Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) and NRC's Institute for Ocean Technology (IOT) collaborated on a project to predict the performance of a new design for a Suezmax size tanker that had acceptable open water performance but was also capable of operating in ice. The resulting hull form was a single screw, single rudder design with a bulbous bow, modified for operation in ice. An important design consideration is the ability of the ship to maneuver in different ice conditions. This paper presents the results of maneuvering experiments in pack ice and level ice, using a free running model.

The ice tank is important facility to check the performance of the ship and offshore in ice condition before the construction. MOERI(Maritime & Ocean Engineering Research Institute) constructed ice model basin on the end of 2010. The ice technology to know the phenomena of ice near the ship and to estimate power of the ship in model scale is the main characteristic of the ice model basin. To achieve this goal in one ice sheet, making of test plan and feasibility check of test possibility have to review in the beginning stage of the every test. This paper describes the number of maximum resistance and self propulsion test in a sheet of level ice and proposes the methodology to optimize pack ice, rubble ice, brash ice and ice ridge test in MOERI ice tank. The feasibility of free running test to know maneuvering performance in ice field and some specific idea to measuring ice thickness and ice ridge shape was proposed.

Satellite passive microwave(PM) sensors have been observing polar sea ice concentration(SIC), ice temperature, and snow depth since 1970s. Among them SIC is playing an important role in the various studies as it is considered the first factor for the monitoring of global climate and environment changes. Verification and correction of PM SIC is essential for this purpose. In this study, we calculated SIC from KOMPSAT-1 EOC images obtained from Arctic sea ice edges from July to August 2005 and compared with SSM/I SIC calculated from NASA Team(NT) algorithm. When we have no consideration of sea ice types, EOC and SSM/I NT SIC showed low correlation coefficient of 0.574. This is because there are differences in spatial resolution and observing time between two sensors, and the temporal and spatial variation of sea ice was high in summer Arctic ice edge. For the verification of SSM/I NT SIC according to sea ice types, we divided sea ice into land-fast ice, pack ice, and drift ice from EOC images, and compared them with SSM/I NT SIC corresponding to each ice type. The concentration of land-fast ice between EOC and SSM/I SIC were calculated very similarly to each other with the mean difference of 0.38%. This is because the temporal and spatial variation of land-fast ice is small, and the snow condition on the ice surface is relatively dry. In case of pack ice, there were lots of ice ridge and new ice that are known to be underestimated by NT algorithm. SSM/I NT SIC were lower than EOC SIC by 19.63% in average. In drift ice, SSM/I NT SIC showed 20.17% higher than EOC SIC in average. The sea ice with high concentration could be included inside the wide IFOV of SSM/I because the drift ice was located near the edge of pack ice. It is also suggested that SSM/I NT SIC overestimated the drift ice covered by wet snow.

The present paper deals with characteristics of resistance performance according to the variation of synthetic ice thickness and hull form. The resistance test has been conducted with pack ice condition in Pusan National University towing tank. Waterline angle has been chosen as a main parameter for the variation of hull form characteristics, which is the most important factor especially in icebreaking cargo vessel. The serial comparisons of resistance test have been done with the variation of hull form parameter as well as with the different thickness of synthetic ice. The different trend of resistance performances with increasing of waterline angle has been shown at each synthetic ice thickness. The present test results is expected to be confirmed by comparing the test results in ice tank in the near future.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the application of temperature to balance the training by observing the effect of sensory changes in the foot sole area on dynamic equilibrium ability through change in the sole temperature. Methods: Participants (n=49), who were selected as a certain standard, applied cold and hot packs for ten minutes at two-week intervals, and the laboratory's internal temperature was maintained at $25^{\circ}C$. The subjects were measured before and after the cold and hot applications in the stable condition with bare feet. Before each experiment applied the cold and hot packs, the balance ability of the ordinary temperature was measured once by conducting a limit of stability test using Biorescue, and the changes in balance ability were observed by measuring once after applying the temperature to the foot sole by means of the ice pack and the hot pack. Results: The results of the dynamic balance test, both before and after the temperature application, were compared, and it was confirmed that the moving area before and after cold application decreased significantly, and the moving area before and after application was not significantly different. The mean of pre-post area differences was found to have decreased at a statistically significant rate in the forward, backward, rightward, leftward, and total areas for the group that received the cold application compared to the group that received the hot application. Conclusion: These findings showed that cold application to the foot sole decreased dynamic balance. There was no significant difference in the dynamic balance ability both before and after the hot application to the foot sole, so it is difficult to conclude that the hot application affected dynamic balance.

