Korea's five leading industries-chemical, automobile, shipbuilding, metal and electronics-have been the growth engines of the Korean economy for the last 30 years. However, with their performance weakening in the past few years, Korea's annual growth rate has dropped to less than 2%. Just as the Japanese economy struggled through the lost decades, Korea's leading industries have been facing signals of arriving at a Strategic Inflection Point ("SIP") since the mid-2000s. The objective of this study is to present an appropriate value strategy for Korean firms in leading industries to gain sustainable competitive advantages. This paper examines the following issues : First, it diagnoses the signs and timing of SIP for the five leading industries. Second, this study examines 78 Korean and Japanese firms in order to understand the adaptation strategies of the highest and lowest performing firms from a value strategy point of view. Third, it empirically analyzes the correlation between the indicators of value strategy and the accounting performances of the Korean and Japanese firms. The data set used in the cluster analysis were collected from KISLINE database of NICE Information Service and annual reports. The findings in the case analyses of high and low performing companies show that high value-added specialty chemical materials and electronic component manufacturers that had a strong focus on value creation were defined as high performing companies. And in the cosmetic and automobile industries, companies with a strong emphasis on value appropriation gained high performance. Furthermore, the study conducted a cluster analysis based on two indicators R&D and advertisement expense. The analysis shows that a significant gap exists in the operating incomes among three groups classified under the value strategy. The study recommends that Korean firms are requested to increase R&D expenditure, conduct M&A and collaborate with companies that own source technologies to narrow the technology gap and improve their segment portfolio from commodity to value-added products.

Recently, various systems have been developed to support ship navigation safety. In order to verify the usefulness of such a system, it is most ideal to try it on a real vessel, but there are many difficulties. As an alternative, usability verification methods applied with modelling and simulation (M&S) techniques are required such as FMSS, which is closest to reality, is very expansive to construct, and there needs the specialized operator. For this reason, this paper proposes a method to verify the navigation safety support system by modeling and simulation techniques based on the Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) formalism. As a first step, we designed the navigation simulation architecture based on the SES/MB framework, and details on modelling ship core equipment and navigator agents based on the DEVS. Through this, we are able to implement the navigation simulation system for vessels, and evaluate the effectiveness of navigation safety support elements such as collision avoidance, etc. using developed scenarios.

As a new technical approach, an attempt was made to realize a photovoltaic system for an eco-environmental leisure ship by simultaneously actuating nine photovoltaic solar panels in association with the application of a sail-controlling system using wind energy. In this approach, the photovoltaic system consisted of a solar module, an inverter, a battery, and the relevant components, while the sail-controlling device was equipped with sail up/down and mast turning systems. The previously mentioned eco-environmental leisure ship utilizes a photovoltaic hybrid system that uses solar and wind energy as renewable energy sources. Furthermore, this research included a performance evaluation of the manufactured prototype, the acquisition of the purposed quantity values, and development of the purposed items. The significant items, including the sail up/down speed (seconds) and mast turning angle (degrees) were evaluated for a performance test. A wind direction sensitivity of 90% and maximum instant charging power of 900 W were also obtained in the process of the performance evaluation. In addition, the maximum sail time was also evaluated in order to acquire the optimum value. The performance evaluation showed that the prototype with a photovoltaic hybrid system was suitable for sailing an eco-environmental leisure ship using solar and wind energy.

TIG 용접에서는 후판 용접의 경우 용입의 한계 때문에 깊고 넓은 그루브 가공을 하여 다층 용접을 한다. 이 때, 그루브를 채우는 용착금속에 의한 응고 수축과 과대한 입열로 인한 변형이 문제시 되고 있다. 변형을 줄이기 위해서는 용착금속의 양과 입열량을 줄여야 한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 그루브의 루트패이스를 두껍게 하고 그루브각을 줄여서 용착량을 줄인다. 이때, 좁은 그루브에서 두꺼운 루트패이스를 완전 용입할 수 있는 용접 프로세스가 필요하다. 비드가 좁고 깊은 용입 특성을 가지는 Plasma welding(PAW) 경우에는 좁은 그루브 속에 토치가 접근하기 어려워 적용하기 어렵다. 따라서 접근성이 용이한 TIG 용접에서 높은 용입형상비를 가지는 용접공정 개발이 필요하다. 선행연구로 높은 용입 형상비를 가지는 Active flux Tungsten Inert Gas(ATIG) 용접이 연구되었다. ATIG의 용입 증가 메커니즘으로는 Marangoni effect, 음이온들로 인한 아크 수축 효과, 절연 플럭스에 의한 아크 수축효과 등으로 알려져 있다. 또한 선행연구에서 ATIG에서 Ar가스에 He 또는 $H_2$ 가스를 첨가하면 용입이 더욱 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 A-TIG에 He 가스를 적용하고 아크길이 0.5mm, 1.0mm, 2.0mm와 전극 선단각 30도, 60도, 90도에 따른 용입 형상비와 변형량을 검토하기 위해 실험을 하였다. 실험 결과는 아크길이가 감소할수록 전극 선단각이 증가할수록 용입 형상비는 증가하였고, 변형량은 감소하였다.

In a shipbuilding process, thermal damage to the ship structure at the rear end results from an excessive heat input and conduction during welding process. To prevent such damage, appropriate control of the heat input, based on welding temperature measurement, is required. For temperature measurement, contact and non-contact methods are available; the thermography system is a popular non-contact temperature measurement. When the intensity of radiation from a high-temperature object is excessive, however, detecting the sensors of ordinary thermography systems leads to an inability in measuring the temperature due to saturation. Hence, this study suggests use of a neutral density filter that prevents an excessive amount of radiation from being accumulated in a thermography system, and thus makes it possible to quantitatively measure an object's temperature as high as $3000^{\circ}C$.

