It is expected that the global market for vessel repair and remodeling will grow up to the scale of about 25 billion dollars by 2023. Korea's shipbuilding industry is leading the world with its international competitiveness in design and production technology. The actual status of vessel repair industry, however, is poor as there are only two or three companies for vessel repair that can deal with large vessels in the area of Gyeongnam. The reason is that civil complaints are filed severely about environmental problems and environment-related regulations are so strict that it is fairly hard to get governmental approval for the operation of a vessel repair workplace. Domestic vessel repair companies mainly target small- and medium-sized vessels. There are only few workplaces that can carry out regular examination or repair work on large vessels such as LNG vessels, and due to the high price of vessel repair, most of the domestic repair work on large vessels including LNG vessels tends to be snatched by markets in Southeast Asia or China. Despite the tremendous domestic demand of Korea that has established the world's first shipbuilding industry and world's sixth biggest harbor infrastructure, its vessel repair industry can be said to be in very poor condition. In order to vitalize vessel repair industry, this study is aimed to analyze the environmental influence of vessel repair workplaces in Gyeongnam where vessel repair companies are concentrated and suggest standard processes by analyzing vessel repair processes precisely.

The passive safety systems (PSSs) within water-cooled reactors are meticulously engineered to function autonomously, requiring no external power source or manual intervention. They depend exclusively on inherent natural forces and the fundamental principles of reactor physics, such as gravity, natural convection, and phase changes, to manage, alleviate, and avert the release of radioactive materials into the environment during accident scenarios like a loss-of-coolant accident (LOCA). PSSs are already integrated into such operating commercial reactors as the Advanced Pressurized Reactor-1000 MWe (AP1000) and the Water-Water Energetic Reactor-1200 MWe (WWER-1200) are adopted in most of the upcoming small modular reactor (SMR) designs. Examples of water-cooled SMR PSSs are the passive emergency core-cooling system (ECCS), passive containment cooling system (PCCS), and passive decay-heat removal system, the designs of which vary based on reactor system-design requirements. However, understanding the accident-event progression and phases of a LOCA is pivotal for adopting a specific PSS for a new SMR design. This study covers the accident-event progression for direct vessel injection (DVI) small-break loss-of-coolant accident (SB-LOCA), associated physics phenomena, knowledge gaps, and important figures of merit (FOMs) that may need to be evaluated and assessed to validate thermal-hydraulics models with an available experimental dataset to support new SMR design and development.

Comparing with the large containment, the gas can not flow freely within the local compartment due to the small volume of the compartment in case of serious accident, which affects the hydrogen flow distribution, and it will determines the location where high concentration occurs in compartment. In this paper, hydrogen distribution and possible hydrogen risk in the vessel under the different conditions are investigated. The results show that when the initial gas momentum is increased, the ability of gas enters into the upper region of the vessel will be strengthened, and the hydrogen volume fraction in the upper region of the vessel is higher. Comparing with horizontal source direction, when source direction is vertically towards upper space, hydrogen is more likely to accumulate in the upper region of the vessel. With the increasing of steam mass flow, the dilution effect of steam on the hydrogen volume fraction will be strengthened, while the pressure in the vessel is also increased. When steam flow is decreased, the hydrogen explosion risk is higher in the vessel. The experiment data can provide technical support for the validation of the CFD software and the mitigation of hydrogen risk in the containment compartment.

This paper presents the finite element deformation and failure simulation of a typical Korean high-power reactor vessel under a severe accident characterized by large break loss of coolant (LBLOCA) with in-vessel retention of molten corium through external reactor vessel cooling (IVR-ERVC) conditions. Temperature distributions calculated using Modular Accident Analysis Program Version 5 (MAAP5) as thermal boundary conditions were used, and ABAQUS thermal and structural analyses were performed. After full ablation, the temperature of the inner surface in the thinnest section remained high (920 ℃), but the stress remained relatively low (less than 6 MPa). At the outer surface, the stress was as high as 250 MPa; however, the resulting plastic strain was small owing to the low temperature of 200 ℃. Variations in stress, inelastic strain, and temperature with time in the thinnest section suggest that the plastic and creep strains are saturated owing to stress relaxation, resulting in low cumulative damage. Thus, the lower head of the vessel can maintain its structural integrity under LBLOCA with IVR-ERVC conditions. The sensitivity analysis of internal pressure indicates the occurrence of failure in the thinnest section at an internal pressure >9.6 MPa via local necking followed by failure due to high stresses.