Phlebotomy, a therapeutic method of bloodletting typically performed using a needle, has a traditional technique known as "Fasd." In this method, blood is extracted by creating a longitudinal incision on a vein (3-5 mm) with a surgical scalpel blade, usually blade No. 11. Due to the incision in the vessel wall, establishing hemostasis is more challenging compared to conventional methods. Hemostasis is usually achieved within minutes after Fasd. We present a case highlighting an uncommon yet significant complication of traditional phlebotomy. A 55-year-old man with no prior medical conditions underwent traditional phlebotomy at an academic traditional medicine clinic. Senior MD-PhD students in Iranian Traditional Medicine, under professor supervision, performed Fasd. A sterile scalpel blade No. 11 was used to create a longitudinal incision of approximately 4 mm on the patient's median basilic vein in the right hand. After removing 400 cc of blood, a pressure dressing was applied to the incision site. Despite attempts such as hand elevation, ice pack application, prolonged direct pressure, and tight elastic bandaging, bleeding from the incision persisted. After an hour of supportive therapy, hemostasis was eventually achieved within a few minutes using burnt cotton dressing (a traditional method for blood hemostasis). Following intravenous hydration, the patient was discharged in stable condition and reported no issues during the one-month follow-up. The traditional phlebotomy (Fasd) carries the risk of serious complications, including uncontrolled and prolonged bleeding. Further research on the efficacy and safety of burnt cotton dressing for controlling hemostasis is recommended.

2017년 겨울, 기록적인 한파로 인해 바다가 얼면서 인천 앞바다로 유빙이 유입되었다. 2013년 해상에서 유빙이 발견된 이후 약 5년만에 다시 유빙이 등장한 것이다. 중부청 소속 항공단 순찰결과에 따르면, 2018년 1월 12일 인천대교 인근 해상에서 최초로 발견된 이후 강화 연안, 영종도 북단 등 해상에서 광범위하고 불규칙한 형태로 유빙이 분포되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. 유빙의 문제점은 해상에서 선박의 안전운항을 저해하고 경비함정의 안전에 지장을 초래하며 기름 유출 시, 유출유의 거동 특성이 달라져 일반적인 방제방법의 적용이 곤란한 점이다. 이에 따라 해상에서의 해양오염사고 대응방안 마련을 위해 저온 및 유빙 유입 해상에서 유출유의 거동 특성을 알아보았다. 구분인자를 극한의 추위(Extreme Cold), 유빙(Pack Ice), 정착빙(Fast Ice) 3가지로 분류하여 기름의 성상변화 및 시사점을 살펴보고, 유출된 기름의 효율적 방제를 크게 3가지로 분류(기계적 봉쇄 및 회수, 화학적 분산제의 사용, 현장소각)하였다. 일반적인 방제장비를 저온 및 얼음분포 해상에서 사용 시 슬러시화 된 얼음으로 인해 유출유 회수가 어렵고, 동결온도에서 장비가 오작동할 우려가 있다. 이미 북유럽 국가에서는 극한의 추위와 얼음분포 해상에 특화된 방제장비를 도입하여 해양오염대비 대응을 하고 있다. 2003년 3월 발틱해에서 불법적으로 유출한 선저폐수를 특화 장비는 brush bucket 유회수기 이용 방제조치한 사례가 있으며, 2006년 5월 같은 장소에서 선박 침몰로 인한 기름 유출이 발생했을때도 brush bucket 유회수기 이용 방제조치를 하였다. 국내에도 이상 기후로 인해 기록적인 한파가 지속되면서 북극에서나 볼 법한 유빙들이 발견되고, 해양오염사고는 언제 어디서나 발생할 수 있으므로, 해양오염방제의 임무를 맡고 있는 국가기관으로써 특수한 환경까지도 고려하여 대응방안을 마련할 필요가 있다. 해양오염이 재난으로 인식되고 있는 상황에서, 그리고 지구온난화로 인한 이상기후변화가 지속되는 상황에서 겨울철 유빙 유입은 점점 더 많아질 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 자료나 방제경험이 부족하므로 일찌감치 북극항로 개발로 앞선 방제기술과 경험을 가지고 있는 북극이사회를 벤치마킹하여 관할 해역 특성에 맞는 대응방안을 고찰해 본다.
