The offshore structures exposed to harsh corrosive such as the marine environment is essential for the quality management technique throughout the life cycle of initial design, construction and operation. Also, it should satisfy the design life and ensure the safety of the substructure with optimization of design process. This study focused on optimization of design condition for corrosion protection of wind turbine structure and computational analyzing was performed to evaluate the performance of corrosion protection with utilizing practical experimental data. We expect this analytical study contribute to improve the corrosion maintenance stability and economical efficiency of designing wind turbine structures. As a result, the design of cathodic protection system using sacrificial anodes required accurate identification of current density in order to meet the long term design life, which can be seen that a change of structure surface's coating breakdown factor is one of the key influencing factors.

NFPA-803 has been referred as the Fire Protection Standard at the Nuclear Power Plants of Pressurized Water Reactor. This Standard has been used as the fire protection regulation, containing prescriptive requirements with deterministic methodology. Recently, with cumulative efforts by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and Utilities in America to establish a new Standard, including a quantitative evaluation methodology, NFPA-805, the Performance-Based Standard for FIRE Protection for Light Water Reactor Electric Generating Plants was issued and approved by the American National Standards Institute as an American National Standard with an effective date of February 9, 2001. This paper presents an analysis result from the computer modeling for the fire simulation In addition, it proposes the idea that this kind of analytic method can be available for the facilities design of fire prevention and protection fields, as well as an evaluation for the fire suppression system with a quantitative analysis for the thermal phenomena in fire compartments in Nuclear Power Plants.

자동차 범퍼시스템은 자동차의 외형을 결정할 뿐만 아니라 충격으로부터 차체와 보행자를 보호하는 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 본 연구에서는 범퍼시스템을 해석하기 위하여 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션이나 충격테스트에 의존하지 않고 효과적으로 범퍼시스템을 설계하기 위한 설계기술을 개발하였다. 이를 위해서 차체를 외부 충격으로부터 보호하기 위해 충분한 강도 및 강성을 확보해야 한다는 것과 동시에 충돌 시 보행자 보호를 위해 충분한 연성을 확보해야 하는 조건을 만족시킬 수 있는 빔의 단면과 폼의 두께 또는 물성을 결정해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 설계자가 설계 초기단계에서 위의 제약 조건들을 만족하는 최적의 범퍼구조를 신속하게 결정할 수 있는 신뢰성 있는 설계기술을 개발하였다.

The door stiffness is one of the important factors side impact. Generally, the researches have been conducted on the assembled door module. This study is to analysis the side impact characteristics for automotives door module. The impact characteristics have been determined by door module side impact test machine. To determine the initial, intermediate and peak crush resistances use the plot of load versus displacement and obtain the integral of the applied load with respect to the crush distances specified below for each door tested. The initial crush resistance is the average force required to deform the door through the initial 6 inches of crush. The intermediate crush resistance is the average force required to deform the door through the initial 12 inches of crush. The peak crush resistance will be directly obtained from the plot of load versus displacement since it is the largest force required to deform the door through the entire 18 inches crush distance. The data are used to determine if a specific vehicle or item of automotives equipment meets the minimum performance requirements of the subject Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard(FMVSS). FMVSS Static 214, Side impact protection, specifies performance requirements for protection of occupants in side impact crashes.

The KN-12 transport cask has been designed to transport 12 PWR spent nuclear fuel assemblies and to comply with the regulatory requirements for a Type B(U) package. The containment boundary of the cask is defined by a cask body, a cask lid, lid bolts with nuts, O-ring seals and a bolted closure lid. The containment vessel for the cask consists of a forged thick-walled carbon steel cylindrical body with an integrally-welded carbon steel bottom and is closed by a lid made of stainless steel, which is fastened to the cask body by lid bolts with nuts and sealed by double elastomer O-rings. In the cask lid an opening is closed by a plug with an O-ring seal and covered by the bolted closure lid sealed with an O-ring. The cask must maintain a radioactivity release rate of not more than the regulatory limit for normal transport conditions and for hypothetical accident conditions, as required by the related regulations. The containment requirements of the cask are satisfied by maintaining a maximum air reference leak rate of $2.7{\times}10^{-4}ref.cm^3s^{-1}$ or a helium leak rate of $3.3{\times}10^{-4}cm^3s^{-1}$ for normal transport conditions and for hypothetical accident conditions.

RFID 시스템에서 사용자의 프라이버시를 보호하기 위해서는 기밀성, 불구분성, 전방 보안성 등의 3가지 필수 보안 요건을 만족시키는 프라이버시 보호 프로토콜이 필요하다. Ohkubo et. al[2]가 제안한 Hash-Chain 기반 프로토콜은 기존에 제안된 프로토콜 중에서 필수 보안 요건을 만족하는 안전한 RFID 프라이버시 보호 프로토콜이나, 백엔드 서버에서 태그를 판별하는 시간이 매우 길다는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Hash-Chain 기반 프로토콜의 안전성은 그대로 유지하면서 백엔드 서버에서 태그를 판별하는데 걸리는 계산 시간을 단축하는 방안을 제안한다. 제안 기법은 Hash-Chain 기반 프로토콜 기법보다 백엔드 서버에서의 계산 시간을 현저하게 단축시키는 결과를 보여준다.

Background: Malawi's 2018 National Energy Policy includes nuclear power as an energy option with an operational 100 MW targeted for 2035. Materials and Methods: This paper challenges the scope of the policy on nuclear power by reviewing its implementation strategy and comparing it to: the strategy established for coal in the same policy; some experiences from other countries; and documents by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) relating to establishing a national position on nuclear power and infrastructural requirements for a nuclear power program. Results and Discussion: It is found that the pro-nuclear position is uninformed, and targets are unrealistic owing to a lack of understanding of nature of nuclear power including the requirements for safety, security and safeguards, and nuclear infrastructure. It is apparent that neither consultation nor a proper analysis were comprehensively conducted for nuclear. Though the national energy policy suggests a national position for nuclear energy, the content does not demonstrate that the position was arrived at knowledgeably. Conclusion: Thus, nuclear power may presently be viewed as a potential energy option that is yet to be seriously considered. It is important to build an appropriate level of literacy on nuclear science and technology for policy makers, key stakeholders, and the public to be better positioned for strategizing on nuclear power.

Combat vehicles are frequently maneuvered in battlefields when the lives of combatants are being threatened. These vehicles are important elements that influence the consequences of a battle. Their armor must be lightweight and provide excellent protection to ensure successful operations. Ceramic composite armor has recently been developed by many countries to fulfill these requirements. We reviewed previous research to determine an effective armor design, and then fabricated a composite armor structure using $Al_2O_3$ and glass fiber-reinforced polymer. Specimens were manufactured under controlled conditions using different backing plate thicknesses and bonding methods for the ceramic layer and the backing plate. The penetration of an armor-piercing bullet was evaluated from ballistic protection tests. The bonding method between the ceramic layer and the fiber-reinforced polymer influenced the ballistic protection performance. A bonding layer using rubber provided the best protection.