This paper focuses on reverse simulation methods to find and analyze the required performance of a defense system under a given combat effectiveness. Our approach is motivated that forward simulation, that traditionally employs the effectiveness analysis of performance alternatives, is not suitable for resolving the above issue because it causes a high computational cost due to repeating simulations of all possible alternatives. To this end, the paper proposes a reverse simulation software architecture, which consists of several functional sub-modules that facilitate two types of reverse simulations according to possibility of inverse model design. The proposed architecture also enable to apply various search algorithms to find required operational capability efficiently. With this architecture, we performed two case studies about underwater and anti-air warfare scenarios. The case studies show that the proposed reverse simulation incurs a smaller computational cost, while finding the same level of performance alternatives compared with traditional forward simulation. Finally we expect that this study provides a guide those who desire to make decisions about new defense systems development.

To investigate the actual distribution condition and clothing construction factors of the working clothes supplied to the Changwon national industrial complex, 5 major companies in machinery, automotive, industrial engineering, shipbuilding and rolling stock in the industrial complex located in Gyeongsangnam-Do were selected. The questionnaire designed for the research consisted of working clothes distribution policies in manufacturing industry and the actual conditions of the design facts, repair and maintenance of the working clothes, etc. The analysis of the clothing construction factors of the working clothes provided by 5 respondent companies were conducted in parallel. The results derived from the study were as follows: The basic types of working clothes were the blouson jacket and straight pants; safety equipments for manufacture were safety helmets, gloves, snickers, goggles, masks, ear caps, wristlets, leggings, apron, etc. The size-charts adopted by the participant companies were the small-medium-large and cm/inch measurement size systems. To solve wearer's dissatisfaction with the garment fit, certain clothing construction factors were used, e.g. strap bands and the elastic band on a waist band. The types of fabrics used for the working clothes were mainly polyester/cotton and polyester/rayon blended ones. Moreover, to provide with more air permeability to wearers, the warp knit material was used to construct the lining and the armpit or back bodice slits. Lock, two-thread chain, safety, overedge stitches were applied with flat, lap felled, French, superimposed, lapped, bound and edge finishing seams to construct the working clothes selected.

TIG 용접은 고품질이고 용접인자의 제어가 쉽고 정확하다는 장점이 있지만, 얕은 용입과 낮은 생산성과 같은 단점이 있다. TIG 오비탈 용접에서는 용입의 한계 때문에 작은 루트면과 넓은 그루브를 가공하여 다층 용접을 하며, 루트패스에서는 파이프 진원도에 의한 핏업 시 단차의 문제가 자주 발생하여 많은 현장에서 루트갭을 만들어 수동 용접하는 실정이다. 따라서 생산성이 낮으며 생산 단가가 높고 용접 품질이 작업자에 따라 다르게 된다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하여 자동 오비탈 용접을 위해 단차를 흡수 할 수 있는 용접 공정 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 TIG 용접에서 단차에 따른 용접성을 검토하여 이를 맞대기 용접에 적용했을 때 균일한 이면비드를 얻는 공정을 개발하는 것이다. 따라서 본 연구는 아래보기 자세에서 단차에 따른 용입 특성을 이면비드 및 단면으로 비교 분석하였다. 단차 없이 아크길이만 1mm, 2mm, 3mm로 변경하여 실험한 결과 아크길이가 짧아질수록 표면비드 폭은 좁아졌고 이면비드 폭은 증가하는 경향을 나타내어 아크길이가 짧아질수록 용융효율이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 단차 1mm에서 아크길이 3mm를 제외하고 표면비드 및 이면비드가 미려하였다. 하지만 단차 2mm에서는 아크길이 1mm, 2mm, 3mm 전부 이면비드가 생성되지 않았다. 이는 단차로 인해 아크길이가 증가하여 용융효율이 낮아졌기 때문이라 판단된다. 이면비드가 생성되지 못한 시험편을 백 베벨링(0.5mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm)하여 실험한 결과 단차 2mm, 아크길이 1-3mm 백 베벨링 2.0mm 적용한 시험편에서 양호한 이면비드를 얻을 수 있었다.

In order to increase the production efficiency of the ship and shorten the production cycle, it is important to evaluate the accuracy of the ship components efficiently during the drying cycle. The accuracy control of the block is important for shortening the ship process, reducing the cost, and improving the accuracy of the ship. Some systems have been developed and used mainly in large shipyards, but in some cases, they are measured and managed using conventional measuring instruments such as tape measure and beam, optical instruments as optical equipment, In order to perform accuracy control, these tools and equipment as well as equipment for recording measurement data and paper drawings for measuring the measurement position are inevitably combined. The measured results are managed by the accuracy control system through manual input or recording device. In this case, the measurement result is influenced by the work environment and the skill level of the worker. Also, in the measurement result management side, there are a human error about the lack of the measurement result creation, the lack of the management sheet management, And costs are lost in terms of efficiency due to consumption. The purpose of this study is to improve the working environment in the existing accuracy management process by using the augmented reality technology to visualize the measurement information on the actual block and to obtain the measurement information And a smart management system based on augmented reality that can effectively manage the accuracy management data through interworking with measurement equipment. We confirmed the applicability of the proposed system to the accuracy control through the prototype implementation.
