasing fuel cost, the environmental regulations, and the safety & NIMBY problems. LNG-FPSO which is available for acid gas removal, recovery of the condensate & LPG and Liquefaction in topside process is one of high technology offshore structures. On the other hands, it is necessary to verify the pre-treatment efficiency by the ship motion and to apply to the design for LNG-FPSO. This study is to develop the pre-treatment technology for LNG-FPSO as taking account to the process efficiency by ship motion effects and the area optimization. Based on the simulation results, it founds that hybrid process shows the low circulate rate, the low heat duty and the small size of column dimensions compared to typical amine process. It will be verified the process efficiency in the various conditions by sea states as performing the 6-DOF motion test and CFD simulation.

  • This technical note introduces a newly-proposed concept of deep horizontal drillhole disposal of spent nuclear fuel, and considers how it can be applied in the Korean environment. This disposal concept, in which high-level radioactive waste is disposed in deep horizontal drillholes installed with directional drilling technique, is expected to have great advantages over the existing deep mined repository concept in economics and safety. Since this concept is still at the idea level, however, it is necessary for worldwide expert groups to demonstrate its safety and performance. In addition, the development of guidelines by the regulatory body should be supported. The Korean circumstances, which include a narrow territory and a high population density, as well as the amount of spent nuclear fuel, make the NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard) phenomenon very strong and the siting conditions difficult. Under these conditions, if the disposal section of deep horizontal drillhole concept can be located at the continental shelf, with a stable environment, rather than in a coastal land area, it is expected to alleviate the psychological anxiety of the local community and stakeholders. Moreover, even when constructing a centralized deep mined repository in the future, it is necessary to consider locating the repository in the continental shelf.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the attitude toward multi-cultural families. Method: The Q-methodology which provides a method of analyzing the subjectivity of each item was used. Thirty nurses classified the 34 selected Q-statements into a normal distribution using a 9 point scale. The collected data was analyzed using the Quanl PC program. Result: Four types of attitudes toward multi-cultural families were identified. The first type(value-neutral acceptance) considered multi-cultural families as individual's choice so they accepted it as one type of families and they persisted that nobody can oppose or blame for it. The second type(inevitable acceptance) considered multi-cultural families as a necessary evil that can solve the problem of old bachelors' seeking marriage. The third type (NIMBY: Not in my backyard) understood various advantage of multi-cultural families but they opposed their own family's intermarriage. The fourth type(negative prejudice) considered intermarriage as trading for the benefit of each other and they had strong antipathy against multi-cultural families. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that different approaches of educational program based on the four types of attitudes toward multi-cultural families are recommended.

  • The article examines the attempts made at economic revitalisation of Ljubljana's inner city and the consequences or "collateral damage" of this process. A lot of attention is given to the wider socio-cultural context, in which art istic practices are embedded in the city, and to the Slovenian population's perception of such practices. Artistic groups and their practices are in this sense used as part of an 'interim development' strategy, i.e. temporary guests(non-statutory tenants) are warmly welcomed because their (sub) cultural capital happens to cultivate the area, making it "cool" and attractive, but when the value of the area's real estate begins to rise their low-income status does not grant them any tenant protection. Regardless of the social role they played in revitalising the city, these groups are therefore gradually ousted from neighbourhoods, which quite ironically are often advertised in the real estate market as the city's "Bohemian" or "cultural" quarters. This makes us aware of the lack of unique alternative or informal spaces, venues for alternative art movements and practices in the cities. These issues are presented on the cases of the alternative spaces of Metelkova and the Rog Factory, both located in Ljubljana'sinnercity.

  • Recently, there has been an increase in the demand for natural gas as a source of clean energy, which has increased the demand for LNG carriers. However, LNG carriers require a capital investment to obtain equipment for the regasification process, which prevents fires and explosions. Thus, on account of NIMBY, a CNG carrier is suggested that eliminates the need for regasification equipment. Meanwhile, carbon dioxide emissions are more and more regulated by international conventions such as the Kyoto Protocol. Because of this, $CO_2$ carriers have also received international attention as a methodology to transport and store $CO_2$ cargoes. Several vessels or tanks to transport and store $CO_2$ gas have been studied in various countries. This paper proposes a conceptual design for a 20ft container shaped tank to effectively transport small cargoes of $CO_2$ and CNG. The proposed pressure vessel or tank will be carried by a conventional containership or special cargo ship. The influences of the design parameters for proposed pressure vessel or tank. Including the materials, scantlings, and shape of the pressure vessel, are studied theoretically and computationally.

