This study was done to compare nutrient intakes, anthropometric indices, and psychosocial factors related to smoking by smoking status among adolescent girls in Seoul. Subjects were high school students, and smokers were 17.6%. Nutrient intakes were analyzed by convenient method, and anthropometric measurements were done by Inbody 2.0. Psychosocial factors of smoking were examined based on the Theory of Planned Behavior : 26 attitudinal, 9 normative, and 17 control beliefs were used. Smokers smoked 5-7 cigarettes a day on average, with 1.26 pack-years of smoking, There were no significant differences in anthropometric characteristics, except fat distribution, between smoking(n=92) and nonsmoking(n=92) and nonsmoking(n=94) group. The percentage of alcohol groups. Especially, caloric intake (63.6% of RDA) were much below the recommended level. With respect to psychosocial factors, 18 out of 26 attitudinal beliefs were significantly different between smokers and nonsmokers. Smokers responded less negatively on the items of bad health effects of relax(p<0.001). In addition, smokers were more convinced of advantages of smoking (test, etc.)but responded less negatively on the disadvantages of smoking(bothering others, yellow teeth, bad breath, etc.). Smokers expressed less pressure for not smoking from siblings, friends, school seniors than nonsmokers. In addition, smokers, expressed less confidence in controlling the urge to smoker or quitting smoking in several situations, such as 'after a meal', 'feel bored', 'with friends', 'when angry' offered a cigarette by friends', 'drinking coffee or tea', 'drinking alcohol', 'seeing others smoke'(p<0.001). Smokers also felt less developing in applying specific skills for controlling the urge to smoker or quitting smoking. These findings suggest the need for developing smoking cessation programs for adolescent females, focusing on specific beliefs identified in this study.

If a spoiler was attached to the pipeline investigated in a previous study, a strong flow and vortex at the lower part caused scouring and thus an asymmetric pressure distribution, which assisted in the analysis of the self-burial structure where a down force was applied to the pipe. However, only the fluid-pipe interaction was considered, excluding the medium (seabed), when practically burying the pipeline. Thus, this study applied a numerical model (LES-WASS-2D) to directly analyze the non-linear interactions among the fluid, pipe, and seabed in order to perform numerical simulations of a pipeline with a spoiler installed on the seabed. This allowed the self-burial mechanism of a pipeline with a spoiler to be analyzed in the same context as the previous study that considered only the fluid-pipe interaction. However, when a pipeline was installed on the seabed, a strong flow and vortex were found at the front of the bottom, and a spoiler accelerated the fluid resistances. This hydraulic phenomenon will reinforce the scouring and down force on the pipeline. In the general consideration of the numerical analysis results by the specifications and arrangements of the spoiler, a pipeline with a spoiler was found to be the most effective for the self-burial function.

In Shinjeong-dong of Jeongeup, there are three government-supported research institutes and an RFT industrial complex which is currently being established. Increased human activities can affect flora and fauna as a man-made pressure onto the region. As a baseline study, status of exotic plants was investigated prior to a full operation of the RFT industrial complex. A total of 54 species and 1 variety of naturalized or introduced plants were found in the study area. Among them, three species (Ambrosia artemisifolia var. elatior, Rumex acetocella and Aster pilosus) belong to 'nuisance species', and four species(Phytolacca americana, Iopomoea hederacea, Ereechtites hieracifolia and Rudbeckia laciniata) to 'monitor species' designated by the ministry of Environment. Some of naturalized trees and plants were intentionally introduced in this area, while others naturally immigrated. Physalis angulata seemes to immigrate in the study area in the form of mixture with animal feeds as its distribution coincided with the transportation route of the animal feeds. Liquidambar styraciflua is amenable to the ecological investigation on the possible expansion of the species to the nearby Naejang National Park as its leave shape and autumn color are very similar to those of maple trees. The number of naturalized plants around the RFT industrial complex will increase with an increase in floating population, in human activities in association with constructions of factories and operations of the complex. The result of this study provides baseline data for assessing the ecological change of the region according to the operation of the RFT industrial complex.