본 논문의 주 목적은 수치해석 도구를 활용하여 저항성능 관점에서 우수한 선형을 개발하는 것이다. 최종 개발된 선형의 성능 평가를 위해 수조 모형시험을 수행하였다. 현존선은 도면을 바탕으로 실물과 도면의 타당성 검토를 위해 실태조사를 수행하였다. 실태조사 시에 실제 운항 상태인 주 운항 배수량 및 주 운항 선속을 확인하였다. 수치해석을 바탕으로 현존선의 저항성능을 검토하였다. 개발선은 선수어깨의 파형개선, 배수량 분포의 균형화, 단면형상의 수정 그리고 중앙 스케그의 크기와 형상 변경에 관한 스터디를 통해 도출되었다. 수치해석 결과 개발선은 조파저항 개선에 의해 저항성능 관점에서 주 운항 선속인 11노트에서 약 15% 개선된 양을 보여주었다(Table 4 참조). 개발된 선형의 성능 평가를 위해서 수조 모형시험을 수행하였으며 그 결과 11노트에서 약 17% 개선된 양을 보여주었다(Table 5 참조).

A non-contact 6D motion tracking system is proposed. The system consists of two color cameras, a color image grabber and a host computer, Motions of a floating vessel was measured by the constructed system. The instantaneous forces of the floating vessel are analyzed. The floating vessel was put on the water in a small water container in free conditions. The measured forces are reconstructed by the measurement results. The system can be used to non-contact measurements for 6D dynamic analysis of floating vessels.

In the last 5 years, collisions of fishing vessels have recorded about 54.6% of the total marine accidents. Specially about 64.0% of these collisions were caused by navigator's negligence of watch keeping during works. The purpose of this paper is to develop vessel detecting system that is able to receive the whistle blast of other vessel and make a warning sound and light when the fishermen can not confirm the approaching another vessel on account of fishing works. It is designed to receive the whistle signal blast by a weather tight microphone. The signal is processed by analog active filter in order to enhance the SNR(Signal to noise ratio). And this microprocessor-based system is programmed to do ADC(Analog to digital converting), FFT analysis, controls of warning sound and light.

비소세포폐암의 술후 생존률의 향상을 위하여 1989년 1월부터 1995년 12월까지 고신대학교 복음병원 흉부외과에서 수술시행한 환자중에 술후 제1병기 비소세포폐암으로 진단된 68명의 환자를 대상으로 Kaplan-Meier 방법에 의해 5년 생존률을 구하고 임상 및 병리조직학적인자, 즉 연령, 성별, 수술방법, 조직학적 유형, T인자, 종양세포에 의한 혈관침습 유무, 그리고 전이 억제 유전자로 알려진 nm23 단백의 발현정도와 생존율과의 관계에 대한 분석을 시행하였다. 평균 생존기간은 58$\pm$3개월이었고 5년 생존률은 58.9%였다. 종양에 의한 혈관침습이 있는 경우와 저분화성 편평세포폐암인 경우에 예후가 불량한 것으로 나타났고, T1이 T2에 비해 또 nm23 단백의 발현은 고도발현 군이 저도발현 군에 비해 각각 5년 생존률이 높았으나 통계학적인 유의성은 없었다. T인자, 혈관침습, 편평세포암종에서 분화도, 그리고 nm23 단백의 발현들 상호간에 연관성도 없었다. 제1병기 비소세포폐암의 술후 예후인자는 종양세포에 의한 혈관침습과 편평세포 폐암종에서 종양세포의 분화도로 나타났고, nm23 단백 발현정도의 예후인자로서 역할에 대해서는 nm23 단백 발현 정도와 타 장기로의 전이와의 상관성 등 향후 추가적인 연구가 보완되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구는 최근 해양사고가 점차 증가하고 있는 10톤 미만 소형어선의 규칙파 중 운동응답 특성에 대하여 수치해석을 통하여 분석하였다. 10톤 미만의 소형선박들을 크기별로 구분하여 해양사고 분석에 이용되고 있기 때문에 본 연구에서도 서로 다른 크기의 소형어선 3척을 대상으로 운동응답 해석을 이행하였다. 선수파인 경우 장파장 영역에서 속력이 높아질수록 상하동요 및 종동요 응답도 커지고 있는 현상을 확인하였다. 가장 작은 3톤급 어선의 운동응답이 다른 크기의 어선보다 더 크게 나타나는 특성을 보여주었다. 선수사파 상태에서의 횡동요 운동은, 선박의 크기와 관계없이 점차 속력이 높아질수록 운동응답의 최대값이 장파장 영역으로 이동되는 특성을 확인할 수 있었다. 선수사파와 횡파에서 3척의 소형어선 모두 속력이 가장 높은 15노트에서 횡동요 운동이 가장 크게 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다. 선수파 및 선수사파를 받으면서 항행할 경우 속력을 낮추는 것이 종운동과 횡운동 영향을 감소시킬수 있는 방법이라고 보여진다. 횡파에 의한 횡동요는 속력 및 선박의 크기와 관계없이 특정 파장에서만 급격히 커지는 경향을 보여 주었다. 전진속력이 있을 경우 선수 사파에 비해서 선미사파에서의 확연한 횡동요 감소 현상을 확인할 수 있었다. 선박의 크기 및 속력에 따라 선체운동응답의 최대값이 나타나는 특정 영역이 있으므로 이 운동 영향을 최소화 시킬 수 있는 운항방법이 고려되어 실행되어야 한다.
