  • With the recent prediction of 'Cycle 25', the importance of space weather research increases. Accordingly, the World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC)-23 has adopted Agenda Item 9.1a) and carried out sharing researches between active/passive space weather observation systems and existing services. Therefore, in this paper, in order to increase the precision of space weather environment data and secure the frequency spectrum for observation systems, the direct interference effect from the weather radar in Gosan, Jeju on the space weather observation receiver in Hallim, Jeju, and the indirect interference on the observation receiver by diffraction and scattering from the radar target have been analyzed. As a result, it can be known that the radar direction, the propagation direction diffracted and scattered from the target, and the Rradar Cross Section (RCS) of the radar target, the reception area of the space weather observation antenna, and the antenna off-boresight are important parameters for the interference effect analysis.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of sleep/wake behavior for shiftwork in air traffic controllers (ATCs) using wrist actigraph for ten workers on a continuous full-day three-team three-shift system of forward rotation including on-duty and off-duty periods. The wrist actigraph data were recorded for three days (one shift cycle) for each subject. The mean activity counts during an on-duty period progressively increased from the night, the swing, to the morning shifts. The doze length during on-duty periods showed decreases in the morning and swing shifts as compared to the night shift. Total sleep time (TST) and sleep efficiency (SE) during off-duty periods increased in the morning-1 and swing-night shift compared to the morning-2 shift. Finally, I discussed the role of doze-taking during the burden on night shift ATCs.

  • 금속의 기계적 강화방법인 결정립미세화의 일종으로 미세한 쌍정을 도입하여 기계적강도를 향상시키면서 전기전도도는 감소시키지 않는 방안으로 nanotwin 구조의 Cu가 보고되고 있다. Nanotwin 구조는 FCC결정구조에서 특정 결정면을 [(111) mirror plane]을 기준으로 정합계면을 유지하면서 원자층의 배열이 역전되는 구조가 수~수십나노 수준의 간격으로 이뤄진 미세조직을 의미한다. 전해도금법을 이용한 nanotwin Cu의 형성방법으로는 pulse 파형을 사용하는데, pulse파형의 on time동안의 높은 전류밀도로 인해 발생한 도금층의 stress가 off time동안에 release되면서 nanotwin구조가 형성되는 것으로 보고되고 있다. Nanotwin형성 조건으로 보고된 pulse 도금 조건은 수에서 수십밀리초의 on time에 duty cycle($t_{on}/(t_{off}+t_{on})$)이 1/100~1/10 수준이다. 본 연구에서는 전기이중층의 이온고갈에 필요한 회복시간인 수에서 수십 밀리초 보다 짧은 시간인 마이크로 초($1{\mu}s$, $10{\mu}s$$100{\mu}s$)의 pulse 전류를 인가하였을 때에 발생하는 구리 도금층의 미세조직의 변화에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

  • Fe-C alloy layers were produced by pulse plating and the properties were compared with those produced by D.C. plating. When the pulse on time ($T_{on}$ ) was the same, both the duty cycle and peak current density($I_{p}$ ) had little influence on the carbon content and the hardness of the layer. The structure and hardness of the direct current plating were similar to those of the pulse current plating. However, the ductility was enhanced when the pulse current was applied due to the release of residual stress during the pulse off time($T_{off}$).).

  • In this study, the characteristics of Wire Electrical Discharge Machining(WEDM) of the high-hardened mold steel were investigated. WEDM experiments have been carried out based on parameter of wire diameter, pulse on time, pulse off time, feed rate and cycle etc. From the results, the optimized WEDM cycle of RIGOR steel has been revealed as $5{\sim}7$ times. Also, geometrical accuracy of the Core Pin is dependent on WEDM wire radius machining condition and wire chattering.

  • In replicated field trials, the efficacy of pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB; quintozene) for control of damping-off of ginseng seedlings was found to be affected by timing of application and formulation. Application at the time of seeding and prior to placement of straw mulch was found to provide the moat consistent level of disease control. However, decline in plant stand during the four-year production cycle resulted in most treatments providing similar levels of plant populations at harvest. Soil residues of pentachloronitrobenzene were generally highest (1 $\mu\textrm{g}$ PCNB/g soil) in those treatments that exhibited the highest levels of disease control in the seedling year. Straw contained high levels of quintozene after application. Beet seed assays with artificially-infested soils indicated that current use rates provide an amount of product suitable for high levels of disease control.

  • The LNG carriers have been propelled by steam turbines and the LNG boil-off(BOG) has been used as fuel or vented. However, as the alternative propulsion systems such as diesel engines are being equipped on the LNG carriers for better fuel efficiency, a need for the LNG BOG re-liquefaction system that liquefies the BOG and sends the liquid BOG back to the LNG cargo has arisen in recent years. This study investigates the design of the BOG re-liquefaction system based on the reverse Brayton refrigeration cycle. The thermodynamic and heat exchanger analysis are carried out and the limitations to the system performance are discussed.

  • This paper outlines how the on-line performance monitoring system can be used to improve the efficiency and maintenance of the equipments. And a method of the heat rate allocation to each equipment was suggested to monitor the performance of combined cycle power plants. This calculates the expected heat rate of current conditions and compares it with actual values. Loss allocation in heat rate is reconciled by calculating the magnitude of the deficiency contributed by major components, such as the gas turbine, heat recovery steam generator, steam turbine and condenser. Expected power output is determined by a detailed model and correction curves of the plant. This simulation models are found to reproduce high accuracy in behavior of the cycle for various operating conditions, both in design and in off-design condition. Errors are lower than 2% in most cases.

  • Purpose: This study attempts to explore the subjective experience of frailty among elderly individuals in Korea. Methods: From June to August in 2014, 11 elderly persons who had experienced frailty in a community were interviewed. For data analysis, the method suggested by Colaizzi was applied as a phenomenological method. Results: According to the analysis, the study participants' frailty process was structured in seven categories: (a) 'natural phenomenon with ageing,' (b) 'life force comes to an end,' (c) 'the light in my heart turns off,' (d) 'unavoidable situation,' (e) 'continuous and connected vicious cycle,' (f) 'the limit of recovery energy already passes,' and (g) 'life is supported by someone's help.' Conclusion: The frailty experience in the participants is a natural process of aging, which cause vicious cycle acting with each other among physical, psychological, and social health. It is said that the cycle of frailty was started from weight loss and insufficient sleep, and boostered by pain. The participants from repetition of the vicious cycle become exhausted and pass the threshold of their recovery energy at some points. If they meet with sudden accidents such as falling, traffic accident and so on, they become to live a dependent life supported by someone's help in a moment. To prevent frailty and worsening conditions in Korean elderly individuals, it is recommended to provide a interventional programs using this study's results.

  • Conceptual design of RBCC (Rocket Based Combined Cycle) engine is performed through the thermodynamic cycle analysis. The engine is designed to take off at sea level and accelerate to Mach 8 at 30 km altitude. According to the flight speed, the engine operating modes are categorized into 3 modes : Ejectorjet (~ Mach 3), Ramjet (Mach 3~6), Scramjet (Mach 6~8). As a design result, the engine has a diameter of 1 m and a length of 6.7 m. In the prediction results, its maximum thrust is 16.5 ton. In Ramjet and Scramjet modes, design condition of the engine intake influence the engine thrust according to the flight speed.