Coastal dunes have many environmental and ecological socio-economic importances; various human activities, however, have impaired their structures and functions over the years. In 2016, environmental survey on coastal sand dune was carried out to report the present status and update the coastal sand dune list in 2001. This research analyzed the survey data in terms of geomorphological and socio-economic aspects. A list of the 189 coastal sand dune and information was updated by province. A 36.5% reduction in coastal sand dune area have been identified for using agricultural land, development area since the approximately 1940-50s. Development area in coastal sand dune covered small area as 5%, the use intensity was relatively hard. Furthermore, the difference by province also showed. Approximately 80% of the development area was concentrated in 20% of total sand dune several sand dune. It is generally accepted that coastal sand dunes were exposed high development pressure. However the result means that the general brief dose not apply for all sand dune. Therefore, characteristics of each sand dune should be analyzed and concerned the diverse management plans.

본 연구에서는 실제 가압장 및 가압장후단부의 상수도관망에 발생가능한 수충격해석을 수행하고 신뢰성해석을 수행하여 파괴확률을 정량적으로 산정하였다. 이를 위해 가압장의 펌프운영조건을 다르게 적용하였고 관말단부의 압력센서를 이용하여 토출압을 선택적으로 운영하면 수충격의 규모도 작아지고 파괴확률도 대폭 줄어드는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 가압장의 토출압을 선택적으로 운영하기 위해서는 관말단부에 필수적으로 충분한 수압이 존재해야하며 이를 위해서 실시간 모니터링이 가능한 압력계를 설치하게 된다. 이 압력계로부터 수신되는 데이터를 통하여 펌프의 운영이 이루어지고 최소한의 에너지 사용을 통해 효율을 증대하고 피해율도 저감하게 된다. 본 연구에서 개발된 센서기반 펌프운영시스템이 적용된 실제 상수도관망은 현재 가압장의 운영조건으로 24시간 75m의 펌프 토출압을 유지하고 있으며 관말단부의 수용가에 충분한 수압이 전달되고 있다. 가압장의 고압유지는 관말단부에 충분한 수압을 전달하기 위한 것이지만 상수도관망에서 누수와 시설물에 대한 많은 피해를 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 가압장의 펌프토출압을 75m와 60m로 선택적 운영을 할 수 있도록 프로그램을 개발하였다. 기존 가압장의 운영조건과 선택적 운영조건을 사용하여 수충격해석을 수행하였고 신뢰성해석모형을 사용하여 파괴확률을 정량적으로 산정할 수 있었다. 가압장의 운영조건을 최적화하여 효율은 증대하고 피해율을 저감할 수 있는 방법을 찾을 수 있었다. 이를 위해서 가압장의 인버터 설치는 물론이고 펌프의 최적운영을 위해 개발된 펌프운영 프로그램을 가압장 배전반에 장착하여 경제적인 운영이 될 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 실제 상수관망에서 과도한 수압으로 인해 발생할 수 있는 여러 가지 피해를 최소화할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 기존의 펌프장 토출압으로 운영되었을 때와 비교하여 에너지 절감율을 정량적으로 산정하여 비교분석하였다. 가압장 후단의 작은 마을을 대상으로 하여 절감된 전기요금은 적은 양이라 할 수 있겠으나 개발된 시스템을 전국에 적용한다면 에너지 절감으로 인한 경제적 파급효과는 크다고 할 수 있다.

상수관망 시스템의 목적은 수요자에게 양적으로 안정하고 질적으로 안전한 용수를 적정 수압으로 공급하는 것이다. 그러나, 상수관망 시스템은 노후화, 시공 중 파손 등 다양한 내 외적 요인들에 의해 파괴가 불가피하며, 이를 복구하는 과정에서 단수는 필연적으로 발생하게 된다. 단수피해를 효율적으로 감소시키는 방법은 인근 배수블록과의 비상연계를 실시하는 것이다. 비상연계란, 관망의 파손 등 비정상상황 발생 시 단수구역에 용수를 공급하기 위해, 인접한 배수블록과 연결된 비상관로를 운용하여 인접 배수블록으로부터 단수구역에 용수를 공급하는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구에서는 비상연계 시 연계공급을 실시하는 배수블록에서의 문제점이 아닌 연계공급을 받는 배수블록에서의 문제점을 실제 A시 관망을 바탕으로 분석하고, 이에 대한 해결책을 제안하였다. 실제 A시에서는 직경 600mm 간선관로(수지식)의 파손으로 2지 배수블록 하단부가 단수되는 사고가 발생하였다. 이에 단수피해를 최소화하고자 인근 배수블록인 1지 배수블록과의 비상연계를 실시하였으나, 2지 배수블록 하단부의 말단부분에서 고압이 발생하고 관로 파손과 같은 추가적인 문제가 발생하였다. 본 연구에서는 A시에서 실시한 비상연계 시나리오를 구축한 후 수원에서의 유한함을 고려할 수 있는 A-PDA 기반 수리해석을 실시하여 대한 고압발생의 원인을 분석하였다. 고압 문제의 원인은 연계 공급을 실시하는 1지 배수블록과 2지 배수블록간의 고도차에 의해 발생한 것으로 사료되며, 이에 대한 해결책으로 감압밸브 추가 설치, 주요 관로 복수화 방안을 제시하였다. 이후 각 해결책에 따른 모델을 구축한 후 수리해석을 실시하여 해결책이 상수관망에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 본 연구는 실제 관망에서 비상연계 시 발생한 문제를 분석함으로써 비상연계 시스템 구축 시 추가적으로 발생 가능한 문제 및 해결방안을 제안하였다.