  • This paper describes the construction scheme of new distribution system using HTS(High Temperature Superconducting) power equipments such as cable, transformer and FCL(fault current limiter). At present, one of the most serious problems in distribution power system, especially for metropolitan complex city, is to obtain the ROW for cable line routes, space for downtown substations and satisfy the environmental protection caused by NIMBY phenomena. Unfortunately, it is expected that this situation will get more and more worse. As the HTS technology to apply in power system Is developed, HTS cable utilizing mass-capacity characteristic can be a useful countermeasure to overcome this problem. This paper describes the application methodology of 22.9kV HTS cable with low-voltage, mass-capacity characteristics replacing the 154kV conventional cable. By applying 22.9kV HTS cable, the HTS transformer with higher capacity for the reduction of space and transformer numbers of downtown substation is necessary. Also, if the leakage Impedance of HTS transformer is same as or lower than that of conventional transformer, the fault current of 22.9kV bus will increase because the HTS transformer capacity is larger than that of the conventional transformer. This means the parallel application of HTS-FCL to reduce the fault current in addition to the HTS cable and transformer can be necessary. With the basic construction scheme of new distribution system, this paper describes the future study points to realize this new distribution system using HTS equipments.

  • Land price can be affected by convenience or psychological repulsion like PIMFY (Please In My Front Yard) or NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard) for various facilities. Services related to public establishment, welfare, medical attention, and amenities in rural areas are comparatively poorer than those in urban areas. The purpose of this study is to estimate the implications of the accessibility to community facilities in rural areas for land prices using a hedonic price model. The accessibility to facilities is estimated by real road distances and the land prices are applied for four types of land usages: field, rice paddy, building lots, and village halls. Community facilities are classified from public and community services view: education, safety, culture, transport, environment, health care, and finance. The results show that the accessibility to health care and transport can positively affect land prices and the accessibility to environment (waste facilities and junkyard) and unpleasant services (funeral hall and charnel house) can negatively affect land prices. Especially, the accessibility to hospital is the most positive influential factor for all types of land usages.

  • 오늘날 폐기물 매립장의 구조적 안정성문제는 국내.외적으로 중요한 문제로 대두되고 있으며, 특히, 사면의 차수체계에서의 안정성에 대한 논란이 사회적 문제로 대두되고 있다. 또한, 우리 나라는 주민들의 NIMBY 현상과 국토의 효율적 활용을 위하여, 폐기물 매립장을 해안매립지나 산간지방에 많이 건설하고 있다. 그러나, 이러한 경우 사면구배가 급해지고 토목섬유의 활용이 불가피해져 안정성에 많은 문제점을 내포하게 된다. 이 연구는 폐기물 매립장 사면의 안정성을 해석하기 위하여, 원심모형실험을 실시하였다. 또한, 이론식 및 사면안정 해석 프로그램을 이용하여 안전을 산정하였다. 이 연구에 사용한 토목섬유 점토차수재(GCLs)의 팽윤도는 침출수와 증류수의 투과수에 대하여 22~25%의 팽윤도를 보였으며, 투수계수는 투과수가 침출수일 경우, 1.47$\times$10-10cm/sec, 증류수일 경우, 8.75$\times$10-11cm/sec의 값을 나타내었다. 원심모형실험 결과, 토목섬유 점토차수재의 포화여부와 지오멤브레인(HDPE)의 표면거칠기에 따라 사면 안전율이 각각 변화함을 알 수 있었으며, 표면이 거친 지오멤브레인과 건조한 토목섬유 점토차수재를 사용하였을 때, 파괴가 발생되지 않아 사면안정성이 높은 것으로 평가되었다. 또한, 이론에 의해 도출된 사면의 안전율과 사면안정 해석프로그램에 의한 안전율 계산 시, 전자의 경우가 후자의 경우보다 작게 평가됨을 알 수 있다.
