  • This paper is the logical follow-up of four papers by the author on the subject "aerodynamics in Mars atmosphere". The aim of the papers was to evaluate the influence of two Mars atmosphere models (NASA Glenn and GRAM-2001) on aerodynamics of a capsule (Pathfinder) entering the Mars atmosphere and also to verify the feasibility of evaluating experimentally the ambient density and the ambient pressure by means of the methods by McLaughlin and Cassanto respectively, therefore to correct the values provided by the models. The study was carried out computationally by means of: i) a code integrating the equations of dynamics of an entry capsule for the computation of the trajectories, ii) two Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) codes for the solution of the 2-D, axial-symmetric and 3-D flow fields around the capsule in the altitude interval 50-100 km. The computations verified that the entry trajectories of Pathfinder from the two models, in terms of the Mach, Reynolds and Knudsen numbers, were very different. The aim of the present paper is to continue this study, considering other aerodynamic problems and then to provide a contribution to a long series of papers on the subject "aerodynamics in Mars atmosphere". More specifically, the present paper evaluated and quantified the effects from the two models of: i) chemical reactions on aerodynamic quantities in the shock layer, ii) surface temperature, therefore of the contribution of the re-emitted molecules, on local (pressure, skin friction, etc.) and on global (drag) quantities, iii) surface recombination reactions (catalyticity) on heat flux. The results verified that the models heavily influence the flow field (as per the shock wave structure) but, apart from the surface recombination reactions, the effects of the different conditions on aerodynamics of the capsule are negligible for both models and confirmed what already found in the previous paper that, because of the higher values of density from the NASA Glenn model, the effects on aerodynamics of a entry capsule are stronger than those computed by the GRAM-2001 model.

  • LEO(Low Earth Orbit) Satellite which is discarded should be reentered to atmosphere in 25 years by '25 years rule' of IADC(Inter-Agency Space Debris Coordination Committee) Guidelines. If the parts of satellite are survived from severe aerothermodynamic condition, it could damage to human and property. South Korea operates KOMPSAT-2 and STSAT series as LEO satellite. It is necessary to dispose of them by reentering atmosphere. Therefore this paper analyze the trajectory, survivability, casualty area and casualty probability of a virtual LEO satellite using ESA(European Space Agency)'s DRAMA(Debris Risk Assesment and Mitigation Analysis) tool. As a result, it is noted that casuality area is $15.2742m^2$ and casualty probability is 5.9614E-03 then will be survived 198.831kg.

  • In the recent, Chinese insurance market has taken a introduction of InsurTech. It is a combination of insurance and fintech. This means that the policyholder design their own insurance and take out the policy on-line without insurance planner. This trend is remarkable issue. Growth rate of InsurTech in China have significantly been growing. In addition, Chinese insurance market has kept generally stable and fast growth rate, although Chinese forecasting economic growth is subject to massive uncertainties. Nevertheless, the increase in the number of Korean insurance companies fails to settle into Chinese insurance market due to lack of awareness about newness of Chinese insurance market. Moreover, Korean insurance company in China or planning to enter are not prepared for InsurTech yet. Chinese insurance market is valuable for Korean insurance companies. This paper suggests implications of re-entry into Chinese insurance market to Korean insurance companies by analyzing policies which could make environment to endorse Chinese insurtech and case of Chinese insurtech companies.

  • Existing studies have argued that, compared to the 1990s, the Japanese foreign direct investment (FDI) in the 2000s became multi-faceted in terms of investment motivation, ownership structure and entry mode, and diversification strategy. We have conducted a cross-sectional analysis and compared our results with the recent findings. We have found that the Japanese FDI in the mid 2000s became globally focused and regionally diversified. Ownership strategy and entry mode of the Japanese FDI in the Asian countries shows a remarkable shift from joint venture to wholly-owned subsidiary. In contrast, the preference of greenfield investments was observed consistently across regions. It seems that, after the Asian financial crisis, the Japanese firms began to re-optimize global FDI strategy and to regionally differentiate investments.

  • The oxygen dependent regulation of DNA replication is an essential property of proliferating mammalian cells. In human T24 bladder cancer cells, several hours of hypoxia leads to reversible DNA replication arrest and re-entry of oxygen induces a burst of replication initiation. This short communication provides strong evidence that PD184352 initiates DNA replication in living hypoxic cells without elevating the oxygen level. PD184352 releases the regular hypoxic replicon arrest, however, at a low intensity compared to the effect of reoxygenation. Moreover, PD184352 shows no effect on normoxically incubated as well as reoxygenated T24 cells.

  • The objective of this study is to find out what factors affect the persons with disabilities who want to seek jobs again and to propose the policy for the re-employment support for the persons with disabilities based on the results of analysis. The disabled employment panel data were analyzed for this study. This study used a logistic regression analysis. This study tells that factors which affects the re-employment of the persons with disabilities are gender, education, chronic disease status, and the help of others in daily life status, employment discrimination experience, and the type of employment. From the gender perspective, whereas men are in favor of re-employment in the clerical work, women are in favor of re-employment if they don't have a spouse or receive employment services. Through these analysis, it is proposed that policies for the specific female employment support and for the promotion of the entry into decent jobs, measures for the elimination of job discrimination and linkages with the employment of the persons with disabilities and medical/health sector.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate that effect of the social support to individual desire of reemployment and satisfaction to reemployed works of career interrupted women. We surveyed about 400 career interrupted women living in Seoul who quit their job within 3 years, analyzed collected data with empirical analysis, and applied structural equation analysis to verify the assumed model for this study. The results of this study showed that social supports influence career interrupted women's individual desire of reemployment, satisfaction to their work, and self-esteem. And the results also showed that the desire of reemployment performs a parametric role between social supports and satisfaction of reemployment. As a consequence, this study showed importance of social supports to reemployment of career interrupted women and satisfaction to their reemployment, therefore, can be helpful to build public policies to promote social manage of women resources.

  • The flight control of re-entry vehicles poses a challenge to conventional gain-scheduled flight controllers due to the widely spread aerodynamic coefficients. In addition, a wide range of uncertainties in disturbances must be accommodated by the control system. This paper presents the design of a roll channel controller for a non-axisymmetric reentry vehicle model using the trajectory linearization control (TLC) method. The dynamic equations of a moving mass system and roll control model are established using the Lagrange method. Nonlinear tracking and decoupling control by trajectory linearization can be viewed as the ideal gain-scheduling controller designed at every point along the flight trajectory. It provides robust stability and performance at all stages of the flight without adjusting controller gains. It is this "plug-and-play" feature that is highly preferred for developing, testing and routine operating of the re-entry vehicles. Although the controller is designed only for nominal aerodynamic coefficients, excellent performance is verified by simulation for wind disturbances and variations from -30% to +30% of the aerodynamic coefficients.
