  • 오늘날 사람들은 지구상에서 발생하고 있는 여러 물리화학적인 자연 현상들이 지엽적 또는 단편적인 원인에 의해 지배되는 것이 아니라 전지구적인 규모에서 복합적인 원인들에 의해 발생하고 있으며 개개의 현상들 역시 서로 독립적이지 못 함을 알고 있다. 따라서 학자들은 이러한 여러 현상들에 대한 조사·연구뿐만 아니라 이러한 연구들을 통하여 각각의 현상들이 갖는 상호 연관성에 대한 이해를 넓히기 위해 노력하고 있다. (중략)

  • Soil dust particles transported from loess regions of the Asian continent, called Asian dust, highly influences the air quality of north-eastern Asia and the northern Pacific Ocean. The effects of these dust storms, on the chemical composition of atmospheric aerosol particles with different size, was investigated. Measurements of size distributions of total aerosol and major ion species were carried out on Jeju Island, Korea. (omitted)

  • The purpose of this thesis is studying for a legal basis and definition of Oil Record Book. In the thesis, comparing with the laws related to punishment for false entry of Oil Record Book of the maritime countries and korea Act. Studying the improvement marine pollutants from ships by suggesting legal and institutional proposal which are able to make themselves increase effectiveness for recording and inspection of Oil Record Book. Suggest the solution of the problems raised in this thesis, First, The Oil Record Book should not be the evidence which is having the effectiveness simply after the accident of marine pollution, but take sanction on pre-inspection of Oil Record Book as establish the concrete administrative punishment for each contents-based record of Oil Record Book. Second, It should set up of judgement criteria of false entry of Oil Record Book by port state control officer. Third, It should strengthen the legal effectiveness of Oil Record Book contents such as Code(c) ; oil residue, Code(d); relating to bilge discharge by including premeditation for false entry of Oil Record Book. Also, The enhancement of role for marine pollution prevention manager raise the effectiveness of Oil Record Book as recognizing the importance of Oil Record Book.

  • The Kyunggi Bay in mid-west of Korea is a relatively large estuarine system that connects the Han River system with Yellow Sea. Due to macro-tidal range of more than 8 m, the urban estuary shows deep tidal channels and wide tidal flats. Since last 30 years, the coastal development is undergoing, yielding noticeable change in environment. Particularly the tidal flat dynamics are generally accepted as being related with tidal residual flows in this area (Kim et al., 2009). We have estimated the annual variation and vertical structure of residual currents with one-year long observed flows in two major tidal channels of Kyunggi Bay. The moving average method and tidal current harmonic analysis yield nearly the same results on residual flow. The residual flow in Jangbong channel ranges from 20 cm/s in summer to 30 cm/s in winter. It is noticeable that the residual flow in Jangbong channel is flood dominant throughout the year, while the flow in Seokmo channel is ebb-dominant residual flow with current speed range of 20-40 cm/s. Due to the baroclinic response of relatively shallow estuary, significant reduction of energy in bottom layers have been observed, indicating the importance of residual circulation to the tidal flat behavior.

  • Changing the world, Smartphone has appeared in our lives. People feel convenient in their lives or work. The growth of Smartwork has developed for years all over the world. It has many functions, for instance it is not only help to save energy but also reduce environmental pollution at office or company. There are lots of reasons for this. Eventually Korea is well known as IT industry. So it is the best place to build. In order to achieve Smartwork, there must be service like infra, device, software and so on. Therefore in this study, we'll find business model(Blue ocean strategy) for Smartwork service, and apply into this.

  • The submarine is an underwater weapon system which covertly attacks the enemy. Pressure hull of a submarine is a main system which has to have a capacity which can improve the survivability (e.g., protection of crews) from the high pressure and air pollution by a leakage of water, a fire caused by outside shock, explosion, and/or operational errors. In addition, pressure hull should keep the functional performance under the harsh environment. In this study, optimal design of submarine pressure hull is dealt with 7 case studies done by analytic method and then each result's adequacy is verified by numerical method such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA). For the structural analysis by FEM, material non-linearity and geometric non-linearity are considered. After FEA, the results by analytic method and numerical method are compared. Weight optimized pressure hull initial scantling methods are suggested such as a ratio with shell thickness, flange width, web height and/or relations with radius, yield strength and design pressure (DP). The suggested initial scantling formulae can reduce the pressure hull weight from 6% and 19%.

  • Sediments play a major role in determining pollution pattern in aquatic systems and reflecting the pollutant deposition. In the present study analysis the depth effect of organic pollutants and heavy metals using slow release biostimulant ball (BSB) in coastal sediment. BSB size fixed at 3cm, depth varied from 0cm to 10cm depth and 1 and 3 month interval period was carried out for the study. The organic pollutants of chemical oxygen demand, total solids and volatile solids were significantly changed at the surface sediment (0cm)in 1 month and 3 month interval time using BSB. In contrast, sediment depth increase upto 10cm the reduction percentage decrease like to control. Vertical distribution of heavy metals are not consistent from the surface layer toward the bottom layers. Heavy metals fractions were significantly changes, the exchangeable fraction was reduced and other organic and residual fractions were stabilized percentage are increased. This finding concluded BSB is effective for reduce organic pollutants, heavy metals stabilization from the contaminated sediment.

  • By according to increase the research for autonomous vehicle in automobile industries, the efficient of autonomous cargo truck instead of conventional driver cargo truck will be analyzed in logistics areas. The inland transportation has been serious problem such as traffic accident, traffic congestion in downtown, air pollution, noise and etc. even if it have a great effect to logistics industries. Especially there have to be improved its transportation schedule and sleepy driving in night which induced heavy accident in highway. In this study, the effectiveness of autonomous cargo truck will be analysed by considering the logistics cost including social effects.

  • Organic pollution causes eutrophication and dystrophication, which occur when excessive amounts of organic matter enters seawater. Eutrophication can contaminate sediment and harm aquaculture. Polychaeta species have been shown to restore eutrophic sediment. In this study, we used peptone to simulate a eutrophic environment and detect the levels at which eutrophication became toxic to the polychaete Perinereis aibuhitensis. Peptone concentrations were 0, 100, 200, and 500 mg/L. The median lethal concentrations were 950.35 mg/L at 48 h, 340.34 mg/L at 72 h, and 120.22 mg/L at 96 h, which are much higher than those of other aquatic species. Polychaeta species are highly tolerant of eutrophication. During the 15-day long-term experiment, sediment loss on ignition, as well as seawater total organic carbon and total nitrogen all decreased significantly (P<0.05). However, $NH_4^+$ concentration increased with time. Perinereis aibuhitensis slowed the increment of $NH_4^+$ but could not prevent its increase. Our results indicate that this polychaete is helpful in the recovery of seawater and sediment from eutrophication.