A thermo-fluid dynamic analysis was performed through the numerical simulation of a missile canister. Calculation was made in a fixed analytical volume and fully evaporated water was used as a coolant. To analyze the interaction among the hot gas, coolant, and mixture flow, Realizable $k-{\varepsilon}$ turbulence and VOF(Volume Of Fluid) model were chosen and parametric study was performed with the change of coolant flow rate. It could be found that the pressure on the canister top nonlinearly increased with the increase of coolant flow rate. Temperature and coolant distribution were closely related to the flow behavior in canister. Temperature on the canister bottom indicated a decrease being proportional to coolant flow rate in early times but after a specific time, the temperature increased with the tendency being reversed. In addition, the early part of temperature showed a fluctuating phenomenon because of the overall circulatory flow of mixture gas.

Low-order panel methods are being used to design marine propellers. Since the potential value over each panel for these methods is assumed to be a constant, the accuracy of prediction is known to be limited. Therefore, a higher order boundary element method(HOBEM) has been studied to enhance the accuracy of prediction. In this paper, a HOBEM representing the body boundary surfaces and physical quantities by a 9-node Lagrangian shape function is employed to analyse the flow around marine propellers in steady potential flow. First, the numerical results for a circular wing with thickness variations are compared with Jordan's linear solution. Then, the computational results of two propellers(DTRC 4119 & DTRC 4842 propeller) are compared with the experimental and numerical results published. The pressure distribution on the surface of the propeller is also compared with experimental data.

Rubber compounds have a high viscoelastic property. One of the viscoelastic behaviors during profile extrusion is the swelling of extrudate, and the amount of swelling varies with operational conditions in extrusion. It is well recognized that the elastic portion in the viscoelastic property plays an important role in the extrudate swell. In this study computer simulation of the die swell at the capillary die for several rubber compounds has been performed using commercial CFD code, Polyflow. A non-linear differential viscoelastic model, Phan-Thien-Tanner (PTT) model, was used in the computer simulation. Non-isothermal behavior was considered in the calculation. Distribution of pressure, velocity and temperature in the reservoir and capillary die, and extrudate profiles were predicted through the simulation. The amount of the die swell fur the different rubber compounds was investigated for various flow rates and three types of length to diameter of the capillary die. It is concluded that the PTT model successfully represented viscoelastic behavior of rubber compounds.

Numerical analysis and experimental study are performed to investigate the effect of heat load and operating temperature on the thermal performance of several variable conductance heat pipe (VCHP) with screen meshed wick. The heat pipe is designed in 200 screen meshes, 500 mm length and 12.7 mm outer diameter tube of copper, water (4.8 g) is used as working fluid and nitrogen as non-condensible gas (NCG). Heat pipe used in this study has evaporator, condenser and adiabatic section, respectively. Analysis values and experimental data of wall temperature distribution along axial length are presented for heat transport capacity, condenser cooling water temperature change, degrees of an inclination angle and operating temperature. These analysis and experiment give the follow findings: For the same charging mass of working fluid, the operating temperature of heat pipe becomes to be high with the increasing of charging mass of NCG. When the heat flux at the evaporator section increases, the vapor pressure in the pipe rises and consequently compresses the NCG to the condenser end part and increases the active length of the condenser. From previous process, it is found out we can control the operating temperature effectively and also the analysis and experimental results are relatively coincided well.
